Intelligent Design And Darwinian Evolution, Raul Sanchez

Nebraska College Preparatory Academy: Senior Capstone Projects

Darwinian Evolution has many fundamental flaws that are only being discussed in the technical papers and yet it’s portrayed as an unequivocal theory. Intelligent Design is being censored In Academia and represented poorly in public media. Even with leading scientists at the forefront of discovery and logical reasoning Intelligent Design is portrayed as a religious way of infiltrating the science classroom but in reality its far from it. Ultimately it comes down to what the evidence points to and if it points to God then let it be so.

Do You Hear Us? Amplifying Alternative Pathways For High School Pushouts Through Youth Participatory Action Research, Rob A. Duren Jan 2020

Do You Hear Us? Amplifying Alternative Pathways For High School Pushouts Through Youth Participatory Action Research, Rob A. Duren

Educational Leadership and Policy Studies: Doctoral Research Projects

The school-to-prison pipeline (STPP) metaphor encapsulates and describes a set of legislative policies and educational practices that systematically funnel African American, Indigenous, and Latinx students from the classroom into the juvenile and criminal justice system at disparate rates. An emerging solution to address high school pushout and the STPP has been to develop Alternative Education Campuses (AECs). However, there is a current gap in the research that amplifies the counter narratives of students currently enrolled at an AEC, through their own words, using Youth Participatory Action Research (YPAR). Studies conducted with students who have been labeled “high-risk” are especially lacking. …

I compared these experiences with the tenets of culturally responsive school leadership that is a path toward greater equity. Concurrently, I reflected deeply upon my leadership, enlisting critical colleagues to help uncover ways in which my leadership toward …
