Accountability In Higher Education
Submitted by Lance T. Izumi, J.D. on 8.20.2002
At the end of August, California will release school-wide student scores on the state’s standardized tests. While not a perfect tool, testing has been the key component in the state’s K-through-12 accountability system and has spurred improvement efforts in many low-performing public schools. Since improving the public schools is a means to increasing access for all California students to colleges and universities, the time may be ripe to expand accountability to higher education.
