Measuring Adjunct Instructor Job Satisfaction

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Over the last several years, colleges and universities have used more adjunct instructors than ever before due to tighter budget constraints. Because of this increase, the relationship between job satisfaction and job performance will have a major impact on institutions of higher education. Institutions must prepare the adjunct instructor in the best possible manner to obtain the greatest benefit for the university as well as its students. Herzberg`s theory is based on the idea that motivation and hygiene factors impact the employee`s job satisfaction. An increase in hygiene factors will lead a dissatisfied and unmotivated employee to find saisfaction in their work. Without an increase in motivation factors tough, the employee will be unmotivated to make improvements in their professional career. This text includes a survey based on Herzberg`s motivation-hygeine theory that was administered to adjunct instructors. Adminstrators of both two and four-year institutions will benefit from the results of the survey. ····· 10361950

This is a good resource for women aspiring to occupy administrative positions in education. Using a mixed methods approach, the author explores the challenges and the opportunities for women aspiring to executive leadership in the American schools. Roger C. Shouse, PhD, Professor of Education, The Pennsylvania State University. As women become more and more prevalent in leadership roles, research regarding the barriers and opportunities to female advancement in educational leadership positions becomes more important. One obvious reason is to further understand what barriers exist, how prominent each barrier is in constraining women from entering school administration at different levels, and how these barriers differ based on demographic location. Moreover, the strategies used by women aspiring to administrative positions in education have much to teach other women seeking to obtain equal positions.I believe that we need to incorporate this issue into the preparation programs of school administrators. ····· 10361879

Charter Schools

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Charter schools have been the focus of a cover story in Time and from page stories in the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal. With the approval of President Clinton, a charter school grant program was first introduced by Republican Senator Dave Darenburger of Minnesota in 1991. Since then the charter school movement is one of the fastest growing education reforms in U.S. and has strong appeal at all levels of the education system, from local communities to the U.S. Congress. The charter school movement also has bipartisan support nationally and in the states that have enacted charter school laws. The federal government encourages the development and implementation of charter schools through the Public Charter Schools Program, a major grant program administered by the U.S. Department of Education.Ted Kolderie, one of the creators of the charter school concept, defines charter school as an autonomous, results-oriented, publicly funded school of choice that is designed and run by teachers or others under contract or `charter` with a public sponsor. The expectation is that these schools meet the terms of their charter or face closure by their authorizing bodies. ····· 10361871

The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the factors that influence distance learners intention to use mobile learning via SMS technology. The study was conducted in the School of Distance Education, Universiti Sains Malaysia based on a sample of 51 distance learners having the experience of using SMS-learning in their respective distance learning courses. The study employed the Technology Acceptance Model as a research framework, extended with two proposed external variables: the design of SMS-learning content and perceived convenience of SMS-learning. The study was conducted using online survey research methodology employing questionnaires with a 5-point Likert scale technique. The results which were analysed using Partial Least Squares technique revealed that strong relationships existed between design of learning contents and perceived ease of use. The value of R2 further revealed that the two predictor variables: perceived convenience and perceived usefulness explained 77.2% of the variance in distance learners intention to use SMS-learning. This implies that mobile learning is highly endorsed as long as it provides convenience and usefulness to the users. ····· 10361849

Coffee Trap:

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The current change in economic, social and environmental conditions worldwide has fostered major adjustments to farmers all over the world. Farmers have been forced to make adjustments in order to ensure that they fit in new settings. Recently, coffee production in Tanzania has remained stagnant because of problems including aging coffee trees, increasing production costs, decrease in return and unreliable market. Farmers have been forced not only to change their mode of farming but also to formulate different activities as alternatives against falling coffee earnings. These efforts are meant to assist the farmers in Mbinga to come out of what now seems to be the coffee trap . Findings confirm why Coffee farmers in Mbinga have maintained coffee cultivation: despite fluctuation in producer prices and increase in costs of production, coffee income is higher than any other non-coffee source bearing in mind that there is no feasible alternative to coffee cultivation. Therefore, coffee farmers in Mbinga can do better by learning how to live and cultivate coffee more profitable. Moreover, the newly opening window of speciality coffee is another option which coffee farmers can venture. ····· 10361844

Quantification of Mechanical Properties of MWCNTs by SEM Analysis

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Carbon based nano materials such as single, double and multi-walled carbon nanotubes serve as fundamental building blocks for NEMS. Though carbon based nano structures are relatively new breed of materials, but they are extremely important for mechanical and materials industries and for the fabrication of semi-conductor hybrid devices as well as future nano computers. There is a challenging lack in understanding the complex mechanism that involves and controls the mechanical properties of vertically aligned multi-walled carbon nanotubes (VAMWCNTs). For several applications in the regime of micro and nano electro-mechanical systems, it is crucial to understand the combined behavior of CNT turfs rather than analyzing only the properties of a single carbon nanotube as multi-walled convoluted and intricate turf structures yield properties different to those shown by single walled carbon nanotubes. This book is an effort to quantify and characterize the `ruling` parameters that play the most important role in controlling the mechanical response of MWCNTs. Extremely useful stereology-assisted experimental techniques are presented to study SEM micrographs of MWCNT turf structures. ····· 10361825

This study investigated the problem solving processes and behaviours exhibited by Grade 6 pupils during the process of problem solving in mathematics. The data were gathered through the use of an observation checklist on which problem solving processes and behaviours shown by participants were immediately recorded. Twenty five pupils of mixed ability of Tafira Primary School in their second term in 1999 made up the sample for this study. These participants were observed and the data coded on observation checklists. The data were analysed qualitatively using the descriptive mode. The results highlighted that during the process of problem solving, children employed problem solving processes and exhibited behaviours consistent with problem solving in small cooperative groups in the learning of mathematics. The results also show that the use of problem solving processes by learners is a result of practice and experience in actual problem solving. The awarding of scores in problem solving for moving a step towards problem resolution or complete resolution is motivational on the part of the learners. ····· 10361763

There are many African-American male initiatives in colleges and universities across the Country. Google any one of them and you will find that Black males are being targeted by a whole host of college and universities Coordinators, Directors, Deans, faculty, and administrators. Some are successful, some are not. However, what is most striking is that these institutions understand that problems exist. They understand that the low graduation, persistence, and completion rates of Black males are not a Black problem, but a national problem. This Book examines the retention, completion, and engagement efforts at a Texas two-year historically urban Black Community College. This review of the research literature is a digest of relevant studies and monographs about African American male student success in an urban community college setting. Existing models and theories about student persistence and success at four-year institutions exist, but there are careful distinctions between findings relative to community colleges as well as findings pertinent to African American men as compared to White and Hispanic men, and African American women in this post-secondary landscape. ····· 10361710

The study was conducted to explore and examine the teachers perceptions of the nature of science and its influence on the teaching and learning of secondary school Physics. The perception of the learners and teachers considered in this study is the cognitive experimental process within which a teacher/learner psychologically reaches out his/her environment. He/she encounters some aspects of it, brings those aspects into relationship with himself/herself in relation to what he/she makes of them and realizes the consequences of the entire process. Learning is a perceptional organization and reorganization of behaviours. Teaching is a planned and purposively learners-teacher interaction and contact with an intention of closing the gap between them. Classroom-learning environment is the locality or place where learning occurs. The study particularly sought to explore the teachers perceptions of the nature of Science and its influence on the teaching and learning of secondary school Physics. The study was conducted using a cross- sectional survey design coupled with a descriptive approach to strengthen the quantitative data. ····· 10361688

A skill is the learned capacity to carry out pre-determined results often with the minimum outlay of time, energy, or both. Skills can often be divided into domain-general and domain-specific skills. For example, in the domain of work, some general skills would include time management, teamwork and leadership, self motivation and others, whereas domain-specific skills would be useful only for a certain job. Skill usually requires certain environmental stimuli and situations to assess the level of skill being shown and used. People need a broad range of skills like Life Skills, Soft Skills, Communication Skills and Employability Skills in order to contribute to a modern economy and take their place in the technological society of the 21st century. A joint ASTD and U.S. Department of Labor study showed that through technology, the workplace is changing, and identified 16 basic skills that employees must have to be able to change with it. The importance of continued training and skill development has been highlighted by a recent international workplace survey that shows approximately nine out of ten Indian respondents believe their current skills will be outdated within five years. ····· 10361632
