Developing A Leadership Perspective In The Classroom, John E. Barbuto Jr. Sep 2000

Developing A Leadership Perspective In The Classroom, John E. Barbuto Jr.

Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication: Faculty Publications

This paper presents a normative pedagogical model that integrates leadership theory, student development, and cognitive/ego development. The first step, assessment of students’ developmental stage/ needs, uses a developmental model to assess students’ developmental and motivational needs. The second step, selection of teaching style, incorporates leadership literature to develop teaching styles selected based on the developmental and motivational needs of students. The third step in the continuous process, evaluation of outcomes, involves assessment of either continued development and/or increased student motivation and improved student learning. Research and teaching implications of the proposed model are also discussed.


The Distance Education Learning Model (Del), Gary "Lee" Frantz, James W. King May 2000

The Distance Education Learning Model (Del), Gary "Lee" Frantz, James W. King

Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication: Faculty Publications

The interface of education, technology, distance education, and change is very complex. As we examined the arena of distance education, we realized the usefulness of a systems approach as a powerful tool to connect and interrelate people, goals, organizations, and technologies in the educational playing field.

Banathy's core work (1968, 1992, 1995, 1996a, 199613) suggests an important model of the educational system as part of society--its larger suprasystem (see Figure 1). Through this model, he showed that education, as a lifelong process, is tied closely to the outputs, objectives, and purposes of other parts of society. This model simply shows …

Motivation And Recognition Preferences Of 4-H Volunteers, Susan Fritz, John E. Barbuto Jr., David Marx, Arlene Etling, Shawn Burrow Apr 2000

Motivation And Recognition Preferences Of 4-H Volunteers, Susan Fritz, John E. Barbuto Jr., David Marx, Arlene Etling, Shawn Burrow

Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication: Faculty Publications

This study explored motives and identified strategies for service recognition of a sample (714) of Nebraska 4-H organizational and project volunteer leaders. On average, volunteers sampled were 43 years of age, parents of children in 4-H, and had been involved as a 4-H member more than 7 years. Respondents were predominately motivated by affiliation, and, therefore, identified most strongly with volunteering because of a desire to help others, associate with youth, and to be with their children involved in 4-H. Volunteers preferred to be recognized for their service by 4-H members in various forms. No relationship was established between motives …


A Longitudinal Measure Of The Perceptual Impact Of A Cultural Diversity Teaching Practicum On The Interpersonal Competency Of Student Teachers, Lloyd C. Bell Apr 2000

A Longitudinal Measure Of The Perceptual Impact Of A Cultural Diversity Teaching Practicum On The Interpersonal Competency Of Student Teachers, Lloyd C. Bell

Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication: Faculty Publications

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the longitudinal effect of a planned in-school practicum experience addressing cultural diversity on the self perception of student teachers regarding their interpersonal competency in such situations. Subjects of the study were eighteen student teachers of agricultural education and six student teachers of family and consumer science enrolled in the Colleges of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources, and Human Resources and Family Sciences respectively. Evaluation was accomplished through the administration of a multi-cultural attitudinal inventory to all subjects prior to, immediately after, and at least one year after the experience. Subscale evaluation included …

Faculty Education, Assistance And Support Needed To Deliver Education Via Distance, S. Kay Rockwell, Jolene Schauer, Susan Fritz, David B. Marx

Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication: Faculty Publications

Faculty survey. Two-hundred seven faculty teaching academic courses and 30 administrators in two colleges in a mid-west university were surveyed to study the type of education, assistance, and support faculty feel they need to develop educational materials for distance delivery. One-fourth of these teaching faculty had taught via distance and another two-fifths (40%) expect to teach via distance within three to five years.

Findings. Overall faculty feel it is very important to obtain further education about, assistance with, or support for (a) developing interaction, (b) developing instructional materials, and (c) applying selected technologies. They also feel it is very important …

Incentives And Obstacles Influencing Higher Education Faculty And Administrators To Teach Via Distance, S. Kay Rockwell, Jolene Schauer, Susan Fritz, David B. Marx Jan 1999

Incentives And Obstacles Influencing Higher Education Faculty And Administrators To Teach Via Distance, S. Kay Rockwell, Jolene Schauer, Susan Fritz, David B. Marx

Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication: Faculty Publications

This study examined incentives that encourage faculty to develop educational opportunities via distance and obstacles that discourage them from doing so. The primary incentives centered on intrinsic or personal rewards. These rewards included opportunities to provide innovative instruction and apply new teaching techniques as well as self-gratification, fulfilling a personal desire to teach, recognition of their work, and peer recognition. Other incentives included extending educational opportunities beyond the traditional institutional walls so place-bound students have access and release time for faculty preparation. The major perceived obstacles related to time requirements, developing effective technology skills, and assistance and support needs. Monetary …

Leadership Education Courses And Programs In Departments Of Agricultural Education, Susan Fritz, F. William Brown Apr 1998

Leadership Education Courses And Programs In Departments Of Agricultural Education, Susan Fritz, F. William Brown

Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication: Faculty Publications

This national study of post-secondary departments of agricultural education examined leadership and human resource management/development course offerings, course characteristics, future department plans, backgrounds of faculty, and related outreach activities. The majority of the courses were offered for undergraduate credit and were predominately required courses for agricultural education department majors. Nearly half of the departments offering these courses characterized their courses as nontraditional. Departments not offering leadership courses cited a lack of resources, institutional impediments and resistance, and lack of student demand as reasons for not offering the courses. Nearly half of the faculty teaching leadership education courses had traditional agricultural …
