'Divertual' Learning In Education Leadership: Implications Of Teaching Cultural Diversity Online Vs. Face To Face, Carolyn Ridenour, A. Llewellyn Simmons, Timothy J. Ilg, A. William Place Jan 2005

'Divertual' Learning In Education Leadership: Implications Of Teaching Cultural Diversity Online Vs. Face To Face, Carolyn Ridenour, A. Llewellyn Simmons, Timothy J. Ilg, A. William Place

Educational Leadership Faculty Publications

What are the consequences of this teaching-learning situation when graduate students in a Department of Educational Leadership are enrolled in a course on cultural diversity? Might the words on the computer screen be completely unrelated to the humanity, personality, style, interpersonal behaviors, and dispositions of the student writing them, as Menand suggests? Or, might the detachment provide a security in which the most honest and unadulterated discourse can be shared between teacher and students, as some proponents hope? In this chapter we explore responses to this dilemma. We attempt to capture this situation in our label: "divertual learning," a neologism …


Evolution Of The School District Superintendent Position, Theodore J. Kowalski Jan 2005

Evolution Of The School District Superintendent Position, Theodore J. Kowalski

Educational Leadership Faculty Publications

Clearly, no issue is currently more crucial to the future of the position of school district superintendent than the battle being fought over professional preparation and state licensing. The intent of licensing professionals is to protect society and not the licensee. Consequently, a decision to deregulate a profession should not be made solely in political arenas in which self- and group interests are more likely to outweigh societal interests. This chapter is grounded in the belief that persons within a profession, regardless of their personal views, have a responsibility to ensure that policy debates of this magnitude will be objective …

Differences In Affective Learning And Perceived Immediacy Of Instructor Between Traditional College Classrooms And Classrooms Incorporating Student Use Of Computer-Mediated Communication, Lori Zakel

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this quasi-experimental study was to determine whether community college students enrolled in Interpersonal Communication who utilize the technological aid of computer-mediated communication in the classroom have different perceptions of their affective learning and their instructor's immediacy than do students who do not utilize computer-mediated communication in the classroom. The methodology used to address the issue was a post test-only control group design, with students completing the affective learning scale, the nonverbal immediacy scale, and the verbal immediacy scale. Results showed no significant differences were found between the treatment and control groups on either immediacy scale (verbal or …

The Efficacy Of Parent-Facilitated Phonological Awareness Tutoring For Kindergartners At-Risk For Reading Difficulties, Michelle J. Giguere Jan 2005

The Efficacy Of Parent-Facilitated Phonological Awareness Tutoring For Kindergartners At-Risk For Reading Difficulties, Michelle J. Giguere

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

In the fall of 2004 Kindergarten students in a southwestern Ohio elementary school were screened for early literacy skills using the Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills (DIBELS). Those parents whose children scored below the 20th percentile on initial sound fluency— determined to be at-risk for reading difficulties—were offered training on how to tutor their children. Parents (N=8) were taught games and activities from Phonemic Awareness in Young Children: A Classroom Curriculum by Marilyn Adams (1998). Those children considered at-risk whose parents chose not to participate formed the comparison group (N=7). The study used the logic of a multiple …

Emotional And Attitudinal Responses To Remote Versus Co-Located Usability Testing, Michael J. Goliber Jan 2005

Emotional And Attitudinal Responses To Remote Versus Co-Located Usability Testing, Michael J. Goliber

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Current usability testing is often conducted via face-to-face interactions. This method can be costly, both in terms of timelines and budget. However, remote usability testing has been shown to be a viable alternative, in that performance scores have been shown to be quite similar to face-to-face methods. Although performance appears similar, remote usability testing may present challenges that threaten the validity and reliability of usability testing results. Rather than focusing on the performance of users in remote versus co-located conditions, the proposed study investigates the emotional and attitudinal responses of users engaged in software usability tests. The purpose of this …

Watch What You're Watching Together: The Complicated Relationship Between Family Coviewing And Family Functioning, Kymberly Booth Higgs Jan 2005

Watch What You're Watching Together: The Complicated Relationship Between Family Coviewing And Family Functioning, Kymberly Booth Higgs

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

This quantitative study examines a potential relationship between viewing television together as a family and family functioning. About 150 families from California, Missouri and Ohio were asked to report the amount of time they spent viewing television together (coviewing) as well as the specific programs they were likely to view as a family. The families also completed the self-report McMaster Family Assessment Device, which measures five dimensions of family functioning (communication, roles, affective involvement, behavior control and overall general functioning). Statistical analysis revealed inverse relationships between the amount of time spent coviewing and family communication, affective involvement (i.e., cohesion) and …
