Inside Higher Ed. I have this delivered to my inbox each morning, it allows me to get a quick glimpse of the latest info and news, perhaps even trends that I need to be aware of in regards to all things related to higher ed. It also has some insightful blogs from many different perspectives.
I am always looking for new assessment methods--the College of Business uses a pre-test/post-test for the majority of assessment practices; although we have three faculty currently who are moving well beyond that and using some really interesting methodology in utilizing qualitative data this semester. Here is one resource I found through Inside Higher Ed in regards to a qualitative instrument for assessment. LINK

Thank you for posting this link. Campus or program assessment efforts often focus heavily upon standardized survey instruments which often do not deliver a complete picture of overall institutional performance in enhancing student learning. Qualitative techniques such as interviews and focus groups can help supplement assessment efforts creating a mix of quantitative and qualitative methods.
