User Experience: Pertinent Community Education Articles

So here are the four articles I found in our class time. I'm interested to see where these articles fit into our design research section for the User Experience course. It appears that across the board, most issues in community education lie in the federal funding and budget or the school district. The two most interesting articles were the second and final articles. Studying abroad is a great addition to any college curriculum, and the fact that it is racially affected is an interesting subject. The final article covered the ever-climbing costs of campus maintenance, particularly on those with old historic buildings. The campus learning environment needs to be safe and clean, but money problems are putting stress on the students, the teachers, and above all, some great historic architecture.
