Wagner,Director Bureau of Businessand Economic Research University of Iowa iii FOREWORD This report covers the work of the SocialScience Education Consortium from August 15, 1964 to January 31, 1966, underCooperative Research Project 0E-5-10-174. A supplemental contract for the period December1, 1965 to March 31, 1966, Cooperative ResearchProject OE-6-10-327, made it possible to round out and complete much of the work begun underthe first contract. The two reports should be read together fora complete picture of this period of development in which the Social ScienceEducation Consortium explored ways of obtaining greater cooperation and communicationamong the various kinds of people whoare concerned with creative innovation in social science education--including classroomteachers, curriculum directors, school administrators, university educators, and socialscientists. As an aid to presentation of this whole picture, the table ofcontents of this report includes a copy of the table ofcontents of the report on the supplemental contract. The authors of this report debatedat length with themselves over the question of whether it should be kept relativelybrief, or should containa full report of all the work accomplished. It was our feeling that the decision most compatible with our goal of making curriculumdevelopment efforts of all kinds widely known and available wouldbe to make a full report of allour work. Since the parts of this reportwere produced at different times and not in the sequence given here, pagination isnot consecutive. A system of colored title pages has been used to guide the reader,as indicated in the Table of Contents. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Number or Page Color Foreword iii PART I: BACKGROUND AND RESULTS Section 1.

IRONIC FEMINISM: RHETORICAL CRITIQUE IN SATIRICAL NEWS A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Rhetorics, Communication, and Information Design by Kathy Elrick December 2016 Accepted by Dr. David Blakesley, Committee Chair Dr. Jeff Love Dr. Brandon Turner Dr. Victor J. Vitanza ABSTRACT Ironic Feminism: Rhetorical Critique in Satirical News aims to offer another perspective and style toward feminist theories of public discourse through satire. This study develops a model of ironist feminism to approach limitations of hegemonic language for women and minorities in U.S. public discourse. The model is built upon irony as a mode of perspective, and as a function in language, to ferret out and address political norms in dominant language. In comedy and satire, irony subverts dominant language for a laugh; concepts of irony and its relation to comedy situate the study’s focus on rhetorical contributions in joke telling. How are jokes crafted? Who crafts them? What is the motivation behind crafting them? To expand upon these questions, the study analyzes examples of a select group of popular U.S.

Why and How Educational Research I was an Arizona girl, born near the Grand Canyon, where my father had his first teaching job, and raised in Tempe just a short walk from Arizona State University. I was ready to leave home as soon as I finished college. As a child, my grandmother took me on bus trips to California, where beaches and flowering tree gardens lured me away from desert landscapes and endless days of sun. I wrote this chapter during the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020. How coincidental it is to be writing a reflective memoir at a time when it is hard to avoid reflecting. I had not thought I could tackle this project until well into the year, but sequestration at a rented house in South Carolina gave me time and so the pages multiplied in a different way. With this said, what is omitted is often the First grade photo, Broadmoor School, Tempe, most important material for reflection - the AZ emotional moments of childhood and the feelings that come with each turn of event.

  • The Myth of the Superuser: Fear, Risk, and Harm Online
    The Myth of the Superuser: Fear, Risk, and Harm Online ∗ Paul Ohm Fear of the powerful computer user, the “Superuser,” dominates debates about online conflict. He is a mythic figure: difficult to find, immune to technological constraints, and aware of legal loopholes. Policymakers, fearful of his power, too often overreact by passing overbroad, ambiguous laws intended to ensnare the Superuser but which are instead used against inculpable, ordinary users. This response is unwarranted because the Superuser is often a marginal figure whose power has been greatly exaggerated. The exaggerated focus on the Superuser reveals a pathological characteristic of the study of power, crime, and security online, which springs from a widely held fear of the Internet. Building on the social science fear literature, this Article challenges the conventional wisdom and ∗ Associate Professor of Law and Telecommunications, University of Colorado Law School.

  • International Journal of Scientific Research and Reviews Meaning
    Islam Md. Nijairul, IJSRR 2018, 7(4), 1969-1982 Research article Available online www.ijsrr.org ISSN: 2279–0543 International Journal of Scientific Research and Reviews Meaning and nature of human intelligence: A review Islam Md. Nijairul Gazole Mahavidyalaya, Malda, West Bengal, India. PIN 732124. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT How to define intelligence seems to be a conundrum with human race. People have been pondering over the nature of intelligence for millennia. Simply put, intelligence is the ability to learn about, learn from, understand and interact with one‟s environment. This mental ability helps one in the task of theoretical as well as practical manipulation of things, objects or events present in one‟s environment in order to adapt to or face new challenges and problems of life as successfully as possible. Some psychometric theorists like Spearman believed that intelligence is a basic ability that affects performance on all cognitively oriented tasks – from computing mathematical problems to writing poetry or solving riddles, and that it can be measured through IQ tests. On the other hand, cognitive theorists like Earl B. Hunt hold that intelligence comprises of a set of mental representations of information and a set of processes that can operate on the mental representations. The latest ones – cognitive-contextual theorists of intelligence such as Howard Gardner – think that cognitive processes operate in various environmental contexts. The present paper tries to understand the meaning and nature of human intelligence from various perspectives, development of intelligence, and its measurement. KEY WORDS: Intelligence, understanding, psychometric theory, cognitive theory, cognitive- contextual theory.

  • Establishing the Experimenting Society: the Historical Origin of Social
    Establishing the experimenting society: The historical origin of social experimentation according to the randomized controlled design TRUDY DEHuE University of Groningen " This article traces the historical origin of social experimentation. It highlights the central role of psychology in establishing the randomized controlled de- sign and its quasi-experimental derivatives. The author investigates the differ- ences in the 19th- and 20th-century meaning of the expression "social experi- . ment.n She rejects the image of neutrality of social experimentation, arguing-' that its 20th-century advocates promoted specific representations of cognitive competence and moral trustworthiness. More specifically, she demonstrates that the randomized controlled experiment and its quasi-experimental derivatives epitomize the values of efficiency and impersonality characteristic of the liber- al variation of the 20th-century welfare state. In 1969, experimental psychologist Donald T. Campbell published an article that would become a classic in the social sciences. The article bears the style of a political appeal. "The United States and other mod- em nations," Campbell proclaimed, "should be ready for an experimen- tal approach to social reform, an approach in which we tryout new programs designed to cure specific social problems" (Campbell, 1969, p. 409; for discussions of the article as a classic article, see Rossi & Free- man, 1985; Bulmer, 1986; Shadish, Cook, & Leviton, 1991; Brewer & Cook, 1996; Dunn, 1998). In the history of natural science and psychology, the word experimen- tal has been used loosely for various procedures (Kuhn, 1962; Hacking, 1983; Galison, 1997; Danziger, 1990; Winston, 1990; Winston & Blais, 1996). In Campbell's vocabulary, however, it had a distinct meaning: ."True" experimentation implies that particular groups of people are subjected to a treatment and are compared with an untreated control group.
