ABSTRACTS.–.Symposia Acoustic.guitars.of.a.common.design.were.constructed.using.these. tops.by.students.in.a.shop.practice.class..Finished.guitars.were.first. assessed. for. subjective. sound. qualities,. then. for. FFT. analysis. of. body.resonances.(main.air,.main.top,.and.main.back)..Univariate. linear. regression. was. performed. among. candidate. input,. output,. and.intermediate.variables..Correlations.were.found.between.tops’. shake-tone.strength.and.tap-tone.strength.(R 2 .=.0.34),.shake-tone. strength.and.guitar.sound.complexity.(R 2 .=.0.32),.tap-tone.strength. and.guitar.sound.complexity.(R 2 .=.0.14),.and.main.top.and.main.air. frequency.(R 2 .=.0.57).. This. pilot. study. demonstrates. that. relationships. may. exist. between.an.isolated.guitar.top’s.tone.properties.and.the.sound.quality.of.the.finished.guitar..Future.work.will.develop.the.reliability. of.subjective.measures,.assess.additional.material.and.component. properties,.and.develop.a.multiple-regression.model.

McKeachie.and.Seldin.(POD,.2006).reported.that.over.85%.of. American.universities.and.colleges.use.standardized.student.course. evaluations.(SCEs).as.the.primary.means.of.evaluation.of.faculty.. Yet.as.Seymour.(and.others).found,.traditional.student.course.evaluation.instruments.are.inaccurate.as.indicators.of.students’.learning.gains.and.ineffective.in.soliciting.useful.feedback..(Seymour,. 2005).. 88 Now.there.is.an.alternative:.the.SALG..This.free,.online.course. evaluation.system.focuses.not.on.teacher.behaviors,.but.on.learning. outcomes..It.promotes.pedagogical.innovation.and.development.by. encouraging.reflection.on.learning.goals.and.suggesting.pedagogical.strategies.to.meet.those.goals..Instructors.are.encouraged.to.tailor.their.assessment.instruments.to.their.classroom.pedagogies.and. to.measure.students’.learning.gains.relative.to.their.specific.learning. goals..The. SALG. embeds. current. research. on. how. people. learn,. and.extensive.testing.shows.that.the.results.are.valid.and.reliable..
