This study used student departure, social network, and complexity theories to describe the higher education transfer student experience from a holistic viewpoint. The researcher conducted interviews with thirteen higher education transfer students from two- and four-year institutions located in the San Francisco Bay Area. Eight of the thirteen participants belonged to historically underrepresented ethnicity populations. The researcher asked the participants to describe and analyze their experiences and decisions during the transfer process, and influences that came from their background and from external environments. The participants perceived that they themselves had the greatest influence on their decisions to stay in higher education, but also perceived external influences. The participants relied on different people in their personal networks to achieve various levels of academic and social integration, respectively. Participants perceived great value in using technology for transfer purposes, such as electronic portfolios and social network sites, but sometimes preferred human interaction. Diversity and encouragement emerged as important themes. Social network and complexity theories enhanced and reconceptualized the concepts portrayed in Tinto&apos;s (1993) longitudinal model of student departure. Tinto&apos;s model comprised only part of a much larger fractal pattern of the overall transfer-related phase transition. New initial conditions existed every time the pattern repeated at a smaller scale over time (e.g., every year, every decision). Certain pre-entry attributes parents&apos; educational experiences and the participants&apos; prior schooling---were also phase transitions, not static historical constants. Participants sought or sought to be strange attractors---influences that could break them or others from repetitive, linear patterns. Recommendations were made for higher education transfer students and administrators at higher education institutions. Recommendations for future research included calls for further investigation of higher education transfer students who dropped out, barriers for historically underrepresented ethnicity populations, and case studies of inter-institutional programs that use electronic portfolios for transfer purposes.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/1190469" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="c07a5c29b7ad01c90637920baf9c880e" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":7369561,"asset_id":1190469,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/7369561/download_file?st=MTczNDAyMDgxMSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="93008" href="https://sfsu.academia.edu/KevinKelly">Kevin Kelly</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="93008" type="text/json">{"id":93008,"first_name":"Kevin","last_name":"Kelly","domain_name":"sfsu","page_name":"KevinKelly","display_name":"Kevin Kelly","profile_url":"https://sfsu.academia.edu/KevinKelly?f_ri=94602","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/93008/85062/92962/s65_kevin.kelly.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_1190469 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="1190469"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 1190469, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_1190469", });

This study used student departure, social network, and complexity theories to describe the higher education transfer student experience from a holistic viewpoint. The researcher conducted interviews with thirteen higher education transfer students from two- and four-year institutions located in the San Francisco Bay Area. Eight of the thirteen participants belonged to historically underrepresented ethnicity populations. The researcher asked the participants to describe and analyze their experiences and decisions during the transfer process, and influences that came from their background and from external environments. The participants perceived that they themselves had the greatest influence on their decisions to stay in higher education, but also perceived external influences.

The bioavailability,<br />distribution, sorption, and ecotoxicity of As, Cd, Se, and Sr, of the wild plants and top soils<br />in the study area were investigated. A total number of 23 surface soil samples and 23 plant<br />samples were collected and analyzed for the most toxic elements. The uptake of elements<br />by plants was dependent on the plant species and the concentration of elements in the<br />soil. For example, Sr was the highest concentration in soil samples and plants, while Se was<br />the lowest concentration in soil samples and pants. For the plants, the results showed that<br />Bellevalia sp. had the highest elements uptake, while Allium rothii had the lowest elements<br />uptake. The results of this work provide a valuable knowledge for understanding the<br />bioavailability of some toxic elements in the soil and plants of Central Jordan.
