O Homer, Where Art Thou?: Teaching The Iliad And The Odyssey Through Popular Culture, Mallory Young Nov 2024

O Homer, Where Art Thou?: Teaching The Iliad And The Odyssey Through Popular Culture, Mallory Young

Dialogue: The Interdisciplinary Journal of Popular Culture and Pedagogy

Like so many of my academic colleagues, I spend an inordinate amount of time lamenting our students’ lack of engagement, discipline, and preparation. The problems are naturally exacerbated when the subject is literature and the literature in question is, by its nature, far removed in time and place from students’ daily lives. At the same time, requirements to study literature have become compressed, if not eliminated entirely. Ancient Greek works, in particular, seem to pose special problems for unmotivated or unprepared students. As our students become less likely to have a prior context from which to approach ancient texts, the …

Wounds That Will Not Heal: Heroism And Innocence In Shane And The Iliad, Carl A. Rubino Nov 2024

Wounds That Will Not Heal: Heroism And Innocence In Shane And The Iliad, Carl A. Rubino

Dialogue: The Interdisciplinary Journal of Popular Culture and Pedagogy

George Stevens’ film Shane, which dates from 1953, remains an especially successful version of the heroic paradigm that is established in Homer’s Iliad. Just as Achilles, the hero of Homer’s poem, considers abandoning the war at Troy in favor of a long and uneventful life at home, the film’s mysterious hero makes a futile attempt to abandon his violent past for a “normal life” as an ordinary farmer in the American west.

Dr. Nelson On His Passion For Finding The Joy In Family, Emily Pomeroy Nov 2024

Dr. Nelson On His Passion For Finding The Joy In Family, Emily Pomeroy

Marriott Student Review

Recently, “Measuring Success Right,” the official English podcast from the Marriott Student Review, had the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Larry Nelson. Dr. Nelson is a professor at BYU and actively studies emerging adulthood. He believes that the recent changes we have seen in this age group can be attributed to delayed marriage and graduation ages. Additionally, young adults today coin adulthood more as how they handle decisions and self-sufficiency than landing a successful career or being married. Often, in the past, young adults would quickly move to marriage or careers, which gave structure and accountability to their lives.

Comparing Secco Recitative Accompaniment By Contemporary Cellists And Cellists In The 19th Century: A Study Of Social And Cultural Assumptions, Hilary K. Metzger Nov 2024

Comparing Secco Recitative Accompaniment By Contemporary Cellists And Cellists In The 19th Century: A Study Of Social And Cultural Assumptions, Hilary K. Metzger

Performance Practice Review

This article documents the behavior of current professional continuo cellists who accompany secco recitatives, addressing such issues as instrumentation, seating plans, harmonic realization, rehearsal protocol, leadership roles, critical feedback and (self)-evaluation. It summarizes and analyses the results of a questionnaire launched in the Spring of 2020 and answered by 105 professional continuo playing cellists around the world. By comparing the accompaniment practice of current continuo cellists to the performance practice of cellists who accompanied secco recitatives in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, this analysis brings to light the cultural and sociological factors that influence our changing …

Examining The Use Of Embedded Generative Strategies With Graphic Organizers To Improve Science Achievement Of Students With Learning Disabilities, Gamze Karaer, Macid A. Melekoglu, Brian Hand Nov 2024

Examining The Use Of Embedded Generative Strategies With Graphic Organizers To Improve Science Achievement Of Students With Learning Disabilities, Gamze Karaer, Macid A. Melekoglu, Brian Hand

Journal of Science Education for Students with Disabilities

Students with learning disabilities have difficulty in science literacy because of the extensive amount of abstract concepts in comprehending science content. An adapted alternating treatments design with an extended baseline was used to compare the effectiveness and efficiency of graphic organizers (GOs) enhanced with predicting-observing-explaining (POE) (Module-I) and GOs without POE (Module-II) on science achievement of six middle school students with learning disabilities. Results indicated that both procedures were effective to improve performance on all dependent variables for all participants. However, the result of efficiency data showed that Module-I seemed to be more efficient across four students in terms of …
