Download or read book The Collegiate Athlete at Risk written by Morris R. Council and published by IAP. This book was released on 2018-09-01 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are numerous books documenting the challenges of student athletes and presenting recommendations for academic success. They primarily focus on understanding the issues of student-athletes and recommendations are oftentimes overly simplistic, failing to explicitly provide interventions that can be executed by student-athlete support personnel. In addition, the topic of supporting student-athletes who are academically at risk and/or are diagnosed with high incidence disabilities has been overlooked by scholars resulting in few publications specifically focusing on providing strategies to the staff/personnel who serve these populations. The general target audience is college/university practitioners who interface with student-athletes who demonstrate academic and social risk in the realm of athletics. These stakeholders include but are not limited to: academic support staff, student athletes, parents, coaches, faculty/educators, counselors, psychologists, higher education administrators, student affairs professionals, disability services coordinators/personnel, as well as researchers who focus on education leadership, sports, and special education. All of these groups are likely to find this book attractive especially as they work with student-athletes who are at-risk for academic failure. Also, it is ventured that this book will become the staple text for the National Association of Academic Advisors (N4A), the official organization for all personnel who work in collegiate academic support and can be used by members of intercollegiate athletic associations to reform policies in place to support at-risk student-athletes.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although very few college athletes ever enter the professional world of athletics, they remain more focused on their athletic performance than on their academic achievement (Comeaux, 2013; Lawrence, Ott, & Hendricks, 2009; Ridpath, 2010). College athletes who attend Division I, II, and III institutions receive numerous resources to succeed academically, including academic advisement, tutoring, and early class enrollments (Burns, Jasinski, Dunn & Fletcher, 2013; Carodine, Almond, & Gratto, 2001; Kelo, 2005; Ridpath, 2010). These resources cannot, however, offset criticism regarding their continued poor academic performance (Feinberg, 2009). The following research questions guided this study: 1. Are there differences in which academic services are most commonly offered with respect to Division status? 2. What is the relationship between academic support services and the following demographic variables: institution type (public vs. private), Division (I, II or III), years of advising experience and gender? 3. How do academic advisors perceive the academic advising process for Division II and III college athletes? This multiphase, sequential, mixed methods study (qualitatively dominant) included academic advisors from Division I, II and III institutions, drawn from two national associations (N4A and NACADA). Phase I consisted of N=2 elite informant interviews; Phase II administered a survey questionnaire with N=165; Phase III consisted of N=7 semi-structured interviews purposefully selected from Phase II. Phase IV administered a reflective questionnaire (N=9). Boyatzis’ (1998) thematic analysis approach was applied to Phases I, III, and IV data. The researcher utilized SPSS to conduct descriptive statistics, t-tests, and one-way analysis of variance followed by Scheffe’ post-hoc tests for Phase II. Statistically significant relationships were found between academic advisors and student athlete relationships and by institution type, number of academic services offered by division, and in the offering of Special Academic Orientation Programs. No statistically significant findings were round between mails and females. Qualitative results generated four themes: a) resources and partnerships, 2) central hub of communication, 3) teaching skills for success and 4) accountability. Connected findings suggest that advisors empower and support advisees in numerous ways. This study may inform institutions to better serve college athletes with academic advising and support services

Book excerpt: Making the Connection: Data-Informed Practices in Academic Support Centers for College Athletes is practical and ideal for those who seek to use research to inform their individual and organizational practices. This volume is primarily intended for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students, though scholars, researchers, teachers, practitioners, coaches, athletics administrators, and advocates of intercollegiate athletics will also find it useful. It comprises a series of chapters that cover a wide range of evidence-based approaches designed to enhance the practices of those who work closely with college athletes. Given the breadth of the field overall, this single volume is not exhaustive, but the current concerns, challenges, and themes of relevance to higher education researchers, practitioners, and others are well addressed. The intent of the text is to spark conversation about how college and university constituents can reframe their thinking about the importance of innovative research to careful, informed practice. Likewise, the contributors hope that it will inspire greater awareness and action among practitioners, as well as advance scholarship in the area of athletics. Each chapter includes current research, and in some cases theoretical perspectives, which should assist practitioners enhance the well-being of college athletes. Each chapter also offers guided discussion questions that are ideal for use as the basis of further conversation in the classroom setting. Adopters of this text will benefit from leading voices in the field who delve into complex issues, shedding new light and presenting unique opportunities for understanding a diversity of perspectives on evidence-based practices in support centers for athletes. In all, this volume provides a rich portrait of data-driven practices designed to assist practitioners and others who work closely with college athletes, and lays the groundwork for an ambitious and long overdue agenda to further develop innovative research that informs the practices of athletics stakeholders and improves the quality of experiences for college athletes.

Book excerpt: This volume is a critical and objective study of the contemporary college student athlete. Framed around the process of recruitment, transition, and support of student athletes in higher education, the volume is a response to societal pressures to reform college athletics. Driven by publicity and the potential for revenue gains, colleges and universities have invested heavily in developing athletic programs, coaches, and facilities. Yet few resources are invested strategically in the personal and intellectual development of student athletes. Written by a team of authors with first-hand experience working with student athletes and transitional programs, the volume argues that institutional attention must be directed at caring for the personal and intellectual growth of student athletes. Highlighting some best-practice curricula and exploring the psychological issues surrounding participating in often highly-competitive athletics, the authors consistently conclude that institutional responsibility is of the utmost and immediate importance. Authors also consider the unique settings of student athletes in community and private liberal arts colleges, demonstrating the broad interest in athletics and institutional competition. The result is an important volume that will be of interest to those who counsel and administer intercollegiate athletic programs, faculty and researchers looking for insightful baseline data on the contemporary student athlete, and those concerned with transitional programs and the future of higher education.

This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1991, the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) has mandated academic support services for student-athletes at all Division I institutions. Today, there is a vast difference of athletic academic support units at Power 5 Conferences compared to Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). The resources at Power 5 Conference institutions are also immensely different at HBCUs although the main services provided are similar. Advising, tutoring, orientation, assessment of study skills, compliance checks, personal counseling, career counseling, student-athlete scheduling/advising, testing of academically at-risk student-athletes are all services that are provided at both Power 5 institutions and HBCUs but there is still a stark difference in academic success (ie. APR and GSR). The purpose of this study was to evaluate select athletic academic support service services to student-athletes at HBCUs that support student-athlete academic success and graduation. Additionally, this study looked at how specific academic support services promote academic success and graduation through the NCAA's APR and GSR annual metrics. There were three null hypotheses tested utilizing a multiple linear regression to evaluate the relationship between academic support services and academic success. This research demonstrates the effectiveness and the barriers of receiving athletic academic support for non-revenue generating teams and revenue generating teams.

Download or read book NCAA Division III Student Athletes' Perceptions of Title IX written by Bradley E. Duckworth and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: United States President Richard Nixon signed Title IX of the Educational Amendments Act into law in 1972. Since 1972, Title IX on college campuses has legally mandated access for both sexes to all academic offerings and expanded athletics offerings for women; most recently, Title IX protection has expanded to include sexual misconduct. While the scope of Title IX is broad, the purpose of this research was to study NCAA Division III student athletes’ perceptions of Title IX generating useful understandings to guide key stakeholder’s future decisions. Previously conducted Title IX research focused primarily on NCAA Division I institutions and I could find no study from the lens of student athletes. The lack of empirical evidence quantifying student athletes’ perceptions of Title IX as well as no study primary focusing on Title IX at NCAA Division III campuses are problematic when evaluating Title IX effectiveness. This research surveyed NCAA Division III student athletes in Wisconsin focusing on possible differences in Title IX perceptions between the sexes, student athletes participating on higher- verses lower-expense sports, and among all years of participation. Pierre Bourdieu’s social reproduction theory served as the theoretical lens for examination of the quantitative results to the primary research questions.
