...college. Some had dropped out and some are still in college shifting courses just like me. So I decided to make a survey research regarding students in colleges on how passionate they are in the course they took up. I have delimited my research to students of the same course that I am taking to target a specific population and validity. Despite the problem of having many legal management students shifting courses, they take easy courses to graduate on time. As a current student and had been enrolled in legal management course in FEU, questions had bewildered myself if I had took the right path and made a right decision to take this course hence where will this lead me after I graduated from the course? There were instances in my college years that I opted or imagined to shift course for that matter because of the fear of the unknown. I am an irregular 3rd year student and I had witness some of my friends or almost of my friends if I may say had graduated from the courses they took and for my fellow legal management batch mates who if not shifted had graduated from this course but didn’t landed on a good job. The purpose of my research is to know the different reasons or the concrete intention or motive why some or a lot of students decided to shift course specifically legal management students. I will also probe if there is a trend of shifters or students from Leg Ma (Legal Management) jumping to another course and what persuade them to do it. This research will use survey...

...SHIFT COURSES AFTER 1-2 YEARS by vince silva on 29 September 2014 INTRODUCTION One of the major factors that have been affecting college students to graduate earlier is the shifting of courses of the college student, especially after the first to second year of experience of the student’s studies. Shifting of course is a way of college students to change their chosen program to another that may have been caused by many incompatibility of the student to compete in that specific chosen program. According to the Office of the University Registrar of DLSU “shifting refers to a transfer from one program to another of the same level. A level may refer to baccalaureate, masters, doctoral, or diploma/certificate”. In some college student’s perspective about shifting courses, is that shifting courses was caused by rejection of the problems of the student in that specific program In shifting courses there are four possible reasons why a college student demands to shift their course. The first possible reason in shifting course is the problem with the student’s course itself, if the course does not meet the demands of a student, it may cause failure or boredom to the student that makes them change course. Second reason is the problem with the place or university, if the place causes uncomfortable aura to the students, then it may cause unhappiness or unsatisfactory to their needs. Third reason is the financial problem, if the fund of the student to study in a specific course is insufficient...

...follow the footsteps of their parents, some are applying for the course because it sounds easy while some are applying for the course because of the big profit that the future job can offer. According to Vince Silva (2014) an engineering student, one of the major factors that have been affecting college students to graduate earlier is the shifting of courses of the college student, especially after the first to second year of experience of the student's studies. Shifting of course is a way of college students to change their chosen program to another that may have been chosen by many. In this generation many college students shift courses because of personal, social, and educational conflicts. Shifting courses became a delay for the progressing development of the country even in the Philippines. It is commonly experienced these days that a good number of freshmen students shift from one course to another every semester. It has always been a burden on the part of the student's immediate superior who approved the shifting of courses. In fact, the incidence of indecision in occupational choice among college students has become a burden to some faculty members in college level, since shifting is a product of irrational decision which is notably interferes with the educational growth of the students. According to the University of West England, one of the reasons why students change their college major or course is because the academic level is too high or low for the student...

...Overview When students begin college, they're often intimidated by the rarified atmosphere of intellectual life, so their colleges walk them through course enrollment and see to it that they enroll in a variety of courses designed to give them a good start on academic life. After the first semester, however, students begin to make more informed and independent course choices, which may be based on requirements, practicalities, and personal bent. Is it Hard or Easy? Many freshmen and sometimes sophomores and upper classmen often try to schedule courses that they have heard are easy. This may be a symptom of laziness, but it may also be fear. Sometimes taking a course that seems easy is a practical concern: When a student enrolls in challenging courses, she may offset the workload by enrolling in one "easy" course so that she can still carry a full-time credit load for financial aid purposes and allow enough time and intellectual space for more challenging courses. In fact, College Board, a student advisement organization, recommends this approach. Who's the Professor? It's not unusual for students to try to get into a course because of the reputation of the professor teaching it. This may be because a professor is perceived as easy, or because the professor is an outstanding scholar in her field or because the professor is regarded as a fine teacher. It's a College Requirement Nearly all colleges and universities have general education requirements, which cover a variety...

...ome tough choices that we need to make. More so, if we are about to begin a new chapter of our lives, like, getting married, moving out, or deciding on which college course to take. A quarter of our lives are spent deciding on the perfect course but with all the time that we had, why is it that we still doubt the career path that we have taken? Passion. When a student finally decides to follow his own passion and not that of his parents, course crisis would start to arise. It is in man’s nature to have freedom of self-expression and so in the midst of finishing a degree, he decided to change courses, one that is more his own. True Calling. Most of us pick our courses because of influences. We are still very indecisive at this stage and would take whatever solution is presented to us. What if we finally discover what we are truly meant for? What if we realize that we should be doing something on another field. What then? Do we still continue? Just study again? Maybe this moment of thought will just go away by itself? I don’t think so. Job Market. Let’s be honest. Money is probably the most influential driving force why we choose our courses. What if right when we are in the middle of finishing our studies there’s a sudden change in opportunities. Take Nursing for example, itâ €™s the hottest trend in college education but we are hearing recent news that there is an oversupply of nurses in the country. Would you shift to a more in-demand education or try to wait it out and...

...Assessment and classroom learning By Black, Paul, Wiliam, Dylan, Assessment in Education: Principles, Policy & Practice Mar1998, Vol. 5, Issue 1 ABSTRACT This article is a review of the literature on classroom formative assessment. Several studies show firm evidence that innovations designed to strengthen the frequent feedback that students receive about their learning yield substantial learning gains. The perceptions of students and their role in self-assessment are considered alongside analysis of' the strategies used by teachers and the formative strategies incorporated in such systemic approaches as mastery learning. There follows a more detailed and theoretical analysis of the nature of feedback, which provides a basis for a discussion of the development of theoretical models for formative assessment and of the prospects for the improvement of practice. Introduction One of the outstanding features of studies of assessment in recent years has been the shift in the focus of attention, towards greater interest in the interactions between assessment and classroom learning and away from concentration on the properties of restricted forms of test which are only weakly linked to the learning experiences of" students. This shift has been coupled with many expressions of hope that improvement in classroom assessment will make a strong contribution to the improvement of learning. So one main purpose of this review is to survey the evidence which might show whether or...

...methodologies to arrive at a theoretically comprehensive understanding of a group or culture. Ethnography attempts to explain the web of interdependence of group behaviors and interactions. In this assignment, you will interview a disabled or chronically ill person and make observations about the person based on your understanding of what it means to be a member of this social category. Remember that disability and chronic illness include both visible and invisible elements, and that there is great variation in age, class, ethnicity, and gender identity. You may also interview the parent of a child with a disability as long as the parent can speak on behalf of the child’s social experience or experience in society. You will use your knowledge of course concepts related to disability identity and group belonging. The interview can take place in person or, if absolutely necessary, over Skype, but not on the phone. It is important that you read facial expressions and have a sense of the respondent’s non-verbal communication. You should find out as much as you can about the respondent’s relationship to the social category of disability or chronic illness and sense of group membership.
