"Inside Higher Ed" Audio Conference

Inside Higher Ed Audio Conference - Learning from Failures

In an era of increased pressure to produce more college graduates, some institutions are gaining a better understanding of their challenges and adopting new policies by examining the classes where the greatest numbers of students fail.

On July 29 at Noon Eastern, Inside Higher Ed presents “Learning from Failures,” a one-hour audio conference featuring Kay M. McClenney, director of the Community College Survey of Student Engagement. Ms. McClenney will discuss the kinds of questions to ask about courses with high failure rates and the kinds of policy changes and practices that some colleges have adopted based on the answers.
