(PhD, Educational Leadership, Research, and Policy) Response to Intervention: The Link Between Specific Learning Disability and Special Education Services Dissertation directed by Professor Al Ramirez The purpose of this quantitative study is to determine if there is a statistically significant difference in the percentage of students identified as Specific Learning Disability before and after states policy adoptions in Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Idaho, Louisiana, Rhode Island, and West Virginia that required the use of Response to Intervention (RtI) as the sole methodology for identifying students with Specific Learning Disability. Response to Intervention assumed a dominant role in education with the passage of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. Identified as a method to intervene early with students who were not making adequate academic achievement, RtI found its way into special education law with the passage of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act in 2004 hereafter referred to as IDEA 2004.

  • Semiotic Approach to the Analysis of Interpersonal Communication in Modern Comedies
    SEMIOTIC APPROACH TO THE ANALYSIS OF INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION IN MODERN COMEDIES Maria Kochetkova A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2010 Committee: Ellen W Gorsevski, Advisor Lara Lengel Donald McQuarie © 2010 Maria Kochetkova All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Ellen W Gorsevski, Advisor The present research takes a cultural prospective on the tensions in interpersonal relations based on the movies of the 90’s, such as Sleepless in Seattle (1993), As Good As It Gets (1997), and You’ve Got Mail (1998). The romantic comedy films of the 90’s were innovative in their genre, for they have touched upon serious drama subjects, hiding behind the “romantic” and “comedy’ style. Through the prism of the semiotic analysis I try to analyze how cultural codes play into the formation of hidden conflicts in interpersonal communication, mainly loneliness. Umberto Eco’s theory of the openness of the “author’s message” permits to illustrate the many possibilities of interpretation by the audience of the given films and allows an in-depth analysis of the cultural situation. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Firstly, I would like to thank my advisor, Dr Ellen Gorsevski, who has not only supported me throughout this process, but through her guidance I was able to see my research in a different way. I would like to thank my family, especially my mom and dad, Natalia and Alexander, without whom not only this project would not be possible, but only through their guidance and support I was able to understand the true meaning of education.
