Educational Research & Evaluation (ERE)

Educational Research & Evaluation

Alverno College’s Educational Research and Evaluation department studies and evaluates student learning, progress, development, and performance. We work with faculty, staff, and administrators to examine program- and institution-wide student learning outcomes for both the purposes of continuous improvement and demonstrating accountability. Our collaborative focus in leveraging curriculum-embedded assessments reinforces a sustainable and dynamic assessment system. Our scholarly contribution to educational research, which engages a wide range of theories and practices, reinforces an educationally meaningful approach to program evaluation.  

  • Go to Educational Research and Evaluation at Alverno College for more on our studies, services, staff, approaches, and conceptual frameworks for research and evaluation. 
  • Go to the Alverno College IRB website if you need an ethical review of proposed research that falls under the jurisdiction of Alverno’s Institutional Review Board. 
  • The Research and Evaluation Council advises on and engages in research and evaluation objectives in relation to college-wide goals. The Chair of the REC also oversees recommendations for institutional approval for research proposed by investigators external to Alverno when that research involves Alverno facilities, and for Alverno affiliated participants.
