No Tenure, No Benefits, No Autonomy, No Problem?, Nicole Duttlinger

Scholars Showcase 2018: Innovations in Leadership and Learning

Additionally, to aid the large adjunct faculty teaching force, higher education institutions are implementing centralized curriculum at higher rates particularly in online courses. These courses may erode instructional autonomy which may negatively influence faculty satisfaction. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to determine if the use of centralized curriculum erodes …

There is a great need to disseminate the accurate information to the general public.

The Problems Of Teaching And Applying Critical Ethics, Isidoro Talavera

Scholars Showcase 2018: Innovations in Leadership and Learning

To foster the development of ethical, responsible, and engaged citizens, it is important for students to learn to modify or correct belief molded by personal interest, motivated thinking, upbringing, and/or indoctrination. Critical ethics comes into play whenever a systematic attempt to get around the limitations of personal belief is sought to get to what ought to be done. Accordingly, I examine the problems associated with teaching and applying critical ethics—where critical thinking takes some ethical argument apart, via analysis, and evaluates whether some derived conclusion follows from the evidence to make reasonable, intelligent decisions about what to believe and what …
