Creating an Online Community College Course for High School Students
(7 Pages, 83.65 USD)
|
|
This 7 page report discusses a case study in which a community college wants to create a course for high school seniors in a particular region outlining what students should expect regarding a college education. With an effective Internet presence, the college believes it can help these students understand the challenges of college, how to meet those challenges, and, hopefully, choose their institution as the place to begin their college career. However, marketing the community college is very much secondary to exposing students to topics such as how to choose classes, how to budget both time and finances, and choosing a major.

The Texas Response to Ending School Quotas
(5 Pages, 59.75 USD)
|
|
5 pages in length. Examines the Hopwood case and affirmative action ruling as applied to Texas colleges and universities. While some find it interesting that a southern state is actively interested in pursuing minority attendance at colleges and universities, it is not at all an unusual occurrence. Because minorities make up a substantial number of the Texas population, by adding these minorities to the attendance at Texas colleges and universities this will drive the enrollment up. This in turn creates more funds for the institution. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

The Electoral College
(22 Pages, 262.9 USD)
|
|
A 22 page paper. Every time the presidential election is close, there is a movement to eliminate the Electoral College. The 2000 presidential election brought another wave of criticism and calls to abolish this election process. Would that be a good idea? Would plurality elections, one person, one vote, be more democratic? This essay explains what the electoral college is and how it works. The writer discusses the origins of the Electoral College and why our founding fathers chose to use the electoral college instead of another system, such as a plurality vote. Lastly, the writer discusses why it works and reports the election disputes in the history of the country; the Electoral College could be blamed for only one of the few disputes in history.

African Americans' College Enrollment
(8 Pages, 95.6 USD)
|
|
An 8 page research proposal seeking to determine why more African American students do not seek college admission. Black and white Americans enjoyed momentary equality in terms of enrollment in colleges and universities in 1976. That equality was short lived as disparities grew until 1982, when the racial gap between African American and white students grew to 10 percent. All college enrollment has increased in recent years; African American students have made the greatest gains among minority students. By 2003, the racial gap had declined to less than 8 percent and 54.8 percent of all African American students completing high school entered college during their first year after high school. There is some evidence that the state of the national economy may be a predictor of African American college enrollment, but there is also evidence that African American students are discouraged from attending college in the form of negative messages regarding likelihood of success. Bibliography lists 5 sources. Includes an abstract.

American Colleges Should Rank Themselves.
(5 Pages, 59.75 USD)
|
|
(5 pp) Current college accreditation methods must change. College accreditation started off with the right idea, but now college ivy now hides its original goal and clouds an educational institution's mission statement as well as its methods towards accomplishing its perceived goals. Part of this murkiness is that the evaluation team or accreditors evaluate a college based on collegiality and assistance, avoiding all hint of comparisons among supposed equals. Comparisons of multiple factors are necessary if parents and students are to base their educational needs on informed choices. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Nursing Shortage/Shortage of Faculty
(8 Pages, 95.6 USD)
|
|
An 8 page research paper that discusses the nursing shortage and how it relates to a similar shortage of nursing educators. In order make-up for the tremendous nursing shortage that is evidence across the country, universities and colleges are offering a greater number of accelerated baccalaureate nursing programs, according to the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (Martin 5). Yet despite the increasing number of such programs, shortfalls in the number of nurses needed to fill vacancies still exist. Exacerbating the problem of the nursing shortage is the fact that is also a shortage of nursing faculty. Examination of this problem shows that the first, and perhaps the most crucial step, in solving the nursing shortage is to increase the number of number of nursing faculty members in order to break a negative cycle that is powering this national healthcare crisis.
