    Description

    There is a gender gap in the global literacy rate. Although literacy rates have generally increased worldwide for both men and women, men are on average more literate than women. As of 2024, about 90.91 percent of men and a little less than 88.8 percent of women worldwide were literate. Adult literacy rate is defined as the percentage of people aged 15 years and above who can both read and write with understanding a short, simple statement about their everyday life. Youth literacy rate Not only does the literacy gender gap concern adults, it also exists among the world’s younger generations aged 15 to 24. Despite an overall increase in literacy, young men are still more literate than young women. In fact, the global youth literacy rate as gender parity index was 0.98 as of 2023, indicating that young women are not yet as literate as young men. Gender pay gap Gender gaps occur in many different spheres of global society. One such issue concerns salary gender gaps in professional life. Regarding the controlled gender pay gap, which measures the median salary for men and women with the same job and qualifications, women still earned less than men as of 2024. The difference was even bigger when measuring the median salary for all men and women. However, not everyone worries about gender pay gaps. According to a survey from 2021, 54 percent of the female respondents deemed the gender pay gap a real problem, compared to 45 percent of the male respondents.

    Description

    A detailed explanation of how this dataset was put together, including data sources and methodologies, follows below.Please see the "Terms of Use" section below for the Data DictionaryDATA ACQUISITION AND CLEANING PROCESSThis dataset was built from 5 separate datasets queried during the months of April and May 2023 from the Census Microdata System (link below):https://data.census.gov/mdat/#/All datasets include information on Property Value (VALP) by: Educational Attainment (SCHL), Gender (SEX), a specified race or ethnicity (RAC or HISP), and are grouped by Public Use Microdata Areas (PUMAS). PUMAS are geographic areas created by the Census bureau; they are weighted by land area and population to facilitate data analysis. Data also Included totals for the state of New Mexico, so 19 total geographies are represented. Datasets were downloaded separately by race and ethnicity because this was the only way to obtain the VALP, SCHL, and SEX variables intersectionally with race or ethnicity data. Datasets were downloaded separately by race and ethnicity because this was the only way to obtain the VALP, SCHL, and SEX variables intersectionally with race or ethnicity data. Cleaning each dataset started with recoding the SCHL and HISP variables - details on recoding can be found below.After recoding, each dataset was transposed so that PUMAS were rows and SCHL, VALP, SEX, and Race or Ethnicity variables were the columns.Median values were calculated in every case that recoding was necessary. As a result, all Property Values in this dataset reflect median values.At times the ACS data downloaded with zeros instead of the 'null' values in initial query results. The VALP variable also included a "-1" variable to reflect N/A values (details in variable notes). Both zeros and "-1" values were removed before calculating median values, both to keep the data true to the original query and to generate accurate median values.Recoding the SCHL variable resulted in 5 rows for each PUMA, reflecting the different levels of educational attainment in each region. Columns grouped variables by race or ethnicity and gender. Cell values were property values.All 5 datasets were joined after recoding and cleaning the data. Original datasets all include 95 rows with 5 separate Educational Attainment variables for each PUMA, including New Mexico State totals.Because 1 row was needed for each PUMA in order to map this data, the data was split by Educational Attainment (SCHL), resulting in 110 columns reflecting median property values for each race or ethnicity by gender and level of educational attainment.A short, unique 2 to 5 letter alias was created for each PUMA area in anticipation of needing a unique identifier to join the data with. GIS AND MAPPING PROCESSA PUMA shapefile was downloaded from the ACS site. The Shapefile can be downloaded here: https://tigerweb.geo.census.gov/arcgis/rest/services/TIGERweb/PUMA_TAD_TAZ_UGA_ZCTA/MapServerThe DBF from the PUMA shapefile was exported to Excel; this shapefile data included needed geographic information for mapping such as: GEOID, PUMACE. The UIDs created for each PUMA were added to the shapefile data; the PUMA shapfile data and ACS data were then joined on UID in JMP.The data table was joined to the shapefile in ARC GiIS, based on PUMA region (specifically GEOID text).The resulting shapefile was exported as a GDB (geodatabase) in order to keep 'Null' values in the data. GDBs are capable of including a rule allowing null values where shapefiles are not. This GDB was uploaded to NMCDCs Arc Gis platform. SYSTEMS USEDMS Excel was used for data cleaning, recoding, and deriving values. Recoding was done directly in the Microdata system when possible - but because the system is was in beta at the time of use some features were not functional at times.JMP was used to transpose, join, and split data. ARC GIS Desktop was used to create the shapefile uploaded to NMCDC's online platform. VARIABLE AND RECODING NOTESTIMEFRAME: Data was queried for the 5 year period of 2015 to 2019 because ACS changed its definiton for and methods of collecting data on race and ethinicity in 2020. The change resulted in greater aggregation and les granular data on variables from 2020 onward.Note: All Race Data reflects that respondants identified as the specified race alone or in combination with one or more other races.VARIABLE:ACS VARIABLE DEFINITIONACS VARIABLE NOTESDETAILS OR URL FOR RAW DATA DOWNLOADRACBLKBlack or African American ACS Query: RACBLK, SCHL, SEX, VALP 2019 5yrRACAIANAmerican Indian and Alaska Native ACS Query: RACAIAN, SCHL, SEX, VALP 2019 5yrRACASNAsian ACS Query: RACASN, SCHL, SEX, VALP 2019 5yrRACWHTWhite ACS Query: RACWHT, SCHL, SEX, VALP 2019 5yrHISPHispanic Origin ACS Query: HISP ORG, SCHL, SEX, VALP 2019 5yrHISP RECODE: 24 original separate variablesThe Hispanic Origin (HISP) variable originally included 24 subcategories reflecting Mexican, Central American, South American, and Caribbean Latino, and Spanish identities from each Latin American counry. 7 recoded VariablesThese 24 variables were recoded (grouped) into 7 simpler categories for data analysis: Not Spanish/Hispanic/Latino, Mexican, Caribbean Latino, Central American, South American, Spaniard, All other Spanish/Hispanic/Latino Female. Not Spanish/Hispanic/Latino was not really used in the final dataset as the race datasets provided that information.SCHLEducational Attainment25 original separate variablesThe Educational Attainment (SCHL) variable originally included 25 subcategories reflecting the education levels of adults (over 18) surveyed by the ACS. These include: Kindergarten, Grades 1 through 12 separately, 12th grade with no diploma, Highschool Diploma, GED or credential, less than 1 year of college, more than 1 year of college with no degree, Associate's Degree, Bachelor's Degree, Master's Degree, Professional Degree, and Doctorate Degree.SCHL RECODE: 5 recoded variablesThese 25 variables were recoded (grouped) into 5 simpler categories for data analysis: No High School Diploma, High School Diploma or GED, Some College, Bachelor's Degree, and Advanced or Professional DegreeSEXGender2 variables1 - Male, 2 - FemaleVALPProperty Value1 variableValues were rounded and top-coded by ACS for anonymity. The "-1" variable is defined as N/A (GQ/ Vacant lots except 'for sale only' and 'sold, not occupied' / not owned or being bought.) This variable reflects the median value of property owned by individuals of each race, ethnicity, gender, and educational attainment category.PUMAPublic Use Microdata Area18 PUMAsPUMAs in New Mexico can be viewed here:https://nmcdc.maps.arcgis.com/apps/mapviewer/index.html?webmap=d9fed35f558948ea9051efe9aa529eafData includes 19 total regions: 18 Pumas and NM State TotalsNOTES AND RESOURCESThe following resources and documentation were used to navigate the ACS PUMS system and to answer questions about variables:Census Microdata API User Guide:https://www.census.gov/data/developers/guidance/microdata-api-user-guide.Additional_Concepts.html#list-tab-1433961450Accessing PUMS Data:https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/microdata/access.htmlHow to use PUMS on data.census.govhttps://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/microdata/mdat.html2019 PUMS Documentation:https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/microdata/documentation.2019.html#list-tab-13709392012014 to 2018 ACS PUMS Data Dictionary:https://www2.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/tech_docs/pums/data_dict/PUMS_Data_Dictionary_2014-2018.pdf2019 PUMS Tiger/Line Shapefileshttps://www.census.gov/cgi-bin/geo/shapefiles/index.php?year=2019&layergroup=Public+Use+Microdata+Areas Note 1: NMCDC attemepted to contact analysts with the ACS system to clarify questions about variables, but did not receive a timely response. Documentation was then consulted.Note 2: All relevant documentation was reviewed and seems to imply that all survey questions were answered by adults, age 18 or over. Youth who have inherited property could potentially be reflected in this data.Dataset and feature service created in May 2023 by Renee Haley, Data Specialist, NMCDC.

    Description

    The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) is a continuing survey of the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of young Americans. Each year during the period 1970-1980, 75,000 to 100,000 persons were assessed in the following learning areas: reading, reading/literature, mathematics, science, and citizenship/social studies. Data are presented for 9-year-olds, 13-year-olds, and 17-year-olds for the academic years 1970-1971, 1972-1973 to 1977-1978, and 1979-1980, in the form of "Booklet" files. At the school level, background variables include the region, census division, type and size of community, occupation mix of attendance area, grade range, racial composition, total enrollment, and Title I eligibility. At the respondent level, items cover age, sex, race, parents' education, and reading materials in the home. From the school year 1972-1973 on, regional migration variables are included for the older age groups. From 1975-1976 on, 17-year-olds were asked a number of additional background questions, including their homework and TV viewing habits, languages spoken in the home, racial/ethnic heritage, and household possessions.

    College Completion Dataset

    Graduation Rates, Race, Efficiency Measures and More

    By Jonathan Ortiz [source]

    About this dataset

    This College Completion dataset provides an invaluable insight into the success and progress of college students in the United States. It contains graduation rates, race and other data to offer a comprehensive view of college completion in America. The data is sourced from two primary sources – the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES)’ Integrated Postsecondary Education System (IPEDS) and Voluntary System of Accountability’s Student Success and Progress rate.

    At four-year institutions, the graduation figures come from IPEDS for first-time, full-time degree seeking students at the undergraduate level, who entered college six years earlier at four-year institutions or three years earlier at two-year institutions. Furthermore, colleges report how many students completed their program within 100 percent and 150 percent of normal time which corresponds with graduation within four years or six year respectively. Students reported as being of two or more races are included in totals but not shown separately

    When analyzing race and ethnicity data NCES have classified student demographics since 2009 into seven categories; White non-Hispanic; Black non Hispanic; American Indian/ Alaskan native ; Asian/ Pacific Islander ; Unknown race or ethnicity ; Non resident with two new categorize Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander combined with Asian plus students belonging to several races. Also worth noting is that different classifications for graduate data stemming from 2008 could be due to variations in time frame examined & groupings used by particular colleges – those who can’t be identified from National Student Clearinghouse records won’t be subjected to penalty by these locations .

    When it comes down to efficiency measures parameters like “Awards per 100 Full Time Undergraduate Students which includes all undergraduate completions reported by a particular institution including associate degrees & certificates less than 4 year programme will assist us here while we also take into consideration measures like expenditure categories , Pell grant percentage , endowment values , average student aid amounts & full time faculty members contributing outstandingly towards instructional research / public service initiatives .

    When trying to quantify outcomes back up Median Estimated SAT score metric helps us when it is derived either on 25th percentile basis / 75th percentile basis with all these factors further qualified by identifying required criteria meeting 90% threshold when incoming students are considered for relevance . Last but not least , Average Student Aid equalizes amount granted by institution dividing same over total sum received against what was allotted that particular year .

    All this analysis gives an opportunity get a holistic overview about performance , potential deficits &

    How to use the dataset

    This dataset contains data on student success, graduation rates, race and gender demographics, an efficiency measure to compare colleges across states and more. It is a great source of information to help you better understand college completion and student success in the United States.

    In this guide we’ll explain how to use the data so that you can find out the best colleges for students with certain characteristics or focus on your target completion rate. We’ll also provide some useful tips for getting the most out of this dataset when seeking guidance on which institutions offer the highest graduation rates or have a good reputation for success in terms of completing programs within normal timeframes.

    Before getting into specifics about interpreting this dataset, it is important that you understand that each row represents information about a particular institution – such as its state affiliation, level (two-year vs four-year), control (public vs private), name and website. Each column contains various demographic information such as rate of awarding degrees compared to other institutions in its sector; race/ethnicity Makeup; full-time faculty percentage; median SAT score among first-time students; awards/grants comparison versus national average/state average - all applicable depending on institution location — and more!

    When using this dataset, our suggestion is that you begin by forming a hypothesis or research question concerning student completion at a given school based upon observable characteristics like financ...

    Description

    This layer shows education level for adults (25+) by race by sex. This is shown by tract, county, and state centroids. This service is updated annually to contain the most currently released American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year data, and contains estimates and margins of error. There are also additional calculated attributes related to this topic, which can be mapped or used within analysis. This layer is symbolized to show the count and percent of adults age 25+ who have a bachelor's degree or higher as their highest education level. To see the full list of attributes available in this service, go to the "Data" tab, and choose "Fields" at the top right. Current Vintage: 2019-2023ACS Table(s): B15002, C15002B, C15002C, C15002D, C15002E, C15002F, C15002G, C15002H, C15002I (Not all lines of these ACS tables are available in this layer.)Data downloaded from: Census Bureau's API for American Community Survey Date of API call: December 12, 2024National Figures: data.census.govThe United States Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS):About the SurveyGeography & ACSTechnical DocumentationNews & UpdatesThis ready-to-use layer can be used within ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online, its configurable apps, dashboards, Story Maps, custom apps, and mobile apps. Data can also be exported for offline workflows. For more information about ACS layers, visit the FAQ. Please cite the Census and ACS when using this data.Data Note from the Census:Data are based on a sample and are subject to sampling variability. The degree of uncertainty for an estimate arising from sampling variability is represented through the use of a margin of error. The value shown here is the 90 percent margin of error. The margin of error can be interpreted as providing a 90 percent probability that the interval defined by the estimate minus the margin of error and the estimate plus the margin of error (the lower and upper confidence bounds) contains the true value. In addition to sampling variability, the ACS estimates are subject to nonsampling error (for a discussion of nonsampling variability, see Accuracy of the Data). The effect of nonsampling error is not represented in these tables.Data Processing Notes:This layer is updated automatically when the most current vintage of ACS data is released each year, usually in December. The layer always contains the latest available ACS 5-year estimates. It is updated annually within days of the Census Bureau's release schedule. Click here to learn more about ACS data releases.Boundaries come from the US Census TIGER geodatabases, specifically, the National Sub-State Geography Database (named tlgdb_(year)_a_us_substategeo.gdb). Boundaries are updated at the same time as the data updates (annually), and the boundary vintage appropriately matches the data vintage as specified by the Census. These are Census boundaries with water and/or coastlines erased for cartographic and mapping purposes. For census tracts, the water cutouts are derived from a subset of the 2020 Areal Hydrography boundaries offered by TIGER. Water bodies and rivers which are 50 million square meters or larger (mid to large sized water bodies) are erased from the tract level boundaries, as well as additional important features. For state and county boundaries, the water and coastlines are derived from the coastlines of the 2020 500k TIGER Cartographic Boundary Shapefiles. These are erased to more accurately portray the coastlines and Great Lakes. The original AWATER and ALAND fields are still available as attributes within the data table (units are square meters). The States layer contains 52 records - all US states, Washington D.C., and Puerto RicoCensus tracts with no population that occur in areas of water, such as oceans, are removed from this data service (Census Tracts beginning with 99).Percentages and derived counts, and associated margins of error, are calculated values (that can be identified by the "_calc_" stub in the field name), and abide by the specifications defined by the American Community Survey.Field alias names were created based on the Table Shells file available from the American Community Survey Summary File Documentation page.Negative values (e.g., -4444...) have been set to null, with the exception of -5555... which has been set to zero. These negative values exist in the raw API data to indicate the following situations:The margin of error column indicates that either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute a standard error and thus the margin of error. A statistical test is not appropriate.Either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute an estimate, or a ratio of medians cannot be calculated because one or both of the median estimates falls in the lowest interval or upper interval of an open-ended distribution.The median falls in the lowest interval of an open-ended distribution, or in the upper interval of an open-ended distribution.
