Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: Leadership development is an essential and valuable tool for capacitating police leaders in the South African Police Service to deal with the diverse challenges that they face in the policing environment. There seem to be a need for leadership development processes that can stimulate change, and for perspective transformation to enable police leaders to find alternative ways of dealing with the challenges experienced in their working environment. This thesis explored transformative learning as a tool to enhance the leadership development processes of police leaders. The essential elements of transformative learning are: centrality of experience; critical thinking; rational discourse; and policy praxis. Theory development were chosen as best to carefully construct the foundational argument through non-empirical literary-based sources, in which the literature itself became the database towards theoretical formulation in this non-empirical study. The alignment and integration of the elements of transformative learning were explored as a strategy to capacitate police leaders to: reflect on past experiences; think critically about ways of dealing with policing challenges based on experiences; discuss these challenges with other police leaders; and act on reflections made during leadership development processes. The study is limited to the analysis of the status of leadership development in the South African Police Service, which was the context of this study.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Leierskapsontwikkeling is ‘n essensiële en waardevolle hulpmiddel om leiers in die Suid-Afrikaanse Polisiediens te bemagtig om die uiteenlopende uitdagings waarmee hulle te kampe het, beter te hanteer. Dit blyk egter dat daar ‘n behoefte is vir leierskapsontwikkelingprosesse wat intrinsieke verandering en ‘n paradigmaskuif vir polisieleiers te weeg kan bring en wat hulle in staat kan stel om die uitdagings binne hul beroepsveld meer doeltreffend te hanteer. Hierdie tesis ondersoek transformatiewe leerteorie as ‘n instrument om leierskapsontwikkeling van polisieleiers te bevorder. Die hoofelemente van transformatiewe leerteorie is: sentralisering van ondervinding; kritiese denke; rasionele diskoers en beleidsvorming. Teorie-ontwikkeling as navorsingsmetodologie was selekteer as die mees geskikste metodologie om die argument deur nie-empiriese literêre bronne te konstrueer, waarvolgens die gekose literatuur die databasis van die teoretiese formulasie rondom die argument gevorm het in hierdie nie-empiriese studie. Groepering en integrasie van bogenoemde elemente was ondersoek as ‘n strategie om polisieleiers te bemagtig om te reflekteer oor vorige ondervindinge; kritiese denkwyses oor hantering van uitdagings in beroepsveld met inagneming van vorige ondervindinge toe te pas; diskoers oor uitdagings met ander polisieleiers te hê en om aktief te reageer op refleksies tydens leierskapsontwikkelingsprosesse. Die studie is beperk tot die analise van die status van leierskap in die Suid-Afrikaanse Polisiediens as konteks waarbinne hierdie studie onderneem is.

Find full textPerforming autoethnographic explorations as curriculum development strategies, and using autoethnographic modes (e.g., storytelling) as curriculum, may provide queer multicultural social justice education curriculum workers, and explorers, with opportunities to explore their own multicultural identities (e.g., race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, exceptionality, religion, sexual orientation, and gender), how their identities may intersect with curriculum development, and their stories alongside those of others. In Part One, I tell three (hi)stories highlighting how multicultural education, queer theory, and autoethnography support the practice of identity awareness (of self and others). In Part Two, I share nine explorations developed for this project, along with my performances and reflections of each exploration, which include how performing the explorations impacted their development. Finally, in Part Three, I apply these ideas to my practice of becoming a queer educator. I reflect on some of the tensions I wrestled with, on being aware of myself as a teacher and a student simultaneously, and on my use of language and curriculum development practices. In sum, I advocate for queering autoethnography and using it for curriculum development—thus, simultaneously queering the act of curriculum development—for the purposes of developing identity awareness (of self and others) and of honing queer multicultural social justice education curriculum development practices. During your engagement with this text, I invite the reader to reflect on these practices, perform the explorations, and ponder how these explorations may impact your curriculum development practices. I also encourage you to share your stories.
(6732872), Bernard W. Wulle. "The Perceptions of Flight Instructors Regarding the Application of Multiple Intelligences Theory in Flight Training." Thesis, 2019.
Find full textFor several decades, educators have used Howard Gardner’s (1983) Multiple Intelligences Theory in a variety of ways to make teaching and learning more effective. However, within flight instruction, little or no attention has been focused on the concept of Multiple Intelligences and their impacts on student learning and retention. Consequently, the purpose of this study was to determine if Certified Flight Instructors (CFI) who have been provided with information about Multiple Intelligences perceived a positive relationship between their new knowledge about Multiple Intelligences and their instructional effectiveness. The study used participant journals, focus groups, and individual interviews to determine if CFIs perceived Multiple Intelligences Theory to be valuable when applied to flight instruction. The results indicated that the participants believed Multiple Intelligences Theory added value to their flight instruction. Implications for practice and directions for future research are provided.

Find full textThis dissertation explored South Korea’s efforts in implementing multicultural education through examining how various stakeholders interpreted and applied multicultural education in relation to creating alternative schools for international marriage migrant women and children of multicultural families. In this research, I discussed multicultural education in South Korea through the lens of US multicultural education theories applied to the South Korean context. I employed the methodology of narrative inquiry to examine (1) two models of alternative multicultural schools for diverse learners, (2) four Korean educators’ perspectives on multicultural education and diverse learners (two of educators were additional participants whose insights were included), and (3) the learning experiences of two marriage migrant women who are mothers.
I applied narrative inquiry by creating narrative as stories (Polkinghorne, 1995). I interviewed six participants over two and half months. The data was transcribed, translated and read iteratively in order to recount rich stories (Clandinin & Connelly, 2000). I created profiles of four participants and narratives of their varied experiences to understand the experience of Korean teachers and international marriage migrant women. Other forms of data included field-notes, document collection (e.g., the alternative school’s curriculum, a Korean government proposal for funding alternative schools, flyers/brochures of two alternative schools), physical artifacts (e.g., photos of events and activities and the text messages of interactions with students and teachers via Korean messenger applications), research journal reflections, and observations of schools and classrooms.
From my analysis,
I identified challenges in the implementation of multicultural education in
South Korea. First, the current state of the Korean education system is in the
process of integrating ideas of multicultural education in its implementation.
This ongoing process has culminated in various challenges, frustrations,
opportunities, and hopes. Some of the
challenges and frustrations for Korean teachers were insufficient teaching
resources and the lack of awareness of multicultural education in both
alternative and public schools. I also found that marriage migrant women
utilized educational opportunities gained through alternative schooling to
navigate and reposition themselves to fulfill what they deem as their role as
women in Korean society. This research provides insights into multicultural
education building a deeper understanding of educational approaches to
alternative education for diverse populations in South Korea and around the
globe.

Find full textThe Elon Research Seminar, Critical Transitions: Writing and the Question of Transfer, was a coalition of rhetoric and composition scholars’ attempt at codifying writing transfer knowledge for teaching and research purposes. Although the seminar was an important leap in transfer research, many ‘behind the scenes’ decisions of writing transfer, often those not involving the writing program, go unnoticed, yet play a pivotal role in how writing programs encourage and reproduce writing transfer in the classroom. This dissertation study, inspired by a pilot study conducted in Fall 2018 on writing across the curriculum programs and their role in writing transfer, illustrates how an institution’s context systems (e.g., macrosystem, mesosystem, microsystem, etc.) affect writing programs’ processes—i.e., curriculum components, assessment, and administrative structure and budget—and vice versa. Using Bronfenbrenner and Morris’ (2006) bioecological model, I show how writing programs and their context systems interact to reproduce writing transfer practices. Through ten interviews with writing program administrators at state comprehensive universities, I delineate specific actions that each writing program could take to encourage writing transfer. I develop a list of roles and responsibilities a university’s context systems play in advocating writing transfer practices. The results of the study show that research beyond the writing classroom and students is necessary to understand how writing transfer opportunities arise in university cultures of writing.
(9155498), Daniel C. Ernst. "The Android English Teacher: Writing Education in the Age of Automation." Thesis, 2020.
Find full textIn an era of widespread automation—from grocery store self-checkout machines to self-driving cars—it is not outrageous to wonder: can teachers be automated? And more specifically, can automated computer teachers instruct students how to write? Automated computer programs have long been used in summative writing evaluation efforts, such as scoring standardized essay exams, ranking placement essays, or facilitating programmatic outcomes assessments. However, new claims about automated writing evaluation’s (AWE) formative educational potential mark a significant shift. My project questions the effectiveness of using AWE technology for formative educational efforts such as improving and teaching writing. Taken seriously, these efforts portend a future embrace of semi, or even fully, automated writing classes, an unprecedented development in writing pedagogy.
Supported by a summer-long grant from the Purdue Research Foundation, I conducted a small-n quasi-experiment to test claims by online college tutoring site Chegg.com that its EasyBib Plus AWE tool can improve both writing and writers. The experiment involved four college English instructors reading pairs of essays comprising one AWE-treated and untreated version per pair. Using a comparative judgment model, a rubric-free method of writing assessment based on Thurstone’s law, raters read and designated one of each pair “better.” Across four raters and 160 essays, I found that AWE-treated essays were designated better only 30% of the time (95% confidence interval: 20-40%), a statistically significant difference from the null hypothesis of 50%. The results suggest that Chegg’s EasyBib Plus tool offers no discernible improvement to student writing, and potentially even worsens it.
Finally, I analyze Chegg’s recent partnership with the Purdue Writing Lab and Online Writing Lab (OWL). The Purdue-Chegg partnership offers a useful test case for anticipating the effects of higher education’s embrace of automated educational technology going forward. Drawing on the history of writing assessment and the results of the experiment, I argue against using AWE for formative writing instruction. In an era of growing automation, I maintain that a human-centered pedagogy remains one of the most durable, important, effective, and transformative ingredients of a quality education.

Find full textThe
purpose of this study was to investigate the participation of cisgender
collegiate men in community engagement activities. As a group, collegiate men
disproportionately engage in unhealthy behaviors compared to their female
counterparts. Additionally, they are less likely to participate in community
engagement activities. Community engagement activities have a multitude of
benefits for both male and female college students, yet national data shows
that college men are more likely to play video games or sports when given the
choice. This qualitative study used a narrative inquiry method and ten
participants were interviewed using a semi-structured process. Several themes
from the participants’ narratives emerged including 1) having an insular group that is
representative of individual values; 2) commitment to service is deeply
entrenched into career or life goals; 3) complex relationship between service
and fraternity; and 4) importance of childhood and boyhood as it relates to
identity; matriculated masculinity. The study encouraged reconsidering the
definition of service and the power of student voice. This study contributes to several interwoven threads
of scholarship focusing on the experiences of collegiate males, community
engagement, and masculinity. Results suggest implications for higher education
practitioners to more effectively support the needs of college men as well as
considering new ways to engage more college men in community engagement
activities.

Find full textInnovations in technology are changing not only everyday life for many individuals around the world but are also influencing the expansion of online learning opportunities at an accelerated rate (Collins & Halverson, 2018; Mah, 2016). Online learning platforms allow for scalability, flexibility, greater global access, and innovative and new ways to deliver education (Goodman, Melkers, & Pallais, 2019; Kizilcec et al., 2019). Enrollments in online learning programs and opportunities have seen significant growth in recent years (Seaman, Allen, & Seaman, 2018; U.S. Department of Education, 2018) with continued and steady growth expected into the future. The ubiquity and newness of new online learning formats present a challenge in linking research and practice. Through three separate academic papers, the following dissertation discusses and considers key questions and topics with regards to the use of digital badges and Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), two types of emerging online innovations and platforms, and aspects of their efficacy. The three papers respectively 1) identify and discuss the theoretical and empirical foundations digital badges use in specific learners groups by reviewing current literature; 2) highlight the application of a use case in which digital badges have been implemented as a means to offer training; and 3) explore the perceptions of MOOC instructors toward quality learning in their courses in a case study. Conclusions are drawn and solutions as well as potential future directions for research and practice of discussed.
