Goofus And Gallant’S Guide To Textbook Cataloging, Scott Dutkiewicz Oct 2022

Goofus And Gallant’S Guide To Textbook Cataloging, Scott Dutkiewicz

Presentations

Though a long-neglected genre in academic libraries, acquisitions of textbooks are on the rise. But textbooks often do not receive adequate cataloging attention. How can catalogers improve their practices? Inspired by the Highlights for Children comic strip, this presentation discusses five “goofs” and five “gallant” practices when cataloging textbooks.

Citational Practices As A Site Of Resistance And Radical Pedagogy: Positioning The Multiply Marginalized And Underrepresented (Mmu) Scholar Database As An Infrastructural Intervention, Cana Uluak Itchuaqiyaq, Jordan Frith Oct 2022

Citational Practices As A Site Of Resistance And Radical Pedagogy: Positioning The Multiply Marginalized And Underrepresented (Mmu) Scholar Database As An Infrastructural Intervention, Cana Uluak Itchuaqiyaq, Jordan Frith

Publications

Discursive infrastructures are forms of writing that remain mostly invisible but shape higher-level practices built upon their base. This article argues that citational practices are a form of discursive infrastructure that are bases that shape our work. Most importantly, we argue that the infrastructural base built through citation practices is in a moment of breakdown as increasing amounts of people call for more just citational practices that surface multiply marginalized and underrepresented (MMU) scholar voices. Consequently, this article both theorizes citations as infrastructure while also focusing on a case study of the MMU scholar database to help build a more …


A Genealogy Of Social Geomedia: The Life, Death, And (Possible) Afterlife Of Location-Based Social Networks, Jordan Frith Oct 2022

A Genealogy Of Social Geomedia: The Life, Death, And (Possible) Afterlife Of Location-Based Social Networks, Jordan Frith

Publications

In the early 2010s, location-based social networks (LBSNs) received significant attention from both the public and venture capital. The “LBSN moment” was an important period of early mobile geomedia history, and this article argues that the reverberations of that moment still shape the contemporary social geomedia landscape. This article examines the LBSN moment through a media genealogy approach that views the period as a moment of juncture for the development of social location-sharing, which ended up being dominated by large platforms like Facebook and Uber. The article also draws from research on technological development to push back against narratives of …


Looking Back To Look Forward: 5g/Covid-19 Conspiracies And The Long History Of Infrastructural Fears, Jordan Frith, Scott Campbell, Leah Komen Oct 2022

Looking Back To Look Forward: 5g/Covid-19 Conspiracies And The Long History Of Infrastructural Fears, Jordan Frith, Scott Campbell, Leah Komen

Publications

Almost as soon as the COVID-19 pandemic began spreading throughout much of the world, conspiracies arose that blamed the virus on the deployment of fifth-generation cellular networks (5G) infrastructure. These conspiracies had significant consequences, including protests against 5G and the destruction of 5G infrastructure. This article uses a media genealogy approach to place the 5G/COVID-19 conspiracies within the long and recurring cycle of conspiracies focused on mobile infrastructure. Placed within that broader history, this article argues that the 5G/COVID-19 conspiracies should have been unsurprising, and these types of infrastructural conspiracies should be a more significant part of mobile media and …


Exploring African American Male Youth’S Perceptions Of Community Involvement Through 4-H Programs, Maurice Smith, Nicole Webster, Roshan Nayak Oct 2022

Exploring African American Male Youth’S Perceptions Of Community Involvement Through 4-H Programs, Maurice Smith, Nicole Webster, Roshan Nayak

Journal of Youth Development

Civic engagement research suggests that youths’ involvement in their communities results in a number of positive personal and social attributes. However, among urban populations, there is still a dearth of research on their involvement and the impact of civic participation on their development. More importantly within these populations, there is limited understanding of how Black male youth engage within civic participatory spaces. Increasing but limited research on young Black male youth usually focuses on identity, participation in programs, and socioeconomic levels. Further understanding is needed as to the factors which influence and impact Black male youths’ interests and actual participation …


Mindfulness Moments: Today And 4-Life Program For 4-H Camp Youth, Mariah Stollar Awan, Suzanna Windon Oct 2022

Mindfulness Moments: Today And 4-Life Program For 4-H Camp Youth, Mariah Stollar Awan, Suzanna Windon

Journal of Youth Development

This evaluation research addressed the gap in the stress management education literature related to short-term mindfulness programs for youth in non-formal educational settings. The Mindfulness Moments: Today and 4-Life program was adapted from existing curricula and delivered in Ohio and Pennsylvania during summer 2019. The purpose of the program was to help youth participants develop an understanding of the concept of mindfulness and instill a desire in them to apply mindfulness practices in their daily lives. Sixty-eight youth ages 10 to 18 participated in the program. We utilized a non-experimental study design, with a simple 1-group pretest posttest design. One …


Experience Journey Map: A New Experience Design Tool For Structuring Youth Activities, Gary Ellis, Jingxian Jiang, Darlene Locke Oct 2022

Experience Journey Map: A New Experience Design Tool For Structuring Youth Activities, Gary Ellis, Jingxian Jiang, Darlene Locke

Journal of Youth Development

We introduce a new experience design tool, an experience journey map, to assist youth professionals in planning engagement, immersion, and absorption activities. Experience journey maps are based on customer journey maps, which are widely used in business service design. This new approach highlights strategies for engendering deep structured experiences during the activity. An experience journey map is a matrix of columns and rows. Columns represent the sequence of activity stages. Rows are experience-structuring strategies derived from the theory of structured experience. These strategies include service performance strategies, deep structured experience strategies, and engagement, immersion, and absorption strategies. We present a …


Process Evaluations Of Positive Youth Development Programmes For Disadvantaged Young People: A Systematic Review, Grace Tidmarsh, Janice Thompson, Mary Quinton, Jennifer Cumming Oct 2022

Process Evaluations Of Positive Youth Development Programmes For Disadvantaged Young People: A Systematic Review, Grace Tidmarsh, Janice Thompson, Mary Quinton, Jennifer Cumming

Journal of Youth Development

This systematic review identified 10 process evaluation studies of positive youth development (PYD) programmes for disadvantaged young people, and aimed to assess the quality of reporting, methods used, and barriers and enablers to delivering programmes as intended. Four databases were searched: Web of Science, Psych INFO, Scopus, and Embase. Results indicated the methods used and quality of the process evaluations were highly varied. Numerous barriers (sessions feeling too much like school, lack of behaviour management skills, lack of funding, and logistical challenges) and enablers (collaboration with the local community, meeting young people’s needs, and communication) to delivering programmes as intended …


Challenges, Opportunities, And Adaptations Of A College Preparatory 4-H Youth Development Program During Covid-19, Emily M. Davis, Ann Sansing, Jasmine Harris-Speight, Mary Nelson Robertson, David Buys Oct 2022

Challenges, Opportunities, And Adaptations Of A College Preparatory 4-H Youth Development Program During Covid-19, Emily M. Davis, Ann Sansing, Jasmine Harris-Speight, Mary Nelson Robertson, David Buys

Journal of Youth Development

SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) has proliferated across the United States, and in the process, it has disrupted all sense of normalcy. Because adolescents are in a critical period for growth and development, youth are particularly susceptible to negative impacts of disruption from COVID-19. Therefore, sustaining youth development programs is essential to ensuring positive youth development occurs despite significant challenges. Unfortunately, the implementation of programs that maintain safety precautions can be challenging. Many programs have been forced to either cancel all activities or to transition program elements to a virtual format. Rural Medical and Science Scholars (RMSS) program administrative staff made the decision …

Maximizing Youth Leadership In Out-Of-School Time Programs: Six Best Practices From Youth Driven Spaces, Jamie Heng-Chieh Wu, Alison Shereda, Sara T. Stacy, John Kenneth Weiss, Megan Heintschel

Journal of Youth Development

This paper aims to provide strategies for youth-serving organizations to maximize opportunities for youth to develop leadership skills within the out-of-school time program context. The sample includes 5 youth-serving agencies who participated in the Youth Driven Spaces initiative led by a Midwest program. Data for this project included observations of youth–adult meetings, field notes from youths’ reflections on key model activities, and interviews with adult staff to identify common challenges and supportive solutions. We identified 6 emergent themes for supporting youth leadership: (a) engage youth in meetings, (b) create opportunities for youth to learn how to be leaders, (c) recognize …


Creating Opportunities For Young People: Statewide After-School Networks, Terri Ferinde Oct 2022

Creating Opportunities For Young People: Statewide After-School Networks, Terri Ferinde

Journal of Youth Development

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Congress made a once-in-a-generation investment in after- school and summer learning programs with the potential to provide supports and opportunities for children and youth across America. At the same time, after 2 decades of development, networks in all 50 states were poised to advise and support the investment in innovative quality programs. This thought leader piece explores impact of the statewide after-school networks, funded in part by the Charles Stewart Mott foundation, and how they increase access for millions of children and youth in quality after-school and summer learning programs. The piece makes the …


Lessons For 4-H Youth Member Recruitment And Retention From The First-Generation College Student Literature, Ashley Patricia Parra, Nicholas Morris, Jeremy Elliott-Engel Oct 2022

Lessons For 4-H Youth Member Recruitment And Retention From The First-Generation College Student Literature, Ashley Patricia Parra, Nicholas Morris, Jeremy Elliott-Engel

Journal of Youth Development

4-H is the largest positive youth development organization in the United States and is implemented by the land grant university system. To achieve program expansion, the century-old organization will need to recruit and retain millions more youth that reflect their increasingly diversified communities. Higher education has also worked to recruit and retain youth previously not engaged in college. This paper explores the hypothesis that there are lessons to be learned by the 4-H program from the literature on first-generation college students. Literature on risk factors and retention are presented for both first- generation college students and 4-H youth members. The …


Social Media Friends From Afterschool Are Associated With Positive Youth Development In Digital Settings, Lisette Desouza, Linda Charmaraman, Emily Vargas, Georgia Hall Oct 2022

Social Media Friends From Afterschool Are Associated With Positive Youth Development In Digital Settings, Lisette Desouza, Linda Charmaraman, Emily Vargas, Georgia Hall

Journal of Youth Development

Positive youth development has been extensively documented in contexts such as the family, school, and afterschool. Emerging theory and research indicate that digital contexts such as social media may also be venues through which young people develop skills and attributes associated with the 5 Cs model of positive youth development and thriving. This research attempted to understand if and how middle school youth’s in-person and online networks connect, and if they do connect, do these connections relate to engaging in beliefs and behaviors associated with PYD. Results suggest that in this sample, middle school youth include peers from afterschool in …

A Self-Assessment Approach To Understanding 4-H Professional Development Needs In The Northeast, Marycarmen Kunicki, Marissa Staffen, Jennifer Cushman, Rachel E. Lyons, Lisa Phelps, Kevin Sullivan

Journal of Youth Development

In 2017, the National 4-H professional research, knowledge, and competencies (PRKC) taxonomy was updated reflecting the current needs of 4-H youth development professionals. Knowledge and skill gaps of 4-H professionals need to be identified to optimize resource allocation for professional development on the state and regional level. We developed a web-based self-assessment of the PRKC tool using Qualtrics, that evaluated the core competencies across the 6 PRKC domains: (a) youth development; (b) youth program development; (c) volunteerism; (d) equity, access, and opportunity; (e) partnerships; and (f) organizational systems. The responses from 188 Extension 4-H professionals (approximately a quarter of the …

The Cryptococcus Neoformans Flc1 Homologue Controls Calcium Homeostasis And Confers Fungal Pathogenicity In The Infected Hosts, Piotr R. Stempinski, Kristie D. Goughenour, Lukas M. Du Plooy, J. Andrew Alspaugh, Michal A. Olszewski, Lukasz Kozubowski Sep 2022

The Cryptococcus Neoformans Flc1 Homologue Controls Calcium Homeostasis And Confers Fungal Pathogenicity In The Infected Hosts, Piotr R. Stempinski, Kristie D. Goughenour, Lukas M. Du Plooy, J. Andrew Alspaugh, Michal A. Olszewski, Lukasz Kozubowski

Open Access Publishing Fund

Cryptococcus neoformans, an opportunistic yeast pathogen, relies on a complex network of stress response pathways that allow for proliferation in the host. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, stress responses are regulated by integral membrane proteins containing a transient receptor potential (TRP) domain, including the flavin carrier protein 1 (Flc1), which regulates calcium homeostasis and flavin transport. Here, we report that deletion of C. neoformans FLC1 results in cytosolic calcium elevation and increased nuclear content of calcineurin-dependent transcription factor Crz1, which is associated with an aberrant cell wall chitin overaccumulation observed in the flc1Δ mutant. Absence of Flc1 or inhibition …
