Investigation Of The Healing Process After Sexual Assault: A Dual Case Study, Kirsten B. Harrell Jan 1994

Investigation Of The Healing Process After Sexual Assault: A Dual Case Study, Kirsten B. Harrell

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

A dual case study was conducted to explore the similarities and differences between the assault and post-assault experiences of fraternal twin sisters, Kathy and Barb, who were abducted and sexually assaulted. A series of in-depth interviews was conducted to obtain the main data set. A number o f tests and questionnaires were used to provide additional information on the personalities, coping styles, and reactions to the assault of these two women. A critical difference between the two women's healing processes emerged in the way in which each cycled through confrontation and inhibition of their thoughts and feelings about the assault. …

The Basic Course In Communication Theory: A Shift In Emphasis, Warren Sandmann Jan 1994

The Basic Course In Communication Theory: A Shift In Emphasis, Warren Sandmann

Basic Communication Course Annual

This essay calls for a change in how the introductory communication theory course is taught. Standard models and texts are examined, described and critiqued. The standard model of communication theory depicts theory as a body of knowledge to be studied and applied to specific situations. This one dominant paradigm of communication theory constrains other possible approaches to understanding and teaching communication theory. The remainder of the essay offers a rationale for a shift in the teaching of communication theory, and directions for preliminary changes in the teaching of communication theory.

Using Interactive Video Instruction To Enhance Public Speaking Instruction, Michael W. Cronin, William R. Kennan

Basic Communication Course Annual

This article discusses the nature of interactive video instruction (IVI) and the potential benefits of IVI applications in supplementing instruction in the basic communication course. It describes the IVI programs in oral communication that are currently available, the equipment required to institute IVI, and details possible applications of IVI for instructors, students, and educational institutions.


Interactive Video Instruction For Teaching Organizational Techniques In Public Speaking, Michael W. Cronin Jan 1994

Interactive Video Instruction For Teaching Organizational Techniques In Public Speaking, Michael W. Cronin

Basic Communication Course Annual

This article describes two interactive videodisc instructional programs for teaching organizational techniques in public speaking and reports the assessment of these programs. Formative evaluations indicate that students enjoyed the level III interactive video instruction (IVI). One-way analyses of variance indicated that students receiving IVI in "Constructing Speaking Outlines" (study 1) or "Developing Key Ideas" (study 2) achieved significantly higher recall/application test scores than did students in the control group in the respective study. Implications for the use of these IVI programs in supplementing traditional public speaking instruction are discussed.


Literacy Enhancement And Writing Across The Curriculum: A Motivational Addendum, L. Brooks Hill, Sandra L. Ragan Jan 1994

Literacy Enhancement And Writing Across The Curriculum: A Motivational Addendum, L. Brooks Hill, Sandra L. Ragan

Basic Communication Course Annual

This "thought piece" supplements the preceding article with complementary information drawn from a national literacy project underwritten by the Ford Foundation. This project attempted to persuade teachers in all disciplines to become more proficient in the use of written exercises and to encourage an expanded conception of literacy as an essential cornerstone of education. As a part of the writing-across-the curriculum (WAC) efforts, this extensive project helped to organize these efforts by identifying the obstacles to enhanced literacy, specifying innumerable techniques for use in diverse contexts, and motivating faculty to intensify their work on this dimension of any curriculum. This …

Instructional Resource Innovations For The Introductory Communication Course, Craig Newburger

Basic Communication Course Annual

The following four articles represent the proceedings of an SCA Seminar held at the New Orleans convention: "Instructional Resource Innovations for the Introductory Communication Course." These monographs detail four multi-media resource areas that introductory communication course directors can consider: Storytelling — the student-as-medium (Pamela Cooper); Visualization — the student-as-medium (Joe Ayres and Debbie M. Ayres); Self-confrontation — applications involving the use of videotape with public speaking instruction (Craig Newburger, Linda Brannon, and Arlie Daniel); and Computer-Mediated-Communication (Gerald M. Santoro and Gerald M. Phillips).

A Global Paradigm Shattered: The Jurisdictional Nihilism Of The Supreme Court’S Abduction Decision In Alvarez-Machain, Andrew L. Strauss Jan 1994

A Global Paradigm Shattered: The Jurisdictional Nihilism Of The Supreme Court’S Abduction Decision In Alvarez-Machain, Andrew L. Strauss

School of Law Faculty Publications

In the United States v. Alvarez Machain, the United States Supreme Court held that the United States could exercise criminal jurisdiction over a Mexican doctor who was abducted by agents of the American government from his office in Mexico and transported to the United States. As the Court's first international law decision after the end of the cold war, this case set the stage for how it would approach the domestic application of international law in the post cold war era. Despite the importance of the case, the Supreme Court failed to articulate the conceptual understanding of the relationship between …

Shemuel Hugo Bergman: Philosopher And Believer (1883-1975), Eric L. Friedland Dec 1993

Shemuel Hugo Bergman: Philosopher And Believer (1883-1975), Eric L. Friedland

University of Dayton Review

What might be considered deceptive advertising stems from chronic forgetfulness. My topic will not be, as previously announced, "Martin Buber, Alive in Dayton." Rather I'd like very much to introduce you to a Jewish religious thinker who was first a key disciple and then a close friend and confidant of Martin Buber and at the same time very much his own person. He has had a profound influence on the way I think and have tried to conduct my life. Shemuel Hugo Bergman is his name. Outside of Israel or Europe, Bergman is not well known, including in the American …


Hungary’S Aged: Social Policy In A Post-Communist State, Peter Agocs, Sandor Agocs Dec 1993

Hungary’S Aged: Social Policy In A Post-Communist State, Peter Agocs, Sandor Agocs

University of Dayton Review

"There are," in the words of one Hungarian commentator, "places where growing old is worthwhile, and there are places where it's not. Hungary definitely belongs in the latter category." One in four Hungarians is of retirement age: The retired number 2.7 million in all, in a country of 10.4 million people in 1991. This group has suffered terribly from the economic decline and dislocation that precipitated the fall of the Communist regime and now plagues the country's new democratic government. The dislocation they have experienced is not only economic but also psychological. For years the Communist regime adopted a paternalistic …


Walker Percy And Jacques Ellul: Technique And The Humiliated Word, Bill Jenkins Dec 1993

Walker Percy And Jacques Ellul: Technique And The Humiliated Word, Bill Jenkins

University of Dayton Review

The modern technological society in which bored, sexually neurotic, autonomous individuals secretly relish news of disasters is a society enmeshed with the frustrations of people who are unable to make technology live up to its promises. The description of these frustrations and their results constitutes a large portion of Walker Percy's writings. Regardless of current debates about scientific paradigms, Postmodernism, late Capitalism, and so forth, most ordinary people and many technologists continue to get along in life by understanding and justifying their actions according to the "powerful credentials of science and technology" (Lost in the Cosmos 113).
