Master Of Education

An increase in the number of Indigenous teachers and education administrators is an important way to help improve Indigenous educational outcomes. However, while Indigenous teacher education programs in western Canada are registering increasing enrolments, master of education programs that prioritize Indigenous perspectives and pedagogies are rare in Canada. Using conversational method, this study examines experiences of six Indigenous students in a community-based master of education program that is a first of its kind in western Canada. The program is delivered by an Indigenous institution in partnership with a public university. The study is grounded in an Indigenous paradigm, namely, the Nehinuw (Cree) concepts of teaching and learning. Content analysis of data revealed five themes and sub-themes: (a) self-doubt; (b) a feeling of guilt as a result of family-work-school conflict; (c) self-advocacy; (d) re/connection with self, culture, and heritage; and (e) professional transformation. In general, a master of education degree is a requirement for educational administration positions including vice principal, principal, and superintendent. Understanding and acting upon the kinds of strategies that could enhance the success of Indigenous students in graduate programs is a key policy step in addressing the existing gaps in educational attainment between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians.

Approach To Teaching

In many higher education and student affairs graduate programs the responsibility for providing field-based learning often falls on the graduate assistantship. Programs often situate theoretical learning inside the classroom and practical engagement at the assistantship site. The growing urgency for educators to create transformative learning experiences and to integrate deep interactions with issues of social justice into the classroom challenges graduate faculty to re-evaluate their approach to teaching and learning. In this chapter, the author makes the case for adopting a creative, community-based, and culturally engaging approach to teaching in graduate education programs.

Ways Of Being

In this article, we summarize research on Prince Edward Island where a Prince Edward Island teacher, identifying as an a/r/tographer, designed a digital and multiliteracies unit, as part of a directed studies course in her Master of Education program. Small in scope, this single participant case study was designed to give a fuller picture to three difficulties teachers often face when teaching new literacies. These are (1) applying multiliteracies theory, (2) thinking across literacies domains, and (3) assessing literacies holistically. Findings are derived from our six research conversations, and our discussion highlights the necessity of artistic ways of being and thinking for teacher education programs in the 21stcentury.

Bu ortamlarda çalışacak nitelikte sağlık insan gücü yetiştirmek için kullanılan en etkin yöntemlerden biri toplum temelli eğitim programlarıdır. Türkiye’de hemşire yetiştiren eğitim kurumlarının programlarında toplum temelli eğitime kısmen yer verildiği ancak toplum temelli eğitim programlarının olmadığı görülmüştür. Ülkemizin yüz yüze kaldığı ciddi bir sorun olan göç ve göçmenlerin sağlık ihtiyaçları, nüfusun yaşlanması ve buna eşlik eden sağlık sorunları, kronik hastalıklarla mücadele ve benzeri sorunların çözümünde rol alacak nitelikli sağlık insan gücünün yetiştirilmesinde etkin ve kalıcı bir çözüm olarak toplum temelli eğitim programlarının gündeme alınması zorunlu hale gelmektedir. Derlemenin temel amacı, toplumun ihtiyaçlarına uygun nitelikte hemşire yetiştirmek için toplum temelli hemşirelik eğitim programlarının önemini ve programın temel özelliklerini açıklamaktır. Derlemede, toplum temelli eğitim kavramı, toplum temelli hemşirelik eğitimi programı uygulamaları, programın güçlü yönleri ve yaşanan güçlükler, toplum temelli eğitim programı hazırlanırken dikkat edilmesi gereken temel ilkeler incelenmiştir.

Two action research projects of the Community-Based Master of Education program at the University of Regina are featured with particular attention given to a developmental progression that takes place through a series of action research cycles, involving a significant shift from a classroom-based to a community-based teaching practice. In taking an Indigenous perspective on community-based education, this study draws upon Jo-Ann Archibald’s (Q’um Q’um Xiiem) (2008) Indigenous Storywork: Educating the Heart, Mind, Body, and Spirit. As an Indigenous approach to life and learning, Archibald’s work offers an insightful perspective on community-based education that is of value to educators with an interest in community development and its potential for schools. In closing, the prospect of educational action research as part of a community-based teaching practice is considered.Keywords: community-based education program; Indigenous storywork; action research

Children With Hearing Loss

The critical need to identify children with hearing loss and provide treatment at the earliest possible age has become increasingly apparent in recent years (Northern & Downs, 1978). Reduction of the auditory signal during the critical language-learning period can severely limit the child's potential for developing a complete, effective communication system. Identification and treatment of children having handicapping conditions at an early age has gained impetus through the Handicapped Children's Early Education Program (HCEEP) projects funded by the Bureau of Education for the Handicapped (BEH).

Special service administration, namely providing special services or a business that is not directly related to the teaching and learning process in the classroom. But specifically given by schools to students so that they are more optimal in implementing the learning process.
