Download or read book Demographics and the Demand for Higher Education written by Nathan D. Grawe and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The economics of American higher education are driven by one key factor--the availability of students willing to pay tuition--and many related factors that determine what schools they attend. By digging into the data, economist Nathan Grawe has created probability models for predicting college attendance. What he sees are alarming events on the horizon that every college and university needs to understand. Overall, he spots demographic patterns that are tilting the US population toward the Hispanic southwest. Moreover, since 2007, fertility rates have fallen by 12 percent. Higher education analysts recognize the destabilizing potential of these trends. However, existing work fails to adjust headcounts for college attendance probabilities and makes no systematic attempt to distinguish demand by institution type. This book analyzes demand forecasts by institution type and rank, disaggregating by demographic groups. Its findings often contradict the dominant narrative: while many schools face painful contractions, demand for elite schools is expected to grow by 15+ percent. Geographic and racial profiles will shift only slightly--and attendance by Asians, not Hispanics, will grow most. Grawe also use the model to consider possible changes in institutional recruitment strategies and government policies. These "what if" analyses show that even aggressive innovation is unlikely to overcome trends toward larger gaps across racial, family income, and parent education groups. Aimed at administrators and trustees with responsibility for decisions ranging from admissions to student support to tenure practices to facilities construction, this book offers data to inform decision-making--decisions that will determine institutional success in meeting demographic challenges"--

Download or read book Education Reform and Education Policy in East Asia written by Ka-ho Mok and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-06-28 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book assesses the impact of globalization on the education systems of key East Asian countries, including China, Hong Kong, Japan, and the "tiger economies" of South Korea, Taiwan and Singapore, examining how the increasingly interdependent economic system has driven policy change and education reform. It discusses how policy makers have responded to changes required in educational outcomes in order to equip their societies for new global conditions and explores the impact of new approaches and ideologies related to globalization, such as marketization, privatization, governance changes, managerialism, economic rationalism and neo-liberalism, making comparisons across the region. Based upon in-depth research, fieldwork, literature analysis, policy document analysis and personal reflections of academics serving in the education sector, this volume recounts heated debates about the pros and cons of education restructuring in East Asia. The discussions on national responses and coping strategies in this volume offer highly relevant insights on how globalization has resulted in restructuring and draws lessons from comparative public policy analysis and comparative education studies.

Download or read book Examining Comprehensive School Reform written by Daniel K. Aladjem and published by The Urban Insitute. This book was released on 2006 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban school reformers for decades have tried to improve educational outcomes for underserved and disadvantaged students, with the assistance of constantly evolving federal and state policies. In recent years, education policies have shifted from targeting individual students to developing universal standards for teaching and learning, and comprehensive school reform (CSR) has emerged as an effective key model. The federal CSR program seeks to support the implementation of comprehensive school reform, especially in high-poverty schools, and to improve efforts to help all children meet challenging academic standards. Schools that receive federal CSR funds must adopt approaches that comply with the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB). This book provides a series of studies and reflections on CSR by leading experts in the field.
Download or read book Non Detention System In School Education written by M.N. Jyothi and published by Discovery Publishing House. This book was released on 2003 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Government of Andhra Pradesh has introduced the non-detention system, a system of automatic promotion, at the school level realising that education is best imparted in an atmosphere of free progress where the incentive and urge to improve spring from within the educational process rather than from the terror of examination and detentions. Under this system, the students will be automatically promoted to the next class provided they put in a stipulated percentage of attendance. However, there will be two common/public examinations during the school career, one at the end of the upper primary stage and the other at the end of the secondary stage. This non-detention system evoked a mixed reaction from the educational elite. A study, hence, was conducted to evaluate the non-detention system and the results of the study are quite interesting. This research monograph on non-detention system will be great use to the educational planners, administrators, researcher and teachers.
