| Abstract | Two papers on developments toward consumerism in higher education are included. In "Alternatives to Federal Regulation of Consumer Information," by Joan S. Stark and Patrick T. Terenzini, several questions are posed for considering alternative systems to help students obtain and use information for college choice: (1) Can meaningful information guidelines be developed? (2) Will institutions cooperate in following them? and (3) Can a workable consumer assistance system be developed? Project CHOICE (Center for Helping Organizations Improve Choice in Education) is described, and the concept of Educational Information Centers, funded by the federal government, is outlined. In the second paper, "Consumerism in the Classroom: The Nebraska Experiment," Eugene P. Trani describes a program in six Nebraska universities and colleges entitled "Helping Students Become More Sophisticated Consumers of Their Own Education." The major component of the project is a course in learning analysis, intended to help students become more knowledgeable and analytical about their own learning reactions. The course is outlined, and some resulting experiences are noted. It is proposed that this project will not only assist students in getting the most out of their education, but will also encourage and assist in teaching improvement. (MSE) |
