Making Evaluation Reports Effective Interventions For Change, Michael A. Harvey Sep 2019

Making Evaluation Reports Effective Interventions For Change, Michael A. Harvey

JADARA

Despite recent advances in assessing Deaf persons, the rate of client compliance for following recommendations remains low. The assessment process often affects the eco-system of a client so that the system nullifies the impact of the assessment report; the process of assessment becomes an intervention. Since assessment is synonymous with intervention, it would be beneficial for diagnosticians to use intervention techniques purposefully. Some intervention guidelines are to: (1) identify the persons who comprise the client's meaningful system and their patterns of relationships; (2) formulate a tentative systemic diagnosis of the presenting problem, from which the systemic effects of the evaluation …

Art Therapy For Trauma Survivors, Mercedes Ter Maat

Faculty Proceedings, Presentations, Speeches and Lectures

Interested in incorporating art-making into your clinical practice with trauma survivors? This presentation addresses the power of art in recalling the traumatic event and accessing trauma-related emotions in a non-threatening way. Learn how art assists trauma survivors in identifying, expressing, and containing emotions by engaging in a process that creates a safe distance from painful feelings while providing a concrete vehicle to explore potentially volatile emotions. Artwork will be shown to illustrate this process.


Wildlife In Parks And Communities: Institutionalizing Wildlife Conservation In Park Systems Through Municipal-Wide Planning Efforts, John J. Pipoly Iii, Lajuan Tucker, Patrick Fitzgerald, Scott Gilmore Sep 2019

Wildlife In Parks And Communities: Institutionalizing Wildlife Conservation In Park Systems Through Municipal-Wide Planning Efforts, John J. Pipoly Iii, Lajuan Tucker, Patrick Fitzgerald, Scott Gilmore

Marine & Environmental Sciences Faculty Proceedings, Presentations, Speeches, Lectures

Wildlife populations are declining in the United States. As development increases, local parks and natural areas often become safe-havens for wildlife, including birds, pollinators and small mammals. Creeks, rights-of-way, roadsides and even private, commercial and public landscapes can create corridors for wildlife in urban and suburban areas, helping wildlife survive and minimizing human-wildlife conflicts. While many park departments and municipalities have some nature or wildlife programs at nature centers and public parks or manage some properties as natural areas, most do not integrate best practices for managing wildlife into park and recreation master plans or municipalwide sustainability, green infrastructure or …


A Toolkit For Managing The Ee (Environmental Education) And Esd (Education For Sustainable Development) Continuum, Attiyya Atkins, John J. Pipoly Iii Sep 2019

A Toolkit For Managing The Ee (Environmental Education) And Esd (Education For Sustainable Development) Continuum, Attiyya Atkins, John J. Pipoly Iii

Marine & Environmental Sciences Faculty Proceedings, Presentations, Speeches, Lectures

Environmental Education (EE) and Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) represent extremes of a global continuum. EE stresses awareness of process about, from and for the environment (Vrasidas 2007). ESD is defined as education empowering communities to acquire best management practices engendering human, social, economic and natural sustainability (UNESCO 2012) and developing their resilience despite environmental changes (Fastenrath et al. 2019). ESD is a critical component of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (UN 2012), which grew from the Millennium Development Goals (UN 2000). Each park agency should develop research-based educational programs that address both EE and ESD. The ESD must promote …

Conflict Between Religious Beliefs And Sexuality: An Autoethnography, Carlos E. Gerena Sep 2019

Conflict Between Religious Beliefs And Sexuality: An Autoethnography, Carlos E. Gerena

The Qualitative Report

Despite the shift in attitudes in religious institutions toward homosexuals in the United States, there are some religions that continue to view same-sex behavior as a deviant and damning sin. For many, religious beliefs and values provide meaning and impact personal identity. Using autoethnography, I will explicate my own experiences with religious institutions and the ongoing conflict between religious beliefs and sexuality. I will discuss messages received from the Pentecostal church, family, and Latino community, and how these messages influenced my human development and emotional well-being. I show that internalization of the principles taught by the Pentecostal Church triggered a …


Sustaining Learning About Qualitative Inquiry: A Book Review On The Craft Of Qualitative Research - A Handbook, Umair Majid Sep 2019

Sustaining Learning About Qualitative Inquiry: A Book Review On The Craft Of Qualitative Research - A Handbook, Umair Majid

The Qualitative Report

There are only a handful of articles, books, tools, and resources that are truly accessible to the novice qualitative investigator. The literature contains reams of resources that aid researchers to launch the qualitative learning process. However, there are few opportunities to develop the depth, prowess, and creativity needed to sustain lifelong learning. The Craft of Qualitative Research: A Handbook by Kleinknecht, van den Scott, and Sanders is one resource that assists researchers to achieve this objective. Conceptualized as a “handbook,” this book is meant to be used throughout research projects and professional careers. The practice of qualitative inquiry serves as …


A Statutory Remedy For Negligent Hiring In Deafness Rehabilitation, William P. Mccrone, Bruce A. Payette Sep 2019

A Statutory Remedy For Negligent Hiring In Deafness Rehabilitation, William P. Mccrone, Bruce A. Payette

JADARA

Given the modest gains in hiring well qualified deafness rehabilitation personnel in Vocational Rehabilitation, is it time to recognize that negligent hiring in deafness rehabilitation is a subtle form of discrimination against deaf and multiply handicapped deaf VR applicants? Amendments to the Rehabilitation Act are recommended to remedy the negligent hiring practices of some VR Rehabilitation of Deaf Clients (Schein, 1980) agencies that further disable deaf clients by hiring rehabilitation personnel who lack the skills to work effectively with deaf and multiply handicapped people.

Educational Interpreter Services For Hearing-Impaired Students: Provider And Consumer Disagreements, Robert K. Rittenhouse, Catherine H. Rahn, Larry E. Morreau Sep 2019

Educational Interpreter Services For Hearing-Impaired Students: Provider And Consumer Disagreements, Robert K. Rittenhouse, Catherine H. Rahn, Larry E. Morreau

JADARA

Thirteen supervisors of educational programs for hearing-impaired students completed an assessment designed to determine the need for educational interpreters in a midwestern state and how well it was being met. The results suggested that the trend toward the integration of hearing-impaired students in to regular programs continues and that, with the higher incidence of integration, there is an associated unmet need for educational interpreters. Nine supervisors, 24 teachers, 27 interpreters and 18 hearing-impaired college students rated the characteristics and skills of interpreters which they perceived to be most important. Significant differences existed between and within groups in the characteristics and …


Gender Differences On The Wais-R Performance Scale With Young Deaf Adults, Allan Ensor, Leadelle Phelps Sep 2019

Gender Differences On The Wais-R Performance Scale With Young Deaf Adults, Allan Ensor, Leadelle Phelps

JADARA

The WAIS-R Performance Scale was administered to185 hearing-impaired young adults (80 females and 105 males) having a mean age of 18.6 years (SD .97). All participants were considered to have a prelingual hearing loss that ranged from moderate to profound. The five sub-tests and performance IQ (PIQ) were evaluated by t-test computations and principal factor analyses. The only significant mean score difference occurred with the Digit Symbol subtest where the female subjects outperformed their male counter parts by a mean difference of 1.76 points (t=-4.76, p < .0001). Subtest inter-correlational results suggest that adult deaf males demonstrated better spatial analysis and synthesis skills while the females performed better at visual-motor coordination and speed tasks. A principal factor analysis procedure yielded only one factor for each sex. The high degree of factorial similarity between the male and female samples indicated that the underlying construct being measured by the WAIS-R Performance subtests does not differ by gender.

Preparing Researchers To Conduct Interdisciplinary, Multi-Method Qualitative Research, Kathryn Roulston Sep 2019

Preparing Researchers To Conduct Interdisciplinary, Multi-Method Qualitative Research, Kathryn Roulston

The Qualitative Report

In this paper I outline ideas for how qualitative research methods might be taught in ways that value difference, promote dialogue, and encourage graduates to engage actively in their disciplines to promote the benefits of qualitative inquiry, locally, nationally and globally. I argue for approaches to teach qualitative inquiry in ways that value (1) interdisciplinarity, in that teaching draws on multiple epistemologies and theoretical approaches to inquiry developed across disciplines; (2) diversity in methodological approaches, in that teaching explores multiple methods to respond to research questions that are continually subject to revision, innovation, and critical analysis; and (3) the knowledge …
