I applaud this initiative 100%. It ensures students receive the proper placement in courses based on their current skill level, and it also helps instructors maintain the standards and expectations established in their course designs. I also appreciate the careful thought and transparency administrators have used in justifying its benefits to Kirkwood, as illustrated by this slideshow.
