Factors Affecting Student Success in Associate-Degree Nursing Programs Introduction to the Problem The rate of academic attrition is an overwhelming concern that many associate degree nursing programs are facing. Undergraduate nursing program attrition rates continue to increase, despite the high demand for student placement in these programs. High attrition rates in nursing students of as much as 50% have been reported by some schools in certain states (Benn & Pacquiao, 2010). Additionally,
Literature Review Willis and Carmichael (2011) presented foundlings stating that attrition is defined by the experiences gathered in the doctoral study rather than the stage at which erosion occurs. The study share relevant similarities to previous research, indicating perverse experiences could lead to pessimistic outcomes regardless of the field or stage of the doctorate program (Willis and Carmichael, 2011). The theoretical foundations of this case study support the synthesis arguments of Hoskins
Student Retention in Universities A Literature Review Benjamin J. Curran Corona del Sol Preparatory Academy Author’s Note This paper is written for Professor Johnson’s fourth hour English 102 Class Student Retention in Universities Over half of first time undergraduate students fail to obtain a degree within a six year time period. Premature exit of university students has stumped even the most dedicated analysts. Extensive theories have surfaced in an effort to elucidate student attrition
This framework might be relevant to the current study as students in their second year of college have many decisions to make. It is a time when these students are achieving competence and developing autonomy (Lemons & Richmond, 1987). Difficulties arise such as in choice of core curriculum courses or in maintaining interpersonal relationships which can precipitate crises of confidence (Boivin, Fountain, & Baylis, 2000). No longer having the support of “the fabricated society” (Margolis, 1976) of
competition has made student attrition a concern for colleges and universities. Attrition is costly and generates considerable concerns for educational institutions (Tinto, 1993). This is especially true for small schools that do not have huge endowments, and must depend upon tuition and fees to support programming. The loss of students has a detrimental impact upon budgeting as the costs involved in recruiting new students is definitely higher than the cost to retain existing students (Braunstein, Lesser
U02a1 Building Your Literature Review Plan: Part One - Sheila Darden The plan to collect and organize literature that explains the history of retention starts with the collections of scholarly, peer reviewed articles that provide insight to the history of retention. The literature will be organized alphabetically at first then to gain a better insight into the history of retention the collections of scholarly, peer review articles will be organized according to the date they were published. The
also keeps its prior ones on its website, and provides information of standard that was used for the study review for each intervention report. The standards and procedure system enables the WWC to do objective and consistent reviews for thousands of studies as well as facilitate the usage of this website. The current review procedure consists of four steps. First, the WWC develops the review protocol. By creating the protocol, the reviewers define the parameters for the research, such as the type
