  • Impact of Action Research Teams on Administrators' Implementation
    IMPACT OF ACTION RESEARCH TEAMS ON ADMINISTRATORS’ IMPLEMENTATION AND TEACHERS’ PERCEPTION OF THE TEACHER KEYS EFFECTIVENESS SYSTEM by KEVIN PAUL CARPENTER (Under the Direction of Sheneka Williams) ABSTRACT This action research (AR) case study addresses the effectiveness of the feedback administrators provide to teachers under the Teacher Keys Effectiveness System (TKES). AR teams explored techniques to improve feedback to help teachers improve their instructional practices within teacher and leader efficacy and professional school structures lenses. To evaluate the AR process, the following questions drove the study: 1. How effective is the action research process in empowering the team’s ability to find a solution to an evaluation system problem? 2. How can teachers influence the feedback process, and in what ways does feedback inform teachers’ practices? 3. How do administrators increase their capacity to give actionable feedback? Under the guidance of action research, two teams examined administrator feedback in the TKES platform and the professional learning resources leaders used to improve their evaluation practices. Findings included the following: teachers desire to see consistency in feedback that includes commendations and recommendations, administrators should change an evaluation score if the teacher provides evidence, teachers change their instruction if the feedback is purposeful, relevant, and convincing, and action research teams should include teachers from different grade levels and content areas to be effective as

Atlanta, GA April 23 - 29, 2008 The Organ of Student Expression Since 1925 Politics as Usual 'Underdog' Mance Wins SGA Presidency; Jonathan Collins Contributing Writer Elected with 54% of the Vote [email protected] pparently Barack Obama started a rev­ olution. Almost every political plat­ Aform in the 2008 Morehouse College polit­ ical elections was based around "change." The question I asked myself is, "When will the need for change end?" It's difficult to comprehend how multiple candidates can preach how a new change is in order on an annual basis. Either their predecessors have not met adequate standards; these new political headliners have such inno­ vative ideas or its all politics as usual. Although extensive research has not been done, it is pretty certain that student elections have gone on for years. Many changes have been implemented through the election of student officials, but there is only so much change that can occur over a period of time. The problem with many of these "change" platforms is that they under­ mine the work of the antecedents. Barack Obama never debilitates the works of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in his campaign. So, why does a man have to cripple the accom­ plishments-or lack of-of the man holding the office before him by emphasizing how much "change" he will implement? I guess one must do whatever it takes to become a class officer these days. The interesting thing about these elec­ tions is how it allows for so many different words to say the same thing.

  • The Mixtape: a Case Study in Emancipatory Journalism
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: THE MIXTAPE: A CASE STUDY IN EMANCIPATORY JOURNALISM Jared A. Ball, Doctor of Philosophy, 2005 Directed By: Dr. Katherine McAdams Associate Professor Philip Merrill College of Journalism Associate Dean, Undergraduate Studies During the 1970s the rap music mixtape developed alongside hip-hop as an underground method of mass communication. Initially created by disc-jockeys in an era prior to popular “urban” radio and video formats, these mixtapes represented an alternative, circumventing traditional mass medium. However, as hip-hop has come under increasing corporate control within a larger consolidated media ownership environment, so too has the mixtape had to face the challenge of maintaining its autonomy. This media ownership consolidation, vertically and horizontally integrated, has facilitated further colonial control over African America and has exposed as myth notions of democratizing media in an undemocratic society. Acknowledging a colonial relationship the writer created FreeMix Radio: The Original Mixtape Radio Show where the mixtape becomes both a source of free cultural expression and an anti-colonial emancipatory journalism developed as a “Third World” response to the needs of postcolonial nation-building. This dissertation explores the contemporary colonizing effects of media consolidation, cultural industry function, and copyright ownership, concluding that the development of an underground press that recognizes the tremendous disparities in advanced technological access (the “digital divide”) appears to be the only viable alternative. The potential of the mixtape to serve as a source of emancipatory journalism is studied via a three-pronged methodological approach: 1) An explication of literature and theory related to the history of and contemporary need for resistance media, 2) an analysis of the mixtape as a potential underground mass press and 3) three focus group reactions to the mixtape as resistance media, specifically, the case study of the writer’s own FreeMix Radio: The Original Mixtape Radio Show.
