Chambers, Silvana; Mayfield, Clifton O.; Valenti, Alix – International Journal of Educational Management, 2023

Jones, David – Journal of Continuing Higher Education, 2019
Failure to thrive among nontraditional graduate students--whether by attrition, degree noncompletion, or failure-may represent an inability to manage competing demands rather than an inability to perform academically. University personnel have considered themselves limited in the ability to support non-traditional students to overcome nonacademic…

In the UK, Latin is often seen as an elitist subject taught largely at fee-paying schools. Over the past generation, however, great strides have been made in opening up the subject to students from all backgrounds. A major hindrance to widening access to Latin at university level is that the language can often prove challenging for students. Data…

Community college students who are juggling busy lives may be drawn to enroll in self-paced online courses.
