The First-Year Seminar
Designing, Implementing, and Assessing Courses to Support Student Learning and Success

The First-Year Seminar: Designing, Implementing, and Assessing Courses to Support Student Learning and Success, a five-volume series, is designed to assist educators who are interested in launching a first-year seminar or revamping an existing program. Each volume examines a different aspect of first-year seminar design or administration and offers suggestions for practice grounded in research on the seminar, the literature on teaching and learning, and campus-based examples. Because national survey research suggests that the seminar exists in a variety of forms on college campuses -- and that some campuses combine one or more of these forms to create a hybrid seminar -- the series offers a framework for decision making rather than a blueprint for course design.

The series includes:
Volume I: Designing and Administering the Course
Volume II: Instructor Training and Development
Volume III: Teaching in the First-Year Seminar
Volume IV: Using Peers in the Classroom
Volume V: Assessing the First-Year Seminar

Editors/Authors:
Volume I: Jennifer R. Keup & Joni Webb Petschauer
Volume II: James E. Groccia & Mary Stuart Hunter
Volume III: Brad Garner
Volume IV: Jennifer A. Latino & Michelle L. Ashcraft
Volume V: Daniel B. Friedman
