This study details the development of a public affairs reporting course for journalism schools in resource-limited communities offered at a land-grant institution surrounded by a resource-strapped community. This chapter focuses on inequalities related to opportunities for engagement, both when it comes to newsrooms and academic settings. More specifically, we address the challenges of teaching a multimedia-based curriculum while maintaining historical relationships with local citizens in Michigan. Our approach of combining survey, content analysis, in-depth interviews, and a field experiment provides a framework for connecting journalism education with communities surrounding land-grant institutions.

The Coordinator

Abstract For nearly 20 years, gerontology and geriatric administrators and faculty have been challenged by managing “tough times” related to low enrollment and reduced or limited funding for their programs. At the same time, the aging population continues to increase and the need for highly trained individuals to work with and on behalf of older adults are needed in all sectors of the workforce. In this paper, I will build on previous empirical and theoretical work from AGHE and GSA Fellows as I integrate personal experience from my fifteen years at a land-grant university, whereby I serve as the coordinator of our undergraduate gerontology minor. In particular, in an effort to uplift the 2019 conference theme, I will organize my thoughts from the lens of university-community engagement, as I describe how to best harness networks to support and leverage gerontology and geriatrics programs.

Institutional Engagement

The purpose of this study is to provide an overview of how open universities depict their current institutional engagement in open educational practices. In view of the growth of programming for non-traditional students by conventional universities, particularly through online learning and increasing interest in open educational practices, the intention is to gain a better understanding of the unique contributions currently made, or potentially to be made, by open universities in comparison to conventional universities. The study is conducted through a content analysis of open university websites, exploring key themes related to access-oriented open educational practices derived from terms and related concepts in relevant literature. With the growth of distance education, online learning, and other emerging access-oriented open educational practices in traditional higher education, open universities should be uniquely situated to provide visible leadership in these domains. The open university website content analysis explores the extent to which this is the case.
