Application of the concept of learning style has been Hindered by confusion over terminology and lack of appropriate measurement instruments fc.1 adults.

Conceptual Hurdles to the Application of Atkins v. Virginia Lois A. WEITHORN* INTRODUCTION In its 2002 decision, Atkins v. Virginia, the United States Supreme Court held that the Eighth Amendment's prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment precludes the execution of "mentally retarded offender[s]."' Writing for a six-member majority, Justice Stevens concluded that social attitudes and legal trends had shifted sufficiently in the thirteen years since the Court upheld such executions in Penry v. Lynaugh2 to justify a reversal of Penry.3 Indeed, according to Justice Stevens, during this interval, a social consensus had emerged favoring an absolute ban on the imposition of the death penalty on "a mentally retarded criminal."4 To reach this decision, the Court applied the standard set forth

    COGNITIVE STRATEGIES OF UNDERPERFORMING AFRICAN AMERICAN BOYS IN RESPONSE TO CHILDREN’S LITERATURE By EVIE ADAMS WELCH A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2008 1 © 2008 Evie Adams Welch 2 In memory of my Mother Mildred Rebecca Shaw-Adams June 5, 1919- May 4, 2004 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Many professors’ ideas influenced the contents of “Cognitive Strategies for Underperforming African American Boys in Response to Children’s Literature.” First, to members of my dissertation committee, I wish to thank the Chair, Dr. Linda Lamme for teaching me the technical background about how children’s books were constructed. I learned how children’s books were carefully researched, while quality children’s books were skillfully crafted. Second, I wish to thank Dr. Ruth Lowery, my Co-chair for reading every page of the first proposal presented at the qualifying examination. Your comments led me to explore answers in the field of neuroscience where I found one answer to the guiding question for the study. Patrick Shannon was translated to me and provided unique experiences of looking at many social issues through the eyes of an immigrant. Third, I wish to thank Dr. Danling Fu for the suggestions given at the qualifying examination to organize the work into three major strands to explore one literacy problem, when I originally wanted to use children’s literature to present the findings from the 2003 Pilot Study about information processing and leave the rigorous researching of the literature about literacy to someone else.
