Implementing Scientific Practices Through Case Studies: Examples Using Home-School Interventions And Consultation, Joann Galloway, Susan M. Sheridan
Implementing Scientific Practices Through Case Studies: Examples Using Home-School Interventions And Consultation, Joann Galloway, Susan M. Sheridan
Department of Educational Psychology: Faculty Publications
Integrating scientific methods into school psychological practice is an essential tenet of effective service. In this article, we present two related examples that demonstrate methods by which to conduct high-quality intervention and consultation case studies with integrity. The present case studies utilized home note and consultation-based interventions to improve task completion and accuracy in mathematics for primary grade students who had demonstrated performance difficulties despite adequate intellectual ability and academic skills. Two sets of case studies were conducted. One involved the use of a home-school note implemented by parents and teachers in conjunction with a self-instruction manual. The second set …

Consulting With Teachers About Girls And Boys, Susan M. Sheridan, Mary Henning-Stout
Department of Educational Psychology: Faculty Publications
The purpose of this article is to clarify issues of gender relevant to the practice of consultation with classroom teachers. Social psychological and educational considerations are reviewed as grounding for gender-fair educational practices which consultation can help to bring about. Finally, the specific implications of this theoretical and empirical grounding for the practice of organizational, behavioral, and mental health consultation are explored.

Conjoint Behavioral Consultation: A Review And Case Study, Susan M. Sheridan, Denise L. Colton
Department of Educational Psychology: Faculty Publications
Conjoint behavioral consultation (CBC) is an extension of traditional behavioral consultation in that parents and teachers, with the assistance of a consultant, are joined to identify and address child-related difficulties collaboratively. This article presents a background review of the conceptual and empirical grounds for CBC. A case study of the use of CBC with a young student manifesting an irrational fear of sleeping in his bedroom at home is presented. Specifically, procedures and outcomes of each stage of CBC are described. Considerations for interpreting and using case study results are also presented.

Department of Educational Psychology: Faculty Publications
Many church-state controversies of the 1980s and 1990s have involved objections by conservative Christians to public school textbooks and curricula. One of the major legal cases in this area is Mozert v. Hawkins County Board of Education (1987), in which the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit decided that public schools need not accommodate parents who have religious objections to aspects of the curriculum. In Battleground, Stephen Bates presents a thorough and balanced account of the events leading up to Mozert and argues convincingly that the case was widely misunderstood and wrongly decided.

Reason, Reasons, And Reasoning: A Constructivist Account Of Human Rationality, David Moshman
Reason, Reasons, And Reasoning: A Constructivist Account Of Human Rationality, David Moshman
Department of Educational Psychology: Faculty Publications
The concept of rationality has its roots in a historic philosophical conception of human beings as creatures of reason. To act on the basis of reason is to act on the basis of reasons, which in turn implies a process of reasoning. An objectivist conception of rationality sees its essence as lying in the use of reasoning processes that conform to appropriate logical norms. A subjectivist conception of rationality sees its essence in the subjective appeal to reasons. It is argued that neither approach alone is adequate. Rationality is best viewed as metasubjective objectivity. That is, the standards that embody …

Its my pleasure, on behalf of the Grassland Studies Task Force, to forward a proposal for a Center for Grassland Studies for your consideration. The Task Force is extremely pleased with the overwhelming support from a broad base of input. The Task Force has made a major effort through internal and external listening sessions to insure that there was support and in doing so develop a coalition of partners across the University of Nebraska System, state colleges, community colleges, industry, state and federal agencies, public groups, private non-profit organizations and other educational institutions in the region.

Using Student-Managed Interventions To Increase Homework Completion And Accuracy, Daniel E. Olympia, Susan M. Sheridan, William R. Jenson, Debra Andrews
Using Student-Managed Interventions To Increase Homework Completion And Accuracy, Daniel E. Olympia, Susan M. Sheridan, William R. Jenson, Debra Andrews
Department of Educational Psychology: Faculty Publications
We examined the effectiveness of self-managed individual and group contingency procedures in improving the completion and accuracy rates of daily mathematics homework assignments. A group of sixth-grade students having homework difficulties in mathematics were selected for the study. There was substantial improvement in the amount of homework completed over baseline for a majority of the students, whereas the results for accuracy were mixed. Students who participated in the self-management training made significant gains on standardized measures of academic achievement and curriculum-based measures of classroom performance. Parents also reported significantly fewer problems associated with homework completion following the intervention. Students who …

The Abominable Mystery Of The First Flowers: Clues From Nebraska And Kansas, M. R. Bolick, R. K. Pabian
The Abominable Mystery Of The First Flowers: Clues From Nebraska And Kansas, M. R. Bolick, R. K. Pabian
University of Nebraska State Museum: Programs Information
The plant fossils found in shales and sandstones of the late Cretaceous age Dakota Group in Nebraska and Kansas figure prominently in the "drama tis plantae" of the long-running and still unsolved mystery of the origin of flowering plants (angiosperms). This mystery has many fans because almost all of the plants that humans depend on for food and shelter are angiosperms; half of the calories in the world's diet come from the grass family alone. The Dakota fossils were discovered by western science more than one hundred years ago during the early stages of geological exploration of the western territories. …
Preserving Vertebrate Fossils: Notes From The Laboratory, Gregory Brown, Pauline Denham
Preserving Vertebrate Fossils: Notes From The Laboratory, Gregory Brown, Pauline Denham
University of Nebraska State Museum: Programs Information
The word "paleontology" is derived from the Greek words meaning "the science or study of ancient life". Usually, paleontology does not concern itself with human remains, artifacts or cultures; these are the realms of archeology and anthropology. Paleontologists excavate and study fossils, the remains of once-living plants and animals. By convention, such remains must be at least 10,000 years old to be considered fossils. In North America, there is very little overlap between the sites and materials that are studied by paleontologists and by archeologists because humans are relative newcomers to the continent. A site which produces …
