SUMMARY:Schooling for Critical Consciousness: Engaging Black and Latinx Youth in Analyzing\, Navigating\, and Challenging Racial Injustice.  A lecture by Scott Seider and Daren Graves.
DESCRIPTION:Schooling for Critical Consciousness addresses how schools can help Black and Latinx youth resist the negative effects of racial injustice and challenge its root causes. Scott Seider and Daren Graves draw on a four-year longitudinal study examining how five different mission-driven urban high schools foster critical consciousness among their students. The book presents vivid portraits of the schools as they implement various programs and practices\, and traces the impact of these approaches on the students themselves. \nGuests must register (anytime in advance) using this link in order to receive a Zoom invite: \nRegister on Zoom \nHosted by the Consortium for Excellence in Teacher Education\, Education Department\, SGA and the The Marshall Center.

SUMMARY:MLK Legacy Celebration:  Critical Hope in Context of Crisis
DESCRIPTION:Keynote by Dr. Jamila Lyiscott\nAspiring way-maker\, community-engaged scholar\, and author of Black Appetite. White Food: Issues of Race\, Voice\, and Justice Within and Beyond the Classroom. \nThe 2020 coronavirus pandemic has changed our systems of education forever. Teacher shortages and attacks on teaching accurate historical and contemporary realities of race continue to compound the ways that schooling has long been a site of crisis for Black and Brown youth. But what if the crisis is a catalyst? One that compels us to come to terms with a broken education system that must be transformed in ways that are aligned with equity and justice for all. \nIn this talk\, Dr. J will share her Fugitive Action Framework as a lens for moving beyond “mythical hope”–empty promises of true change–and developing critical\, tangible hope to support the building of essential new futures. \nVirtual event via Zoom\, registration required. \nRegister on Zoom \nWe are having campus watch parties and if you contact the Marshall Center at marshallcenter@wheatoncollege.edu to let us know of your watch party\, we will prepare a watch party snack bag for your group.

SUMMARY:Critical Access Studies
DESCRIPTION:Much of the literature about accessibility seeks to convince architects of the significance of inclusion. However\, the field of Critical Access Studies has emerged in the last 10-15 years to raise additional questions of what counts as access\, who benefits\, and how designers can know. Aimi Hamraie will discuss some of the insights of Critical Access Studies that can better inform the theory and practice of accessible design. \nAimi Hamraie is Associate Professor of Medicine\, Health\, & Society and American Studies at Vanderbilt University\, and director of the Critical Design Lab\, a collaborative of disabled designers\, artists\, and researchers working within a disability culture framework. Hamraie is also the author of Building Access: Universal Design and the Politics of Disability. They are a recent appointee to the United States Access Board. \nJoin Zoom Event here. \n\nDesigning for Difference brings innovative design leaders\, thinkers and humanists to campus\, to celebrate the inauguration of Wheaton’s new Design program. Anchored in the History and Theory of Design course\, this spring the WIIH asks students\, staff\, and faculty to challenge the concept of “normal” and reconsider what makes design inclusive.  All events are open to the public. \nPresented by the Evelyn Danzig Haas ’39 Visiting Artists Program.

SUMMARY:Faculty Research Talk
DESCRIPTION:Join Miranda Yaver\, Assistant Professor of Political Science n for an upcoming Faculty Research Talk\, Damages Denied: The Impact of ERISA’s Statutory Design on Patients’ Access to Health Care. \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. \nDespite being written primarily as a pension law\, the Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) of 1974 has come to apply to the majority of employer-sponsored health plans in the United States. However\, despite its health care salience\, it has a key statutory design feature that limits patients’ ability to access their prescribed care: it precludes damages recovery for those who have been denied health coverage\, an insurance practice that is pervasive and increasing. The absence of litigation incentives creates perverse incentives for insurers because it makes it all the more unlikely that patients will be able to obtain legal representation\, such that insurers may deny with impunity. Drawing on extant literature on path dependence and on ERISA’s history and implementation\, legislative history\, and interviews with key congressional staffers\, this paper evaluates this statutory design’s persistence across moments of health care reform including the Patients’ Bill of Rights and the Affordable Care Act\, and the ways in which this can not only limit patients’ rights upon a coverage denial but exacerbates inequities in the American health care system and reduces health insurer accountability in a manner that can perpetuate the denials themselves. \nRegister

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

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: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
