Tutor In A Bag: Reaching Struggling Readers, Lillian Hoskinson
Mahurin Honors College Capstone Experience/Thesis Projects
Tutor in a Bag is a tutoring program designed to match novice adult tutors with struggling early readers. The program trains tutors with varied backgrounds to work with struggling readers using evidence-based instructional strategies and data collection methods. Tutors attended an initial training session to receive materials, practice each component of the lesson plan, and to receive fundamental training on use of reading games and strategies supporting solid reading instruction at a brisk pace.

Higher Education In Israel: An Overview, Ami Rokach
International Journal of Leadership and Change
The Global Village is changing and, with it, the higher education landscape. In the present article, the changes that have happened globally are reviewed, and particularly in Israel. In general, due to privatization and global competition, higher education is becoming more accessible; thus, there is a concern that quantity may come at the price of quality education.

Shared Leadership: A Unique But Beneficial Arrangement Within A University Department, W. Pitt Derryberry, Steven R. Wininger
International Journal of Leadership and Change
Universities often lose some of their best teachers and researchers to transitions to administration.
