Community colleges have become a frequent subject of discussion in recent years, both among educators and philanthropists seeking to improve access and success in higher education for all groups, and increasingly among lawmakers and the general public responding to tuition increases at four year institutions, a high unemployment rate and need for worker retraining, and pressure for all young people to obtain a postsecondary degree or certificate. Much of the buzz has been positive, with community colleges cast as the nexus of national efforts to prepare a highly skilled workforce, as well as the lynchpin in the K20 education pipeline. Millions of federal and philanthropic dollars have been poured into the community college sector via initiatives such asthe Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training Grant Program, Achieving the Dream, and Compete to Complete, and community colleges across the nation have responded with efforts to improve job training and workforce development programs, reforms intended to boost student progress and completion rates, and collaborations with K-12 and university personnel to improve articulation and transfer among the sectors. For thirty years The American Community College has provided up-to-date information and statistics about community colleges and has been widely used both in graduate courses on community colleges, and as reference material by community college scholars and practitioners (many of whom are entering doctoral programs in order to advance in the administrative ranks). The sixth edition includes an entirely new chapter focused on community college outcomes and accountability, as well as new sections dealing with the rise of for-profit colleges; vertical expansion, including dual enrollment and community college baccalaureates; cross-sector collaboration; student characteristics and enrollment patterns; the effects of part-time faculty; leadership and administrative challenges; revenue gen …|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/64c92cbe/the-american-community-college-sixth-edition-am-cohen-9781118449813.jpg|9781118449813|The American Community College, Sixth Edition : Hardback : John Wiley & Sons Inc : 9781118449813 : 01 Nov 2013 : For over thirty years The American Community College has provided up-to-date information and statistics about community colleges and has …|new|1|1|6|65|0|GBP|AM Cohen|John Wiley & Sons Inc|01 Nov 2013|Higher & further education, tertiary education … 9781118443927|The New Trading for a Living - Psychology, Discipline, Trading Tools and Systems, Risk Control and Trade Management|58.99|https://wordery.com/the-new-trading-for-a-living-psychology-discipline-trading-tools-and-systems-risk-control-and-trade-management-a-elder-9781118443927|The best-selling trading book of all time?updated for the new era The New Trading for a Living updates a modern classic, popular worldwide among both private and institutional traders.

Capable of measuring space to an accuracy of less than 1 mm, these tools offer unprecedented precision for the development and interrogation of design before, during and post production. Over the last decade or so, the array of designers’ digital tools to propose and make their ideas have evolved significantly, but the absence of high-accuracy, zero-tolerance design production has often remained the missing piece between design and fulfilment. Innovative technologies are thus substantially recalibrating the way that designers operate in the world between the drawn and the made, having the power to transform the architect’s role from that of visualiser to one that is intensely involved with the realisation of objects and buildings. High Definition will examine the capabilities of advanced technologies in design production through their impact on design theory, practice and greater levels of collaboration between design and manufacturing. It will permeate the entangled world between means and meaning and unravel a new understanding between the representation and production of architectural design.
