World View Theory And Science Education Research, William W. Cobern

Scientific Literacy and Cultural Studies Project

This monograph is timely for the membership of NARST. As science educators probe teaching and learning in an endeavor to make sense of learning in classrooms, there is a need for theoretical frameworks to enable new questions to be posed and a correspondingly fresh set of responses to be obtained. World view is a framework that can be applied to research on teaching and learning science and fits well with the trend towards studies that are interpretive in nature. The number of science education researchers using ethnographic techniques in science education research is increasing steadily and theories and methods that …

The Relationship Between Locus Of Control And Self-Concept As A Learner: Does A Relationship Exist?, David B. Wood

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Before locus of control (LOC) and self-concept as a learner can be separately used in personality measurement, their construct independence must be established. Randall (1989) and Schmidt (1990) found moderate (.-49 and -.25) overlap between the Nowicki-Strickland Locus of Control Scale for Children (NSLOC) (Nowicki & Strickland, 1973) and Waetjen's (1967) Self-Concept As a Learner Scale (SCAL). Since Randall and Schmidts' data came from differently sized school districts, the exploration of district size as a variable seemed warranted.

Interest in LOC and self-concept has been studied extensively since Rotter's (1966) comprehensive review. Joe (1971) did a comprehensive review. Strickland (1972) …

Introductory Communication Theory: Not Another Skills Course, William C. Donaghy

Basic Communication Course Annual

Speech communication departments in every institution of higher education face unique circumstances when deciding their type and number of introductory courses. Different demands are placed on communication departments operating in community colleges, four year liberal arts colleges, land-grant institutions and major research universities. Some of these situational demands are: how the department is perceived by the administration (i.e., service or major oriented); whether skills courses are accepted as part of the college- or university-wide general education curriculum; whether the college or campus has a communication skills requirement; the college division in which the department is located (i.e., humanities, fine arts …

Instructional Communication Strategies For Adapting To A Multicultural Introductory Course, Charles A. Braithwaite, Dawn O. Braithwaite

Basic Communication Course Annual

No educator is surprised to hear that college enrollment for members of racial and ethnic groups is continuing to rise (The Chronicle of Higher Education, 1990). However, this increase was particularly striking for us after we began teaching in the southwestern United States. We had moved from Minnesota, where the proportion of college students who are minority-group members is only 4%, to New Mexico where the proportion of college students who are minority-group members is 35%, the highest for any state in the continental United States (The Chronicle of Higher Education, 1990). We now look out into multicultural classrooms that …

An Intradisciplinary Perspective, Multiple Methods Of Inquiry And Faculty Development - A Point Of View, John J. Makay, Mary Mohan

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article argues that effective faculty development in communication education requires an intradisciplinary perspective and mastery of multiple methods of inquiry. It critiques the trend toward interdisciplinary identity, urging scholars to center research within communication contexts while employing quantitative and qualitative approaches in concert. A model of intradisciplinary multi method inquiry is presented. The discussion considers technological change, shifting disciplinary boundaries, and the formation of scholarly teams as catalysts for continuous professional growth. By advocating literacy in diverse research traditions and collaborative inquiry, this article outlines a path that strengthens communication scholarship, enhances curricular relevance, and prepares faculty for emerging …

Teacher Evaluations: A Necessary Evil?, Charlotte J. Headrick

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article critiques the pervasive reliance on student evaluations as the primary metric of teaching effectiveness within higher education . Using narrative inquiry and reflective pedagogy it interrogates how statistical performance metrics can oversimplify complex classroom dynamics mask disciplinary differences between general education and theatre majors and distort tenure review and faculty development processes. The discussion connects assessment scholarship with organizational culture studies illustrating how research prestige and grant acquisition displace instructional quality in promotion deliberations . Through qualitative reflection on classroom practice production based learning and institutional policy this article exposes biases embedded in student feedback including workload aversion …

An Asian Interpretation Of Communication Education In The United States, Casey Man Kong Lum

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article examines the cultural implications of United States communication education for Asian societies by situating the academic journey of international students within the metaphor of Journey to the West. Drawing on communication and development scholarship it critiques media imperialism assumptions and demonstrates how Western theories technologies and pedagogy shape media production policy and professional practice across Asia. The discussion synthesizes uses and gratifications studies cultural studies and globalization research to reveal the agency of indigenous audiences and creators while acknowledging persistent structural inequities. By calling for epistemological reflexivity and the integration of Asian philosophical traditions, the article urges educators …

Causes Of Juvenile Delinquency In Jordan, Ayed A. Irfaifeh

Dissertations

This dissertation sought to examine the extent to which a set of social bonding factors were helpful in preventing delinquency in the Jordanian society. A sample of 147 juveniles (male eleventh-graders) from seven public high schools in the Tafielah Covernate and its localities completed a self-reported survey. Their answers were useful in ascertaining whether or not Hirschi's (1969) social control theory was indeed applicable cross-culturally, especially in a society dissimilar to the United States. Within the theoretical confines of Hirschi's theory, the descriptive data suggest that Jordanian youth have similar cultural beliefs, values, attitudes, and affiliation to the convention order …
