Download or read book Handbook of Research on Advancing Critical Thinking in Higher Education written by Wisdom, Sherrie and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of critical thinking has surged as academics in higher education realize that many students, upon entering college, lack the critical thinking skills necessary to succeed. While much has been written regarding the ‘lack’ of critical thinking, less has been written on the success of methods implemented to develop this fundamental skill. The Handbook of Research on Advancing Critical Thinking in Higher Education explores the effective methods and tools being used to integrate the development of critical thinking skills in both undergraduate and graduate studies. Due to the difficulties associated with teaching critical thinking skills to learners of any age, this publication is a crucial addition to the scholarly reference works available to pre-service and early career teachers, seasoned educational professionals, professors across disciplines, curriculum specialists, and educational administrators.

Download or read book Intercollegiate Athletics and the American University written by James J. Duderstadt and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2009-04-21 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After decades of domination on campus, college sports' supremacy has begun to weaken. "Enough, already!" detractors cry. College is about learning, not chasing a ball around to the whir of TV cameras. In Intercollegiate Athletics and the American University James Duderstadt agrees, taking the view that the increased commercialization of intercollegiate athletics endangers our universities and their primary goal, academics. Calling it a "corrosive example of entertainment culture" during an interview with ESPN's Bob Ley, Duderstadt suggested that college basketball, for example, "imposes on the university an alien set of values, a culture that really is not conducive to the educational mission of university." Duderstadt is part of a growing controversy. Recently, as reported in The New York Times, an alliance between university professors and college boards of trustees formed in reaction to the growth of college sports; it's the first organization with enough clout to challenge the culture of big-time university athletics. This book is certainly part of that challenge, and is sure to influence this debate today and in the years to come. James J. Duderstadt is President Emeritus and University Professor of Science and Engineering, University of Michigan.
Download or read book Faculty Attitudes Toward Intercollegiate Athletics at Colleges and Universities Belonging to Division I of the National Collegiate Athletic Association and the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics written by Gilbert Quinton Norman and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 820 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to compare the attitudes of faculty at: (1) Division I NCAA and NAIA institutions, (2) Division I and II NAIA institutions on selected issues related to intercollegiate athletics, and (3) Division I NCAA and NAIA institutions toward selected issues related to intercollegiate athletics when demographics variables are considered. The survey instrument included forty statements and used a five-point Likert scale with possible responses of strongly agree, agree, undecided, disagree and strongly disagree. The population was resident, full-time faculty members. The sample was selected from the population using random techniques. The survey instrument which included demographic information, was sent to the selected faculty from the NCAA Division I (N = 656) and the NAIA (N = 632). The problem was to determine if there were significant differences between the attitudes of the faculties. Hypothesis I stated there was a significant difference between the NCAA Division I and NAIA faculty in their attitudes toward intercollegiate athletics. Hypothesis II stated there was a significant difference between the NAIA Division I and II faculty members in their attitudes toward intercollegiate athletics. Hypothesis III stated there was a significant difference between NCAA Division I and NAIA faculty in their attitudes toward intercollegiate athletics when demographic information is concerned. The statistical test used was Chi-Square with a.05 alpha level. NCAA Division I faculty were more critical of intercollegiate athletics than NAIA faculty on most issues. They were more suspicious about the academic integrity of student athletes and the progress of gender equity. Both NCAA Division I and NAIA faculties were in agreement that intercollegiate athletics is valuable to student athletes and their institutions. There was little difference between the attitude of NAIA Division I and NAIA Division II faculty members. The main conclusion was that there is a significant difference between NCAA Division I and NAIA faculty attitudes. The faculty at NCAA institutions tended to be more critical of intercollegiate athletics.
