Individualized Education: Reading Courses at New College - 1971-72.
Hofeller, Margaret A.; Dean, Marina L.
This document presents an evaluation of the readings course program at New College at Hofstra University. Under this program, students divise an independent study project under the supervision of the faculty member. Readings courses may range from conventional readings and research to field work or the production of creative works. The student's option to elect a readings course is subject to the availability of faculty resources and to the student's preparation for the proposed project. In general, the readings course program at New College does appear to be serving its intended purpose in that students seem to be electing such courses as optional means of exploring new problem areas. Those students who do plan readings courses tend to be in good academic standing and to complete the courses they begin. (Author/HS)
