Teaching Progress: A Critique Of The Grand Narrative Of Human Rights As Pedagogy For Marginalized Students, Mikaila Mariel Lemonik Arthur, Robyn Linde
Teaching Progress: A Critique Of The Grand Narrative Of Human Rights As Pedagogy For Marginalized Students, Mikaila Mariel Lemonik Arthur, Robyn Linde
Faculty Publications
Drawing on our experience as professors who teach human rights, social justice, and social movements courses at an urban college in Providence, R.I., with a student body that includes large populations who are of color, first generation, economically disadvantaged, and nontraditional in other ways, we explore the relevance and impact of these grand narratives for the lives of our students and their sense of political agency. In particular, we advocate for a critical approach to human rights pedagogy to counter and overcome the pervasive individualization that undergirds the grand narrative of human rights. We argue that a critical (and radical) …

Sustainable Science And Education In The Neoliberal Ecoprison, Peter C. Little
Sustainable Science And Education In The Neoliberal Ecoprison, Peter C. Little
Faculty Publications
As part of the general ‘greening’ of prisons in the last decade of neoliberalization and the formation of institutionalized programs to provide science and environmental education opportunities for the incarcerated, the Sustainability in Prisons Project (SPP), a partnership between Evergreen State College and the Washington State Department of Corrections, has become the most vibrant partnership in the US to mesh the cultures and institutions of environmental science and corrections. Drawing attention to the SPP’s anchoring mission, which is ‘to bring science and nature into prisons,’ this article looks at environmental science education in the contemporary prison in light of recent …

What's The Sense In Nonsense Word Fluency Probes?, Maggie M. Habershaw
Honors Projects
A major focus of education in the United States has been for “optimal” literacy instruction for all students. To accomplish this goal, major initiatives have centered upon the early identification and prevention of reading difficulties. To this end, professionals in the field are using numerous literacy programs and assessments to promote optimal literacy instruction. One of these assessment programs is the Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills (DIBELS). Across the United States, over 2,000,000 students are administered the DIBELS Nonsense Word Fluency probe each year. The purpose of this study is to reflect on teacher perceptions and experiences with …
Teachers' Self-Directed Informal Learning For Technology Integration In 1:1 Device High Schools, Mary Moen
Teachers' Self-Directed Informal Learning For Technology Integration In 1:1 Device High Schools, Mary Moen
Master's Theses, Dissertations, Graduate Research and Major Papers Overview
Public schools are implementing 1:1 computing programs in the hopes of
transforming education to provide students with the digital literacy competencies that
will enable them to be successful in our technology driven world. Continuous
professional learning is critical in helping teachers develop the knowledge and skills
for effective educational technology integration. Research has found however, that
formal professional development, commonly implemented as one-time workshops
with outside facilitators, are ineffective due to the multi-dimensional nature of
technology integration. Teacher continuous professional learning outside of the formal
context needs be considered. This survey study explored the self-directed informal
online and offline learning …
A Pre-Service Art Educator's Explorations Of Design Education, Emily Woratzeck
A Pre-Service Art Educator's Explorations Of Design Education, Emily Woratzeck
Master's Theses, Dissertations, Graduate Research and Major Papers Overview
This research was meant as an exploration of design education from a variety of angles. These investigations informed me, a pre-service art educator, in how I can teach design within my curriculum as well as advocate for design education in my professional career. I focused on two aspects of design: designed products representing the human made world that surrounds us, sometimes referred to as applied arts; and the design process, or design thinking, a reflective process. In an attempt to get a full view of the importance of and applications for design in the art education classroom, I researched through …
