Explaining Academic Failure In The United States And Laos: Interpreting The Voices Of Hmong American And Hmong Lao Students, Leena Her
Leena N. Her
Claims about minority students' academic potentials are often used to explain the achievement gap between poor and minority students and their white counterparts in the United States. Alternatively, Professor Leena Her argues that as cultural citizens of the United States, ethnic minority students’ explanation of failure in the U.S. reveal much more about the culture and democratic ideology of the United States.

Looking At School From The House Window: Learning From Turkish-American Parents’ Experiences With Early Elementary Education In The United States, Zeynep Isik-Ercan
Zeynep Isik-Ercan
This study is an in-depth investigation of the perspectives of Turkish immigrant parents on their children's early schooling in the United States (PreK-3). It specifically explores how these parents connect themselves or are disconnected from school culture, and how their socio-cultural understanding of education and teachers influence their relationships with schools. Using a qualitative research format, data were collected through in-depth interviews with 18 parents from 10 families. Findings suggest that Turkish parents negotiated the ways curriculum and instruction is constructed in American schools such as their assumption of the lack of academic rigor while they embraced sound pedagogies the …

Thinking About The Earth, Sun And Moon: Urban Second Graders As Investigators., Zeynep Isik-Ercan
Zeynep Isik-Ercan
This study strove for the application of inquiry based learning based on the principles of a constructive classroom environment versus traditional teaching where the learners are silenced and only interacting with their teacher. The results indicated that when given the chance and support, culturally and linguistically diverse children can better utilize their abilities through the opportunities that the inquiry based learning provides such as independent and group learning processes, role taking, and having more choices.

Ya Me Fui! When English Learners Consider Leaving School, Jeanmarie Hamilton Boone
Ya Me Fui! When English Learners Consider Leaving School, Jeanmarie Hamilton Boone
Jeanmarie Hamilton Boone
This study examines narratives of English learners who have either dropped out or considered dropping out as a result of their experience in high school. This research seeks to determine at which point students left or considered leaving school, which often goes undetected in traditional quantitative data collection methods. The common themes that emerged in these narratives are examined in light of existing research. Researchers have suggested the following reasons English learners leave high school before earning a high school diploma: employment, limited English skills, disciplinary problems, poor grades, and not feeling a “sense of belonging” to the school. The …

Translation Of Interpersonal Support Evaluation List (Isel) And Coping Self-Efficacy (Cse) From English Into Kiswahili For Use In Kenya, Thomas Kamau, Valerie Olson, Genevieve Zipp, Maryann Clark
Thomas Matenjwa Kamau, Ph.D. MBA, MPA
There is a growing body of international research focusing on social factors and their impact on mental health of people living in developing countries. Because of the novelty of these studies and high cost associated with developing survey tools, researchers may choose to translate pre-existing survey tools instead. Research findings are only reliable if a translated instrument is equivalent in content, semantics, and concept to the original instrument. The objective of this study was to translate the Interpersonal Support Evaluation List (ISEL) and the Coping Self-Efficacy (CSE) from English into Kiswahili. The original version of each instrument was translated from …
