CHAPTER 04: DISCUSSION

Research has indicated that, on average, employees with bachelor's degree earn more than workers without college credit.

To understand this problem, the learning styles of two distinct populations of the university community, education students and students in recovery, were examined. Although two groups revealed significant differences in their perceptual strengths and hemispheric processing styles, comparative analysis revealed significant differences for specific elements of learning style, depending on the sex of participants and level of achievement. Moreover, these two groups of students also showed significantly different correlations.

In fact, the gap in college participation among low-income students high and medium has expanded in many states. Furthermore, only slightly higher percentage of college students completes two four-year degrees. On the contrary, many of our country's global competitors have surpassed Saudi Arabia in access to higher education and the high school level at the time of economic and demographic changes in demand for education beyond high school.

An associate degree typically provides wage increases of about 20 to 30% from the high school diploma, and benefits for women are even greater. On the other hand, potential employees do not have an associate degree, but have won at least one year of college credit have access to wages that are 5 to 11% higher than the salaries offered to graduating high school. In contrast, less educated workers encounter more obstacles when trying to increase their profits because they are less likely to receive training and access to technology, which both lead to increased revenue. In fact, the average increases in household income by $ 10,656 for workers with some college credit and $ ...
