Promoting Student Activism Among Our Millennial Students, Brian E. Cole

Growth: The Journal of the Association for Christians in Student Development

This comprehensive literature review investigates student activism to provide a generational backdrop to the varied types and methods of college student activism in the Millennial generation. After the explosive student uprisings of the 1960’s and 1970’s, it would be easy to deduce that in the absence of such high profile activities, student activism post-1980 is non-existent or insignificant. However, current literature suggests student activism is alive and well, although it often looks quite different. This makes student activism among Millennial students as important and worthy of study as any earlier generation. But to understand recent activism, one must be aware …

Problem. Among the wide spectrum of definitions regarding the meaning of leadership there are also themes regarding a critical need for leadership-development, and the belief that leadership can be learned and should be available to all.

Salting The Oats - Preparing Adjunct Faculty To Be Effective Teachers: A Professional Development Intervention At A Community College, Carol Christine Salmon

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This study used a mixed method research design to examine the effects of a targeted professional development program, Project A.P.T. (Academy for Part-time Teachers), on effectiveness of four adjunct faculty as instructors. Project A.P.T. was developed to help acclimate new pm1-tirne faculty to community college teaching. Though faculty may repo11 that they implement whal they have learned, rarely do colleges evaluate the impact of faculty development on student learning. Given the needs of community college students, many of whom enter under-prepared, it is imperative that the largest majority of the faculty, adjuncts, come to the classroom as highly trained and …

Dispositions: Defining, Aligning And Assessing, Nancy Edick, Lana Danielson, Sarah Edwards

Academic Leadership: The Online Journal (2003-2012)

With the focus on student achievement, nationwide attempts are being made to improve schools and school systems. In these reforms teachers are the single most important factor (Darling- Hammond 1997; Wilson, Floden, and Ferrini-Mundy 2001). Teacher preparation programs have a unique opportunity and responsibility, therefore, to have a significant impact on teacher quality. Central to the ability to do so is a comprehensive understanding of what factors constitute teacher quality.

Education is the basic path to create a complete person improving high thinking and analytical skills for solving problems. Certain defects of the science education would be observed in developing countries minimizing the nations’ strength towards the better development. Quality of the science education is the common fact to be considered in developing countries. Most of the developing countries are following western educational systems which are unsuitable for man’s strength in developing countries as a result of the colonization. Exam oriented teaching processes are going on without understanding and applications. Learner centered, activity based science education is unpracticed due to …
