Executive Summary, "Shared Responsibility: Higher Education in Prison Programs Evaluations Analysis"
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- With the expansion of postsecondary education programs in prisons, there is a lack of reliable infrastructure to evaluate them. This project aims “to develop a more robust research and data infrastructure for evaluating the quality and impacts of higher education in prison programs.” The full report sets a historical context to explain the current politics regarding higher education in prison programs. This is followed by a landscape overview with Ithaka S+R’s Unbarring Access report, and current evaluation practices at various levels including single program, statewide, and meta-analysis. The report concludes by recommending some frameworks that programs can utilize to best support incarcerated students. It is through this work that we hope to not only facilitate the creation of an evaluation infrastructure but we also seek to humanize prison education by moving beyond recidivism.
