Higher education, particularly when attending a four year university, is a monumental expenditure in which a negligible sum of people can afford. Pursuing higher education doesn’t guarantee job security, distribute happiness, or assure the success of financial…

discuss the quality of higher education (NSSE, n.d.). The working group discussed two measures of quality that already existed. They discussed college rankings, such as the rankings widely publicized by U.S. News and World Report, and institutional accreditation processes, as measures of quality. The Pew Charitable Trusts working group determined these measures are not enough because those ―established methods for assuring quality in higher education contain few external incentives for…

As explained by Grove, Gray, and Burns (2015), three areas of quality evaluation were developed by Donabedian in the late 1980’s. The first these are structure, which relates to the entity providing the care, such as a hospice agency (Grove et al., 2015). Next is the process or pathway used to provide the care, such as the “standard of care” example provided by Grove et al. (2015). The third area is outcomes, which refers to the results of the treatment or care received by the patient (Grove,…

In reading your response, I am made more aware of the key factor in my parents’ decision to homeschool my siblings and me, their desire for us to gain deeper knowledge.
