Is There Still A Need For A Creation Based Graduate School?, Joseph Bielecki
Is There Still A Need For A Creation Based Graduate School?, Joseph Bielecki
Proceedings of the International Conference on Creationism
The Institute for Creation Research was established in 1970. It was founded by Henry Morris when Tim LaHaye invited him out to southern California to develop a Christian/creation based higher education institution. In 1981, the Institute for Creation Research as a Graduate School was officially independent from Christian Heritage College. The institute granted graduate degrees in Biology, Astro/Geophysics, Geology and Science Education for almost 30 years. By curriculum, the master’s degrees issued are Biology 36, Astro/Geophysics 11, Geology 11, and Science Education 24 (as of September 2003). Notable faculty and department chairs over the 30 years of service can be …
Creationeeringtm: A K-12 Educational System That Integrates Engineering-Business From A Biblical Perspective, Mark Fredrick Horstemeyer
Creationeeringtm: A K-12 Educational System That Integrates Engineering-Business From A Biblical Perspective, Mark Fredrick Horstemeyer
Proceedings of the International Conference on Creationism
CreationeeringTM is a new paradigm, or worldview, that integrates engineering and business practice for technological entrepreneurship from a biblical basis that was first presented last year in Horstemeyer, M.F., A. Adebayo, M. Jantomaso, J.L. Long, S. Burgess, and A. McIntosh, “CreationeeringTM: An Integrated Engineering-Business Paradigm for Technological Entrepreneurship from a Biblical Basis,” Creation Research Society Quarterly, Vol. 58, pp. 238-261, 2022. However, CreationeeringTM has not been discussed in a K-PhD framework. Different emphases arise in the K-12, undergraduate, and graduate level learning outcomes related to CreationeeringTM. The systems engineering steps of creationeeringTM include the …
Genealogical Vs Phylogenetic Mutation Rates: Answering A Challenge, Robert Carter
Genealogical Vs Phylogenetic Mutation Rates: Answering A Challenge, Robert Carter
Proceedings of the International Conference on Creationism
There is a discrepancy between the mutation rate we can measure today and the rate at which evolution is supposed to have proceeded. The former is sometimes called the genealogical mutation rate, for it is obtained by comparing individuals whom we know to be related. The latter is sometimes called the phylogenetic mutation rate. It is calculated by counting the fixed differences between two species and dividing by the estimated time since their common ancestor. Genealogical mutation rates are generally several orders of magnitude faster than phylogenetic estimates. This causes problems for the evolutionary model. For example, using the genealogical …
The Teacher As Self-Leader: Building Missional Competence In Christian Public School Teachers, Valerie A. Keaton
The Teacher As Self-Leader: Building Missional Competence In Christian Public School Teachers, Valerie A. Keaton
Education Insights: Journal of Research and Practice
This paper applies Manz’s definition of self-leadership to Christian public school teachers who desire to leverage their Christian witness in their classrooms. The historic difficulties between the Church and public education in America are discussed to prove why public education is a challenging place for Christian teachers to be faithful. Then, using original research, the author shows how Christian public school teachers are currently leveraging their Christian witness. The original research found that younger teachers are exhibiting these missional behaviors less than their older colleagues. To build missional competence earlier in teachers, the author proposes that self-leadership, in conjunction with …

Education And The Image Of God, Eddie K. Baumann
Education And The Image Of God, Eddie K. Baumann
Education Insights: Journal of Research and Practice
Christian educators rightfully desire to offer an education that reflects both the goals and processes which are consistent with biblical truth. This requires that educators be sensitive to those doctrines and concepts which best inform theory and practice. In this article we examine the doctrine of the image of God and its implications for education. Threats to the image which can be seen in the society are briefly presented as well as some suggestions for the administration and practice of schooling.
Academic Discipleship: A Perspectival Clarification Of “Christian Education” For Teacher Leaders And Administrators, Kelly N. Hayes
Academic Discipleship: A Perspectival Clarification Of “Christian Education” For Teacher Leaders And Administrators, Kelly N. Hayes
Education Insights: Journal of Research and Practice
Christian education is distinct, but school leaders are not always aware of, or may not agree on, what makes it so. The term, Christian education, is ubiquitous, but is not precise. Christian educators require clear, rich language that can be used to effectively communicate the specific norms, operations, and aims of their work. Through the use of John Frame’s triperspectival methodology, this article provides a focused epistemological, metaphysical, and axiological analysis of the unique nature of Christian education with the aim of producing clarifying terminology. Observing Christian education’s distinctives from multiple, specific perspectives allows educators to better define and describe …
Medieval Methods: Guido D’Arezzo’S Innovative Approaches To Music Education, Lydia C. Kee
Medieval Methods: Guido D’Arezzo’S Innovative Approaches To Music Education, Lydia C. Kee
Musical Offerings
Music education has been influenced by many people throughout history, but arguably none of them have done so as much as the monk, Guido D’Arezzo. His teaching methods have been embraced and developed by music educators throughout the centuries. For example, it is recorded that Guido was the first to use the five-line staff as we use it today. This was especially groundbreaking in a world of rote memorization. Today it is used globally in music education. The roots of solfege are also found in Guido’s writings; his syllables have been adapted by Zoltan Kodály. Not only that, but John …
Humor In The Foreign Language Classroom, Emily M. Walker
Humor In The Foreign Language Classroom, Emily M. Walker
Channels: Where Disciplines Meet
Humor is a notoriously vague construct, often identified not by formal definition but by individual intuition (Bell, 2009). This makes it rather difficult to study or categorize concisely – indeed, analyzing humor or explaining a joke is often thought to remove the fundamental enjoyment from the experience. Despite the inherent hazards, this research seeks to provide further insight into the effects and potential applications of humor in the foreign language (FL) classroom, guided by the following research question: How does L1 humor, specifically when used as a pedagogical tool, influence students’ affective filters in a college-level elementary foreign language classroom? …
The Effects Of Code-Mixing On Second Language Development, Aimee K. Spice
The Effects Of Code-Mixing On Second Language Development, Aimee K. Spice
Channels: Where Disciplines Meet
Second language development is an important topic of discussion in an increasingly multilingual world. This study aims to examine and detail research on the effects of code-mixing (CM) on second language development, answering how CM facilitates or constrains second language acquisition. Peer-reviewed articles on the topic published between 2013 and 2018 were examined and synthesized. Language learners/multilinguals answered questionnaires about their views on CM and second language acquisition, and a language teacher was interviewed regarding use of L1 in the language classroom and CM as a pedagogical tool. This study found that CM can be a beneficial tool for language …
A Model For Outdoor Creation Education, Jonathan L. Albert
A Model For Outdoor Creation Education, Jonathan L. Albert
Proceedings of the International Conference on Creationism
Outdoor creation education is critical for encouraging and equipping the saints. A well-organized wilderness classroom opens the eyes of the learner in a unique and inspiring way. The learner gains the heart to love God and others more deeply. The learner also develops the skills necessary to impact others with humble confidence. There are many opportunities right outside our doors to help others engage the wonder of God’s creation. With the proper structure, outdoor creation education empowers the teacher and the learner in profound ways, oftentimes unachievable within the traditional classroom.
Feminist Theory And Technical Communication, Olivia Duffus
Feminist Theory And Technical Communication, Olivia Duffus
Channels: Where Disciplines Meet
This essay explores feminism, socially-constructed norms, and the relationship between feminism and technical communication. It argues that undergraduate technical communication programs should include courses that study feminist history and theories as related to the field, claiming that studying feminist theory will improve user-centered design and broaden students' spheres of influence as professionals.
