An Analysis Of Rx For Discovery Reading For Elementary Students Below Average In Reading, Susan Kay Stanley

Doctoral Dissertations and Projects

The Presence And Possibility Of Moral Sensibility In Beginning Pre-Service Teachers, Sharon Chubbuck, Terry J. Burant, Joan Whipp

College of Education Faculty Research and Publications

This paper presents research on the moral sensibility of six pre-service teachers in an undergraduate teacher education program. Using their reflective writing across their first two semesters of coursework as well as focus group interviews in their third semester as sources of data, the paper identifies and describes three distinctive types of moral sensibility and examines ways in which moral sensibility interacts with experiences in teacher education. Suggestions for explicitly incorporating the moral in pre-service teacher education are presented.

Universities And Schools: Partners In A Diverse Democracy, Nancy Cantor

Chancellor's Collection

As we contemplate the future of our democracy, we must, therefore, do two things simultaneously: (1) increase access to the stakeholder shares in our democracy and therefore reduce the gaps between the haves and the have nots; and (2) learn to live together and share communal responsibility for our future.

Seeking Refuge In Literacy From A Scorpion Bite, Loukia K. Sarroub Sep 2007

Seeking Refuge In Literacy From A Scorpion Bite, Loukia K. Sarroub

Department of Teaching, Learning, and Teacher Education: Faculty Publications

The purpose of this study is to examine a refugee boy’s experiences with literacy in and out of school in the US. Within these contexts, I explore this youth’s literacy development in light of his identity as a poor Yezidi Kurdish refugee from Iraq. Central to the article are two main themes. The first, life as a scorpion sting, explicates the young man’s life as a refugee, and the difficulties he faces in and out of school. The second theme, reading for mayonnaise, alerts us to the limitations of literacy programs in which unconnected texts and distanced narratives are prominent, …
