Ethnographic and Qualitative Research Conference Presentation given on 2/5/2014. This presentation outlines my study done on second-year students using crystallization.
This document summarizes information about a Title I public high school with 3,700 students and 400 teachers/staff. It describes the student demographics, including 50% coming from low-income households. It then discusses the School Within a School (SWS) program created to help students who were not meeting expectations, but notes this program began to face challenges over time as teacher accountability decreased. The document argues school leaders did not follow best practices for leading lasting organizational change and instead imposed changes without addressing root causes or gaining teacher support, resulting in resistance to successive change efforts.
Symposium G: Academic teaching identity by Professor Paul Gibbs, Dr Agi Ryder...mdxaltc
This study investigated the development of academic teaching identity among participants in a Postgraduate Certificate in Higher Education (PG Cert HE) program. Interviews and reflective writings from 22 academics explored how teaching identity emerges from prior experiences as students and scholars in their disciplines, as well as influences from colleagues, course theory, and critical teaching incidents. Preliminary findings suggest identity develops fluidly through social interactions and encompasses both individual and shared aspects. Effective support may require helping academics tolerate ambiguity, build communities of practice, and explore cultural influences on identity formation.
Mentoring Students in Aging Research - Dr. Dan Durkinemergeuwf
This activity utilizes a mentoring model to work with students to develop a research project for presentation at the Southeastern Student Mentoring Conference in Gerontology and Geriatrics. The conference is an annual event that takes place in late March or early April.
This document outlines the many roles and responsibilities of academic advisors. It discusses advisors serving as guides to help students with curriculum, career planning, policies and procedures, personal issues, and referrals. It also emphasizes the importance of advisors understanding students' needs, maintaining confidentiality, monitoring progress, and developing rapport to effectively support student learning and development.
This document discusses supporting disciplinary literacy and inquiry in the classroom. It defines disciplinary literacy as using reading, reasoning, investigating, speaking and writing required to learn complex content knowledge in a particular discipline. Project-Based Inquiry (PBI) Global is presented as a way to engage students in the disciplines through a 5 step process: asking compelling questions, gathering and analyzing sources, synthesizing claims and evidence, critically evaluating and revising work, and sharing findings. The document provides examples of how teachers can incorporate more student choice and voice into inquiry projects to support disciplinary literacy.
Citizenship Education for a Sustainable Futureemergeuwf
The citizen science initiative (CSI) is designed to provide service learning experiences to students participating in the STEM elementary education program during their science (SCE4310) and social studies (SSE4113) courses. Both courses highlight teaching social justice issues such as socio-scientific issues, citizen science, and environmental stewardship. Through weekly service learning opportunities, students will observe, learn, practice, and reflect on teaching social justice issues.
Emerge Initiative Faculty/Student Research Presentationemergeuwf
The document describes an initiative called EMERGE that promotes high-impact educational practices like faculty-undergraduate student research. It provides details of a research project conducted by an undergraduate student Claire Caillouet, mentored by Karla Caillouet and Dr. Bridges. Claire examined the relationship between linguistic isolation, overweight, and physical inactivity among Florida adolescents. She progressed through the research process, receiving feedback. Her performance was assessed using a rubric addressing critical thinking and communication skills, fulfilling two program student learning outcomes. Claire presented her findings at multiple conferences, benefiting her learning and self-esteem.

This document discusses the evolving roles of faculty at different types of institutions. It provides details on the roles and responsibilities of faculty at large research universities, community colleges, and California State University, Monterey Bay. It addresses factors like teaching, research, service expectations, governance structures, and challenges to changing institutional culture.
This document outlines various strategies for increasing faculty engagement in academic community engagement at institutions of higher education. These strategies include offering faculty mini-grants and professional development opportunities focused on civic engagement pedagogy. Additional strategies involve facilitating faculty learning circles, developing multi-course civic engagement sequences, and creating civic engagement certificate or minor programs. The document also discusses ways students and institutions can engage faculty, such as through student-driven independent research projects or making civic engagement a priority in tenure and promotion guidelines. The overarching goal of these strategies is to more deeply integrate civic engagement throughout institutions on a curricular level and recognize such work in faculty roles and responsibilities.
Designing Effective and Measurable Student Learning OutcomesBonner Foundation
This document discusses designing effective and measurable student learning outcomes. It begins with an overview of the goals for the workshop, which are to help participants determine what needs to be assessed, why, and how outcomes translate to assessments. It then covers various topics around developing outcomes such as getting input from participants on their confidence levels, why outcomes and assessment are important, the importance of asking good questions, rigor in research, and using reflective practice. Key terms are defined and the document emphasizes starting with outcomes in mind and providing a process for developing outcomes that was used at IUPUI.
This document discusses common misconceptions about English language learner (ELL) dropouts and presents information on the realities and causes of high ELL dropout rates. It explores how a lack of uniform data reporting and inconsistencies in identifying ELL graduates skews national statistics. Major causes of ELL dropouts include low social capital, lack of stability, high-stakes testing pressures, and lack of student engagement. The document proposes solutions such as bilingual education, alternative schools, testing students in their native language, and school outreach programs to improve stability and engagement for at-risk ELL students.
Information Literacy Instruction and the First Year Experiencecarolrain
The document discusses information literacy instruction as part of first-year experience programs. It notes that about 85% of colleges and universities now have some type of first-year experience program that aims to help ease students' transition to college life. These programs often include a library component to help students learn about resources and how to conduct research. The document outlines some common approaches to including information literacy instruction, such as orientations, tutorials, and integrating it into first-year writing courses. It also discusses challenges of including library instruction in already full first-year programs and the benefits to students.
This document discusses professional development for teachers working with low-achieving students under No Child Left Behind. It notes that professional development should be high-quality, ongoing, across grade levels, teacher-generated, aligned with school goals, and research-based. It provides criteria for these characteristics and resources on research-based professional development practices and the requirements of NCLB.
An e-learning facilitator fulfills four key roles: coordinator, content manager, community builder, and computer consultant. As a coordinator, they plan courses, track participation, and accommodate learners' needs. As a content manager, they guide discussion and focus on essential concepts. As a community builder, they foster collaboration and bring out multiple perspectives. As a computer consultant, they help with technical issues and promote learner independence. Overall, an effective facilitator balances all four roles to create a supportive online learning environment.

Gender and Race in Leadership Preparation: A Constrained DiscourseSandra Conway
This study examined perceptions of discourse around gender and race in educational leadership programs. It found that faculty tended to minimize discussions of feminist and multi-ethnic perspectives. While the number of women and minorities in school leadership has increased, power dynamics have not sufficiently changed. There are "fault lines" between the realities of gender and race in schools and how programs prepare future administrators to address related issues. More work is needed to incorporate culturally diverse topics and encourage research on equity and social justice in leadership.
Re-Imagining the Place of ESL in the Community Collegeystone
The document discusses the ESL program at Holyoke Community College and a research project examining how prepared faculty and staff feel in working with English language learners (ELLs). The research found that many faculty feel unprepared and unaware of support services available for ELLs. It recommends that the entire college collaborate to support ELLs, including providing training to faculty on issues related to second language acquisition. The ESL program aims to strengthen collaboration between academic departments and reposition itself as a conduit for diversity across the college.

The overall goal is to discuss strengthening collaboration and resources across the participating organizations.
This study examined the relationships between engineering students' attendance, participation, and performance in an Engineering Statics course at the University of Technology, Jamaica. The results showed positive and significant relationships between attendance and participation, attendance and performance, and participation and performance. Students who attended and participated more had better overall performance. The researchers recommend mandatory attendance policies and scheduled quizzes to increase attendance and improve student performance.
This document describes a bridge program created by Western Oregon University's College of Education to support new teachers as they transition from pre-service to in-service educators. It outlines challenges like high teacher attrition rates, discusses strategies like mentoring and communities of practice, and presents preliminary positive findings from the program's first meeting and surveys, including that participants found value in a non-evaluative community, additional professional development, and opportunities for reflection and action.
The document discusses ways to improve school literacy through collaboration. It recommends creating a literacy committee composed of teachers, administrators, parents and community members to oversee a comprehensive literacy program. Research shows the importance of involving families, communicating, volunteering, learning at home, decision-making and community collaboration. A sample kindergarten lesson plan on pumpkins incorporates reading, writing, exploration and technology to engage students and assess learning. The conclusion emphasizes that student success relies on a coordinated school-wide literacy program and team approach.

Introduction
Opening Statement
The students and parents are participants in an educational program. “Research often excludes youth participants, omitting their social and psychological realities, undermining their rights to participate and benefit from research, and weakening the validity of research. Researchers may be discouraged from including youth due to logistical (e.g. gaining access) or ethical (e.g. coercion risks based on developmental level) concerns. Increased discussion is needed around appropriate methods to use with child and youth participants that manage challenges related to developmental capacities, legal status, power differentials, and unpredictable aspects of qualitative research”(Sage, 2015). Eliminate the white pages.
Background Study
In this paper I will focus on experiences of researchers, describing solutions of internal and external validity. “The research design is the blueprint that enables the investigator to come up with solutions to these problems and guides him or her to various stages of research” (Frankfort-Nachmias & Nachmias, 2008, p89) Internal validity is whether the effects observed in a research are due to the manipulation of the independent variable. External validity is the extent to which the results of a research can be generalized to settings and people. (McLeod, 2013).
Burger’s (2009) study of design is on the psychological research designed by Milgram. Burger (2009) identifies obedience to authority, increase in demands, resources of information in a novel situation, and responsibility not assigned or diffused as contributes toward the “high rates of obedience” (Burger, 2009, pp 2-3). His hypotheses question is ‘Would people still obey today?’ The tables are used to measure participants of the obedience screening according to gender and ethnicity, such as behavior and personality rates.
Fuchs, Fuchs, Hamlett, Phillips, Karns, and Dutka (1997) researched on various collaborative measurements. The appendix for Problems A & B is interesting. The methods to problems solving contain internal and external validity. This is a collaborative research because the tutor (educator) and tutee (learner) are doing an activity.
Problem Statement
The problem occurs when there is a lack of part.
Dr. Dennis Pruitt, vice president for student affairs, vice provost and dean of students, shared an overview of trends and issues at the Sept. 9, 2016 meeting of the Division of Student Affairs and Academic Support.
Peer mentoring and peer learning programs have been shown to be effective for undergraduate students in several ways. They help students transition to university life and develop a sense of identity as part of the academic community. Mentoring also helps students cope with academic demands and supports their career, leadership, and academic development. Peer-led sessions create opportunities for collaborative learning and building confidence. Universities have increasingly diverse students with a variety of learning challenges, and peer-to-peer approaches can help address these challenges through engagement and multiple learning strategies. The effectiveness of peer mentoring stems from enhancing social and contextual learning relationships, providing feedback, and occupying a supportive third space for dialogue.
This document outlines recommendations for effectively advising millennial students based on Chickering and Gamson's seven principles of good undergraduate education. It discusses the background of millennial students and their characteristics. The seven principles are contact between students and faculty, cooperation among students, active learning, prompt feedback, time management skills, high expectations, and accommodating different ways of learning. Specific recommendations are provided for advisors to establish early contact with students, encourage collaboration and discussion, provide active learning opportunities, give regular feedback, help students develop time management, set clear academic expectations, and respect diverse talents.
This document provides an overview of school-based mentoring (SBM) programs and compares them to traditional community-based mentoring programs. Some key points:
- SBM is now the most common form of formal youth mentoring in the US, surpassing community-based programs. However, research on SBM's effectiveness is still developing.
- SBM and community-based programs have different strengths and limitations due to operating in school versus community settings. SBM allows for peer interactions but limits meeting time and activities.
- Research shows SBM benefits youth's peer relationships and school outcomes. Program practices like meeting frequency may impact benefits.
- Costs are similar at around $1,000
The document summarizes research on school-based mentoring programs. Some key findings:
1) School-based mentoring is growing rapidly but research has not kept pace to determine best practices. Recent studies show benefits, primarily in school performance, attitudes, and behaviors as well as peer relationships.
2) School-based mentoring differs from community-based mentoring in that matches occur in school and have less time together due to class schedules. However, it can reach more at-risk youth.
3) Two major studies found modest improvements in school outcomes like performance and behavior, but effects were small and not sustained after mentoring ended. Benefits were primarily for elementary boys and high school girls.

The document summarizes research on school-based mentoring programs. Some key findings:
1) School-based mentoring is now the most common form of formal youth mentoring in the US. However, its growth has outpaced research on its effectiveness.
2) Recent rigorous studies show that school-based mentoring provides modest benefits to participating youth, primarily in school performance, attitudes, and behaviors, as well as peer relationships. However, these benefits often do not persist once mentoring ends.
3) Certain groups, such as elementary school boys and high school girls, may benefit most from school-based mentoring programs. More research is still needed to understand how to maximize benefits for all youth
This document discusses the need for a pan-Canadian e-learning research agenda. It notes that while many research opportunities and questions exist, there have been no systematic efforts to define or address issues through research. Developing an agenda could catalyze action, create a shared community, focus ideas, provide direction, allow for collaboration, and attract funding. The document reviews different approaches to developing an agenda and barriers to e-learning research. It argues that an integrated, pan-Canadian agenda is needed to energize the research community and ensure discovery and adoption of innovations.
This summary provides an overview of a study on improving teaching presence in virtual classrooms:
1. The study examined the three presences (social, cognitive, and teaching) that make up the Community of Inquiry model in blended and online courses. It specifically looked at how teaching presence relates to student satisfaction and instructor interaction.
2. A survey based on the Community of Inquiry instrument was administered to students to collect data on the three presences and how they may relate to demographics and differ between online and blended courses.
3. Preliminary results found the survey to have excellent reliability. Factor analysis also supported the validity of the three presences as distinct constructs.

INTRODUCTION
Module 3 Week 6: The Purpose Statement
In this course, you have learned that a final problem statement normally takes many months to develop. Yet this week, you are asked to begin to develop the purpose statement. This is not because your problem statement is finalized but because it is time for you to evaluate and practice creating the rest of the common components of the doctoral capstone. This is part of the iterative process of preparing the capstone.
Remember, though, that the assignments in this course are unlikely to be final versions of your study. The intention is to help you to understand and prepare for what you will need to write in your capstone.
The purpose statement serves as the connection between the problem being addressed and the focus of the study. Depending on the methodology, in:
· Quantitative studies, state what needs to be studied by describing two or more factors (variables) and a conjectured relationship between (among) them related to the identified gap in practice or problem;
· Qualitative studies, describe the need for increased understanding about the issue to be studied (based on the identified gap or problem); and
· Mixed-methods studies (with both quantitative and qualitative aspects), clarify how the two approaches will be used together to inform the study.
Notes on Readings
This week’s readings continue to provide information on how to review the research literature. Apply this guidance to your ongoing efforts to read and take notes interactively in the research relevant to your problem. The media and other resources, this week, will help you to develop your understanding of the purpose statement.
The reading in the Single text, this week, can help you to fine tune your system for scholarly reading and note taking via the use of your citation management software.
This week, Thomas provides detailed instructions about how to interact with, and review, the research literature. These skills are critical in your work on your doctorate.
Learning Objectives
Students will:
· Apply technological tools to find, analyze, and evaluate existing research
· Analyze purpose statements
· Apply knowledge of APA references

Stephen King, who has written more than 50 novels—and other books that have sold hundreds of millions of copies—also wrote about how he writes. In his book, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft, King explains that his iterative approach to writing involves writing, putting it aside, writing something else, and then returning to the first draft.
While it is unlikely you will adopt Stephen King’s ritual for draft versions, recognize that “writing drafts” are an essential part of the process. This week’s writing assignment allows you to present an improved and refined problem statement and an aligned purpose statement.

The document discusses strategies for strengthening a struggling Greek community on a midwestern campus. It outlines creating partnerships and alliances, developing standards of excellence based on values, creating a strategic plan through community input and data analysis, and implementing initiatives to increase recruitment, retention, and alumni support. Goals include chartering new chapters, increasing membership by 45%, and developing a new mission and vision.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

2. Second-year
students = Unique set of
challenges (Gahagan and Hunter, 2006)
More integrated than first-year
Many still lack a college identity
Reasons
Retention, lack of support
Unique
Features of Bartley
Professional focus, proprietary institution
to study Second-Year Students
Fast pace, ten-week quarters, no on-campus housing
High Attrition Rate
2
3.
Key to success is involved students
Chickering and Reisser (1993); Tinto (1993); Astin
(1993); Kuh, Schuh, Whitt & Associates (1991)
Sophomore Slump: Lemons and Richmond (1987)
SYE Programming
Must build off first-year; Campus-wide collaboration
3
4. Two
Seminal Second-Year Works: Pattengale
and Schreiner, (2000); Hunter et al. (2009)
Lack
of SYE research on professional focus,
commuter schools.
Gaps
There is a need for more qualitative studies.
in Research
Only one interview based study, Schaller (2005)
Many quantitative, mixed methods, or reflective
pieces.
4
5. Longitudinal,
The case should be a functioning, bounded
system (Stake, 1994).
Sample: 11 second-year students; Data Collection:
Interviews, focus groups, blog, and self-reflection
Theoretical
Framework
Chickering and Reisser’s (1993) revised seven
vectors of student development.
Integrative
intrinsic case study:
Crystallization:
Provides multiple ways of understanding
participants’ experiences (Ellingson, 2009).
Student narratives, researcher’s reflections, poetry
5
6. There is are two research questions for this study:
What
do second-year students at a
professional focus, commuter school need to
increase their involvement?
Do
students at Bartley move through the
same stages of student development as
Chickering and Reisser (1993) suggest
students do at a four-year school?
6
7. Bartley’s
Structure
Non-Traditional Campus; Fragmentation of Majors;
For-Profit Business Model
Teaching
and Learning
Novice to Intermediate; Prioritizing; Faculty and
Department Chairs; Mentoring
Professional
Development
Motivation for Joining Clubs;
Internships, Freelancing, and Conventions; Portfolios
7
8. Community
and Involvement
Structure Leads to Lack of Involvement; Purposeful
Programming; Increasing Communication and
Networking; Building Camaraderie and Pride
Resources
and Support
Academic Resources; Computer and Specialty Labs;
Outdated Equipment; Business Side of Bartley
8
10. A
support structure should be developed
using four common ideas:
Purposeful Programming
Increased Transparency
Town Hall Meetings
Communication is crucial to increase community
Mentoring
Programming should use the four vectors
Events for veteran, adult, and commuter students
Faculty and peer mentoring
Second-year advisors for individualized support
E-Portfolio Community
Develop student ownership through reflective
practices
10
11. Three
One Institution: Not generalizable
Nature of the case study to focus on one case
Crystallization
Main Limitations
Must take care to not be seen as inconsistent or
contradictory
Bias
Reflections help to gain insight into prejudices
Further
Research
More large-scale second-year studies on:
Proprietary, online, and commuter institutions
Veteran, adult, and commuter students
11
12. Bartley
students—divergent from the lit
Gahagan and Hunter’s (2006) definition of second-year
students is problematic of Bartley population
Commuter students, veteran students, and adult
students have specific programmatic needs and their
needs to be more research on these populations
Bartley second-year students are truly the middle child
Institution
specific, purposeful programming
is needed to develop the whole student
Chickering’s seven vectors should be seen as
fluid and should be used to help develop
programming and SYE support
