Diversifying Finance Of Higher Education Systems In The Third World: The Cases Of Kenya And Mongolia, John C. Weidman Feb 1995

Diversifying Finance Of Higher Education Systems In The Third World: The Cases Of Kenya And Mongolia, John C. Weidman

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

In countries throughout the world, there are increasing pressures to reduce the government share of costs for goods and services with high payoffs to individuals so that the limited available public funds can be used for other needs. This paper suggests several strategies for reducing government expenditures on higher education, including direct cost recovery, grants from and contracts with external agencies, income-producing enterprises, private contributions, and expansion of the private sector. Policy implications and examples (e.g., student access and financial aid, tax status of revenues from enterprises, deferred cost recovery) are presented for both developing and developed countries.

Coordinating Family And School: Mothering For Schooling, Alison I. Griffith Jan 1995

Coordinating Family And School: Mothering For Schooling, Alison I. Griffith

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

In this paper I explore the relationship between mothering work in the family and the social organization of schooling. In particular, I address the ways in which mothers coordinate and contest the textually-organized discourse of schooling In contrast to other studies of the family/school relationship, this research began in the experience of mothers whose children attend primary school. The data were collected through interviews with mothers in two cities in Ontario. Mothering work constructs families that are differently connected to schools -- a connection strongly shaped by and constitutive of social class.

Cold Warriors In The Hot Sunshine: Usf And The Johns Committee, James Anthony Schnur Jan 1995

Cold Warriors In The Hot Sunshine: Usf And The Johns Committee, James Anthony Schnur

USF St. Petersburg Campus Faculty Publications

Excerpted from a larger seminar paper that described legislative assaults on academic freedom in Florida during the period following World War II, this article traced the history of probes directed at the University of South Florida (USF). Chartered in 1956 and opened in 1960, USF was the first public university in an urbanized metropolitan area on the Florida peninsula, and the new university became a target for the reactionary Florida Legislative Investigation Committee (FLIC), an interim committee of the Florida legislature that operated from mid-1956 until July 1965. Commonly nicknamed the "Johns Committee" due to the longtime leadership of the …

Worldwide Educational Convergence Through International Organizations: Avenues For Research, Connie L. Mcneely, Yung-Kyung Cha Nov 1994

Worldwide Educational Convergence Through International Organizations: Avenues For Research, Connie L. Mcneely, Yung-Kyung Cha

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

We argue for an examination of the role of the transnational organizational apparatus vis-a-vis nation-states in organizing national educational systems in accordance with world level educational ideologies, structures, and practices. We propose that more analytic attention be given international organizations as an institutionalizing force in examining educational convergence and change, and suggest four primary international organization activities as potentially fruitful avenues for research in this area: 1) the exchange of information, 2) charters and constitutions, 3) standard-setting instruments, and 4) technical and financial resources. ...

Public Speech: The Degarmo Lecture For 1993, Thomas F. Green Feb 1994

Public Speech: The Degarmo Lecture For 1993, Thomas F. Green

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

The State is constituted by law; the public by public speech. But "What makes public speech public?" Two views are contrasted: the forum view by which speech is public only if it is truth functional, and the idea of umbilical narratives in which speech is public when placed in some community of memory. Offered instead is the auditory principle, namely that speech is public when what is said by A is heard by B as candidate for B's speech. This principle is explored and applied and currently popular fallacies of public speech are exposed.

Dealing With Diversity: Some Propositions From Canadian Education, Benjamin Levin, J. Anthony Riffel

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

Increasing diversity in the population is a major issue for educators in North America, presenting political as well as educational challenges. This paper examines Canadian educational policy responses to four kinds of diversity - bilingualism (French/English), multiculturalism, the situation of aboriginal peoples, and the problem of poverty. A description of each issue leads to some speculations or propositions on the nature of diversity and appropriate educational responses to it.
