The Condition of Education in Rural Schools
Author: Joyce D. Stern
Publisher: Improvement of Practice
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
This report focuses on the status of rural education and is intended to provide information to education researchers, policymakers at the federal and state levels, as well as others concerned about issues in rural education. Specifically, the goal is to increase federal policymakers' attention to rural education problems, promote improvements in rural schools, and stimulate further research on rural education. This report documents how rural conditions are sufficiently different from urban ones to warrant being examined independently, and it endorses the hypothesis that a single set of public policies may not adequately address educational issues in rural versus urban settings. National data, mainly from surveys by the National Center for Education Statistics, are synthesized covering the following topics: (1) economic and demographic context of rural education; (2) location and characteristics of rural schools and school districts; (3) relationship between the rural school and its community; (4) policies and programs benefiting rural education; (5) profiles of educators in rural schools; (6) effects of education reform in rural schools; (7) public school finance policies and practices affecting rural schools; (8) assessment of student performance in rural schools; (9) education and work experiences of rural youth; and (10) the future of rural education. The report contains numerous data tables and a section describing statistical data sources and methodology. (LP)

Investigating Differences Between Rural and Non-rural Students
Author: Christian B. Sinnott

ISBN:
Category : Academic achievement
Languages : en
Pages : 58
Book Description
Rural students have lagged behind non-rural students in matriculation into higher education, as well as in completion of four-year degrees. The current studies sought to investigate academic readiness, academic performance, and psychological differences between rural and non-rural students at Oregon State University. Rural and non-rural students were compared during spring term of the 2014-2015 academic year, as well as during the fall term of the 2015-2016 academic year. No significant differences were observed between rural and non-rural students' levels of academic readiness prior to entering Oregon State University, nor their academic performance in introductory-level psychology courses. The only psychological difference observed between rural and non-rural students concerned grit; a measure of one's ability to persist through hardship in completion of a goal. Implications of these findings on future research and interventions are discussed.

Book Description
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether practice setting has an influence on several aspects of school psychologists' professional lives including job satisfaction, roles, and challenges. The survey created was modeled on the Job Satisfaction Scale (Warr, Cook, & Wall, 1979), the NASP 5-year survey (Curtis, Castillo, & Gelley, 2012), and Graves, Proctor and Aston's (2014) survey of urban practitioners. Results indicated that practice setting has a significant relationship with aspects of job satisfaction, challenges, and roles performed. Implications of these results are discussed and suggestions for future research are outlined.
