Florida School Indicator Report Data As Predictors Of High School Adequate Yearly Progress (ayp)Carr, John D 01 January 2011 (has links)
The focus of this research was to identify variables reported in the 2008-2009 Florida School Indicator Report (FSIR) that had a statistical impact, positive or negative, on the likelihood that a school would achieve Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) in reading or mathematics using the logistic regression technique. This study analyzed four broad categories reported by the FSIR to include academic, school, student, and teacher characteristics. FSIR and AYP data was collected for 468 Florida high schools that were categorized by the Florida Department of Education as presenting a comprehensive curriculum to grades 9-12 or grades 10-12. It was determined in this study that academic data associated with ACT results and the grade 11 FCAT Science were effective predictors of a school’s academic health in reading and mathematics. Student absenteeism showed the greatest impact on a school obtaining AYP in reading while the percentage of students qualifying for free and disabled populations within a school showed the greatest impact on a school obtaining AYP in mathematics. Teachers teaching out of field were identified as having a negative influence on AYP in reading and mathematics while a teacher’s experience was considered a positive influence on AYP in mathematics only. Further research is necessary to fully explore the use of logistic regression as a predictive tool at the state, school district, and school level.

Espacio urbano en el Piedemonte AndinoSoria Ramírez, Christian January 2014 (has links)
Arquitecto / Santiago, es una ciudad inserta en un
territorio de heterogéneo relieve y diversos
elementos naturales, los cuales generan
múltiples escenarios paisajísticos con
una gran capacidad de provocar arraigo e
identidad en la sociedad. Su confi guración
como valle aluvial, de fondo amplio y
plano, es rodeado por cordones montañosos
provenientes de la Cordillera de los Andes
y la Cordillera de la Costa, complementado
con una cantidad determinada pero
abundante de cerros isla distribuidos en este
gran plano inclinado por el cual escurren
los torrentes de ríos que tienen origen en
el derretimiento de la nieve y glaciares
acumulados en la zona cordillerana cercana
a la zona urbana, desencadenando una serie
de procesos que impactan de diversas formas
en la vida circundante. Sin embargo esta
atmósfera de geografía dinámica y cercanía
a hitos naturales, capaz de proyectar una
imagen ideal de ciudad en equilibrio con su
territorio, solo se ve relegada al imaginario
individual, y socialmente se muestra como
un anhelo común reflejado en la imagen
de la cordillera nevada algunos días de
invierno. Esta postal pregnante de los días
de invierno se inserta como un elemento que
resalta sobre el fondo paisajístico natural y
cotidiano urbano, y que fi nalmente forma
parte de ese constructo identitario posible
de realizar y potenciar en la ciudad de
Santiago.
