Cognitive And Affective Domain Learning Assessment Choices, Ronald Clark, Joseph Price Feb 2016

Cognitive And Affective Domain Learning Assessment Choices, Ronald Clark, Joseph Price

Bollinger-Rosado Teaching & Learning Effectiveness Symposium Proceedings

Assessing university student learning is both an academic skill and an art form, with Bloom's Taxonomy of the cognitive domain perhaps the preeminent schema in use today. This research study sought to find out if Embry-Riddle faculty and students were aware of Bloom's affective domain, and to assess the degree of satisfaction with current student learning assessment. Using a descriptive research model, 61 faculty and students were surveyed and three classes were provided with an open model of assessment. The results indicated that both faculty and students were satisfied with ERAU student learning assessment, learned more productively with student-decided assessments, …

The Logan River, an integral part of the greater Bear River ecosystem, originates within the Bear River Mountains in the headwaters of Logan Canyon and terminates at its confluence with the Little Bear River in Cutler Reservoir.

The Promises And Perils Of Evidence-Based Corrections, Cecelia Klingele Feb 2016

The Promises And Perils Of Evidence-Based Corrections, Cecelia Klingele

Notre Dame Law Review

Public beliefs about the best way to respond to crime change over time, and have been doing so at a rapid pace in recent years. After more than forty years of ever more severe penal policies, the punitive sentiment that fueled the growth of mass incarceration in the United States appears to be softening. Across the country, prison growth has slowed and, in some places, has even reversed. Many new laws and policies have enabled this change. The most prominent of these implement or reflect what have been called “evidence-based practices” designed to reduce prison populations and their associated fiscal …


Surviving The Conflict Of Self- Inflicted Organizational Crises, Andrew S. Pyle Feb 2016

Surviving The Conflict Of Self- Inflicted Organizational Crises, Andrew S. Pyle

Publications

Social media platforms provide channels for both individuals and organizations to engage with global audiences. A successful social media message can reach millions, and shape the way publics view a particular person, group, or cause. As organizations become more engaged with publics through social media platforms, a new area of organizational risk has also developed. It is possible for an organization to create a self-inflicted crisis through the unintentional transmission of a poorly worded or ill-conceived social media message. This type of self-induced crisis event creates organizational conflict that must be managed quickly. This chapter explores three cases of organizational …

Police Culture In The Twenty-First Century: A Critique Of The President's Task Force's Final Report, Julian A. Cook Iii

Notre Dame Law Review Reflection

In response to a series of events involving police-citizen encounters, including those in Ferguson, Missouri, and Staten Island, New York, that have strained relations between law enforcement and the communities (primarily minority) that they serve, President Barack Obama established a task force charged with developing a set of recommendations designed to improve police practices and enhance public trust. Headed by Charles Ramsey, Commissioner of the Philadelphia Police Department, and Laurie Robinson, former Assistant Attorney General for the U.S. Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs, and currently a Professor of Criminology, Law, and Society at George Mason University, the eleven-member …

Teaching Domestic Violence In The New Millennium: Intersectionality As A Framework For Social Change, Krista Mcqueeney Feb 2016

Teaching Domestic Violence In The New Millennium: Intersectionality As A Framework For Social Change, Krista Mcqueeney

Criminology Faculty Publications

This article describes an intersectional approach to teaching about domestic violence (DV), which aims to empower students as critical thinkers and agents of change by merging theory, service learning, self-reflection, and activism. Three intersectional strategies and techniques for teaching about DV are discussed: promoting difference-consciousness, complicating gender-only power frameworks, and organizing for change. The author argues that to empower future generations to end violence, educators should put intersectionality into action through their use of scholarship, teaching methods, and pedagogical authority. Finally, the benefits and challenges of intersectional pedagogy for social justice education are considered.

From Coercion To Consent?: Governing The Formerly Incarcerated In The 21st Century United States, Karen G. Williams Feb 2016

From Coercion To Consent?: Governing The Formerly Incarcerated In The 21st Century United States, Karen G. Williams

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

With over 650,000 incarcerated people returning to their home communities each year, prisoner reentry reform has recently become as an important strand of penal policy innovation intended to address the barriers that former offenders face. Through ethnographic research in four correctional institutions in the Midwest, I trace the use of evidence-based practices and policies as they relate to prisoner reentry and risk reduction. This dissertation intervenes in the debates on mass incarceration and prisoner reentry and offers insights on how evidence-based practices and policies are being mobilized to mitigate the costs of mass incarceration. I show how the scientization of …

Amnesty Now! Ending Prison Overcrowding Through A Categorical Use Of The Pardon Power, Jonathan Simon Feb 2016

Amnesty Now! Ending Prison Overcrowding Through A Categorical Use Of The Pardon Power, Jonathan Simon

University of Miami Law Review

America’s practice of mass incarceration is coming under growing criticism as fiscally unsustainable and morally indefensible. Chronic overcrowding of prisons, a problem that epitomizes the destructive and unlawful core of mass incarceration, now afflicts the federal prison system and nearly half the states. Actual reforms, however, like President Obama’s recent grant of clemency to forty-six federal prisoners serving long drug sentences for non-violent conduct, or recent one-off sentencing reforms aimed at preventing imprisonment for minor drug or property crimes, are manifestly insufficient to end mass incarceration, or even the chronic overcrowding that represents its most degrading and destructive aspect. The …
