Cloth with dustjacket. Condition: Gut. XX, 342 p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Schutzumschlag berieben, Schutzumschlag am Buchrücken leicht bestoßen, Bleistifteintrag auf Vorsatz, sonst guter Zustand / dust jacket rubbed, dust jacket slightly scuffed at spine, pencil entry on endpaper, otherwise good condition. - Master's degrees have often been relegated to "second-class" or "consolation prize" status by administrators and faculty in higher education. But the first major study of master's education in more than thirty years recently made headlines by calling the degree the "silent success" of American higher education. In a lead editorial about the study, the Washington Post agreed that the master's degree is "academia's secret weapon" and an important "bridge to the rest of the world." In A Silent Success, Clifton Conrad, Jennifer Grant Haworth, and Susan Bolyard Millar present the results of their ground-breaking study of master's education in the United States. Basing their discussion on interviews with nearly 800 people in a variety of fields, the authors identify key decisions that shape master's experiences and develop a typology of master's programs. In doing so, they establish the surprising extent to which students, program alumni, faculty, and employers value master's education. They find widespread agreement about the positive outcomes of master's education: refined analytical skills, "big picture" perspectives, connections between theory and practice, and improved communication and professional skills. A Silent Success concludes with a discussion of the characteristics of high-quality programs and with specific recommendations for strengthening master's education. The authors urge administrators to recognize the importance of master's education and terminal master's programs. They call on state and federal policymakers to provide greater financial support for master's students particularly in fields such as nursing, education, and environmental studies. They encourage employers to provide flexible and supportive lea policies, as well as strong financial and in-house support. Finally, they invite students themselves shape their master's experiences by joining student organizations, organizing colloquia, and nurturing collaborative learning experiences. / Contents List of Tables Foreword Preface Acknowledgment ts Part One: The Setting 1.
