Eavesdropping on a conference about improving learning in liberal education

Last October the Teagle Foundation and the Spencer Foundation sponsored a conference called How Can Student Learning Best Be Advanced? Achieving Systematic Improvement in Liberal Education. A number of items from the conference, including podcasts from several sessions, reports about the conference in various publications, and transcripts of some of the presentations are on Teagle's website. On the podcasts you can hear such luminaries as Derek Bok, George Kuh, Judith Eaton (president of the Council for Higher Education Accreditation), Peter Ewell, and Carol Geary Schneider (president of AAC&U).
