Comparative Issues Of Selection In Europe: The Case Of Greece, Dionysios Gouvias Jan 1998

Comparative Issues Of Selection In Europe: The Case Of Greece, Dionysios Gouvias

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

This article deals with inequality of access to higher education in Greece, and especially, the case of the Metropolitan Area of Athens. Specifically, I deal with a general overview of the debates about "selection" in the educational systems of Europe, with special reference to the case of Greece. It is argued here that in those levels of the educational "ladder" where the degree of specialisation and the need for individual selection is insignificant, inequalities exist, but are not profound. ...

The Political Legacy Of School Accountability Systems, Sherman Dorn Jan 1998

The Political Legacy Of School Accountability Systems, Sherman Dorn

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

The recent battle reported from Washington about proposed national testing program does not tell the most important political story about high stakes tests. Politically popular school accountability systems in many states already revolve around statistical results of testing with high-stakes environments. The future of high stakes tests thus does not depend on what happens on Capitol Hill. Rather, the existence of tests depends largely on the political culture of published test results. ...

The recent battle reported from Washington about proposed national testing program does not tell the most important political story about high stakes tests. Politically popular school accountability systems in many states already revolve around statistical results of testing with high-stakes environments. The future of high stakes tests thus does not depend on what happens on Capitol Hill. Rather, the existence of tests depends largely on the political culture of published test results. Most critics of high-stakes testing do not talk about that culture, however. They typically focus on the practice legacy of testing, the ways in which testing creates perverse …

On The Use Of Tide Gauges To Determine Altimeter Drift, D. P. Chambers, J. C. Ries, C. K. Shum, B. D. Tapley Jan 1998

On The Use Of Tide Gauges To Determine Altimeter Drift, D. P. Chambers, J. C. Ries, C. K. Shum, B. D. Tapley

Marine Science Faculty Publications

TOPEX measurements of sea level variability have been compared to tide gauge measurements from 40 sites and to dynamic topography measurements computed from temperatures recorded at 23 Tropical Ocean-Global Atmosphere (TOGA)-Tropical Atmosphere-Ocean (TAO) buoys in the eastern Pacific and mean temperature-salinity profiles. Buoy data in the western Pacific were not used because of large long-term slopes in the data that appear to be due to interannual salinity variations. The relative drift between TOPEX and the two different in situ sets of data agree within 1 mm yr−1, with a weighted average of −2.6 mm yr−1 and an …

The Value Of Having A Public Transit Travel Choice, Xuehao Chu, Steven E. Polzin Jan 1998

The Value Of Having A Public Transit Travel Choice, Xuehao Chu, Steven E. Polzin

Journal of Public Transportation

The value of having a public transit travel choice is occasionally acknowledged by planners but never quantified; this paper provides a methodology to quantify it. This value of having a public transit choice is in addition to public transits benefits to users and non-users as a result of the improved performance of other modes in the transportation system resulting from the public transit investment. The value of choice accrues to the total population that has access to public transit, not just those who chose to use it or those who benefit because others have chosen it. This paper develops a …

Seasonal Global Water Mass Budget And Mean Sea Level Variations, J. L. Chen, C. R. Wilson, D. P. Chambers, R. S. Nerem, B. D. Tapley Jan 1998

Seasonal Global Water Mass Budget And Mean Sea Level Variations, J. L. Chen, C. R. Wilson, D. P. Chambers, R. S. Nerem, B. D. Tapley

Marine Science Faculty Publications

Analysis of TOPEX/Poseidon satellite altimeter data indicates that the global mean sea level variation has a clear seasonal signal with an amplitude of about 2 to 3 mm, along with a long term drift. This seasonal variation is associated with mass redistribution within the global hydrological cycle plus steric thermal contributions. We investigate seasonal variations of water vapor in the atmosphere and water storage on land using both assimilated atmospheric models and climatological data, and to estimate the corresponding global mean sea level changes. The predicted seasonal global mean sea level changes are then compared with the seasonal variabilities observed …
