更好地了解学生如何实现垂直迁移对于促进科学,技术,工程和数学(STEM)专业的公平至关重要。在以往的研究表明,影响垂直转移结果的障碍,延迟和复杂性的许多来源中,转移录取过程通常被忽视。使用纵向,定性设计,并借鉴转移资本和场理论,本研究调查了在STEM领域代表性不足的社区大学生如何成功地进入STEM专业的四年制院校。结果表明,学生经历了转移入学的风险和不确定性。随着时间的推移,他们积累了转移资本,以转移入学知识和提高竞争力的策略的形式,包括调节他们的课程强度和积极管理他们的GPA。虽然这些形式的转移资本帮助学生成功转移,但有些策略可能适得其反,造成意想不到的负面后果,如完成时间延迟,过度学分积累或在确保录取方面的劣势。结果支持的论点,转学录取过程是一个关键的,但在很大程度上被忽视的方面,学生的经验,在干垂直途径。结论为进一步的研究和机构实践提供了建议。
Better understanding of how students achieve vertical transfer is vital for advancing equity in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) majors. Among the many sources of barriers, delays, and complexities demonstrated in previous research as influencing vertical transfer outcomes, the transfer admission process has been generally neglected. Using a longitudinal, qualitative design, and drawing on transfer capital and field theories, this study investigated how community college students who are underrepresented in STEM fields successfully navigated admission to a four-year institution in a STEM major. Results indicated that students experienced transfer admission as risky and uncertain. They accrued transfer capital over time, in the form of knowledge about transfer admission and strategies to bolster their competitiveness, including regulating their coursework intensity and actively managing their GPAs. Although these forms of transfer capital helped students succeed in transferring, some strategies could backfire, causing unintended negative consequences, such as time-to-completion delays, excess credit accumulation, or disadvantages in securing admission. Results supported the contention that the transfer admission process is a pivotal, yet largely neglected aspect of student experience in STEM vertical pathways. Conclusions provide suggestions for further research and implications for institutional practice.
