Philosophizing With Children’S Literature: A Response To Turgeon And Wartenberg, Darren Chetty, Maughn Rollins Gregory, Megan Jane Laverty
Philosophizing With Children’S Literature: A Response To Turgeon And Wartenberg, Darren Chetty, Maughn Rollins Gregory, Megan Jane Laverty
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
Introduction: With the maturation of a field comes the opportunity and the responsibility to reflect on its sources, its areas and directions of development, debates among its proponents, and critiques originating from inside and outside the field. While early proponents of philosophy for children supported each other in the face of misunderstanding and misapprehension, differences inevitably arose among them, not only concerning materials and methods, but also concerning the very meanings of philosophy, childhood and education. These differences remain among contemporary scholars, educators and practitioners, who continue to engage in robust debates about how to research and practice philosophy with …
The Story Circle As A Practice Of Democratic, Critical Inquiry, Natalie M. Fletcher, Maughn Rollins Gregory, Peter Shea, Ariel Sykes
The Story Circle As A Practice Of Democratic, Critical Inquiry, Natalie M. Fletcher, Maughn Rollins Gregory, Peter Shea, Ariel Sykes
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
The authors of this essay have been committed practitioners and teachers of Philosophy for Children in a variety of educational settings, from pre-schools through university doctoral programs and in adult community and religious education programs. The promotion of critical thinking has always been a primary goal of this movement. But communal practices of critical thinking need to include other kinds of democratic conversation that prompt us to see others as full-fledged persons and to be curious about how our being in community with them makes growth and self-correction possible. As we continue to experiment and innovate in new contexts we …
Their American Dream, Danne Davis
Their American Dream, Danne Davis
Department of Teaching and Learning Scholarship and Creative Works
Centuries before W.E.B. DuBois named the colorline—i.e., racism—as the problem of the 20th century, skin color stratification was a persistent phenomenon. In 1983 Black feminist, scholar, and Pulitzer Prize winning author Alice Walker termed “colorism” as “prejudicial or preferential treatment of same-race people based solely on their [skin] color”. Using the tools of genealogy, I conducted a critical family history of my parents, Lem and Mae’s, pursuit of their American Dream. Such exploration digs deep to decipher the nexuses of a family’s evolution. Dr. Maya Angelou routinely shared stories about her past to impart the importance of embracing one’s history. …

A disproportionate number of urban youth attend underresourced and segregated schools. While tenets of the American Dream are inculcated in urban youth, a dearth of educational resources is available to help realize this dream. This qualitative study explored the narratives of urban youth (N = 85), many of whom sought to be the exceptions, embracing higher education as a pathway to successful futures, yet few identified resources that would make access to higher education possible. The capital accrued in their communities allowed them to navigate their social environment; however, it was an insufficient bridge for future success in higher education. …
Literacy Teachers’ Beliefs About Data Use At The Bookends Of Elementary School, Nicole Barnes, Catherine M. Brighton, Helenrose Fives, Tonya R. Moon
Literacy Teachers’ Beliefs About Data Use At The Bookends Of Elementary School, Nicole Barnes, Catherine M. Brighton, Helenrose Fives, Tonya R. Moon
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
The purpose of this investigation was to explore elementary teachers’ beliefs about data and data use. Archived data from 2 research projects were used to address the following research questions: What are kindergarten and fifth-grade literacy teachers’ beliefs about data and data use? What functions do the beliefs serve in teachers’ actual use of data? Using a multicase study approach, 2 research teams carried out qualitative data analysis. Findings revealed that kindergarten and fifth-grade teachers held similar “macro” beliefs, and these beliefs were shaped and contextualized in response to their settings. The study’s implications suggest that teachers’ beliefs about data …
The Impact Of Neoliberal School Choice Reforms On Students With Disabilities: Perspectives From New York City, Jessica Bacon
The Impact Of Neoliberal School Choice Reforms On Students With Disabilities: Perspectives From New York City, Jessica Bacon
Department of Teaching and Learning Scholarship and Creative Works
This disability studies in education informed study unpacks effects of neoliberal reforms on students with disabilities in New York City schools. These reforms proliferated small themed schools, dismantled many large schools, and required students to apply to high school. This multi-site case study researched two high schools, one large and one small, with data from interviews and document review. Findings reveal how reforms forced large schools to accept many marginalized students with disabilities, while small schools employed tactics to avoid accepting many students with disabilities seen as having intensive needs. Finally, contextual analysis reveals how larger city politics perpetuated segregative …
On The Relevance Of Cognitive Neuroscience For Community Of Inquiry, Mark Weinstein, Dan Fisherman
On The Relevance Of Cognitive Neuroscience For Community Of Inquiry, Mark Weinstein, Dan Fisherman
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
Community of inquiry is most often seen as a dialogical procedure for the cooperative development of reasonable approaches to knowledge and meaning. This reflects a deep commitment to normatively based reasoning that is pervasive in a wide range of approaches to critical thinking and argument, where the underlying theory of reasoning is logic driven, whether formal or informal. The commitment to normative reasoning is deeply historical reflecting the fundamental distinction between reason and emotion. Despite the deep roots of the distinction and its canonization in current educational thought contemporary cognitive neuroscience presents a fundamental challenge to the viability of the …
The Impact Of Surface Cleaning Restoration Of Paintings On Observers' Eye Fixation Patterns And Artworks' Pictorial Qualities, Paul J. Locher, Pablo Tinio, Elizabeth A. Krupinski
The Impact Of Surface Cleaning Restoration Of Paintings On Observers' Eye Fixation Patterns And Artworks' Pictorial Qualities, Paul J. Locher, Pablo Tinio, Elizabeth A. Krupinski
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
Surface cleaning is a restoration process that involves the removal of dirt, grime, and discolored varnish from a damaged painting's surface film, thereby presumably enhancing the visual clarity of its pictorial features and aesthetic effects. However, whether surface restoration really has these desired effects is an open question addressed in the present research. We report results of 2 studies, the first of which examined participants' visual exploration (scanpath) using eye tracking of 10 prerestored paintings and their postrestored counterparts. Participants in both studies rated the paintings on items of the Information Rate Scale, a measure of a painting's physical, structural, …
How Relationship Status And Sociosexual Orientation Influence The Link Between Facial Attractiveness And Visual Attention, Aleksandra Mitrovic, Juergen Goller, Pablo Tinio, Helmut Leder
How Relationship Status And Sociosexual Orientation Influence The Link Between Facial Attractiveness And Visual Attention, Aleksandra Mitrovic, Juergen Goller, Pablo Tinio, Helmut Leder
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
Facial attractiveness captures and binds visual attention, thus affecting visual exploration of our environment. It is often argued that this effect on attention has evolutionary functions related to mating. Although plausible, such perspectives have been challenged by recent behavioral and eye-tracking studies, which have shown that the effect on attention is moderated by various sex- and goal-related variables such as sexual orientation. In the present study, we examined how relationship status and sociosexual orientation moderate the link between attractiveness and visual attention. We hypothesized that attractiveness leads to longer looks and that being single as well as being more sociosexually …
A Person-Centered Approach To Understanding Teachers' Classroom Practices And Perceived School Goal Structures, Nicole Barnes, Helenrose Fives, Jamaal Matthews, Kit Marie Saizdelamora
A Person-Centered Approach To Understanding Teachers' Classroom Practices And Perceived School Goal Structures, Nicole Barnes, Helenrose Fives, Jamaal Matthews, Kit Marie Saizdelamora
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
We examined 179 teachers' perceptions of their own classroom practices and their school's motivational climate to illuminate the ways these perceptions work in concert. Using teachers' responses to two scales of the Patterns of Adaptive Learning Survey, a cluster analysis revealed three profiles of teachers described as cluster 1: Aligned: Performance Moderate, Mastery High: We agree with everything!; cluster 2: Aligned: Performance Low, Mastery High: Yea to Mastery! Nay to Performance!; and cluster 3: Unaligned: Classroom Mastery with School Performance: We're Mastery Structured in a Performance School. Cluster analyses revealed significant differences suggesting these teacher groups had distinct profiles. This …

Black And Belonging At School: A Case For Interpersonal, Instructional, And Institutional Opportunity Structures, De Leon L. Gray, Elan C. Hope, Jamaal Matthews
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
This article is guided by two goals: (a) to consider how race-based perspectives can serve as theoretical tools for investigating Black adolescents’ opportunities to belong at school, and (b) to describe cultural and political aspects of schooling that can support a sense of belongingness among Black adolescents. We discuss support for the belonging of Black adolescents in terms of interpersonal, instructional, and institutional opportunity structures. We provide a set of guiding questions for scholars seeking to advance educational psychology research at the intersection of race, belonging, and motivation. We end by describing specific research directions for an inclusive examination of …
Active Solidarity: Centering The Demands And Vision Of The Black Lives Matter Movement In Teacher Education, Edwin Mayorga, Bree Picower
Active Solidarity: Centering The Demands And Vision Of The Black Lives Matter Movement In Teacher Education, Edwin Mayorga, Bree Picower
Department of Teaching and Learning Scholarship and Creative Works
In the era of Black Lives Matter (#BLM), urban teacher education does not exist in isolation. The White supremacist, neoliberal context that impacts all aspects of Black lives also serves to support antiblackness within the structures of teacher education. In this article, the authors, who are grounded in a race radical analytical and political framework, share a vision of what it means to be an urban teacher who actively understands and teaches in solidarity with #BLM. The authors unpack their theoretical framework and the vision of #BLM while examining the state of teacher education in this era of neoliberal multiculturalism. …
Dysconscious Ableism: Toward A Liberatory Praxis In Teacher Education, Alicia Broderick, Priya Lalvani
Dysconscious Ableism: Toward A Liberatory Praxis In Teacher Education, Alicia Broderick, Priya Lalvani
Department of Teaching and Learning Scholarship and Creative Works
This study draws upon King’s [1991. “Dysconscious Racism: Ideology, Identity, and the Miseducation of Teachers.” Journal of Negro Education 60 (2): 133–146] concept of dysconscious racism, extrapolating from it the analogous conceptual device of dysconscious ableism. We report upon data drawn from an inquiry at a US university-based teacher preparation programme, wherein we analyse our teacher education candidates’ writing through the conceptual lens of dysconscious ableism, to better understand their conceptualisations of dis/ability, and their understanding of existing examples of educational segregation based upon those conceptualisations. We make an argument for the necessity of engaging in studies of ableism in …
Do You See What I See? An Investigation Of The Aesthetic Experience In The Laboratory And Museum, Eva Specker, Pablo Tinio, Michiel Van Elk
Do You See What I See? An Investigation Of The Aesthetic Experience In The Laboratory And Museum, Eva Specker, Pablo Tinio, Michiel Van Elk
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
Two studies examined people's aesthetic experiences of art in the laboratory and the museum. The theoretical framework guiding the research was based on the Mirror Model of Art (Tinio, 2013), which proposes that the process of artistic creation and artistic reception mirror each other. Study 1 used a think-aloud protocol to assess people's natural and spontaneous reactions while looking at art. Study 2 examined whether presenting information about an artwork in a certain order (lower-order to higherorder information or higher-order to lower-order information) enhances aspects of the aesthetic experience and retention of information about art. Studies 1 and 2 were …

Insiders Doing Par With Youth In Their Schools: Negotiating Professional Boundaries And Healing Justice, Kathryn Herr
Insiders Doing Par With Youth In Their Schools: Negotiating Professional Boundaries And Healing Justice, Kathryn Herr
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
In this essay, I explore my experiences as a practitioner researcher collaborating with my students on a participatory action research project aimed at institutional change. I take up two areas: blurring the boundaries of professionalism in working toward authentic collaborations with students, and secondly, incorporating perspectives of ‘healing justice’ into school-based youth participatory action research (YPAR). I first provide a framework by delineating the emancipatory aims of YPAR and how these may be at odds with much of the research teachers/practitioners currently conduct in their school sites. While ultimately acknowledging the risks in taking up emancipatory change efforts as insiders, …

From Advocacy To Activism: Families, Communities, And Collective Change, Janet Story Sauer, Priya Lalvani
Department of Teaching and Learning Scholarship and Creative Works
Although countries across the globe support the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (2006), when faced with competing economic priorities, their policies and practices too often negatively impact children with disabilities and their families (Ferguson,). Current social and educational structures are implicated in inequitable services, particularly for those families from nondominant languages and minority racial and ethnic groups (McCall & Skrtic, Ong-Dean,). Recognizing the importance of contexts and power imbalances, we posit that the broader communities in which families live and that determine the opportunities they are afforded, should be explicitly addressed when evaluating a family's …

Time Spent Viewing Art And Reading Labels, Lisa F. Smith, Jeffrey K. Smith, Pablo Tinio
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
A study conducted at the Metropolitan Museum of Art 15 years ago found that the mean amount of time visitors spent looking at great works of art was 27.2 s, with the median at 17.0 s and the mode at 10.0 s (J. K. Smith & Smith, 2001). The study presented here aimed to revisit that study at The Art Institute of Chicago and expand on it by including a larger sample size, a larger number of artworks from more-diverse genres and time periods, and separate observations for time spent looking at the artworks and reading the accompanying labels. As …
"Integrated Out Of Existence": African American Debates Over School Integration Versus Separation At The Bordentown School In New Jersey, 1886-1955, Zoe Burkholder
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
The Bordentown Manual Training and Industrial School for Colored Youth in New Jersey allows us to consider the history of black education from a new perspective: that of northern black educational activists in the first half of the twentieth century. While we know a great deal about how black southerners made school integration central to the civil rights movement in the decades following Brown, as well as later battles for school integration in northern cities like New York and Boston, we know less about how black educational activists in the North advocated for educational equality before Brown. This article expands …

Department of Teaching and Learning Scholarship and Creative Works
Transition planning is a mandated component of individualized education plans (IEPs) designed to ensure successful transition to adult life for students with disabilities. Students with social, emotional, and behavioral (SEB) needs experience poor post-school outcomes, suggesting a need for more effective transition planning. This study evaluated student and parent knowledge of employment and training goals in IEPs and the match between goals and student future planning. Ninety-three high school students and parents reported their IEP participation and knowledge of goals and responses were compared to goals in their IEPs. Results indicated that students and parents had limited knowledge of goals …

Exploring Divergent Patterns In Racial Identity Profiles Between Caribbean Black American And African American Adolescents: The Links To Perceived Discrimination And Psychological Concerns, Delida Sanchez, Keisha L. Bentley-Edwards, Jamaal Matthews, Teresa Granillo
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
Using cluster analyses, this study explored the relations among racial identity, perceived discrimination, and psychological concerns among 189 Caribbean Black American and African American adolescents. Findings showed that for all participants, less mature racial identity profiles were significantly related to perceived discrimination and psychological concerns. However, nuances in racial identity profiles between Caribbean Black American and African American participants suggest subtle ethnic group differences in racial identity development. Implications for practitioners and research are discussed. Usando análisis cluster, este estudio exploró las relaciones entre identidad racial, discriminación percibida y preocupaciones psicológicas en 189 adolescentes afroamericanos y americanos negros caribeños. Los …

Through a self-study methodology, six doctoral students and a professor examine how our semester long doctoral level class became a transformative space for all participants. We investigate how each individual was able to participate in the construction of a powerful and meaningful learning community, which led to a re-visioning of ourselves as women and teacher educators. Feminist pedagogy and positioning theory provide a guiding framework for both the class and our own reflective research. Our findings include, but are not limited to, showing how negotiating the curriculum led to a doctoral class becoming a safe space and how this negotiation …
Consequences Of Beauty: Effects Of Rater Sex And Sexual Orientation On The Visual Exploration And Evaluation Of Attractiveness In Real World Scenes, Aleksandra Mitrovic, Pablo Tinio, Helmut Leder
Consequences Of Beauty: Effects Of Rater Sex And Sexual Orientation On The Visual Exploration And Evaluation Of Attractiveness In Real World Scenes, Aleksandra Mitrovic, Pablo Tinio, Helmut Leder
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
One of the key behavioral effects of attractiveness is increased visual attention to attractive people. This effect is often explained in terms of evolutionary adaptations, such as attractiveness being an indicator of good health. Other factors could influence this effect. In the present study, we explored the modulating role of sexual orientation on the effects of attractiveness on exploratory visual behavior. Heterosexual and homosexual men and women viewed natural-looking scenes that depicted either two women or two men who varied systematically in levels of attractiveness (based on a pre¬study). Participants' eye movements and attractiveness ratings toward the faces of the …
Breve Reseña Histórica De La Preparación De Magisterio En Los Estados Unidos, Jaime Grinberg
Breve Reseña Histórica De La Preparación De Magisterio En Los Estados Unidos, Jaime Grinberg
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
This work presents a brief historical analysis of the history of teacher education and development in the US, during the19th and 20th centuries. It provides information about the conditions and evolution of such preparation, including the development of Normal Schools into University settings, political pressures, the impact of market oriented decisions, and the relationships with social aspects such as gender, social class, and status of the teaching corps, as well as discussing the pathologizing discourses of professional development for teachers. Such preparation has been uneven, often fostering a low intellectual profile, and with a focus on technical knowledge, which contributes …
What's Our Position? A Critical Media Literacy Study Of Popular Culture Websites With Eighth-Grade Special Education Students, Ted Kesler, Pablo Tinio, Brian T. Nolan
What's Our Position? A Critical Media Literacy Study Of Popular Culture Websites With Eighth-Grade Special Education Students, Ted Kesler, Pablo Tinio, Brian T. Nolan
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
This article reports on an action research project with 9 eighth-grade special education students in a self-contained classroom in an urban public school. The 1st author, in collaboration with the classroom teacher (3rd author), taught the students a critical media literacy framework to explore popular culture websites. Students learned to analyze these sites for issues of authorship; design; intended audience; ideology; and political, social, and profit motive agendas. Based in theories from new literacies, multiliteracies, multimodal literacy, and critical media literacy, the article addresses the following questions: What understandings as critical readers of popular culture websites did the students exhibit? …

Promoting Access Through Segregation: The Emergence Of The "Prioritized Curriculum" Class, Jessica Bacon, Carrie E. Rood, Beth A. Ferri
Department of Teaching and Learning Scholarship and Creative Works
The continuously evolving standards-based reform (SBR) movement is one of the most prominent features of today's educational policy landscape. As SBR has continued to drive educational policy, local schools and districts have adopted many approaches to comply with legal mandates. This article critically examines one particular resultant phenomenon of the SBR movement-the emergence of a new track of self-contained classes called Prioritized Curriculum classes, designed to provide students with disabilities access to standards-based general education curriculum, but in a segregated class. In this article we document the emergence of such courses and critically analyze the rationales and policy loopholes that …
Which Middle School Model Works Best? Evidence From The Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Brian V. Carolan, Christopher C. Weiss, Jamaal Matthews
Which Middle School Model Works Best? Evidence From The Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Brian V. Carolan, Christopher C. Weiss, Jamaal Matthews
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
There are few areas of school organization that reflect more dissatisfaction than how to structure the education of adolescents in the middle grades. This study uses multilevel models on nationally representative data provided by the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study to investigate the relationship between schools’ middle-level grade span and students’ math achievement. Classroom quality was considered as an explanation for any relationships between grade span and achievement. Also examined was whether gender and family structure moderated this relationship. Results indicate that there is no generalizable relationship between grade span configuration and math achievement, but that measures of classroom quality predicted …
Disability, Stigma And Otherness: Perspectives Of Parents And Teachers, Priya Lalvani
Disability, Stigma And Otherness: Perspectives Of Parents And Teachers, Priya Lalvani
Department of Teaching and Learning Scholarship and Creative Works
This qualitative study explored the perspectives of parents and teachers in the US with regard to the meaning and implications of disability in the context of schoolling, and of raising a child with a disability. The findings revealed broad conceptual differences in the perspectives of these two groups. Teachers’ beliefs were generally consistent with medical model perspectives on disability as biologically defined. Parents’ interpretations, more aligned with a sociocultural paradigm, were situated in the cultural meanings ascribed to disability and linked with issues of stigma, marginalisation and access. The findings also revealed the existence of master narratives on families of …
Learning To Teach For Social Justice: Context And Progressivism At Bank Street In The 1930’S, Jaime Grinberg, Katia Paz Goldfarb
Learning To Teach For Social Justice: Context And Progressivism At Bank Street In The 1930’S, Jaime Grinberg, Katia Paz Goldfarb
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
This is a historical case study of the role of contexts in the education of progressive teachers and learning to advance social justice through teaching. The case focuses on how progressive education, progressive schools, and progressive ideas in the US, primarily during the 1930’s influenced a very distinctive program, The Cooperative School for Teachers, which became Bank Street College of Education, in New York City. And in turn how this program came to influence what progressive teacher education could be about. This paper addresses how students at Bank Street developed a sense of relationship between the need to understand and …
