ITWF: The Research Component of a Model Information Technology (IT) College

EIA-0204267良好，玛丽L.，威廉·米切尔阿肯色州，小石城 示范IT学院的研究部分ITWF奖为位于小石城的阿肯色州大学提供支持，以使用IT工具为教育企业服务，就像这些工具支持商业企业一样。1999年，阿肯色州认识到IT工人的短缺，并在小石城的阿肯色州大学创建了信息科学和系统工程学院，称为阿肯色州网络学院。 该网络学院将设计一个数据库，该数据库将包含该学院四个基于计算机的四年制学位课程的招聘和一年级学生经历的各个方面的数据。 该数据库将：提供一个试验台，用于从其他www.example.com挖掘的人口统计学和教育学研究中得出的结论studies.be，以寻找新的关联和经验和行为模式集群，这将表明研究的新方向。学院已实施，以实现其使命。原型招聘和保留数据库，可以安装在其他IT学院，从而有助于一个重要的工具，以进一步了解的努力，IT一旦建成，这一动态数据模型将在网络学院内持续下去，它收集的数据和分析将为全国IT劳动力中维持大学培训专业人员供应的纵向问题提供见解。

EIA-0204267Good, Mary L., Mitchell, William M.U. Arkansas, Little RockTitle: The Research Component of a Model IT CollegeThis ITWF award provides support to the University of Arkansas, Little Rock to use the tools of IT to serve the educational enterprise in the same way that these tools support business enterprises. In 1999 the state of Arkansas recognized the shortage of IT workers and created the College of Information Science and Systems Engineering, called the Cyber-college of Arkansas, at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. The Cyber-college will design a database that will house data on every facet of the college's recruitment and first-year student experience across four computer-based four-year degree programs. The database will:provide a test-bed for conclusions derived from demographic and pedagogic research from other studies.be mined for new associations and clusters of experience and behavior patterns that will suggest research in new directions.provide data on the IT students of Arkansas and on the efficacy of the various strategies that the Cyber-college has implement to achieve its mission.prototype recruitment and retention databases that could be installed in other IT college and thereby contribute an important tool to further the understanding of the efforts of IT colleges to serve underrepresented population groups.Once built, this dynamic data model will be sustained within the Cyber-college and the data that it collects and the analysis that it engenders will provide insight to the longitudinal problem of maintaining the supply of college-trained professionals in the IT workforce nationally.
