The resulting almost universal sense of loss…

Marshall, David W.; Jankowski, Natasha A.; Vaughan, Terry, III – National Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment, 2017
Tuning is a bottom-up, faculty-led process which leads to the creation of a discipline-specific learning outcome document along with a degree profile that is used to communicate the value of a particular degree to a variety of audiences including students, employers, policy makers, and the general public. Tuning, introduced in the United States in…
