The Importance Of Affective Variables In Private Academic Settings: A Review Of High School Teachers And University Professors’ Approach, Luiza Zeqiri
UBT International Conference
Understanding students’ feelings in the classroom is a complex phenomenon. There are cases when students come to school or university: sick, feeling sad, afraid, ignored or neglected from their friends or their family members. All these are possible factors which can have an impact on the emotional states of the students in the classroom. As a result, their negative emotions can be a serious threat to their academic achievements. If teachers ignore the influence of affective variables on students’ behaviour, the students are more likely to fail. Therefore, this study aims to investigate how high school teachers and university professors; …
English Is Not Dead! Long Live English: Teaching The Evolution Of English And Inclusive Communication Via Online, Face To Face Or Hybrid Instruction, Teresa Marie Kelly, Stephanie Thompson, Sheryl Bone
English Is Not Dead! Long Live English: Teaching The Evolution Of English And Inclusive Communication Via Online, Face To Face Or Hybrid Instruction, Teresa Marie Kelly, Stephanie Thompson, Sheryl Bone
Georgia International Conference on Information Literacy
When popular media and many individuals discuss changes in English, some erroneously contend that the language has always been the same and changes amount to little more than “politically correct woke liberalism” desired by only certain people. The English language continually evolves as a natural process that nothing can force nor prevent. Field-specific language also changes with increased understanding and knowledge. The variety of English taught to most students also shifts as Writing Across the Curriculum (WAC)/Writing Across Disciplines (WAD) initiatives increasingly focus on Global English rather than the standard of any one country or group. Even informal interactions with …

Writing And Publishing For Early Career Academics, Sunny L. Munn, Jill Zarestky, Jeremy Bohonos, Joshua Collins, Tonette Rocco
Adult Education Research Conference
This panel will describe strategies to help early career academics prepare a first publication and develop a research agenda. This interactive session provides graduate students and early career scholars with an overview of the types of papers frequently found in academic journals, and shares approaches to writing for both peer-reviewed and non-peer-reviewed sections. The panel includes engaging participants in discussion around current research topics, drafting a manuscript, and building and executing a research agenda. The strategies and insights we share will be particularly useful to those wanting to understand the academic publishing process more thoroughly.
Is It "Just" A Methods Course? - Developing Elementary Teacher's Social Justice Advocacy Competency, Karyn A. Allee-Herndon
Is It "Just" A Methods Course? - Developing Elementary Teacher's Social Justice Advocacy Competency, Karyn A. Allee-Herndon
Georgia Educational Research Association Conference
This study/survey was born from the construct that social inequities have a long history in the United States and beyond, impacting our social, historical, and cultural growth, and our ability to create a welcoming community. This is a continuation of a study begun at another institution and will add to our understanding of how best to support teacher candidates in their preparation and development as advocates. This study uses a pre-post survey design using purposive sampling of teacher candidates in an elementary writing methods course.
Getting It Published: Transforming The Publishing Activities Of Stem Graduate Students Through A Collaborative Workshop Series, Brittany Wofford, Sarah Park
Getting It Published: Transforming The Publishing Activities Of Stem Graduate Students Through A Collaborative Workshop Series, Brittany Wofford, Sarah Park
Transforming Libraries for Graduate Students
Writing and publishing are essential activities for young researchers, yet many newly arrived graduate students struggle to learn both foundational writing skills and the knowledge necessary to navigate an increasingly complex publishing landscape. To help students make informed decisions through their writing publishing journey, science and engineering librarians at Duke University Libraries partnered with the Pratt School of Engineering in summer 2019 to organize a series of workshops on the publishing life cycle for STEM graduate students. This collaboration was especially unique as it was the first time that the library has collaborated with a school to share expertise with …

“Partnering To Understand Undergraduate Research And Writing Longitudinally”, Donna Scheidt, Cara Kozma, Holly Middleton, Kathy Shields
Georgia International Conference on Information Literacy
In her longitudinal case study of a single undergraduate, College Writing and Beyond (2007), Anne Beaufort investigates several knowledge domains contributing to students’ development as writers. As a team of librarians and writing faculty in research and teaching partnership, we hope to build on Beaufort’s work by examining and elaborating the role of research with respect to writing development by sharing findings from our own longitudinal study of undergraduates’ development as writer-researchers. Specifically, we are interested in the ways in which undergraduates’ research interfaces with their writing practices as they advance through their general education coursework and various disciplines. How …
Four Glos Walk Into A Classroom: The Challenge Of Supporting Critical Skill Growth, Megan O'Neill, Grace Kaletski
Four Glos Walk Into A Classroom: The Challenge Of Supporting Critical Skill Growth, Megan O'Neill, Grace Kaletski
Georgia International Conference on Information Literacy
In this presentation, we outline the challenges faced when we adopted a LEAP-inspired general education curriculum with several critical skills as outcomes but created no support structure to deliver and foster them. Our General Learning Outcomes (GLOs) include writing, information literacy, speaking, and critical thinking; however, we had faculty leadership, expertise, and tutoring support only for writing. While writing assessment showed strong results and ultimately created curriculum change, the outsourced assessments of info lit, critical thinking, and speaking gave us widely divergent and unsatisfactory results. As one consequence, assessment efforts stalled in those areas. Looking at the successful development model …

Elizabeth (Betty) Loosley: Adult Education And Research Excellence, Leona M. English
Adult Education Research Conference
Elizabeth (Betty) Wyeth Magee Loosley (1911-1994) was an artist and researcher, and one of the best educated women working with the Canadian Association for Adult Education (CAAE, founded 1935) in the 1950s and 1960s. This paper uses archival and interview data to examine her achievements and contributions to the CAAE. This study helps us understand our field’s gendered history and development.

Using A Student-Centered Approach To Feedback That Fosters Active Learning And Knowledge Construction, M. Carolina Orgnero, Sandy Bell
Using A Student-Centered Approach To Feedback That Fosters Active Learning And Knowledge Construction, M. Carolina Orgnero, Sandy Bell
Adult Education Research Conference
The purpose of this roundtable is to invite participants to examine the ways and extent to which their methods of engaging students in feedback processes support a student-centered approach to feedback. The authors will introduce a research-based model of feedback that analyzes how college students apply feedback to their writing.
