In an effort to create a more educated workforce in the United States, many community colleges are implementing new practices and strategies to assist under-prepared students. These efforts will ultimately support a stronger and more resilient global workforce. Examining the Impact of Community Colleges on the Global Workforce provides relevant theoretical and conceptual frameworks, best practices, and emerging empirical research about new approaches being employed in community colleges to prepare students for their post-collegiate careers.

The Effects of Structured Transfer Programs in Community Colleges
Author: Rachel BakerPublisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 7
Book Description
Many community college students begin with the intention of transferring to a four-year school but relatively few actually do. One hypothesis for the low rates of successful two-to-four year transfers is that academic program choices in community colleges are too numerous and too complex. In this paper, the author will address a longer term outcome of a state articulation policy in California (number of associates degrees granted) as well as the more proximate outcome (changes in course taking patterns) implicit in these more distal goals. She will also examine whether the reform is having heterogeneous effects on different demographic groups and different degree programs. Using data from California Community Colleges, the author will answer the following research questions: (1) Do structured academic transfer programs for community college students affect student outcomes and course-taking behavior?; and (2) Does a more structured transfer program affect the demographics (race, age, SES, prior education) of degree programs in community colleges and does it have larger effects on particular groups of students? The author worked closely with a community college district in Northern California. She used exclusively administrative data for this project. This study provides preliminary evidence that the introduction of Associates degrees for transfer had an effect on the behavior of students. Tables are appended.

Promising and High-Impact Practices: Student Success Programs in the Community College Context
Author: Gloria CrispPublisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1119319390
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
With calls for community colleges to play a greater role in increasing college completion, promising or high-impact practices (HIPs) are receiving attention as means to foster persistence, degree completion, and other desired academic outcomes. These include learning communities, orientation, first-year seminars, and supplemental instruction, among many others. This volume explores the latest research on: how student success program research is conceptualized and operationalized, evidence for ways in which interventions foster positive student outcomes, critical inquiry of how students themselves experience them, and challenges and guidance regarding program design, implementation and evaluation. This is the 175th volume of this Jossey-Bass quarterly report series. Essential to the professional libraries of presidents, vice presidents, deans, and other leaders in today's open-door institutions, New Directions for Community Colleges provides expert guidance in meeting the challenges of their distinctive and expanding educational mission.
