Student Outcomes: The Impact of Varying Living-Learning Community Models     

Stassen  Martha L. A. 《Research in higher education》2003,44(5):581-613

This study explores the effect of three distinct living-learning community models on a variety of student experience and academic performance outcomes. Central to the analysis is an investigation of whether there are differences in outcomes for learning communities with different missions and structures, all three of which fall into the Linked Course learning community design. Even in the least coordinated, most basic, learning community model, students show more positive outcomes (first semester GPA, retention, first-year experience) than nonlearning community students. The fact that simple structures that facilitate student interaction around academic work (even without coordinated faculty involvement) have a positive effect for students of all preparation levels provides encouragement to campus leaders with limited resources who are working to develop methods for improving the undergraduate educational experience on their campuses.  相似文献   

Concurrent Validity of LibQUAL+™ Scores: What Do LibQUAL+™ Scores Measure?     

Bruce Thompson  Colleen Cook  Martha Kyrillidou 《The Journal of Academic Librarianship》2005,31(6):517-522

The present study investigated the validity of LibQUAL+™ scores, and specifically how total and subscale LibQUAL+™ scores are associated with self-reported, library-related satisfaction and outcomes scores. Participants included 88,664 students and faculty who completed the American English (n_AE = 69,494) or the British English (n_BE = 19,170) LibQUAL+™ language versions in the 2004 data collection cycle. Results suggest that LibQUAL+™ scores primarily measure satisfaction rather than outcomes.  相似文献
