2011 Miami University Middletown Ohio Campus Compact VISTA ReportOhio Campus Compact
The Ohio Campus Compact AmeriCorps*VISTA member at Miami University Middletown helped establish several community outreach programs between the university and local organizations. These programs included America Reads, America Counts, and Adopt-a-School tutoring initiatives that provided over 2,000 hours of tutoring to local schools. The VISTA member also worked with a local homeless shelter, the Center of Hope for Women and Children, developing a tutoring center and garden that provided food for meals. Through these and other efforts, the VISTA helped connect campus resources with community needs and provided opportunities for 150 volunteers contributing over 2,500 hours of service worth an estimated $11,000.
The document discusses the challenges America faces in maintaining its competitive edge in the globalized world. It argues that the US must educate students to meet this challenge by having them take a rigorous college preparatory curriculum in high school to ensure they are ready for postsecondary education and careers. The future will be difficult if America does not lead in this new flat world through improving education. It also notes that jobs now and in the future will require strong skills in math, science, technology, and problem solving.
The document discusses the evolution of education policies and priorities in the United States, China, Japan, and Singapore over the past few decades in response to globalization and competition. It notes that the US enacted No Child Left Behind in 2002 to increase testing, while more recently shifting focus to adopting common core standards, improving teacher quality, and measuring performance globally. China moved away from testing and rankings in 2002 and reformed high school curriculum in 2005. Japan's education plan since 2001 emphasizes emotional education and cultivating individuality. Singapore also shifted priorities but details are not provided.

Poem Analysis- A Dream Deferred By: Langston HughesLiam Daly
This poem analyzes Langston Hughes' poem "Dream Deferred" which explores what might happen to a dream or ambition that is put off or not able to be achieved.

The analysis concludes that the poem encourages readers to never give up on their dreams.
Langston Hughes' poem "A Dream Deferred" explores what happens when dreams and aspirations are put off to a later time. The poem uses imagery and rhetorical questions to suggest that delaying one's dreams can cause them to wither and decay, or potentially "explode" in frustration. As part of the Harlem Renaissance, Hughes sought to portray the black experience in America and encourage African Americans to pursue their goals and celebrate their culture despite facing racial struggles and limited opportunities at the time. The theme of pursuing one's dreams, even in the face of adversity, remains relevant today.
This 3 line poem by Langston Hughes explores what might happen to a dream that is put off or denied.

Ultimately, the poem implies that a long-deferred dream may explode in despair and frustration, with uncertain consequences.
The poem "Dreams" by Langston Hughes uses the imagery of a broken-winged bird and a barren frozen field to convey the importance of holding on to one's dreams.

Global Citizenship, Study Abroad, and Community College: A Case Study of Sant...Roy Y. Chan
This document analyzes the Global Studies Associates Degree program at Santa Monica Community College. It finds that while the program aims to develop globally competent citizens, graduation rates are low, especially for minority students. Pursuing study abroad is challenging without full scholarships due to rising costs. The degree may be most beneficial for privileged students who can easily transfer. It recommends encouraging other colleges to offer similar programs, focusing on universal global learning rather than just study abroad, and increasing community college membership in global education organizations.

A presentation by Noel Harmon, senior research analyst at the Institute for Higher Education Policy and Becky Rosenburg, director of the Center for Teaching, Learning and Assessment and director of the Academic Skills Achievement Program at California State Monterey Bay to the Association of American Colleges and Universities (AAC&U) on Minority Serving Institutions.
Community colleges have grown rapidly since WWII and now serve 33% of US higher education students. They are responsive to local community needs and serve nontraditional students. In the 1980s, enrollment growth slowed as the student population changed. However, community colleges adapted by offering retraining programs and increasing flexibility. They have also strengthened transfer pathways to 4-year schools and diversified their faculty. Moving forward, community colleges are expected to play a larger role in serving underrepresented groups and addressing teacher shortages through lateral entry programs in partnership with other institutions.

While progress has been made, more needs to be done to ensure civic learning is a core, integrated part of the student experience and curriculum in higher education.

This document provides an overview of brands and brand management. It defines what a brand is, explains how branding applies to many things, and outlines the importance of brands. A brand differs from a product in being a perceptual entity that lives in consumers' minds and provides functional and emotional value. Brands have elements like names, logos, and slogans that identify and differentiate them. Effective branding transforms products into value-added propositions that create customer preferences. Branding has evolved from focusing on unique selling propositions to providing holistic customer experiences. The advantages of branding include legal protection, attracting loyal customers, and building a company's image. Risks include viewing brands as something owned rather than relating to customers and focusing on awareness
The document summarizes key aspects of strategic human resource management and how it differs from traditional human resource management. It discusses how SHRM links HR goals to organizational strategy, focuses on developing employee competencies to support strategic aims, and views people as strategic assets. The document also outlines the 10-step process for creating an HR scorecard to measure how HR policies and activities contribute to business objectives.
Hospital app project (how to upload app)MAHFUZ RAIHAN
PhoneGap allows developers to create mobile apps using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript that can be deployed across iOS, Android, and Windows platforms. It provides a single code base, rapid testing and deployment, and access to platform-specific features. Submitting an app to the Apple App Store requires a $99/year developer account, creating certificates and profiles, building a release version, filling out app information, and submitting for review. The Android Market (now Google Play Store) requires a one-time $25 registration fee and uploading the compiled APK. The Windows Store charges $99/year and uses Visual Studio for creating projects, editing app manifests, capturing screenshots, creating app packages, and uploading for certification and release.
Market segmentation involves dividing a target market into subgroups based on variables like demographics, attitudes, behaviors, or other characteristics. This allows organizations to fine-tune their strategies, messaging, products, and other activities for each specific segment. The document discusses 9 benefits of market segmentation, such as achieving differentiation, informing messaging and product decisions, embracing niche marketing, optimizing marketing budgets, and improving brand management and customer retention strategies. Market segmentation models typically identify 3 to 7 segments that can then be profiled and targeted by organizations.
From here to there for first gen overcomingMAHFUZ RAIHAN
The document outlines a workshop presented by Dr. Fay M. Butler on overcoming obstacles to college access for first generation and underrepresented students. The workshop will cover defining these student populations, the importance of college access, models of college choice, and obstacles to access. It will use theoretical frameworks like Hossler and Gallagher's college choice model and Freeman's model of predetermination. Key obstacles to access discussed include unequal educational expectations, academic qualifications, financial assistance, and information about the college search process.
Enrollment management began in the 1970s at Boston College when administrators realized the need to direct admission resources and minimize attrition. In the 1980s, Don Hossler expanded enrollment management to include student marketing, recruitment, financial aid, and their influence on student services. Hossler and Bean defined enrollment management as an organizational concept using strategic planning and data to influence student enrollment through college choice, transition, retention, and outcomes. For student affairs, enrollment management requires strategies linked to the college's strategic plan and that are data-driven, comprehensive, and focus on student success. The key aspects of an enrollment management plan include recruitment, financial aid, student services, and retention.
