Help A Sista Out: Black Women Doctoral Students’ Use Of Peer Mentorship As An Act Of Resistance, Jari L. Minnett, Arcasia D. James-Gallaway, Devean R. Owens Jan 2019

Help A Sista Out: Black Women Doctoral Students’ Use Of Peer Mentorship As An Act Of Resistance, Jari L. Minnett, Arcasia D. James-Gallaway, Devean R. Owens

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

Many Black women doctoral students entering and persisting through graduate study lack the affirmation, community, and resources necessary to confidently assert themselves as members of the academy. These barriers make it especially difficult for Black women to effectively navigate doctoral programs that privilege and normalize elite white male experiences. Using Black feminism as the conceptual lens, this manuscript presents a burgeoning peer mentorship framework of Black women doctoral students attending a predominantly white institution through a collective Black feminist autoethnography. This model highlights our strategy for not only surviving the academy, but also resisting manifestations of white heteropatriarchal violence within …


Sharing Stories And Learning To Lead: A Relational Mentoring Process Through Self-Portraiture, Kathleen M. Cowin, Sarah N. Newcomer Jan 2019

Sharing Stories And Learning To Lead: A Relational Mentoring Process Through Self-Portraiture, Kathleen M. Cowin, Sarah N. Newcomer

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

The creation of a relational, co-mentoring community for aspiring school leaders during their certification program may allow these future leaders to participate in a peer mentoring process wherein they engage one another in interdependence, experience reciprocal growth-fostering interactions, and tackle issues related to systemic power. The relational mentoring process creates a network of colleagues who understand the nature of the work of a principal candidate and who provide support and promote trust, knowing what they reveal will be held in confidence. This study focuses on two questions: How does the process of self-portraiture help principal candidates reflect on the kind …


Virtual Ethnography: The Post Possibilities Of Not Being There, Lauren Angelone Jan 2019

Virtual Ethnography: The Post Possibilities Of Not Being There, Lauren Angelone

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

The purpose of this paper is methodological. It serves as a defense of virtual ethnography as a method, not only well suited to postpositivist research, but as a tool to further interrogate the tenuous truth that all research produces. To accomplish this, virtual ethnography is situated within the history of qualitative inquiry and then examined in terms of data collection, analysis, and the types of productive challenges virtuality presents. The paper concludes by considering the use of virtual ethnography in education, particularly in the field of educational technology.


Facilitating Teacher Reflection Using A Metacognitive Tool, Mary-Kate Sableski, Kathryn Kinnucan-Welsch, Catherine Rosemary Jan 2019

Facilitating Teacher Reflection Using A Metacognitive Tool, Mary-Kate Sableski, Kathryn Kinnucan-Welsch, Catherine Rosemary

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

Teacher reflection is a central component of developing preservice and practicing teachers. This article describes a case study designed to explore reflection through an examination of a metacognitive tool, the Teacher Learning Instrument. The findings provide insight into the dimensions of reflection, specifically the interplay of observation and inference. Through their use of the metacognitive tool, the teachers adopted a metalanguage to discuss their observations of students’ learning, to express their thought processes about instruction, and to pinpoint changes to their instruction to enhance student performance. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the reflective process and inform the …


Elementary Teacher Perceptions Of Professional Development On The Neuroscience Of Learning, Wendy Bana, Jeff Cranmore Jan 2019

Elementary Teacher Perceptions Of Professional Development On The Neuroscience Of Learning, Wendy Bana, Jeff Cranmore

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

The purpose of this qualitative case study was to explore how knowledge on the neuroscience of learning may inform the practice of teaching and classroom instruction. Twelve purposively selected elementary teachers from a private school in California were asked about their perceptions of the nature of a professional development (PD) course on the neuroscience of learning and also their perceptions of the influence such training had on their practice. The conceptual framework for this study was Desimone and Garet’s (2015) model of effective professional development. Themes from semi structured interviews, focus groups, and observations of the teacher participants were identified …

An Investigation Of Three Approaches To Vocabulary Learning In High School Spanish Classes, Kathleen A. M. Jester, Rebecca M. Giles, Susan N. Ferguson Jan 2019

An Investigation Of Three Approaches To Vocabulary Learning In High School Spanish Classes, Kathleen A. M. Jester, Rebecca M. Giles, Susan N. Ferguson

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

Three vocabulary learning approaches -- rote memorization; Cover, Copy, Compare (CCC); and Cover, Copy, Compare Adapted with picture (CCCA) – were examined for effectiveness in promoting long-term memory retention for productive vocabulary in foreign language learning. Pretest, posttest, and delayed posttest data were collected using Conjuguemos, an on-line Spanish program. Results indicated a significant increase in mean scores with each assessment for all treatments; however, there was no significant difference in recall among the three learning approaches. Students were also surveyed about their preferences in approaches. Although survey responses indicated a preference for CCC, most students reported abandoning use of …


Differences In Perceived Issues In Teacher Preparation Between First-Year Teachers And Their Principals, Ximena Uribe-Zarain, Jia "Grace" Liang, James Sottile, George R. Watson Jan 2019

Differences In Perceived Issues In Teacher Preparation Between First-Year Teachers And Their Principals, Ximena Uribe-Zarain, Jia "Grace" Liang, James Sottile, George R. Watson

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

The perspectives of both teachers and principals are valuable in understanding to what extent recent graduates from formal educator preparation programs are ready to take on teaching roles and tasks as a teacher. The understanding gained may contribute to bettering initiatives targeted on teacher retention, particularly in those critical beginning years of practice. This study examined the perceived effectiveness of first-year teachers’ preparation from the perspectives of the teachers and the principals, utilizing three-year survey data of 644 first-year teachers who graduated from a higher education institution and 497 hosting principals in a Midwest state. The findings note that the …


"No One Wants To Be A Loser:" High School Students' Perceptions Of Academic Competition, Monica Kowalski, Andrea L. Christensen Jan 2019

"No One Wants To Be A Loser:" High School Students' Perceptions Of Academic Competition, Monica Kowalski, Andrea L. Christensen

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

This study sought to explore the often controversial role of competition in academic settings by interviewing 11 high school students, about half of whom were in an AP English course. The interviews asked the students to describe how they feel competition plays a role in their classrooms and personal learning experiences, and also how competition has influenced their motivation and achievement-related outcomes. Results indicated that all students had engaged in competition academically and it was viewed both positively and negatively, despite the fact that students’ description of specific experiences with competition were largely negative. Four dominant patterns emerged that depended …


Ethics In Partnership In Teacher Education, Leah Washburn-Moses Jan 2019

Ethics In Partnership In Teacher Education, Leah Washburn-Moses

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

Recently, teacher education has confronted pressures to intensify both quantity and quality of “clinical experiences,” resulting in both increased breadth and depth of partnerships supporting both K-12 and higher education. However, potential ethical issues have not been explored. This article reports results of a nationwide study examining ethics in partnership in teacher education in a representative sample of 248 institutions of higher education. Eighty-nine field directors and 61 clinical faculty responded to an ethics survey initially developed by the American Psychological Association (APA) from the APA Code of Ethics. Results indicated that respondents did encounter ethical issues in their work. …


Utilizing Family Systems Theory In College Readiness Counseling?, Bagmi Das, Beth H. Gilfillan Jan 2019

Utilizing Family Systems Theory In College Readiness Counseling?, Bagmi Das, Beth H. Gilfillan

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

Postsecondary planning includes academic, emotional, and financial challenges for which many students and families are unprepared. School counselors will be able to better prepare students and their families for the college readiness process through understanding and implementing concepts from Family Systems Theory. This manuscript focuses on core tenets of Family Systems Theory that are directly applicable to the college readiness experience. The authors then propose a new framework to utilize these concepts and guide school counselor-student-family interactions. The manuscript proposes the READ-E framework to incorporate Family Systems Theory into college readiness counseling for K-12 students.


Potential Applications Of Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (Fmri) To Organizational Research: A Primer And Sample Study, Allen I. Huffcutt, Wen-Ching Liu, Lori A. Russell-Chapin Dec 2018

Potential Applications Of Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (Fmri) To Organizational Research: A Primer And Sample Study, Allen I. Huffcutt, Wen-Ching Liu, Lori A. Russell-Chapin

Personnel Assessment and Decisions

The first purpose of this manuscript is to provide a primer for organizational researchers on both fMRI and brain physiology because few are likely to have encountered an in-depth treatment of either previously. The second purpose is to present the results of an actual fMRI study on an organizational topic (structured employment interviews) as a sample to help illustrate the potential of this type of research. Results of the sample study enhanced understanding of the brain processes behind responding to situational (SI) and behavior description (BDI) interviews, and offered several promising directions for follow-up research. To illustrate the latter, there …


Influence Of Vocal And Verbal Cues On Ratings Of Interview Anxiety And Interview Performance, Ryan O. Miller, Brianne L. Gayfer, Deborah M. Powell Dec 2018

Influence Of Vocal And Verbal Cues On Ratings Of Interview Anxiety And Interview Performance, Ryan O. Miller, Brianne L. Gayfer, Deborah M. Powell

Personnel Assessment and Decisions

In two studies, we examined the effect of the presence (versus absence) of vocal cues on judges’ ratings of interview anxiety and interview performance. In Study 1, we designed an experiment in which participants rated either a high-anxiety candidate or a low-anxiety candidate and were exposed to either an audio version of the interview or a text-only version. In Study 2, we added a third condition—a text-only version with filler words (um and ah) cleaned out. In two online studies (n = 72 and n = 411), we found that the high-anxiety interviewee was rated higher on observer-rated anxiety and …


Why Does The Public Sector Resist Unproctored Internet Testing?, Sami Nesnidol, Scott Highhouse Dec 2018

Why Does The Public Sector Resist Unproctored Internet Testing?, Sami Nesnidol, Scott Highhouse

Personnel Assessment and Decisions

Two studies examine public-sector practitioners’ concerns about unproctored Internet testing (UIT) for preemployment tests. Study 1 compared public- and private-sector practitioners (n = 66) on possible barriers to UIT adoption (i.e., lack of diffusion, measurement concerns, legal risk, and costs of implementation). Results showed that public-sector practitioners were far less favorably disposed toward implementation of UIT and were more concerned about lack of diffusion, measurement issues, and costs of implementation. Study 2 utilized a policy-capturing design to examine the factors public-sector practitioners consider most important when making simulated decisions about UIT adoption (n = 33). Of the factors examined, test …


A Meta-Analysis Of Hiring Discrimination Against Muslims And Arabs, Timothy Bartkoski, Ellen Lynch, Chelsea Witt, Cort Rudolph Dec 2018

A Meta-Analysis Of Hiring Discrimination Against Muslims And Arabs, Timothy Bartkoski, Ellen Lynch, Chelsea Witt, Cort Rudolph

Personnel Assessment and Decisions

Muslim and Arab individuals are discriminated against in almost all domains. Recently, there has been a focus on examining the treatment of these groups in the work setting. Despite the great number of primary studies examining this issue, there has not yet been a quantitative review of the research literature. To fill this gap, this meta-analysis examined the presence and magnitude of hiring discrimination against Muslim and Arab individuals. Using 46 independent effect sizes from 26 sources, we found evidence of discrimination against Muslim and Arab people in employment judgments, behaviors, and decisions across multiple countries. Moderator analyses revealed that …

Help! An Insight Into Long Distance Romantic Relationship Advice Sought Online, Brendan John Murphy Nov 2018

Help! An Insight Into Long Distance Romantic Relationship Advice Sought Online, Brendan John Murphy

Master of Arts in Media and Communication Plan II Graduate Projects

The purpose of this study was to examine the long-distance romantic relationship (LDRR) advice sought online and see how it relates to previous literature. Reddit posts from the r/LongDistance subreddit were narrowed using an advanced search to find the most popular (upvoted) advice from users. Qualitative, contextual analysis research was used to search for reoccurring themes throughout the advice sought. Results revealed that feelings of uncertainty and anxiety were very common within LDRR, and advice was sought about how to maintain relationships whilst living apart.
