Full textThe College Union is a campus facility that is part of the campus ecology. It provides a place where all can feel a sense of inclusion, safety, involvement, and community. Through a comparative research approach I will present how both students and professional staff perceive the College Union, the programs that are part of the facility, and how it impacts the retention of students. This investigation draws upon psychology, behavioral sciences and the liberal arts disciplines as they relate to learning spaces, campus ecology, and the building of community through involvement.
This study is a two phased mixed method research design with the primary data collection conducted electronically using web-based survey tools for both professional staff (N=562) with a response of 113 individuals, and 50 student respondents (N=1,971). Follow-up interviews were conducted with two participants at schools that were randomly selected from the survey participants who completed a construction or renovation project in their College Union in the past five years (N=21).
There is a synergy that became evident between Boyer's 6 Principles of Community (1990), the ACUI Core Competencies (2005), and common themes that came out of my literature review, survey results, and the interviews conducted as a follow-up to the surveys. Through the application of a grounded theory approach, this study presents the Six Principles of College Union Efficacy that support retention on college campuses. Tierno's 6 Principles of College Union Efficacy The College Union: 1. Supports the academic mission of the institution 2. Enhances communication of community values 3. Is a diverse space on campus 4. Is a Community Center 5. Is a Welcoming Place 6. Celebrates Traditions (Tierno, 2013)

Full textResource consumption continues to increase as the population grows. In order to secure a sustainable future, society must educate the next generation to become "sustainability natives." Schools play a pivotal role in educating a sustainability-literate society. However, a disconnect exists between the hidden curriculum of the built environment and the enacted curriculum. This study employs a transformative participatory professional development model to instruct teachers on how to use their school grounds as teaching tools for the purpose of helping students make explicit choices in energy consumption, materials use, and sustainable living.
Incorporating a phenomenological perspective, this study considers the lived experience of two sustainability coordinators. Grounded theory provides an interpretational context for the participants' interactions with each other and the professional development process. Through a year long professional development experience - commencing with an intense, participatory two-day workshop -the participants discussed challenges they faced with integrating facilities into school curriculum and institutionalizing a culture of sustainability.
Two major needs were identified in this study. For successful sustainability initiatives, a hybrid model that melds top-down and bottom-up approaches offers the requisite mix of administrative support, ground level buy-in, and excitement vis-à-vis sustainability. Second, related to this hybrid approach, K-12 sustainability coordinators ideally need administrative capabilities with access to decision making, while remaining connected to students in a meaningful way, either directly in the classroom, as a mentor, or through work with student groups and projects.

Full textSchool facilities issues in rural America and the resources to remedy them are made more complex by rural population trends, building deterioration and inadequacies, financial constraints, and education policy. The challenge for rural districts is to generate the revenues required to build or renovate school facilities. The resulting long-term underfunding of school facilities has left a pattern of crumbling school buildings across rural communities. Rural school districts, particularly those with older structures, need to improve energy efficiency of buildings and upgrade building infrastructure to support new technology
This case study was conducted to ascertain and gain an understanding of the decision-making process of a rural school board as it related to policy and funding for construction, renovation, and maintenance of school facilities. A review of the literature, to understand why rural schools are often in deteriorating condition, revealed a limited scope of research addressing rural education. Kingdon’s (1984) Agenda-Setting Theory provided the conceptual framework for the analysis of the board of education’s complex decisions made, both collectively and individually. Applied was Kingdon’s The Three Streams Model to understand what factors influenced board members when making financial and policy decisions for school facilities.
This single case study utilized field research methods to collect interview data and documents for archival analysis. Interviews were conducted with the school board members who made the decisions for the capital building project investigated in this study.
A key finding in this study was how changes in district leadership and the shifting mood of the school board precipitated the initiation of a policy and reinforced the chances for survival. This finding was particularly true in respect of financial feasibility, which did, in fact, result in enabling the policy to become a building project. This case study serves as a foundation for continued analysis. To connect the larger themes of rural school facility issues with decision making, policy development, and the effects of changing social-economic dynamics shaping the rural school agenda locally, statewide, and nationally.

Full textExtending sites of education is an architectural design-research project that takes a typological approach to the upgrade of existing old-stock public schools in Cape Town. The focus is on parallel linear-block type schools built in neighbourhoods in the 1960s-80s. The defining decision was to extend existing schools, both spatially and programmatically, through a set of patterns that have relevance at multiple sites of similar condition. Rather than design a model, which may compound the problem of a-contextual school buildings, the project explores an architectural strategy that balances between the generic and the particular. Thus, although the design elements may be replicable, the architectural intervention helps to ground the school in its urban context. The new programme is intended to support and broaden the existing schools to enrich their role as places of learning and create opportunity for the campus to be shared with the community. Montagu's Gift Primary School in Grassy Park was selected as a case study to exemplify this approach.

Full textOBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to determine the effect of an education program in regards to pharmacy students’ knowledge and confidence regarding osteoporosis management. METHODS: This was a pretest/posttest study of data obtained through surveys given to pharmacy students’ at the Phoenix and Tucson campuses. The education program administered was generated by the Arizona Osteoporosis Coalition. RESULTS: A total of 19 pharmacy students were surveyed in Tucson and Phoenix, AZ. When the knowledge questions were analyzed (questions 1 through 7), the t-score obtained was 4.7914 (p<0.05). This score was larger than the t-critical value for a 95% confidence interval. When the confidence questions were analyzed (questions 8 through 10), the t-scores obtained were 0.6849, 0.5945, and 0.2287, respectively. These scores did not reach statistical significance (p>0.05). The intervention proved to increase knowledge but did not increase confidence. CONCLUSIONS: The education program on osteoporosis management increased pharmacy students’ knowledge on this disease state. Other education programs targeting various disease states may also increase students knowledge, further preparing them to provide quality patient care.

Full textOBJECTIVES: To assess a student pharmacist administered osteoporosis education program given to assisted living facility staff members in order to evaluate the impact of the program on the staffs’ knowledge and attitudes about osteoporosis treatment and prevention. METHODS: The study consisted of a pre-test/post-test design to evaluate data obtained through surveys administered at assisted living facilities in the Phoenix, Arizona area. The primary dependent variables were knowledge and confidence levels of the staff in regards to osteoporosis management. The surveys included multiple choice questions that measured knowledge of osteoporosis prevention and treatment, as well as Likert-scale questions to measure confidence levels. Mean scores were calculated and paired t- tests were used to compare scores of pre-test versus post-test answers. RESULTS: Surveys were completed by 5 participants. Sixty percent of the staff members were female and the mean age was 36 years old (SD 9.90). Eighty percent of the sample were certified nurse assistants. The mean pre-test score for the knowledge portion of the survey was 3.6 and the mean post-test score was 4.8 (p=0.18). The mean pre-test score on the participants confidence levels was 11.2 and the mean post-test score was 11.8 (p=0.37). Overall, the participants rated the value of the program a mean of 7.6 out of 8 possible points. CONCLUSIONS: Although not statistically significant, knowledge and confidence levels of osteoporosis management were raised in assisted living facility staff members after a student pharmacist administered presentation on the subject.

Full textEsta dissertação foi realizada na área de conhecimento Psicologia e Sociedade, dentro da linha de pesquisa Infância e Realidade Brasileira, no programa de Pós Graduação em Psicologia da Universidade Estadual Paulista – campus de Assis. Em nossa cultura, a tarefa de educar e cuidar de crianças é vista como um comportamento ou uma função natural da mulher. Esta idéia contribuiu para a delimitação dos espaços e das práticas profissionais femininas, contaminando a identidade profissional das trabalhadoras de creche com a figura doméstica e as práticas da maternagem. Entretanto, essa e tantas outras tarefas e características atribuídas como naturais à mulher foram construídas ao longo da história da nossa cultura e da nossa sociedade. A partir da regulamentação da Lei de Diretrizes e Bases, em 1996, as creches no Brasil passaram a compor formalmente, junto com as pré-escolas, a Educação Infantil – primeira etapa do sistema educacional brasileiro. Contudo, a literatura tem revelado a permanência de uma compreensão assistencialista de creche, acompanhada por práticas baseadas no senso comum, na maternagem inata e na desprofissionalização das pessoas (geralmente mulheres) que aí atuam. Neste sentido, têm surgido diversos trabalhos acadêmicos voltados para a superação deste quadro, especialmente quanto à formação de educadores para estes contextos. Porém, além dos educadores formais, as instituições educacionais públicas contam com equipes de auxiliares (cozinheiras, serventes, técnicos de enfermagem, entre outros) que, pela natureza do seu trabalho, interagem com as crianças pequenas em diversas situações cotidianas. Esses contatos não se restringem às suas funções precípuas e atendem às necessidades imediatas das crianças: conversam, transmitem valores e saberes, tornando-se...
This dissertation took place in major area of Psychology and Society, in the branch of Childhood and Brazilian Reality, at the Post Graduation program of Psychology in Paulistan State University – Assis campus. In our culture, the tasks of educating and taking care of children are seen as a natural woman behavior or function. That idea contributed to a feminine space and professional practice delimitation, which contaminates the professional identity of childcare facilities workers with a domestic picture and maternity care. However, those ones and many others tasks and characteristics attributed to a woman as natural had been built throughout history of our culture and society. From the regulation of the Law of Guidelines and Bases, in 1996, the childcare facilities in Brazil had formally become component, with the preschool, of the Infantile Education, first stage of the Brazilian educational system. Nevertheless, the literature has shown a permanence of a charitable understanding on the childcare facilities function, accompanied by common sense based practices, the innate motherhood and the nonprofessionalization of people (usually women) who work there. Accordingly, there have been many scholarly works aimed to overcome this situation, especially regarding the educator formation in these contexts. But besides the formal educators, public educational institutions have teams of assistants (cooks, nurses ...) which, by nature of their job, interact with children in many situations everyday. In these contacts, they are not restricted to their main duties and meet the immediate needs of children: talk, transmit values and knowledge, becoming co-responsible...

Full textThe importance of maternal health care services cannot be stressed enough. Maternal health services are important in reducing pregnancy-related complications as well as maternal and infant deaths. This study was concerned with investigating the relationship between maternal education and maternal health care utilization. Furthermore, the study aimed to investigate the rates of maternal health care use, the reasons for non-use of maternal health services, as well as the determinants of maternal health care use. Primary data was used from selected areas (Tsolo, Qumbu and Mqanduli), which fall within the O.R. Tambo district in the Eastern Cape Province. Simple random sampling was used (with a structured questionnaire) to study maternal health care use among the sampled women. To analyse this data, univariate, bivariate, and multivariate techniques were employed. The results indicated that maternal education was not statistically significant with antenatal and postnatal services, but the percentages were important in explaining the use of maternal health care services in relation to maternal education. Women with higher levels of education reported higher rates of antenatal and delivery care utilization, while those with lower levels of education reported higher rates of postnatal care use. Access factors, such as transport, payment and distance to health facilities, also played an important role in the use of maternal health care services. It was recommended that the Department of Health implement mobile clinics and centralize health care facilities as this will bring essential health services closer to the communities. Women in the study area also need to be educated about the importance of these services, more particularly pertaining to postnatal care.
