Courses Offered By Urban Education

UED 71200—Qualitative Data Analysis in Bilingual Education and TESOL, W 415- 615p 3

Credits, Menken [30270]

This course is designed to provide both theoretical and practical opportunities to analyze and

interpret qualitative data. Although our focus is particularly on educational research in bilingual

education and Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL), the methods of

data analysis we examine are used in many fields and thus would be applicable across disciplines

that engage in qualitative research. We introduce various analytical approaches, explore their

use, and guide students in applying them to empirical data in order to prepare data for analysis,

organize data, interpret data, draw conclusions, and present findings. The use of computer-

assisted qualitative data analysis software will also be introduced. This is a hands-on course in

which students will analyze educational data that has already been collected. Students may

analyze their own data (e.g., that was gathered for a course, pilot study, or dissertation) or may

analyze data we will provide from the CUNY-New York State Initiative for Emergent Bilinguals

(CUNY-NYSIEB) project’s data set.

U ED 72200—Mindfulness and STEM Education, T 415 – 615 P, 3 Credits, Bayne and

Forbes [30272]

This course will examine novel, contemporary and foundational methodological approaches and

the application of mindfulness into STEM education, and more broadly into the learning sciences

(i.e., the science of teaching and learning in formal and informal contexts). An overarching goal

of the course is to understand, develop and contribute to a nexus of theories, ideas, research

activities and practices that can be used to improve teaching and learning experiences at the

student, teacher, teacher education and policy levels via drawing from a sociocultural framework

and the Integral Model. Students can look forward to growing as scholars, researchers, global

citizens and reform minded education leaders, while they come away from the course experience

with an awareness of a) the psychological, social, cultural, and political context of STEM and the

learning sciences b) their own values, thoughts, and feelings about teaching urban youth STEM

content that is synergistically aligned to mindfulness practices, and c) the psychological, social,

cultural, and political context of the lifeworlds of urban youth and their relationships to STEM.

We will teach and use the mindfully infused STEM practices with the intention to share best

possible outcomes for urban youth and for society in a holistic way.

Through the Integral model students will (a) be exposed generally to mindfulness, (b) learn about

the recent controversies around the use of mindfulness in education and in other institutions, and

as a component of this, mindfulness will be examined in relation to science – both the science of

mindfulness, and the controversy over why mindfulness proponents believe there is a need turn

to the sciences in order to be taken seriously, and (c) examine mindfulness and meditation in

integral terms, so as to find a conscious, integrally informed way to use it. The integration will

be considered in the context of both being educators and people interested in personally and

socially promoting optimal human development, and in working with urban youth, while

bringing in mindfulness as a critical, socially conscious force for personal and social change, not

just as a technology. We will examine the use mindfulness in dialogue in the classroom, and use

it to look at and/practice dialogue around difficult issues like white privilege and Black Lives

Matter, and challenging sources of power in society.

UED 75200—Exploring Connection between Disability, Imagination, and Creative

Expression, H 6:30 - 8:30p, 3 Credits, Bursztyn [30275] Embracing the ethos of social inclusion this seminar explores ways by which supporting

children's imagination and creativity, rather than focusing narrowly on ‘normalization’, present

multiple opportunities for fostering development in diverse contexts. The course addresses

emerging challenges to traditional notions of disability and considers their implications for

innovative curriculum and therapeutic practices. Multi-media exploration and experiential

learning opportunities are integrated into classwork and course assignments.

U ED 73200—School Choice, M 630 - 830p, 3 Credits, Kafka [30273] School “choice,” once a buzzword that appealed to a limited set of political players, has now

become the norm in most urban school systems in the United States and is rapidly spreading into

suburban districts as well. In this seminar we will consider the history and theory behind school

“choice” and investigate what it looks like on the ground in various settings – from districtwide

choice here in New York City, to vouchers in Milwaukee, to charter schools in the suburbs of

Minnesota and Delaware, to choice-based programs in international settings such as Sweden and

Chile. Through reading, class discussion, and independent research, students will gain an

understanding of the multiple arguments surrounding choice and their respective policy

implications.

Looking For Adjuncts for Advanced Experimental Courses @ Queens College for Spring 2016

From: Andrea Li [mailto:[email protected]] We are looking for adjunct instructors to teach two of our capstone courses in Psychology this spring, both are advanced experimental psychology courses, one focused on Learning and the other focused on Behavior Modification. The days and times are below. These courses are writing intensive (usually 3-5 APA formatted reports are required) with a max of 24 students. The courses meet 6 hours per week. We have master instructors for each course with whom the adjuncts can consult for support regarding materials and syllabi. I have attached sample syllabi for both courses. If you know of any suitable adjuncts who have previously taught lab courses in experimental psych and/or research design who might be interested in either of these, could you please email me directly ASAP? Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you, Andrea Li, Ph.D. Associate Professor Acting Deputy Chair Department of Psychology Queens College CUNY 65-30 Kissena Blvd Flushing, NY 11367 718-997-3058 718-997-3257 FAX PSYCH 311 04 Adv Exp Psy: Learning MW 06:30PM 09:20PM RZ-220

Assignments: Exercises: Exercises will be assigned during the semester. In order to receive full credit, exercises must be completed to the instructor’s satisfaction. Attendance: Attendance will be taken twice during each class meeting. Attendance is mandatory as each Sunday class meeting is the equivalent of two classes during the weekday regular semester. The instructor reserves the right to adjust a student’s grades to reflect their class attendance (see undergraduate bulletin for details). If you miss a significant portion of the class you may need to drop the course and retake it when you have more time. It is the student’s responsibility to acquire information that they have missed when they were not in class. I am not responsible for information that you did not receive because you were not in class. This includes schedule changes and assignments announced in class.

Makeup exams will be scheduled by the instructor and may not necessarily be the same format as regular exams (essay). All exam materials are to be given back to the instructor, taking any exam materials will be considered cheating. Quizzes: Throughout the semester 20 quizzes will be given. Quizzes count for 20% of your final grade. Typically quizzes will be conducted during the first 5 minutes of class, additional quizzes may be given after the break. If you are not in your seat at the start of class you will not receive a quiz. Quizzes cannot be made up for any reason, if you do not take a quiz a zero will be recorded for that grade.
