California community colleges may offer common assessments in 2010
The Chronicle of Higher Education reports that California community colleges will be encouraged to offer a common assessment in mathematics and English for incoming students starting in the fall of 2010, according to the system's chancellor, Jack Scott. The system's 110 campuses have long offered dozens of incompatible assessment tests, which Mr. Scott said had wasted money, muddied transfer pathways to universities, and made it more difficult for students to move from one community college to another.
