  • Medical School
    Medical School Texas A&M Professional School Advising can advise you realistically on whether you are a competitive applicant for admission to medical school, however only you can decide if medical school is truly what you want to do. One way to explore your interest is to gain exposure by volunteering and shadowing in the different healthcare professions we advise for. You can also observe or shadow a physician and talk to professionals in the different fields of healthcare. Another way is to read information about professional schools and medicine as a career and to join one of the campus pre-health organizations. What type of major looks best? Many applicants believe that medical schools want science majors or that certain programs prefer liberal arts majors. In actuality medical schools have no preference in what major you choose as long as you do well and complete the pre-requisite requirements. Texas A&M does not have a pre-medical academic track which is why we suggest that you choose a major that leads to what you would select as an alternative career. The reason for this line of logic is that you generally do better in a major you are truly passionate and interested in and in return is another great way to determine whether medicine is the right choice. Plus an alternative career provides good insurance if you should happen to change direction or postpone entry. Texas A&M University offers extensive and exciting majors to choose from in eleven diverse colleges. If your chosen major does not include the prerequisite courses in its curriculum, you must complete the required courses mentioned below either as science credit hours or elective credit hours.

  • Professor, Student, and Course Attributes That Contribute to Successful Teaching Evaluations
    Professor, Student, and Course Attributes that Contribute to Successful Teaching Evaluations Michael J. Seiler, Vicky L. Seiler, and Dalen Chiang This study examines eight professor, student, and course attributes that affect four specific areas of teaching evaluations. All eight attributes significantly affect at least one of the four groups of student evaluation of teaching (SET) questions. The extant literature has previously ignored the fact that more than one factor exists. This has resulted in contradictory or inconclusive findings. Our study uses a more sophisticated methodology that allows for the delineation of all these intricate relationships. As a result, more clear and robust results emerge.[JEL: I20, I22, A00] n Universities and colleges recognize more than ever four distinct areas. This has never been done before. the need to achieve high levels of teaching performance The data used in the current study is from a single in the classroom. Accordingly, this desire is being university. However, it is representative of the SET reflected by promotion and tenure (P&T) committees surveys used around the country. For example, studies who have adjusted their criteria across all business using SET surveys that ask the same questions as majors (Accounting Education Change Commission, the survey under examination include Tenant and 1990; Bures and Tong, 1993; Burnett, Amason, and Lawrence (1975)-(time of day), Howell and Johnson Cunningham, 1989; and Schultz, Meade, and Khurana, (1982), and Stout, Bonfield, and Battista (1987)- 1989).

  • What Makes an Excellent Professor?
    The Journal of Effective Teaching an online journal devoted to teaching excellence Letter from the Editor-in-Chief: What Makes an Excellent Professor? Russell L. Herman1 The University of North Carolina Wilmington, Wilmington, NC The best professors treat students like people, not numbers; they go beyond their call of duty in terms of helping students and holding office hours; they not only know their mate- rial, but they also know how to teach it well. They understand the student and concerns the class may have. … a great professor must also be defined in terms of quality of re- search done, involvement in the campus community, quality of teaching, and other impor- tant criteria.2 Readers of The Journal of Effective Teaching are most likely those who are continually looking for what they can use to improve their teaching. Our authors are those who have explored a variety of methods in some depth. The papers in these volumes typically ad- dress specific methods, like cooperative learning, team teaching, and experiential learn- ing, or student behaviors and learning styles. However, papers in The Journal of Effective Teaching doe not generally explore the qualities and behavior of an excellent teacher. So, I now ask, “What makes an effective professor in the classroom?” We all constantly struggle to improve our teaching. Many of us are introverts and feared our first teaching experiences as graduate teaching assistants or beginning professors. Good teachers struggle with this question throughout their career.

  • Comparison of Course Completion and Student Performance Through Online and Traditional Courses
    Comparison of Course Completion and Student Performance through Online and Traditional Courses S A) in OnlineCourses Wayne Atchley1, Gary Wingenbach2, and Cindy Akers3 1Tarleton State University, USA, 2Texas A&M University, USA, 3Texas Tech University, USA Abstract Enrollment in online courses has outpaced overall university enrollment for the past several years. The growth of online courses does not appear to be slowing. The purpose of this study was to compare course completion and student academic performance between online and traditional courses. Archival data from the host university student records system was collected using the Structured Query Language. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze student characteristics. Chi-square analysis was used to determine if statistically significant differences existed between students enrolled in online and traditional courses when comparing course completion and academic performance. Analysis found statistically significant differences existed in both course completion and academic performance for students enrolled in online versus traditional courses. Additional analysis indicated statistically significant differences existed in course completion by course discipline. Keywords: Online education; student performance; student retention Comparison of Course Completion and Student Performances through Online and Traditional Courses Atchley, Wingenbach, and Akers Introduction In the fall of 2007, more than 17.9 million students were enrolled in degree-granting, postsecondary institutions. Of those students, more than 3.9 million were enrolled in one or more online courses. Online enrollments represented 21.9% of total enrollments. From fall 2002 to fall 2007, online enrollments grew at a compound annual growth rate of 19.7% from 1.6 million to more than 3.9 million (Allen & Seaman, 2008).
