In answering the research question, …

Stakeholder Perceptions Of Student Opportunity In Consolidated Rural High Schools, Bradley Smith
Ed.D. Dissertations

In this case study of a …

Since the President’s Appalachian Regional Commission in 1964, the Appalachian region has been recognized by its financial struggles, low employment rates, and low educational achievement. While numerous researchers have examined the problems of education in the area, few studies have sought methods for …

Study results demonstrated that the majority of the teachers surveyed are familiar with differentiated instruction; however, because of their unfamiliarity of available tools, the immense amount of preparation time involved coupled …
