Social responsibility in community colleges: Rethinking the commitment to alternative education     

Ken Kempner PhD  Dian Connett MA 《Innovative Higher Education》1990,14(2):83-92

Because high school dropouts are among the least advantaged members of American society, the educational system that has failed them has the social responsibility for remediating their educational and developmental needs. The community college is proposed as the institution most able to develop policies and programs that will enable these least advantaged members of American society to overcome the educational system that has failed them. This paper discusses the responsibility of providing a quality education to all individuals, examines the role the community college can play in meeting the educational and social needs of dropouts, and presents an innovative program at a community college that has been particularly effective in meeting the needs of dropouts.  相似文献

Dyslexia quotient: An index of reading ability     

Carl L. Kline M.D.  Marjorie Ashbrenner M.A.  Byron Barrington PhD  Louis Reimer M.S.W. 《Annals of dyslexia》1968,18(1):23-31

Summary A new index for expressing degree of reading disability in children is presented. Called the Dyslexia Quotient (D. Q.), it has the advantages of being simple to calculate and of being expressed in round numbers. Standardization of this new index is presented. In addition, the use of the Dyslexia Quotient in 50 patients who completed intensive dyslexia therapy is presented. An age-improvement distribution diagram, using the D. Q. is given. The authors suggest that the Dyslexia Quotient offers a valuable universal means of indicating degree of reading disability at any grade or age level.  相似文献
