Assessment Reading

If you are trying to gain conceptual knowledge, I suggest the following:

Using Evidence of Student Learning to Improve Higher Education by Kuh, Ikenberry, Jankowski, Cain, Ewell, Hutchings, and Kinzie

Degrees That Matter - Moving Higher Education to Learning Systems Paradigm by Jankowski and Marshall

Reframing Academic Leadership by Bolman and Gallos

You could also check out the NILOA site (National Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment). They have some great resources.
