Student Success Is a Community Responsibility

Recently I visited my hometown, Birmingham, Alabama. I know about middle school second grader of the public school in the city. I noticed that I recalled my experience as a 12 year old child in the city and took part in the children of 1963 in March for better education. I kept thinking when I was sitting there.

Today, I have only about half of college students in my six years and my college completion rate is much lower. For example, about 59% of students who graduated from a four-year college graduate from college within 6 years, but only 40% of African-American graduates. Income gaps are equally amazing. More than 80% of Americans with the highest incomes acquired a bachelor 's degree at the age of 24. In contrast, it is less than 10% of the lowest income quarter. Clearly, increasing opportunities to enter the university is not enough.

To ensure students' success, various strategies are needed, from deepening their understanding of their strengths and challenges, to supporting teachers and teacher development. Any solution should start with this idea. In order to receive university education it is necessary for many students to work hard and agree that they often fall into debt. Success is not accepted. As a society, we must be pleased to see the mirror. When we make a strategy we need to listen to the opinions of students and their families.

Most importantly, we take care of the local community and make the residents regard the success of the students as collective responsibility. I learned at Birmingham and I learned that at university, young people need to be able to support their adults by setting expectations and helping them develop critical thinking and self-awareness It was. A comprehensive public policy that encourages cooperation between leaders and practitioners in all fields such as K - 12, two - year, four - year institutions, companies, government agencies, non - profit organizations is necessary. Since we work on addressing inequality in education, there is no quick solution. There was not a quick fix 50 years ago. However, after decades of efforts and efforts, we have made progress.

Answer please. There is no doubt that it is the responsibility of the advocate to raise the focus on the success of the students of the community college, which has led to a positive change in institution. However, community colleges will never be accused of being casual for student success. Indeed, there is no more place for higher education to make more successful dialogue, no more effort to help students of higher education achieve. One of the greatest benefits of community college - focused on excellent education - has been revealed as a loophole in the past few years. Community colleges have never had the resources to conduct vertical, inter-institutional and rigorous research on their students and educational institutions. As a result, community colleges are currently obliged to postpone survey results and recommendations from university researchers and almost all outsiders who are funding problems.

This book has both an open college policy and a "full agenda".

Community college students tend to have higher performance than college students of four-year college. According to Columbia University Institute of Calcagno Bailey's "Impact of Institutional Factors on the Community College Student's Success", the scale of large classes is negatively correlated with the success rate of students compared to students of small universities there is. Unlike 4-year universities, community colleges can adopt more personalized learning methods and help students easily enter new academic settings. Students of 4 year college studies thoroughly and expects to know how to swim

Regular attendance and consistent learning are the student's responsibility and are two factors that will affect the success of the university. College students are expected to participate in all his / her courses. Each student is responsible for knowing the attendance policy and absence policy of each class in which they are registered. 2. Even if classes are absent, students do not promote progress on the course, so even if they are not "rejected" there is no more serious than "use". Participation in the course and extracurricular activities are considered an integral part of the student's overall educational experience. Since such participation is not considered absent, teacher's prior approval is required
