Indiana, the State and Its Educational System
Author: Harold L. Hodgkinson
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 20
Book Description
Much of Indiana is sparsely populated and is concerned with agricultural activity; 70 percent of the state's population lives in its 13 metro areas. Partly because residents have done well without high levels of education, a small proportion of adults possess college degrees. Currently, many new jobs in Indiana are at the low end of services that pay very little compared with the manufacturing jobs they are replacing. If the state is to develop a healthy and diverse economy, it must build a "middle" into its service and work force. Due to declining white birth rates, minorities are increasingly becoming an important part of Indiana's future. A greater diversity of students without corresponding diversity within the school faculties to teach and to serve as appropriate role models could reduce the retention rate to high school graduation. Indiana's 72 institutions of higher education seem unusually attractive to nonresident students; thus, enrollment has remained fairly constant in numbers of students. Moreover, public higher education funding has been increasing. An increasingly important item for strategic planning in Indiana's institutions of higher education is the flexibility offered by the state's comparatively low tenure rate. (11 references) (KM)

Financing American Higher Education in the Era of Globalization
Author: William Zumeta
Publisher: Harvard Education Press
ISBN: 1612502539
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
This ambitious book grows out of the realization that a convergence of economic, demographic, and political forces in the early twenty-first century requires a fundamental reexamination of the financing of American higher education. The authors identify and address basic issues and trends that cut across the sectors of higher education, focusing on such questions as how much higher education the country needs for individual opportunity and for economic viability in the future; how responsibility for paying for it is currently allocated; and how financing higher education should be addressed in the future.

The Politics of Performance Funding for Higher Education
Author: Kevin J. Dougherty
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 1421416913
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
The first nation-wide analysis of the politics of performance funding in higher education. Performance funding ties state support of colleges and universities directly to institutional performance on specific outcomes, including retention, number of credits accrued, graduation, and job placement. The theory is that introducing market-like forces will prod institutions to become more efficient and effective. In The Politics of Performance Funding for Higher Education, Kevin J. Dougherty and Rebecca S. Natow explore the sometimes puzzling evolution of this mode of funding higher education. Drawing on an eight-state study of performance funding in Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Washington, Dougherty and Natow shed light on the social and political factors affecting the origins, evolution, and demise of these programs. Their findings uncover patterns of frequent adoption, discontinuation, and re-adoption. Of the thirty-six states that have ever adopted performance funding, two-thirds discontinued it, although many of those later re-adopted it. Even when performance funding programs persist over time, they can undergo considerable changes in both the amount of state funding and in the indicators used to allocate funding. Yet performance funding continues to attract interest from federal and state officials, state policy associations, and major foundations as a way of improving educational outcomes. The authors explore the various forces, actors, and motives behind the adoption, discontinuation, and transformation of performance funding programs. They compare U.S. programs to international models, and they gauge the likely future of performance funding, given the volatility of the political forces driving it. Aimed at educators, sociologists, political scientists, and policy makers, this book will be hailed as the definitive assessment of the origins and evolution of performance funding.
