Adapted Art Curriculum: A Guide For Teachers Of Students With Disabilities, Genevieve Yoder
Graduate Education Student Scholarship
Due to the changes in the educational system since the 1997 Individuals with Disabilities Act, few resources have been created to assist art teachers in adapting curriculum and art tools for students with disabilities. This research project explores studies in art and disabilities, as well as curriculum adaptations. The literature review offers an extensive view at current literature on four major themes: a need for curriculum, general education curriculum adaptations, adapted arts curriculum, and the impact of arts education in the lives of people with disabilities. Based on this research, a project was developed to incorporate aspects of these themes …

Implementing Student-Centered Accommodations In Mathematics, Stephanie Grosko
Graduate Education Student Scholarship
This project explores the necessary need to create and implement accommodations for low achieving learners and high achieving learners in mathematics, specifically addition and subtraction at the kindergarten level. Currently, there are no accommodations provided in the mathematic curriculum to support these groups of students and ensure they continue to succeed and grow. Research data was collected and analyzed to determine the types of accommodations that are most beneficial to these two groups of learners. Through the research findings, accommodations were discovered and included in the final project to create a student-centered learning environment called the Rainforest Math Cove. The …

The research is a response to a two-fold problem in education: a lack of preparation for future leaders in careers that require innovative-thinking and a need for advocacy for the arts in public education. The literature review provides an expansive look at the present information available on STEAM frameworks, programs, curricula design, and teaching practices. Four emergent themes are …

Immersion programs are growing in popularity for their potential to promote second language development along with academic content instruction. While bilingual education can offer many benefits, it also comes with many challenges for effective implementation often resulting in students who lack high proficiency and communicative competence in one of the school languages. This research employed a case-study approach to explore issues of bilingual education in immersion model classrooms at an Indonesian school. Specifically, this study examined the instructional practices of teachers who are delivering academic content in English with a focus on language use, methods, and balancing content and language …

This article describes “What Do You Have to Offer Me?,” an interactive classroom activity designed to help students encounter social exchange theory in action. During the exercise, each student selected seven cards, each containing a characteristic related to personality, physical appearance, family history, finances, ideology, and occupation. Next, students were asked to mill around the classroom and find someone with whom they would be interested in developing a relationship based on their assigned characteristics. Once all students found partners and took their seats, students reflected on the process of the activity and its application to social exchange theory. Along with …
