Leaflet: Educational Research Made Approachable

We’re back! This episode is all about the effects of experiential education programs, those that take students out of the classroom and into a new learning environment, such as a museum or learning center. This is a summary and review of an article titled Museums as Classrooms: The Academic and Behavioral Impacts of “School in the Park,” conducted by Johanna Lacoe of UC Berkeley, as well as Gary D. Painter and Danielle Williams of USC.

When the social and technological landscapes change rapidly or dramatically, art and literature change alongside them. James B. Carter discusses this phenomenon in a contemporary context, addressing the technologies that have empowered authors to develop “multimodal reading experiences,” as well as the subsequent restructuring of social conventions, which has created a new “tradition of interaction in young adult literature. ~ Merchandise: https://teespring.com/stores/thethumbthrough YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC456j-LX9UqPFwhvZJaLNdQ Twitter: https://twitter.com/jeshuadnoel --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thumbthrough/support

The literature on diversity and inclusion in young adult literature is plentiful. It is often rich in emotional impact and meticulous in its attention to detail. However, outside of acknowledgement and advocacy, what high quality work is actively being done to provide readers with characters and experiences representative of widely varying background, and what does it look like? Antero Garcia, editor of The Journal of Adolescent and Adult Literacy, addresses these questions in his 2017 article, “Worlds of Inclusion: Challenging Reading, Writing, and Publishing Science Fiction and Fantasy-Based Young Adult Literature.” --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thumbthrough/support

How Writing Shapes Thinking: A Study of Teaching and Learning was written by Judith Langer and Arthur Applebee and published in 1987 by the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE). This collaborative work is concerned primarily with the contributions of written language to learning processes and cognitive development. Applebee and Langer argue that writing allows for careful consideration and articulation of ideas, demands organization of thought, and encourages meaningful reflection on one’s ideas. Thus, the teaching of writing impacts the “thinking requirements” for students.

Genetics research is becoming more prominent and beginning to intersect with education research. While many previous intersections have been harmful, the current era of genetic research provides novel features and possibilities. Collaboration between those in the social and biomedical sciences could be the key to regulations and research designs that emphasize equity. This study comes from researchers who disagree about the promises and pitfalls of the involvement of genetics research in education research, with the goal of building a productive dialogue on the topic. These researchers do agree, however, that more in the education research community should be aware of the history and current realities and potential of genetics research, especially with regard to molecular genetic data.

Today we review the studies from each chapter we've looked at so far, as well as the conclusions drawn in the end. Much beyond the English classroom, writing supports more complex thinking and learning about the subjects that students are expected to learn. Written language makes a contribution to content learning and can support the more complex kind of reasoning that is increasingly necessary in our complex information-based culture. Thoughtful argument must be prioritized over simple recitation. Students must be judged on how they reason and learn in addition to what they know. These expectations must be communicated clearly to students and to the community.

Lots and lots to talk about... An online campaign named #ClearTheList is spreading on Instagram to help people pitch in to stock a teacher’s classroom for the start of the school year. The office of a black employee at the Department of Education was allegedly vandalized earlier this week in an event that some department employees are calling a racist incident. Australia's most populous state said it will ax a Chinese-funded education program that teaches Mandarin in schools amid fears over potential foreign influence. Enduring less-than-ideal living conditions is something of a rite of passage for many college students. While the cost of higher education keeps rising, though, outpacing inflation every year since 1985, maintenance of student dormitories at many institutions has not always kept up. In interviews and exchanges with dozens of students across the country, heating and cooling issues were the most frequent complaints. But some reported much more serious problems, including vermin and mold. President Trump signed a measure on Wednesday that seeks to remove the bureaucratic barriers for permanently disabled veterans to qualify for student loan forgiveness, which he said would save 25,000 wounded warriors an average of $30,000.

Bastian and Fuller set out to examine schools with varying start times, with the goal of answering two important questions. Do later high school start times predict students’ engagement with school and their achievement in school? Do later high school start times have larger impacts on the engagement and achievement outcomes of disadvantaged student subgroups? They examined a diverse set of students and schools across urban and rural settings, including 410 unique high schools and 770,623 individual students.
