Secondary Science A Vehicle For Peace And Conflict Resolution Education, Pamelia N. Khaled

Peace and Conflict Studies Journal Conference

The Proposal’s Title

Secondary Science a Vehicle for Peace and Conflict Resolution Education

Keywords

peace, conflict resolution, secondary science, secular, religious, ethnography, Bangladesh

Abstract

This article is based on an ethnographic study in Bangladesh that analyzed Grade 10 students' perspectives on the learning of science regarding peace and conflict resolution, and the use of science in their everyday lives to negotiate peace and resolve conflicts. The in-class delivery of the secondary science curriculum in Religious and Secular educational streams was documented, including the teachers' pedagogical approaches to teaching science; the students' preferred approaches to learning science; and the students' conception …

Expanding Sites For Peacebuilding: Decolonizing Education And Research To Retrieve Cultural And Critical Sources Of Knowledge, Anya Russian, Marc B. Kuly, Heidi Lamb, Jennifer Tesoro

Peace and Conflict Studies Journal Conference

This panel considers the ideological, intellectual, personal, and practical dimensions of peacebuilding. It explores how various educational spaces, self-inquiry, and theory can bring attention to cultural predicaments and communities that are frequently neglected, omitted, or misunderstood in peacebuilding.

• In settler-colonial states, schooling is a process of naturalizing inequality which can be exposed and potentially interrupted through the application of peace and conflict studies methods and theories.
• As academic institutions seek to address gender-based violence taking place both on campuses and online, approaches may fall short in considering the institution’s continued entrenchment in colonialism. Further decolonization is needed to better address …

“I Was Told There’D Be Homebrew”: Using Open Resources To Build No Cost/Low Cost Ttrpg Events, Nathaniel Bareford

All Things Open

While tabletop role-playing games (TTRPG) like Dungeons and Dragons 5e are more popular than they have ever been, access barriers still exist for some players hoping to get into the game. The cost of game materials such as rule books, dice, and miniatures (or "minis") can prevent some people from playing. This presentation gives an overview of open resources and low-cost/no-cost materials that librarians, educators, community event planners and others can use to eliminate barriers and welcome all gamers to the table. We will describe how Wizards of the Coast’s open gaming license and System Reference Document, virtual tabletop systems, …

Institutional Impact Of The Build Program: Postsecondary Education For Students With Intellectual Disabilities, Mary Lindell, Jessica Daniels, Jodi Wolkerstorfer

Day of Scholarship

The current higher education environment is plagued with declining enrollment (Eide, 2018) and shrinking budgets (Doyle, 2020) while historically under-represented and under-served students, including those with intellectual disabilities (ID) (Thoma, et al., 2011), have traditionally experienced limited access to higher education (Thelin, 2011). The purpose of this study was to research the institutional impact of the BUILD program, one university’s effort to increase access to and the effectiveness of higher education for all students, including those with ID, while simultaneously expanding the prospective student enrollment pool. Through a qualitative case study analysis, this research explored and evaluated the implementation and …

Education And Innovation Requirements For Design Thinking Jobs, Molly J. Wickam

Day of Scholarship

Design thinking is a problem-solving approach based on design theory, design-cognition, social constructivism, and reflection. Since business and industry are seeking employees with design thinking knowledge and skills in order to infuse products and services with innovation, the purpose of the study was to understand the educational qualifications and innovation skills related to design thinking that are sought by employers seeking undergraduate business majors. Content analysis of a nationwide dataset of LinkedIn job descriptions was performed to discover attributes such as educational level, years of required experience in design thinking, and type of bachelor’s degree sought. Findings showed an anomaly …

Exploring The Occupational Health And Longevity Of New General And Special Education Teachers: A Five Year Study Of Novice Teachers Prepared By Bethel University, Peg Mccormick, Geri Vongrey

Day of Scholarship

For over 20 years, the Education Departments of Bethel University have prepared teachers to serve K-12 students in Minnesota’s public schools. Each year, for accreditation and continuous program improvement data are gathered on their teaching performance and their satisfaction with the training they receive at Bethel. However, we are unsure about how long our newly inducted teachers stay in the field, what challenges they face as novice teachers, and how workplace factors influence the onset or mitigation of occupational burnout. In 2016, we recruited 65 teacher candidates from Bethel’s undergraduate and graduate education programs to participate in a longitudinal study …

Camp Hope: Hope Theory Provides The Platform For Teachers To Retreat From Retreating, Geri Vongrey, Peg Mccormick

Day of Scholarship

In June of 2022, 2023, and forthcoming in 2024, teachers came to the Bethel University campus to participate in Camp Hope, a retreat for public and private educators. The 3-day experience provided a place for teachers to rest, reflect, and learn about Hope Theory as a pathway to emotional and spiritual restoration (Snyder, 1994, 2002; Gwinn & Hellman, 2019). The design of this retreat was a response to what we learned from a 5-year study on the retention and occupational wellness of our 2016 education program completers. Out of six measures of workplace satisfaction (Maslach, 2004), two of the six …

Open Access Scholarship: Amplifying Reach, Enhancing Collaboration, And Empowering Education, Yvonne Earnshaw, Matthew Schmidt

All Things Open

In this presentation, we highlight three benefits of leveraging open educational resources in academia. Our experiences as open access advocates and key contributors to OER projects will be supported by compelling analytics, highlighting the potential of open access publishing. We will first discuss how OER increases impact and visibility in that it liberates research from paywalls, granting unrestricted global access. This wider reach leads to greater readership, amplifying the influence of research within and beyond academia. Next, we will discuss enhanced citations and collaboration, highlighting how open access fosters a culture of knowledge-sharing and community across disciplines, thereby reducing the …

An Equitable Technology Infrastructure Model: Sustained Technology Practices Implemented During Covid-19 That Address Educational Inequities, Tracy Reimer Ph.D., Jennifer Hill

Day of Scholarship

The COVID-19 pandemic ushered in a dramatic shift to online learning for K-12 public schools, requiring school districts to address inequities that were illuminated in the remote learning model. This poster summarizes a multi-year research project. Study 1 (2020), a mixed-method survey distributed to District Technology Directors, focused on how school districts responded to the technology needs of students and families while in hybrid and distance learning models. Study 2 (2022), a focus group comprised of District Technology Directors, examined the practices implemented during remote learning that were sustained as the pandemic waned. The Equitable Technology Infrastructure Model highlights the …

Minnesota And The Science Of Reading, Abbey Payeur

Day of Scholarship

Research shows that when reading instruction aligns with how the brain learns to read, nearly all students can become proficient readers; yet longitudinal data shows that 30- 40% of students in Minnesota and around the country are not reaching this potential. How are teacher preparation programs instructing preservice teachers to teach reading? What shifts are being made in Bethel's Education Department, in Minnesota, and around the country as more is known about the science of reading? Abbey Payeur's research project looked at how the 29 teacher preparation programs in Minnesota teach reading and completed a qualitative and a thematic analysis …
