THINKING THROUGH CHILDREN: PROPOSING THEORY FOR DOING CRITICAL CONTENT ANALYSIS OF MULTICULTURAL CHILDREN’S LITERATURE by CARMEN MILAGROS SEDA, M.Ed., M.FA DISSERTATION Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at El Paso in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Teacher Education THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT EL PASO May 2020 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There are so many people I wish to acknowledge for their support throughout this journey. My committee supported me even when sea-spray from an ocean of knowledge filled mouth and nose and I almost drowned on my own confusion. Dr. Char Ullman, my chair, never lost faith in me, and taught me to let my vision guide my journey. Dr. Keith Polette equipped me with special tools to ensure that my vessel could navigate rough waters. Dr. Erika Mein taught me the importance of plotting a clear path and staying true to it. Dr. Katherine Mortimer helped me find my sea legs—no one warned me how slippery the deck could be. My mother, Dr. Milagros M. Seda, provisioned me with ambition and faith in the attainability of dreams. My father, Ramon, who passed before I finished, provisioned my tenacity. My patient daughter, Francis reads the night skies for opportunity. My brilliant granddaughters, Daniella, Gwendolynn, and Charlotte are the stars in the sky that shape the night into stories. And our warm-eyed friends Truffle, Moxie, Bizquits and Tess are ever in the margins. Many friends and colleagues also nurtured me through all that this journey entailed. My middle school family, Adriana, Michelle, Naomi, Laura, Yolanda, Rita, Stella, Mario and Dr. Kennedy taught me to tighten and tether the ropes. And the continued support of former colleagues, Alicia, Cris, Juanita, Cynthia, Perla and Jesus, helped me navigate troubled waters along the journey. My friends Sheryl, Lisa, Amit and Oliana, and my young friends Hëna and Thomas stayed in my heart despite the time and distance. And finally, I owe acknowledgement to the many scholars who mentored me from a distance with their insightful considerations about children, critical literacy, consciousness, and the moral underpinnings of our work. They are the lighthouses. v ABSTRACT Theoretical constructs underpinning critical content analysis (CCA) for multicultural children’s literature as a method for education as a field are currently drawn from critical literary theory. I problematize CCA methods based on claims by contributors that the methods are applicable for classroom educators, and can be applied during critical reading in classrooms with young readers. The change in audience and purpose warrants reflection on the extant theoretical underpinnings of CCA methods. Specifically, whether extant theories account for the mental life and psychoemotive needs of children and adolescents, especially as relates to agency analysis. Using a theoretical framework comprised of Childism (Young- Bruehl, 2012), imaginative education theory (Egan, 1997; Egan, Cant & Judson, 2014; Judson, 2018), and agency theory to include life course agency (Hitlin & Johnson, 2015), which I refer to as thinking through children, I analyze CCA methods and CCA studies identified for this study. Based on gaps, silences, and contradictions, I recommend archetypal analysis (Campbell, 1978; Hunter, 2008; Jung, 1969), and futures studies (Bussey, 2008; Inayatullah, 2004) to enhance analysis of subject position, character interaction, and agency to account for young readers psychoemotive needs, and to locate how power is portrayed in relation to an actor’s psychoemotive development. Finally, I construct a CCA study on an identified children's book representing a child of Mexican heritage. I employ the new theoretical tools to reflect on how the application of new theory affects analysis for power. Implications for developing CCA methods as a genre for multicultural children’s literature for education as a field are discussed. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS DEDICATION ............................................................................................................................... iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS .............................................................................................................v ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................................... vi TABLE OF CONTENTS .............................................................................................................. vii LIST OF TABLES ....................................................................................................................... xiv LIST OF FIGURES .......................................................................................................................xv CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION ...................................................................................................1 Background ......................................................................................................................................3 Historical Overview of Representation Research ...................................................................4 Issues in Cultural Authenticity................................................................................................6 Connecting Representation Research to Critical Content Analysis ........................................8 Critical Content Analysis (CCA) ...................................................................................................10 What is CCA? .......................................................................................................................11 Why Does CCA Matter? .......................................................................................................12 What Are the Limitations of CCA? ......................................................................................13 Statement of Problem .....................................................................................................................15 Significance of the Study ...............................................................................................................16 Terms and Definitions....................................................................................................................17 Delimitations and Limitations ........................................................................................................20 Delimitations and Limitations Based on My Stance as an Educator ....................................21 Delimitations and Limitations of the Design of the Study ...................................................22 Structure of the Study ....................................................................................................................23 Summary ........................................................................................................................................26 CHAPTER 2 - LITERATURE REVIEW: CCA METHODS .......................................................28 vii Theoretical Framework: Childism, Imaginative Education Theory, and Agency Theory ............29 Childism ................................................................................................................................31 Imaginative Education (IE) Theory ......................................................................................32 Egan’s cognitive tools. .................................................................................................33 The role of wonder. ......................................................................................................34 Qualitative differences in children’s mental life. .........................................................36 The role of mythic understanding. ...............................................................................37 Agency Theory......................................................................................................................38 Tenets Drawn from Childism, IE Theory and Agency Theory ............................................41 Major Contributions in CCA of Multicultural Children’s

  • Immigration Reform in Refugee and Asylum Policy
    NOTE IMMIGRATION REFORM IN REFUGEE AND ASYLUM POLICY: DISENTANGLING IMMIGRATION FROM THE NATIONAL SECURITY DISCOURSE Rachel Chernov* ABSTRACT After September 11, 2001, a large-scale overhaul of existing US immigration infrastructure fused immigration with the country’s national security apparatus. Enhanced national security efforts became characterized by increased immigration enforcement and were purportedly justified by government officials’ rhetoric portraying newcomers as a threat to public safety. The Trump Administration employed inflammatory anti-immigrant rhetoric to shore up popular support for harmful immigration policies, precluding the United States from fulfilling obligations to refugees and asylum-seekers under international law. This Note argues that the United States shares virtually none of the geopolitical challenges preventing certain countries from compliance with treaty obligations; however, rhetoric conflating immigration and national security results in immigration policy damaging to refugees and asylees seeking protection in the United States. This Note argues that the United States must work towards compliance with its international commitments by dismantling needlessly punitive immigration enforcement policies and abolishing xenophobic rhetoric, and by providing fair and full protection for the growing number of individuals displaced around the globe. * J.D. Candidate, 2021, Fordham University School of Law; B.A., 2018, Lehigh University; Notes & Articles Editor, Fordham International Law Journal, Volume XLIV. I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to the editorial staff of Volume XLIV for their guidance as I worked through writing and editing this Note. I would also like to thank my family for their continued support—especially my parents and grandparents, who uprooted their lives to come to the US, ultimately giving me the opportunity to attend law school and see my written work through to publication.

  • Thematic Content Analysis (TCA) 1 Descriptive Presentation of Qualitative Data
    Thematic Content Analysis (TCA) 1 Descriptive Presentation of Qualitative Data Rosemarie Anderson, PhD 2 Professor, Institute of Transpersonal Psychology (www.itp.edu) Consultant, Wellknowing Consulting (www.wellknowingconsulting.org) Introduction. Thematic Content Analysis (TCA) is a descriptive presentation of qualitative data. Qualitative data may take the form of interview transcripts collected from research participants or other identified texts that reflect experientially on the topic of study. While video, image, and other forms of data may accompany textural data, this description of TCA is limited to textural data. A number of software programs are available to automate the labeling and grouping of texts and are especially useful in the analysis of numerous transcripts. Generally speaking, though, Microsoft Word can be used effectively for most TCAs and the steps are described below. A satisfactory TCA portrays the thematic content of interview transcripts (or other texts) by identifying common themes in the texts provided for analysis. TCA is the most foundational of qualitative analytic procedures and in some way informs all qualitative methods. In conducting a TCA, the researcher’s epistemological stance is objective or objectivistic. In teaching Qualitative Research Methods, I describe TCA as a form of “low hovering” over the data. The researcher groups and distills from the texts a list of common themes in order to give expression to the communality of voices across participants. Every attempt reasonable is made to employ names for themes from the actual words of participants and to group themes in manner that directly reflects the texts as a whole. While sorting and naming themes requires some level of interpretation, “interpretation” is kept to a minimum.

WHY THERE SHOULD BE A LAW AGAINST U.S DOMESTIC TERRORISM A Global Studies Capstone Project Report Luis Maldonado 1 Professor Richard Harris May 8, 2020 Literature Review Terrorism is a broad term considering how it is used and to whom it is used to describe. It is used to describe mostly people not from the country that they commit acts of violence against, whether the attacks are political or not. This topic of domestic terrorism has a lot of significance because it is happening currently and only increasing the amount of violent attacks towards the civilian population. Is the US government combating it or trying to combat as much as it does with international terrorism? In the 2001 USA patriot act, terrorism is defined as “intimidate or coerce a civilian population; to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping.” (Levin, 2015).

  • Mutual Radicalisation of Opposing Extremist Groups Via the Internet
    PREPRINT Mutual radicalisation of opposing extremist groups via the Internet John D. Gallacher* Marc W. Heerdink Oxford Internet Institute Department of Social Psychology University of Oxford University of Amsterdam Abstract Social media has become a common arena for both far-right and Islamic extremist groups to stoke division through the spreading of propaganda and hate speech. This online hate is suggested to drive extremism online, and in some cases lead to offline hate crimes and violence. Whether this online radicalisation happens in isolation within a group, or whether there is an interdependent relationship of mutual radicalisation, is unclear. A possible process by which mutual radicalisation could occur would be if social media incite users to commit offline violence, and if this offline violence in return triggers online reactions from both the target and perpetrator groups. This however has not been tested. This study addresses these questions by investigating the nature of the online-offline relationship of extremist hate. We combine data from the social media platform Gab, variations in Internet search trends, and offline hate crimes in three countries, and test for temporal relationships between opposing extremist groups. Our findings show that online hate from far-right groups both precedes offline violence from these same groups, and spikes following offline violence from opposing Islamic extremist groups. Additionally, far-right Islamophobic violence offline is also followed by increased online interest in Islamic extremist
