Abstract | More adults are enrolling in colleges and universities using prior experience to earn college credits. Supporters say the portfolio programs are rigorous and encourage pursuit of degrees. Critics say the practice dilutes the significance of a college degree, and students do not study the theories behind concepts or question their own assumptions. (MSE) |
