Book Synopsis Economics and Finance of Higher Education by : Linda DeAngelo
Download or read book Economics and Finance of Higher Education written by Linda DeAngelo and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the publication of the 2nd Edition of this Reader in 2001, there has been a large increase in the amount of research and scholarly publication on issues of higher education finance. This is not surprising, given the pattern of decreased public funding and increased student cost over this period. Strategic planning and its relationship to budgeting under growing financial constraints have been of continuing interest among both higher education scholars and practitioners. What has changed, however, is the greater inclusion of explicitly economic perspectives in publications dealing with various aspects of postsecondary education. Because of these changing publication patterns, it was appropriate to add the word "Economics" to the title of this edition. Inside you'll find a mix of scholarly and practitioner-oriented publications, as well as thoughtful scholar-written section introductions that bring the reader up to date on the current issues.
Book Synopsis The Economics of Education by : John Sheehan
Download or read book The Economics of Education written by John Sheehan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a survey of the principal aspects of the economics of education, such as the demand for education as consumption and as an investment, good education and economic growth, education and manpower needs, and the finance of education. In some cases in recent years, economic theory has been applied to educational problems in order to gain an insight into the workings of the educational system. The result has been a certain amount of confusion and distrust among teachers and educationists: confusion because some theoretical aspects are not easily understood and distrust of the economist's intrusion into educational policy-making. This book overcomes these problems by making minimal demands on prior knowledge of economics and by emphasizing the limitations of economic analysis applied to policy matters.

Book Synopsis Handbook of Research in Education Finance and Policy by : Helen F. Ladd
Download or read book Handbook of Research in Education Finance and Policy written by Helen F. Ladd and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 786 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sponsored by the Association for Education Finance and Policy (AEFP), this groundbreaking new handbook assembles in one place the existing research-based knowledge in education finance and policy, thereby helping to define this evolving field of research and practice. It provides a readily available resource for anyone seriously involved in education finance and policy in the United States and around the world. The Handbook traces the evolution of the field from its initial focus on school inputs and the revenue sources used to finance these inputs to a focus on educational outcomes and the larger policies used to achieve them. It shows how the current decision-making context in school finance inevitably interacts with those of governance, accountability, equity, privatization, and other areas of education policy. Because a full understanding of the important contemporary issues requires input from a variety of perspectives, the Handbook draws on contributors from a variety of disciplines. While many of the chapters cover complex state-of-the-art empirical research, the authors explain key concepts in language that non-specialists can understand.

Book Synopsis Higher Education, Fiscal Administration, and Budgeting by : Gabriel R. Serna
Download or read book Higher Education, Fiscal Administration, and Budgeting written by Gabriel R. Serna and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-08-09 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes an applied approach to budgeting and fiscal administration in higher education. It presents new and aspiring leaders in higher education and student affairs with the fundamental knowledge and skills to supervise, analyze, and implement budgets that make the best and most effective use of limited resources. By exploring the foundational elements of fiscal administration and outlining the process step-by-step, this text carefully takes leaders through real-world examples and includes myriad opportunities for application. Indeed, a major goal of this text is to provide readers with a set of technical skills that can be applied across a range of contexts. Our expectation is that current and future higher education and student affairs leaders will find this text invaluable in their day-to-day work and that the material presented here will help them engage in fruitful decisions around the allocation of scare resources.
Book Synopsis Educational Economics by : Marguerite Roza
Download or read book Educational Economics written by Marguerite Roza and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2010 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine if a school were to spend more per pupil on ceramics electives than core science classes. What if a district were to push more funding to wealthy neighborhoods than to impoverished ones? Such policies would provoke outrage. Yet these schools and districts are real. Today's taxpayers spend almost $9,000 per pupil, roughly double what they spent 30 years ago, and educational achievement doesn't seem to be improving. With the movement toward holding schools and districts accountable for student outcomes, individuals might think that officials can precisely track how much they are spending per student, per program, per school. But considering the patchwork that is school finance--federal block funding, foundation grants, earmarks, set-asides, and union mandates--funds can easily be diverted from where they are most needed. "Educational Economics: Where Do School Funds Go?" Examines education finance from the school's vantage point, explaining how the varied funding streams can prevent schools from delivering academic services that mesh with their stated priorities. As government budgets shrink, linking expenditures to student outcomes will be imperative. "Educational Economics" offers concrete prescriptions for reform. Contents of this book include: (1) Fuzzy Math; (2) Who's in Charge Here?; (3) When Agendas Collide; (4) Driving Blind; (5) What Does It All Mean for Schools?; (6) a Wicked Problem: Why Typically Proposed Overhauls of the Finance System Are Guaranteed to Fail; and (7) a Multidimensional Solution: Elements of a Coherent, Aligned, Efficient Education Finance System. The following are also included: (1) Acknowledgments; (2) Introduction; (3) Notes; (4) References; (5) About the Author; and (6) Index.
