Predicting higher education outcomes and implications for a postsecondary institution ratings system     

Eddie G. Walker II 《Journal of Higher Education Policy & Management》2016,38(4):422-433

The accountability of colleges and universities is a high priority for those making policy decisions. The purpose of this study was to determine institutional characteristics predicting retention rates, graduation rates and transfer-out rates using publicly available data from the US Department of Education. Using regression analysis, it was determined there are 14 predictors of the full-time retention rate, 7 predictors of the part-time retention rate, 15 predictors of the graduation rate and 12 predictors of transfer-out rates. Institutions and policymakers could use the results of this analysis to determine the policies that would be beneficial to improving the analysed outcomes. All four analyses indicate good fit with R² ranging from .273 to .828. Some possible policy implications include addressing selectivity if institutions want to improve retention rates and addressing affordability to improve retention and graduation rates.  相似文献   

《利息理论》课程教学资源开发应用探析     

彭大衡  马莉 《教育教学论坛》2020,(10):293-294

《利息理论》课程教学资源开发应用中存在"两重两轻、创新不足"的问题,文章分析了问题产生的深层次原因:教育部考核导向、学校管理层激励机制弱化及专任教师多重压力下的行为选择。从学校管理层和专任教师两方面探讨相关应对策略,包括强化课程教学资源开发应用的激励机制,探索合理有效的课程教学资源开发应用评价体系,形成课程教学资源合理开发有效利用的长效机制,减轻专任教师的外部压力,针对课程理论体系、应用场景开发有关教学资源,借助课程核心内容培养学生创新精神,综合开发应用校外资源等。  相似文献   

How gender stereotypes of students and significant others are related to motivational and affective outcomes in mathematics at the end of secondary school     

《Contemporary educational psychology》2023

We examined associations between the explicit mathematics-related gender stereotypes of students, parents, teachers, and classmates and students’ motivational-affective outcomes in mathematics (self-concept, interest, anxiety) at the end of Grade 9. Based on representative data from the German Trends in Student Achievement 2018 study (N = 30,019), results of latent multilevel mixture models show that boys’ and girls’ explicit beliefs in the stereotype favoring their own gender in-group (i.e., boys’/girls’ belief that boys/girls do better at mathematics) were related to higher levels of self-concept and interest and to lower anxiety. Parents’ gender stereotypes showed an incremental association with all three outcomes for girls but only with mathematics self-concept for boys. Gender stereotypes of teachers were not related to students’ outcomes. However, classmates’ stereotypes favoring girls or boys in mathematics were negatively associated with outcomes of the positively stereotyped group. Thus, a male student in a classroom with classmates who share the traditional stereotype that boys do better at mathematics than girls would hold a lower self-concept and interest and higher anxiety level after controlling for the beneficial individual association of himself having the same belief and his motivational and affective outcomes. Similarly, a girl’s motivational-affective outcomes would be more favorable in the same environment characterized by the shared traditional stereotype of mathematics as a male domain after controlling for the negative individual association. Shared stereotypes in the classroom could thus trigger social comparison processes to which students are more susceptible than to stereotypes of their teachers.  相似文献   

Simple shear endochronic eqiations for finite plastic deformation     

JlANG Wugui  FU Mingfu  CHEN Liangsen  GENG Shiqi 《重庆大学学报(英文版)》2004,3(1)

The endochronic equations proposed by Valanis (1980) were extended to a finite deformation range. Jaumann's rate,Fu's rate and Wu's rate were incorporated into the endochronic equations to analyze simple shear finite deformation. Incremental equations and numerical solutions are deduced for three endochronic objective models. The results show that an oscillatory shear stress response to a monotonically increasing shear strain occurs when the Jaumann's rate objective model is employed for endochronic materials. The oscillatory response is dependent on the adopted objective rate. Compared with the Jaumann's rate, the Fu's rate and the Wu's rate satisfy the restrictions to elastic-plastic constitutive relations and are in agreement with the experimental results.  相似文献

对"三农"问题的一点政治学反思   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

孙春鹏 《齐齐哈尔师范高等专科学校学报》2006,(1):29-32

“三农”问题归根结底是农民问题——是农民的生存和发展问题，是农民的人权（农民的生存权和发展权）问题，是农民的利益问题，是农民的权利问题——是农民在国家权利资源分配中的地位问题。解决“三农”问题，当前首要的是明确农民在国家权利资源分配中的地住，给予和保障农民享有充分而平等的经济权利、政治权利、文化教育权利和社会保障权利，或者换一种说法，就是“给予农民以国民待遇”。  相似文献

通过对我省10余所大学的2000多名大学生的调查,分析探讨了当前辽宁大学生课余体育锻炼的现状,并针对所发现的问题提出了建议.研究表明:当前,课余体育锻炼已成为相当一部分大学生课余生活的主要活动方式之一.大学生总体上课余体育锻炼参与面较广,但活动量相对不足.锻炼的方式、场所及锻炼项目等存在较明显的集中趋势,多数大学生对课余体育锻炼抱有兴趣,锻炼价值取向具有多元化特征.场地器材缺乏、学习任务过重等外在因素仍然是参与课余体育锻炼的主要制约因素,并且在课余体育锻炼参与率、周锻炼次数、每次锻炼时间、锻炼兴趣等方面,存在着较明显的性别差异.  相似文献
