Emerging Legal Theories Of Educational Malpractice And Judicial Rejection, Tanya Ruth Von Gustedt

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

This is a study of the current legal theories, elements, and courts’ stances affecting educational malpractice litigation. General and legal issues were researched as a basis to identify court attitudes and general public pressures. The study also took a look at the question of possible avenues for dealing with problems of educational malpractice. Should the courts decide why Johnny can’t read and award monetary damages? Should the legislature deal with the problem of faulty education, or should a totally different agency become involved in such an undertaking?

Pueblo Of Zuni : An Evaluation Of The Zuni Cultural Education Program, Carolyn J. Moore

Teacher Education, Educational Leadership & Policy ETDs

The purpose of the evaluation was to assess the effectiveness and impacts of the ZCEP on the public school system, community, and participants (i.e., students, teachers and parents). Now in its third program year, with termination of federal funding imminent, efforts will be made by Zuni tribal and school district administrators to institutionalize the ZCEP program within the present educational structure at Zuni. The results of the evaluation will be useful to Zuni tribal leaders as they consider the future operation of the ZCEP program and to educational administrators as they continue to plan and manage program activities.

Faculty Development Among Organized Faculties In U.S. Colleges And Universities, Roma Lynn Gay Adkins

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

Higher education has experienced limitations on resources, both human and material, through financial exigency and declining enrollments (28:1). Faculty mobility has declined, and the previously employed method of improving an institution’s faculty through the employment of new talent to stimulate growth and development is no longer possible. Thus, updating, revitalizing, and improving the quality of instructional and curricular endeavors was deemed as a problem for today’s colleges and universities (6:16). The ever tightening job market and leveling off of student enrollments have yielded reduced faculty mobility and resulted in faculty members entrenched in university positions. Simerly attributed continuously growing numbers …

The Importance And Performance Of Superintendents' Job Functions As Perceived By Board Members And Superintendents, Patricia Simms Harrison

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

The functions of the superintendency are crucial to the organization and administration of a public school system. Yet, despite the importance of this position, objective and systematic procedures and processes concerning the identification and evaluation of superintendents’ job functions are seldom employed. The result has been “wide-spread dissatisfaction with superintendents’ evaluation and performance appraisal programs by both superintendents and boards.” Casual, unspecified evaluations of superintendents lead to the development of misunderstandings between school boards and superintendents and interfere with “the efficient conversion of board policy into school system practice.”

The Academic Achievement Of Adolescents From Divorced And Intact Families, Robert D. Martínez

Teacher Education, Educational Leadership & Policy ETDs

Previous research has found that children from divorced families usually perform less well on academic achievement measures than children from intact families. Most of these studies were conducted using samples or black and white lower- and working-class families. The present study investigated academic achievement (reading, language, and arithmetic) of adolescents from Hispanic and white divorced and intact families from all income levels.

There were two groups of hypotheses investigated in the study. The first group investigated the situational variables of parental marital status; the first-order interactions of parental marital status by adolescent's sex; by adolescent's ethnicity, and by adolescent's grade; …

Perception Of A University: A Study Of How Parents Develop Preferences For An Institution Of Higher Education, Carl Donald Hadsell

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

As documented in previous research, parents are an important influence in their child’s college selection process. However, little attention had been given to how parents themselves develop perceptions of or preferences for specific colleges under consideration. This study’s research design tested the null hypothesis:

"THERE EXISTS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PARENT(S) OF IN-STATE STUDENTS AND PARENT(S) OF OUT-OF-STATE STUDENTS IN THEIR FORMATION OF PERCEPTIONS AND PREFERENCES FOR WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY (WVU)."

A sample was drawn from a general population that consisted of the following three categories of students who showed interest in WVU for Fall, 1981:
