The Chronicle of Higher Education

Recommended Reading: Article in Chronicle on Measuring Learning

By O'Neal Spicer. Posted on October 20, 2016

Dan Barrett’s piece over the weekend in The Chronicle, “The Next Great Hope for Measuring Learning,” deserves a close read. He describes in some detail a ground up effort by faculty and administrators across several institutions to define and measure what it is that students are learning and why it’s important. In doing so, these […]

A Moment of Clarity on the Role of Technology in Teaching

By Phil Hill. Posted on April 25, 2016

This following excerpt is based on a post first published at The Chronicle of Higher Education. With all of the discussion around the role of online education for traditional colleges and universities, over the past month we have seen reminders that key concerns are about people and pedagogy, not technology. And we can thank two […]

We Need a More Robust Learning Sciences Research Community

By Michael Feldstein. Posted on April 11, 2016

My latest Chronicle column is on how inherently difficult it is to evaluate learning science claims, particularly when they get boiled down to marketing claims about product efficacy, and how deep academic distrust of vendors makes this already incredibly difficult challenge nearly impossible. Here’s where I stand on vendor participation in ed tech and learning science research: […]

By Phil Hill. Posted on March 28, 2016

An edited version of this post was first published at The Chronicle of Higher Education Let’s admit it, there can be some real tension when a college is faced with choosing a new learning-management system, or any software used by more than one department. Since the decision involves the administrators who will support the system […]

By Phil Hill. Posted on February 19, 2016

I was planning to write a descriptive post about the new UNC Learning Technology Commons, but there is already some excellent coverage. UNC’s Matthew Rascoff wrote a blog post on Medium that captures the basics quite well: A compelling recent report from EDUCAUSE proposes that the “Next Generation Digital Learning Environment” will be based on a “‘Lego’ approach,” […]

Empowering Students in Open Research

By Michael Feldstein. Posted on February 2, 2016

Phil and I will be writing a twice-monthly column for the Chronicle’s new Re:Learning section. In my inaugural column, “Muy Loco Parentis,” I write about how schools make data privacy decisions on behalf of the students that the students wouldn’t make for themselves, and that may even be net harmful for the students. In contrast […]

Student Course Evaluations and Impact on Active Learning

By Phil Hill. Posted on November 30, 2015

The Chronicle has an article out today, “Can the Student Course Evaluation Be Redeemed?”, that rightly points out how student course evaluations are often counter-productive to improving teaching and learning. The article refers to a Stanford professor’s call for an instructor completed “inventory of the research-based teaching practices they use”, but most of the article centers […]
