Khattab, Nabil; Fenton, Steve – Globalisation, Societies and Education, 2016
In this paper, we argue that the power structure that lies within the UK elite universities dictates a division of labour through which the inflows of overseas academics into the UK academic labour markets are skewed towards these elite academic institutions where they are employed primarily in research-only posts. These posts, are less valued and…

Eudey, T. Lynn; Kerr, Joshua D.; Trumbo, Bruce E. – Journal of Statistics Education, 2010
Null distributions of permutation tests for two-sample, paired, and block designs are simulated using the R statistical programming language. For each design and type of data, permutation tests are compared with standard normal-theory and nonparametric tests. These examples (often using real data) provide for classroom discussion use of metrics…

Liu, Richard; Sanders, Jack – Research in Higher Education, 1984
A simplified example of a technique, conceived by Yates and later developed by Goodman and Haberman, for the determination of appropriate log-models in the measurement of qualitative data in higher education is presented. (Author/MLW)

Rassuli, Ali; Manzer, John P. – Journal of Education for Business, 2005
Considerable attention has been given to the efficacy of team-learning pedagogy, yet the methodology remains underused among educators in institutions of higher education. We suggest that the perception of success is antecedent to greater acceptance and use of this teaching style. Educators and students alike must experience the value creation…

Munley, Patrick H. – Teaching of Psychology, 2002
Focuses on the importance of teaching graduate students more about research. Discusses the content of a counseling psychology research seminar in which the students read articles from the "Journal of Counseling Psychology." Included readings on research design and methodology and multivariate statistical procedures. (CMK)

Yun, John T.; Moreno, Jose F. – Educational Researcher, 2006
Race-inclusive admissions policies are important tools for attaining equitable access to selective colleges and universities. However, access to such institutions does not begin at the point of admissions. Rather, it depends on an interaction between the K-12 system and university admissions policies that may either mitigate inequalities or…

Brint, Steven; Riddle, Mark; Hanneman, Robert A. – Sociology of Education, 2006
This article introduces cluster analysis and reference set analysis as tools for understanding structure, identity, and aspiration in complex organizational fields. Cluster analysis is used to identify the structure of the organizational field in American four-year colleges and universities. The article shows that presidential choices of reference…

Risucci, Donald A.; Tortolani, Anthony J. – Academic Medicine, 1990
The paper reviews a construct validation framework for research on the selection and evaluation of residents. The application of the proposed methodology to surgery residents is described. The need to measure non-cognitive and neuropsychological factors in addition to cognitive knowledge and technical ability is emphasized. (Author/MLW)

Abadzi, Helen – Journal of College Student Personnel, 1980
International student admissions in universities can be facilitated by multivariate statistical procedures. On the basis of existing data on student characteristics, predictions can be made regarding performance of applicants. These predictions consider personal variables, knowledge of English, and various indicators of academic performance.…

Bajgier, Steve M.; Atkinson, MaryAnne – Collegiate Microcomputer, 1989
Describes the use of a simulated learning environment (SLE) as an instructional aid in teaching multivariate statistics, particularly inferential statistics. A prototype microcomputer-based SLE called MVWORLD developed at Drexel University for upper level statistics courses is explained, and implementing a statistics laboratory for multivariate…

Wholeben, Brent Edward – 1984
This paper defines, develops, and displays a mathematical modeling formulation for exploring decisions available to the higher educational administrator in evaluating discrete educational program budgets (instructional, service, and administrative) for possible future funding alternatives. Complex budget reduction strategies can be…

Frick, Theodore W. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1992
Discussion of expert systems and computerized adaptive tests describes two versions of EXSPRT, a new approach that combines uncertain inference in expert systems with sequential probability ratio test (SPRT) stopping rules. Results of two studies comparing EXSPRT to adaptive mastery testing based on item response theory and SPRT approaches are…

Hanna, Margo – Campus-Wide Information Systems, 2004
Higher education (HE) is becoming a big business, with huge investments in IT technology supporting online learning. With the awareness of the knowledge economy has come a growing consciousness that HE constitutes a large industry or economic sector in its own right. In a marketing fashion, we understand that some customers present much greater…
