Stewart OCLC number: 4363342 Abstract- Three mail questionnaires were employed in this survey. They were sent to 221 principals in West Virginia public secondary schools, 83 journalism teachers and 41 guidance counselors. It was found that 84 secondary schools currently offered journalism. In 81 of these 84 schools, principals reported that the course is offered as a separate elective. Many schools were found to offer one course in journalism and the average number of students enrolled in journalism classes was 20. Many teachers considered journalism on the high school level primarily important for its production of the school paper and as a motivation for student writing. Three-fourths of the guidance counselors answering the questionnaires state that journalism was offered in their schools to only juniors and seniors, and nearly one-half rated available journalism information as “inadequate.” The questionnaires strongly indicated that the image of journalism needs to be strengthened to earn a more favorable position in the school curriculums in the state of West Virginia. ADAMS, DAVID LEE A study of Kansas scholastic newspaper content and management practices in a First Amendment context Kansas State University, 1984, 174 pages, Dissertation, Advisor: Sam Keys Dissertation number: 8428961/ProQuest document ID: 751351541/OCLC number: 65641393 Abstract- The content of the scholastic press in American public high schools has changed greatly in recent years. This study was designed to determine the existing content and management practices of Kansas public high school newspapers. The sample consisted of the principal, the faculty adviser, and the student editor at 75 randomly selected schools that publish newspapers. Subjects responded to a 15-item questionnaire. The study sought to examine differences among three enrollment groups and three subject groups to questionnaire responses. The chi-square statistical test was used to determine significance at the .01 or .05 levels. 1 The descriptive study was divided into four research components: (1) newspaper background, (2) newspaper content, (3) newspaper management/press law knowledge, and (4) ensuring responsible newspapers and adviser background/selection. Thirteen research questions were answered, including these findings: (1) larger school newspapers have broader content and better-trained advisers than do the smaller schools; (2) student newspaper editors are not allowed to exercise their First Amendment rights to make the newspaper a true "forum for student expression"; (3) most school newspapers have not published “irresponsible” content, but most have content areas "not adequately covered"; (4) most respondents lack knowledge on scholastic press law, while most newspapers operate without written content guidelines; (5) a knowledgeable faculty adviser and talented student staff are the best ways to ensure responsible newspapers; and (6) a majority of mid-size and small school advisers appear to not meet minimum Kansas journalism certification requirements. It is recommended that: (1) newspaper editors and faculty advisers be encouraged to broaden newspaper content to include social, political and non-school issues affecting students; (2) student editors be given more direct control over newspaper content as mandated by federal courts; (3) faculty advisers and student editors be allowed to expand the content scope of newspapers; (4) school officials and student editors develop written newspaper content guidelines and become knowledgeable on student press law; (5) school officials encourage responsible newspapers by providing needed resources; and (6) administrators select qualified faculty newspaper advisers and encourage those who are not to work rapidly toward proper certification. ADAMS, EZRA JOHN Journalism instruction in Louisiana high schools and colleges Louisiana State University, 1964, Thesis, Advisor: Frank J. Price Abstract- To learn what is being done about journalism instruction in Louisiana, a survey was made in the high schools, colleges and universities. A series of questionnaires were sent to superintendents of parish, city and Catholic diocese school systems, to the colleges and universities, and to the individual high school journalism instructors. A brief questionnaire went to superintendents of education in 10 other states, for a comparison. There were interviews and correspondence with education personnel from local to state levels. It was found that journalism in Louisiana has not yet gained recognition as a separate course in many instances and is generally misunderstood by non-journalists.

AJUNWA, KELECHI It’s our school too: Youth activism as educational reform, 1951-1979 Temple University, 2011, 247 pages, Dissertation, Advisor: William W. Cutler Dissertation number: 3474827/ProQuest document ID: 898984727/OCLC number: 864885257 Abstract- Activism has the potential for reform (Howard, 1976). Unlike previous studies on high school activism this study places a primary focus on underground newspapers and argues that underground newspapers allowed high school students to function as activists as well as educational reformers. In order to make this argument, this study examined over 150 underground newspapers and other primary source publications. The goals and tactics of high school activists evolved from the 1950s to the 1970s. During this time there were some shifts in ideologies, strategies, and priorities that were influenced by both an ever-increasing student frustration with school leaders and by outside historical events. Underground newspapers captured the shift that occurred in the objectives and tactics of student activists. As a result, the contents of underground newspapers were the primary focus of this study. The study reveals that there were three types of student activists: “incidental” activists who simply wanted to change individual school policies, “intentional” activists who wanted high school students to have greater authority and autonomy in schools, and lastly, “radical” activists who desired an end to oppression of people based on race, class, sex, and age. The evidence overwhelmingly indicates that for the most part incidental, intentional, and radical student activists were all working towards improving their high schools. This common goal was pivotal in the development of a Youth Empowerment social movement, which would be born out of the actions of all three types of high school activists. Incidental activists were the focal point of attention for school administrators in the 1950s, however; intentional and radical activists would take center stage by the late 1960s. Throughout the 1970s intentional and radical activists would overshadow incidental activists and dominate the high school activism scene.

  • The Complexities of Sex Education in Utah
    1 The Complexities of Sex Education in Utah Grace Sponaugle Occidental College, Urban & Environmental Policy Professor Cha, Professor Matsuoka, & Professor Shamasunder April 8, 2019 Sponaugle 2 Abstract Utah has a state-wide policy of abstinence education. Abstinence education programs have been proven to be ineffective at delaying the initiation of sex and changing sexual risk behaviors (Santelli et al., 2017), correlating with high rates of teen pregnancies and STIs ​ ​ ((Stanger-Hall & Hall, 2011)(McCammon, 2017)). Limiting the standards by which sex ​ ​ education programs are deemed “effective” to disease and pregnancy prevention, neglects the holistic view of sexual health as defined by the CDC. Therefore, in an attempt to understand the broader implications that sex education has had on youth in Utah, this study examined, through a survey and interviews, the social, cultural, and educational influences that youth in Utah attributed to their sex education. Additionally, this study analyzed how these influences have played a role in the youth’s self perception of their sexual knowledge and sexual health. This research revealed that abstinence education is inherently limited, calling for Utah to expand its sex education framework beyond abstinence education and embrace a comprehensive model for sex education. Sponaugle 3 Acknowledgements First, I would like to thank Professor Cha, Professor Matsuoka, and Professor Shamasunder for their help and guidance not only on the completion of my thesis, but also throughout my journey at Occidental College. Additionally, I would like to thank everyone that participated in the survey and interviews. None of this would have be possible without your support and interest in my project.

  • The Utah State Board of Regents' Recommended High School Curriculum
    No. 2018-3 | February 2018 Julie Hartley, Ph.D. The Utah State Board of Regents’ Recommended High School Curriculum A Foundation for College Success Background This issue brief explains the research and rationale behind the college preparatory curriculum recommended for Utah high school students by the State Board of Regents. With one minor change, this curriculum was jointly agreed upon as the recommended basic college preparatory high school pathway by both the Board of Regents and the Utah State Board of Education in 2016 and has been the basic curriculum required for the statewide Regents’ Scholarship since its inception in 2008. In 2017, the Utah State Legislature made changes to the Regents’ Scholarship program, to take effect with the graduating high school class of 2019. Rather than outlining high school curriculum requirements in statute, as had been done in 2008, the new law tasked the State Board of Regents and the Office of the Commissioner of Higher Education with determining the scholarship eligibility requirements. The law did specify that those requirements should include minimum standards of academic performance and a core curriculum that would motivate students beyond basic state high school graduation requirements. Most of the original Regents’ Scholarship curriculum requirements have been retained, but with some modifications that should make the scholarship easier for students to navigate. Regardless of whether high school students plan to pursue the Regents’ Scholarship, the Board of Regents encourages them to follow this curriculum as much as possible to prepare themselves for college. College Readiness Standards The State Board of Regents and the Utah System of Higher Education define college readiness as the ability to successfully complete credit-bearing, college-level coursework in an associate or baccalaureate degree program without remediation.

After a long period of providing schools for its membership in the Intermountain West of the United States, the Latter-day Saints ultimately settled on a system of supplementary religious education, designed to work in concert with public education systems. During the 1950s as the Church began to gain an international following, Church leaders moved to establish an international system of schools to meet their needs.
