The First Year Seminar Volume V cover

Friedman, a recognized expert on seminar administration and assessment, provides a comprehensive framework for deciding what to assess, what kinds of data to collect and from whom, and how to use findings for continuous program refinement and improvement. The volume is a useful tool for administrators launching a new seminar or managing a decades old course. While centered on the first-year seminar, Friedman’s suggested strategies can be applied to a wide range of educational experiences in the first college year and beyond.

“What type of method should I use? How do I collect and analyze the data? Once I have the information, what do I do with it? And then what? Friedman thoroughly outlines the answers to these questions. While focused on first-year seminars, the guidance offered in this volume could be applied to a variety of programs, courses, and fields.” — NACADA Journal
