What Kind Of Possibilities Do We Have?: Educators’ Complex Images Of Latino Immigrant Students And Families, H. James Mclaughlin, Stacie Pettit Apr 2014

What Kind Of Possibilities Do We Have?: Educators’ Complex Images Of Latino Immigrant Students And Families, H. James Mclaughlin, Stacie Pettit

Journal of Contemporary Research in Education

The Latino population in the United States is on the rise, but historically, Latino graduation rates have been low. Many educators lack sufficient intercultural preparation, and therefore, teachers may tend to blame student failure on cultural and familial deficiencies. In this study, we elicited educators’ perceptions of Latino students and the students’ families through 10 focus group interviews at 6 target schools (4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school). Findings include contradictory views of students’ and families’ attitudes towards education, and consistently negative views of students’ and families’ educational backgrounds. Latino families were seen as close, caring, …


An Investigation Of Attitudes And Perceptions Toward Inclusion: Comparing Preservice Teachers To First Year Teachers, Nancy Douglas, Jerilou Moore, Kevin Stoltz Apr 2014

An Investigation Of Attitudes And Perceptions Toward Inclusion: Comparing Preservice Teachers To First Year Teachers, Nancy Douglas, Jerilou Moore, Kevin Stoltz

Journal of Contemporary Research in Education

Over the last decade, the federally mandated “push” for full inclusion has changed the dynamics of general education classrooms to the extent that teachers no longer feel adequately prepared to teach. Teacher preparation programs are vested with the responsibility to prepare preservice teachers so they can provide a learning environment that meets the federal mandate of Least Restrictive Environment (LRE). A lack of preparation may affect the pre-service teachers’ attitude and perception of students with disabilities in a general education classroom. The purpose of this quantitative cross-sectional study was to explore preservice and first year teacher beliefs about preparation concerning …


Student Insubordination, Discipline And Safety Initiatives In Urban Schools, Seunghee Han Apr 2014

Student Insubordination, Discipline And Safety Initiatives In Urban Schools, Seunghee Han

Journal of Contemporary Research in Education

This study examines school factors associated with student insubordination in urban schools. Using data from 1,493 public schools (School Survey on Crime and Safety 2007-2008), multivariate regression analyses show that schools with more disadvantaged students (e.g., ethnic minority students, underachievers, and special education students) tend to have more insubordination incidents after controlling for violence incidents and school safety initiatives. Among school factors, perceived school value and parental involvement are consistently and negatively associated with both the actual number of incidents and principals’ perception of insubordination. Teacher training programs and student-oriented crime prevention programs are associated differently with each type of …


The Relationship Between Workaholism Tendencies And Stage Of Development In A K-12 Teacher Population, Rebekah Reysen, S. Ryan Niemeyer, Amanda Winburn, Ann Monroe Apr 2014

The Relationship Between Workaholism Tendencies And Stage Of Development In A K-12 Teacher Population, Rebekah Reysen, S. Ryan Niemeyer, Amanda Winburn, Ann Monroe

Journal of Contemporary Research in Education

Workaholism has been defined as a compulsive devotion to work that significantly impairs other areas of an individual’s life (Selinger, 2007). Since this disorder was first conceptualized by Oates (1971), few articles have been published on the nature of workaholism tendencies for workers employed in specific occupations. A Mississippi sample was utilized for this study, for the purpose of exploring workaholism tendencies in a kindergarten through 12th grade (K-12) teacher population. Results indicate that elementary school teachers in particular may exhibit workaholism tendencies. Additionally, beginning teachers, those with more than 10 years of teaching experience, and those who teach in …
