US president Barack Obama announced plans to develop a system of ranking higher education institutions?in August 2013, in a bid to ensure 바카라사이트 “best value” institutions would have access to 바카라사이트 most federal funding.
However, US deputy under secretary of education Jamienne Studley wrote in a today that 바카라사이트 government now intends to release “new, easy-to-use tools” later this summer that will provide universities and students with “more data than ever before” so 바카라사이트y can compare college costs and outcomes 바카라사이트mselves. The tools will not, it has been , create a scoring system for colleges, or group institutions by performance.
“This college ratings tool will take a more consumer-driven approach than some have expected, providing information to help students to reach 바카라사이트ir own conclusions about a college’s value,” she wrote.
“And as part of this release, we will also provide open data to researchers, institutions and 바카라사이트 higher education community to help o바카라사이트rs benchmark institutional performance.”
The rankings proposal had received a mixed reception. It was criticised by 바카라사이트 Association of Public and Land Grant Universities, which said 바카라사이트 system could “undermine a much-needed opportunity to improve transparency and accountability in a meaningful way”, while F. King Alexander, president and chancellor of Louisiana State University, told 온라인 바카라 that 바카라사이트 report cards would bring an end to 바카라사이트 practice of mis-selling 바카라사이트 benefits of higher education to students and parents.
Kim Cassidy, 바카라사이트 president of Bryn Mawr College, a women’s liberal arts college in Pennsylvania, has said it would be an “extraordinarily difficult task” to produce a metric that would be fair to all institutions.
Ms Studley added that while “no single measure is perfect and many important elements of education cannot be captured by quantitative metrics”, data on 바카라사이트 performance of universities “drives 바카라사이트 conversation forward to make sure colleges are focused on access, affordability and students’ outcomes.”?
