Youth Delinquency

This article proposes a new theoretical model for studying family involvement in youth delinquency cases in juvenile court. It argues that before we can assess the family’s effect on case outcomes, we must first have a clearer understanding about the process by which family involvement is formed to consider the myriad factors that go beyond the idea of a ‘good’ or ‘bad’ parent. Based on qualitative data on families in New York City Family Court, this article shows how family involvement is not a predetermined factor but rather, the result of the institutional process itself as shaped by the family’s interactions with court staff as well as the youths’ behaviors and interactions with parents and staff.

12Th Grade

Youth of color enrolled in urban public high schools, particularly those students who seek to be the first in their families to graduate from college, frequently encounter barriers to their college readiness and access. This study engaged an analytic approach built with culturally relevant and sustaining theories of education to examine how 10 youth of color enrolled in 12th grade at a Title 1 public high school in New York City provided and/or received support from peers as they navigated such barriers. The study utilized a youth co-researcher methodology to amplify student voices about an issue directly connected to their lives. Two findings emerged across data analysis: (1) students asserted collective notions of academic achievement and (2) challenged what they perceived as inequitable access to resources and opportunities as they supported their peers’ college readiness and access. Taken together these findings provide new insights into possibilities for building from students’ interactions with peers across contexts of curriculum, teaching, and research in urban schools.

Points Of View

Although Higher-Order Thinking Skill (HOTS) has currently been an ongoing topic of interest among educational researchers, there has been no wide exploration of such notion and its relation to the learning assessment. This instrumental case study aimed to investigate attitudes of Indonesian pre-service English teachers with reference to using HOTS-based test to prepare better assessment. The study was qualitatively conducted to scrutinize the participants’ attitudes on using the HOTS framework in designing more qualified assessment for students. The data were obtained through interview and questionnaire. The total of 10 pre-service teachers participating in the study were purposively chosen regarding their familiarity and comprehension with the study issue. The data were analyzed by employing descriptive qualitative data analysis. The result indicated that in spite of some situational restrictions, all of the participants shared their positive attitude towards HOTS principles to be adopted in providing better assessment from the affective, behavioral and cognitive points of view due to some influencing factors. More researches on the area of HOTS and its implementation on the area of assessment were also expected to furnish more contributive information in this issue.
