SUMMARY:Faculty Research Talk
DESCRIPTION:Join Leanna Lawter\, Associate Professor of Business & Management for an upcoming Faculty Research Talk\, Effectiveness of Flipped Classroom Format in Quantitative and Non-Quantitative Business Courses – A Meta-Analysis. \nPresenters will begin by discussing their topic\, and each session will close with a question and answer segment. All presentations are virtual and free and the Zoom link will be sent the day before this discussion. \nThe current meta-analysis investigates two student outcomes of the flipped or inverted classroom format in quantitative and non-quantitative business courses: knowledge acquisition and satisfaction. Data was collected through a search of nine databases to identify empirical studies which compared student outcomes in flipped classrooms to lecture classrooms. A total of 35 studies were identified for inclusion in the study. Results show that flipped format had a positive effect on knowledge acquisition for both quantitative and non-quantitative courses as compared to lecture courses. The impact in non-quantitative courses on knowledge acquisition was larger than the effect in quantitative courses\, but was not statistically significant. Student satisfaction in flipped classrooms as compared to lecture classes was higher in quantitative courses\, but not statistically significant. The implications for business education is to not use flipped classroom approach as a universal format for instruction but in courses where students benefit from self-directed learning and the increased workload for students merits the gains in learning. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Faculty Research Talk
DESCRIPTION:Join Kathy Morgan\, Associate Professor of Psychology for an upcoming Faculty Research Talk\, Healing Dakota: A Story of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder in Working Dogs. \nPresenters will begin by discussing their topic\, and each session will close with a question and answer segment. All presentations are virtual and free and the Zoom link will be sent the day before this discussion. \nAn estimated 50\,000 working dogs are deployed in law enforcement in the US\, most of whom are routinely exposed to dangerous and stressful conditions as a daily part of their jobs. Just as with humans\, some individuals are resilient in the face of such stress\, but others are not so fortunate\, and become so overwhelmed by anxiety that they become dangerous and no longer deployable. In this talk\, I will talk about recognizing signs of stress in dogs\, and reading dog behaviors that can sometimes be quite subtle\, but whose understanding can help prevent canine aggression. Using K9 Officer Dakota and his story as a case study\, I will also present a brief history of dogs in law enforcement\, and talk about my work and the work of Wheaton College students at the K9 PTSD Center in Seekonk\, a nonprofit dedicated to the rehabilitation of law enforcement working dogs with post-traumatic stress disorder as a result of their time in service. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Faculty Research Talk
DESCRIPTION:Join Sara Donaldson\, Assistant Professor of Education for an upcoming Faculty Research Talk\, Leveraging Collective Doubt to Deepen Learning. \nPresenters will begin by discussing their topic\, and each session will close with a question and answer segment. All presentations are virtual and free and the Zoom link will be sent the day before this discussion. \nTransformational change within social contexts\, such as schools\, requires a cohesive vision and action plan. This work can be promoted by providing the individuals involved with structured opportunities to collectively grapple with the nuances of terminology and facets of related initiatives in terms of expectations for what the work looks like in practice. Using narrative data collected from field research with mathematics instructional leaders\, this faculty research talk will unpack a five-phase framework shown to provide this needed structure. By positioning moments of doubt as opportunities for collaborative learning\, this framework serves as a flexible structure to guide shared knowledge development from the initial identification of a shared goal to cohesive understanding and systemic transformation. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Greater Boston Wheaton Club MFA Event
DESCRIPTION:The Greater Boston Wheaton Club invites you to the Museum of Fine Arts\, Fashioned by Sargent Exhibit and a reception prior to the exhibit. \nOrganized with Tate Britain\, “Fashioned by Sargent” explores the John Singer Sargent’s complex relationship with his often-affluent clients and their clothes. The exhibition reveals Sargent’s power over his sitters’ images by considering the liberties he took with sartorial choices to express distinctive personalities\, social positions\, professions\, gender identities\, and nationalities. Alongside about 50 paintings by Sargent\, over a dozen period garments and accessories shed new light on the relationship between fashion and this beloved artist’s creative practice. \n\n\n6 p.m. – Meet at the New American Cafe (located in the MFA) to gather before entering the exhibit at the 6:30 and 7 p.m. ticket times. \nThis event is sold out.

SUMMARY:Faculty Research Talk
DESCRIPTION:Join Sarah Christensen\, Brown/Wheaton Faculty Fellow\, History Department\, for an upcoming Faculty Research Talk\, Marriage as a Path to Freedom for Enslaved Women in the Early Middle Ages. \nPresenters will begin by discussing their topic\, and each session will close with a question and answer segment. All presentations are virtual and free and the Zoom link will be sent the day before this discussion. \nDescription: I examine how enslaved women in the early Middle Ages approached marriage and childbearing as means to secure emancipation. According to a long legal tradition dating to the Roman classical period and lingering in the law codes of both medieval western Europe and Byzantium\, marriage offered enslaved women a change in social position as well as a specific transformation of legal status from unfree to free. Looking at legal documents and narrative sources\, I examine how individual women strategically leveraged marriage and childbearing to achieve desires that included but were not limited to emancipation\, and how these women calculated possibilities for improvement using knowledge of their legal status\, social standing\, and sexual value. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Faculty Research Talk
DESCRIPTION:Join Alessandra Ward\, Asst. Professor of Education\, for an upcoming Faculty Research Talk\, Want your child to be a strong reader? Prioritize social-emotional learning. \nPresenters will begin by discussing their topic\, and each session will close with a question and answer segment. All presentations are virtual and free and the Zoom link will be sent the day before this discussion. \nThe topics of elementary reading education and social-emotional learning (SEL) frequently appear in current news headlines\, often as a subject of debate. However\, many (if not all!) teachers and families would agree that we want our children to be confident\, capable readers and writers\, and that we also want them to be able to participate in classroom and community life\, get along with their peers\, develop their talents\, and learn to make responsible decisions. This talk will lay out the theoretical and empirical support behind how teaching SEL in school can positively support children’s literacy development\, and vice versa. Practical suggestions will be given for how teachers and families of elementary-aged children can leverage synergies between SEL and literacy; for example\, criteria for selecting read-aloud picture books that can address goals in both content areas. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Day of Giving
DESCRIPTION:Wheaton College’s Day of Giving is a one-day online fundraising drive. Each year\, Wheaton’s Day of Giving brings Wheaties together from around the world–alumni\, parents\, students\, faculty & staff\, and friends–to give back and to celebrate what they care most about the College. \nIn honor of Wheaton opening its doors to it’s first fifty pupils on April 22\, Wheaton’s Day of Giving celebrates the abundant lives that have manifested due to Wheaton’s tradition of providing a life-changing liberal arts education. \nBy supporting Wheaton students during the annual Day of Giving\, you help future generations of innovators\, leaders\, and creators embrace our motto\, “That they may have life\, and may have it abundantly.” \nWe put together a Volunteer Toolkit for those who would like to become an advocate and help us spread the word. \nMark your calendar and dust off your Wheaton gear. April 22 will be a virtual celebration of all things Wheaton. And it simply wouldn’t be a Wheaton party without you! \nMake Your Gift

SUMMARY:Faculty Research Talk
DESCRIPTION:Join Ada McKenzie Thomas\, Asst. Professor of English\, for an upcoming Faculty Research Talk\, Abbey Lincoln’s Spiritual Roots. \nPresenters will begin by discussing their topic\, and each session will close with a question and answer segment. All presentations are virtual and free and the Zoom link will be sent the day before this discussion. \nDescription: In this talk\, I examine Abbey Lincoln’s rootedness in spirituality as evinced in her poetry and songwriting from the latter part of her career. Her albums\, Talking to the Sun (1983)\, Devil’s Got Your Tongue (1992)\, Wholly Earth (1999)\, as well as poems from her unpublished collection\, In a Circle\, Everything is Up\, reveal her lifelong identity as a fervent roots-seeker\, a spiritual sojourner in search of truth and understanding. \nA multifaceted artist whose career traversed the Civil Rights and Black Arts Movements\, and intersected with Black feminisms and Pan-Africanist discourses\, Lincoln’s concerns frequently echo those of other writers and artists of the various eras through which she lived. Lincoln’s thematic eclecticism is a hallmark of her songwriting\, poetry\, and prose\, however her work remains rooted in a deeply personal and spiritual exploration. This talk explores the motifs of this spiritual sojourn emerging from Lincoln’s latter works\, as based upon the archival research that I have conducted for my manuscript on Lincoln’s life in letters\, Aminata: Abbey Lincoln’s Song of Faith\, to be published by Rutgers University Press. \nRegister
