    Italian Americans, Others Call for New York to Honor Saint with Statue

    Italian Americans, others call for New York to honor saint with statue BROOKLYN, N.Y. (CNS) — The outrage over the snubbing of St. Frances Xavier Cabrini by New York City first lady Chirlane McCray’s She Built NYC commission culminated in a march and Mass Oct. 6 to support a public statue of Mother Cabrini, as the patron saint of immigrants is best known. More than 1,000, including many Italian Americans, joined the march in Brooklyn’s Carroll Gardens section led by Bishop Nicholas DiMarzio of Brooklyn and Msgr. David Cassato, director of the Brooklyn Diocese’s Italian Apostolate. Afterward, Bishop DiMarzio celebrated Mass at Sacred Hearts-St. Stephen Church. The march showed support for Mother Cabrini after she wasn’t selected as one of first seven women to have a statue built in their honor by the She Built NYC project, an initiative that aims to increase the number of statues of women in New York City. Mother Cabrini received the most nominations of any of the 320 women nominated, and yet she was passed over. Jane Meyer, a spokeswoman for Mayor Bill de Blasio, said She Built NYC didn’t rely just on the number of public nominations. Instead, it took a “holistic” approach, she said, taking into consideration the advice of a 19-person committee that represented a diverse group of people with a broad range of expertise and backgrounds. “There wasn’t one particular lever that was pulled more than another,” Meyer said. “Maybe it wasn’t clear along the way that it wasn’t the most vote gets it.” Bishop DiMarzio said Mother Cabrini wouldn’t have asked for a statue herself, but noted a statue would honor the memory of immigrants and remind us of our responsibility to each other.

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School Department of Adult Education THE MEANINGS OF TEACHING FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF EXEMPLARY AND EXPERIENCED TEACHERS A Dissertation in Adult Education by Janice E. Smith 2011 Janice E. Smith Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Education May 2011 ii The dissertation of Janice E. Smith was reviewed and approved* by the following: Patricia A. Cranton Professor of Adult Education Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Edward W. Taylor Professor of Adult Education Denise G. Meister Associate Professor of Education Gina Brelsford Assistant Professor of Psychology Gary Kuhne In Charge of Graduate Programs in Adult Education *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT A qualitative narrative inquiry that explores the meaning of teaching and the development of that meaning throughout the career of exemplary and experienced teachers in kindergarten- through-twelfth-grade (K-12) public schools was conducted. Exemplary teachers were operationalized in this study as any of the 12 teachers chosen each year by the state of Pennsylvania as finalists for Teacher of the Year. The research questions that guided this narrative inquiry are: Which, if any, of Kegan’s (1982, 1994) developmental plateaus can be identified as current or prior meaning-making systems for these exemplary and experienced teachers? What are the current meanings of teaching for these exemplary and experienced teachers? If these meanings have changed, what was the process of change as the meanings of teaching changed throughout their career? Was this process of change developmental? What contextual influences have supported or hindered the teachers’ meaning-making? Literature that explores constructive-developmental theory, connects it to adult education, and advocates a context for learning with an appropriate mix of challenge and support is reviewed.

    Approaching the Promethean Idea in the Spring 2018 Semester

    Note from Capstone Director, Professor Leslie Donovan Sam Shoemaker-Trejo’s capstone project was to prepare and co-teach a 300-level Honor seminar titled Burning Life: Approaching the Promethean Idea in the Spring 2018 semester. Sam and I came up with the idea of the course as a means to provide junior-level Honors student with advanced skills in research and communicating that research for public audiences. As a result, the artifacts or products that give evidence for Sam’s capstone are somewhat different than those of other projects. Instead of performing original research, he read research on pedagogy and developed his own teaching style. He co-wrote the syllabus, co-prepared all in-class handouts and exercises, personally led 50% of our class sessions, commented on and collaborated in the grading of all assignments, and met with students individually. The artifacts collected here for future Honors Majors to consider are two works Sam was solely responsible for writing that somewhat summarize his capstone work and experience: a narrative story version of our more formal syllabus (distributed to students in the class after the forma syllabus had been discussed) and an end-of-the semester reflective paper summarizing the entire course. Burning Life: Approaching the Promethean Idea by Samuel Shoemaker-Trejo As a note to the reader of this syllabus: this story exists to clarify the structure and theory of the course, as well as to alleviate some of the malaise of the regular syllabus. It contains no dates or times, but I have bolded certain information that pertains directly to the order of assignments in the course.
