Learning From Others: Service-Learning In Costa Rica And Indonesia, David D. Williams, William D. Eiserman Jan 1997

Learning From Others: Service-Learning In Costa Rica And Indonesia, David D. Williams, William D. Eiserman

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

Calls are increasingly sounded for universities to better address their communities' and students' needs through service, as well as research and teaching. This article invites policy makers to re-examine university service, research, and teaching responsibilities by reflecting on roles service-learning plays in universities in Indonesia and Costa Rica. We conclude that service-learning plays a critical role and a key to expanding service-learning for students and understanding the utility of such a policy change is increased faculty involvement. Until more faculty explore the "why" and "how" of service-learning, research and teaching will dominate the university agenda.

Markets And Myths: Autonomy In Public And Private Schools, Sandra Rubin Glass Jan 1997

Markets And Myths: Autonomy In Public And Private Schools, Sandra Rubin Glass

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

School choice is the most controversial education policy of the 1990s. John Chubb and Terry Moe's Politics, Markets and America's Schools stimulated this investigation. They concluded that teacher and administrator autonomy was the most important influence on student achievement. They assumed that the organization of private schools offered greater autonomy resulting in higher student achievement and that the bureaucracy of public schools stifles autonomy limiting student achievement. The research undertaken here elaborates, elucidates, and fills in the framework of teacher and principal autonomy in public and private secondary schools.

Findings From A Survey On Bus Stop Design, Kay Fitzpatrick, Dennis Perkinson, Kevin Hall Jan 1997

Findings From A Survey On Bus Stop Design, Kay Fitzpatrick, Dennis Perkinson, Kevin Hall

Journal of Public Transportation

The bus stop is the first point of contact between the passenger and the bus service. The spacing, location, and design of bus stops significantly influence transit system performance and customer satisfaction. At present, relatively few transit agencies have comprehensive reference material available to assist in bus stop location and design. In recognition of the importance of bus stop location and design, the Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) sponsored research to develop guidelines for locating and designing bus stops in various operating environments. These guidelines can assist transit agencies, local governments, and others (e.g., developers) in locating and designing bus …
