Academia’S Past Boundaries In The Present Future, Elijah Sloat

History Honors Papers

In the later nineteenth century, Americans trained and acquired history degrees in Europe and Germany. It was in Europe that American scholars developed their understanding of what an “Historian” was. This image was one of a masculine “objective” researcher solving and discovering the “truth” of the past. It was these characteristics that formed the original boundaries of the American historical discipline. These boundaries remain and can be seen in contemporary discourse on academia. In Chapter Two this discourse is discussed and explored focusing on the four groups of scholars, disciplines, institutions, and the public. My research seeks to understand how …

Additions And Revisions To The Presidential Scholars Award Program: A Proposal, Emily Swanson

Honors Projects

For my Honors Project, I set out to help improve the Presidential Scholars Award program. The PSA program offers its recipients the opportunity to engage in a four-year, co-curricular experience during their time at Bowling Green State University and during their time in the BGSU Honors College. For this project, I sought to recommend a new four-year model for the PSA program founded on formal, published research and my own qualitative research. This new model includes common experiences for each class level such as regular meetings and yearly events to establish a cohort culture. In completing this project, I advance …

Evaluation Of Unified Student Financial Assistance System In Tertiary Education (Unifast) In Addressing Capital Market Imperfection In The Philippines, Eric Jayson V. Asuncion, Tereso S. Tullao Jr

Angelo King Institute for Economic and Business Studies (AKI)

The importance of investing in higher education cannot be overemphasized. It can affect individuals’ income as well as the nations’ progress in terms of the quality of its labor force. However, the participation rate in the Philippines in higher education over several decades has remained relatively stagnant compared with our neighboring countries like Thailand and Korea. Part of the reason for the low participation rate can be attributed to poverty issues as well as the financing problems of the able students who lack sufficient funds to cover the cost of education. Individuals and even organizations always seek the help of …

Phase Two provides leadership opportunities for a subsequent cohort of students within the curriculum. Finally, Phase Three integrates faculty scholarship.

To Improve the Academy: A Journal of Educational Development

Some scholars want help from educational developers to become better, more prolific writers. This study examines one such program, Publish & Flourish, that holds participants accountable for writing daily and for receiving weekly feedback from peers on drafts of writing. In this mixed methods study, 95% of participants (N = 93) reported that they improved their writing by making it more organized and reader centered. Participants also reported that they increased their extrapolated average of submissions of scholarly manuscripts per year from about two to almost six. We then compared Publish & Flourish to several other studies of scholarly writing …
