De divers points de vue, cette problématique peut être caractérisée par la nécessité de concilier deux objectifs politiques distincts : d’une part, fournir des revenus suffisants pour financer l’éducation supérieure et, d’autre part, assurer aux étudiants l’accessibilité à cette même éducation supérieure. Le gouvernement de l’Ontario a été confronté à ces deux aspects contradictoires de la question et il en est résulté des changements majeurs dans la politique des droits d’inscription depuis dix ans. Le présent article revient sur l’histoire de la politique des droits d’inscription en Ontario, décrit les récentes évolutions et les principaux défis politiques afférents à l’attitude des différentes institutions envers la réglementation actuelle qui expirera au terme de l’année universitaire 2009-2010.  \n74 CJHE / RCES Volume 39, No. 1, 2009  \nINTRODUCTION  \nPolicy-makers and institutional administrators have long struggled with the question of college and university student tuition fees. In many ways this struggle may be characterized as a negotiation between two distinct policy goals: providing revenue to adequately finance higher education and ensuring student accessibility to higher education. On the one hand, maximizing flexibility around student fees helps diversify and increase resources to support higher education institutions. On the other hand, capping fees and maintaining a reasonable level of fee homogeneity (among programs and institutional types) help support access.  \nRecent history in the Canadian province of Ontario illustrates the challenges involved in balancing institutional resource needs with access concerns. The last 10 years have seen considerable change in the Government of Ontario’s policy toward tuition fees at publicly assisted universities and colleges of applied arts and technology (CAATs) . Prior to 1998, universities and colleges would wait for an annual government announcement on how much tuition they could charge for the coming academic year. This amount would be described as a percentage increase over the previous year, but it was also tied to a “formula fee” contained in the respective provincial operating grants’ manual for the university and college sectors. The formula fees acted as an anchor for fees across programs andinstitutions, allowing some differentiation but largely keeping all fees within a relatively narrow band. There was little, if any, differentiation among individual universities and among individual CAATs.  \nThis pattern of incremental tuition fee increases changed dramatically in the 1998–99 academic year. Tuition fees for some programs were decoupled from the formula fee, tuition differentiation among programs was written into policy, and tuition differentiation","cbCaigHLu0ZsiuTI","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaigHLu0ZsiuTI","pdf",144406,15,"English","# Introduction\n# Background (1980–1998)\n# Policy changes (1998–99)\n# Current policy framework (2006–07)\n# Policy issues and institutional behaviour","[{\"question\":\"What two policy goals does the article associate with tuition-setting challenges?\",\"answer\":\"It frames tuition negotiations as balancing adequate revenue to finance higher education with maintaining student accessibility to that education.\"},{\"question\":\"How did tuition fee setting change in Ontario around 1998–99?\",\"answer\":\"The article states that tuition fees for some programs were decoupled from the formula fee, differentiation among programs was incorporated into policy, and differentiation among institutions also emerged.\"},{\"question\":\"What major policy developments followed the 1998–99 changes?\",\"answer\":\"A tuition freeze occurred in 2003–04, followed by the introduction of a new tuition framework in 2006–07.\"}]","Ontario’s University Tuition Framework - A History and Current Policy Issues | PDF",1792084950,38]
