The College of Metaphysical Studies understands itself as a responsible learning community. The faculty regards evaluation and accountability as a part of the relationship that exists between faculty and students. The faculty assumes that you are self-motivated, have the desire and maturity to receive meaningful information about your progress, and will take responsibility for your own growth in relation to the class work. There are many means by which accountability is demonstrated in a responsible learning community. These may be verbal, visual, or written.
Accountability applies to both faculty and students.
Faculty members have the responsibility for communicating what is to be learned, its purpose, and the goals to be achieved. Student accountability may take the form of oral reports, written reports and papers, action projects, or examinations. Those who are dedicated to learning seek and welcome information at every opportunity about their progress. That kind of information is indispensable in mastering a subject or skill. An open-book examination is included in most courses.
