This book was released on 2024-09-17 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In academic-business partnerships, many challenges plague both sides of the equation. From navigating complex power dynamics to ensuring ethical conduct, managing risk, and fostering trust, these collaborations often seem to walk a tightrope without a safety net. The critical actors involved, such as university leaders, corporate executives, and government policymakers, often struggle to strike the delicate balance required for success. It is a world where mishaps are as common as best practices, and the potential for growth and innovation remains untapped due to these hurdles. The Role of Leaders and Actors in Academy-Business Partnerships: Issues of Risk, Trust, Power, Ethics, and Cooperation emerge as the guiding light in this labyrinthine journey. This book does not just highlight the issues; it presents concrete solutions. By offering a comprehensive exploration of the roles and responsibilities of key players, from university presidents to corporate executives, it equips readers with the knowledge and tools needed to navigate the intricate dynamics of these partnerships successfully. With real-world examples of best practices and the cautionary tales of the "dark side of leadership," this book empowers academic scholars and corporate leaders alike to make informed decisions and forge collaborations that truly benefit both sides.
Download or read book Partnership Motives and Ethics in Corporate Investment in Higher Education written by Clevenger, Morgan R. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-06-25 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The roles that corporate social responsibility (CSR) and business support of democracy play in American higher education are infrequently discussed, though very important. There are many ethical issues that concern both corporate interests as well as higher education, linking the two more than many would think. It is necessary to understand the environment, inter-organizational relationships, and documents holistically to observe the rich history, pluralistic American societal issues, and relevant milestones between corporate America and higher education. Partnership Motives and Ethics in Corporate Investment in Higher Education provides comprehensive documentation of business and corporate entanglements with higher education. This work discusses the historic journey of funding from business and U.S. corporate engagement in American higher education. Covering topics such as academy-business relationships, philanthropic partnerships, and transactional partnerships, this work is essential for professors, executives, managers, faculty, fundraisers, leaders in higher education, researchers, students, and academicians with interests in CSR, business ethics, and higher education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Based on in-depth ethnographic research in formal and informal educational spaces, The Politics of Asian American Invisibility, argues that Hmong American youth are rendered invisible by dominant racial discourses and current educational policies and practices. We illustrate the way Hmong American students are erased by the Black and White racial paradigm and the Asian American panethnic category that perpetuates the model minority stereotype. Furthermore, we argue that current educational policies around English learners marginalize Hmong youth. Far from being passive or silent victims, Hmong American communities are actively resisting their invisibility through various forms of educational advocacy and through community-based education. The Politics of Asian American Invisibility highlights one group's struggle for educational justice"--

Download or read book Inequality in the Promised Land written by R. L’Heureux Lewis-McCoy and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2014-06-25 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nestled in neighborhoods of varying degrees of affluence, suburban public schools are typically better resourced than their inner-city peers and known for their extracurricular offerings and college preparatory programs. Despite the glowing opportunities that many families associate with suburban schooling, accessing a district's resources is not always straightforward, particularly for black and poorer families. Moving beyond class- and race-based explanations, Inequality in the Promised Land focuses on the everyday interactions between parents, students, teachers, and school administrators in order to understand why resources seldom trickle down to a district's racial and economic minorities. Rolling Acres Public Schools (RAPS) is one of the many well-appointed suburban school districts across the United States that has become increasingly racially and economically diverse over the last forty years. Expanding on Charles Tilly's model of relational analysis and drawing on 100 in-depth interviews as well participant observation and archival research, R. L'Heureux Lewis-McCoy examines the pathways of resources in RAPS. He discovers that—due to structural factors, social and class positions, and past experiences—resources are not valued equally among families and, even when deemed valuable, financial factors and issues of opportunity hoarding often prevent certain RAPS families from accessing that resource. In addition to its fresh and incisive insights into educational inequality, this groundbreaking book also presents valuable policy-orientated solutions for administrators, teachers, activists, and politicians.
Download or read book Minority Serving Institutions written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2019-02-05 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are over 20 million young people of color in the United States whose representation in STEM education pathways and in the STEM workforce is still far below their numbers in the general population. Their participation could help re-establish the United States' preeminence in STEM innovation and productivity, while also increasing the number of well-educated STEM workers. There are nearly 700 minority-serving institutions (MSIs) that provide pathways to STEM educational success and workforce readiness for millions of students of colorâ€"and do so in a mission-driven and intentional manner. They vary substantially in their origins, missions, student demographics, and levels of institutional selectivity. But in general, their service to the nation provides a gateway to higher education and the workforce, particularly for underrepresented students of color and those from low-income and first-generation to college backgrounds. The challenge for the nation is how to capitalize on the unique strengths and attributes of these institutions and to equip them with the resources, exceptional faculty talent, and vital infrastructure needed to educate and train an increasingly critical portion of current and future generations of scientists, engineers, and health professionals. Minority Serving Institutions examines the nation's MSIs and identifies promising programs and effective strategies that have the highest potential return on investment for the nation by increasing the quantity and quality MSI STEM graduates. This study also provides critical information and perspective about the importance of MSIs to other stakeholders in the nation's system of higher education and the organizations that support them.
