More specifically, the transition from school to higher education and the labour market is often a difficult hurdle for many students. Almost half of students do not succeed in the first year and often withdraw from education, students are faced with a variety of contexts and may choose to study in a different (international) context, and they are often confronted with structural barriers in finding a (high-quality) job, as evidenced by increasing levels of youth unemployment and underemployment. 'Higher Education Transitions' aims to deepen our understanding of the transitions taking place when students enter, progress and leave higher education to enter the labour market. Drawing on an international team of contributors, this guide examines fifteen empirical studies which include a range of quantitative, qualitative, cross-sectional and longitudinal studies. Divided into three sections to reflect each important transition phase, topics include: transitions from secondary to higher education; transitions within higher education; transitions from higher education to the labour market. By considering transitions across different phases as a broad and interrelated process, this guide will be essential reading for higher education researchers, policy stakeholders and all those interested in the transitions into higher education and the labour market. 650 0 $a Children's literature $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Picture books for children $x History. 650 0 $a Children $x Books and reading. 650 0 $a Narrative art. 650 0 $a Graphic novels $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Illustrated books $x History. 650 0 $a Illustration of books. 650 0 $a Young adult literature $x History and criticism. 700 1 $a Hamer, Naomi, $e editor. 700 1 $a Nodelman, Perry, $e editor. 700 1 $a Reimer, Mavis, $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t More words about pictures. $d New York : Routledge, 2017 $z 9781315621814 $w (DLC) 2017009937 830 0 $a Children's literature and culture. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180109060122.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5EC491F6F50C11E7A6193F6E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
