Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study assessed online credit recovery programs' effectiveness in addressing "the Dropout Problem" in the United States, providing 1) a profile of school culture (behaviors) associated with successful online credit recovery programs, 2) a basis for needed student support and teacher training improvements. The effectiveness of online credit recovery programs and student contribution to society beyond high school graduation will be examined using a post- positivist quantitative approach. Schools that offer online credit recovery and the relationship with school culture and school retention is explored by following postsecondary school students to discern their contributions to society three years beyond their expected high school graduation date. These relationships are investigated through the analysis of data collected by the United States Department of Education High School Longitudinal Study (HSLS:09). Results provide a profile of school culture (behaviors) associated with successful online credit recovery programs, providing a basis for needed student support and teacher training improvements. The findings from this study indicate that students who attended schools that offered online credit recovery programs were higher societal contributors over the seven-year time span.

This book was released on 2016-08-02 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we help at-risk students who are failing in a traditional setting? That was the question I set out to answer when I attempted to do this research project. In order to gather the most accurate data, I narrowed my focus to college and university students. However, these same three success factors could be used to help at-risk students at the high school and middle school levels and any other organization that set out to help the at-risk students. The research data concluded that tutoring programs, mentoring programs, and financial aid programs are key components to assisting struggling at-risk students achieve and succeed in an academic setting. When at-risk students are given a little extra assistance, they tend to do well.
Download or read book Credit Recovery and High School Student Success written by Kelly D. Durr and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigated student perceptions of their experiences in high school credit recovery programs. Students enrolled in credit recovery programs in two Indiana high schools completed surveys about their perception of their experiences participating in a credit recovery program at their high school. For purposes of this study, student perceptions were based upon the levels of need as outlined by Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs (physiological needs, safety and security needs, love and belonging needs, self-esteem needs, self-actualization needs). Quantitative analysis was conducted using the survey results. Survey results were analyzed utilizing MANOVA, ANOVA, and correlation in order to seek significance of needs or correlation between student demographics and their perceptions (based upon need). Survey respondents also answered two open-ended questions regarding their perception of their credit recovery experience. The findings indicated that all of the needs are highly correlated with one another. Findings also indicated that there is statistical significance between some student demographics and their perceptions (based upon needs). Student open-ended responses indicated that students felt like the flexibility, support of their instructor, and atmosphere of the credit recovery program aided them in remaining in high school and ultimately graduating on time. These findings supported the research that students need to feel supported (emotionally and academically) when participating in dropout prevention programs. Given these results, further research needs to be undertaken to identify credit recovery programs which will provide students supportive adults, flexibility, and social and academic support while participating in credit recovery programs.
Download or read book The Impact of the Support Our Students SOS After School Program on the Achievement of Middle Grade Students at Risk of Academic Failure written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates the impact of an after-school intervention on student achievement. The study uses two-tailed t tests to compare the growth in actual scale scores achieved by two groups of students taking the North Carolina End of Grade (EOG) test from 1999 to 2001. It compares the scores of those who participated in the Support Our Students (SOS) program to the scores of nonparticipating students to determine the effect that the SOS program had on student performance on the EOG test. To conduct the research, I obtained assistance from Edstar Research in compiling a complete list of all students participating in the SOS program who were in sixth grade in 1998?1999 and who scored a level I or level II on their math/language arts EOG. The identifiers included were county, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, gender, and EOG scores for math and language arts for each of the 1998--1999, 1999--2000, and 2000--2001 school years. With the assistance of the North Carolina Education Data Center, I obtained a data set representing the stratified group of students who were level I or level II who did not participate in the SOS program. This study's findings are as follows: 1. Students who participated in the Support Our Students program for three years in middle school from the years 1998 to 2001 showed no significant difference in math or reading scores from those who did not participate in the program. 2. There was no significant difference in math or reading scores between participating and nonparticipating students in the minority subgroup. 3. There was no significant difference in math or reading scores between participating and nonparticipating students in the free or reduced-price lunch subgroup. 4. There was no significant difference in math or reading scores between participating and nonparticipating students in the male subgroup. 5. There was no significant difference in math or reading scores between participating and nonparticipating students in t.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author's abstract: When middle school students need to learn accountability and discipline to be successful in school, many parents, teachers and school administrators seek short-term solutions to stop inappropriate behavior. This mixed methods study was designed to determine the impact of one intervention used by many middle schools in Georgia, the Student Transition and Recovery (S.T.A.R.) program . The researcher found that the intervention, a military-style of discipline, did have a positive impact on student attendance, grades and discipline. The findings describe five major features of the intervention that contribute to its success. The study provides support for this type of intervention. The ultimate goal is to provide middle schools with an alternative intervention that keeps students in school while improving academics and discipline.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this dissertation was to produce knowledge on the academic performance and recovery success of students enrolled in a Recovery High School. The study site was Hope Academy, located in Indianapolis, IN, and at the time of this publication, one of just five schools in the U.S. accredited by the Association of Recovery Schools. Students enrolled between Fall 2010 and Spring 2017 were evaluated using academic test scores (NWEA-MAP), a measure of recovery success (GAIN-SS), as well as key informant interviews with 13 students and five staff members. It was concluded that recovery school students displayed similar levels of academic growth when compared to a nationallyrepresentative matched Virtual Comparison Group, t-stat = +0.849 (p=0.397). This finding provides evidence that even after experiencing a relapse, recovery school students were capable of achieving similar levels of academic growth as their peers not in recovery from substance use disorders. Interview participants provided more context to the quantitative findings with first-hand accounts of the impact the recovery school had on students.
