Department of Educational Administration: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
The purpose of this study was to examine different selected influence areas that may have an impact on a community college student’s attitudes towards their education. The study was first examined in relation to existing research regarding influences that can affect, positively or negatively, a student’s attitude towards education, the courses and type of institution that they select, and ultimately in their decision to pursue higher education in general. Ten different selected influence areas were chosen and aspects of each area were examined to provide insight into influences that may impact student attitudes towards education and ultimately student outcomes. Some …
The Role Of Leadership Experience In Self-Authorship Development: A Qualitative Case Study, Anna Pressler
The Role Of Leadership Experience In Self-Authorship Development: A Qualitative Case Study, Anna Pressler
Department of Educational Administration: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
Marcia Baxter Magolda’s research showed development of self-authorship typically occurred around 30 years of age. However, some programming and experiential learning presented opportunities to accelerate self-authorship development in college. Baxter Magolda emphasized the importance of self-authorship in the formative years of college and post-graduation with significant life decisions of academic major, career choice, and relationships. Therefore, the purpose of this qualitative case study was to explore the role leadership experience played in development of self-authorship in college. Previous research touted multicultural programming, developmental advising, challenging classroom environments, and living-learning community models as ways to promote self-authorship development, but little research …

Counseling Concepts and Applications for Student Affairs Professionals (CNS 577)
Gifted and talented students become accustomed to exhibiting academic excellence throughout their K-12 careers; so much so that they learn to crave the intellectual stimulation and intrigue that is characteristic of their curricular experiences. Upon entering the realm of higher education, these same students are faced with a newfound independence and must make the decision of whether or not to continue their pursuits of specialized education. Students that are active in and outside the classroom during their collegiate career are more likely to complete their degree programs as proposed by Astin’s Theory of Student Involvement (Astin, 1999). Therefore, getting involved …

Cheating & Academic Misconduct: What Do You Have To Lose? [Brochure And Video], Cady Denton
Counseling Concepts and Applications for Student Affairs Professionals (CNS 577)
Academic misconduct is an issue plaguing college campuses. Academic misconduct can be clearly defined (plagiarism, copying the work of another) or more ambiguous (sharing work, turning in one piece of work for multiple assignments) (Schmelkin, Gilbert, Spencer, Pincus, & Silva, 2008). McCabe and Trevino (1996) state that cheating has become more prevalent, and tactics widely vary. Reasons for academic misconduct can range from stress and poor time management to a compliance with suggested social norms (ETS and the Ad Council, 1999). While academic dishonesty may seem like the “easy way out,” it can result in serious consequences affecting one’s academic …

Tips For The Working College Student [Brochure And Video], Michelle Hanley
Counseling Concepts and Applications for Student Affairs Professionals (CNS 577)
Working in college is more common than some people may realize. According to the United States Census Bureau, 72% of undergraduate students and 82% of graduate students work during college. There are various reasons why students decide to work in college. For some the increase in tuition has forced them to work to pay tuition or other educational related fees. Others may work in college in the form of a work study program or internship to gain career experience or for money to pay for entertainment. Some students work to support their families and pay for living expenses thus falling …

Mas Que El Apoyo Academico: La Educacion No Formal Y El Programa Servicio Pais Educacion, Leah Ewald
Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection
This investigation aims to analyze the operation and overall results of Servicio País Educación, an intervention-based program of the non-profit organization, Fundación de la Superacíon, offered to primary, low-resource, municipal schools in Chile. Functioning from 2010-2012 as an after-school program, Servicio País Educación provided a non-formal educational environment which provided hands-on learning opportunities for students. Children selected to participate in the program came from especially poor socioeconomic situations and often underperformed academically in the classroom or exhibited behavioral issues. Students participated in small groups led by tutors where they received not only individualized academic help but practical education in the …

Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
The purpose of this qualitative case study was to explore the perceptions of middle school, technologically proficient, or digitally-wise teachers, regarding how they defined, prevented, recognized, and handled incidences of cyberbullying in four middle schools located in Southern Virginia. Data was collected using an open-ended questionnaire, archival data, including school public records and lesson plans, and interviews. Data for this study were triangulated and synthesized following Stake's data analysis procedures to create naturalistic generalizations for the readers. All data was coded and 10 emergent themes developed. Digitally-wise middle school teachers voiced confidence about their ability to define cyberbullying; they shared …

The Legal Consequences Of Mandating High Stakes Decisions Based On Low Quality Information: Teacher Evaluation In The Race-To-The-Top Era, Bruce D. Baker, Joseph Oluwole, Preston C. Green
The Legal Consequences Of Mandating High Stakes Decisions Based On Low Quality Information: Teacher Evaluation In The Race-To-The-Top Era, Bruce D. Baker, Joseph Oluwole, Preston C. Green
Department of Counseling Scholarship and Creative Works
In this article, we explain how overly prescriptive, rigid state statutory and regulatory policy frameworks regarding teacher evaluation, tenure and employment decisions outstrip the statistical reliability and validity of proposed measures of teaching effectiveness. We begin with a discussion of the emergence of highly prescriptive state legislation regarding the use of student testing data within teacher evaluation systems, specifically for purposes of making employment decisions. Next, we explain the most problematic features of those policies, which include a) requirements that test-based measures constitute fixed, non-negotiable weight in final decisions, b) that test-based measures are used to place teachers into categories …

Mental Health Stigma - Impact And Interventions, Kiphany Hof, Michael Bishop, David D. Hof, Julie A. Dinsmore, Christine Chasek, Douglas R. Tillman
Counseling Faculty Publications
Research shows that negative stereotyping leads to social stigmatization of those with mental illness resulting in self-stigmatization, lower self-esteem, diminished self-efficacy, and limited access to social support and mental health services for those with mental illness. Few studies have been conducted to identify who is most predisposed to be supportive of those with mental illness and who may be willing to advocate for greater access to services. The purpose of this study is to clarify who is most open to support and advocate for those with mental illness. Responses from a sample of 48 volunteer college students to a researcher-developed …

A Critical Review Of Reflectivity, Andragogy, And Confucianism, John A. Henschke Edd
A Critical Review Of Reflectivity, Andragogy, And Confucianism, John A. Henschke Edd
IACE Hall of Fame Repository
The link between Confucian humanism, Mezirow' theory of reflectivity, and the convergence of a worldwide concept of andragogy (the art and science of helping adults learn) articulated by Savicevle, Knowles, Mezirow's theory has increasingly developed to integrate inner reflection expressed through transformed perspectives and decision and action, and andragogy has focused on facilitation of collaborative interaction and self-direction in learning involving the whole person. To appreciate the basis of these three schools of theory, this chapter presents a discussion of these originating theorists. As an introductory thought, the following quotations illustrate how Confucius' thought has long been valued and aspired …

A 2013 Update Of Research In Andragogy Has Revealed Some New Dimensions And Another Era As We Looked Toward Andragogy's Future, John A. Henschke Edd
IACE Hall of Fame Repository
This paper on the History and Philosophy of Andragogy is mainly limited [with a few exceptions] to a chronological history and the accompanying philosophy of andragogy, in line with when the English language documents were published and personal descriptions of events were written down. Some of these documents, however, present aspects of the events and ideas which recount the years and contexts in which they appeared in published form. This will not be an exact history of the events and philosophy as they appear in chronological order. But, this will be presented in the general sequence of the years that …
A Call To Integrate Religious Communities Into Practice: The Case Of Sikhs, Muninder Ahluwalia, Anjali Alimchandani
A Call To Integrate Religious Communities Into Practice: The Case Of Sikhs, Muninder Ahluwalia, Anjali Alimchandani
Department of Counseling Scholarship and Creative Works
Sikhs, an ethnic and religious minority group in the United States, have seen a significant shift in their social location since 9/11. They have experienced harassment and violence beyond race and ethnicity to the visible markers of the religion (e.g., turbans). In this article, we address how counseling psychology is uniquely positioned to work with Sikhs given these circumstances. We provide an overview of Sikh Americans, including specific experiences that may affect treatment such as race-based traumatic injury, identification as a part of a visible religious minority group, and the impact of historic community-level trauma. We discuss recommendations for practitioners …

Counseling Masters Student’S Personal Growth Group Experience, Cheryl Neale-Mcfall, Rebekah J. Byrd
ETSU Faculty Works
Participating in and experiencing a counseling growth group is a process that is required in all CACREP-accredited counseling programs. Existent literature suggests that multiple variables may impact participants’ learning in growth groups, and call into question the effectiveness of such groups. Overall, the majority of the research (Barnette, 1989; Hogg & Deffenbacher, 1988; Yalom & Leszcz, 2005) implies that growth groups have the potential to produce meaningful and positive outcomes; however, there are gaps in the literature that do not address the direct experiences of individuals in growth group (Berman & Zimpfer, 1980; Goodrich, 2008). This article presents research that …

Evaluating A Safe Space Training For Professional School Counselors And Trainees Using A Randomized Control Group Design, Rebekah J. Byrd, Danica Hays
ETSU Faculty Works
School counselors need to advocate and act as an ally for all students. Safe Space, a training designed to facilitate competency for working with and serving LGBTQ youth (i.e., LGBTQ competency), has received increased attention in the field of school counseling. However, limited empirical support exists for training interventions such as Safe Space, with only one study to date examining its effectiveness for graduate psychology students (see Finkel, Storaasli, Bandele, & Schaefer, 2003). This study used a randomized pretest-posttest control group design to evaluate and examine the impact of Safe Space training on competency levels of a sample of school …
