ASSESSING LEARNING (EDU-232032)

Online Learning Home > Online Learning Catalog > Educational Studies >

Course Description:


This eight-week course is intended to help students explore the concept of "learning," especially as it relates to both academic and experiential learning. Students will investigate what we mean by college level learning, the different ways that such learning might be demonstrated, what specific learning they want to demonstrate for credit and how to pursue a credit request for their learning. This course will be especially important for students who plan on doing a substantial amount of credit by evaluation, but it will also be appropriate as a more general investigation of learning for any student pursuing a degree with Empire State College.

Students planning to use financial aid: Students taking courses that are shorter than the standard term (at least 15 weeks in length) may have their federal loans reduced and/or state aid reduced or cancelled. Please visit our Web site at www.esc.edu/FinancialServices for more information.

Note: this course is open to all students. Center for Distance Learning students taking this course for educational planning credit should obtain mentor/advisor permission. This course can be used towards CDL Educational Planning.
