  • Exploring Curriculum Leadership Capacity-Building Through Biographical Narrative: a Currere Case Study
    EXPLORING CURRICULUM LEADERSHIP CAPACITY-BUILDING THROUGH BIOGRAPHICAL NARRATIVE: A CURRERE CASE STUDY A dissertation submitted to the Kent State University College of Education, Health and Human Services in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Karl W. Martin August 2018 © Copyright, 2018 by Karl W. Martin All Rights Reserved ii MARTIN, KARL W., Ph.D., August 2018 Education, Health and Human Services EXPLORING CURRICULUM LEADERSHIP CAPACITY-BUILDING THROUGH BIOGRAPHICAL NARRATIVE: A CURRERE CASE STUDY (473 pp.) My dissertation joins a vibrant conversation with James G. Henderson and colleagues, curriculum workers involved with leadership envisioned and embodied in his Collegial Curriculum Leadership Process (CCLP). Their work, “embedded in dynamic, open-ended folding, is a recursive, multiphased process supporting educators with a particular vocational calling” (Henderson, 2017). The four key Deleuzian “folds” of the process explore “awakening” to become lead professionals for democratic ways of living, cultivating repertoires for a diversified, holistic pedagogy, engaging in critical self- examinations and critically appraising their professional artistry. In “reactivating” the lived experiences, scholarship, writing and vocational calling of a brilliant Greek and Latin scholar named Marya Barlowski, meanings will be constructed as engendered through biographical narrative and currere case study. Grounded in the curriculum leadership “map,” she represents an allegorical presence in the narrative. Allegory has always been connected to awakening, and awakening is a precursor for capacity-building. The research design (the precise way in which to study this ‘problem’) will be a combination of historical narrative and currere. This collecting and constructing of Her story speaks to how the vision of leadership isn’t completely new – threads of it are tied to the past.

Main Outcome Measure(s): Goodness of fit of data from our center and previously published data to the Combined Formula and three previous mathematical models. Result(s): The Combined Formula predicted the probability of singleton, twin, and higher-order pregnancies more accurately than three previous formulas (1.4% vs. 2.88%, 4.02%, and 5%, respectively) and accurately predicted outcomes from five previously published studies from other centers.

Exploring tentativeness: risk, uncertainty and ambiguity in first time pregnancy Emily Jane Ross PhD, Population Health Sciences The University of Edinburgh 2015 Abstract This thesis explores fifteen women’s accounts of pregnancy over the course of gestation. It highlights the fluidity and dynamism of these women’s experiences, placing these in the context of the breadth of medical interventions they engaged with. Much existing literature concerning pregnancy focuses on specific instances of contact with medical professionals or technological interventions. This study explores the mundane and routine elements of the everyday practice of pregnancy, including during the first trimester. This is a period rarely addressed in academic literature. The thesis draws on data from in-depth interviews with women in Scotland, experiencing a continuing pregnancy for the first time.

  • Expectations and Experiences of First-Time Mothers Before, During, and After Pregnancy Research Study
    INTRODUCTION The transition to motherhood is a major developmental life event. Becoming a mother involves moving from a known, current reality to an unknown, new reality. (Mercer 2004:229). The main objective of this study is to better understand the experiences that first-time mothers who gave birth to a living child have in the different stages of the childbearing process. This study explored the expectations these women had of how their pregnancy, the birth and their new life as a parent would be. More specifically, the intention was to explore if perceptions and social expectations shape how women perceive the process of becoming a first-time mother and how those compare to the reality of giving birth and the time afterwards. Different cultural norms and social expectations shape how people construct their lives and opinions (Bailey 2007). Accordingly, there are a variety of books on childbearing and many different opinions and social norms on every aspect of the process of pregnancy, birth and parenting. A woman who gets pregnant in the industrialized world today has to figure out what advice she wants to take, what she considers to be the right choice for her and what resources she will use. On the following pages, I will speak of women’s experiences and expectations. However, it is important to note that I am referring to the stated expectations and reported experiences of the participants for the purpose of this study. 1 The first aim of this study was to explore the reported thoughts and the emotions of women immediately after they find out that they are pregnant, and how these feelings and thoughts change over the span of the pregnancy.

A healthy pregnancy • Prenatal care is preventive healthcare for the pregnancy and delivery of the baby. It consists of regular check-ups with doctors and nurses. • Fitness during pregnancy refers to lifestyle choices taken during the gestation period. Three pillars of a fit pregnancy & baby: PHYSICAL MENTAL NUTRITION ACTIVITY WELNESS Benefits of a fit & healthy pregnancy • Less complications during pregnancy • More energy during pregnancy • Easier labour • More chances of a healthy baby Bonding with the foetus The bond between a mother and her newborn in turn influences the baby’s future growth and development. A strong bond between a mother and her baby is associated with better development outcomes later in life. Watching weight gain Healthy weight and healthy lifestyle behaviours are considered as essential prerequisites for a successful pregnancy. Excessive gestational weight gain and obesity are shown to significantly increase risks of complications during pregnancy and birth as well as elevating the risk of obesity in the offspring. Cutting bad habits Making good lifestyle choices will directly impact the health of a growing fetus. Habits such as smoking, drug use, and alcohol consumption have been linked to serious complications and risks for both mother and baby.

    1 Smoking during pregnancy and child mental health and wellbeing Evidence, policy and practice Laura Vanderbloemen PhD University of York Department of Health Sciences 27 September 2013 3 Maternal smoking during pregnancy and child mental health and wellbeing: evidence, policy and practice Abstract Aim: The aim of this thesis was to further understand the link between maternal smoking during pregnancy and mental health outcomes among children. The thesis comprises (a) a longitudinal epidemiological analysis of smoking during pregnancy and child mental health outcomes using cohort data for UK children from before birth to 7 years of age (b) an exploration of what policy documents, official guidance and qualitative studies tell us about how the epidemiological risks of smoking in pregnancy are reflected in public policy and discourse. Methods: Existing epidemiological evidence was reviewed prior to the quantitative analyses. The data analysed are from the Millennium Cohort Study. Data for 13,161 mothers and children, analysed longitudinally, were used to link exposure to maternal smoking during pregnancy to child mental health outcomes (hyperactivity and aggressive behaviour) at 3, 5 and 7 years of age. Additionally a review of official and lay health guidance in two countries (United Kingdom and United States) was conducted to ascertain the extent to which the potential link between maternal smoking during pregnancy and increased risk of child mental health problems is reflected in ante-natal care policy and practice in these countries. Similarly, a review of qualitative studies was conducted to ascertain the extent to which the risk of child mental health problems is reflected in women's perceptions of the risks of smoking during pregnancy.
