  • The Complexities of Sex Education in Utah
    1 The Complexities of Sex Education in Utah Grace Sponaugle Occidental College, Urban & Environmental Policy Professor Cha, Professor Matsuoka, & Professor Shamasunder April 8, 2019 Sponaugle 2 Abstract Utah has a state-wide policy of abstinence education. Abstinence education programs have been proven to be ineffective at delaying the initiation of sex and changing sexual risk behaviors (Santelli et al., 2017), correlating with high rates of teen pregnancies and STIs ​ ​ ((Stanger-Hall & Hall, 2011)(McCammon, 2017)). Limiting the standards by which sex ​ ​ education programs are deemed “effective” to disease and pregnancy prevention, neglects the holistic view of sexual health as defined by the CDC. Therefore, in an attempt to understand the broader implications that sex education has had on youth in Utah, this study examined, through a survey and interviews, the social, cultural, and educational influences that youth in Utah attributed to their sex education. Additionally, this study analyzed how these influences have played a role in the youth’s self perception of their sexual knowledge and sexual health. This research revealed that abstinence education is inherently limited, calling for Utah to expand its sex education framework beyond abstinence education and embrace a comprehensive model for sex education. Sponaugle 3 Acknowledgements First, I would like to thank Professor Cha, Professor Matsuoka, and Professor Shamasunder for their help and guidance not only on the completion of my thesis, but also throughout my journey at Occidental College. Additionally, I would like to thank everyone that participated in the survey and interviews. None of this would have be possible without your support and interest in my project.

  • The Conceptions of Literacy of New Graduate Instructors Teaching Composition
    THE CONCEPTIONS OF LITERACY OF NEW GRADUATE INSTRUCTORS TEACHING COMPOSITION A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Meaghan H. Brewer May 2013 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Eli Goldblatt, Advisory Chair, Department of English Dr. Michael Smith, Department of Teaching and Learning Dr. Steve Newman, Department of English Dr. Jessica Restaino, External Member, Montclair State University ii © Copyright 2013 by Meaghan H. Brewer All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT This study explores the variety of understandings of literacy, or conceptions of literacy, that exist among graduate instructors in the fields of English literature, rhetoric and composition, and creative writing in their first semester of teaching and what the implications are for having these conceptions, particularly with regard to their teaching. I collected two kinds of data from seven participants who were enrolled in a fall 2010 composition practicum at a large, public university in the Northeast. The data I elicited included interviews of participants in which they examine their own writing, an assignment ranking activity, observations of participants as they teach composition, and field notes I collected from the Practicum course meetings. I also collected artifacts from their work in the Practicum course and their teaching, including two drafts of a literacy autobiography that they wrote for the practicum and marked-up student paper drafts from the composition course they were teaching. Following the work of Michael W. Smith and Dorothy Strickland, I parsed the data by content units. Using Peter Goggin’s categories for defining literacy from Professing Literacy in Composition Studies, I coded data using the qualitative data management system Atlas.ti according to seven conceptions: literacy for personal growth, literacy for personal growth, social/critical literacy, critical activist literacy, cultural literacy, functionalist literacy, and instrumental literacy.

It can give us knowledge about our bodies; debunk harmful stereotypes about sex, race, and gender; provide opportunities for us to think critically about our own values and relationships; and empower us to stand up for our rights and the rights of others to pleasure, bodily autonomy, and consent. This was not, however, what sex education was initially designed to do. Too often, over the past 100 years of American history, it has been used to do just the opposite. 4 5 Those who originally pushed the importance of SIECUS believes, however, that sex education— educating the public about sexuality did so out if done properly—has the power to serve as a of a fear that their comfortable, white, middle vehicle for social change. Understanding the class way of living was being threatened by the history of sex education in this country, the loosening of sexual morals.

  • Community Action Toolkit
    COMMUNITY ACTION TOOLKIT a guide to advancing sex education in your community About SIECUS SIECUS believes sexuality—due to its intrinsic value as well as its importance to individual and collective health—is worthy of our utmost attention, public discourse, thoughtful instruction, and societal respect. For the past 54 years, SIECUS has made strides in ensuring young people’s positive and healthy sexual development through several different strategies thereby promoting and increasing lifelong health and well-being. To continue to gain ground on fulfilling this mission, we stand for: ● a nationwide commitment to comprehensive sexuality education in schools; ● more and better trained teachers delivering this education; ● stronger policies that support both comprehensive sexuality education and sexual and reproductive health, rights, and justice; and ● a public that is better informed about sexual and reproductive health and rights issues. Fulfilling the above objectives, in context and over time, will enable us to realize our vision of a sexually healthy world where individuals: ● Appreciate their own bodies. ● Interact with all genders in respectful and appropriate ways. ● Affirm their own sexual orientation and respect the sexual orientations of others. ● Develop and maintain meaningful relationships. ● Make informed and autonomous choices about family planning options. ● Develop and practice effective critical-thinking and decision-making skills. ● Express their sexuality in ways that are congruent with their values. ● Practice health-promoting behaviors, such as scheduling regular physical exams, using contraception effectively, avoiding contracting or transmitting STIs, and communicating effectively with partners about their needs, wants, and desires. ● Enjoy and express their sexuality throughout the duration of their lifetime.

    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Review Development of Contextually-relevant Sexuality Education: Lessons from a Comprehensive Review of Adolescent Sexuality Education Across Cultures Hildie Leung *, Daniel T. L. Shek, Edvina Leung and Esther Y. W. Shek Department of Applied Social Sciences, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong, China; [email protected] (D.T.L.S.); [email protected] (E.L.); [email protected] (E.Y.W.S.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 17 December 2018; Accepted: 16 February 2019; Published: 20 February 2019 Abstract: As reported by the World Health Organization in 2017, there are 2 million+ young people living with HIV worldwide. The World Health Organization also reported that a third of all new HIV infections around the world are estimated to occur among youths (aged 15–25). and teen pregnancy rates are on the rise in many places. These worrying trends suggest that existing sexuality education programs and interventions may be inadequate and/or ineffective. Although the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development’s (ICPD) Programme of Action highlighted the roles of Governments to offer sex education to young people to promote teenage reproductive health, yet inconsistency exists in the related initiatives in the global context. The present article aims to provide a comprehensive literature review of the existing sexuality programs in selected places in both English-speaking (i.e., the United States of America, the United Kingdom) and Chinese-speaking contexts (i.e., Hong Kong, Mainland China, and Taiwan). Based on the review, observations and implications for sexuality education policy and practice, as well as recommendations for future research for youths are outlined.
