James, Peter, Dear
Drs. Noreen and Peter Facione,
"I
want to tell you how much I enjoyed the workshop yesterday. I've been
to numerous ones of that sort, and this one was far and away the best.
I'd sort of dreaded having to sit for 2 1/2 hours, but the time flew.
Both content and presentation were stimulating and sensitive to audience...
I've already begun implementing the 12-second rule, with gratifying
results..."
"It was great having you! There was wonderful engagement and excellent
feedback from your session..., and I believe you set a tone which makes
all of this [accreditation / assessment] something that faculty see as
positive, stimulating, and necessary for our students."
Chairmen B. Sperling Provost and VPAA Middlesex Community College "From
the buzz around here, it seems that the critical thinking workshops were
an impetus to discussion; the feedback is overwhelming enthusiastic. Thank
you for providing such a fruitful forum for learning."
Dr. Julia C. Torquati Assistant Professor University of Nebraska, Lincoln "Thanks, Steve. I appreciate your help with info on the CCTST . By the way, we are very pleased with all the service and support were receiving from Insight. It is a very pleasant improvement over our experience with some other test vendors. "Kirkwood, William G.l Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs Executive Director, Office of Planning and Analysis East Tennessee State University "We
thoroughly enjoyed the critical thinking workshop that you put on for
us. Your manner of presentation made it fun. We liked how you modeled
different teaching methods that encourage critical thinking. Actually,
you made teaching for critical thinking look like it might be within
the reach of ordinary mortals. Thank you for your contribution to our
faculty development efforts." "On
behalf of the West Texas A&M University Division of Nursing Faculty,
I would like to sincerely thank you for the excellent presentation on
critical thinking. Not only was your knowledge extensive on the subject
but you enhanced it by sharing your caring and humanistic attitude."
Dr. Sharon M. Weaver Chair Faculty Development West Texas A&M "The response to your visit at UDM among our faculty has been very enthusiastic and we look forward to being able to build on the discussions we had when you were here. As we develop our approach to critical thinking and its assessment, please do not be surprised if we invite you back." Dr. W. J. Lowe, Dean of Arts and Sciences University of Detroit Mercy "The
comments from the faculty were very favorable and several stated that
more time is needed to further develop the ideas generated. I hope that
in the future you will be able to return and discuss more of your energizing
ideas..."
Dr. Bonnie L. Saucier Associate Dean for Undergraduate Nursing University of Texas Health Sciences Center at San Antonio "Thanks again for helping Student Development with its work on outcomes...The response has been very positive. I think you helped us get over the hump." Jim Briggs, Vice President for Student Affairs Santa Clara University "Thank you so very very much. All files arrived in great shape and I can open them without any problems. I really appreciate this. I just have to say - we have used the California tools here since 1992 and have always hand scored them. I am so glad we have now switched. Whether I have ordered tools, or had questions, or called about CapScore, you have ALWAYS [Sic] been available and had answers for me. I am very impressed with the service your company provides. I am a very satisfied customer." Carol E. Larson Undergraduate Program Director School of Nursing, Mankato State University "The California Critical Thinking Skills Test moves the field of critical thinking assessment forward. The CCTST is an excellent teaching and learning tool, including when used with think aloud protocol." Dr. Jo Anne Carter-Wells Professor of Reading California State University, Fullerton "The California Academic Press is right up to date and very efficient. I highly recommend them." Fred Cole Psychometric Service Office Wayne State University "The CCTST is preferable to other critical thinking tests available because of the parallel test forms which are particularly suitable for pre- and post-testing." Dr. Gloria Rogers Dean for Academic Services Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology |
