Cultural Considerations in Postsecondary and Vocational Education: A Discussion on Equity and Accessibility
Abstract
This chapter focuses on the culture of a college in post-secondary education and how the educational institution can affect how others experience it. Specifically, this chapter looks at varying aspects of culture that relate to engagement, instruction, operations, and campus climate. Cultural considerations in post-secondary and vocation education are also discussed in the context of the current issues facing college campuses, with a specific concentration on student retention, online education, instructional practices, funding practices, and the acceptance of people groups. Throughout this chapter, considerations are offered for the institution to determine potential benefits to an institution. It is the choice of the institution to make choices that best fit the needs of its students. Not every choice will benefit every institution as no two institutions are the same. However, there are benefits in education to what others have attempted and learn from past educational experience.
