Feedback Menus: Expanding Student Choice In Response To Writing, Andrew Testa Apr 2026

Feedback Menus: Expanding Student Choice In Response To Writing, Andrew Testa

Journal of Response to Writing

This Teaching Tip introduces the Feedback Menu, a flexible protocol designed to promote student agency and feedback literacy in writing instruction. By allowing students to select the focus and mode of feedback they receive, the Menu helps tailor response to individual learning needs and supports meaningful revision at any stage of the composition process. The protocol is adaptable for use in first-year composition, professional writing, multilingual, and upper-division courses, in both face-to-face and online formats. Concrete implementation steps, sample menu items, and considerations for different teaching contexts are provided.


More Than Treating Errors: Bridging The Gaps And Expanding The Agenda For Scholarship On Teacher Written Feedback For L2 Writers, Lynn Goldstein, Robert Kohls Apr 2026

More Than Treating Errors: Bridging The Gaps And Expanding The Agenda For Scholarship On Teacher Written Feedback For L2 Writers, Lynn Goldstein, Robert Kohls

Journal of Response to Writing

Teacher written feedback is a central area of L2 scholarship and writing teacher education yet considerable research has focused on written corrective feedback (WCF) with considerably less attention paid to discourse-level (DLF) teacher written feedback. Our article identifies the gaps in the current teacher written feedback scholarship, explains why these gaps are problematic, and provides detailed recommendations for an agenda that examines teacher DLF and students’ use of this feedback. Our goal is to encourage scholars to explore new avenues of research that better take into account what writing “is” and “does” as well as take into account the linguistically …


Composing In Relation: Rethinking Multimodal Feedback As Rhetorical Design, Angela Laflen Apr 2026

Composing In Relation: Rethinking Multimodal Feedback As Rhetorical Design, Angela Laflen

Journal of Response to Writing

This qualitative study investigates how writing instructors compose feedback in multimodal digital environments, focusing on the rhetorical and relational dimensions of their design choices. Drawing on social semiotics and multimodal composition theory, the study analyzes feedback artifacts, instructor interviews, and student surveys from six first-year writing courses. Findings reveal that instructors engage in complex feedback design work across communication modes, often without formal training or shared frameworks. Instructors tended to default to text-based habits shaped by genre memory but adapted their strategies in response to communicative breakdowns and student needs. The study identifies three core themes: reliance on print-era conventions, …


Examining Automated Writing Evaluation Error Coverage In Relation To Uptake And Retention, Mohaddeseh Mehrzad, Mohammad Rahimi, Stephanie Link Apr 2026

Examining Automated Writing Evaluation Error Coverage In Relation To Uptake And Retention, Mohaddeseh Mehrzad, Mohammad Rahimi, Stephanie Link

Journal of Response to Writing

Despite the current widespread use of Automated Writing Evaluation (AWE) feedback, many issues regarding its efficacy still remain unresolved. Recent studies mainly focus on correctly detected errors with a lack of attention on the comprehensiveness of error detection, or error coverage. Error coverage is interesting because little is known about the capacity of AWE systems to fully detect common second language (L2) errors. It is also important to investigate the potential effect of such capacity on student uptake and retention, which are important constructs in fostering L2 writing development. To this end, the present study compared teacher feedback and AWE …

Navigating Feedback In Collaborative Writing: The Impact Of Student Backgrounds And Expectations On Transitions To New Academic And Social Spaces, Lindsey Gruber, María Fernández–Agüero

Journal of Response to Writing

This article examines how international students navigate feedback from a supervisor while working on a group writing project in a diverse English medium of instruction (EMI) bachelor’s program at a public university in Denmark, where no formalized writing or language support resources are offered in the students’ first year of instruction. Data were collected in qualitative, semi-structured interviews with 11 students who were identified through a survey of a first-year bachelor of arts cohort. Results from the survey showed that despite using a supervision model of education, few students perceived changes in feedback compared to their secondary school experiences, and …

Book Review Of Suburban Refugees: Class And Resistance In Little Saigon, Phoebe T. Pham Apr 2026

Book Review Of Suburban Refugees: Class And Resistance In Little Saigon, Phoebe T. Pham

Journal of Southeast Asian American Education and Advancement

In Suburban Refugees: Class and Resistance in Little Saigon, Jennifer Huynh challenges the common view that refugee resettlement follows a straightforward path toward assimilation, stability, and upward mobility. Focusing on Vietnamese refugees in Little Saigon, Orange County, California, Huynh examines how refugees navigate displacement, housing insecurity, and political exclusion in suburban spaces often idealized as homogenous and prosperous. Drawing on extensive data, the book presents suburban resettlement as a prolonged process shaped by structural forces and community resistance. Huynh situates her analysis within growing suburban inequality and enduring racialized policies that limit refugee opportunities long after formal resettlement. Her …


Using Natural Products In Patients With Cancer: More Than Chemotherapy, Gailen D. Marshall Apr 2026

Using Natural Products In Patients With Cancer: More Than Chemotherapy, Gailen D. Marshall

Oxford ICSB

The fundamental goal of cancer therapy is to cure the cancer. However, the approach to that goal is complicated and varies depending upon the type and stage of the tumor as well as the clinical characteristics of the patient. Cancer treatment focused on killing the tumor has considerable comorbidities associated with each therapy. Common side effects such as systemic immunosuppression, bleeding, anemia and specific organ-based pathologies each have their own significant morbidity/mortality risk. The use of natural products, both as direct antitumor agents and as moderators/mitigators of side effects of antitumor agents has a long history. Recent studies seek to …


Exploring Arab English Teachers’ Use Of Reading Strategies With Cycle Two Students In The Uae: A Mixed-Method Study, Tasnim Salahaldeen Mohammad Salah Apr 2026

Exploring Arab English Teachers’ Use Of Reading Strategies With Cycle Two Students In The Uae: A Mixed-Method Study, Tasnim Salahaldeen Mohammad Salah

Thesis/ Dissertation Defenses

Teaching reading strategies is essential for developing comprehension in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms. While previous studies have largely focused on how learners use reading strategies, there has been limited exploration of how teachers report, perceive, and implement reading strategy instruction in these educational settings. This research gap is particularly relevant in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) during Cycle Two, a crucial phase in students' reading development. This study has explored how Arab English teachers use reading strategies with Cycle Two students in EFL classrooms in the UAE. A convergent mixed-methods design was used. Data were obtained quantitatively …


A Comparative Analysis Of Cognitive And Social Outcomes In Toddlers With Speech Delay (Sd) Versus Autism Spectrum Disorder (Asd), Francisca Atem Apr 2026

A Comparative Analysis Of Cognitive And Social Outcomes In Toddlers With Speech Delay (Sd) Versus Autism Spectrum Disorder (Asd), Francisca Atem

Liberty University Research Week

The dissertation is a comparative analysis of cognitive and social performance between toddlers aged 18 to 36 months with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Speech Delay (SD). Although both groups show early communication difficulties, their developmental patterns are vastly different, and they should be adequately separated to inform intervention planning and future developmental prognoses. Firmly rooted in the context of Developmental Psychopathology, Social Pragmatic Theory, and the Ecological Systems Theory by Bronfenbrenner, this qualitative study aims to investigate ways in which toddlers with SD and ASD are different in their cognitive functioning, including executive functioning, nonverbal IQ, and problem solving, …

Socio-Legal Framework For Vulnerability: Using Public-Private Partnerships As A Tool For Disaster Management, Latisha Nixon-Jones Apr 2026

Socio-Legal Framework For Vulnerability: Using Public-Private Partnerships As A Tool For Disaster Management, Latisha Nixon-Jones

Pepperdine Law Review

As disasters continue to grow in size and intensity, the question arises: can governments effectively meet local and regional disaster response and recovery needs? This Article examines the history of utilizing public-private partnerships (PPPs) to enhance government functions in disaster management. The primary objective of this Article is to assess whether involving private entities in governmental roles is an effective strategy for building resilient communities and ensuring public safety, particularly for vulnerable populations. Existing literature focuses on the financial and logistical aspects of PPPs with mere mentions of legal importance. To address these failures, this Article proposes a novel socio-legal …

The Impact Of Computer-Based Memory Screening Administration On Variables Associated With Cardiovascular Functioning In A Sample Of Young Adults: A Pilot Study, Kanaan Hurst, Haley Hughes

Liberty University Research Week

With the rising number of individuals diagnosed with dementia, Alzheimer's and related neurodegenerative disorders, research shows that there is a grand need to understand such impairments. Our team examined cognitive function using a previously developed memory screening computer-based test. In addition to screening for cognitive function, Blood Pressure was recorded 3 times (to ensure accuracy on average) preceding the computer-based assessment and immediately following completion. Blood pressure was monitored as having hightened pressure can indicate increased likelihood of developing cognitive impairment. Developed by clinical psychologist, Dr. Crews, CogniCheck is a computer-based screening tool that uses active recall tests to assess …


Redefining The Synoptic Gospels Problem, John Fischer Apr 2026

Redefining The Synoptic Gospels Problem, John Fischer

Liberty University Research Week

Once the parameters of the Synoptic Gospels are corrected, from three witnesses to three detectives, one of whom was a witness, the Synoptic Gospels problem becomes manageable. Those who support the current Synoptic Gospels Problem believe there are three witnesses, and the way Matthew, Mark, and Luke were written indicates collusion was present. The first goal would be to remind the readers that there were three researchers or detectives and not three witnesses. The only witness was Matthew. The three detectives each had their own audience, allowing them to gather information without causing collusion or at least plagiarism.

The second …

Engaging The Non-Dominant Hand In Creative Tasks As A Pathway To Emotional Expression And Healing, Tiffany Spatz, Deepa Michelle Emmanuel, Janita Daggy Apr 2026

Engaging The Non-Dominant Hand In Creative Tasks As A Pathway To Emotional Expression And Healing, Tiffany Spatz, Deepa Michelle Emmanuel, Janita Daggy

Liberty University Research Week

Traditional therapeutic approaches may not fully engage the brain's creative processing, limiting individuals' capacity to effectively manage stress and navigate emotional discomfort. Utilizing the non-dominant hand for creative tasks shows potential as a therapeutic approach to emotion regulation while helping individuals manage stress and improve self-control. The practice works to reduce stress by means of physiological and psychological processes while also establishing relaxation and emotional balance. These activities demand brain management of motor control tasks which form cognitive flexibility and mindfulness and create better self-control and impulse regulation. A case example is included for incorporating this intervention into counseling practice.

The Putative Dash Complex Gene Dcm1 Influences Ph Adaptation And Virulence In Cryptococcus Neoformans, Cate Plaisance

Liberty University Research Week

Cryptococcus neoformans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen that causes lethal cryptococcal meningitis in immunocompromised individuals, such as the AIDS community or those who are undergoing cancer treatment. The yeast is responsible for around 19% of all AIDS related deaths annually and has been classified among the highest ranked fungal pathogens on the World Health Organization’s (WHO) Fungal Priority Pathogens List (FPPL). Antifungal resistance has stimulated increasing concern with C. neoformans. The primary route of infection is the inhalation of basidiospores from environmental reservoirs such as bird droppings and tree detritus. Germination of the basidiospores and survival of yeasts within the …

Application Of Aqbd Principles To Build A Robust Compendial Analytical Method For The Quantification Of Phytochemicals In Mate And Guayusa Leaf Dietary Ingredients, Maria Monagas, Salika Jeelani, Greg Winter, Natalia Kouznetsova Apr 2026

Application Of Aqbd Principles To Build A Robust Compendial Analytical Method For The Quantification Of Phytochemicals In Mate And Guayusa Leaf Dietary Ingredients, Maria Monagas, Salika Jeelani, Greg Winter, Natalia Kouznetsova

Oxford ICSB

Mate (Ilex paraguariensis) and Guayusa (Ilex guayusa), both members of the Aquifoliaceae family, have traditionally been consumed as herbal teas in South America. Their leaves are rich in methylxanthines and hydroxycinnamoylquinic acids—quinic acid derivatives of caffeic and gregrferulic acids—which provide stimulant and antioxidant properties. These compounds make them valuable for use in health and energy beverages as well as dietary supplements. We applied the Analytical Quality-by-Design (AQbD) approach to develop a robust UHPLC method for simultaneous quantification of methylxanthines and hydroxycinnamoylquinic acids. The method and sample preparation were designed in alignment with USP General Chapter < 1220> Analytical Procedure Life Cycle and …


Examining Racial And Ethnic Differences In Quality Of Care Between Home And In-Center Hemodialysis, Sukhman Bains Apr 2026

Examining Racial And Ethnic Differences In Quality Of Care Between Home And In-Center Hemodialysis, Sukhman Bains

2026 Symposium

Home hemodialysis (HHD) offers improved flexibility and clinical outcomes compared to in-center hemodialysis. However, its use remains limited, particularly among racial and ethnic minority populations disproportionately affected by end-stage renal disease (ESRD). This systematic review analyzed seven retrospective cohort studies (2004–2025) to assess disparities in HHD utilization and outcomes. Minority patients were significantly less likely to initiate HHD, with adjusted odds ratios ranging from 0.45 to 0.70, while no disparities were observed within Canada’s universal healthcare system. Although HHD was associated with lower mortality, this finding is likely influenced by selection bias, as HHD patients tended to be younger and …


Optimizing Itpa R178c Assays Via Hplc, Jared J. Reisnouer, Wally D. Pines Apr 2026

Optimizing Itpa R178c Assays Via Hplc, Jared J. Reisnouer, Wally D. Pines

2026 Symposium

Two of the major nucleotide bases in DNA and RNA (Adenine and Guanine) are derived from the purine Inosine Monophosphate (IMP). IMP may occasionally form the noncanonical nucleotide Inosine Triphosphate (ITP) within the cell and become incorporated into DNA during replication, leading to potentially lethal errors. To combat this, human cells produce the “housekeeping” enzyme Inosine Triphosphatase (ITPA) to revert ITP to IMP. A mutation of this protein that replaces the 178th amino acid Arginine with Cysteine (R178C) is associated with a fatal infantile encephalopathy. Previous assessments of enzyme-substrate binding and catalysis for ITPA variants have been run at a …

The Burden Of Neglect: Examining Environmental And Health Risks At Kiteezi Landfill, Uganda, Rebecca Martha Nantale, Nfn Dangpa Wandji Nana, Bright Agbotui, Maame Yaa Okrah, Emmanuel N. Clottey

Montview Journal of Research & Scholarship

The Kiteezi Landfill, located near Kampala, Uganda, exemplifies the severe environmental and health challenges arising from inadequate urban waste management. Established in 1996, the landfill was designed to handle the city's waste but has been operating beyond its capacity for years. By 2024, it had received between 1,500 and 2,000 tons of solid waste daily, far exceeding its intended limits by more than 200%. This study investigates the environmental and public health impacts of the Kiteezi Landfill in Uganda. The primary research question is: How has inadequate waste management at Kiteezi Landfill contributed to environmental degradation and public health crises? …


Sub-Lethal Exposure Of Culcicidine Mosquitoes To Pyriproxyfen: A Gateway To Pyrethroid Resistance, Ava Luckey, Andrew Duncan Apr 2026

Sub-Lethal Exposure Of Culcicidine Mosquitoes To Pyriproxyfen: A Gateway To Pyrethroid Resistance, Ava Luckey, Andrew Duncan

Liberty University Research Week

Mosquito borne diseases are a global health concern, requiring effective methods of vector control. Pyriproxyfen (PPF) is an insect growth regulator that prevents larvae from becoming adult mosquitoes. The adults exposed to PPF often have difficulties in reproduction. Pyrethroids, however, are an insecticide meant to kill mosquitoes. Oftentimes PPF and pyrethroids are used together and resistance has become an increasing concern. This study would investigate if a sublethal larval exposure to PPF will cause increased resistance to pyrethroids in adult Culcidine mosquitoes. Two separate mosquito groups would be reared with or without larval PPF exposure. The adults from both groups …
