San Diego, CA (PRWEB) September 16, 2011
The Hybrid Doctor of Business Administration program is unique amongst programs in San Diego due to its blended format and affordable tuition. Hybrid Doctor of Business Administration courses blend the best of both worlds, having both an on campus and online component in each course. California Miramar Universitys School of Business & Management is proud to be included in The List of top 10 MBA Schools in San Diego County, published in the San Diego Business Journal. The Doctor of Business Administration Hybrid program at California Miramar University is still accepting applications for the October 2011 cohort.
The Doctorate of Business Administration program is designed to provide managers and leaders with a global perspective which emphasizes the use of both practical and theoretical approaches. The Core, Concentration, and Dissertation course syllabi are organized around this goal. The successful completion of class projects and assignments require research skills and the discovery of new knowledge as students search for solutions to problems in todays ever changing environment.
California Miramar University offers doctoral business degree (DBA) in four areas of concentration, allowing students the opportunity to focus on what is meaningful to their professional growth and development: Finance, International Business, Marketing, or Strategic Management.
There are several program objectives for the Doctor in Business Administration Program at California Miramar University. One objective is to demonstrate comprehensive knowledge of the theoretical underpinnings of the different disciplines and concepts covered in the program. Secondly, to critically analyze the literature and empirical evidence of the theories in his or her areas of concentration and to master the content management research methodology.

Moreover, they will learn to analyze and evaluate the theories and applications underlying multiple data collection techniques used in business.

The DBA requires coursework and research beyond the Masters degree that normally results in a dissertation or journal publication that contributes to business theory or practice.

Acceptance to the program is based on past academic and professional experience. California Miramar University offers year round enrollment. Interested Doctor of Business Administration applicants should contact the office of admissions at admissions(at)calmu(dot)edu or call 858-653-3000 x12.

Twining now uses IDX, Inc.âs primary application, IDX Broker, to display and completely integrate Multiple Listing Service (MLS) listings on his personal website.

XLPrep.com Increases Students’ Scores for Math and Algebra I California Standardized Tests

XLPrep.com Increases Students’ Scores for Math and Algebra I California Standardized Tests
Los Angeles (PRWEB) October 29, 2009
XLPrep.com, a leading provider of online test preparation services, recently released the results of a study that proves its effectiveness in increasing math scores for California standardized tests (CST).
The study followed 9th graders at a high school in Los Angeles and measured results for the Algebra I CST. Students used the XLPrep.com online learning program, which was designed according to California content standards, as homework assignments aligned with the in-class curriculum.
As the study reveals, students who used the XLPrep.com program and completed at least 90 questions scored an average of 59 CST points higher than students who did not use the program. This increase was found to be statistically significant and is noteworthy because a jump from the Below Basic to Basic performance level on the CST is 46 points, while a jump from the Basic to Proficient performance level is 49 points. In addition to the substantial 59-point improvement, it was also found that the class as a whole scored at higher performance levels when using XLPrep.com. In 2008, when XLPrep.com was not used, most students in this teacher’s class were at the Basic performance level or below; in 2009, when the program was used, most students were at the Basic performance level or above. According to the teacher using the innovative program, he employed no other substantial changes to his teaching approach in 2009 vs. 2008 other than using XLPrep.com, and the improvement in class performance could be attributed to XLPrep.com.
“This study shows extremely encouraging results for XLPrep.com and for students not only in California but around the country,” said Sharon Masek, CEO of XLPrep.com. “Our innovative, online math programs can give students the support they need to learn with greater efficiency, achieve higher test scores, and succeed more in mathematics,” she added.
XLPrep.com online programs contain lessons, quizzes, and tests for all content standards in Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, and Probability and Statistics. The program provides practice questions for and shows student scores by individual content standards. The company’s software adapts to each student by giving more practice questions where the student is challenged and fewer questions on concepts the student has mastered. The same software is also being widely used by California high schools to help their students pass the California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE).
Published results of the math CST preparation study can be found at http://www.xlprep.com/Math_CST_Program_Effectiveness.pdf. To learn more about XLPrep.com, please visit http://www.xlprep.com.
