Restriction Or Resistance? French Colonial Educational Development In Cambodia, Thomas Clayton Dec 1995

Restriction Or Resistance? French Colonial Educational Development In Cambodia, Thomas Clayton

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

By 1944, after eight decades of French colonial control, only a small percentage of eligible students in Cambodia attended French schools. Several scholars argue on the basis of such evidence that the French purposefully restricted education for Cambodians in order first to achieve and then to maintain power in the colony. This article examines educational development in Cambodia during the French colonial period and concludes that the lack of Cambodian educational participation stemmed from Cambodian resistance, rather than French planning. French educational reforms sought to understand Cambodian resistance, to overcome it, and to draw Cambodians into schools dedicated to the …

Surviving The Doctoral Years: Critical Perspectives, Scott P. Kerlin Nov 1995

Surviving The Doctoral Years: Critical Perspectives, Scott P. Kerlin

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

This article probes the implications of neo-conservative public education policies for the future of the academic profession through a detailed examination of critical issues shaping contemporary doctoral education in U.S. and Canadian universities. Institutional and social factors such as financial retrenchment, declining support for affirmative action, downward economic mobility, a weak academic labor market for tenure-track faculty, professional ethics in graduate education, and backlash against women's progress form the backdrop for analysis of the author's survey of current doctoral students' opinions about funding, support, the job market, and quality of learning experiences.


Pursuit Of The Ph.D.: "Survival Of The Fittest," Or Is It Time For A New Approach?, Scott P. Kerlin Nov 1995

Pursuit Of The Ph.D.: "Survival Of The Fittest," Or Is It Time For A New Approach?, Scott P. Kerlin

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

The thesis is put forward that changes in public policy which originally promoted broad access to higher education are leading to the diminished likelihood that minorities, those from low-income backgrounds and females in underrepresented disciplines will pursue, or be able to complete, the doctorate. By reviewing a wide range of research literature and statistical reports on the status of doctoral education in the U.S. & Canada, a detailed sociological portrait of those who pursue the Ph.D. is presented. Recommendations are given for further research on doctoral education, particularly in areas of attrition,retention, student indebtedness, social stratification, and post-doctoral career plans.

Inflated Grades, Inflated Enrollment, And Inflated Budgets: An Analysis And Call For Review At The State Level, J. E. Stone Jun 1995

Inflated Grades, Inflated Enrollment, And Inflated Budgets: An Analysis And Call For Review At The State Level, J. E. Stone

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

Reports of the past 13 years that call attention to deficient academic standards in American higher education are enumerated. Particular attention is given the Wingspread Group's recent An American Imperative: Higher Expectations for Higher Education. Low academic standards, grade inflation, and budgetary incentives for increased enrollment are analyzed and a call is made for research at the state level. Reported trends in achievement and GPAs are extrapolated to Tennessee and combined with local data to support the inference that 15% of the state's present day college graduates would not have earned a diploma by mid 1960s standards.

Brave New Reductionism: Tqm As Ethnocentrism, Dionysios Dennis May 1995

Brave New Reductionism: Tqm As Ethnocentrism, Dionysios Dennis

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

At century's end, practices at institutions of higher education are regularly subjected to a numbing array of stresses. Under the umbrella of fiscal austerity, intensified regimes of surveillance, in the form of corporatist management philosophies such as Total Quality Management (TQM), have been widely imposed. TQM proponents now advocate the total managementof human thought and identity. In a blatantly econometric and ethnocentric discourse where human variability is a "virus" to be "eliminated" under a war metaphor, nothing less than the future of independent intellectual work is at stake. This essay primarily explores how the theoretical roots and contemporary tropes of …

Getting A Grip On The Good Life: Essay Review Of Alan Deyoung's The Life And Death Of A Rural American High School: Farewell Little Nanawha, Craig Howley, Paul Theobald

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

Alan DeYoung's story of the circumstances surrounding the birth, growth, and death of a high school in rural West Virginia is an intellectual contribution of the first order. And Farewell Little Kanawha is certainly one of the best stories to be told by an educational researcher in recent decades. Its strength derives in large measure from DeYoung's deftness in crossing disciplinary borders. The interplay of economics, sociology, history (both oral and documentary), anthropology, and biography render this story far more compelling than most educational research. ...
