PUB TYPE Guides Non-Classroom (055) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *College Curriculum; *College Instruction; Education Courses; Foreign Countries; *General Education; Higher Education; Institutional Evaluation; Program Implementation; *Self Evaluation (Groups) IDENTIFIERS *Quebec ABSTRACT This report provides a guide for evaluation of the implementation of the general education component of programs of studies in Quebec. The college education reform of 1993 has had a particularly strong impact on the general education component of education programs. To gauge the scope of changes made to general education and of efforts made to ensure implementation of the core component, the Commission d'evaluation de l'enseignement collegial has asked the Quebec college system to use this specific guide, which contains the information needed to aid the institutions in the self-evaluation process. Evaluation issues include access to quality general education, joint efforts in implementing general education, and effectiveness of general education implementation and academic success. Colleges are asked to use eleven sub-criteria. The sub-criteria are grouped to enable colleges to assess the implementation of pedagogical aspects, resources and management, and results. Clearly defined learning activities are consistent with the determined standards and objectives. Teacher competence and motivation are maintained and developed through research or professional development activities.

For many CSPB members, this represents a shift from teaching to intensive research, for others the time to get the field trials completed, and for everyone, this is confer- ence season. Our AGM this year will be big as we join up with two other societies, our much larger sister society, the American Society of Plant Biologists (ASPB), and the International Society of Photosynthesis Research. Plant Biology 2018 will be held from July 14-18 at the Palais des congrès de Montréal. This con- ference has been in the planning stages for several years. Anja Geitmann and I, as part of the Scientific Planning Committee, have been meeting with our ASPB and ISPR counterparts since September 2016 to organize the scientific program. Last year, we welcomed François Ouellet from the Université de Québec à Montréal, who, together with Anja, is busy planning the local events associated with this large conference. At Plant Biology 2018, you can look forward to plenary talks in five major symposia covering ranslationalT Science, Cell and Developmental Biology, Innovative Technologies, the Ecophysiology of Photosynthesis, and Mechanisms of Genome Evolution, plus an awards symposium on Sunday that will feature our 2017 CD Nelson Award winner, Marcus Samuel.
