Online platform starts for job, education help – Arkansas Online

Posted: at 4:52 pm


without comments

An initiative that aims to expand educational and employment opportunities for Arkansans through an online resource platform launched Wednesday, officials announced.

The platform can be accessed at readyforlife.arkansas.gov. For job seekers, it offers online skills courses, career navigation resources and job postings.

For employers, the website offers ways to connect with job seekers in their area and showcase their company to candidates.

At a news conference at the state Capitol on Wednesday, officials said the website will be a vital tool for Arkansans affected by unemployment during the covid-19 pandemic, as well as for companies looking to locate in Arkansas.

"We have to be more efficient in connecting our work skills and work certifications with employers, and that's been a challenge for us to pull all that together, just as it's a challenge for many states," Gov. Asa Hutchinson said.

The Ready for Life initiative is funded with $14.7 million from the Governor's Emergency Education Relief Fund, which is part of the federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act.

Arkansas received a total of $30.7 million in GEER funding, which is to be used for improving educational opportunities, through online systems, Hutchinson said.

Of the $14.7 million put toward the initiative, more than $4.5 million is going to the state's two-year institutions to expand workforce training opportunities in high-wage and high-demand careers, Hutchinson said.

About $200,000 has been allocated for marketing the program to students and employers.

A working group that Hutchinson convened to determine how to best reach the state's goals of improving educational and employment opportunities included Arkansas Division of Elementary and Secondary Education Chief of Staff Gina Windle, Arkansas Office of Skills Development Deputy Director Cody Waits, Arkansas Division of Workforce Services Assistant Director Kris Jones, Arkansas Division of Information Systems data warehouse lead Robert McGough, Arkansas State Chamber of Commerce Education to Employee Director Rick Neal, Arkansas Community Colleges Association Executive Director Andrea Henderson and Hutchinson's deputy chief of staff, Bill Gossage.

For people looking for employment or a career change, the website offers tools to explore jobs, build a resume, view opportunities in their area and learn about local companies, as well as offering online courses for high-demand skills.

The website gives employers access to the resumes and training results of job seekers.

Commerce Secretary Mike Preston said the website will be a way for Arkansas to market its work force to companies looking to locate in the state.

"Anytime you sit down with a company now, the first thing out of their mouth is always, 'Tell us about your workforce. ... How are we going to find the workers in your state to fill the jobs that we need?'" Preston said.

Windle said the rest of the $30.7 million in GEER funds that Arkansas received has been allocated to other education-related initiatives including expanding short-term certificate programs for two-year colleges; fulfilling some of the recommendations of the Arkansas Computer Science and Cybersecurity Task Force; and creating a map showing broadband speeds and providers across the state, which was also released Wednesday.

The broadband map can be found at arkansas.vetro.io.

How machine learning is contributing to the evolution of online education space – India Today

Posted: at 4:52 pm


without comments

Machine learning has no doubt made a massive change in every spectrum we can imagine. Automation has been made a necessity in order to be technologically updated and also be at par as a tech business.

The benefits of automated operations are: higher productivity, reliability, availability, increased performance, and reduced operating costs; learning analytics that build statistical models of student knowledge to provide computerised and personalised feedback on learning the students' progress and their instructors; scheduling algorithms that search for an optimal and adapted teaching policy that helps students learn more efficiently, and so on.

Now that being said, if we have to talk about one such industry, the education space has bagged this tech upgrade in a thought provoking method. From choosing the course of your choice to earning a full-fledged degree, online education has come a long way.

2020 has been the year for the online education space. It wouldn't be wrong if we called it a revolution. Thanks to the pandemic, every educational organisation has taken the online teaching route. Being in the education space you need to make your students get a classroom experience as much as possible.

This is where machine learning algorithms like speech recognition, image recognition and text analysis come into picture.

The dimensions of the business changes when additional features to the model are added. With the option to pre-record lectures, students can watch them at their convenient time and stay on par with the lectures. This has been made possible by the custom video streaming facility.This also gives an opportunity to the educators to create personalised content based on each student's performance.

As a result, quality of teaching increases which is in turn beneficial for the business itself.

As a website, you get a good look at the data about your consumers. From number of views per page to number of people who have signed up for your programmes. This helps you in making better business decisions and also understanding customer behaviour.

With the progression of the world, having a degree is a minimum qualification required for most quality jobs. And college degrees are getting extremely expensive which makes it difficult to afford education. E-learning allows deviating from a set syllabus to provide students with knowledge that is always relevant. Online education is highly popular, effective and affordable due to advances in machine learning.

This education software can focus on specific areas where students need to improve, which makes the teaching and learning experience more learner-centric. The online education system has provided and ensured a personal touch into teaching and learning, which offers a positive interface between instructors and learners.

Machine learning, being so much in demand, can be a business model in itself. The number of people wanting machine learning as a subject are increasing day-by-day. This acts as an advantage to education providing spaces to inculcate it as a course.Today, there is a gap between students and educators. There is a need for a MLPaaS Machine Learning Platform as a Service.

An all-in-one space where educators can interact with their students to make the learning more interactive and less on-way.

It can expedite the development of new and more innovative forms of online education and can adapt and adjust to the individual learning requirements of every student. The algorithms help to analyse the capacity of the students and modify teaching approaches for boosting the teaching and learning experience in a globalised classroom by enabling the instructors to cultivate best academic practices.

All in all, the inculcation of ML into your teaching platforms can only result in positive impact when used by your customers when done right. This is the best time in the industry to gravitate towards algorithms because it reduces clerical work and makes the user experience much better.

Enrollment in RI public schools is down by almost 4,000 students. Where have they gone? – The Providence Journal

Posted: at 4:52 pm


without comments

Linda Borg |The Providence Journal

PROVIDENCE Rhode Island has almost 4,000 fewer students enrolled in the public schools than it did before the pandemic struck, the product of a swirl of uncertainty this fall about which schools would open their classroomsand general fears about the pandemic.

Rhode Island has lost 2.59% of its public school students, or 3,937 children(141,000 students are enrolled in the state).

A joint study by The Associated Press and Chalkbeat, an online education news outlet, found that public-school enrollment this fall has declined nationally by more than 500,000 students, or 2%,since the same time last year. The study included 33 of the 50 states; 17 had not released data yet.

More: RI schools to resume classes on staggered schedule in January

More: Warwick set to begin in-person instruction for high-school, middle-school students

Massachusetts saw its K-12 enrollment fall by nearly 3%, or 28,000 students, according to Chalkbeat. Almost half of those students wound up being home-schooled or switching to private schools, but about 7,000 students remainedunaccounted for, state officials told Chalkbeat.

The biggest worry is that some students simply gave up and dropped out, although those numbers are harder to track.

In Rhode Island, as school-reopening plans changed over the summer, many parents opted to homeschool their children. Others chose not to send their children to preschool or kindergarten at all.

State Education Commissioner Anglica Infante-Green said she is working with districts to figure out where these students have gone. The good news, she said, is that Rhode Island has lost fewer children than most other New England states.

The danger and not just for Rhode Island is that schools already hit hard by the pandemic will lose even more state aid because the funding formula is based on student numbers.

Exeter-West Greenwich Supt. James Erinakes said his district has seena substantial increasein homeschooled students:49, to be precise. Twenty fewer students enrolled in pre-school and 31 fewer did so in kindergarten and grade 1.

Its a big deal, he said Wednesday. Its something were all worried about. Theyre going to show up next year and they wont be part of our enrollment numbers for the funding formula.

Warwick, which opened remotely this fall, saw its enrollment drop from 8,471 in October 2019 to 7,981 a year later. Supt. Philip Thornton said 96 more families opted to homeschool their children.

We have to react and plan accordingly, he said. Were ramping up our in-person opening. Well see how that goes. (Story, A2)

Some students may have enrolled in Catholic schools, but the Diocese of Providence said it did not register an increased number of students this school year.

Middletown Supt. Rosemarie Kraeger has been hit with a double-whammy 100 more students are being homeschooled and fewer military families have been relocated to her town. Typically, the Navy moves families in July and August. This year, they began arriving one, even two months later.

Middletown is one of four communities that gets federal impact aid for military families that attend its schools. Kraeger has been working with Rhode Islands congressional delegation to use last years military school enrollments as the baseline for this years federal aid formula.

The challenges dont stop there.

Last spring, a number of public schools decided to offer free meals to all students, not just those who applied for them. Free and reduced-price meals are typically available to children from lower-income families. How much state aid districts receive is based in part on how many students are living in poverty, with free meals serving as a proxy for poverty.

However, since many families didnt fill out applications for free meals because they were available to everyone, districts have an undercount on how many students are actually eligible, and that will affect their state aid.

Our hope is that people recognize that school districts are struggling with these unexpected changes, Erinakis said. Especially when we are spending more money to address COVID. We know those needs are not going away next year. There is learning loss and social and emotional needs that have to be addressed and will cost money.

Higher educations reopening decisions affected the most vulnerable students – Brookings Institution

Posted: at 4:52 pm


without comments

The COVID-19 pandemic hit higher education on March 6, 2020 when the University of Washington became the first major U.S. university to cancel in-person classes and have students take courses and finals remotely. What followed was a tidal wave of shuttered campuses, canceled study abroad programs, and students and faculty alike scrambling to make sense of remote learning amid spiking infection rates across the country.

Surviving the end of the academic year, however, was only the beginning of a larger, looming higher education crisis. Over the summer, schools wrestled with the difficult question: what should be done about the fall? Davidson Colleges College Crisis Initiative (C2i) collaboration with the Chronicle of Higher Education tracked colleges fall decisions, categorizing them as online, in-person, or some combination of the two. We use that data to examine trends in schools decision-making, shedding light on the contributing factors and eventual consequences of those decisions.

In our analysis, we find that while nearly every school in our sample offered in-person experiences in March, only about 30 percent were planning to maintain that in-person experience by September. Public schools and community colleges were particularly likely to go online. We examine some of the factors underlying those switches as well as the consequences. We find that differing financial pressures on public schools, private schools, and community colleges likely played a role in their decisions. We also find that those decisions appear to have had a significant impact on the enrollment decisions and educational outcomes of students attending each type of school, potentially changing the makeup of this generations college students. As schools began making decisions about the spring 2021 semester, it was especially important to reflect on what decisions were made in the fall, why they were made, and what effects these reopening plans could have on students.

Reopening Decisions

Using the C2i panel data, we look at the reopening decisions of 2,958 colleges and universities over the course of the pandemic. The non-representative sample contains 1,588 public schools and 1,355 private schools. Four-year schools are overrepresented in the sample, with 2,007 four-year institutions and 936 two-year institutions. By far, the largest group in the sample is private, non-profit four-year schools, which represent 43 percent of the total sample.

Between March and September, roughly 1,800 schools changed their reopening plans at least once. The peak of switches came after mid-July, when many schools were scrapping their intended plans for the fall and making a new reopening decision.

Figure 1 looks at a subset of schools for which we have complete data on decision making. It shows that while only 24 schools in the sample offered exclusively online education when the pandemic began in March, 1,160 schools had decided to go exclusively online by July. By September, 50 schools that had intended to be in-person and 32 that intended to be hybrid as of July had also moved to being fully online. While most schools that made changes moved toward going online, 617 schools moved to hybrid models by July. That number decreased to 586 in September as more schools moved online. Finally, in September, 742 schools chose to remain entirely in-person. There was a significant amount of public concern about schools changing their plans at the last minute. However, Figure 1 shows that in fact most schools stuck with the decisions they had made earlier in the summer even with spikes in COVID-19 cases in some parts of the country.

In Figure 2, we break down the decisions made by each type of school as of September 10. We find that four-year private institutions had the highest share of schools choosing to remain in person in the fall, with only 381 schools, or 34 percent, going fully online. Community colleges had the highest share of online reopening decisions, with 543 schools, or 63 percent, choosing to entirely move away from in-person classes.

This disparity is likely in part due to a decade-long trend of moving toward online learning in higher education at two-year schools. Prior to the pandemic, community college students were more likely than their counterparts at four-year public or private institutions to be enrolled in at least one online course, with 14% of all community college students studying exclusively online (although not necessarily at an exclusively online institution) in 2018. However, the differential spike in online enrollment clearly extends beyond enrollment trends that predate the pandemic. We examine one reason for the trend in the next section.

Money Matters

Decisions on how to hold classes are complicated and involve many factors. However, we find that one important factor associated with those decisions is the financial makeup of different types of institutions. The three sectors mentioned above (four-year private, four-year public, and two-year) receive their funding in different ways, with additional differences between public and private two-year schools, as shown in Figure 3. While both private schools and public schools have faced pressure to keep their doors open, public schools seem to have had less financial incentive and fewer resources to do so.

Four-year colleges and universities, particularly private schools, tend to offer a residential component, while only 28% of two-year programs provided on-campus housing in 2015, though it is becoming more common. As a result, four-year schools are more vulnerable to a loss of revenue from canceling in-person experiences, such as residential housing, dining services, and parking. These services represent an average of $5,000 and $3,000 in revenue per student for private and public four-year institutions respectively, compared to less than $2,000 per student for both public and private two-year institutions, according to Figure 3.

When contrasting public and private institutions of higher education, other differences in funding arise. Private schools rely on tuition and fees, private gifts, and endowment funds for revenue, while public schools rely more heavily on state and local funding sources (Figure 3). Appropriations for public schools have been shrinking, with state funding being slashed by over $7 billion since 2008 leading to relatively constrained budgets for public schools. As a result, public schools had fewer resources than private schools to install technology like keycard systems, rapid testing, and other systems that made in-person learning possible during the pandemic.

Moreover, among all the different types of schools, endowment assets are most common in the private sector, and are highly concentrated. Not every school has utilized its endowment fund in the current crisis, as these funds are often thought of as intended for future investments. Nonetheless, endowments provide a cushion in funding that private two-year schools and public schools generally lack.

The Missing Cohort

This section highlights which kinds of students have forgone higher education in recent months or dropped out, likely in reaction to movements to online classes. Online learning can offer flexibility and accessibility, but it also can present challenges to learning outcomes. In particular, there are some groups of students for whom online education works poorly. Anticipating these challenges and more, 55 percent of students not returning for fall 2020 cited changes in class format.

In a case study, The Public Policy Institute of California found that students of color and nontraditional students are more likely to have challenges that put them at risk of lowered performance in an online setting, widening existing achievement gaps. Some challenges they are more likely to face include trying to study in a stressful home environment or an inability to access reliable internet.

Because of the nature of the populations that different schools serve, lower-income students are more likely to find their classes moved online. As shown above, two-year institutions were the most likely to move their classes from in-person to online. Roughly 15 percent of students at two-year schools come from families in the bottom income quintile, while the share is 9 percent of those at four-year public schools and 6 percent at four-year private schools. What this means is that low-income, underrepresented students are more likely to be struggling with the consequences of online schooling. And, if those students choose to drop out, that has dire consequences on lifetime earnings, given that those with bachelors degrees earn twice that of high school graduates.

Indeed, the discrepancies in experience have led to marked decreases in enrollment, especially for underprivileged students, for whom home environment or internet access may be more likely to present a challenge. New Census data suggests that students from households making less than $75,000 per year were almost twice as likely to forego college this year as those making more. The enrollment changes have also been marked along racial lines, with Black undergraduate students having been the most likely to see drops in enrollment for summer 2020. Community colleges, which typically serve students of color or of low-income backgrounds, accordingly held the largest share of enrollment drops for fall 2020, with first time student enrollment at public two-years plummeting by nearly 23 percent.

Compounding these problems, individuals who drop out are unlikely to re-enroll. From 2013-2018, within a group of 29 million observed students, 87 percent of college dropouts failed to re-enroll within the observation period.

Conclusion

Colleges have faced difficult trade-offs when deciding if, and how, to open their physical doors to students this year. While holding in-person classes can affect the health and safety of students, it is important to note the consequences of holding online classes for those who are typically underrepresented in institutions of higher education.

As the fallout of the pandemic continues to unfold, educational institutions must consider the broad impacts of online learning on retention, learning opportunities, and student achievement. They face difficult decisions for the upcoming semester and should choose policy solutions that protect and support the most academically vulnerable students.

Economic inequality persists in the United States, particularly along racial lines. A college degree is one significant pathway for lower-income young adults to improve lifetime earnings. All told, the greatest toll of the pandemic will be the disruption in upward mobility for the current cohort of low-income students.

Chegg Launches HONOR SHIELD: A New Tool to Support the Integrity of Online Exams – Business Wire

Posted: at 4:51 pm


without comments

SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Chegg Inc. (NYSE: CHGG), the online education platform which provides study tools, textbook rentals, math and writing support, and skills training to millions of students in over 190 countries, today announced a new tool available to faculty in response to the dramatic shift to online home assessments and examinations due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Honor Shield allows professors to confidentially, and without charge, pre-submit exam or test questions, preventing them from being answered on the Chegg platform during a time-specified exam period. After a successful trial, Chegg is now offering the service to faculty across the United States, and eventually globally.

The overwhelming majority of students use our platform to get the support they need to learn and master their subjects. The sudden impact of the Covid-19 pandemic forced many schools to go online, almost overnight, creating understandable confusion, stress, and the loss of many on-campus support services. As a result, a small number of students have misused our platform in ways it wasnt designed for, which we believe is not in the spirit of the majority of hard-working students, said Nathan Schultz, President of Learning Services at Chegg.

We are working with faculty, administrators, and students, to do our part in protecting the integrity of the online evaluation process. The extra layer of protection provided by Honor Shield will further support the learning process and serve the continued move to online learning. By working in partnership with educators, institutions, and students, we believe we are building systems to support student learning in the most effective ways, Schultz added.

At the height of the pandemic in spring 2020, 1388 out of 1442 colleges surveyed (96%) had moved online according to the Davidson College Crisis Initiative dashboard. Of 2958 US colleges surveyed in the fall of 2020, around two thirds (65%) were still delivering at least part of their programs virtually.

This is a complex problem, and we are determined to play our part in identifying and implementing practical solutions. As education becomes more accessible and available online, we believe that technology companies and education providers must work together and evolve to protect academic integrity, said Schultz.

Honor Shield adds to a range of measures already in place to prevent abuse of Cheggs platform. These include constant technology and human monitoring, training of all Chegg experts, prompts for users, banning of abusers from the Chegg platform, strict adherence to DMCA removal protocols, and rigorous enforcement of Cheggs honor code, including cooperating with official university honor code investigations.
