Download or read book Those who Can written by Joseph Shackford Johnston and published by Association of American Colleges & Universities. This book was released on 1989 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book synthesizes existing literature on teacher education and recommends an integrated program to prepare arts and sciences undergraduates for careers in teaching. The six chapters of Part I provide general principles while the four chapters of Part II offer specific recommendations for colleges and universities. After an introduction, Chapter 2 documents the nation's continuing inability to secure from among its teacher education graduates enough high quality teachers. Chapter 3 then proposes a primary national and institutional strategy to tap into the pool of students majoring in the arts and sciences. The review in Chapter 4 of what teachers need to know and be able to do reinforces the value of an arts and sciences background. Chapter 5 examines proposals that would bring liberal arts majors into teaching by placing teacher preparation on the graduate level. Chapter 6 considers the obstacles impeding the implementation of the integrated undergraduate programs recommended. Recommendations presented in Chapter 7 cover general education, the major area of study, supportive and administrative structures, inservice programs, and the role of state regulations. Chapter 8 offers recommendations to recruit and prepare minority teachers, and Chapter 9 summarizes the results of a recent survey of current practice in certification programs for arts and sciences majors. Finally, chapter 10 presents brief descriptions of 11 programs that have already undertaken the sort of innovations proposed. An appendix lists organizations and projects with such activities currently underway. Over 300 notes document references cited in the book. (SM)

Download or read book Prioritizing Skills Development for Student Employability written by Christiansen, Bryan and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2024-02-27 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the throes of a global skills gap and relentless labor market disruptions, organizations grapple with the pressing challenge of aligning workforce skills with the demands of a hypercompetitive economy. Reports from influential entities like the World Economic Forum and McKinsey & Company underscore the urgency for strategic interventions to bridge this divide. Despite the pivotal role of higher education and corporate training, recent findings from the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) reveal a persistent struggle in finding candidates equipped with the requisite skills for a multitude of available jobs. The deficiencies span from foundational communication skills to complex problem-solving abilities, posing a formidable hurdle for organizations seeking qualified talent. Prioritizing Skills Development for Student Employability emerges as a solution to the skills misalignment conundrum by delving into the heart of the issue, dissecting the intricacies of global workforce dynamics, education-industry collaborations, and the evolving landscape of corporate training. By exploring topics such as learning analytics, educational artificial intelligence (AI), and effective leadership in the context of present-day human resource management, the book provides a comprehensive roadmap for both academic scholars and professionals to navigate the complex terrain of skills development.
Download or read book The Real World of College written by Wendy Fischman and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2023-08-01 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why higher education in the United States has lost its way, and how universities and colleges can focus sharply on their core mission. For The Real World of College, Wendy Fischman and Howard Gardner analyzed in-depth interviews with more than 2,000 students, alumni, faculty, administrators, parents, trustees, and others, which were conducted at ten institutions ranging from highly selective liberal arts colleges to less-selective state schools. What they found challenged characterizations in the media: students are not preoccupied by political correctness, free speech, or even the cost of college. They are most concerned about their GPA and their resumes; they see jobs and earning potential as more important than learning. Many say they face mental health challenges, fear that they don’t belong, and feel a deep sense of alienation. Given this daily reality for students, has higher education lost its way? Fischman and Gardner contend that US universities and colleges must focus sharply on their core educational mission. Fischman and Gardner, both recognized authorities on education and learning, argue that higher education in the United States has lost sight of its principal reason for existing: not vocational training, not the provision of campus amenities, but to increase what Fischman and Gardner call “higher education capital”—to help students think well and broadly, express themselves clearly, explore new areas, and be open to possible transformations. Fischman and Gardner offer cogent recommendations for how every college can become a community of learners who are open to change as thinkers, citizens, and human beings.
