Travel As A Ritual Toward Transformative Consciousness: Juxtaposing Che Guevara’S Biography And Teacher Candidates’ Narratives, Yishan Lea Aug 2014

Travel As A Ritual Toward Transformative Consciousness: Juxtaposing Che Guevara’S Biography And Teacher Candidates’ Narratives, Yishan Lea

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of Education and Professional Studies

This article discusses the development of critical consciousness by examining
the biographical-narratives in relationship to the experiential accounts on
travel. Biographical narratives are important cultural texts filled with history
and cultural nuances. The biography of Ernesto Che Guevara has resonated
with readers and viewers from around the world. By dreaming seemingly
impossible dreams and garnering triumph in the face of mounting obstacles,
Che has inspired the generations that have followed him. The life of Che,
which is a myth of idealism, has captivated the hearts of many around the
globe. This paper engages in the process of reading student narratives …

The One Voice Project, Amanda Rose Hartley Villarreal

Master of Theater Production Graduate Projects

This process drama is intended to guide inner-city students of diverse ethnic backgrounds in the discovery of theatre as a viable form of expression in their lives. Through the course of a 6-week unit, these students will be introduced to different types of performances, from pantomime to monologues, making theatrical performance a less foreign experience. Once they have gained a familiarity with theatre and with different types of performance, the students will be invited to write theatrical performances of their own.


An Analysis Of Social Behaviors In Stressful Situations Using Q-Sort Data, Lacie Bray-Akers, Shelby Gaydosh, Dylan Pelham, Morgan Phillips Jun 2014

An Analysis Of Social Behaviors In Stressful Situations Using Q-Sort Data, Lacie Bray-Akers, Shelby Gaydosh, Dylan Pelham, Morgan Phillips

International Journal of Undergraduate Research and Creative Activities

Theories suggest that humans may respond to stressful situations by engaging in certain social behaviors aimed at minimizing the effects of stress. Though these social responses during stress have been investigated in many ways, this study adds to the literature by using a standardized Q-sort technique to examine them. When participants characterized situations as more stressful, they reported a greater tendency to distance themselves from others and lesser expressions of warmth. For female participants only, when situations were described as more anxiety-inducing, participants reported greater seeking of assurance. Though male and female participants did not differ with respect to their …

Se Puede Y Se Debe: Educating Heritage Students, Edward Pinto, Itzia Luna, Isaac Meza May 2014

Se Puede Y Se Debe: Educating Heritage Students, Edward Pinto, Itzia Luna, Isaac Meza

Symposium Of University Research and Creative Expression (SOURCE)

Teaching heritage students requires a wide variety of best practices that focus on the development of the students’ vocabulary, cultural competence, and grammar, in addition to the four language skills (reading, writing, listening, and speaking). I will focus on the best practices of encouraging students to read many genres, providing a range of writing topics, assigning oral interviews with the community, and granting students the freedom to speak both English and Spanish in the classroom. Another effective teaching strategy for heritage language learners is using a macro-approach.

Se Puede Y Se Debe: Educating Heritage Students, Isaac Meza, Itzia Luna, Edward Pinto

Symposium Of University Research and Creative Expression (SOURCE)

There are many challenges in teaching heritage language learners because of the different levels of linguistic proficiency, cultural competence and identity. In the case of Spanish heritage speakers in the Central Washington region, most of them share a common background: their families come from rural areas in Mexico, and therefore, speak a Spanish vernacular that stigmatizes them. While some critics argue that it is important to teach a formal variety of Spanish and improve students’ writing skills, Kim Potowski (2002) contends that error correction should not be the framework. It would be more beneficial if heritage language teachers expanded their …

Symposium Of University Research and Creative Expression (SOURCE)

My presentation will introduce the key terminology to heritage language education: heritage language, heritage language learner and speaker, and heritage culture. Second, I will explain the significance of the three types of bilingualism (receptive, sequential, and simultaneous) and how they inform curriculum design for K-12 students. Third, I will address the need to separate heritage learners from L2 students. Lastly, I will give details of the different forms of assessments and the disadvantages that may arise from them.


Trung Institute Of English As A Second Language, Tyler Van Sickle May 2014

Trung Institute Of English As A Second Language, Tyler Van Sickle

Symposium Of University Research and Creative Expression (SOURCE)

Governmental and social pressures in Vietnam have increased the demand for English speakers within the workforce. With insufficient English programs in the public school system, many seek the education elsewhere. The Trung Institute will be a private school in Vietnam, specializing in teaching English as a second language (ESL). Currently ESL programs exist in Vietnam but most employ native English speakers with little teaching background as instructors. Teachers will be recruited from Teaching and ESL programs at Washington State University and Concordia for one-year stints in Vietnam. Teachers will be selected each year through an application process. The Institute is …


Bob Or Bop? A Phonological Investigation Into The Markedness Differential Hypothesis And The Subset Principle, Clara Hodges May 2014

Bob Or Bop? A Phonological Investigation Into The Markedness Differential Hypothesis And The Subset Principle, Clara Hodges

Symposium Of University Research and Creative Expression (SOURCE)

This paper investigates the predictive powers of the Markedness Differential Hypothesis (MDH) and the Subset Principle (SP), two important hypotheses in second language acquisition. MDH examines the markedness values of different cross-linguistic forms and predicts that second language learners will acquire unmarked forms before acquiring marked forms, while SP predicts the opposite. To test these hypotheses, production of word-final voiced obstruent stops and fricatives by Indonesian learners of English was examined. Because previous studies of a phonological nature seem to point to the MDH as an explanation for directionality of difficulty, similar results were expected here. The findings suggest that …


Assessing The Expectations For Learning Commons Tutoring, Olivia Hirschey May 2014

Assessing The Expectations For Learning Commons Tutoring, Olivia Hirschey

Symposium Of University Research and Creative Expression (SOURCE)

Within the Central Washington University Academic Research Commons (ARC), the Learning Commons subscribed to a new system of higher education tutoring. The Learning Commons offered students math tutoring, writing tutoring, and supplemental instruction through peer-to-peer, question-based collaborative learning. The Learning Commons launched in winter 2013, and faculty, staff, and administrators have had clear expectations as to its function for students, but one key group has previously been absent from this conversation: students. Understanding students’ expectations for tutorials was vital to both their experiences in the Learning Commons and to knowledge of tutorials. This research assessed the expectations students had for …


Cleave, Molly Mooney May 2014

Cleave, Molly Mooney

Symposium Of University Research and Creative Expression (SOURCE)

cleave is a lengthy experimental hybrid poem focusing on the dynamics of an abusive relationship. The piece focuses on how the relationship of the speaker to her abusive partner begins, escalates, and briefly on the relationship's aftermath and ways in which it continues to affect her. The piece is written from a first-person perspective that addresses the speaker's ex-husband. The project primarily explores themes of interpersonal relationships, sexuality, and identity. (Editor’s Note: This presentation may contain adult themes, content, or imagery.)

“L'Homme En Animal,” Human Animals, Michael Johnson, Lyndsey Burkette, Natalie Andrus, Victoria Zencak

Symposium Of University Research and Creative Expression (SOURCE)

In conjunction with World Languages Day (May 2, 2014), students from the French program will be staging a bilingual French-English performance of The Complete Fables of Jean de la Fontaine with musical interludes from Isabelle Aboulker's adaptation of the fables for a children's opera. La Fontaine wrote during the reign of Louis XIV and was a keen observer of social dynamics at the court of Versailles; his fables contain valuable lessons on the nature of power that still hold true today. Moreover, La Fontaine's observations about the continuities between animal nature and human nature fly in the face of his …
