Rethinking Schooling As Academic Development, Patricia A. Alexander Jan 2004

Rethinking Schooling As Academic Development, Patricia A. Alexander

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

The Model of Domain Learning (MDL) is described as a means of studying academic development or the systematic changes that occur in learners as a consequence of formal education. The differences between the MDL and traditional theory and research in expertise are overviewed, along with the components and stages of the model. Implications of the work in academic development and the MDL for educational research and practice are considered.


Using Sem To Develop A Model For Educators Of Children Who Are Exposed To The Trauma Of Violence, Rosalind Duplechain Jan 2004

Using Sem To Develop A Model For Educators Of Children Who Are Exposed To The Trauma Of Violence, Rosalind Duplechain

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

This study used Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to develop a teacher-friendly model for understanding the relationship between children’s exposure to traumatic events, such as violence exposure, and their school achievement. With a sample of 146 urban elementary (grades 2-5) children, three variables (mental health behaviors, performance-related behaviors, and standardized achievement) were examined. The model suggested that children who are exposed to violence in Year I were more delinquent and ultimately underachieved in reading in Year II. This model should help teachers identify students exposed to violence and address their social and academic needs.


Creating The Rosetta Stone: Deciphering The Language Of Accountability To Improve Student Performance, Donna Snodgrass Jan 2004

Creating The Rosetta Stone: Deciphering The Language Of Accountability To Improve Student Performance, Donna Snodgrass

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

The objectives of this paper are three-fold. First, a model is proposed for unifying massive amounts of conceptual and numerical information flowing from the measures of the accountability movement in Ohio and the materials that are publicly available to educators. Second, this model is translated into useable forms of information that help teachers drive instructional practices in their classrooms. Third, the efficacy of this model to improve state-mandated proficiency scores at the district level is discussed. Ultimately the authors attempt to provide the readers with a rudimentary model of an educational Rosetta Stone to helps educators decipher the contents of …


Two Methods Of Estimating A Study's Replicability, Isadore Newman, Keith Mcneil, John Fraas Jan 2004

Two Methods Of Estimating A Study's Replicability, Isadore Newman, Keith Mcneil, John Fraas

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

This article presents two methods of estimating a study’s replicability that researchers should consider reporting along with their statistical significant and effect size findings. One method of estimating the replicability of the findings deals with replication in the exact same system. The second method, which may contain subjective probability values, is used to estimate the replicability of a study’s findings in a system that may differ from the initial system with respect to salient variables. The incorporation of the replicability estimates delineated in this paper would provide critical information to decision makers about the likelihood that the implementation of a …

Talking An Article: A Conversation On Empowerment And Education, William Chandler, Anne D'Antonio Stinson, Holly Wendling, Lillie From, Beth Gruetzmacher

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

Emancipatory Pedagogies is the capstone experience for our Alternative Education Programs Licensure program. Employing non-traditional pedagogies, we taught Emancipatory Pedagogies for the first time in the summer of 2002. The reading list included several chapters from The Paulo Freire Reader (Freire and Macedo, 2001) and We Make the Road by Walking, the text spoken by Freire and Myles Horton. Recognizing the potential for powerful and empowering classroom dialog in the Freire-Horton model, our culminating activity was the "talking" of an article. That extended conversation is presented here. The reader will find that our dialog presents issues that Freire raised in …


Burakugaku (Buraku Study): A Paradigm Shift For Education, Yoshikazu Kawamoto, Hidetada Shimizu Jan 2004

Burakugaku (Buraku Study): A Paradigm Shift For Education, Yoshikazu Kawamoto, Hidetada Shimizu

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

Burakumin, Japan’s largest minority group, have been discriminated against throughout Japanese history for engaging in jobs that were considered to be defiling, e.g., slaughterers, tanners, and undertakers. Specifically, burakumin played the social and occupational roles despised by the majority Japanese, but those without which the Japanese society as a whole could not maintain its viable function, i.e., actual and symbolic processes of recycling whereby those which are dead and polluted were transformed into living and holy. In recent years, however, some burakumin scholars have begun to recast their identities; instead of examining the problem of being burakumin (the deficit model), …


Social Issues And Education: Commentary On The Use Of Freirian, Hortonian And Boalian Pedagogies In A Graduate College Classroom, Michael Sanders Jan 2004

Social Issues And Education: Commentary On The Use Of Freirian, Hortonian And Boalian Pedagogies In A Graduate College Classroom, Michael Sanders

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

My purpose for writing this commentary is to reflect on how one teacher attempted to utilize the philosophies and practices of Paolo Freire, Augusto Boal, and Myles Horton in a graduate level, educational foundations classroom. I take as my premise the view that pedagogical practice is political and that the processes of studying and changing practice are also political (Kemmis and McTaggart, 2000). The commentary is a testimony about how I attempted to construct ways in which classroom relations would encourage participants to engage with each other and the instructor in confrontational interaction to expose and examine held values and …
