Understanding And Implementing School-Family Interventions After Neuropsychological Impairment, Jane Close Conoley, Susan M. Sheridan
Understanding And Implementing School-Family Interventions After Neuropsychological Impairment, Jane Close Conoley, Susan M. Sheridan
Department of Educational Psychology: Faculty Publications
Children who have suffered traumatic brain injury (TBI) or have neurological impairments due to disease, toxins, or genetic makeup present challenges that are best addressed by coordinated treatment and support activities among all their caregivers. Such systematic approaches to treatment, rehabilitation, teaching, and parenting are both complex to describe and difficult to create and maintain. The goal of this chapter is to focus on one of the key systems that affects children’s learning and behavioral adjustments: the interface between schools and families. Other Handbook authors have described specialized consultation to teachers needed to support their efficacy with children. This chapter …

Consultation: Conjoint Behavioral, John W. Eagle, Susan M. Sheridan
Consultation: Conjoint Behavioral, John W. Eagle, Susan M. Sheridan
Department of Educational Psychology: Faculty Publications
Conjoint behavioral consultation (CBC) is defined as a "structured, indirect form of service delivery in which parents and teachers are joined together to ad-dress the academic, social, or behavioral needs of an individual" (Sheridan & Kratochwill, 1992, p. 122). CBC incorporates a data-based, behavioral approach to supporting children's needs in naturalistic settings within an ecological-systems theoretical framework. CBC is a process that is guided by a consultant (e.g., school psychologist, special educator, or other team member) who facilitates a problem-solving process through the use of technical and interpersonal skills (Christenson & Sheridan, 2001). The foci of CBC are remediating and …

Multi-Party Mobilization For Adolescent Literacy In A Rural Area: A Case Study Of Policy Development And Collaboration, Edmund T. Hamann, Julie Meltzer
Multi-Party Mobilization For Adolescent Literacy In A Rural Area: A Case Study Of Policy Development And Collaboration, Edmund T. Hamann, Julie Meltzer
Department of Teaching, Learning, and Teacher Education: Faculty Publications
Between 2001 and 2005, the state of Maine shifted the focus of its statewide high school improvement efforts to include an explicit focus on adolescent literacy. One trigger for that change in focus was a 5-school adolescent literacy initiative previously launched in a rural county under the federal Northeast and Islands Regional Educational Laboratory contract. This monograph describes the multi-party mobilization that led to the creation and implementation of the adolescent literacy project and explains the link between that modest rural effort and the change in state-level reform efforts. The project was designed and implemented at the intersection of what …

Systemic High School Reform In Two States: The Serendipity Of State-Level Action, Edmund T. Hamann
Systemic High School Reform In Two States: The Serendipity Of State-Level Action, Edmund T. Hamann
Department of Teaching, Learning, and Teacher Education: Faculty Publications
Maine and Vermont have been national leaders in state-level coordination of high school reform. Both recently developed almost interchangeable, new, voluntary, statewide frameworks that describe multiple ways high schools should change. Both frameworks— Promising Futures (Maine Commission on Secondary Education 1998) and High Schools on the Move (Vermont High School Task Force 2001)—were published in book form and include extensive bibliographies grounding their claims that they are research based. Both frameworks recommend principles and practices for improving high schools for all students. Both frameworks were drafted primarily by leading local educators with only modest support from experts based beyond the …
Review Of 5 Leadership Essentials For Women: Developing Your Ability To Make Things Happen Compiler Lisa Clark, Clarissa M. Craig
Review Of 5 Leadership Essentials For Women: Developing Your Ability To Make Things Happen Compiler Lisa Clark, Clarissa M. Craig
Journal of Women in Educational Leadership
Because much of the scholarship on leadership has been constructed using male norms (Nidiffer, 2001), there is added attraction when the essentials of successful leadership are targeted for women. 5 Leadership Essentials for Women: Developing Your Ability to Make Things Happen addresses five leadership skills that, according to the "compiler" [sic] Linda Clark, are designed with women's needs in mind. The leadership essentials explored are communication, relationship essentials, time management, group building, and conflict management.
Strategies For Advocacy In Higher Education, Marie Byrd-Blake, Linda Hampton Wesson
Strategies For Advocacy In Higher Education, Marie Byrd-Blake, Linda Hampton Wesson
Journal of Women in Educational Leadership
The feminist phase theory (Tetreault, 1985) was used to examine the cultural patterns embedded in a department of a large, urban university, to classify how the faculty in the department perceived women, and to examine how our own behavior as two newly hired associate and assistant professors contributed or did not contribute to these patterns of behavior. Three years of field notes, anecdotal records, transcriptions of meetings, interviews, and student comments were categorized to develop experienced-derived strategies. These strategies encourage women in higher education to: (a) recognize their own enmeshment in patriarchal practices; (b) disrupt these practices through their own …

Journal of Women in Educational Leadership
There are some fundamental principles that relate to writing. For instance, you must sit down and begin. Writing is an illusive task. Procrastination and hesitation are poor companions to the work of the writer.

Women In History--Dr. Susan Laflesche Picotte: American Physician And Heroine, Bernita L. Krumm
Journal of Women in Educational Leadership
Susan LaFlesche Picotte walked in two cultures and, by any measure, served as a model for both. She overcame incredible obstacles to become the first Native American woman doctor in the United States. Most estimates agree that in 25 years she treated every member of the Omaha tribe. She dedicated her life to the service of others; she is without a doubt the true American heroine. References

African American Female College And University Presidents: Career Path To The Presidency, Sandra Jackson, Sandra Harris
African American Female College And University Presidents: Career Path To The Presidency, Sandra Jackson, Sandra Harris
Journal of Women in Educational Leadership
The purpose of this study was to investigate the career paths and educational preparation of African American female college presidents. Forty-three of the 59 college presidents responded to a Likert-type survey. Findings indicated that African American female college presidents were more likely to hold a doctorate in education and came to the presidency from a variety of positions, often from other institutions or outside of education.

Journal of Women in Educational Leadership
For women who have been unrecognized for their work in education, being lost due to name changes, phone changes, and email changes does not seem to be very helpful to the cause of recognizing the work of the 51 %. We have had enough invisibility and enough flying around like ivory-billed woodpeckers.
Voices Of Women In The Field--Lessons From The Land Of Administrative Oz, Carol Renner
Voices Of Women In The Field--Lessons From The Land Of Administrative Oz, Carol Renner
Journal of Women in Educational Leadership
We're off to explore the Land of Administrative Oz. On this adventure, Dorothy is a female teacher searching for her ideal educational path. Her passion is to make a difference for student learning. She is wondering if she should try her leadership in an administrative capacity. She contemplates taking the road to administrative endorsement, just as our protagonist, Dorothy, traveled the Yellow Brick Road, not knowing what was ahead. Our teacher starts her journey. Where does the road lead? Observe as our aspiring administrator follows the Career Brick Road. Are her expenences reminiscent of your educational career route?
Shining Lonely Stars? Career Patterns Of Rural Texas Female Administrators, Dawn C. Wallin
Shining Lonely Stars? Career Patterns Of Rural Texas Female Administrators, Dawn C. Wallin
Journal of Women in Educational Leadership
This paper stems from research that examined the impact of the rural context upon the career patterns of women educational administrators in rural public school districts in the state of Texas. The study examined two pertinent issues for women in rural education: (a) the nature of rural communities and its relationship to female career paths in educational administration, and (b) barriers and supports faced by female administrators in the rural context. The purpose of this paper will be to outline the findings of the study in relation to the emergent issues for rural female administrators.

Women In Educational Leadership Finding Common Ground, Kathleen Murphey, Glenda Moss, Susan Hannah, Roberta Wiener
Journal of Women in Educational Leadership
The purpose of this research project was to engage in self-reflective analysis of leadership development as an ongoing process of social action towards democratizing education. Four White women connected by their work as educational leaders, teachers and administrators, engaged this topic by conducting a dialogical analysis of their experiences in leadership. They dialogued from what were technically different positions in the hierarchy at their University and implemented a research process to speak across or marginalize those technical differences to produce a text that explored the rich terrain of leading in which they shared experiences of growth, the conceptual frameworks that …
Comparison Of The Academic Achievement Of First-Year Female Honors Program And Non-Honors Program Engineering Students, Gayle Hartleroad
Comparison Of The Academic Achievement Of First-Year Female Honors Program And Non-Honors Program Engineering Students, Gayle Hartleroad
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
The purpose of this study was to compare the academic achievement of first-year female engineering students based on participation, or lack thereof, in the honors program. A single research question was developed for this study: “Is there a significant difference in academic achievement of first-year female engineering Honors Program students and non-honors program students?” The problem for this study was that many students in the Freshman Engineering program at Purdue University believed that participation in an honors program damaged students’ grade point averages with its challenging curriculum. This was especially true for beginning female students entering a traditionally male-dominated career …
“What Is An Honors Student?”, Jay Freyman
“What Is An Honors Student?”, Jay Freyman
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
It is first necessary to recognize the distinction between the questions “What is an honors student?” or better “What are the characteristics of an honors student?” and “How do you recognize a student with those characteristics?” The first of these two questions is easier to approach since it is more a matter of prescription than of description, a presentation of an ideal rather than a recognition of an actual state. We can all list characteristics which we would like or expect those special students to have who are worthy in our estimation of the designation “honors.” These expectations, I submit, …

Honors: When Value-Added Is Really Added Value, Jacqueline Kelleher
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
Sometimes I look at the responsibilities and demands placed on me in my current position and cannot believe I haven’t cracked up yet. In this era of accountability and “show me the data,” institutional assessment directors like me are constantly bombarded with challenges that require quick, critical, divergent thinking, analytical reasoning, effective speaking, and, to some extent, creative writing. As both a professor and administrator at a state university, I live and breathe producing evidence that we as an institution are having an impact on student learning. When I was growing up, I never imagined I would end up being …
What Honors Students Want (And Expect): The Views Of Top Michigan High School And College Students, James P. Hill
What Honors Students Want (And Expect): The Views Of Top Michigan High School And College Students, James P. Hill
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
Often missing in an overall assessment of honors is a broad, comparative analysis of what top academic students want and expect from college and more particularly from an honors experience. Limited case studies or theoretical research articles analyzing how honors students think or perform may overlook or undervalue this important voice in the honors discourse. This article, although in some respects also just a larger-scale case study, has a broader perspective than many similar studies of honors students. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the expectations of prospective and current college honors students. This study also compares the …
Redemptive Memory: The Christianization Of The Holocaust In America, Laura Bender Herron
Redemptive Memory: The Christianization Of The Holocaust In America, Laura Bender Herron
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
There has been a considerable debate among historians concerning the role of the Holocaust in the American collective memory. Since the watershed year 1993, when the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum opened its doors on the Mall in Washington, DC, and the film Schindler’s List debuted, the level of awareness of the Holocaust in the public mind has been at an all-time high in the United States. The question at the heart of this academic discussion is how Americans have come to identify so strongly with an experience that occurred over sixty years ago, on foreign shores, to a group …
Honors As An Adjective: Response To Jay Freyman, Len Zane
Honors As An Adjective: Response To Jay Freyman, Len Zane
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
As an ex-honors program/college CEO, the question raised by this Forum— ”What is an Honors (fill in the blank)?”—got me reminiscing about the old days. In some sense the best answers are the obviously circular answers. An honors student is a student participating in an honors program. An honors curriculum is the curriculum required to graduate with honors and is made up, obviously, of honors courses. The people teaching those courses are by necessity honors faculty. But how can an honors course be identified? Well, it is one populated by honors students that meets some curricular requirement of an honors …
