USF St. Petersburg campus Faculty Publications
This ethnodramatic performance session expands (Feldman, 2005; Saldaña, 2002, 2011; Snyder-Young, 2010) data taken from four narrative interviews shared by a first year teacher in the Chicago Public Schools. The session is constructed to evoke the teacher’s personal experience and bring to life the structures of power that shape her work (Denzin, 2001; Jacob, Stone, & Roderick, 2004; Kazubowski-Houston, 2010; Lipman, 2006; Roderick & Nagaoka, 2005; Vanover & Saldaña, 2005). No claims are made as the result of the performance; no judgments are rendered; no agendas are served. The session is designed to bring audience members together to ask deeper …
Making Time For Failure. Prepared For Working Data Imaginatively. Data Consultation Session Conducted At The 34th Annual Ethnography In Education Research Forum, February 23, 2013, Charles Vanover
USF St. Petersburg campus Faculty Publications
In this data analysis session, I ask the consultants not to help me analyze or interpret a text, but, in Feldman's (2005) words, to expand it. The text was shared during a narrative interview with a beginning teacher in the Chicago Public Schools, and it describes the teacher's favorite student. My question is how I might help others enter into this text imaginatively, ponder its meaning, and expend the events the teacher describes into an ethnodrama or other meditative vehicle that makes the case for change.

USF St. Petersburg campus Faculty Publications
The assessment of business courses and their learning goals and objectives is important for accredited business schools. However, not all business educators are necessarily knowledgeable and trained in designing appropriate learning objectives and aligning all aspects of a course around these learning objectives. This paper tries to fill this gap for business instructors by describing the concept of alignment. This paper also applies the concept of alignment to the specific learning module of capital budgeting analysis in an online MBA level corporate finance class. Important observations are given that help an instructor align a class with the course objectives, materials …
"They Are Only Going To Steal Your Cars." : An Ethnodrama About Teaching In The Chicago Public Schools, Charles Vanover
"They Are Only Going To Steal Your Cars." : An Ethnodrama About Teaching In The Chicago Public Schools, Charles Vanover
USF St. Petersburg campus Faculty Publications
The center of this ethnodrama is a brief dialogue voiced by an African-American, National Board Certified teacher, where she shared the advice the African American principal in her previous school gave her about her classroom’s many special needs students. “It’s one of those schools where, like, if your heart is not in it, your kids are going to feel it. And then, she also gets awesome teachers, but our principal knows how to make them go away! Like I did. I stayed there for two years, and it was just like, you have to believe in your kids. You know, …

Language And Literacy Of Pre-Adolescent/Adolescent Bilingual Students: Current Research, Alejandro E. Brice
Language And Literacy Of Pre-Adolescent/Adolescent Bilingual Students: Current Research, Alejandro E. Brice
USF St. Petersburg campus Faculty Publications
It is well documented that pre-adolescent and adolescent English learners (ELs) are at-risk for reading difficulties (Escamilla, Chavez, & Vigil, 2005; Lopez, 2009; Hemphill, Vanneman & Rahman, 2011; Snow, Burns & Griffin, 1998; Waxman, Padrón, Shin, & Rivera, 2008). Kohler and Lazarín (2007) stated, nationally only 29% of EL 8th grade students scored at or above the basic reading achievement levels. In comparison, nationally the non-EL 8th grade students scored at 75% at or above the basic reading achievement levels. In addition, the achievement gap among English learning (EL) students has existed and continues to exist. Unfortunately, this gap widens …
