▼ Szakdolgozati összefoglaló Annak ténye, hogy Európát egyre inkább jellemzi az elöregedés tendenciája, már önmagában magával vonja a nyugdíjrendszerek megreformálásának mind sürgetőbb problematikáját. Magyarországon azonban a helyzetet még kritikusabbá teszi a Ratkó-gyerekek és Ratkó-unokák egyre közelgő nyugdíjazása. Dolgozatom egyik megválaszolandó kérdése, hogy az a magyar nyugdíjrendszer, mely Európában elsőként vezette be a Világbank 3 pilléres sémáját, és melynek példáját oly sokan követték, vajon az első és második pillér máig meglévő rendellenességei ellenére jó úton halad-e? Vajon az elmúlt évek teljesítményei alapján „bezzeg” országnak nevezett Szlovákia mutathat-e bárminemű példát Magyarországnak a nyugdíjrendszer terén? Harmadikként pedig a szolidaritás és korrektség megoszlása közti magyar, illetve szlovák gyakorlat megállapítására törekszem. Mindezen kérdések megválaszolásához kiindulásként napjaink nyugdíjrendszereinek szerepét szemléltetem világviszonylatban, ahonnan a rendszerváltáskori Közép- és Kelet-Európára szűkül a kép. Ebben a részben a szocialista nyugdíjrendszer bemutatása után az átmenet nyugdíjrendszerre gyakorolt hatásait ismeretem, melyet a potenciális megoldások felsorakoztatása követ. Ezután a magyar, majd a szlovák nyugdíjreform kerül górcső alá. Itt a gazdasági és demográfiai körülmények ismertetése alapozza meg a reformtervek és a megvalósított reformok részletes bemutatását. Majd az európai uniós koordinációs rendeletek kifejtése után, a mai magyar és szlovák nyugdíjrendszerek összehasonlítására kerül sor, kiemelt tekintettel az öregségi nyugdíjra. Ez a fejezet több szempont alapján megalkotott következtetéseket tartalmaz a két nyugdíjrendszer hatékonyságára vonatkozóan. A kutatás az alábbi következtetésekre jutott. Az út, amire Magyarország ’98-ban lépett egy helyes alternatíva, Az alapvető gond abban keresendő, hogy sem a reform során, sem azóta nem került sor az első pillér szakszerű átalakítására, továbbá a második pillér szabályozása is fontos pontokban hibádzik. Továbbá nem lenne szabad elfelejtkezni arról sem, hogy egy ilyen hosszú távú döntés állandóságot igényel. A törvényi szabályozáson túl mind demográfiai, mind foglalkoztatottsági tényezőktől is erősen függ a nyugdíjrendszer. A magyar és a szlovák nyugdíjrendszerek összevetése során megállapítható, hogy a két rendszer között szignifikáns eltérés nem található. Számottevő eltérésként a magyarnál valamivel kisebb első, és nagyobb második pillér, az eltérő finanszírozási struktúra, illetve a pályakezdői kötelezettség értékelhető. A csekély különbség okát pedig elsősorban nem is a nyugdíjrendszeri szabályozás differenciálódásában, hanem leginkább a növekedési ütemben is megmutatkozó gazdasági, és demográfiai eltérésekben látom. Ezek lemásolása pedig már közel sem olyan egyszerű feladat, mint a nyugdíjrendszeri szabályozások átvétele. A szolidaritás-korrektség kérdését tekintve arra a következtetésre jutottam, hogy míg a második pillérek közt nem igazán beszélhetünk különbségről addig az első pillérről megállapítható,… Advisors/Committee Members: Sigér, Fruzsina (advisor).

▼ Miközben a Nemzeti Köznevelés Rendszerének többször is megfogalmazott és kimondott célkitűzése és szándéka, hogy az iskola élén álló igazgató minden más feladatát a pedagógiai feladatoknak rendelje alá, azaz a pedagógiai irányultságú tevékenységek váljanak uralkodóvá az iskolaigazgató munkájában, mert ez kedvez egyértelműen az iskola fejlődésének, addig az igen fontosnak tekinthető munkáltatói jogok erős csorbát szenvedtek. „(…) a munkáltatói jog hiányában nem beszélhetnénk az iskolák szakmai önállóságáról” állapítja meg a Köznevelésért Felelős Államtitkár korábban. Arra a kérdésre, hogy milyen szakmai önállóság érvényesül majd rövid-és középtávon a hazai köznevelési intézményekben a 2013. január 1-jén felállt 198 tankerületet magában foglaló tankerületi rendszerben, majd idővel kapunk választ. A nagyobb állami szerepvállalás célja az, hogy az ország minden iskolájában egyformán magas színvonalú nevelésben-oktatásban részesülhessenek a gyerekek. A megújuló köznevelési rendszer orvosolja, de legalábbis enyhíti azokat a társadalmi problémákat, amelyekre a korábbi fenntartói szerkezetben nem volt lehetőség. Dr. Gloviczki Zoltán helyettes államtitkár szerint: „Az állami fenntartásba vétel elsődleges célja az iskolarendszer igazságosabbá tétele. A nagyobb állami szerepvállalás biztosítja az egyenlő hozzáférés lehetőségét, kiszámíthatóbbá, biztonságosabbá teszi az iskolák világát, és az egyes intézmények helyzetét.” Az állam képes ugyanis egyenlő esélyeket teremteni az eltérő helyzetű települési önkormányzatok helyett. Ennek megfelelően a lakosság számától függően ketté vált a korábbi fenntartói feladat működtetői és fenntartói, azaz szakmai irányítói feladatra. A települési önkormányzatok működtetői feladatait a törvény részletesen szabályozza. Ebben a szakdolgozatban arra vállalkoztam, hogy bemutassam azt a szerves fejlődési folyamatot a Mária Terézia által kiadott I. Ratio Educationistól a nemzeti köznevelésről szóló törvényig (illetve annak módosításaiig), amely során megteremtődött az a magyar neveléstörténeti hagyomány, amelynek erényeire kíván támaszkodni a 2010-ben felállt oktatásirányítás az adott kor követelményei között. A XIX. században báró Eötvös József és Trefort Ágoston politikája képviseli azt a nemzeti liberalizmust az oktatásügyben (is), amely 1848 után a magyar történelem „zivataros századai” miatt az 1990-es rendszerváltozáskor jutott először szerephez a demokratikus jogállam kiépítésével egyidejűleg, s amelynek bizonyítéka az 1993-ban megszületett közoktatási (és felsőoktatási) törvény, amely a nevelés teljes vertikumát felölelte. Az 1920-as években a „keresztény kurzust” gróf Klebelsberg Kunó, a nemzeti nevelést pedig az 1930-as években Hóman Bálint minisztersége, illetve az általuk képviselt kultuszrendszer jeleníti meg. A két világháború közötti kultúrpolitika számos elvi és gyakorlati pedagógiai vita forrásává vált, amely nem kímélte sem az Antall-kormányt, sem a második Orbán-kormányt. Ezekben a vitákban két alapvető ideológia összecsapásának lehettünk a tanúi. Kimondva vagy kimondatlanul a… Advisors/Committee Members: Bíró, Gyula (advisor).

▼ We studied what happened after the reform, of the first semester, calculus-based introductory physics course, that took place almost 20 years ago. We examined how the physical environment, curriculum, the method of instruction, and the learning gain as measured by the FCI have changed over time since the reform. The system that was put in place by the originators of the reform seems to be self-sustaining because the overall structure of the reform has remained largely intact. The course content and the lab experiments have remained almost the same. However, some minor modifications such as the introduction of the cooperative group problem-solving and the use of online homework are being used by some lead instructors teaching this course. The graduate students are introduced as primary instructors, LAs are being used as the secondary assistants in the studio, and clickers questions are being used in the lectures. The FCI was used to assess the learning gain of the students and the success of the initial reform. The data show that the learning gain was higher immediately after the reform but has dropped more than a decade later. The focus of the research has been to explore the reasons for the fall in the learning gain in later semesters. Knowing why it dropped would give us information about how to sustain future reforms. We show that our data is reliable and use it to eliminate several possible explanations for the drop in the learning gain. For future study, one may look at the amount of time faculty spend thinking about teaching and how that changes over time as a measure of ``investment" in the course. One can also study how the group formation in the studio affects the learning gain. One may also take videos of the lectures and the studios and analyze them to see how is the distribution of time for the quiz/CGPS, lab experiment and the review of the homework problems in each studio, how much do the students actually get the opportunities to engage in active learning, how much do each students in a cooperative group contribute in learning. All these detail video analyses can provide answers to the changes in the learning gain if there is any in the future. Advisors/Committee Members: James Laverty.

▼ The American health care system is seriously flawed and in need of reform. American health care is expensive and rationed by the ability to pay. More than forty-five million Americans lack regular access to health care because they have no health insurance and cannot afford to pay for care on their own. An even greater number of Americans have inadequate access to health care because their health insurance provides insufficient coverage. Even well-insured Americans, most of whom get their health insurance through their employers, have problems because their out-of-pocket expenses are escalating while their coverage is shrinking. Contemporary public discourse suggests that many if not most Americans are dissatisfied with the health care system as it is currently structured and are ready for change but are uncertain about how to achieve reform. Although the American people disagree about what a reformed health care system should be they are nearly unanimous in their dissatisfaction with both access to and cost of health care. The voice of the American people needs to be focused into a coherent, cohesive message calling for reform and the message must be honed and repeated to exert pressure on the government to act in accord with the will of the people rather than that of special interest groups. This dissertation will address the issue of what the American people can do to effect comprehensive reform of the American health care system, focusing on how to begin the process and not on what the reformed system should be. The thesis of this dissertation is that a social reform movement is in order and might be necessary in order to accomplish comprehensive reform of American health care. The thesis will develop in three parts, examining American health care from three perspectives, justice, policy, and reform. Part One will focus on why reform is necessary. Part Two will focus on why a social reform movement is in order. Part Three will focus on what the American people can do to accomplish the successful reform of the American health care system that has so far eluded the political and legislative processes.

▼ The U.S. has finally moved towards the reform of its health system. On March 23, 2010 the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was signed into law by President Barack Obama. With goals of expanded health coverage, access to quality, affordable health care, and reducing health care costs, the law sought to ensure that eligible U.S. citizens had health insurance regardless of ability to pay or existing medical conditions. Key to meeting the goal of providing health insurance was the creation of state Health Insurance Exchanges (HIEs). To support the provision of guaranteed health care coverage to millions of uninsured and at-risk/vulnerable populations HIEs were mandated to contract with community based organizations and consumer advocacy agencies to serve as navigator programs. These agencies were charged with reaching, educating, and enrolling individuals into health plans. Establishing HIEs to serve as public marketplaces for purchasing health plans is new to the U.S. private insurance market. Thus, selecting business models and creating governance structures were key to HIE effectiveness in carrying out federally mandated functions. Also, ensuring the use of navigator strategies that were successful in reaching at-risk/vulnerable populations was critical. This research examined the creation of State Based HIEs in sixteen states and the District of Columbia to assess HIE business models and governance structures. It also explored traditional patient navigator programs to identify strategies proven to be successful in reaching at-risk/vulnerable populations for the delivery of health care services and treatment. Findings show that choice of business model (state agency, quasi-governmental, or non-profit) and governance structure (board membership apportionment, appointment, and composition) could impact HIE effectiveness. Key was removal of certain design issues and barriers that impacted effective operation. A review of traditional navigator programs identified strategies that were successful in reaching at-risk/vulnerable patients and facilitating treatment and care. Program elements such as advocacy, ethnic and racial concordance, and use of navigators who had experienced the same illness, were among some of the factors that were identified as elements of successful strategies. This research is expected to provide baseline information on the development of State Based HIEs and HIE navigator programs as health reform in the U.S. continues to evolve.

▼ Comparisons of HR practices among states that have implemented significant elements of the civil service reform agenda should contribute to developing more accurate strategic HR plans and policies by providing both scholars and practitioners with opportunities to diagnose issues and problems of the current civil service systems. Based on Hays and Sowa’s 2007 study of U.S. state governments’ personnel system changes, each state’s personnel policies, and Whalen and Guy’s 2008 study, this research found that six states, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Missouri, and South Carolina, have implemented significant elements of the civil service reform agenda, including HR decentralization, at-will employment, a narrow range of grievable issues, declined job security, pay-for-performance, and broadbanding. By focusing on these six states, the present study examines four main research questions: (1) How do state civil service systems differ?; (2) What are the key elements of each state’s civil service reform?; (3) How do HR professionals evaluate their states’ use of elements of the civil service reform agenda with regard to effectiveness?; and (4) What key factors influence HR professionals’ satisfaction with their states’ civil service reform elements? According to 2010 Civil Service Reform Assessment survey results, most states had implemented an online-hiring process, strategic workforce planning (only Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina), employee suggestion programs (no employee suggestion programs in Colorado), employee development programs, performance appraisal guidelines, workforce diversity programs, and audit systems at the time of survey administration. Six states have experienced the implementation of the civil service reform elements to different extents. Through the data analyses, the present study has found that many HR professionals who participated in the survey were not satisfied with their states’ civil service systems and civil service reform elements. For instance, overall assessment of civil service systems and civil service reform elements by HR professionals in the Missouri and South Carolina state governments who responded to the survey are less positive than other states (except in their assessment of broadbanding). Compared to them, HR professionals in Florida and Georgia who experienced radical civil service reform seemed to more positively assess effectiveness or efficiency of their states’ civil service systems and civil service reform elements. The results from ordered logistic regression analyses showed that HR professionals' perceptions of management leadership on employee value, attitudes towards resources or opportunity allocation to employees, HR professionals' perceptions of helpfulness of CSR consultation, and HR professionals’ demographic characteristics may influence HR professionals’ attitudes towards civil service systems and their assessments of civil service reform elements. The present study contributes to developing strategic and adaptable civil service reform… Advisors/Committee Members: J. Edward Kellough.

▼ A study was conducted utilizing a mixed ANOVA design for descriptive and comparative analysis to investigate a project-based learning intervention in five bilingual campuses. Prior to this intervention, there was no implementation of school reform that was specifically designed for English language learners (ELLs). This intervention was conducted for 4 years during a Title VII comprehensive school reform grant to determine any relationship between the intervention and student achievement in reading, math, and language in both English and Spanish. There were five campuses in the treatment group and four campuses in the district comparison group. The treatment group received instruction in project-based learning in English and Spanish, and both groups followed the district curriculum guidelines as to the Spanish/English allotment. There was a cohort of 225 students in Grades 1, 2, and 3 in Spanish reading instruction and a cohort of 23 students in Grades 4 and 5 in English reading instruction. Both cohorts were tested in the language of instruction on a yearly basis. Spanish academic performance was measured with the Aprenda, while English academic performance was measured with the Stanford 9 and 10. Normal Curve Equivalency scores (NCEs) were collected to determine the effect of treatment and time. English language proficiency was measured with the Reading Proficiency Test in English (RPTE) using whole-school growth with treatment, district comparison, and state comparison percentages of growth. The treatment group had higher mean scores than the comparison schools at the beginning of the intervention, but both groups declined in performance. There was a strong indicator that the treatment campuses experienced an ?implementation dip? as a result of this curricular innovation. Changes in administration affected both groups. Variables such as mobility rate, student-to-teacher ratio, and district/state level changes were also discussed. There was no statistically significant impact of treatment on Hispanic ELL students as a result of the 4-year Techno-learning project.

▼ Current research has described a changed central office perspective that not only includes campus principals as part of the district's leadership team, but also focuses on developing principals' instructional abilities with the purpose of supporting school reform. However, to date, research has not provided examples of a successful relationship between campus principals as a collective group and the district (central office) leadership team attempting to implement district-wide high school reform. This study was conducted in order to examine the perceptions of high school principals (in an urban school district in Texas) toward district-wide initiated high school reform. Methods used for data collection included semi-structured interviews, review of available artifacts, and case profile development. Questions derived from the researcher's review of the literature and ongoing professional interest were the basis for dialogue during the semi-structured interviews. All interviews were recorded, transcribed, and unitized. The data were further organized into categories and subcategories. The analysis of principals' perceptions provided insight and helped develop an understanding of obstacles that high school principals perceive in implementing district-led high school reform. This study has concluded that the district goals and mission do not define the daily operations of a campus. Instead, the district goals and mission are often reprioritized because principals are insecure, believe they have a better understanding of the local context than does the central office, and are oftentimes frustrated by the central office's political machinations. Recommendations include suggestions on how to eliminate these obstacles, improve the ability of principals to implement district-led high school reform, and how to suggest actions for the improvement of the high school reform process at the central office level. Advisors/Committee Members: Skrla, Linda (advisor), Burlbaw, Lynn (committee member), McKenzie, Kathryn (committee member), Scheurich, James J. (committee member).

▼ This study examined student achievement scores in Kentucky elementary schools to determine the relationship between implementing the America's Choice comprehensive school reform model and student achievement in mathematics. Six research questions guide this study; For the seven America's Choice schools for third grade mathematics: (1) To what degree do the America's choice schools differ from the statewide mean for math achievement at the beginning of the program, (2) To what extent is the year of implementation related to math achievement, (3) To what extent are differences between schools related to math achievement, (4) To what extent is the beginning year of the program related to math achievement, (5) What is the effect of controlling for demographic factors on Research Questions 2-4, and (6) For the three years of the America's choice mathematics program (Year 1, Year 2, and Continuation 1), how does the progress of the America's Choice schools compare to that statewide for the same period? For this study, the researcher analyzed the Comprehensive Test of Basic Skills (CTBS/5) Normal Curve Equivalency (NCE) mathematics scores for third grade/exiting primary students in seven Kentucky schools implementing America's Choice in mathematics. Achievement data from the Kentucky Department of Education for the years 2001-2005 were collected across four cohorts, including year prior to implementation, two years of implementation, the following continuation year, and related demographic factors. Research Questions 2-5 utilized two multiple regression models to study the relationships between math achievement, change model predictors (year of implementation, schools, beginning year), and demographics. One sample t tests were employed for RQs 1 and 6. All analyses were conducted using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) computer program. Results of the study on the seven Kentucky elementary schools were inconclusive. While the statistical analysis indicated gains in mathematics achievement for some schools, others demonstrated declines during implementation years and continuation year. For demographic variables, size of school had the strongest correlation (r = .140) with NCE math scores. This research provides insights for schools considering adopting America's Choice as a reform model impacting mathematics achievement. Since this study was specific to Kentucky, future research is needed to expand to other states. Advisors/Committee Members: Miller, Stephen K..

▼ Since 2006, the Australian Government has introduced three sets of reforms to Aboriginal land ownership in the Northern Territory. This thesis considers those reforms as they have been implemented in the period until 2013, and analyses how they came about, what they do, their consequences and the potential for alternative approaches. The three sets of reforms considered here are township leasing, the reforms introduced as part of the Northern Territory Emergency Response (including the compulsory acquisition of five-year leases) and ‘secure tenure’ policies as they apply to housing and other infrastructure. These reforms arose out of a widespread public debate about Aboriginal land reform that began in 2004. The thesis argues that this debate was conducted using vague and ill-defined terminology that was poorly suited to a discussion of communities on Aboriginal land, which are the areas affected by the recent reforms. In particular, there was a high reliance on the concepts of ‘communal ownership’ and ‘individual ownership’. This impacted in several ways. To a considerable extent, it led to the wrong issues being contested. It also resulted in pertinent issues, such as home ownership and economic development, being debated in a manner that was far more divisive and less instructive than was necessary or helpful. This contributed to confusion about what land reform can do, and some of that confusion is reflected in the implementation of the reforms. The reforms have not – as was suggested during the debate – led to widespread ownership of land by individual Aboriginal residents. They have resulted in the formalisation of tenure arrangements in accordance with new government policies. The two most significant consequences of this have been changes to community governance, including a deepening of the role played by governments, and the introduction of more widespread rent. The thesis assesses the consequences of these developments, as well as the impact of the reforms on home ownership and economic development. The thesis concludes by setting out a framework for developing alternative approaches to land reform that are more responsive to the needs and circumstance of communities on Aboriginal land.

▼ This study examines the contribution of South Africa’s land reform programme to agricultural development and economic growth with a focus on land reform projects in KwaZulu-Natal province. The objective of the study was to understand the extent to which the restitution, redistribution and land tenure programmes are achieving the country’s land reform objectives. Key objectives of the democratic South African government’s land reform programme since 1994 have been to redress the unjust racially skewed patterns of land ownership in the country, and to boost the rural economy. Significant quantities of land have been returned or transferred to previously disadvantaged communities, and the majority of the redistributed land involves agricultural land use as the government has aimed to transfer 30 % of commercial agricultural land to emerging farmers. This study focuses on these agricultural land reform projects and assesses the contribution of the land reform policy to the agricultural production and operation of these projects. The study adopted a qualitative, case study research design. The target population for the study included representatives from the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform, the KwaZulu-Natal Department of Economic Development, Tourism and Environmental Affairs, the KwaZulu-Natal Agribusiness Development Agency, and selected land reform projects. Face-to-face, semi-structured interviews were conducted with these representatives to gather information on the land reform programme’s contribution to agricultural development and economic growth in KwaZulu-Natal. A review of literature on post-settlement issues in land reform was used as a source of secondary information. The study finds that a lack of post-settlement support from government remains the greatest challenge to the successful implementation of the land reform policy in South Africa. Agricultural development through land reform has been achieved largely due to support from the private sector in the form of technical assistance, skills training, maintenance and agribusiness training. With such support, large numbers of projects have managed to acquire the equipment necessary for sustained agricultural production. The study therefore concludes that whilst South Africa’s land reform programme has succeeded in transferring land ownership, this land cannot be used effectively to generate agricultural outputs without adequate funding and support. In order to achieve agrarian reform, land reform projects need to receive the appropriate post-settlement support from both government and the private sector. Lastly, recommendations for the current land reform policy are presented as well as possible avenues for future research. Advisors/Committee Members: Rajaram, Rajendra. (advisor).

▼ Since the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) founding in 1921, scholars worldwide have examined and discussed the Party’s core policies: land usage rights and hukou system. However, limited analyses have been dedicated to the interrelatedness of these two reforms. Therefore, this paper reviews origins of the CCP’s land reform in rural China starting with the Jiangxi‐Soviet Republic (early 1930s) to developments during the anti‐Japanese struggle (1937-1945) and civil war with the Kuomintang (1945-1949) and investigates a series of land policies post‐1949. Among many impacts, these land reforms have contributed positively to increased governmental control in rural regions but negatively to loss of social equity for rural residents. ❧ Similarly, China’s household registration or Hukou （户口）System, an institution formed to restrict population mobility, contributed positively to the CCP’s central planning but negatively limited rural dwellers' access to state‐sponsored benefits. Variations of hukou‐like residency systems have been institutionalized in China for thousands of years but post‐1949, the CCP’s goal was to track ""targeted people"" and thus prevented anti‐revolutionary movements. An unintended consequence of CCP’s hukou system created the distinction between rural and urban residents. This classification resulted in the uneven economic development between various regions across China as the CCP policies favored urbanites through social benefits. ❧ For the past three decades, China’s leaders have been reforming both land usage rights and hukou system. In 1978, Deng Xiaoping initiated these changes, opened China’s market to the world, and contributed to the country’s unprecedented growth. More recently, in November 2013, Chinese Communist Party’s Third Plenary Session of the eighteenth Central Committee, chaired by President Xi Jinping, marked the thirty‐fifth anniversary of Deng’s previous market reforms. Although the 2013 plenum spoke highly of Deng’s plenum, China’s market was unevenly developed between rural and urban areas. Xi’s administration aimed to address cumulative effect of these reforms while building a harmonious modern socialist country. This paper first examines China’s land policies and hukou system in a historical context, and then discusses various reform impacts, followed by the analyses of Xi’s policy challenges. Advisors/Committee Members: Chen, Baizhu (Committee Chair), Cooper, Eugene (Committee Member), Sheehan, Brett G. (Committee Member).
