This year's report has been redesigned to improve its readability. This document is a small sampling of the 2003 Performance Report. This issue demonstrates the kind of useful information available to students, parents, legislators and other policy makers, as well as campus faculty and staff. Information includes: (1) Existence of growing educational opportunities; (2) High-quality programs; (3) How degree attainment helps graduates and the states; (4) R&D and workforce training=economic development; (5) Incoming students who are unprepared for college; (6) Student retention, degree completion and time-to-degree completion; and (7) State funding is low, yet tuition is high.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fifth annual Performance Report for Ohio's Colleges and Universities uses a variety of data and data sources to describe higher education in Ohio from students' academic preparation to learning environments, student progress, degree achievement, and licensure and employment outcomes. The report also provides a wealth of information about research and job-training activities as well as basic financial information about costs, state support, and financial aid provided to students. This year's Performance Report includes new outcomes measures related to college-level course taking by high school students, transfer outcomes, and need-based and merit-based financial aid awards. The sections comprise the Performance Report for 2005 as follows: Section One summarizes outcomes at the statewide and sector levels and includes comparisons to national benchmarks when such benchmarks are available; Section Two presents the mission statements of the community and technical college sectors and individual mission statements for each public university; and Section Three presents brief statistical profiles of Ohio's public and private higher education institutions. Data analysts, members of the media, local policy makers, and legislative staff will find the data in the institutional detail report valuable to learn more about specific campuses and how a specific campus's data compare to sector or state data.

Download or read book The Performance Report for Ohio s Colleges and Universities 2006 written by Ohio Board of Regents, Columbus and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like previous reports, the seventh annual "Performance Report for Ohio's Colleges and Universities" uses a variety of data and data sources to describe higher education in Ohio, from student academic preparation to learning environments, student progress, degree achievement, and licensure/employment outcomes. The report also provides information about research and job-training activities, and basic financial information about costs, state support and financial aid provided to students. The report is published in two documents: a summary of state-wide and sector-level information and a supporting document containing outcomes measures for individual higher education institutions. Significant findings indicate that: (1) Ohio has made progress in increasing higher educational attainment and research activity, but continues to lag behind other states and the national average; (2) Enrollment in higher education is increasing and the student body reflects the diversity of the Ohio population; (3) Thirty-seven percent of first-time freshmen in public institutions require remedial courses in their first year of college; (4) A high proportion of students attend more than one institution during their academic career and transfer students graduate at lower rates than non-transfer students, indicating that the transfer process is not seamless; (5) Although a majority of students who begin college are successful, there is room for improvement in the areas of retention, degree completion and time-to-degree; (6) Ohio has been graduating more students over the past five years and growth in graduate earnings is high, but in-state retention has decreased slightly over prior years; (7) Ohio's public higher education institutions operate efficiently compared to the rest of the United States; and (8) Tuition fees tend to be high in Ohio, but can be offset by financial aid to those who qualify. (Contains 15 figures and 32 tables.).

Book The Capacity of Ohio s State Funded Colleges and Universities

Download or read book The Capacity of Ohio s State Funded Colleges and Universities written by Ohio Board of Regents, Columbus and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ohio, as across the nation generally, states are challenged to serve more students, conduct more research, and train more workers with less state support. State policymakers and members of the media often question whether Ohio is over-invested in its higher education facilities. In response to these concerns, and to better understand Ohio's ability to meet current and projected educational needs of the state, Regents staff worked with representatives of Ohio's public colleges and universities to prepare this first-ever study of the capacity of state-funded colleges and universities to serve Ohio's students. The goal of the study is to evaluate the capacity of Ohio's higher education facilities to meet current and future needs. By providing state decision makers and citizens with this information, it is hoped that the report will clarify misunderstandings that may exist and contribute to the decision making process that governs the allocation of state capital resources. Three qualifications defined the scope of this study: (1) The study reports on four categories of space (Classrooms; Classroom Labs; Offices; Residence Halls); (1) Only credit activity is measured in the classroom and classroom lab capacity calculations (References to the number of students enrolled include only those students involved in courses taken for degree credit); and (3) Study includes only those facilities that are owned by the institution (Leased space is not included in the analysis.) Major study findings include: (1) At the state level, Ohio's public higher education system was operating almost at capacity in Fiscal Year 2003; (2) There is a serious shortage of classroom, lab, and office space that is in good condition; and (3) Ohio has a large bloc of aging facilities that present campuses with a number of issues (including challenging health and safety issues) that need to be addressed in the near future. The report recommends that campuses and universities be encouraged to reinvest in aging facilities or replace aging facilities with new facilities, but that major state capital investments will be required to address these issues. Two appendixes are included: (1) Calculations and Assumptions; and (1) Other Studies. (Contains 13 footnotes, 2 figures, and 7 tables.).

Book Funding Public Colleges and Universities for Performance

Download or read book Funding Public Colleges and Universities for Performance written by Joseph C. Burke and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first comprehensive study of performance funding of public colleges and universities, which directly ties some state allocations to institutional results on designated indicators. The book examines performance funding as a national phenomenon, identifying the champions and critics of the program, the arguments for and against its adoption, the most common performance measures used for funding, the characteristics that separate stable from unstable initiatives, and the inherent possibilities and problems.The authors include case studies of performance funding in Tennessee, Missouri, Florida, Ohio, and South Carolina, and explore the reasons why Arkansas, Colorado, Kentucky, and Minnesota first adopted and later abandoned their programs. They examine problems with performance funding, such as the reluctance of the academic community to agree on reasonable goals for undergraduate education or the failure to apply performance funding to the academic departments that are mostly responsible for institutional results on many of the performance indicators.

Book Reporting Higher Education Results  Missing Links in the Performance Chain

Download or read book Reporting Higher Education Results Missing Links in the Performance Chain written by Joseph C. Burke and published by Jossey-Bass. This book was released on 2003-03-07 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performance reporting--publishing information on the results of higher education at the state, system, and institutional levels--is said to have the potential to enhance external accountability, improve institutional performance, further state needs, and possibly even increase state funding. But are campus administrators and public officials actually using these reports? Does performance reporting really lead to these kinds of outcomes? No study has ever tested the effectiveness of performance reporting--until now. This issue explores the origins and development of performance reporting, examines the attitudes of state and campus leaders, and discusses how these reports are--or are not--being put to use. Burke and Minassians begin by tracing the rise of performance reporting amidst the demands for increased accountability in higher education in the late 80s and early 90s. They examine the formats, coverage, and content of performance reports--with a particular emphasis on how well suited they are to the needs of their end users in government and on campus--and discuss how reporting indicators are selected and what the selection process tells us about policymakers' goals, values, and models for excellence for public colleges and universities. The authors then look at what state and campus officials think about performance reports and how they actually use them. Burke and Minassians analyze the opinions of a geographically diverse group of governor's aides, legislative chairs of education committees, higher education finance officers, and campus institutional researchers about the use, effects and future of performance reporting, and about the importance and appropriateness of the indicators most commonly used in performance reports. Finally, the authors discuss reasons why performance reporting does not yet seem to be having the strong positive impact envisioned by it's supporters, and they make recommendations about how to best use and improve performance information. This is the 116th issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for Institutional Research.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "First Condition Report" provided policymakers and the general public a snapshot of where Ohio stands in providing the higher education services needed to be competitive in today's world. The "Second Report" focused on facilities and technology. The "Third Report" underscores the need to deliver high quality education to more Ohioans within existing resources. In this report, the Regents ask: "How can Ohio graduate more students with a high quality education that prepares them for careers along with intellectual opportunities that equip them for a better future?" They answer this question by assessing Ohio's: (1) Streamlined Paths to Degrees; (2) College Affordability; (3) Readiness for College and Work; (4) Effective Management of Educational Programs; and (5) Efficient Management of Administrative Services. Information from the past three years was measured in these areas: (1) Educational Attainment; (2) Financial Condition of Colleges and Universities; and (3) Workforce and Research Contributions of Higher Education. Eight questions form the core of The Condition Report. Appended are: (1) Background for Financial Ratios; and (2) Student Surveys for Two and Four Year Institutions. (Contains 16 tables and 18 endnotes.) [For the first report, see ED505003. For the second report, see ED504910.].

Book Performance Funding for Higher Education  What Are the Mechanisms  What Are the Impacts

Download or read book Performance Funding for Higher Education What Are the Mechanisms What Are the Impacts written by Kevin J. Dougherty and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-06-19 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After first appearing in 1979 in Tennessee, performance funding for higher education went on to be adopted by another 26 states. This monograph reviews research on a multitude of states to address these questions: • What impacts does performance funding have on institutional practices and, ultimately, student outcomes? • What obstacles and unintended effects do performance funding encounter? This monograph finds considerable impacts on institutional practices, weak impacts on student outcomes, substantial obstacles, and sizable unintended impacts. Given this, the monograph closes with a discussion of the implications for future research and for public policymaking on performance funding. This is the 2nd issue of the 39th volume of the Jossey-Bass series ASHE Higher Education Report. Each monograph is the definitive analysis of a tough higher education issue, based on thorough research of pertinent literature and institutional experiences. Topics are identified by a national survey. Noted practitioners and scholars are then commissioned to write the reports, with experts providing critical reviews of each manuscript before publication.
