Library instruction often involves one-shot sessions where librarians interact with students for a short period of time and are then left wondering what the students thought of the session and if students perceive the session as helpful for their course work. Using two surveys to gather data, this study compared student perceptions of a redesigned library curriculum and of their own information literacy skills immediately after attending a library workshop and six weeks later after completing a research paper. The findings indicate that the library workshop is meeting student needs and has a lasting effect. Additionally, the researchers found that students were better able to articulate gaps in their own knowledge after having the opportunity to apply their skills to a research assignment. The researchers recommend that librarians using surveys to inform one-shot curricular changes gather data after students have applied the skills and knowledge gained in the instruction session. 相似文献

After April 16, 2007, Hokies United needed to heal itself and the Virginia Tech community. About Campus editorial assistant Brianne MacEachran interviewed Steve Schneiter, a faculty co‐creator of the campus group that has organized responses to tragedies since the events of September 11, 2001, about managing suffering, this time their own. 相似文献

ABSTRACTThis articles describes a year-long self-study in cultural competence. Armed with the understanding that “teachers first need to know their own cultures,” a small group of faculty researchers engaged in systematic self-study to better understand their own cultural competence in an effort to enhance teacher candidates’ cultural competencies. The overarching goals of the study were: for faculty researchers to better understand their own cultural competence and for faculty researchers to better understand their ability to create safe spaces in which teacher candidates could develop deeper understandings of their cultural competencies. Hence the faculty researchers worked collaboratively for the broader purposes of re-imaging classrooms as communities that foster new and more equitable opportunities for teaching and learning. 相似文献

The challenges faced today by U.S. colleges and universities have been accelerated by the current economic downturn, but they
are not the result of it. Consequently, we should not expect a sudden reversal of fortune when the economy rebounds. Changing
demographics and spending priorities coupled with increasing competition and demands for accountability mean that universities
face a “new normal” in which they must embrace a clear vision of the future, including access and opportunity for all learners
and a culture of entrepreneurship and service. 相似文献

Crisis communication research establishes the importance of relationships between organizations and their publics. While theoretical treatments and case studies support this relationship, limited empirical investigations have examined how organizational responses to crisis influence public responses. This study sought to determine if grocery shoppers responded differently to organizations engaging in crisis communication practices and those that do not. Results indicate that respondents express stronger intention to continue purchasing from an organization and see the organization as concerned and respectful of the consumer when it engages in crisis communication practices. The discussion section addresses implications of these findings for future research and public relations practice. 相似文献

This article describes the development, implementation, and outcomes of a pilot intervention designed to enhance preschool
programs’ ability to support children’s social-emotional development. Working with two Head Start programs, the intervention
included (1) restructuring existing early childhood mental health consultation services; (2) engaging programs in a mental
health-specific strategic planning; (3) providing training to program staff in early childhood mental health best practices;
and (4) implementing staff wellness activities to promote a healthy organizational culture. Research Findings: Results from
quantitative staff surveys found significant improvement over time in terms of reduced staff stress, increased levels of understanding
of best practices in early childhood mental health, and more evidence of a shared understanding of how best to meet children’s
mental health needs. Results were strongest for management and teaching staff, compared to other staff types. Practice Implications:
Head Start and preschool programs may benefit from institutionalizing strategies to ensure that continued attention is paid
to their program’s mental health services through ongoing strategic planning, supporting staff wellness, and by effective
use of mental health consultants. Mental health consultants may be most valuable when they focus on capacity-building activities
such as staff coaching and training, and working with management teams to ensure a collective “mental health perspective”. 相似文献

Do early childhood education and care (ECEC) professionals make good advocates? Canadian advocates have fought for better child care policies since the mid-1940s. What has happened to this advocacy with the recent increased professionalization of the ECEC sector? How does increased professionalization limit, innovate or expand advocacy strategies? This content analysis of seven Canadian child care social movement organizations’ discursive resources in 2008 examines how different types of child care social movement organizations communicated their positions to their members and the public to manage a changing economic and political climate. Preliminary findings indicate that both ECEC workforce sector associations and grassroots organizations shared common advocacy messages, played down problems associated with a market approach to child care, and framed child care as a business case in their messaging. The authors suggest this reflects a nascent discursive move towards the professionalization of Canadian child care movement advocacy messages. 相似文献

AbstractSince the eighteenth century, the traditional Okinawan art of Shotokan karate has transformed into a global sport. The violent history of Okinawa in the late 1700s led to the art’s initial creation. In its early years, karate was banned by the government and all practice of it had to take place in secret. Karate was practiced just in Okinawa for over a century. The spread of karate into Japan in 1922 initiated its move towards a Western migration. Through a combination of mass media and the experience of spectators and practitioners, karate spread around the globe. In 1970, international karate competitions began to take place. This initiated the popularization of the sport of karate, introducing more changes to the sport based on the preferences of the spectators. The World Karate Federation (WKF) and the International Olympic Committee (IOC) together took this art and created an Olympic sport. 相似文献

ABSTRACTUltra-cushioning (ULTRA) shoes are new to the running shoe market. Several studies have evaluated kinematics and kinetics while running in ULTRA shoes, however it remains unknown how such shoes influence joint coordination. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate lower extremity coordination and coordination variability when running in minimalist (MIN), traditional (NEUT) and ULTRA shoes. Fifteen runners ran for ten minutes in each shoe type. Coordination patterns and coordination variability were assessed for rearfoot-tibia, rearfoot-knee, and tibia-knee couplings using a modified vector coding method during early, mid, and late stance periods. During late stance ULTRA shoes resulted in more antiphase coordination than MIN (p =.036) or NEUT (p =.047) shoes and less in-phase coordination than MIN (p =.048) or NEUT (p =.013) shoes. During late stance there was also more proximal phase rearfoot-knee coordination in ULTRA shoes than in either MIN (p =.039) or NEUT (p =.005) shoes and less in-phase coordination in ULTRA shoes than in NEUT shoes (p =.006). There were no differences in coordination variability between shoes during any phase. The differences in coordination may have implications for tissue loading and injury development when running in ULTRA shoes.. 相似文献
