Beginning Teacher Support Model: Elementary Teachers’ Resilience and Retention in Arizona

In the United States, beginning teacher retention rates are extraordinarily low; only 50% of teachers remain in the classroom after five years. In particular, the State of Arizona has been recruiting significant numbers of teachers from out of state and attempting to retain them with minimal success. This persistent problem has led the neediest of students to have teachers with lower levels of professional experience, leaving those students with continually lower achievement gains. Drawing on integrated action research and grounded theory methodology, this study’s took place in a large kindergarten to eighth grade elementary school district located in a high-poverty neighborhood in Arizona. The study invited six new teachers in their first year of teaching to explore innovative strategies to increase these teachers’ retention in the profession. The ultimate goal was to understand how such support might alter a beginning teacher’s perceptions of their own persistence and resilience in dealing with the challenges of first-year teaching, thereby reducing beginning teacher attrition. The study finds that teachers must be nurtured and cared for in order for them to fully devote their time and energy to effectively care for the students in their classroom. Increasing self-awareness and resiliency has the potential to create a ripple effect to retain more beginning teachers, as they become more likely to persevere, ask for help, connect with others, and achieve a healthy life/work balance while positively impacting students and their community.

Automated Feedback and Automated Scoring in the Elementary Grades: Usage, Attitudes, and Associations with Writing Outcomes in a Districtwide Implementation of MI Write

This study examined a naturalistic, districtwide implementation of an automated writing evaluation (AWE) software program called MI Write in elementary schools. We specifically examined the degree to which aspects of MI Write were implemented, teacher and student attitudes towards MI Write, and whether MI Write usage along with other predictors like demographics and writing self-efficacy explained variability in students’ performance on a proximal and distal measure of writing performance. The participants included 1935 students in Grades 3–5 and 135 writing teachers from 14 elementary schools in a mid-Atlantic school district. Findings indicated that though MI Write was somewhat under-utilized, teachers and students held positive attitudes towards the AWE system. Usage of MI Write had a mixed and limited predictive effect on outcomes: The number of essays written had a small predictive effect on state test performance for Grades 3 and 5; gain on revision had a moderate predictive effect on posttest writing quality and a small predictive effect for Grade 5 state test performance. Students’ average AWE scores showed consistently moderate to large predictive effects for all outcomes. Interpreted in light of the underlying architecture of MI Write, findings have implications for other school districts considering implementing AWE as well as the design of AWE systems intended to support the teaching and learning of writing.

No significant relationships were found between the school officials’ concern about environmental issues with the school’s sustainability score. Conclusion: Elementary schools in district three of Tehran are at a relatively desired status based on the indicators of sustainability, but given the importance of designing ecosystem-compatible educational spaces, more attention should be paid to the design of schools based on the sustainability index.

Differentiated Instruction and Improving Student Learning: A Qualitative Study

Administration and ministers of elementary schools located in the target district in the Caribbean reported that some elementary teachers were inconsistently implementing differentiated instruction (DI) in their practice. Based on the identified problem, it was unclear which specific strategies of DI were causing teachers to experience barriers or challenges during the process of implementation. The purpose of this basic qualitative study was to explore teacher perceptions in one district about their implementation of the conceptual framework, Weimer’s learner-centered teaching theory DI model, in their classroom instruction. Data from schools in one elementary school district in the Beach School District were collected through virtual interviews with 15 teacher participants who had 5 to 10 years of teaching experience for Grades 5 to 6. Data were analyzed with open coding using the RADaR model of analysis. Results indicated that, when teachers use limited and repetitive DI strategies, their use of the DI model in their practice is inconsistent. In addition, teachers indicated they would benefit from some additional training on alternative DI strategies as well as how to effectively differentiate their instruction consistently. The results of this research may contribute to positive social change by providing classroom teachers with additional resources and training to improve the implementation of DI in the classroom and enhance the learning experiences of students.

Racial Representation and Socialization in Bureaucratic Organizational Structures

Organizational scholars employing the theory of representative bureaucracy in their research have found that when public school teacher demographics mirror those of their students, teachers positively affect student performance. Little is known, however, about how organizational socialization affects positive representational effects on student outcomes. Teachers, however, are socialized differently into the organizational structure, largely through organizational social norms based on various professional aspects. This article analyzes the impact of professional socialization on representativeness by teachers’ credentials, employment status, and education levels. Using Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) elementary school data during the 2012–2014 school years, results show that representational effects differ depending on dimensions of student outcomes, and socialization moderating effects vary on the relationship between teacher representation and performance outcomes. Socialization positively moderates the teacher’s representational effect on student outcomes in terms of teachers with advanced degrees, full credentials, and tenure, which depend on the type of school. Charter schools exhibit the positive socialization effect of tenure status, whereas traditional schools show the positive effect of advanced degrees and full credentials. This research enhances our knowledge of the different socialization aspects and how they differ between charter and traditional schools as well as its impact on representation in highly diverse urban elementary schools, contributing to both theory and practice.

CONTAMINATION OF ESCHERICHIA COLI BACTERIA IN SCHOOL CHILDREN'S FOOD (PJAS) IN CAKUNG DISTRICT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Food is a basic human need that is needed at all times and requires good and correct management so that it does not become a medium of disease transmission. Cakung district is the area with the highest incidence of diarrhea in the age group of 5-9 years in East Jakarta in January-June 2016 with 373 cases. Based on preliminary studies it is known that 87% of snack food in Cakung District elementary school is positively contaminated with E.colibacteria. This study aims to find out the contamination of Escherichia coli bacteria in School Children's Food (PJAS) in Cakung District elementary school in 2016. The research design used is cross sectional. The sample of this study amounted to 60 food handlers taken by cluster sampling. Data analysis is conducted univariate and bivariate using the chi squaretest. The results of this study showed that as many as 45% of PJAS positively contaminated with E.colibacteria. Contamination of E.coli bacteria in food is related to the practice of using food serving aids (p = 0.044), where we store cooked food (p = 0.007) and the way of serving (p = 0.02). However, E.coli bacterial contamination is not associated with the practice of washing hands with soap (p = 1.00), washing equipment (p = 0.783), types of selling facilities (p = 0.775), and the existence of sanitation facilities (1.00). The school is advised to collect traders who sell around the school and conduct coaching and empowerment by providing stimulants in the form of completeness of selling facilities, such as the provision of sanitation facilities and trash cans. In addition, hawker food traders are advised to maintain personal hygiene and the environment around the food processing site to avoid the occurrence of bacterial contamination and other disease agents that can enter the food.

A Call for Computer Recess: The Impact of Computer Activities on Predominantly Minority Students’ Technology and Application Self-Efficacy

The digital divide limits the flow of potential students through the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) pipeline and into STEM careers. The digital divide is a dynamic and constantly evolving concept of digital exclusion that encompasses numerous dimensions and levels. The “usage access gap” and the “second-level divide” both account for differences in how digitally divided people actually use technology. In this study, we employ social cognitive theory as a framework to explore the impact of various kinds of technology usage on predominately minority students’ technology and application self-efficacy. Data were gathered over the course of a large-scale computing intervention that took place in an elementary school district in the southeastern United States. Results indicate that usage access gap activities and second-level divide activities, such as playing games or talking to friends online, may actually help increase students’ technology self-efficacy and computer application self-efficacy. Entertainment and social networking activities provide students with positive direct experiences with technology, which may help close this dimension/level of the digital divide over time. Future computing interventions should consider establishing dedicated “computer recess” time to help digitally divided students increase their technology self-efficacy.

School–Supervised Use of a Once-Daily Inhaled Corticosteroid Regimen: A Cluster Randomized Trial

To evaluate the efficacy of school-supervised administration of once-daily inhaled corticosteroid to improve asthma control and reduce school absences in a primarily low-income Latino population.Students with asthma in 20 Tucson Unified School District elementary schools were selected to represent a large urban school population of low-income Latino students.The study was a 2-year, cluster-randomized, delayed-intervention trial comparing 9 months of supervised, unblinded, open-label mometasone furoate therapy with usual care. At entry, schools were randomized 1:1 to immediately initiate supervised therapy or delay implementation until year 2. Need for controller therapy was based on in-person evaluation the first year and by telemedicine during the second year. Medication was administered by school health personnel once daily on weekdays; parents were instructed to continue their own home medication during weekends and holidays. The primary outcome was change in Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) score. Secondary outcomes included absences, unscheduled medical visits and hospitalizations, and oral steroid use.Nine hundred ninety-five (11%) of 8916 students reported asthma; 393 (39%) students enrolled, and 332 provided adequate data for analysis. Mean age was 8.1 years. At baseline, only one-fourth had well-controlled asthma. Thirty-nine percent reported controller medication use, and 80% were prescribed controller medication after clinical evaluation. During year 1, the mean ACQ score for students receiving immediate intervention did not significantly differ from those receiving delayed intervention. Medications were administered 98% of the time when students were at school; however, total calendar adherence was 53% due to absences, weekends, and holidays. Average school absences were noted to be 16 and 15 in immediate- and delayed-intervention groups, respectively, with only 4 to 5 of those due to asthma.School-supervised administration of once-daily inhaled corticosteroid did not result in improved asthma control as measured by ACQ, school absences, or health care use when compared with usual care in an urban, low-income, Latino elementary school population. Because of absences, weekends, and school holidays, the regimen achieved 53% calendar adherence despite excellent adherence to school-administered dosing. Further research is needed to clearly define the minimal adherence necessary to result in meaningful improvement in asthma control.There are numerous studies illustrating the benefits of school-supervised asthma therapy; this study provides a real-world application of school-based intervention with humbling but important results. Unique characteristics of the low-income Latino population and minimal research staff involvement may have played a role in outcomes and deserve further study. Of note is the high overall absenteeism rate and low calendar adherence rate. Hence, institution of school medication administration programs alone may not sufficiently impact asthma control without addressing home dosing and other societal determinants of school attendance and overall health.
