Providing Opportunities for Post-Secondary Education Among Under-Represented ...

EduSkills OECD

The document summarizes research on the College Ambition Program (CAP), an intervention to increase post-secondary enrollment among underrepresented groups. CAP provides tutoring, mentoring, course advising, financial aid planning, and college visits at high schools. Analysis of CAP participants found higher college enrollment and STEM interest compared to non-participants. The research design uses treatment and matched control schools, showing increases in 2-year and 4-year college enrollment over time with CAP expansion. The program highlights the importance of personal interactions for changing student behaviors and plans regarding college.

The document discusses the rising costs of higher education for students and families. It notes that open educational resources (OER) can help reduce costs by providing free or low-cost textbooks and course materials. The document provides several examples and data points showing that the use of OER is associated with improved student outcomes like higher pass rates and decreased withdrawal rates. It estimates that the widespread adoption of OER could save colleges and universities millions of dollars each year and help make higher education more affordable and accessible.

Broadening Access to STEM and Geoscience through Support for the Whole Student

SERC at Carleton College

This document discusses strategies for supporting geoscience students at two-year colleges through a National Science Foundation grant. It focuses on supporting the "whole student" by promoting engagement, building capacity, and ensuring continuity. This involves attracting new students through outreach and introductory courses, providing academic and financial support, creating a sense of community, and preparing students for careers or further education through research experiences, internships, and comprehensive curricula. Minority-serving institutions appear to place particular emphasis on outreach, career options, and real-world experiences compared to non-minority-serving institutions. The goal is to broaden participation in the geosciences through multiple forms of student support.

Globalization, internationalism, massification, and privatization are the main engines driving changes in higher education worldwide. Globalization has increased the role of English, opportunities for study/research via technology, and emergence of international knowledge networks. Internationalism involves sending students abroad, setting up overseas campuses/partnerships, and implementing policies to respond to globalization. Massification means responding to greater demands by producing a more diverse higher education system. Privatization treats higher education as a private enterprise focused on absorbing student demand and operating under a business model.

Rafael Schleicher

- International student mobility has grown exponentially in recent decades, from 3 million students studying abroad in 2005 to over 5 million in 2014. - Asian countries now account for over half of all tertiary students worldwide, while the US role as a top destination is declining. - Brazil has seen rapid growth in students studying abroad through programs like Science Without Borders, but still lags behind countries like China and India in numbers of outbound students. Brazil also struggles to attract many foreign students to its own universities. - To keep up with global trends and opportunities, Brazil needs policies that better link international student mobility to its foreign policy goals of promoting Brazilian culture, values and soft power abroad.

This study examines internationalization at U.S. research universities through their study abroad programs. It assesses whether relationships exist between institutional inputs like staffing and funding, coordination processes by international offices, and outputs like number of students studying abroad. The findings show human resources, financial resources, and number of study abroad programs positively correlate with more students studying abroad. Number of exchange programs and international partnerships also increase exchange students. The study recommends optimizing staffing and budgets to better support internationalization through study abroad.
