Author discusses book on grad school

Graduate school is a great mystery to students, and to some faculty members, says Jessica McCrory Calarco, the author of A Field Guide to Grad School: Uncovering the Hidden Curriculum (Princeton University Press). Calarco is an associate professor of sociology at Indiana University. She believes many faculty members (as well as graduate students, of course) will benefit from her book. She responded to questions via email. Q: How did you get the idea to write this book? Why did the issue speak to you? A: This book started as a tweet . Or, rather, as a series of tweets about the hidden curriculum of higher ed. Ph.D. student Kristen K. Smith had tweeted about the need to better educate undergrads about grad school opportunities, and it made me think about how opportunities in academe are often hidden from grad students, as well.

Tips and Strategies for Remote Learning (March 2020)

For the past four weeks, starting two weeks before our Spring Break last week, teachers, administrators and staff at our school have been preparing for “remote school” for students as a result of the coronavirus / COVID-19 crisis.

This collaborative effort with many other teachers and members of our school staff has provided a good opportunity to curate as well as present instruc...

Report: Student Satisfaction Down, but They Still Plan to Enroll

Nearly 90 percent of students plan on re-enrolling at the same college they attended during the fall semester, despite decreased satisfaction with support services and social experiences and heightened concern about finances as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, according to a new white paper based on a survey administered by Anthology, a higher ed technology services company. About two-thirds of the 1,143 students surveyed in October by the company were taking classes fully online, while nearly one-third have a hybrid model of instruction and 3 percent were fully in person, the white paper said. Over all, 32 percent of students said they didn’t “feel included” in a circle of friends, and 27 percent said they did not feel like a part of the “college community,” both of which are “typical factors of mattering and belonging that lead to increased retention,” the white paper said. Students who live on or near campus were more likely to feel socially connected t...
