A comparative study of novice and veteran teachers in response to high-stakes testing preparation
Description
An account of the resource
MS Ed: Teaching Literacy
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
The No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) of 2001 mandated both assessment and accountability across all the states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. NCLB's highstakes accountability system rewards or punishes school districts, schools, and teachers for the academic performance of their students (Dworkin, 2005). Rewards include school funding and job security while punishments can be as severe as the closing of an entire school. The highstakes tests, which begin in third grade, require plenty of preparation from both teachers and students.
The purpose of this study was to explore the different literacy test preparation approaches both novice and veteran 3rd, 4th and 5th grade teachers of one school used in their classrooms and to examine whether and how they shared these approaches. The study also analyzed teachers' perceptions ofthe strengths and weaknesses of these practices and how they were able to bridge the generational gap between novice and veteran teachers in order to professionally collaborate with one another and create a positive school culture. Results indicate that although professional collaboration was evident, novice and veteran teachers possessed different perceptions on test preparation and utilized different practices in their classrooms. These practices were directly related to both their perceptions of accountability and years of experience within the field.

A study of teacher engagement in a dual language program
Description
An account of the resource
MS Ed: Teaching Literacy
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Researchers have found that high-quality and long-term dual language programs promote academic achievement and high levels of language proficiency for learners from both language groups (Hood, 2011). The purpose of this study was to explore how a dual language approach was fostered in a new school designed to promote bilingual education. The study analyzed teachers' efforts to navigate language learning, teaching, and cultural assumptions. Results indicate that the dual language approach in the new school was supported through effective collaboration and planning to meet the needs of diverse English Language Learners. This study also explored the importance of lived teacher experiences of this new school. Each teacher was brought into the school with a different educational background. Although their backgrounds were different, they were brought into the school to work towards the school's goal: creating a successful dual language program. Their perception of what the program was going to be like before starting the school year went through major changes throughout the first four months of school. Teachers' understandings changed as a result of a series of meetings that were held throughout the first four months discussing the program and its effectiveness for students. Teachers' ability to share their ideas and feelings about what was working and what was not working was important for the change in attitudes and building of shared understandings. This study focuses on the six teachers who came together to apply the ideals and methods of the dual language program within each of their classrooms and in the school as a whole.

Addressing family diversity: creating a LGBTQ inclusive program for early childhood educators
Description
An account of the resource
MS Ed: Early Childhood/Special Education
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Between I and 13 million children are being raised by lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or queer (LGBTQ) parents in the United States. This means that in early childhood settings across the country, many students are coming to school with diverse family configurations. There has been much research done to show the importance of a positive relationship between school and home life, especially for children in early childhood classrooms. A positive bond formed between families and early childhood educators is a key factor in a child's development and leads to better social, behavioral, and academic outcomes. Students tend to perform better and have higher self-esteem. Therefore, it is imperative that children see their diverse families represented in materials and lessons in schools. LGBTQ diversity training is needed for both pre-service and in-service teachers so they can learn appropriate ways of creating an inclusive classroom.
The purpose of this study was to explore the idea of LGBTQ inclusion in early childhood settings. This study surveyed current early childhood teachers to learn what inclusive practices they are currently employing in their classrooms, as well as their background knowledge in LGBTQ issues. LGBTQ parents who have or have had children in early childhood classrooms were interviewed on their experiences in an effort to gain real life understanding and insight into the struggles LGBTQ families face. LGBTQ parents were also questioned about their hopes and expectations for inclusive schools. Finally, the information gathered from the parent focus group and teacher surveys was used to develop a framework for an LGBTQ inclusive workshop for teachers to learn more about family diversity and how to incorporate these issues into their classrooms.

An analysis of teacher preparation policies across four states : exploring policies that may raise student achievement
Description
An account of the resource
MS Ed: Adolescent Education
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Students in the United States have consistently performed poorly on international mathematics assessments, which could be attributed to numerous factors. This analysis concerns the impact that teacher preparation policies throughout the United States might have on students' mathematics performance. Four states-New York, Mississippi, Massachusetts, and Montana-were chosen according to their students' mathematics performance on the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) examination. The areas of teacher policy analyzed were the selection requirements for teacher preparation programs, the level and number of required mathematics courses, the mathematics tests required for certification, and the student teaching experience. The results showed that the level of content and rigor of certification tests were among the most variable factors in teacher preparation and hence may also be among the most important for student achievement. Massachusetts, which required the most advanced mathematics courses and most rigorous testing for teacher candidates, was also the state with the highest performing math students. Massachusetts teacher policies could serve as a model for other states to follow so that United States can remain competitive in mathematics.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
This study examined how early child educators are immersing the arts into their curriculum in a standards based era while considering what approaches if any are followed. Through the utilization of research and interview questions developed and facilitated by the researcher, five early childhood educators provided information about variables impacting the way the arts were immersed in early childhood. The results of this study confirmed the impact that knowledge about early childhood approaches that utilize art can have on the selection of strategies and techniques that are embed in classroom practices in a standard space era.

Children's descriptions of early childhood after-dinner learning experiences: constructive activities vs. passive activities
Description
An account of the resource
MS Ed: Early Childhood/Special Education
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
This study explored the differences in how children experienced active and passive play in the late evenings in a daycare environment. Children were observed in ten- to thirty-minute activities, then asked questions about the activities ranging from whether they enjoyed the activity, such as playing with blocks or watching the television, to how they felt when participating in the activity. The researcher learned that students enjoyed most of the activities provided, and they do feel that they learn from the specific activities. Analysis of the data shows that constructive activities do indeed provoke more language than the passive activities. Educators can use this information to improve their practice and help children, especially those from low socioeconomic backgrounds, maximize their learning.

Children's transitions to new programs: a collaborative approach
Description
An account of the resource
MS Ed: Early Childhood/Special Education
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
The transition to Kindergarten is a milestone step for children and their families. Kindergarten today is so formal and demanding, with many standards to follow and high expectations of children. Families might experience stress and anxiety when engaging in transition activities and children might feel nervous when transitioning into Kindergarten. A collaborative approach is imperative for a smooth and effective transition. This study examined three questions focusing on families and school personnel collaborating to create meaningful transitions to Kindergarten for children, as well as their families. Interviews with school personnel were conducted and questionnaires were sent to families of children in a private preschool in Staten Island, NY. Results showed they supported the three questions and indicated that families and their children benefited from collaborating and communicating with school personnel for Kindergarten transition.

Differentiated literacy instruction and its effect on students' reading comprehension
Description
An account of the resource
MS Ed: Teaching Literacy
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
In today's diverse school systems throughout the United States, different types of students are constantly grouped together in classrooms. Many students have different levels of ability as well as different learning styles. With the pressure of standardized testing and curriculum goals, teachers may feel forced to design instruction based on what students will be tested on rather than being able to incorporate students' interests into lesson planning. This study tested students' performance while students' were placed in their reading groups and the teacher chose the book for them versus students' performance in interest groups where they were able to select a text for themselves.

MS Ed: Teaching Literacy
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
This exploratory study examines how early career educators can develop their abilities to plan and implement instruction for English Language Learners (ELLs). Seven female Wagner College graduate students were observed working in an English language and literacy development program, and later interviewed about how they were prepared to work in the program, and their experiences in the program. Findings highlight the need for a basic knowledge base of students' native language in order to effectively plan and implement English language instruction. Furthermore, findings suggest that interactive activities, teachers' cultural competence, and the opportunities for reflection all positively impact ELLs instruction. Program and educational improvements are discussed.

Exploring parents' goals for their children's preschool experience
Description
An account of the resource
MS Ed: Early Childhood/Special Education
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Today's education requires that children attend a fitting preschool setting aligned with their parents' goals. Parents may take innumerable factors into consideration when choosing the right preschool for their child, such as the school's philosophy, their personal beliefs, instruction, location, and the school's reputation. Parents' own early educational experiences may also influence them in profound ways as they pursue their decision-making process.
This study aimed to explore parents' goals and own early childhood experiences in an effort to help teachers better understand and connect with parents. The study used interviews and an online questionnaire. The questions were both specific and open ended, as one of the goals was to learn about personal accounts and memorable experiences parents may have enjoyed in their earliest educational settings. Results indicate that parents do in fact place children in certain preschool settings based on their own early educational experiences, as they want them to either go through the same enjoyable occurrences or undergo better experiences. Implications suggest early childhood centers should understand parents' own experiences and goals in order to forge a deeper connection between educators and parents through a sharing of personal, early educational accounts. Such connections could result in a more comforting and enjoyable learning experience for children, since parents and teachers will be more able to work together toward the same goals.
