Theses, Dissertations and Capstones
This study examined if there were significant differences among K-12 teachers at low-income and high-income schools on their perceptions of various aspects of e-learning due to COVID-19. The study also sought to collect data concerning how teachers’ perceptions of technology may have changed, what factors impacted their ability to conduct e-learning, and what factors most impacted their students’ performance during e-learning due to COVID-19. A concurrent nested mixed-methods design was used. A 15-item self-report survey containing both Likert scale and open-ended questions was developed by the researcher to assess differences in teachers’ perceptions. Findings indicated a statistically significant difference in …

The immediate concern was how to successfully modify or adapt a high school model to be appropriate for students who were still learning to read and …
Corequisite Mathematics: A Program Analysis At The College Level, Shannon Miller-Mace
Corequisite Mathematics: A Program Analysis At The College Level, Shannon Miller-Mace
Theses, Dissertations and Capstones
Many incoming college freshmen who do not meet minimum standardized exam cut-score requirements are often determined to be not ready for college-level coursework and registered for pre-requisite, multi-semester, remedial course sequences. The goal of pre-requisite courses is to prepare students for college-level courses prior to enrollment in college-level classes. However, based on multiple studies, traditional, pre-requisite developmental education has become a barrier to student success. In contrast, the co-requisite instructional model enrolls students into their college-level, credit-bearing course in their first semester on a college campus, improving the likelihood of success in those courses and beyond. The purpose of this …
Incorporating Experiential Learning Into The Accounting Curriculum: Best Practices And Lessons Learned From A Recently Implemented Curriculum, Timothy G. Bryan
Incorporating Experiential Learning Into The Accounting Curriculum: Best Practices And Lessons Learned From A Recently Implemented Curriculum, Timothy G. Bryan
Faculty Submissions
This paper offers best practices for implementing an experiential learning component into an accounting curriculum in order to provide multiple experiential learning opportunities that are “for credit.” Sometimes employers may not be able to provide internship opportunities to students, or students may not be able to dedicate the required amount of time to obtain an internship in accounting. Recognizing this reality, we recommend implementing an on-campus alternative that would provide students the experiential learning opportunity they need through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Program (VITA) for course credit. For students transitioning into the job market, this experiential learning opportunity provides …
