4.  The opening Graduate Orientation has been restructured to offer graduate students input into their program from the outset.  The input has been systematically used across the last four years to reshape course offerings, to restructure times and formats in which courses are offered and to make more practical the theoretical underpinnings of the program.  In the summer of 2002 we offered  twenty-one courses in formats more accessible to the full-time classroom teacher.  As well we reshaped Fall/Winter course offerings. Each course in each of the masters degrees in curriculum and instruction is under revision.  In response to the student identified lack of multicultural preparation course, we have created  CURR 654, Multicultural Teaching and Learning.  The entire Masters in Middle Level has been rewritten for the second time in six years to reflect more classroom-based needs as new knowledge sheds light on the teaching and learning process. 
 
            We have a newly-constructed exit survey, which will make more systematic program completers’ responses to the quality of the program and overall assessment. To date this information has been anecdotal and although valuable, not systematically  examined.  Now with the exit survey, all four degree programs will benefit from the assessment.
