This book was released on 2013 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Black student-athletes have been criticized for lacking appropriate study and social skills to be successful in a rigorous collegiate environment. At the secondary school level, it is not uncommon for college-bound high performing Black male athletes to lose out on National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I scholarship opportunities due to incomplete fulfillment of NCAA Clearinghouse A thru G required college courses and standardized test score requirements. Elevated performances and accomplishments in athletics confirm that Black male student-athletes are fully capable of maintaining high levels of intrinsic and external motivation, exhibited through their willingness to work long hours, commitment, and drive to succeed in athletics. Thus, Black male student-athletes' intrinsic and external zeal for athletics is not commonly mirrored in their academic achievement. Guided by Critical Race Theory framework, this retrospective qualitative study employed 20 open-ended interviews to gain understanding of possible systemic educational barriers "NCAA college-bound" athletes may face at the secondary school level. Findings concluded high school student-athletes possess minimal understanding of NCAA Eligibility Clearinghouse academic expectations and/or standardized test requirements. Counselors were named as most common school representative responsible for high school student-athletes' college counseling and academic advisement. Coaches were named as the school representative most trusted for student-athlete academic decisions. Recommendations to implement effective and organized high school student-athlete college preparation programs which should include: (a) organized, mandatory study hall for high school student-athletes, (b) assignment of an academic counselor to specifically work with the student-athlete population, and (c) implementation of mandatory student-athlete bi-weekly progress reports requested by athletic leadership from student-athletes teachers.

Download or read book The Collegiate Athlete at Risk written by Morris R. Council (III) and published by Information Age Publishing. This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are numerous books documenting the challenges of student athletes and presenting recommendations for academic success. They primarily focus on understanding the issues of student-athletes and recommendations are oftentimes overly simplistic, failing to explicitly provide interventions that can be executed by student-athlete support personnel. In addition, the topic of supporting student-athletes who are academically at risk and/or are diagnosed with high incidence disabilities has been overlooked by scholars resulting in few publications specifically focusing on providing strategies to the staff/personnel who serve these populations. The general target audience is college/university practitioners who interface with student-athletes who demonstrate academic and social risk in the realm of athletics. These stakeholders include but are not limited to: academic support staff, student athletes, parents, coaches, faculty/educators, counselors, psychologists, higher education administrators, student affairs professionals, disability services coordinators/personnel, as well as researchers who focus on education leadership, sports, and special education. All of these groups are likely to find this book attractive especially as they work with student-athletes who are at-risk for academic failure. Also, it is ventured that this book will become the staple text for the National Association of Academic Advisors (N4A), the official organization for all personnel who work in collegiate academic support and can be used by members of intercollegiate athletic associations to reform policies in place to support at-risk student-athletes.

Download or read book An Exploration of Factors Affecting Student Persistence Into Athletic Training Education Programs written by Heather Hartsell and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was designed to examine the factors that contribute to student persistence into athletic training education programs (ATEPs). The researcher also gauged prospective athletic training students' perceptions on experiences that contributed to their decision to either apply or not apply to ATEPs. -- Invited study participants included all freshmen prospective athletic training students who were enrolled in the Athletic Training Introductory course/s at three participating CAATE-accredited ATEPs with a secondary admissions process occurring in the fall. Contact persons from each ATEP were e-mailed a study introduction letter and asked to e-mail a student letter with a survey link to students in introductory course/s. The researcher merged two retention theories and developed a survey to gather data with regards to how program attributes, social, academic, clinical integration, and program commitment affect student persistence. Additionally, the survey included demographic items. The researcher also conducted semi-structured interviews with contact persons from each ATEP and gathered institution demographics, program demographics, and program attributes. Mann Whitney U tests were conducted to determine if differences among group responses existed. Spearman Rho correlation analyses were utilized to determine relationships between each independent variable (i.e., academic, social, clinical integration, program attributes, and program commitment) and each group (i.e., persisters and non-persisters). Establishing correlation significance allowed for the application of Binary Logistic Regression analysis to seek predictive variables. All qualitative responses provided in the survey data were coded utilizing an interpretive method of data coding. Overall descriptive statistics were computed on all survey items. -- With the results of this study, it was established that both a difference and relationship existed between each group and student persistence with Mann Whitney U and Spearman Rho correlations demonstrating significant results. Binary Logistic regression analysis did not yield predictive variables. The greatest correlation existed between program commitment and persistence. These findings suggested that strong program commitment is more influential in persistence than other variables. Qualitative results revealed that persisters and non-persisters manage the pre-application period differently, resulting in either persistence or non-persistence. Additionally, the rapport between athletes and athletic trainers serving as preceptors, the relationships between prospective athletic training students and athletic training students, and the mentorship displayed by athletic training students were all contributors to persistence.

Book excerpt: College student-athletes are a unique sub-population on university campuses. The concerns and experiences of these student have been well document (Watson, 2006). However, little is known about how counselors are supporting them. This Narrative Inquiry study explored the narrative experiences of six counselors who work with college student-athletes at the NCAA Division I level. Data was collected through three rounds of in-depth interviews with each participant and focused on four areas: (1) education and preparation; (2) clinical strategies and interventions; (3) interactions with athletic administrators and professional collaboration; and (4) professional identity development. Data was then analyzed through the co-construction of narrative accounts. These narrative accounts contained thematic narratives that offer a glimpse into the storied experiences of counselors who work with college student-athletes. Finally, this study offers implications for counselor education, clinical practice, advocacy, and future research.
