In this two-part report, part one reviews the value of 360-degree feedback for educational institutions - why and how this may promote cross-national research. Part two offers a case study of research at Fordham University, examining a shift in student attitudes after the opening in 2016 of a new half-billion dollar Law School building in New York City.«Как студенты воспринимают и оценивают свой собственный университет?». Поиск ответа на этот важный, но неоднозначный вопрос дает прекрасную возможность для кросс-национальных исследований. В первой части данной статьи рассматриваются преимущества использования процедуры «360 градусов» для оценки образовательных учреждений: почему и как это может способствовать проведению кросс-национальных исследований. Во второй части представлено описание исследования, проведенного в Университете Фордхем, с целью выявить изменения в отношениях студентов-юристов к своему университету после открытия в 2016 г. нового здания юридического факультета в центре Нью-Йорка стоимостью полмиллиарда долларов.360-degree feedbackcross-nationalsatisfactionhigher educationlaw studentsattitudesпроцедура оценки «360 градусов»кросс-национальные исследованияудовлетворенностьвысшее образованиеуниверситетстуденты-юристысоциальные уста-новки1.American Bar Association.
