Hungry Heartland: A Multidisciplinary, Multimedia, Service-Learning Class Project Han Yu, Tom Hallaq, And Shreepad Joglekar Kansas State University, Han Yu, Tom Hallaq, Shreepad Joglekar
Journal of Community Engagement and Higher Education
The Hungry Heartland project integrates service learning, media literacy, and multidisciplinary collaboration. It engages students from three disciplines to produce multimedia communication and raise public awareness about the lack of healthy food access in Kansas. Interviews and surveys were used to gather student feedback. Overall, students found the project a challenging learning experience, gained a sense of social responsibility, but remained conflicted about multidisciplinary collaboration. Lessons were drawn to inform future iterations of the project.

A Comparative Case Study Of Alumni Of Two Multi-Term Civic Learning Programs, Ryan Brent Nilsen, Bryant Hutson, Lynn Blanchard, Monica Siems, Laurel Hirt, Tania Mitchell
Journal of Community Engagement and Higher Education
This paper presents a comparative case study of the alumni of two multi-term civic learning programs that combine academic service-learning with a series of other student experiences such as the creation of online portfolios and capstone experiences over at least four semesters of an undergraduate education. Findings of this study suggest that alumni perceive substantial impact on their civic and professional experiences after graduation because of their participation in such programs while undergraduates.
Cultivating A Civic Mindset: Assessing Public Relations Student Perceptions Of Service Learning And Community Involvement Beyond The Course, Christopher J. Mccollough
Cultivating A Civic Mindset: Assessing Public Relations Student Perceptions Of Service Learning And Community Involvement Beyond The Course, Christopher J. Mccollough
Journal of Community Engagement and Higher Education
Literature in service learning offers examples of professional, social, and civic value to students, faculty, and community. The literature has not fully examined the impact of student participation on their levels of civic involvement among graduates several years removed from the coursework. This study is a case analysis of seven years of graduates with public relations course experience to examine graduates’ perceptions of the value of service-learning projects, and how this translates to community engagement.
Educating For Social Justice Through Activist-Oriented Sites, Colleen Rost-Banik
Educating For Social Justice Through Activist-Oriented Sites, Colleen Rost-Banik
Journal of Community Engagement and Higher Education
This study combines critical service learning (Mitchell, 2008) and antioppressive pedagogies (Kumashiro, 2002) to highlight the importance of using community sites aimed toward transformational social change. How sites are structured and how students are positioned influence what students learn from the experience. Using ethnographic methods, I analyze experiences of college service learners working with a labor union to illustrate how activist-oriented organizations are fundamental to providing critical spaces of learning and social change.
Spatializing Community-Based Learning: How A Critical Geography Framework Can Foster Understandings Of Structural Inequality And Egalitarian Relationships, Roseann Liu, Sarah Fischmann, Ashley Hong, Kathleen Melville
Spatializing Community-Based Learning: How A Critical Geography Framework Can Foster Understandings Of Structural Inequality And Egalitarian Relationships, Roseann Liu, Sarah Fischmann, Ashley Hong, Kathleen Melville
Journal of Community Engagement and Higher Education
Critical service learning is an approach that works toward social transformation and egalitarian partnerships. However, the ways in which space facilitates or undermines this approach has been largely unexplored. Drawing on a case study from an urban education course, we argue that a critical geography framework can develop students’ understandings of structural inequalities and nurture egalitarian relationships between partners.

The Family Story Project: Narrative, Ethics, And Community Collaboration Between Ronald Mcdonald House Of Durham Families And Pre-Health Undergraduates, Denise K. Comer
Journal of Community Engagement and Higher Education
The Family Story Project (FSP) brought together families at the Ronald McDonald House of Durham (RMHD) and pre-health undergraduates to co-construct narratives and visual portraits about family experiences. FSP shows that narratives can be rewarding for families and offer formative, skill-building experiences for pre-health undergraduates. FSP also demonstrates the ethical complexities surrounding community-university partnerships in health contexts, particularly with vulnerable populations such as children.

Preload: A Rubric To Evaluate Course Syllabi For Quality Indicators Of Community Engagement And Service-Learning Components, Laura Kieran, Sally Haack
Journal of Community Engagement and Higher Education
Faculty development programs have proven successful in teaching faculty how to develop community engagement and service-learning (CES-L) courses. Evaluating the outcomes of these programs can occur through assessment of course syllabi for CES-L elements. The PRELOAD rubric was created, which includes the following facets: Partnership, Reflection, Engagement, Logistics, Objectives, Assessment, and Definition. The rubric can support faculty developing CES-L courses and community engagement offices documenting the scope of CES-L opportunities across campus.

Beyond Objectivity: Examining The Effects Of Incorporating Civic Engagement Into Higher Education Journalism Courses, Jennifer Brannock Cox
Journal of Community Engagement and Higher Education
This paper examines a case study comparing students in civic engagement-enhanced journalism classes with those in which civic engagement was not emphasized in a medium-sized Mid- Atlantic university. Students completed surveys at the conclusion of the spring 2017 semester assessing their attitudes toward professional journalism roles. Students in courses containing civic engagement work prized contextual roles and were more open to non-traditional forms of community engagement journalism than their counterparts, who focused more on interpretive/ disseminator roles.

Translating Encounters: Connecting Indigenous Young People With Higher Education Through A Transmedia Project, Kristine Alexander, Hudson Eagle Bear, Tesla Heavy Runner, Ashley Henrickson, Taylor Little
Journal of Community Engagement and Higher Education
This piece draws on multiple voices to reflect on a collaborative project between universitybased researchers and a local community organization devoted to Indigenous Blackfoot children and their families. The evolution of the project from one based on photoelicitation to one devoted to building a digital storytelling library meant a methodological shift to acknowledge the role of translation in encounters between university researchers and community practitioners, between Elders and youth, and between settlers and Indigenous people. Our experience provides lessons on the importance of taking seriously the moments when difference is encountered and translated during the research and community-building process.
Using Games To Solve Real-World Civic Problems: Early Insights And Design Principles, Karen Schrier
Using Games To Solve Real-World Civic Problems: Early Insights And Design Principles, Karen Schrier
Journal of Community Engagement and Higher Education
Video games are starting to be used to support civic learning and engagement. Moreover, games are being used to crowdsource solutions to real-world problems; however, few of these games address civic problems and engage adolescents and young adults. In this paper, I explore designing and using games for real-world civic problem-solving, as well as for supporting civic engagement among young adults. Using a design analysis approach, I investigate six video games and propose 20 initial design elements for use in creating and implementing civic problem- solving games. These include principles such as: using authentic civic problems, data, and tools; enabling …

Equal Status: Shifting Scholarship Paradigms To Fully Include Community-Based Research Into Undergraduate Research Programs, Susan B. Harden, Kim Buch, Lynn Ahlgrim-Delzell
Equal Status: Shifting Scholarship Paradigms To Fully Include Community-Based Research Into Undergraduate Research Programs, Susan B. Harden, Kim Buch, Lynn Ahlgrim-Delzell
Journal of Community Engagement and Higher Education
Undergraduate research (UR) experiences continue to proliferate across all higher education settings. Yet community-based research (CBR) experiences account for a small percentage of UR opportunities. This paper describes the pilot study results of a summer program that is intentionally expanding the paradigm for UR at a public research university to include CBR as an equally valued form of scholarship. Results indicate that CBR opportunities expand participation by underrepresented students in UR. Dedicated program administration by CBR faculty and unique recruitment, design, and programs contributed to program success.

When Pushback Comes To Emotional Shove: Examining The Impact Of Harsh Parenting On Children’S Behavior, Elyse Christian
Master of Arts in Human Services
As parents are a child’s first teachers, high-quality information about parenting techniques is vital. Parents should have the opportunity to make informed, evidence-based decisions about the best parenting styles for each child through an understanding of appropriate developmental implications. Many parents are not aware of the adverse effects some techniques can have, even if outcomes appear positive on the surface. This research paper aimed to illustrate how harsh parenting methods can negatively impact a child’s behavior. To accomplish this, a collection of peer-reviewed articles was thoroughly reviewed. Following an introduction to the existing knowledge, 18 articles were presented. The articles …
The Moderating Effect Of Social Support On The Relationship Between Occupational Distress And Somatic Symptoms Among Catholic Clergy, Aldo Antonio Molina-Moore
The Moderating Effect Of Social Support On The Relationship Between Occupational Distress And Somatic Symptoms Among Catholic Clergy, Aldo Antonio Molina-Moore
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Clergy exhibit significantly higher rates of stress, mortality, and chronic disease than the general population. Despite existing research on clergy stress, there remained a gap in understanding how social support affected the relationship between occupational distress and somatic symptoms among Catholic clergy in the United States. The purpose of this quantitative, nonexperimental correlational study was to determine if perceived supervisor support and perceived organizational support moderated the relationship between occupational distress and somatic symptoms among clergy. The stress-buffering model of social support was used as the theoretical framework. Data were collected through surveys from a sample of 253 Catholic priests …

Assessment Of Sexual Violence Risk Perception In Men Who Have Sex With Men: Proposal For The Development And Validation Of "G-Date"., D. J. Angelone, Damon Mitchell, Brooke Wells, Megan Korovich, Alexandra Nicoletti, Dustin Fife
College of Science & Mathematics Departmental Research
BACKGROUND: Sexual violence (SV) is a significant problem for sexual minorities, including men who have sex with men (MSM). The limited research suggests SV is associated with a host of syndemic conditions. These factors tend to cluster and interact to worsen one another. Unfortunately, while much work has been conducted to examine these factors in heterosexual women, there is a lack of research examining MSM, especially their SV risk perception. Further, MSM are active users of dating and sexual networking (DSN) mobile apps, and this technology has demonstrated usefulness for creating safe spaces for MSM to meet and engage partners. …
Social Media And Body Image With African American College Students Moderation Of Social Comparison, Khalil R. Coleman Ph.D.
Social Media And Body Image With African American College Students Moderation Of Social Comparison, Khalil R. Coleman Ph.D.
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Social media is a popular activity for emerging adults. Recent research shows that a negative relationship exists between social media use and mental health, particularly related to body image. Social media can adversely affect body image by falsely providing an idealistic or fake perspective, leading to body dysmorphia or mental health issues. However, this research has not been explored with African American college students. It is also not clear how social media plays a role in social media use and body image. Social comparison theory posits that more time comparing with others, which is easily done on social media, can …

Promotion And Personality In Military Officers As Moderated By Race, Margaret Raia
Promotion And Personality In Military Officers As Moderated By Race, Margaret Raia
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Career progression of U.S. military officers into the senior officer corps remains a difficult objective. Current research focuses on the lack of diversity in the senior officer corps and systematic factors inhibiting officers from promotions. This study was grounded in McCrae and Costa’s five-factor model of personality, to examine U.S. military officers’ personality characteristics and their relation to promotion while moderating for race. This quantitative study used binary logistical regression of survey data to establish whether the personality characteristics of openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism predict promotion. U.S. Army and Naval officers in ranks O4–O10 were sampled from social …
