Grâce à des partenariats stratégiques, deux établissements postsecondaires localisés en Ontario (un collège et une université) ont créé des programmes de transferts innovateurset efficaces qui facilitent la transition des élèves entre les établissements pour l’obtention de diplômes et de certificats. Ces programmes soutiennent la formation de diplômés hautement qualifiés, prêts pour le marché du travail.  \nLe présent article présente une étude de méthodes mixtes portant sur lessuccèset les défisd’un programme de transfert particulier entre une université et un collège de l’Ontario, en misant particulièrement sur le programme de transfert du baccalauréat en commerce. Les résultats préliminaires indiquent que les étudiants du programme de transfert obtenaient de meilleursrésultatsscolaires que leurs homologues aux études universitaires traditionnelles, mais qu’ils ont dû surmonter quelques défis pendant la transition du collège à l’université . Parmi les principaux défis, on trouve une communication inefficace entre les administrateurs de programmes, les conseillerspédagogiques et les étudiants; un manque d’activités d’orientation pour les étudiants des programmes de transfert; un manque de préparation en matièrede communication et de pensée critique chez les collégiens; et des difficultéspour les collégiens à intégrer la vie sociale et culturelle de l’université .  \nIntroduction  \nIn summer 2005, Durham College and the University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT) initiated multiple pathway programs to help college students complete university degrees and university students complete college diplomas and certificates. The majority of these programs have been designed to support students who have completed a two-year college diploma to transition into ","cbCaiaqUKWrBRHFW","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaqUKWrBRHFW","pdf",827576,23,"English","# Introduction\n# Study focus and methods\n# Abstract and preliminary findings\n## Successes and challenges","[{\"question\":\"What institutions and program type does the study focus on?\",\"answer\":\"The study focuses on a college and a university in Ontario that developed pathway programs to support student transitions between institutions for degrees, diplomas, and certificates.\"},{\"question\":\"What did preliminary results suggest about pathway students’ academic performance?\",\"answer\":\"Preliminary results indicate pathway students were more academically successful than traditional university student counterparts.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the main challenges pathway students faced during transition?\",\"answer\":\"Key challenges included inefficient communication between program administrators, academic advisors, and students; lack of orientation activities; insufficient preparedness in communication and critical thinking skills; and difficulties integrating into the university’s social–cultural life.\"}]","Exploring Student and Advisor Experiences in a College-University Pathway Program: A Study of the Bachelor of Commerce Pathway - read online free | PDF",1792083463,58]
