An Exploration of Students' Motivation to Write AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION of Thomas J. Abrams, Jr. for the degree of Doctor of Education in Learning, Leadership, and Community presented on May 16, 2018. Title: Invisible Ink: An Exploration of Students’ Motivation to Write Abstract Approved Dr. Meg Petersen, PhD Dissertation Committee Chair This qualitative study investigates the motivation to write of four students in an upper middle class suburban community in the northeastern part of the United States. Utilizing a multiple case study approach, this current research focused on the interplay of the individual within the socio-cultural environment, using Bronfenbrenner’s (1979) ecological systems framework and Bourdieu’s (1997) notion of habitus as analytical lenses. This study moved beyond a linear model of motivation to account for the complexities of interacting motivational processes and focused on student perspective, noticeably absent from the motivation research literature. Findings suggest that five factors contribute to a student’s motivation to write. First, a student’s habitus, and specifically its concordance or discordance within a certain context, profoundly affects his or her motivation to write. Second, motivation to write is informed by a student’s identity within a certain context. Third, social and contextual supports can facilitate motivation to write, depending upon a student’s identity and habitus. Fourth, a student’s perception of autonomy, informed by his or her habitus and identity and promoted by a feeling of agency, could motivate a student to write. Fifth, students could be motivated to write to explore the complex emotions encountered in the social world and across various contexts. Implications suggest that taking into account in-school writing experiences of high school students can inform educators about changes necessary to the design and implementation of writing instruction and assessment practices. © by Thomas J.

My signature below authorizes release of my dissertation to any reader upon request. Thomas J. Abrams, Jr., Author i Acknowledgments This dissertation could not have been completed without the love and support of my wife and sons. My wife, Ingrid, treated this journey with dedication, patience, and unwavering love. Each morning my sons, TJ and Benjamin, would find their way down into my basement hovel and greet me. My soul craved those moments. My parents have, since day one, supported their often whimsical son. My father’s own love of knowledge and my mother’s passion for life have been my guide, but especially during the last eighteen months. The Magnificent Saath. Like our namesake, our cohort was an unruly bunch of misfits who somehow, as a whole, had an enormous capacity to do great things. The tribulations, text messages, and many laughs sustained me. A+. Three people took a chance on some random guy they had never met, but who showed up one day in an office, a classroom, a conference room, asking for support. Dr. Meg Petersen suffered my constant overwriting, letting me find my way with her steady hand as a guide. She had the wonderful ability to motivate my own writing, by carefully suggesting the way I should go but never pushing. Dr. Annamary Consalvo brought intellectual gravitas. She offered just the right amount of push and support to allow me to feel part of an intellectual community. Dr. Elizabeth Kinzly, a colleague, kept me grounded and focused. Finally, none of this would have been possible without the teachers and students. Horatio, Penny, David, and Bella opened their minds and their hearts to me, and for that I ii will be eternally grateful. The Mount Rural English Department opened their classrooms and gave of their time to help me along the way. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF APPENDICES

By studying its dramatic landscapes and probing into their multi-sensory manifestations in line with Symbolist theory and aesthetics , I argue that Pinter’s theatre articulates an ecocritical stance and a micropolitical critique.

  • The Visual Art of Invisible Man: Hill Ellison’S Portrait of Blackness
    Lena M. The Visual Art of Invisible Man: Hill Ellison’s Portrait of Blackness When Ralph Ellison arrived in New York during the summer of 1936, he focused on two passions: music and sculpture. He hoped to supplement his studies in music at the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute with connections to musicians and composers, and at the same time to pursue his interest in visual art. As chance would have it, the day after his arrival Ellison became acquainted with Langston Hughes, who introduced him to the world of Harlem artists. With the help of Robert Savion Pious, Ellison met sculptor Richmond Barthé, with whom he had corresponded briefly after viewing Barthé’s masks.1 The respected artist accepted Ellison as his first apprentice, and in August 1936 Ellison wrote to Hughes describing his progress as well as his assessment of his instructor: I’ve done two heads and have started my first torso. After seeing the work of several of our so-called sculptors, I quite agree with you about Barthé. Not only does his work excel theirs in anatomi- cal truthfulness, but in artistic feeling as well; I think I have been objective in this matter because I waited to study with the person who could give me the most regardless of the opinion of the Negro press.2 Ellison admired Barthé’s style of integrating African themes with classical forms in his bronze sculptures, but African American crit- ics disparaged the sculptor’s work as too conservative and reliant on Western aesthetics.3 Ellison, whose musical training in Oklahoma had embraced such artistic

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

  • And UPSTREAM COLOR (US 2013) As Post-Secular Sci-Fi Parables
    Joel Mayward Parabolic Transcendence in Time and Narrative Shane Carruth’s PRIMER (US 2004) and UPSTREAM COLOR (US 2013) as Post-Secular Sci-Fi Parables Abstract Subjectivity, memory, and the invisible connections between individuals’ identities are all conspicuous themes within filmmaker Shane Carruth’s two award-winning indie sci-fi films, Primer (US 2004) and Upstream Color (US 2013). In this article, I contend that both Primer and Upstream Color are post-secular cinematic parables per philosopher Paul Ricoeur’s description of parable: the conjunction of a narrative form and a metaphorical process, addressing the religious via non-religious discourse. Interpreting these two films through a Ricoeurian parabolic hermeneutic addresses their mutual transcendence in and through time and narrative via their striking visual and auditory aesthetics, the use of montage in their nonlinear narratives, and the depiction of invisible relational connections between the films’ protagonists. I conclude that Carruth’s post-secular cinema resides in an in-between space: between the secular and the religious, realism and expressionism, immanence and transcendence. Keywords Shane Carruth, Paul Ricoeur, Parable, Post-Secular, Transcendence, Time Travel, Film-The- ology Biography Joel Mayward is a pastor-theologian and film critic. An adjunct professor at Portland Semi- nary of George Fox University in Oregon, USA, and the author of three books, Mayward is currently a PhD candidate at the Institute for Theology, Imagination and the Arts (ITIA) at the University of St Andrews, Scotland, where he also serves as Associate Editor for ITIA’s online journal, Transpositions. His research interests include the intersection of theology and culture, film theory and film-philosophy, and Latino/a liberation theology and ethics.

Email: dimitris.papadopoulos@nottingham.ac.uk Abstract In 2008, just as the movement of the precarious seemed to be winning political battle after political battle, the fight against precarization suddenly dwindled. The cycle of struggles of the precarious that began in 2000 had come to an end. Ironically this was also the moment that precarity as a concept became widely known in popular opinion, media commentary and academia. This paper focuses on the movement of the precarious from its inception in the early 2000s to its decline in 2008 and its reappearance in response to the economic crisis through the widespread mobilizations for “real democracy” between 2008 and 2014.

The simplest way to describe the book is as a modern Walden, for like Thoreau's classic it is one person's account of what they found out by living alone in close communion with nature and their own thoughts. In the first chapter Dillard pays homage to her predecessor while announcing her intentions for her book: "I propose to keep here what Thoreau called 'a meteorological journal of the mind.

    24 Jonas Mekas Genevieve Yue Jonas Mekas. Photo: Boris Lehman, Nantes, 2005 It is for this art and from this art that I (we) speak to you. Jonas Mekas, Anthology Film Archives Manifesto Midwife of the New York Independent Cinema In the late 1940s, Jonas Mekas and his brother Adolfas were living in a displaced persons camp in Wisenbaden, Germany, following the end of the Second World War. The Treasure of the Sierra Madre There, for the first time in their lives, they had seen some films that stirred in them an The Search interest in the medium, like John Huston’s (1948). They had also seen by Fred Zinnemann (1948), a film about the lives of displaced persons, and it made them angry. In their minds, the film touched on noth- ing of the experience of displaced persons, which was also their experience. Outraged by what they had seen, they began to write scripts and resolved to start making their own films as soon as they could afford a camera. Both brothers would go on to lead long careers in film, and throughout their lives, the original motive would remain unchanged: to protest against what cinema was, and to look toward the promise of what it could be. 25 Previously, Jonas Mekas had lived in Semeniskiai, a quiet farming village in Lith- uania. He was born Christmas Eve, 1922. Mekas had a growing reputation as a poet, having published his first collection at the age of 14. When the German army entered the country, he began editing an underground newspaper.
