Using Inquiry-Based Teaching And Kids Inquiry Conferences To Strengthen Elementary Science Instruction And To Encourage More Students To Pursue Science Careers, Paula A. Magee, Ryan Flessner
Using Inquiry-Based Teaching And Kids Inquiry Conferences To Strengthen Elementary Science Instruction And To Encourage More Students To Pursue Science Careers, Paula A. Magee, Ryan Flessner
Ryan Flessner
For the past 20 years, there has been a push to improve the teaching and learning of science in elementary schools. One strong reason for this was the release of the National Science Education Standards (NRC 1996). The Standards articulated not only what K-12 students should know (science content standards), but also how science teachers needed to teach (teaching standards) and be continuously supported (professional development standards). The Standards also considered ways to support inquiry-based and meaningful science learning for K-12 students (program and system standards). According to the NRC, one ot:·the four reasons underpinning all of this is because …

Pushing The Field Of Practitioner Research: Utilizing ‘Reflective Third Spaces’ To Explore Educational Practice, Ryan Flessner
Pushing The Field Of Practitioner Research: Utilizing ‘Reflective Third Spaces’ To Explore Educational Practice, Ryan Flessner
Ryan Flessner
For decades, literature in the field of education has been rife with descriptions of the divides between theory and practice, research and implementation, and universities and public schools. Beginning with an examination of these divides, this chapter explores the ways that teacher educators can capitalize on their positioning in order to better understand educational practice. Following a brief introduction, an examination of third space theory and its usefulness to teacher educators— especially those engaged in practitioner research— ensues. Building on the work of early theorists in fields such as literature and cultural geography, third space theory has typically been used …

Indiana was admitted to the Union as the 19th state on December 11, 1816. Corydon, Indiana, located in southern Indiana, was the first state capitol until 1825, when the capital was moved to a more central location in Indianapolis. Indiana, located in the midwest, was formerly part of the Indiana Territory, dissolved in 1798. The first governor of the territory was William Henry Harrison, who served from 1800 until 1813. Harrison later became the into president of the United States, in 1840. Two constitutions have been ratified in Indiana: the first in 1816, and the current constitution in 1851. Indiana …

English Proficiency / Fluent English Proficient Students, Susan R. Adams
Susan Adams
K-12 students whose first language is not English are identified upon enrollment in U.S. schools through a home language survey and are immediately assessed to determine whether English as a second language (ESL) services are required. Students who do not pass this initial screening assessment are classified as English Language Learners (ELLs), or as limited English proficiency (LEP) students, and are identified to receive school-provided English language development (ELD) and accommodations. Students who pass the initial screener or who demonstrate English proficiency two years in a row on state-mandated annual assessments are deemed fluent or fully English proficient (FEP) students …

Lee A Wilkinson, PhD
Although autism spectrum disorder (ASD) affects approximately 1% of the school-age population, it is not unusual for children with mild levels of impairment to remain unidentified until well after entering school. A recent study examining the timing of identification among children with autism using a population-based sample from an ongoing surveillance effort across 13 sites in the United States found the gap between potential and actual age of identification (for those identified) to be in the range of 2.7 to 3.7 years. Combined with the fact that more than one quarter of cases were never identified as having ASD through …
“His Experience: Toward A Phenomenological Understanding Of Academic Capital Formation Among Black And Latino Male Students”, Shaun R. Harper, Colin D. Williams Jr., David L. Perez Ii, Demetri L. Morgan
“His Experience: Toward A Phenomenological Understanding Of Academic Capital Formation Among Black And Latino Male Students”, Shaun R. Harper, Colin D. Williams Jr., David L. Perez Ii, Demetri L. Morgan
Demetri L. Morgan, Ph.D.
St. John, Hu, and Fisher (2011) define academic capital formation as “social processes that build family knowledge of educational and career options and support navigation through educational systems.” The authors suggest that particular interventions, programs, and services can equip students from lower-income backgrounds and their families with knowledge of and membership in networks that ultimately help them access colleges and universities, attain postsecondary degrees, and transition into the middle class. This chapter focuses on academic capital formation among Black and Latino male students, with a particular emphasis on giving voice to their navigational experiences along various dimensions of the St. …

Teacher Self-Efficacy Of Graduate Teaching Assistants Of French, Nicole A. Mills, Heather Allen
Teacher Self-Efficacy Of Graduate Teaching Assistants Of French, Nicole A. Mills, Heather Allen
Nicole A Mills
Teacher efficacy is described as “the extent to which the teacher believes he or she has the capacity to affect student performance” (Berman, McLaughlin, Bass, Pauly, & Zellman, 1977, p. 137). Studies of teacher efficacy have revealed its relation to teachers’ effort (Guskey, 1988; Stein & Wang, 1988), enthusiasm for teaching (Allinder, 1994), goals and persistence (Tschannen-Moran, Hoy, and Hoy, 1998), commitment to students and teaching (Coladarci, 1992; Evans & Tribble, 1986), and teacher effectiveness (Ashton & Webb, 1986; Moore & Esselman, 1992). Tschannen-Moran, Hoy, and Hoy (1998) introduced a new teacher efficacy model that reconciled the conceptions of teaching …
Cultural Learning Outcomes And Summer Study Abroad, Heather W. Allen, Veronica Dristas, Nicole A. Mills
Cultural Learning Outcomes And Summer Study Abroad, Heather W. Allen, Veronica Dristas, Nicole A. Mills
Nicole A Mills
This study investigated cultural learning by 194 high school students in summer study abroad programs. Quantitative analysis was used to determine if significant changes occurred in self reports of cultural, linguistic, and interpersonal challenges in the target culture; understanding of target-culture perspectives, practices, and products; and identification with native versus target culture after study abroad. Outcomes in each area were compared between homestay and non-homestay participants. This chapter was published in "Identity and Second Language Learning: Culture, Inquiry, and Dialogic Activity in Educational Contexts."
