Proofing Summary:
Hello Deanna,
Thank you for submitting your research paper.
Strengths:
You've begun to gather a lot of potentially useful information
here, including material from outside sources.
This helps to ensure there are plenty of detail to flesh out each
topic included in the discussion.

Suggestions:
-Thesis Statement
-Essay Structure
The thesis should be framed to match the type of essay you are
constructing, whether it be persuasion or
analysis functioning as the focus. Currently, the thesis states
what you will discuss but is not framed in a
manner that shows what type of essay you're constructing.
Several issues with organization, grammar and mechanics have
been noted throughout the essay. The
placement of quotes are important to the essay. Generally,
quotes should be avoid being placed at the start or
end of the paragraphs. Specific example are covered in the
essay.
If you would like to submit a revision of your paper, you are
welcome to do so. We look forward to helping you
succeed!

Consider avoiding quotes in the
introduction. The intro should be a basic
overview of the subject, to provide
general context that will help the reader
understand the subject you'll discuss.
Specific details on the subject should be
saved for the body paragraphs. The
thesis at the end of the introduction
should reflect the type of essay you're
constructing through its wording. For
example, if a persuasive essay is being
constructed, the thesis should present
the main idea of the paper as a claim on
the issue being discussed. This helps
clarify how the topics of discussion
should develop throughout the body

paragraphs.
Paragraphs should avoid ending with a
quote. There should be a statement after
each quote that gives your reason for
providing the comment, throughout the essay.
To ensure that sentence flow logically
throughout the paper, it would be
wise to end a sentence with a period
after it has expressed a full idea. This
helps to avoid issues with run-on
sentence throughout the paper.
page 3 / 11
The main ideas that function as the
topic sentences of each body
paragraph should allude to the

supporting ideas stated in the thesis
statement. This shows that the
concepts stated in the thesis are being
used to develop the essay.
The first-person perspective
should be avoided, unless stated
otherwise by your instructor.
First level heading should be centered
above the paragraph they pertain to
throughout the paper. level one through
four headings should all use bold
lettering throughout the paper in APA.
page 4 / 11
Quotes in the topic sentence
should be avoided. The topic
sentence should state the main

idea of the paragraph using your
own words. Quotes should come
after the focus of the paragraph
has been establish.
Et al. should be used for sources with
more than two authors after the first time
the source is cited. The first citations
using that source should state each
name.
page 5 / 11
It should always be clear what the subject of
a sentences is, especially when transitioning
to new topics. This makes it immediately
clear what the focus of the discussion is.
page 6 / 11

There is an issue with subject-verb
agreement in this statement. The
subject and verb in a sentence should
match in terms of number. If one is
plural the other should be plural as
well.
page 7 / 11
Typically, the conclusion is short in
length, a concise reiteration of the
key-points of your essay, without
including new information to develop. The
conclusion should restate the thesis,
briefly summarize the paper, and then

conclude with a lasting final statement

The conclusion should be a concise
reiteration of the key-points of your
essay, without including new information
to develop. The conclusion should

paper, and then conclude with a lasting
final statement

HEA 520 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
The final project for this course is the creation of a research
paper.
The landscape of higher education is constantly changing to
respond to internal and external factors such as shifting
demographics, federal and state government
regulations, state funding, educational system changes, and
costs. These factors produce both planned and unplanned
changes in the higher education
organization, which, in turn, impact students, employees, and
organizational health. To be effective leaders, higher education
administrators must be astute in
recognizing, naming, planning for, and responding to these
changes that impact the sociotechnical, structural, and cultural
systems of university organizations.
For the final project, you will create a research paper on a
contemporary national issue addressing the current shifts and

changing role of higher education in the
twenty-first century. You will analyze the historical and current
impact of the issue and associated trend on higher education
institutions, using empirical data to
illustrate how and why the trend impacts higher education
institutions now and in the future. You will conclude your
research paper by reflecting on the impact
of the issue on your personal educational and professional
experiences and pursuits.
The project is divided into three milestones, which will be
submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold
learning and ensure quality final
submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules
Two, Four, and Six. The final submission will be due in Module
Nine.
In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the
following course outcomes:
field
of higher education through the use of empirical data
improve achievement amongst underrepresented students in
higher education institutions
porary issues
influencing higher education and educational institutions’
missions, visions, and goals
field of higher education on decision-making trends in higher
education institutions

nalyze the current and projected impacts of contemporary
issues on twenty-first-century students and professionals in the
field of higher education
Prompt
Your research paper should answer the following prompt: You
will begin your project by selecting a contemporary issue that is
addressing current shifts and the
changing role of higher education in the twenty-first century.
Specifically, you must select an issue that is influencing
technological trends in the field. Your
instructor can assist you in your selection of an issue. Once you
select an issue, you will analyze the evolution of the issue and
its modern impact on higher
education institutions. To analyze the modern impact of the
issue on higher education institutions, you will use a sample of
institutions. You will create this
sample by randomly selecting higher education institutions
across the nation to study. You will then base your analysis on
this sample, drawing conclusions about
the trends in the institutions and the impact on the institutions
as a whole. To conclude your research paper, you will narrow
your focus of the issue to reflect on
the personal impact, thinking about your student and/or
professional experiences in higher education.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Historical Analysis: To begin, you will analyze the evolution
of your selected issue and associated trend.

a) Describe your selected national issue influencing the field of
higher education and the trend associated with the issue.
b) Analyze how the selected national issue has evolved
throughout history, identifying key influential factors and
events and supporting your
analysis with evidence.
c) Analyze how the associated trend has evolved throughout
history, identifying key influential factors and events and
supporting your analysis
with evidence.
II. Institutional Impact: In this section, you will analyze the
institutional impact of your selected issue using a sample of
higher education institutions. You
will create a sample by selecting higher education institutions
across the nation, identify themes throughout the sample, and
analyze the impact of the
issue on this sample to inform your conclusions.
a) Describe common themes in the missions, visions, and goals
of the institutions and explain how the identified issue impacts
each institution’s
ability to deliver on its mission, vision, and goals.
b) Describe the relevant state and federal policies that impact
the missions, visions, and goals of the institutions with respect
to the issue and
describe the impact of these policies.
c) Describe the role of technology in the institutions in relation
to the issue. Support your description with evidence. For
example, is technology
used to assist in curriculum delivery or student access?

d) Define the student demographics in your selected sample of
higher education institutions. Specifically, what groups are
underrepresented, and
how does this compare to national trends?
e) How can technology be used to improve student achievement
for the previously identified underrepresented students? You
might consider
technology as a tool to deliver curriculum.
f) Determine the impact of the issue on program offerings. What
assumptions are you making about the institutions’ decision-
making processes?
Support your conclusions with evidence. For example, has the
issue influenced institutions to offer specific programs?
g) Determine the impact of the issue on funding. What
making processes? Support
your conclusions with evidence. For example, has the issue
influenced institutions to enact new policies around funding, or
have sources of
funding changed?
h) Determine the impact of the issue on student outreach. What
making processes?
Support your conclusions with evidence. For example, has the
issue influenced institutions to organize specific student
activities or outreach
strategies?
III. Conclusion: Now that you have analyzed the impact of the
issue on the field of higher education, you will reflect on the

impact of the issue on your
student and/or professional experience.
a) Explain how your selected issue has personally impacted you
as a student and/or professional in the field of higher education.
For example, as a
student, the issue may have impacted your access to education
or the delivery of curriculum, or as a professional, the issue
may have impacted
your ability to fund your specific programs.
b) Describe how you might attempt to address the issue if you
were a high-ranking professional in a higher education
institution, explaining your
rationale. Consider state and federal regulations that may
impact your decision making.
c) Analyze the mission, vision, and goals of an institution where
you have experience, either as a student or employee, for how
the institution
addresses your selected contemporary issue. For example, are
there gaps among the mission, vision, and goals and the selected
issue?
d) Based on your analysis, predict the future direction of the
issue and its impact on you, either as an aspiring professional in
the field of higher
education or a professional currently in the field. For example,
how might the issue continue to evolve, and how will this
impact your
professional pursuits?

Milestones
Milestone One: Timeline
In Module Two, you will submit a visual timeline illustrating
the evolution of your selected issue and associated trend. This
timeline should show the progression
of a contemporary issue from its origin to its current state,
illustrating all the watershed events that led to the issue’s
current state. Be sure to provide enough
explanation within the timeline so the audience can follow the
information from beginning to end. This milestone will be
graded with the Milestone One Rubric.
Milestone Two: Presentation
In Module Four, you will submit a presentation about the
relevant state and federal policies that impact the missions,
visions, and goals of the sample
institutions you have chosen, with respect to the issue. Also,
describe the impact of these policies on the sample institutions.
You may use any type of software
application to create your presentation, such as Microsoft
PowerPoint or Prezi. This milestone will be graded with the
Milestone Two Rubric.
Milestone Three: Article Analysis on Technology in Curriculum
and Teaching
In Module Six, you will submit an article analysis. Critically
analyze a research article that focuses on your chosen
contemporary higher education issue related to
technology in curriculum and teaching. Determine the impact of
the issue on student outreach. Additionally, discuss how
technology can be used to improve
student achievement for underrepresented students.
The research article must be taken from one of the following
top-tier, peer-reviewed journals: Research in Higher Education,

Review of Higher Education, Journal
of Higher Education, or Peabody Journal of Education and
Teaching. An article analysis is the basic format of a literature
review for a single article. Select an
article from top-tier, peer-reviewed journals and discuss the
type of research, the research question, and the strengths and
weaknesses of the article’s impact on
the subject. This milestone will be graded with the Milestone
Three Rubric.
Final Submission: Research Paper
In Module Nine, you will submit your research paper. It should
be a complete, polished artifact containing all of the critical

Conclusion
The issue of technology as stated above has both positive and
negative impacts on students and the higher education
institutions as a whole. Personally, as a student, technology has
dramatically helped me in my education. It has made my work
easier as I can make my study plans very neat and efficiently as
well as it has greatly help me set study reminders. Besides,
communication has been made easier by the use of technology. I
can now contact my friends and classmates through phone calls,
text messages or the various social media platforms above all
we can form discussion groups and discuss online as well as
consult our tutors. If I were made a higher-ranking professional
ion any higher education institution, I would uphold the use of
technology in education because technology makes work easier
and faster for both students and tutors in the institutions

(Kirkwood& Price, 2014). Through technology, students can
undertake e-learning where the tutor can send notes and guides
through the internet and students will be able to read and even
do their examinations online then the tutor would mark and
submit the results online as well. This would save on time thus
making learning faster and easier. Technology is essential to all
aspects of human life. Therefore, education is not an exception
(Kirkwood& Price, 2014).
Tennessee University has a mission statement that states,
‘fosters scholarly inquiry and research’ (Williams, Morrell &
Mullane, 2014) this is possible through the use of technology in
higher education as a student can readily inquire and do
research through the internet. Its vision statement also promotes
the use of technology as the university aims at achieving
national and international prominence and building on its
heritage and preparing leaders for a global society (Williams,
Morrell & Mullane, 2014). The global community uses
technology in most of their life activities, and for one to reach
many people nationally and internationally easily and fast, they
can use technology, i.e., the internet. Therefore, by using
technology, Tennessee university can achieve their vision by
using technology. In the next ten years, almost all higher
education institutions will advocate for the use of technology by
both staff and students because the benefits overweigh the
downfalls.

Feedback:
Hello, Deanna,
I think this is a great outline for your conclusion. Pertaining to
the personal impact, I think it is a great start that you have.
However, I feel it can expand even more with an issue of
technology. The integration of technology has definitely
advance higher education to a new level, so there is definitely
more you can include concerning your personal impact. Sections
B and C have good depth to them through your references and
explanations- nice! The last section regarding a future
prediction needs to be expanded as well to include reasoning
and possibly the impact the evolution of the issue will have on
you personally (which is the example given in subsection D). I
think a future prediction section should have some sort of
reference to back up your prediction. Currently, it is just the
last sentence of your paragraph on the mission of Tennessee
University and it is missing a transition. Hope this helps and
I’m sure your paper with be awesome!
Hi Deanna, great start with your conclusion. It think going into
more detail in the section for addressing the issue. What
changes would you make to further implement technology into
courses. What learning platforms would you recommend if your
institutions was planning on expanding to online? Also, I think
you may want to add more information to the future of the
issue. What advancements to you see happening with
technology that will move higher education forward? Do your
foresee anything that would not benefit higher education with it
comes to technology?

Critical analysis
Davidson et al., (2014) investigates the implementation of
technology in instruction and teaching. The subject is the
investigation of technology in the education setup. The federal
government requires teachers to incorporate technology in the
education sector. In the extended range of the plan is that all the
teachers to be holders of a masters degree from certified
institutions(difficult to read) (Davidson, Richardson& Jones,
2014). The teachers that the government uses only those
teachers have skills that are useful in the century.
Davidson et al., (2014) try to investigate the issue on the
curriculum. The curriculum is the process of administering
education and curriculum covers all activities that revolve
around teaching. Education administrators formulate the
curriculums that the teachers must follow. Besides those that do
not follow the curriculum can have their licenses denied. In the
case, the administrators require the teachers in Texas to
incorporate technology in offering education (Davidson et al.,
2014). The administrators say that through the plan the learners
will acquire good education since the use of technology is
efficient.
In the study, primary method of study was a qualitative
approach. In the study, the authors explored the use of
technology as a tool for teaching two urban schools. The
samples of the study were the classroom and how the teachers
used technology in the school set-up. In the strategy, the
authors used inquiries and observations on the students. In the
research, the authors tried to investigate the reasons behind
teachers not using technology in the classroom (Davidson et al.,
2014). There was no manipulation of the setting since the
authors investigated the natural settings. The author used the
“multi-case study design” since he was trying to investigate two
samples at around the same time while trying to investigate the

same factor. The number of the participants was eight, and they
all taught English in the schools. Before the research, the
researchers obtained a permit from the administrators that
allowed them to carry out the study (Davidson et al., 2014).
The federal government provides a rule that the teachers must
use technology in offering instructions to the student. However,
the teachers in the regions are reluctant to utilize the
technology. Among the authors’ speculations was that
underutilization was due to the teachers or were the barriers in
the teachers. In the investigation, the author also tried to
investigate if the teachers had any suggestion in the utilization
of the projects (Davidson et al., 2014).
In future research, there is a need to investigate the best method
that the administrators can use to educate the teachers on the
use of technology. In the study, Davidson et al. (2014) found
out that the primary reason that there is an underutilization of
technology in the education setup is the lack of knowledge in
the teachers. Therefore, investigating the best method to
educate the teachers in the direction of the research. The
education administrators need to use the most appropriate way
to offer knowledge to the teachers to ensure that they utilize
technology in the classroom setup.
Technology and disabled students
At most times the students with disabilities do not receive
education on equal grounds like the other healthy children since
the students are disabled
(This description is empty.This statement should be re-worded,
it implies that disabled children are not healthy (which is false
& can be offensive to potential readers), also it implies that
they do not receive far treatment simply because of their
disability, when in actuality, accommodations can be provided
for disabled learners to ensure fairness in learning)

Besides, the teachers find it difficult to offer education to the
students with special needs since they lack knowledge on how
to handle the students. However, with the integration of
technology, the students will be able to learn effectively like
regular students. Incorporation of technology will assist the
students by replacing the feature that is missing in the student.
In an instance, a word processor and google voice recorder will
offer great help to the students who lack hands (Adyrkhaev,
2016). On the other hand, online classes will provide support to
those students who cannot move to the students(re-word). In the
situation, technology will offer the students with capabilities
like the other students. Secondly, the students will motivate the
students. Technology will assist the students with spelling
checkers, auto-corrects, an online dictionary.(reword…. How do
these online tools amount to "students helping students'?) Such
features would be difficult to perform without technology.
Thirdly, technology also provides portable note-taking devices
that make it possible for students to take notes like other
children (Adyrkhaev, 2016). An example is the Alpha-Smart
3000 keyboard that records notes from recording and converts
them to readable notes. Alpha-Smart 3000 device is more
comfortable to operate. Therefore, learners of all levels can
utilize the equipment. Lastly, technology will expand(tense
shift) the cognitive ability of the students since the computer
screens provide the visuals that would not be clear on drawing
with hands (Adyrkhaev, 2016). The strategy will increase the
overall outreach of the students since they are familiar with
technology in areas outside of school. Incorporating technology
will enhance learning since many of students in schools right
now are born in the computer era. Besides, technology also
provides technology(reword doesn’t make since) for remote
learning. Therefore, it will promote outreach.

Accreditation Timeline
Accreditation
1880s: The first regional accrediting agencies formed with
particular focus on educational standards and admissions
procedures.
The need to develop transfer of credit policies and equivalency
of degrees between the United States and foreign countries
drove the process towards national standards.
Accreditation
1912: 23 private career schools created ACICS (then called the
National Association of Accredited Commercial Schools),
which became one of the first national accrediting agencies.
1918: The American Council on Education (ACE) was formed
which is a national association for higher education institutions
interested in standardization, effectiveness and reducing
duplication in the accreditation process.
1930: accreditation had become a well established element of
the higher education landscape

Accreditation
1949: Efforts were underway to deal with the rapid expansion,
and the major national higher education associations came
together to create a national association on institutional
accreditation called the National Commission on Accrediting
(NCA).

Issues Influencing Higher Education
Deanna Buchanan
Higher education has a lot of issues. There are good issues and
some bad issues. The issues I will be speaking on can influence
higher education in a major way. One of the issues is
accreditation of university’s, and another issue is the rise of
tuition.
Accreditation shows the quality of higher education with a
university. If a college is not accredited, that can influence a lot
of things. According to About Accreditation | Council for
Higher Education Accreditation, some of the things that can
influence higher education:
· Students who want federal (and sometimes state) grants and
loans need to attend a college, university, or program that is
accredited.
· Employers ask if a college, university, or program is
accredited before deciding to provide tuition assistance to
current employees, evaluating the credentials of new employees,
or making a charitable contribution.
· The federal government requires that a college, university, or
program be accredited in order to be eligible for federal grants
and loans or other federal funds.
· State governments require that a college, university, or
program be accredited when they make state funds available to
students or institutions and when they allow students to sit for

state licensure examinations in some professional fields.
A rise in tuition is another factor that influences higher
education. Student loans are the biggest debt for college
graduates and college dropouts. Universities tuition is so high
people choose not to go, or they go and drop out because it is
not affordable. So now people are finding alternative routes to
attend school. So people attend a community college then
transfer to a four-year school so they will not collect so much
debt. Tuition play a major role in higher education.
Some of the universities I will be talking about is Tennesee
State University, Winthrop University, and Howard University.

Feedback that was giving to make paper better:
National Issue One: Description: You introduce 2 issues in your
assignment, however do not discuss their impact on higher
education today. For example, what are some current ways
(with citations) that debt is influencing enrollment, college
choice, poverty, etc?
National Issue Two: Description: Better job listing ways
accreditation influences higher education - a more specific
definition of accreditation is needed
