Developing and Assessing Personal and Social Responsibility in College. New Directions for Higher Education, Number 164 - Robert Reason D.

Книга "Developing and Assessing Personal and Social Responsibility in College. New Directions for Higher Education, Number 164" исследует тему развития личной и социальной ответственности студентов в высшем образовании. В книге описывается инициатива Core Commitments Initiative, запущенная Ассоциацией колледжей и университетов США в 2007 году, которая фокусировалась на личной и социальной ответственности как результате получения высшего образования. Инициатива предполагала, что такой подход вернет американское высшее образование к его историческому назначению - подготовке активных и вовлеченных граждан. В книге исследуются и практика, и исследования, связанные с развитием личной и социальной ответственности в колледже, на основе данных, полученных от учреждений, участвующих в инициативе Core Commitments. Книга также предоставляет примеры хорошей практики на уровне программ и институционального уровня. Эта книга адресована президентам, вице-президентам, деканам и другим лицам, принимающим решения в области высшего образования на всех типах кампусов, и предоставляет своевременную информацию и авторитетные советы по основным вопросам и проблемам, стоящим перед каждым учреждением.

In November 2010, My Postdoctoral Publications was launched as part of my own transitioning into a new academic position. The manuscript published as "Perils and Promises of Adopting a Community Engagement Hippie Move." This manuscript was accepted for publication in a postdoctoral researcher publications in Cambridge, Massachusetts. I am excited not only to be contributing to that journal, but because I was allowed to edit this article prior to accept it for print. I intend to use the opportunity to further shape my thoughts on the topic and I live very much looking forward to how this exact edited form will shape the one that readers will receive when it arrives at scientists' fingers.

Описание книги от Robert Reason D.

In 2007, wanting to expand higher education’s civic engagement conversation, the Association of American Colleges and Universities launched the Core Commitments Initiative. That initiative focused attention on personal and social responsibility as outcomes of a college education, with the understanding that such a focus would return American higher education to its historical purpose of preparing active and engaged citizens. Expanding the conversation this way leaves room for behavioral measures, like voting or hours spent in community service, but also opens our understanding of citizenship to include issues of civic identity, civic attitudes, personal integrity, and ethics. This volume explores the research and practice related to the development of personal and social responsibility in college, drawing data directly from institutions that were part of the Core Commitments Initiative and providing instructive examples of good practice at both the programmatic and institutional levels. This volume is the 164th volume of the Jossey-Bass quarterly report series New Directions for Higher Education. Addressed to presidents, vice presidents, deans, and other higher education decision makers on all kinds of campuses, it provides timely information and authoritative advice about major issues and administrative problems confronting every institution.
