Book excerpt: College Aspirations and Access in Working Class Rural Communities: The Mixed Signals, Challenges, and New Language First-Generation Students Encounter explores how a working class, rural environment influences rural students’ opportunities to pursue higher education and engage in the college choice process. Based on a case study with accounts from rural high school students and counselors, this book examines how these communities perceive higher education and what challenges arise for both rural students and counselors.

Book excerpt: Career aspirations reflect the individual social desires.By conducting a questionnaire survey among a group of Chinese students, this study explores career aspirations of Chinese college students and examines the link between socio-economic background and career aspirations, as well as the link between campus experience and career aspirations.It is found that students from better-off socio-economic backgrounds, whose parents have higher educational attainment, higher occupational status and higher income, tend to have higher aspirations towards their future career. Students who focus more on academic study and are more satisfied with their campus environment and available academic resources also tend to have higher career aspirations. Significant predictors of career aspirations were also found in this study. Mother's educational attainment and occupation turn out to be the most important variables in socio-economic background, predicting both students' desired occupation and salary. Students' time spent studying, together with their degree of satisfaction with academic resources are essential campus experience variables, predicting both students' desired occupation and salary.

Download or read book School Effectiveness and School Improvement written by Louise Stoll and published by Institute of Education. This book was released on 1995 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last decade has seen a burgeoning of interest in the twin fields of school effectiveness and school improvement by politicians, policy makers and practitioners. For some, the drive has been to raise standards and increase accountability through inspection and assessment measures, believing that the incentive of accountability and market competition will lead to improvement. Alternatively, reform and restructuring have led many people in schools to create their own agenda and ask, ‘How do we know that what we are doing makes a positive difference to our pupils?’ and, ‘What can we do to provide pupils with the best possible education?’ This paper explores the two paradigms that underpin notions of school effectiveness and school improvement. We start with their definitions and aims. Key factors of effectiveness and improvement are examined and fundamental issues discussed. We conclude with a description of attempts to link the two areas of work.
Download or read book The Science of College written by Patricia S. Herzog and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book aids entering college students - and the people who support college students - in navigating college successfully. In an environment of information overload, where bad advice abounds, this book offers readers practical tips and guidance. The up-to-date recommendations in this book are based upon real students, sound social science research, and the collective experiences of faculty, lecturers, advisors, and student support staff. The central thesis of the book is that the transition to adulthood is a complex process, and college is pivotal to this experience. This book seeks to help young people navigate the college process. The student stories in this book highlight how the challenges that college students can encounter vary in important ways based on demographics and social backgrounds. Despite these varied backgrounds, getting invested in the community is crucial for college success, for all students. Universities have many resources available, but students need to learn when to access which resources and how best to engage with people serving students through different roles and with distinct expertise. There is no single template for student success. Yet, this book highlights common issues that many students face and provides science-based advice for how to navigate college. Each chapter is geared toward college students with a focus on the life stage that many entering college students are in: emerging adulthood. In addition to the student-focused chapters, the book includes an appendix for parents and for academics, along with supplemental website materials of instructional activities related to the content of the book."--
