"An important work."--Susan Salvador, Journal of College Student Development "Levin points out the implications, both pro and con, of the community colleges expanding their community service role to encompass a worldwide educational and service function."--Arthur M. Cohen, Director, ERIC Clearinghouse for Community Colleges "...A break-through in community college scholarship, moving beyond the boundaries of college, state and nation, and into issues of organization of knowledge at two year schools in a global economy."--Sheila Slaughter and Larry Leslie, authors of Academic Capitalism: Politics, Policies, and the Entrepreneurial University "An enlightening read that will surely stimulate further discussion. A must read."-- Library Journal "Levin's design and approach are sound and sufficiently documented to lend support to the findings in this book."-- Educational Researcher, "An important work."--Susan Salvador,Journal of College Student Development "Levin points out the implications, both pro and con, of the community colleges expanding their community service role to encompass a worldwide educational and service function."--Arthur M.

A must read."--Library Journal"Levin's design and approach are sound and sufficiently documented to lend support to the findings in this book."--Educational Researcher, 'As it is thought of primarily as a local institution, one might not think that the community college would be affected significantly by globalization. However, in a path breaking study in two countries, Professor Levin shows that the community college has been affected in profound and diverse ways by the forces of globalization. In addition to dissecting the impacts of globalization, this book also provides such valuable insights into the organizational dynamics of community colleges that it is a must read for anyone interested in the management of community colleges.' - Michael L. Skolnik The William G. Davis Chair in Community College Leadership, University of Toronto 'As John Levin demonstrates, globalization and academic capitalism are as pervasive in community colleges as in universities, and the two are re-shaping the mission of the community college as well as the opportunities available to students. Community colleges are entrepreneurial actors on a global stage, trading in international students, marketers of global educational products, and markets for multinational corporations. This book is a break-through in community college scholarship, moving beyond the boundaries of college, state and nation, and into issues of organization of knowledge at two year schools in a global economy.' - Sheila Slaughter and Larry Leslie, authors of Academic Capitalism: Politics, Policies and the Entrepreneurial University 'Levin's design and approach are sound and sufficiently documented to lend support to the findings in this book.' - Educational Researcher '...among those who care about the role and future of community colleges, Levin's work belongs on your shelf.' - Chad M. Hanson, The Journal of Higher Education '...an important work...' - Susan Salvador, Journal of College Student Development

Introduction Globalization and the community college The Cases: Seven Colleges in Two Nations The Domains of Globalization: The Economic Domain, the Cultural Domain The Information Domain The Domain of Politics The Process of Globalization What Remains Behind: The Community College in the 21st Century
Edition Description
Revised edition
Synopsis
Long regarded as a local institution, the community college has become a globalized institution. It has been affected by global forces, and by the interpretations of organizational members to both global forces and to the responses of intermediaries. Globalization as a process finds an outlet within the community college where economic, cultural, and technological behaviors are advanced along lines consistent with and supportive of globalization. Furthermore, government actions have directed community colleges to respond and adapt to a global economy. In this book, seven community colleges are examined to demonstrate organizational change in the 1990s precipitated by globalization., Levin looks at seven community colleges that have undergone organizational change in response to globalization. For each college, he examines three different effects of globalization: in the economic domain, the cultural domain, and the information domain. Essential reading for community college presidents, chief academic and finance officers, development and research directors, members of governing boards and all those committed to enhancing the mission of the community college.

- e***n (392)- Feedback gegeven door koper.Afgelopen 6 maandenGeverifieerde aankoopGreat transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
- e***u (280)- Feedback gegeven door koper.Afgelopen maandGeverifieerde aankoopThe listing was for a hardcover version of this book; however, I received a paperback. The Seller replied quickly to my question about this issue and issued a full refund - and let me keep the book. So, a diligent Seller for sure - and well packaged and reasonable timing on shipping. Thank you for the refund, and as you suggested, I'll likely donate this volume and seek the hardcover.

Seller was able to bundle all three items together into one package. Items as described and arrived in perfect condition. Good communication around shipping and tracking as items delayed and not able to be delivered by original estimate. Thanks to shipping updates I was able to track the items arriving before the extended delivery time. Thank you for making these items available on EBay.
