Educating Scholars

Educating Scholars

Ronald G. Ehrenberg; Harriet Zuckerman; Jeffrey A. Groen; Sharon M. Brucker

Princeton University Press
2009
sidottu
Despite the worldwide prestige of America's doctoral programs in the humanities, all is not well in this area of higher education and hasn't been for some time. The content of graduate programs has undergone major changes, while high rates of student attrition, long times to degree, and financial burdens prevail. In response, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation in 1991 launched the Graduate Education Initiative (GEI), the largest effort ever undertaken to improve doctoral programs in the humanities and related social sciences. The only book to focus exclusively on the current state of doctoral education in the humanities, Educating Scholars reports on the GEI's success in reducing attrition and times to degree, the positive changes implemented by specific graduate programs, and the many challenges still to be addressed. Over a ten-year period, the Foundation devoted almost eighty-five million dollars through the GEI to provide support for doctoral programs and student aid in fifty-four departments at ten leading universities. The authors examine data that tracked the students in these departments and in control departments, as well as information gathered from a retrospective survey of students. They reveal that completion and attrition rates depend upon financial support, the quality of advising, clarity of program requirements, and each department's expectations regarding the dissertation. The authors consider who earns doctoral degrees, what affects students' chances of finishing their programs, and how successful they are at finding academic jobs. Answering some of the most important questions being raised about American doctoral programs today, Educating Scholars will interest all those concerned about our nation's intellectual future.

Leading Dynamic Schools

Leading Dynamic Schools

Rallis Sharon F.; Gretchen B Rossman; Cobb Casey D.; Reagan Timothy G.; Kuntz Aaron M.

SAGE Publications Inc
2007
sidottu
Leading Dynamic Schools: How to Create and Implement Ethical Policies is a policy book for people who work in and with schools: teachers, building level leaders, central office administrators, board members, and parent boards. In accessible language, the authors deconstruct the conceptions and understandings of educational policy. This volume serves as a companion volume to Principals of Dynamic Schools (Rallis and Goldring, Corwin Press, 2000) and Dynamic Teachers (Rallis and Rossman, Corwin Press, 1995), books that introduced the construct of dynamic schools. This book also draws on work from Becoming a Reflective Educator (Reagan, Case and Brubacher, Corwin Press, 2000). Policy is an often overused and more often misunderstood concept. The authors bring to life the making and enacting of educational policy in schools, and help readers develop a more sophisticated and complex understanding of the purposes, evaluation, creation, and implementation of school policies at all levels. As in the earlier books, the authors use vignettes and cases, as well as research and relevant theories, to illustrate important concepts. The theme of power within policy permeates the text. The authors recognize that policy tends to represent dominant voices, and that power can be appropriate and legitimate. Dynamic schools are places where multiple voices contribute to the policy-making and implementing process.

Although the phenomenon of library anxiety and its debilitating effects on library use have been observed for years, it has only recently been studied in a systematic and scientific manner. This is the first in depth look at the origins and subsequent evolution of this fascinating field of study. Beginning with a discussion of the Library Anxiety Scale, the most widely used measure of library anxiety among college and university students, it investigates a number of theoretical models, provides an extensive framework for conducting research at the institutional level, and offers both research-based and proposed strategies for prevention and intervention.

The G.F. List: One Woman, With a List of Men, Answering The Question Singles Hate

Sharyn Atkinson

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2013
nidottu
Sharyn Atkinson doesn't claim to have all the answers, but after twelve years of being single in Melbourne, she does have some hilarious-and cringe-worthy-stories to tell. In this light-hearted, playful, and honest account of her romantic experiences, she tells these stories of hope, loss, deception, discovery, and love in all its many forms-from the sexual to the metaphysical. Though she would love to get married and start a family, Sharyn isn't settling for anyone-even if that means navigating the murky waters of dating in her thirties when everyone else has paired off and can't understand why she chooses to stay single, year after year. As Sharyn explains, "I'm not waiting for someone to come along so that I can start a new life or anything. I already have a great life. I just want someone that I can share it with. And that someone has to be the right person for me, rather than close enough to it." Whether you're single, happily married, or somewhere in between in the dating game, Sharyn's honest, relatable, and disarming accounts of trying to find "the one" in a vast sea of "not quite" will have you nodding in understanding and considering the various people you've decided to make time for-or catch and release. Take comfort in knowing that someone else is going through it too-and has the resilience to roll the dating-dice again, knowing that Mr. Right might be just around the corner.

Learning Sciences is a cutting-edge interdisciplinary field that investigates how people learn and applies these insights to improve educational practices. This essential textbook introduces the field with a focus on classroom teaching, making complex theories accessible and relevant to educators at all levels. By blending principled understanding with room for teachers’ creativity and cultural adaptation, the book empowers educators to design learning experiences that engage and inspire students.
