688.20237 A Brief Introduction to Self Directed Learning
This 3-page undergraduate paper briefly describes the concept of self directed learning, or SDL, as a largely useful, and certainly wide-spread method of instructing employees. This paper defines SDL primarily as method of learning which tends to stress employee impetus in developing education goals, methods, and evaluations for themselves, rather than making employees rely on more formal and structured educational measures. SDL involves a flexible process or set of processed in which learners identify goals and resources, implement chosen learning processes, and evaluate their progress. SDL can occur in contexts of team work, individual work, or instructor-individual interaction, depending upon the needs of the learner, and the learner?s readiness for SDL. The process offers several advantages, including flexibility and employee empowerment in learning, as well as increased cost-effectiveness for the employer. This paper also argues that SDL can also engage with all three types of learning - instrumental, dialogic, and self reflective - outlined by Marizow (1981), thus creating a powerful and multi-faceted learning experience.

690.20337 Educational Evaluation Model
Education evaluation must be accomplished to not only ensure that the methods employed are effective educators, but also to help develop new and/or advanced educational programs. With the increased use of alternative forms of education, such as online learning, these evaluations become evermore crucial. The question then becomes which evaluation model to utilize to garner the quality of information needed to make decisions on the effectiveness and efficiency of the currently implemented programs, as well as what items should be altered for future programs. As the six classifications developed by Worthen and and Sanders (1987) of education evaluation models differ greatly, each has its own unique advantages and disadvantages in utilizing them for a specific evaluation. The question then becomes, which is most appropriate for a given situation.

693.20495 A Brief Consideration of the Value of a College Education
This paper considers the value of a college education by considering some of the issues concerning the value of college education. This paper broadly argues that a college experience is valuable because higher education offers not only specialized knowledge, but also a number of resources and experiences which allow a student to develop both professionally and personally. This paper further enumerates the specific personal and professional benefits which a college education offers its students and graduates. In this context, this paper considers critical thinking, university and college offices and programs, as well as other characteristics of higher education.
This paper notes that colleges and universities push students to learn within a specific field, and encourage students from all over the world as well as professional leaders to participate in this experience. This convergence of personalities allows students to become familiar with interacting within difference and allows them to gain information from professors who conduct current research in their chosen fields. Both the sensitivity to multiculturalism and the knowledge of current developments in a field allows students to develop professionally and as individuals. Further, the wide range of activities and resources which universities and colleges offer - such as newspapers, radio stations, foreign exchange and travel programs, employment offices, archives, libraries, computer labs, and extracurricular activities and clubs - provide a wealth of experiences and services which are literally not available elsewhere in such a concentrated place. Students can access services free of charge and can take part in experiences which can shape personal growth and professional success. Further, some services as well as the reputation of a school can affect student occupation and performance later in life, potentially giving graduates specific advantages. However many value-rich resources and experiences higher education offers, however, students must themselves commit to making their college or university experiences positive and productive. For those students who actively strive to derive a wealth of knowledge and experience from their education, the college experience may provide them immense life-long value in career opportunities, earning power, and personal satisfaction and growth.
