| Summary or Abstract
|
:
|
After illustrating the need for a supplemental approach to evaluating institutions of higher learning in an accountability context, this dissertation presents a new evaluation methodology termed contextual evaluation . This procedure identifies a few strategic state-level goals, establishes them as performance indicators, and utilizes a structural equation model (SEM), here termed a contextual analysis , in an input-process-outcome format to estimate an expected level of performance for each goal. This expected level of performance---which is unique for each institution---is then contrasted with an institution's actual level of performance for the purposes of evaluation..
