Public Funding of Higher Education
$27.48 Much of the twentieth century saw broad political support for public funding of American higher education. Liberals supported public investment because it encouraged social equity, conservatives because it promoted economic development. Recently, however, the politics of higher education have become more contentious. Conservatives advocate deep cuts in public financing; liberals want to expand enrollment and increase diversity. Some public universities have embraced privatization, while federal aid for students increasingly emphasizes middle-class affordability over universal access.In Public Funding of Higher Education, scholars and practitioners address the complexities of this new climate and its impact on policy and political advocacy at the federal, state, and institutional levels. Rethinking traditional rationales for public financing, contributors to this volume offer alternatives for policymakers, administrators, faculty, students, and researchers struggling with this difficult practical dynamic.Contributors: M. Christopher Brown II, Pennsylvania State University; Jason L. Butler, University of Illinois; Choong-Geun Ching, Indiana University; Clifton F. Conrad, University of Wisconsin--Madison; Saran Donahoo, University of Illinois; James Farmer, JA-SIG uPortal; James C. Hearn, Vanderbilt University; Janet M.

A Dea Decision Making Model For Higher Education Funding
$62.82 Funding Higher Education (HE) in Mexico has been a topic of endless discussion. Both universities and government feel the current funding distribution process is not appropriate. The current funding mechanism consists of annual budgets given unconditionally to the universities; the allocation is not associated with inputs/outputs to the HE system, but is simply related to the previous budget plus an additional fund. This system clearly does not provide incentive for outstanding performance, just as it does not punish poor performance. This book presents a methodology to develop an efficiency- based decision-making model that will provide with a more accountable funding distribution process for the 34 Mexican Public State Universities. The method was developed using the data envelopment analysis decision theory framework. 24 alternative cases were developed using different variables. The model describes the performance efficiencies of the universities based on inputs and outputs to the HE system and proposes future funding based on those measurements. |

Funding Inclusive Education: The Economic Realities (monitoring Change
$23.35 Funding for pupils with special educational needs has created resource management difficulties for schools and budgetary control problems for LEAs. Special educational needs is a frequent area of LEA overspending. These issues are particularly important as the development of inclusion and raising attainment for all pupils are key government priorities. Many LEAs are now considering revisions of their funding formulae for additional and special educational needs during Best Value Reviews and Fair Funding consultations. This accessible book examines the policy context for formula funding and the design and accountability issues for the construction of a revised formula. One of the central themes is the idea that a funding formula should be viewed as a key instrument of policy to assist in delivering specific inclusive policy objectives to meet the additional and special educational needs of pupils. |

Formula Funding of Public Services
$170 The use of formulae has become widespread in recent years across most developed countries. In the UK, a conservative estimate is that annually 150 billion of public service expenditure is distributed using formulae, in services such as health care, local government, social security and higher education. This book offers a comprehensive introduction to the theory and practice underlying the use of such formulae as a basis for funding public services. The philosophy, design and economic consequences of funding formulae have become key policy issues worldwide. However, till now, there has been no text which brings together the economic, statistical and political issues underlying formula funding. This key book fills that gap.Written by a leading international expert on the design of funding formulae, this important book includes empirical evidence from a range of countries and will be a valuable resource for all those involved in this field. |

Funding Public Colleges and Universities for Performance
$25.81 This is the first comprehensive study of performance funding of public colleges and universities, which directly ties some state allocations to institutional results on designated indicators. The book examines performance funding as a national phenomenon, identifying the champions and critics of the program, the arguments for and against its adoption, the most common performance measures used for funding, the characteristics that separate stable from unstable initiatives, and the inherent possibilities and problems.The authors include case studies of performance funding in Tennessee, Missouri, Florida, Ohio, and South Carolina, and explore the reasons why Arkansas, Colorado, Kentucky, and Minnesota first adopted and later abandoned their programs. They examine problems with performance funding, such as the reluctance of the academic community to agree on reasonable goals for undergraduate education or the failure to apply performance funding to the academic departments that are mostly responsible for institutional results on many of the performance indicators. |

Performance Funding for Public Higher Education: Fad or Trend: New Dir
$21.18 Performance funding for public higher education has become a popular topic in state capitols in the 1990s. The time seemed right for tying resources to results.

The chapters in this volume examine the conflicts and issues raised by performance funding as well as the similarities and differences in state programs. They reflect the information gathered and lessons learned from a national study of performance funding supported by The Pew Charitable Trusts. This is the 97th issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for Institutional Research.Performance funding for public higher education has become a popular topic in state capitols in the 1990s.

A 'must have' for all dynamic administrators who will lead their schools through the new century!<br>--Frances J. Sills, former principal, Cedar Grove High School, New Jersey, and educational consultant<br><br>Using computers and getting wired have become priorities for educators and parents. But most schools lack the funds to fulfill their technological dreams. And many schools make the mistake of framing their proposals as equipment requests rather than showing how technology can facilitate better educational outcomes for students. This practical book-and-disk kit shows how to develop more effective technology funding proposals. It helps schools to identify the issues that can be resolved more efficiently through technology and then details how to effectively articulate what they need, why they need it, how they will use it, and who will benefit from the technological enhancements.<br><br>Grants expert David G. Bauer arms the grantseeker with a deeper understanding of the funding landscape--from individual and corporate to foundation and government sources. He also provides a wealth of strategic tools, including worksheets, sample letters and forms, checklists, charts, spreadsheets, and Web links to additional funding sources. And for easy access and customization, many of the hands-on resources are available on the accompanying disk.
