目的——本研究的目的是建立一个客观的数学决策程序，帮助大学在追求短期、中期和长期的可持续发展目标时，使用高等教育可持续发展协会 (AASHE) 开发的可持续发展跟踪、评估和评级系统 (STARS) 框架，确定学分的优先级。作者使用加州多米尼加大学 (DUofC) 的评估数据作为我们的案例研究。设计/方法/途径——制定了两个标准，即可用分数的数量和整体优先级，将 STARS 1.2 版框架中的学分从难度从最低到最高分为六组。还建立了两种数学学分选择模型，该模型基于每个学分的可用积分、部分或全部金额，以制定短期、中期和长期计划。调查结果 – 我们的结果表明，通过努力，DUofC 可以在三年内达到白银级水平...
Purpose – The purpose of this study was to establish an objective mathematical decision-making procedure to help universities prioritize credits, while using the Sustainability Tracking, Assessment and Rating System (STARS) framework developed by the Association for Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE), when pursuing their sustainability goals in the short-, medium- and long-term. The authors used the assessment data from Dominican University of California (DUofC), as our case study. Design/methodology/approach – Two criteria, the number of possible points available and overall priority, were developed to classify credits in the STARS version 1.2 framework into six groups from lowest to highest level of difficulty. Two mathematical credit-selecting models based on how many points were available per credit, partial or full amount, were also established to produce short-, medium- and long-term plans. Findings – Our results show that DUofC can reach the Silver level in three years by wor...
