The primary purpose of this booklet is departmental self-study, undertaken at the request of the institution or of the department. When done with good will, a review initiated by a department for its own use brings department members together for constructive talk about their work. For these reasons the authors of "Checklist" view self-study as essential to maintaining and improving the quality of the English departments and their programs. Thousands of college and university administrators, department chairs, and teachers have found this manual an essential and inexpensive guide to self-assessment.
This useful booklet contains:
A Checklist for Departmental Self-Study
A Guide for External Reviewers
and three appendixes:
ADE Guidelines for Class Size and Workload
Statement on the Use of Part-Time Faculty
Statement on the Use of Outside Reviewers
