Redesigning America’s Community Colleges

Redesigning America’s Community Colleges

In the United States, 1,200 community colleges enroll over ten million students each year—nearly half of the nation’s undergraduates. Yet fewer than 40 percent of entrants complete an undergraduate degree within six years. This fact has put pressure on community colleges to improve academic outcomes for their students. Redesigning America’s Community Colleges is a concise, evidence-based guide for educational leaders whose institutions typically receive short shrift in academic and policy discussions. It makes a compelling case that two-year colleges can substantially increase their rates of student success, if they are willing to rethink the ways in which they organize programs of study, support services, and instruction.Community colleges were originally designed to expand college enrollments at low cost, not to maximize completion of high-quality programs of study. The result was a cafeteria-style model in which students pick courses from a bewildering array of choices, with little guidance. The authors urge administrators and faculty to reject this traditional model in favor of “guided pathways”—clearer, more educationally coherent programs of study that simplify students’ choices without limiting their options and that enable them to complete credentials and advance to further education and the labor market more quickly and at less cost.Distilling a wealth of data amassed from the Community College Research Center (Teachers College, Columbia University), Redesigning America’s Community Colleges offers a fundamental redesign of the way two-year colleges operate, stressing the integration of services and instruction into more clearly structured programs of study that support every student’s goals.

Implementing Student-Led Conferences

Implementing Student-Led Conferences

The term `student-led conference' is almost self-explanatory. A student-led conference is a conference with parents led by the student. The classroom teacher's role becomes that of a facilitator. In a student-led conference, students lead parents through a discussion of their work which is usually organized in a portfolio collection. Typically, several conferences are conducted simultaneously in a classroom with family groups seated far enough apart to allow privacy. The teacher circulates among family groups, stopping long enough to make pertinent comments and answer questions. Students primarily direct the conversation which is focused on their work and classroom behavior. The real power in this innovation is that student-led conferences require students to take most of the responsibility for reporting what they have learned. The authors' goal in writing this book is to help readers understand: · Why it is effective for students to lead a conference · What an effective model for student-led conferences looks like · How to prepare and organize for student-led conferences · How to evaluate the effectiveness of student-led conferences
Lansing's Young Architects: William Appleyard, R. Arthur Bailey and Frederick Thoman
Lansing was fortunate to have several local architects in the later 19th and early 20th Century. The works of Edwyn Bowd and Darius Moon are well known, but there were several others. James Appleyard, the contractor for the Michigan State Capitol served as a mentor to three young local architects: his son William Appleyard, the brother of his daughter-in-law, R. Arthur Bailey and the son of one of Lansing's leading businessmen, Frederick Thoman. These are their stories and while their work was prolific, most of the buildings and homes these men designed no longer exist. This book is an effort to recognize their contributions to Michigan's architectural history. Awarded the 2020 honor for Outstanding Michigan History Publication Private Printing by the Michigan Historical Society.

Thomas R. R. Cobb (1823-1862), a Georgia jurist who, perhaps more than any other one person, influenced the form that the "second revolution" took in Georgia (1860-1861), has been described as a prototype of a Southern intellectual. A product of the "Old South," Cobb's influence upon national events (up to and during the Civil War, especially in Georgia) was considerable. Cobb was a "representative Southerner" whose ideas "expressed the trends then current in Southern thought." This investigation of the life and influence of Thomas R. R. Cobb provides significant insight into the attitudes of his time. Cobb's multifaceted involvements -- in legal, educational, and moral reform; revivalism; the "positive good defense" of slavery; secession; and the Civil War -- make him a doubly interesting important figure worthy of serious investigation. The present study is just such a serious, well-researched, and well-written investigation of Cobb, and amply provides further insight into the life and times of that "Late Great Unpleasantness" (secession and Civil War) that is such an important part of the history of the United States.
