مستخلص: The purpose of this report is to profile a selection of emerging approaches to judging quality in higher education that represent a range of stakeholder interests and perspectives. This report is divided into three sections. "Quality Assurance at a Crossroads" highlights perceived challenges for the U.S. accreditation system in a shifting higher education landscape and why this topic is of critical importance. "New Models for Judging Quality in Higher Education" features new approaches that have emerged as potential complements to or replacements for the existing system of accreditation. First models that are currently in practice or that include detailed proposals for implementation are described, and then other noteworthy proposals under development are summarized. Lastly, "Comparative Data Sets and National Rankings as Forms of Quality Review" addresses the potential for comparative data sets to serve as a form of quality review.
