Toward A Phenomenology Of Curriculum: The Work Of Max Van Manen And T. Tetsuo Aoki., Robert Kent Brown

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

In this study an attempt was made at understanding contemporary thought and application of phenomenological research to the field of curriculum and instruction. More specifically, it sought to identify a place and need for a methodology in curriculum research that exposes and clarifies the dynamics of pedagogy as a result of investigating the existential/ontological nature of pedagogical activity. In accomplishing this, the works of two major North American phenomenological curriculum theorists, T. Tetsuo Aoki and Max van Manen were examined. The work of these two significant contemporary curriculum theorists was used due to the international recognition their seminal phenomenologically oriented …

An Analysis Of Sequential Patterns Of Instruction In Piano Lessons., Donald Ray Speer

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

The purpose of this study was to investigate verbal behaviors of independent piano teachers in the setting of the private piano lesson. Twenty-five piano teachers from southeast Louisiana participated in the study. Teachers recorded the individual lessons of two students on audiotape. Verbatim transcripts were developed from a total of 47 recorded lessons. Transcripts were coded, identifying verbal behaviors with regard to components of sequential patterns established by Yarbrough and Price (1981, 1989). Verbal behaviors were analyzed for time spent in the categories of teacher presentation, student participation, and teacher reinforcement. Frequencies were obtained for the number of complete/correct, complete/incorrect, …

Using GPA categories, the sample population was selected through by stratified-random and systematic sampling. Gifted, special education and ESL students were excluded. Academic performance was measured by GPA and CTBS standardized scores. One way ANOVA with Tukey-Kramer, …

The Effect Of Counselor-Trainees' Mood-States On Counselor-Trainees' Affective State Empathy, Marguerite Clare Wyman Jan 1991

The Effect Of Counselor-Trainees' Mood-States On Counselor-Trainees' Affective State Empathy, Marguerite Clare Wyman

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This analogue study was an investigation of the effects of counselor-trainee mood-state upon counselor-trainee affective empathy and attribution of emotion. The sample consisted of 89 master's and doctoral level counselors-in-training enrolled in counselor-education programs at two midwestern universities. Students randomly participated in one of two mood-treatment conditions: Elated or Depressed. Moods were induced with the Velten Mood Induction task. Dependent variables of affective empathy and attribution of emotion were measured by the Affective Sensitivity Scale, Form E-80. Five research hypotheses were analyzed by five one-way analyses of variance. None of the research hypotheses (p $<$.05) yielded significant differences across conditions of mood-state. In a post hoc analysis, a significant difference between master's and doctoral level counselors-in-training was observed for the dependent variable of affective empathy. It was concluded that there do not appear to be relationships between (a) counselor mood-state and counselor affective empathy, or (b) counselor mood-state and counselor attribution of emotion. Implications for practice and further research are discussed.

The Use Of Prereferral Interventions: The Student Assistance., Joye Louise Mcleod Dec 1990

The Use Of Prereferral Interventions: The Student Assistance., Joye Louise Mcleod

Student Work

The national special education mandate, the Education for All Handicapped Children Act, also known as Public Law 94-142, was enacted by Congress in 1975. Since that time many politicians, education agencies, and taxpayers, as well as some educators, have become alarmed at what has been perceived as the overexpansion of special education services and their skyrocketing costs. Fiscal problems in education account in part for the growing concerns about the expansion of special education. Limited state and federal resources are available for funding special education. Taxpayer revolts, particularly regarding local property taxes, limit the taxation levies available to finance education.
