| Summary: | Since its establishment with a 1986 grant from the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education, the Assessment Resource Center (ARC) at the University of Tennessee has worked with state coordinating boards, other institutions involved in assessment leadership, institutions seeking guidance, and participants in conferences and seminars given by the ARC. The Center accomplished its objectives of establishing working relationships with numerous institutions, preparing printed materials, sponsoring workshops, and developing a consortium of experienced assessment practitioners. In addition, Center personnel founded a national publication, planned an international seminar, and supported a cross-national study of assessment in higher education. This final report outlines the project's background and purpose, summarizes project impact, and documents plans for continuation and dissemination. Appendices, which comprise the bulk of the report, include: (1) an overview of the ARC; (2) an annotated bibliography of 12 items on assessment and a list of 23 representative assessment programs; (3) research on the College Outcome Measures Project, with an 11-item annotated bibliography; (4) title pages and tables of contents of ARC publications; (5) resource appendices from "Performance and Judgment: Essays on Principles and Practice in the Assessment of College Student Learning" edited by Clifford Adelman, containing an annotated bibliography of approximately 75 items and reviews of 22 assessment instruments.
