A Nonlinear Multi-Population Behavioral Model To Assess The Roles Of Education Campaigns, Random Supply Of Aids, And Delayed Art Treatment In Hiv/Aids Epidemics, Divine Wanduku

Mathematical Sciences: Faculty Publications

The successful reduction in prevalence rates of HIV in many countries is attributed to control measures such as information and education campaigns (IEC), antiretroviral therapy (ART), and national, multinational and multilateral support providing offcial developmental assistance (ODAs) to combat HIV. However, control of HIV epidemics can be interrupted by limited random supply of ODAs, high poverty rates and low living standards. This study presents a stochastic HIV/AIDS model with treatment assessing the roles of IEC, the supply of ODAs and early treatment in HIV epidemics. The supply of ODAs is assessed via the availability of medical and financial resources leading …

Pathways To Stem Careers – Preliminary Findings Of A Possible Selves Intervention, Andrea Dawn Frazier

Georgia Educational Research Association Conference

Riegle-Crumb, King, and Irizarry (2019) indicate that African-American, LatinX, and White college first-year students declare an interest in STEM fields at roughly equivalent rates but African American and Latinx students are less likely to persist in attaining STEM degrees. Oyserman et al. (2011) further contextualize this discrepancy by noting that students might need help in implementing pathways from aspirations to academic outcomes. A multi-year intervention aimed at supporting undergraduate African American and Latinx students in STEM seeks to usher students along pathways towards STEM degrees by encouraging development of a community of practice and engagement in practical, concrete experiences that …

Relationships Among Text Type, Relatability, Students’ Reading Enthusiasm, And Comprehension, Madhavi T. Clark, Winifred C. Nweke

Georgia Educational Research Association Conference

Traditional English Language Arts instruction relies on the study of classical or canonical texts to teach students critical reading skills. These texts are hailed for their complexity, universal/ timeless themes, and established literary value. Yet, contemporary authors have argued that these texts are often far removed from students’ realities and do not reflect the diversity present in the classroom. Studies have also demonstrated that students find school content boring and irrelevant. This lack of enthusiasm, or display of interest, engagement, and excitement, is concerning to educators, as enthusiasm has been linked to students’ academic success and increased levels of intrinsic …

Self-Monitoring Among Secondary And Post-Secondary Students With Intellectual And Developmental Disabilities : Current Summary And Future Directions, Melvin S. Marsh, Stephanie M. Devine

Georgia Educational Research Association Conference

A preliminary search of the literature has revealed very few studies applicable to self-monitoring behaviours in college-aged individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), a technique that has been studied primarily in the elementary aged population. Learning how to self-monitor, whether it is self-monitoring behaviour or using it to learn to do tasks, is an important skill for one to become a success in college and during adulthood. This skill may allow some students to seek out and successfully complete further education and vocational training. Having individuals with disabilities able to join the workforce and advanced educational opportunities will increase …

The Impact Of Client Culture On Termination Of The Counseling Relationship, Colin F. Freeland

Georgia Educational Research Association Conference

Counseling is a process that evokes often evokes strong emotions in clients. When counseling is effective and rapport is established correctly, clients become attached to their counselors in deep and meaningful ways. The depth of attachment in this dynamic can lead to negative affect when approaching the termination stage of this relationship; these endings can also provide opportunities for clients to experience growth and transformation. Elements of grief can surface with the dissolution of relationships; further, cultural influences impact experiences of grieving and the continuation or finality of those bonds. Few studies have explored clients’ subjective experiences with the ending …
