Parenting Amidst Covid-19: Pandemic-Related Stressors, Inequities, And Treatment Utilization And Perceptions, Rachel Wamser-Nanney, Viann Nguyen-Feng, Annett Lotzin, Xiang Zhou

Department of Educational Studies Faculty Publications

Many parents of children under age 18 are faced with additional COVID-19 parenting- related stressors and may be experiencing increases in psychological difficulties; however, we have yet to investigate parent’s levels of posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) and adjustment disorder. Further, COVID-19 has served as a sobering reminder of the significant public health disparities in our society and it is critical to identify risk factors for poorer clinical outcomes. The primary objectives of the present study were to: (a) determine whether parents are reporting higher levels of pandemic-related stress, PTSS, and adjustment disorder than controls, (b) identify specific individual-level factors (e.g., …

Emergent Bilingual High School Students' Social And Emotional Experiences, Elizabeth Vera, Amy J. Heineke, Plamena Daskalova, Anna K. Schultes, Juan Pantoja-Patiño, Britt Duncan, Chelsea Yanuaria, Claire Furtado

Education: School of Education Faculty Publications and Other Works

High school students labeled as English learners, referred to in this paper as emergent bilinguals, participated in a mixed methods study of their social and emotional well-being. Relationships with school personnel, peer relations, and involvement in support activities were connected to well-being while experiences of microaggressions from teachers and peers, lack of access to advanced curricula, and poor integration with mainstream peers were related to negative well-being. A variety of school, peer, and family themes both promoted and compromised well-being. Students' sense of connection to mainstream students was positively related to school belonging and positive affect. A sense of connection …

A Little More In The World: Why Amish Parents Choose To Send Their Children To Public Schools, Steve Thalheimer

Journal of Amish and Plain Anabaptist Studies

In response to 20th-century industrialization, parents of the Amish tradition established parochial schools, segmenting away from an increasingly secular society. In the 1972 Wisconsin v. Yoder case, the Supreme Court codified the right of Amish parents to withdraw children from compulsory attendance after eighth grade, and many did withdraw. Yet, nearly a half century later, some Amish parents still send their children to public schools, but only limited research has explored why. This study identifies the factors that contribute to Amish families choosing to attend public schools. The researcher, doubling as the superintendent of a district in Elkhart County, …

Building Bridges And Roads: A Phenomenological Exploration Of Feedback's Role In Writing Knowledge Transfer, Mckenna Fay Grove

English Theses, Dissertations, and Student Creative Activity

Writing knowledge transfer is a cognitive practice where students apply skills gained in the composition classroom to other contexts, such as different disciplinary fields. While transfer sounds natural in theory, students often struggle to establish such connections independently, raising the question of how educators might promote successful transfer in their instructional practices. Especially with the transition to college, students tend to have difficulties linking the crucial skills presented in their high school English classes to other writing situations. While high school and college instructors may have different curricular constraints, the shared practice of providing feedback is one potential avenue that …

Faculty Perceptions Of Dyadic Advising Relationships, Power, And Cultural Consciousness On College Student Learning Outcomes, Hind Albana

Seton Hall University Dissertations and Theses (ETDs)

Abstract

Academic advising in institutions of higher education lack consistent assessment and evaluation of practices impairing the ability to define the role, objectives, and methods utilized. Over-reliance on student satisfaction surveys for evaluating advising reinforces this phenomenon. To break the cycle, this study used survey responses from a nationwide sample (N = 156) of faculty advisors from public and private 4-year colleges and universities to examine the relationship between and among the constructs of a working relationship, shared power, cultural consciousness, and student learning outcomes. The questionnaire instrument score produced a Cronbach's alpha of .927, illustrating substantially strong internal consistency. …

Faculty Perspectives On Neuroscience Interdisciplinary Integration: A Descriptive Study From The American University In Cairo, Sondos Mohamed Moshtohry

Theses and Dissertations

The interdisciplinary approach and the science of the brain are successfully wedded. Globally, neuroscience is expanding and offering substantial advances and versatile applications within various domains affirming the worthiness of its investments; however, nationally, a similar engagement with the field is not evident. This study proposes the integrative research cloud model as a framework for interdisciplinary engagement. The American University in Cairo (AUC) is known for its forward-looking strategy and belief in interdisciplinarity that is why it was chosen as the setting for this study. Accordingly, the opinions and perspectives of its faculty from the different schools and departments on …
