A Missing Piece In The K-12 Online Learning Puzzle: Professional Development For Online Teachers, Chad A. Turley

Theses and Dissertations

K-12 online learning continues to grow, and with it, the need for well-trained online teachers. This multiple-article dissertation explores K-12 online teaching professional development. A literature review describes research trends regarding unique strategies and competencies related to online teaching. It explores strategies such as acting as a facilitator, developing course knowledge, encouraging student engagement, interacting regularly with students, giving feedback, and developing time management skills. The literature review suggests that there is a lack of specific recommendations about what content should be covered and why professional development is beneficial for both teachers and students. Programs that incorporate online teaching professional …

President Georgia Nugent On The Closure Of Lincoln Community College, Charlie Schlenker

Interviews for WGLT

IWU President Georgia Nugent says the closure of Lincoln College is an example of the challenging time in higher education. Nugent used to work at the council of independent colleges that tracks issues facing largely private liberal arts colleges. Sixty colleges have closed or consolidated since 2016 and in this interview with WGLT’s Charlie Schlenker, Nugent says that number is significant but perhaps misleading.

Philosophical Hermeneutics As An Interpretive Framework In The Analysis Of Colin Kaepernick’S Nfl Protest, E. Anthony Muhammad, Cynthia Thomas

Curriculum, Foundations & Reading: Faculty Publications

One of the more polarizing issues that captivated society in recent years was the controversy surrounding National Football League (NFL) athletes kneeling during the playing of the National Anthem. Initiated by NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick as a display of protest against police brutality, kneeling during the anthem sparked a firestorm of controversy and a national debate. In this study the controversy and the two men behind it will be analyzed through the lens of Hans-Georg Gadamer’s philosophical hermeneutics. Specifically, this study will highlight how Colin Kaepernick and Army veteran Nate Boyer experienced a fusion of horizons that produced the kneeling …

Undergraduate Students’ Accuracy & Confidence In Detecting Errors In Biological Models Related To Gpa, Mckenna Elliott, Joseph Dauer, Carrie Clark, Mei Grace Behrendt

UNL Student Research Days Posters, Undergraduate

Research Questions 1. Does students’ abilities to Accurately detect errors relate to their GPA? 2. Which concepts affect student ability to Accurately and Confidently detect errors?

GPA was positively related to accuracy but was unrelated to confidence (Fig. 1)

Subject areas affected students’ accuracy and confidence § Students were more accurate on ecology & evolution models (Fig. 2) § Students were more confident in ecology models and less confident in physiology models (Fig. 2)

Variation in student ability and subject area competency can provide teachers with places to focus and improve science understanding.

Virtual Teaching Rehearsals And Repeated Teaching Simulations: Impact On Pre-Service Teachers Efficacy, Lori Imasiku, Michelle K. Bacchiocchi

Faculty Publications

Due to the nature of in-person K-12 classrooms, opportunities for PTs to engage in a cycle of teaching, reviewing/reflecting, and reteaching is limited. Teaching simulations, unlike live K-12 classroom clinical experience, allow for PTs to practice their teaching, with the potential for repeating that experience once or multiple times to advance effectiveness. Repeating teaching simulations can be a repeat of an exact lesson taught with necessary modifications made or can be a new lesson, but with a focus on the successful implementation of a selected instructional strategy. In the repeated teaching simulations, PTs have an opportunity to practice teaching content …

Google Translate And Biliterate Composing: Second-Graders' Use Of Digital Translation Tools To Support Bilingual Writing, Lindsey Rowe

Publications

Research is needed exploring how teachers and students in English-medium schools transform classrooms to welcome and value bilingualism and biliteracy. This article draws on social literacies and placed resources perspectives to explore how one classroom of second-grade students used Google Translate as a tool to support their biliterate composing. Constant comparative analyses revealed three patterns related to students' use of this tool. Students used Google Translate to support their inclusion of bilingual text and to interact with peers. They also negotiated limitations around the use of Google Translate. Examples of each pattern are used to illustrate how students interactionally engaged …

Effects Of Engagements And Presentation Order In Informal Science Presentations, William Henry Katzman

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

Science museums conduct presentations for their audiences to attract and educate visitors, yet research on presentations has primarily concentrated on whether individual presentations were effective. This mixed-methods, quasi-experimental study looks at how the presenter’s mental and physical engagements within a presentation affects audience members by altering sociocultural context of the presentation.

Physical engagements involve asking audience members to physically participate, while mental engagements involved asking audience members to make predictions prior to observing a demonstration. Audiences were given presentations containing: 1) Both mental and physical engagements, 2) Physical engagements only, 3) Mental engagements only or 4) No engagements (control).

考查传统和特定个人拟合指标在作弊侦测中的效力, Sanford R. Student

Chinese/English Journal of Educational Measurement and Evaluation | 教育测量与评估双语期刊

在大规模测验中，个人拟合指标 (person-fit statistic, PFS) 可被用于检测考生作弊行为，而本研究考查了这一应用的可行性。大多数PFS对伪高分 (spuriously high scores) 和伪低分 (spuriously low scores) 同样敏感。Xia 和 Zheng (2018) 介绍了四种对伪高分更为灵敏、可能更适用于检测作弊行为的PFS。本研究将加权PFS与传统PFS在作弊侦测中的效力进行比较，结果表明在所有或大多数情况下没有单一的最佳指标，并且在大多数情况下，大多数被个人拟合分析标记为作弊的考生并没有作弊。文末讨论了使用PFS检测作弊的实际意义。

Appraising Traditional And Purpose-Built Person Fit Statistics’ Power To Detect Cheating, Sanford R. Student

Chinese/English Journal of Educational Measurement and Evaluation | 教育测量与评估双语期刊

Person-fit statistics (PFSs) have been suggested as a tool to detect cheating in large-scale testing, and this study investigates their potential for this application. Most PFSs are equally sensitive to scores that appear spuriously high or spuriously low. Xia & Zheng introduced four PFSs that are meant to be more sensitive to spuriously high scores and therefore may be more appropriate for detecting cheating. Comparing the power of these weighted PFSs against the power of traditional PFSs to detect cheating shows that there is no single best statistic in all or most scenarios, and in most scenarios, most examinees flagged …

语言测试成绩与当地能力等级对接研究：以中国英语能力等级量表 (Cse) 为例, Spiros Papageorgiou, Sha Wu, Ching-Ni Hsieh, Richard J. Tannenbaum, Mengmeng Cheng

Chinese/English Journal of Educational Measurement and Evaluation | 教育测量与评估双语期刊

在过去的十年中，人们对建立测试分数与外部语言能力等级量表或框架 —— 如欧洲共同语言参考框架 (Common European Framework of Reference, CEFR) —— 之间的对接关系的兴趣日益浓厚。对接本质上是一个验证假设的过程，即对考试分数与外部语言能力等级的对应关系假设进行验证。研究应认真落实和记录既定程序，并应收集多种来源的证据，以支撑关于对应关系的假设。本研究旨在建立一项国际英语能力测试与中国本地化英语能力标准——《中国英语能力等级量表》(China’s Standards of English Language Ability, CSE) —— 之间的对接关系，展示了提出并验证假设的步骤。将国际考试分数对接到本地化标准有助于使考试成绩解释与其预期使用环境的相关性更高。鉴于基于分数的决策对个人和机构的潜在影响，本研究也讨论了用本地化的能力等级来解释考试分数时应考虑的语境问题。文章结尾对同类对接研究的开展提出了一些建议。

Aligning Language Test Scores To Local Proficiency Levels: The Case Of China’S Standards Of English Language Ability (Cse), Spiros Papageorgiou, Sha Wu, Ching-Ni Hsieh, Richard J Tannenbaum, Mengmeng Cheng

Chinese/English Journal of Educational Measurement and Evaluation | 教育测量与评估双语期刊

The past decade has seen an emerging interest in aligning test scores to language proficiency levels of external performance scales or frameworks, such as the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR). Such alignment is ultimately a claim about the interpretation of test scores in relation to external levels of language proficiency. To support such a claim, established procedures should be carefully implemented and documented, and multiple sources of evidence should be collected. This paper demonstrates the steps in building an argument for aligning the scores of an international English language proficiency test to the levels of China’s Standards of English …

"Building The Plane While It's In The Air”: Examining Institutional Response To Covid-19 And Impacts On Graduate Students, Raquel Wright-Mair, Candice Peters, Gabrielle A. Mcallaster

Journal of Critical Scholarship on Higher Education and Student Affairs

As a result of institutional neglect and under preparation, graduate students threaded their way through the COVID-19 pandemic and racial injustices across the U.S. with minimal to no support and resources. In this manuscript, we discuss the oversights in institutional response, and management of these crises, explicating the difficulties that ensued from the academy’s failure to anticipate, critically consider, and meet the nuanced needs of graduate students before and during the COVID-19 crisis. We also highlight intersectionality as a valuable framework that enables us to identify, analyze, and address the range of concerns of graduate students. Lastly, we posit three …
