The evolution and futuring of nccu
North Carolina Central University was founded in 1909 by Dr. James Edward Shepard as the first public liberal arts institution for African Americans. It has since grown to offer bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees. While the university has had successes like establishing schools of law, education, and a biotechnology research institute, it also faces challenges such as low diversity, retention and graduation rates, and lack of student access to technology. The document discusses ways the university could evolve through integrating learning technologies, social media, and the internet to improve these issues and expand its reach in the future.
Non Traditional Homecoming
This document discusses Illinois State University's efforts to engage alumni and students in homecoming celebrations through various online and virtual activities. It highlights web-based and mobile tools that increased participation, including an interactive map with over 450 updated alumni profiles, online voting that saw a quarter of students participate, and social media presence that drove over 100,000 page views to the homecoming website. The university aims to continue enticing greater involvement through virtual events and promotions for homecoming 2011.
SG Legislative Agenda Update
The document outlines funding priorities and action items for the University of Florida Student Government's 2016 Legislative Agenda. The top funding priority is renovating Norman Hall, the aging education building on campus in need of electrical, plumbing and structural repairs. Other priorities include securing performance-based funding to support UF's academic excellence, keeping tuition costs from increasing further, and maintaining funding for Bright Futures scholarships amid rising eligibility requirements. The agenda also calls for allocating bonded capital improvement funds for student life buildings and addressing facility issues threatening the College of Music's accreditation.

This document provides information about admission, tuition/financial aid, housing, scholarships, and campus visits at An Equal Opportunity University. It details the admission application process and requirements, considerations for admission, costs for tuition/fees and housing, sources of financial aid, types of scholarships available, and services provided by the visitor center for campus tours.
IMPACT OF COVID ON EDUCATION
The document discusses the impact of COVID-19 on education. It notes that most nations implemented lockdowns which closed schools and colleges. This led to a jump in online learning platforms as learning continued remotely. Some impacts included skills training moving online, reduced transportation costs through video conferencing, and opportunities for quality open online courses. However, there were also shortcomings like privacy issues with US-based platforms, connectivity gaps in rural areas, and lack of centralized course materials. Moving forward, blended online and in-person learning may become more common, along with increased testing and gradual reopening of schools.
Impact of COVID 19 on Overseas Education
The COVID-19 pandemic is having a major impact on overseas education. Most countries have imposed temporary travel bans, raising questions about overseas education applications, visas, and study programs. Universities are taking measures to prevent virus spread and support overseas students through online classes or deferring admission to compensate for travel bans. The April and May intakes will likely be deferred, impacting thousands of students' education plans, but embassies are working to help and travel bans are only temporary. While the situation is challenging, over 82,000 people have recovered from COVID-19, providing hope the crisis will end sooner than expected.

The University of Illinois at Springfield saw decreased state funding and responded with actions like administrative restructuring and increased online course offerings. Penn State World Campus aimed to double enrollment to address flat state support; it examined revenue sharing and collaboration between academic units. All three institutions aimed to mediate budget shortfalls through new programs and increased online education.
The evolution and futuring of nccu
This document discusses the history and evolution of North Carolina Central University (NCCU) from its founding in 1909 to the present. It was established as the first public liberal arts institution for African Americans. Over time, NCCU has grown to offer bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees. While it has high freshman retention rates, it faces challenges like low graduation rates and lack of student access to technology. The document proposes that NCCU could address these issues by integrating learning technologies, social media, and internet technologies to diversify its student population and expand access to education.

Lights on Campus Proposal
The United Students Government at Buffalo State College is calling on faculty and staff to improve campus lighting in specific areas to increase student safety. They request lighting be added along pathways between buildings that currently have no lighting, such as between the Classroom and Technology buildings. They also ask that existing lamp posts alongside the Library and between North Wing and Porter Hall be upgraded with brighter bulbs. A petition signed by 100 students supports improved lighting between the Classroom and Technology buildings. The USG believes these lighting improvements will help students feel safer on campus.
The case of the student housing crisis in south africa
The document discusses the student housing crisis in South Africa and proposes e-learning as an alternative solution. It notes that the student housing backlog stands at 300,000 beds and that free higher education will likely increase demand further. To help address this, it suggests that universities investigate offering more programs through e-learning/distance learning rather than traditional brick-and-mortar schools. Successful examples from UNISA and UJ are mentioned. It proposes starting with postgraduate programs and setting up off-campus learning centers, and notes China's success in expanding access to education through this model. The conclusion is that South Africa needs more research on adopting e-learning solutions.
Impact of Covid-19 on Education Across the World
The global epidemic of the Corona virus has wreaked havoc on a variety of industries. One of them is the education industry. Due to Covid-19, governments all around the world have begun temporarily closing schools and colleges. School and university closures would not only have a short-term impact on the continuity of learning for India's more than 285 million young learners, but will also have far-reaching economic and societal ramifications as the days pass with no rapid way to stop the breakout of Covid-19.

oeb2012
This presentation is intended to put the recent U.S. movement toward Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) into perspective, assessing its effects on higher education in the U.S. and around the world. This presentation is informed in part by the University of California, Irvine’s (UCI) long-term involvement in the OpenCourseWare (OCW) and Open Educational Resources (OER) movements and its more recent experience in producing and offering seven MOOC courses through Coursera. This presentation goes beyond asking questions to making predictions that can guide institutional responses.

Online Learning Plenary Andrew Gossen
The document discusses the history and lessons learned from early online education programs. It notes that US colleges had invested $100 million in online courses by 2002 and $482 million in venture capital went to online learning companies in 2000. However, many early online education programs failed or were shut down between 1998-2001, including NYUOnline, Fathom, UMUC Online, and Virtual Temple. Survivors included for-profit eCornell and not-for-profit UMass Online and Penn State World Campus. Key lessons were that online education was not realistic as a profit center and enrichment programs had limited appeal - people wanted credit. Questions remaining included the format, funding, production, and defining success.
Bill 03.16 subscription for soft edge advocacy tool copy
The UPUA Governmental Affairs Committee has historically advocated for higher education issues through letter writing and phone banking. However, engagement has been low due to challenges in the legislative process. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for digital advocacy access. SoftEdge is a virtual advocacy tool that would allow students to track legislation, target legislators, and launch customizable advocacy campaigns by phone, email or social media. The UPUA used SoftEdge last year but engagement was lower than expected. Renewing the SoftEdge subscription for $2,700 would maintain an effective virtual advocacy method during the pandemic.
Eduation 2 MOOCS
The boundaries between education and entertainment are beginning to blur, as evidenced by a new online course based on the TV show The Walking Dead being produced through a partnership between television company AMC and the University of California. The course is expected to attract hundreds of thousands of students through its connection to the popular show. While academics insist the course will provide a legitimate educational experience covering various fields, students will not receive formal credits or qualifications. The university asserts the course modules will be as academically rigorous as those taught on campus. However, some experts question whether entertainment-focused online courses can deliver genuine learning given high dropout rates from MOOCs and the lack of assessment or student-teacher interaction.
Education in the Age of COVID-19
This document discusses the challenges faced by various stakeholders in education due to the transition to remote learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is based on surveys of students, teachers, and interviews with administrators. Some key points:
- Administrators struggled with communication, resource allocation, and student/teacher support. Effective communication requires transparency, input from all stakeholders, and ample response time for major decisions. Assessing student needs accurately is critical for equitable resource distribution.
- Teachers faced difficulties with communicating plans to students/parents, maintaining student engagement, and transitioning to digital tools with little training.
- Students and parents were concerned about equity issues, access to technology, and physical/mental health impacts of the isolation from

Flexible option: a direct assessment competency-based education model
The document introduces the University of Wisconsin's Flexible Option (UW Flex), a direct-assessment competency-based education model. UW Flex allows students to earn degrees and certificates by demonstrating mastery of competencies through assessments, rather than accumulating credit hours through courses. The model aims to serve nontraditional students by offering flexibility in pacing and learning pathways. Key aspects of the UW Flex model include competency-based curricula defined by subject matter experts, assessments to demonstrate competency mastery, and intensive academic coaching to support student success.
For-Profit Higher Education: The "Fit" Within Higher Education
This document provides an overview of for-profit higher education institutions, including their history, differences from non-profits, enrollment trends, finances, and current and future state. Some key points discussed are:
- For-profits have historically existed since the 17th century but saw major growth in the 1980s and 1990s due to factors like increased privatization and federal financial aid.
- They make up around 2.5% of total college enrollment but 10% of students seeking degrees. Their focus is often on working adults and minorities.
- For-profit institutions rely heavily on federal financial aid and have higher operating costs than non-profits, with much of their expenditures going to marketing.

Wr 323 the skyrocketing costs of college education
The document summarizes a student rally held at Portland State University (PSU) to protest rising college tuition costs. It notes that 400 students and instructors from PSU, Portland Community College, and Mount Hood Community College rallied at the PSU Park Blocks in February 2012 against increasing tuition rates and declining state funding for higher education in Oregon. The document also provides graphs showing substantial tuition increases at PSU, across Oregon colleges, and nationwide in recent decades far exceeding inflation rates. Additionally, it states that about 58% of PSU students graduate with an average debt of $22,440.
Wr 323 the skyrocketing costs of college education
High college tuition and student loan debt are causing problems for students and may lead to broader social issues. Most students graduate with $20,000-$30,000 in debt. They feel pressure and frustration over tuition hikes and debt. Combined student loan debt exceeds $1 trillion and some doubt the value of higher education. Potential problems include a debt crisis, high dropout rates especially for minorities, and effects on the job market if fewer students complete degrees. Students are calling for more government support to improve affordability and access to higher education.

This document summarizes a study that compared completion challenges facing regular and parallel degree students at Egerton University constituent colleges in Kenya. The study found that fewer parallel degree students received loans from HELB compared to regular students. Parallel students also had less access to morning/evening lectures, co-curricular activities, and course selection. They faced challenges accessing lecture halls, deans, lecturers, and libraries, impacting their completion rates compared to regular students. The study used questionnaires and documentation to examine the effect of financial challenges, access to teaching/learning resources, and student welfare on retention and completion rates.
An Increasing Cost of Higher Education...
The document discusses the rising costs of higher education in the United States. It notes that tuition has increased by more than 60% in six states and more than 20% in 29 states since 2008. It then discusses several reasons for increasing tuition, including growing demand for degrees due to their impact on earnings, costs of new technology and facilities, higher salaries for top faculty, and decreased state funding. Finally, it proposes some solutions to control costs, such as online courses, dual enrollment programs, three-year degree programs, renting textbooks, and earning income while in school.

IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON EDUCATION.pptx
The document discusses the impact of COVID-19 on education in India. It notes that the pandemic led to the closure of educational institutions, affecting over 1.3 billion learners globally including over 320 million in India alone. This forced education to shift to online and digital formats. Both positive and negative impacts are discussed. Positives include the rise of blended learning, improved mental health, and increased digital literacy. Negatives include unequal access to resources, increased isolation, and impact on assessments and employment. The government has launched initiatives like PM e-Vidya to promote continued education through digital and online means.
Anya Kamenetz DIYU at the 2011 WASC ARC
Colleges and universities today can no longer afford to conduct business as usual. The pressures of rising costs and ever-stronger mandates for accountability, access and success are too strong. Students, meanwhile, have urgent questions about the return on their investment and the relevance of the education they're receiving in a 21st century context. The way we connect, communicate, and access information is changing every day. When will these changes substantially affect education? Kamenetz addresses all these concerns and sets forth her vision of a future that includes personal learning networks, personalized learning paths, expanded peer learning and assessment, and learning that blends experiential and digital approaches. Faculty and administrators need to lead the way from the second to the "third horizon" of change by incorporating the seeds of future transformation while improving their institutions' working today.
Iu online-educ-strategic-plan-2011
The document is Indiana University's strategic plan for online education. Some of the main recommendations include establishing quality standards for online education equivalent to in-person programs, focusing online undergraduate offerings on alternative sections of popular courses rather than full degrees, and offering graduate programs and certificates online to meet the needs of Indiana residents and professionals in fields with large enough markets. It also recommends investing in instructional design support, technology support, and improvements to the online learning platform. The plan addresses issues like pricing, inter-campus coordination, and establishing a leadership office to oversee online education strategy and management.
Rising costs of college
This document discusses the rising costs of college education in the United States and potential solutions to control costs. It notes that college costs have increased over 1000% in the last 30 years, leaving many students with large amounts of debt that is difficult to repay. This student debt bubble could negatively impact the economy if it bursts. The document proposes several solutions, including forgiving student loans after a certain number of years, increasing tax credits for families paying for college, and controlling tuition costs by freezing tuition at public and some private schools. It advocates for students and families to vote for political candidates that support controls on college costs.
Online Learning and it’s consequences during Covid-19 (A Case Study of SZABUL)
The study aimed to understand students' perspectives on online learning during COVID-19 at Shaheed Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto University of Law (SZABUL) in Pakistan. An online survey was conducted of 100 SZABUL students across various departments. The results found that while most students had adequate internet access and skills, they faced challenges with online group assignments. Additionally, students perceived differences between classroom and online learning strategies and saw value in face-to-face interactions with instructors. The study concluded by recommending universities address issues hindering online collaboration, balance online and in-person learning, and further examine factors impacting online learning effectiveness.
globalization
Globalization poses challenges to school stakeholders like administrators, teachers, and students. Schools must actively respond to these challenges by developing an international outlook in their students through curriculum, activities, and language education. This will help prepare students as global citizens. Some key challenges for administrators include responding to trends like increasing enrollment, improving learning environments, and addressing issues like facilities, funding, technology, and unfunded mandates. Teachers face challenges like adapting to increasing diversity, managing time, and helping students meet long-term goals. Students deal with academic pressure, competition, health issues, peer pressure, addictions, and financial stability concerns.
Educational Landscape: Models and Technology (SNHU 2017)
This document summarizes an educational technology presentation given at SNHU. It discusses changes in online learning over the past 5-10 years, with three main implications. First, adoption of online learning is increasing but its impact has not fully revolutionized higher education. Second, the design of online learning platforms matters and is shifting beyond just digitizing traditional classes. Third, mobile devices and apps are becoming increasingly important for online students. The presentation argues we are in an inflection point driven by these technology changes and trends toward more personalized learning.
Persuasive
The document discusses the high cost of college tuition in the United States. It notes that tuition has increased 1,120% over the last 30 years, far surpassing rises in healthcare and housing. Americans now owe over $1 trillion in student loan debt, with the average student loan debt being around $26,000. This high tuition is causing students to graduate with large amounts of debt and making education less affordable and accessible. The document also examines causes like state budget cuts and rising spending, and proposes solutions like making community colleges free and controlling student loan rates.
Web 2.0 in Higher Education
The document discusses how online education is transforming colleges and universities in the United States. It begins by cautioning institutions not to "perfect the irrelevant" and to know what business they are in. It then provides statistics on internet and social media usage to illustrate how ready society is for online learning. Several studies are cited showing online and blended students perform equal or better than face-to-face students. Examples are then given of several universities that have experienced growth and strategic benefits from online education, including increased access, flexibility, and revenues. The document advocates for a focus on quality using a collaborative consortium approach.
Lessons Learned in Higher Education from the COVID-19 Crisis
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted education systems around the world, affecting over 1.6 billion students. While developed countries transitioned to online learning more smoothly, developing countries faced greater challenges due to limited internet access and infrastructure. This crisis presents both challenges and opportunities. It has highlighted inequities but also stimulated innovation. Moving forward, systems must focus on inclusion, addressing learning losses, and harnessing technology. Reimagining education through flexible learning pathways and unleashing innovation can help build back stronger.
E learning and blended learning
E-learning and blended learning are growing around the globe. E-learning has expanded significantly since the late 1800s as tools have enabled learning between instructors and learners separated by distance and time. It now offers diverse learners unlimited resources. E-learning is increasingly common in schools, public universities, and for-profit universities. While early online programs faced issues, e-learning can provide innovative, engaging, and personalized learning when done well. It allows acquiring new skills to be knowledgeable and productive citizens.
Explain the Current Issue in Higher Education (updated 2023).docx
The Current Issue in Higher Education
1. Affordability and Accessibility: The rising cost of tuition and the increasing burden of student loan debt have made higher education less affordable for many individuals. This has raised concerns about accessibility and the ability of students from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds to pursue a college education.
2. Student Success and Completion Rates: Many students face difficulties in completing their degree programs within the expected time frame. Factors such as academic preparedness, financial constraints, and lack of support systems can contribute to low graduation rates and impact student success.
3. Quality of Education: There are ongoing discussions about the quality of education in higher institutions. Concerns arise regarding outdated curricula, the relevance of courses to the job market, and the need to incorporate emerging technologies and interdisciplinary approaches to education.
MetroCard Proposal
The document proposes a Metrocard subsidization system for NYU students. It would provide Metrocards to students on financial aid who need to travel between multiple NYU campuses for classes in one day or who have off-campus academic requirements like internships. Students would fill out a form with their course schedules or internship details, have it approved by the registrar, and then receive a pre-loaded Metrocard for a 30-day period. This would help reduce transportation costs that are currently an unexpected financial burden for many students.
McKenna - Dissertation.May 2011
This document is a dissertation examining the Advancement via Individual Determination (AVID) program in a high-achieving suburban high school using social capital theory. The study involved interviews with 12th grade AVID students to understand how the program influenced their educational experiences and acquisition of social capital. The AVID program aims to increase the number of underrepresented students who enroll in four-year colleges. It provides academically challenging courses and comprehensive support. The dissertation explores how AVID supports students in developing social relationships and an academic identity to improve educational outcomes.
