Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.

Download or read book Course Experience Questionnaire 2000 written by and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the views of graduates from Australian universities regarding the courses that they completed. It focuses specifically on graduates who completed their courses of study in 1999 but also references cohorts of previous graduates. The data are taken from the Course Experience Questionnaire (CEQ) that was administered during 2000 as part of the 2000 Graduate Destination Survey (GDS) to 50,455 respondents. This report focuses on the responses of bachelor graduates to the items relating to the Good Teaching Scale and the Overall Satisfaction item. Nationally, 68 percent of the graduates expressed agreement with the statement ' Overall I was satisfied with the quality of this course'. There has been a small but steady increase in this level of agreement since 1993. In 2000, 90 percent of bachelor degree graduates were 'broadly satisfied' with the overall quality of their courses, up from 86 percent in 1993. The level of 'broad satisfaction' with good teaching in 2000 was 77 percent, an increase from 72 percent in 1995. Over the period from 1993 to 2000 the mean percentage agreement on the Clear Goals and Standards scale has risen from 44 to 51 percent and the level of 'broad satisfaction' has increased from 77 to 82 percent. In the Appropriate Assessment scale the mean percentage agreement declined from 63 to 57 percent and 'broad satisfaction' declined from 87 to 84 percent. It could be inferred from this trend that there has been a shift in assessment in higher education towards factual content and knowledge rather than thinking skills. There has been very little change between 1993 and 2000 in the mean percentage agreement on the Appropriate Workload scale. The variations in results seem to come less from characteristics of the graduates and more from factors relating to age, different fields of study and different universities. [Executive summary, ed]

Download or read book Promoting the Educational Success of Children and Youth Learning English written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2017-08-25 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Educating dual language learners (DLLs) and English learners (ELs) effectively is a national challenge with consequences both for individuals and for American society. Despite their linguistic, cognitive, and social potential, many ELsâ€"who account for more than 9 percent of enrollment in grades K-12 in U.S. schoolsâ€"are struggling to meet the requirements for academic success, and their prospects for success in postsecondary education and in the workforce are jeopardized as a result. Promoting the Educational Success of Children and Youth Learning English: Promising Futures examines how evidence based on research relevant to the development of DLLs/ELs from birth to age 21 can inform education and health policies and related practices that can result in better educational outcomes. This report makes recommendations for policy, practice, and research and data collection focused on addressing the challenges in caring for and educating DLLs/ELs from birth to grade 12.
