Abstract | This report examines existing mathematical methods that have been utilized to develop educational enrollment estimates and analyzes the applicability of these methods in the community college setting. Models surveyed are based on (1) extrapolation--by either survival cohort or cohort-regression, (2) structural flow, and (3) Markov-type procedures. The paper then presents some of the theoretical and practical problems associated with the formulation and implementation of these models. The final chapter presents a rationale for developing enrollment estimates by institution or curriculum in community colleges. (Author) |
