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. ...

Moving Along: An Exploratory Study Of Homeless Women With Children Using A Transitional Housing Program, Sondra J. Fogel Sep 1997

Moving Along: An Exploratory Study Of Homeless Women With Children Using A Transitional Housing Program, Sondra J. Fogel

Social Work Faculty Publications

The increase in the number of women and children who are homeless, particularly in the last fifteen years, has generated the innovation of shelters that combine longer term housing arrangements and social services. These organizations are usually called "transitional housing," intended to assist this population toward the economic goal of "self-sufficiency." The impact and success of this strategy is often debated. However, there has been scant research investigating how residents of this setting use skills and resources to secure housing outcomes and community re-integration. Through multiple in-depth interviews and other qualitative data collecting strategies, a conceptual model is presented which …

Academic Freedom, Promotion, Reappointment, Tenure And The Administrative Use Of Student Evaluation Of Faculty (Sef): (Part Ii) Views From The Court, Robert E. Haskell Aug 1997

Academic Freedom, Promotion, Reappointment, Tenure And The Administrative Use Of Student Evaluation Of Faculty (Sef): (Part Ii) Views From The Court, Robert E. Haskell

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

Though a controversial history of research on the reliability and validity of student evaluation of faculty (SEF) exists, it has not been typically viewed as an infringement on academic freedom, promotion, reappointment, and tenure rights. As a consequence, legal aspects of SEF are neither readily apparent, nor available. Unlike academic freedom, tenure, and other issues, which exist as legal categories, SEF as a category is virtually absent in legal compendia on higher education law. ...

Early Childhood Evaluation And Policy Analysis: A Communicative Framework For The Next Decade, Cynthia Wallat, Carolyn Piazza Jul 1997

Early Childhood Evaluation And Policy Analysis: A Communicative Framework For The Next Decade, Cynthia Wallat, Carolyn Piazza

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

A major challenge for the next generation of students of human development is to help shape the paradigms by which we analyze and evaluate public policies for children and families. … This article suggests how traditional approaches to policy inquiry can be reconsidered in light of these research inquiry and communicative skills needed by all policy researchers. A fifteen year review of both policy and discourse processes research is presented to suggest ways toconduct policy studies within a communicative framework.

Studying The Rural In Education: Nation-Building, "Globalization," And School Improvement, Craig B. Howley Apr 1997

Studying The Rural In Education: Nation-Building, "Globalization," And School Improvement, Craig B. Howley

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

This essay maintains that nation-building, partly through systems of schooling, has served rather more to debase than improve the rural circumstance. It suggests that a different logic of improvement is needed in rural education, but refrains from prescriptions. Instead, it focuses its attention on the sort of questions that researchers (and school improvers, for that matter) might ask to discover or invent that logic variously. ...

Cultural Differences And The Construction Of Meaning: Implications For The Leadership And Organizational Context Of Schools, Robert A. Peña Apr 1997

Cultural Differences And The Construction Of Meaning: Implications For The Leadership And Organizational Context Of Schools, Robert A. Peña

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

The relationships between student achievement, student culture and practitioners' attitudes and expectations were investigated. Student achievement was defined as academic performance but also included perceptions, rationales and explanations for student behaviors and conduct. Student culture described student's Mexican American origins, customs and beliefs. Practitioners' attitudes described how middle school personnel perceived Mexican American high and underachieving students generally, and practitioners' expectations described how personnel interacted and behaved toward Mexican American students. ...

The History Of The Reserve Officer Training Corps Among The Association Of American Universities From 1982 To 1992: Review Of Institutional Response To Rotc Policy Regarding Homosexuals, Lee S. Deumer

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

This is a policy analysis, in a historical context, of how Association of American University institutions responded to Reserve Officer Training Corps policy excluding homosexuals. The time period for this study is 1982 to 1992. Qualitative methods are used to analyze data and arrive at conclusions. Secondary data provide additional depth and background. This study reveals seven different positions institutions have taken in response to ROTC policy, these include: supporting ROTC policy, neutrality, collective action, barring military recruiters from campus, distancing the institution from ROTC, and changing the campus climate. This includes examples taken from AAU institutions and rationales behind …

The Circle Of Learning: Individual And Group Processes, Ernest Chang, Don Simpson Feb 1997

The Circle Of Learning: Individual And Group Processes, Ernest Chang, Don Simpson

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

We present a paradigm for modeling the processes found in individual and group learning. Using combinations of two dimensions, the first being whether the learner's activities are By-Oneself or With-Peers, and the second whether the process orientation is toward the Person as the focus of the learning or toward the Group as the focus, we derive four quadrants in Activity-Orientation learning space. These four quadrants represent: lectures, individual learning, concurrent learning, and collaborative learning. ...
