Bobbi Kamil: Demonstrating learning
Description
Dr Bobbi Kamil was Associate Dean at State University of New York, Empire State College, when it was founded in 1971. Together with the founding team, she was instrumental in establishing the vision for the college to provide adult learners with the opportunity to earn a degree by having their prior learning taken into consideration and creating their own degrees.
In this episode we explore the beginnings of that work and the role portfolios played for both faculty and students.
