Transcript: The DV will be the PTSD symptoms The facility will be asked to cease any therapy they may be doing with the children, doing this will assure that the results are from the art therapy and will not be influenced by any other type of therapy High: 46-58 Effects of Art Therapy on Symptoms of PTSD in Sexually Abused Children 50 kids will be in an age group ranging from 8-11 years of age Significance to the Field The CPSS will be scored on a nominal scale as follows: Each child will be assigned a number, without skipping any numbers, and the population will be selected by using a table of random numbers Both the facility and parents of the children will be given letters of consent to allow the study The art therapy will be conducted by 10 therapists trained in the area of art therapy Background on the Issue The max number a child can score is 58 points Each child will have the same therapist throughout the course of the study as to not disrupt any rapport or trust which could effect the study The facility will be randomly selected by listing all of the facilities in Louisiana who specialize in child sexual abuse and randomly drawing one The children will all be from the same facility which means they may have already been exposed to some therapies which may effect this study Low: 0-30 Procedure Cont'd Measurement Medium: 31-45 Brittany Lockard Procedure I am currently interning at the Sexual Trauma Awareness and Response Center (STAR) which counsels people who are survivors of sexual trauma. I have always been interested in the treatment of sexual abuse. Limitations These results can greatly improve the type of therapy used in counseling sexual abuse survivors, which may lead to better results in their healing process A total of 100 children will be randomly selected from a randomly selected Louisiana state facility for children who have been sexually abused The children will be selected through simple-random sampling Will art therapy reduce the symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in children who have been sexually abused? The art therapy will consist of painting and drawing The IV will be art therapy Each child will go through one 50 minute session per week for ten weeks In regards to compensation, each participant's name will be put into a drawing for two 50 dollar gift certificates The children will each be given the Child PTSD Symptom Scale (CPSS) before therapy begins and again after therapy is complete There is no controlling for gender, so it is likely the majority of participants will be female and this will make the results unbalanced with mostly female based results Measurement Cont'd If the results of this study go as predicted, then art therapy will lessen the symptoms of PTSD in children who have been sexually abused Research Question These findings are very important because they can greatly help in therapy within the population of children survivors of sexual abuse 50 kids will be in an age group ranging from 12-15 years of age The CV will be the age of the children Results

Transcript: The Impact of Self-Grading on Middle School English Students’ Writing Skills Angelica Smith - University of Maryland Abstract Superficial teacher feedback on writing assignments combined with little to no student effort to reflect on any feedback keeps students from the opportunity to refine essential metacognitive skills. Previous research indicates that self-grading is an effective strategy for students to practice metacognitive awareness. After 9 weeks of instruction incorporating either self-grading or providing traditional teacher feedback for reflection on writing assignments, gains of 85 seventh graders’ writing scores for organization will be analyzed to determine the extent to which the metacognitive experience of self-grading improves performance. Empirical evidence should help teachers ascertain whether the time-consuming practice of self-grading is valuable to student learning. Statement of Problem Peer- and Self-assessment are not as widely practiced as they could be because teachers' goals are to save as much time as possible and to ensure grade accuracy for all students. Logistical, pedagogical, and metacognitive benefits of peer- and self-assessment were contested and needed to be put to the test. Students don't reflect on teacher feedback on writing assignments and miss out on opportunities to refine metacognitive skills necessary for learning. Significance The proposed study contributes more knowledge about the benefits of self-assessment on student learning The proposed study helps teachers ascertain the value of incorporating self-assessment into their regular practice in improving performance, despite how much time is required for planning and preparation. Research Foundation The Impact of Self- and Peer-Grading on Student Learning Philip M. Sadler and Eddie Good After a Supreme Court decision in favor of peer-grading in classrooms, Sadler and Good decide to put benefits of self- and peer-grading to the test that are of teacher interest (p. 13) Participants included four middle school science classrooms Issues of interest: Student grades as substitute for teacher grades Student grading as a tool for student learning Results: High correlation between teacher and student grades Bias within student grading in self- and peer-assessment Self-assessment students made most gains in test scores Rationale for Proposed Study Test familiarity could have effected results Realistic assessment to determine student learning Research Questions / Hypotheses To what extent does the experience of self-assessment (training and process) impact students' writing organizational skills? Students who participate in self-assessment will improve their writing organizational skills significantly more than comparison students. Methods Participants 113 students in 4 sections of seventh grade English and their teacher No previous instruction on concept being taught during data collection Same age-range as students in original study / Studying different content Measure Scoring Guide for Writing - five or six traits writing rubric; traits include: Ideas & Content, Organization, Word Choice, (Voice,) Sentence Fluency, and Conventions; scores range from 1-lowest to 5-highest. The proposed study will target scores in Organziation. Different from measure in original study in that it is county-/teacher-designed, not student-designed, and assessess aspects of writing instead of science. Procedure All students receive instruction on the Well-Developed Paragraph (WDP) formula: a tool students are required to use to structure WDP's when writing literary analysis. 2 sections in control group (receive traditional teacher feedback on writing assessments); 2 sections in experimental group (trained and participate in self-assessment process) Of the four WDP's written to assess mastery of reading and writing skills, organization scores for first and fourth WDP will be collected. Data Analysis To what extent does the experience of self-assessment impact student's writing organizational skills? Descriptive statistics (means and standard deviations) are calculated in both groups for the first and fourth WDP. Gains from first to fourth WDP are calculated, and mean gains are found. t-test is conducted to determine the significance of the gains in both groups.

Why This topic/Conversation? The Conversation/Topic: Modern-day education Education has many implications both on the individual and societal level There are many different types of learners in school Technology-based learning can appeal to a wide variety of learners On the Societal Level: 1. It can lead to a more productive society 2. It can lead to a stronger public commons On the Individual Level: 1. Better problem-solvers 2. Better Students Finding a specific website - limited sources talking about its positive and negative effects Figuring Out the Functionality of the Website Focusing on a specific age-group. Would it even work for elementary school students? Would starting with high school students be too late? Challenges Challenges creativity as an emergent property creativity as an emergent property Research Question: How has Evernote, a website that promotes collaborative-based learning, led to the formation of a more enhanced and evolved creativity known as group creativity? Technology Based Creative- Problem Solving Has Two Phases: 1. The Divergent Phase - Exploring, characterized by messiness - Evaluating Data 2. The Convergent Phase - Honing onto specific things. Extracting important information out of clutter. - Focusing on specific solutions Terms for Interaction and Collaboration: Synchronic Interactions - Interactions that occur simultaneously Diachronic Exchanges - Interactions that occur over a longer period of time "Recent models of group creativity (Sawyer, 2003) argue that collective creative work has to be understood as the synergy between synchronic interactions (i.e., parallel and simultaneous) and diachronic exchanges (i.e., interaction over long time spans and mediated by ostensible products)" (Sarmiento, Stahl 503). Quote Quote Potential Conclusions Potential Conclusions Online collaborative-based learning can lead to a greater extent of creativity People would be better suited to solve modern problems If I'm wrong: Technology will be a distraction. Students will find ways to cheat. Ultimately, a case should be made for using a specific website - being more technology dependent - because it can lead to creativity Sarmiento, Johann W. and Gerry Stahl.

Transcript: Research problem Purpose of this study is determine the difference that Early Childhood programs have on students who attend them prior to kindergarten. Hypothesis An effective Early Childhood program does improve a child's academic, cognitive, and social skills prior to kindergarten and throughout their school life. Research questions 1. What educational and social benefits are there for a child who starts a school program earlier? 2. Are state social standards necessary for Early Childhood Programs Methodology This research is a quantitative study because it looks at the effect of Early Childhood Educations prior to kindergarten. The interviews in this study will be performed in either a focus group setting or personal setting. The interviews and questionnaires will include both open and closed ended questions. Sample participants A total of about 75-100 kindergarten students enrolled in the Tulsa surrounding area with one kindergarten class from three different public schools will participate in this study. Not only will the students be in the study but also their teachers, parents and school administrators will also be part of the study. Results and conclusion The results will show that Early Childhood Education does make a difference in a student prior to kindergarten. The results will hopefully prove that parents are involved in their child's education prior to kindergarten and during kindergarten. Future studies could include not only following the kids during kindergarten but also throughout their entire schooling to see how Early Childhood Education effects their schooling form kindergarten to 12th grade.
