Integrating Literacy And Literature Within Lgbtq+-Based Curricula, John H. Bickford Oct 2020

Integrating Literacy And Literature Within Lgbtq+-Based Curricula, John H. Bickford

Together We RISE (Making Excellence Inclusive)

I report how children’s and young adult non-fiction and fiction books (mis)represent lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, transsexual, queer, questioning, intersex, asexual, ally, pansexual (hereafter, LGBTQ+) themes and people. I have published research on LGBTQ+ representations within books for elementary children as well as for high school students. I have also explored patterns of book challenges (challenges are registered complaints that have the intent to ban the books) by parents and citizens resistant to the inclusion of LGBTQ+ themes and people within literature in schools and local libraries. I use separate examples for high school and elementary by integrating literacy tasks …

Educator Self-Care, Resiliency, And Inclusion, Carolyn B. Jester, Peggy Woodall, Tammy Wrobbel

Together We RISE (Making Excellence Inclusive)

Acosta, J., Chandra, A., & Madrigano, J. (2017) stated that “Resilience is defined as the capacity of any dynamic system to anticipate and adapt successfully to difficulties. Individual resilience is the process of, capacity for, or outcome of adapting well in the face of adversity, trauma, tragedy, threats, or significant sources of stress.” The Seven streams of resilient behavior – community, competence, connections, commitment, communication, coordination, and consideration – act as a whole system response, as a practical theory that has the capacity to adapt and mold to changing data and shifting circumstances in the face of new technology according …

Incorporating Brain-Based Learning Into Virtual Career Support And Delivery, Angela Evans, Hannah Nicolaisen, Mildred Wallace

Together We RISE (Making Excellence Inclusive)

Career development is a life-long, continuous process with many complex factors and interplay. This is also reflected in what makes up the learner of today and the demands of the current pandemic on flexible learning styles and modes of delivery to prepare for success. An eclectic toolbox is needed to meet and adapt to one’s unique strengths, needs, abilities, and preferences via different modes of communication. A purposeful and enhanced focus on experiential learning strategies may be achieved by using pseudo-flipped career training and brain-based learning. Some tenets include emotional intelligence, cognitive behavior therapy, and stages of readiness which may …


Examining Systems To Support Students: A Holistic Approach To Support Students During Challenging Times, Jennifer Buchter, Cori More, Jennifer Stringfellow Oct 2020

Examining Systems To Support Students: A Holistic Approach To Support Students During Challenging Times, Jennifer Buchter, Cori More, Jennifer Stringfellow

Together We RISE (Making Excellence Inclusive)

Economic disparities have long been an issue negatively impacting students in higher education. The current Covid pandemic has exaggerated these discrepancies, leading to negative educational and well-being outcomes. If not addressed, these stressors could become barriers to student achievement and degree completion. Students may find themselves responsible for financial responsibilities not only for themselves, but also for their family. They may lose financial support from their family in addition to being required to provide caregiving responsibilities. Changes in living arrangements further contribute to disparities in educational experiences and outcomes. In addition to these concrete needs, stressors such as isolation, changes …

The Psychological Trauma Of Black Students And Black Professionals On Campus After The Murder Of George Floyd, Katherine Helm, Kristi Kelly, Tenille Allen

Together We RISE (Making Excellence Inclusive)

In this time of great racial unrest in American society, many Black students and professionals on campus are experiencing significant psychological trauma which can include feelings of: sadness, anger, irritability, emotional disconnection, problems concentrating, and diminished motivation triggered by the murder of George Floyd. Subsequent national racialized events and tensions have only increased these reactions. Black students and black professionals may be reporting emotional and physical exhaustion, feelings of not feeling safe (physically and emotionally), and a lingering anger and hopelessness, which has significant consequences for academic and career success. This is one of the most important social justice issues …


Assessing Motivation And Utilizing Motivational Interviewing In Introductory College Biology For Improved Student Success, William Martin Oct 2020

Assessing Motivation And Utilizing Motivational Interviewing In Introductory College Biology For Improved Student Success, William Martin

Together We RISE (Making Excellence Inclusive)

Student motivation, metacognition and engagement are strong predictors of academic success in the undergraduate biology classroom. Implementation of diverse active learning strategies results in increased student engagement and improved student performance. Instructors direct students on behaviors aimed to promote self-reflection and self-efficacy towards academic success yet see varying follow-through from students. This research study assesses motivation in students in two separate but parallel, introductory biology courses required for majors. Students in one course, with traditionally high attrition and serving students from diverse majors, will be compared to a second with low historical attrition and serving a single pre-professional program at …
