A qualitative design was employed in this study. Data were collected utilizing three focus groups (N = 11). The findings concerning veterans’ challenges in pursuit of higher education are the following: (a) us versus them, (b) difference in the learning environment, (c) institutional barriers, and (d) networking. The current study provides an additional discussion platform for educators, institutions of higher education, and veterans affairs departments—it is a potential opportunity to design learning environments, policies, and practices that will enhance the overall process of veterans’ transitions and create environments in higher education that are truly veteran-friendly.","PeriodicalId":44549,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Continuing Higher Education","volume":"69 1","pages":"1 - 18"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2020-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07377363.2020.1743621","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47894318","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The business incubator is an innovative use of space that supports the economic development of the region and entrepreneurial education that includes for-credit and non-credit programming. Incubator programs are not a new concept, but they continue to provide universities a way to connect with businesses in their communities. St. Francis’s program is in its infancy, having opened in 2014, but it provides a model that is contributing value to the small business members utilizing the program, value to regional economic development, and value to the university and its students. This article is a case study of the formation of an incubator program and a general review of initial research questions. The case study is offered as a model for other universities to duplicate in their academic or continuing education units.","PeriodicalId":44549,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Continuing Higher Education","volume":"68 1","pages":"117 - 127"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2020-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07377363.2019.1680269","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46915868","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Instructors can bring their best to the class when they use creative and innovative teaching strategies that foster student learning and its application.

Literature reviewed on the benefits/challenges of comps reflects a theme questioning the fidelity of the exams. Does a high-stakes test reassure doctoral faculty that the doctoral student has the content capacity expected of one earning a doctorate? Are comps an indicator of successful navigation through the dissertation process? This article reflects an authentic assessment process of evaluation that has successfully been instituted within a doctoral program as well as the benefits/challenges of these assessments in lieu of traditional comps. Further, we share examples of how doctoral students have developed/implemented genuine learning experiences that synthesize both content and skills they learn/practice in their program, while propelling them forward into the field of scholarship.","PeriodicalId":44549,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Continuing Higher Education","volume":"68 1","pages":"100 - 84"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2020-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07377363.2020.1743950","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42022389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, institutional awareness of student technology needs—including student support needs as they relate to accessible technology—is essential to create an inclusive and supportive learning environment. Despite the growing number of students requiring accommodations for academic success, such as accessible technology within the coursework, there is limited research exploring technology use and student perceptions of accessible technology needs for post-traditional learners enrolled in the e-Learning course environment.

The majority of studies emphasize that professors tend to manage instructional strategies, such as lecture or presentations, in mixed undergraduate classrooms mainly by focusing on traditional students’ characteristics such as age, role experience, expectations, and motivations. The findings of this study indicate that professors who have more adult learners in their mixed undergraduate classrooms tend to adapt and apply student-centered strategies, such as interactive lectures, group discussions, or debates in higher level classes, based on both traditional and adult learners’ characteristics.","PeriodicalId":44549,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Continuing Higher Education","volume":"68 1","pages":"71 - 83"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2020-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07377363.2020.1712578","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59392043","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
