This book was released on 2020-02-17 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book celebrates the contributions of John Weidman and his colleagues to the understanding of student socialization in higher education. It includes innovative chapters reflecting new approaches to higher education student socialization with respect to students of color, gender, STEM, and students in higher education systems outside the USA. Specifically, the book examines socialization between and within in a range of groups, including national, international and minority students, parents, doctoral students, early career faculty, and scholarly practitioners. The book assesses methodological approaches and suggests directions for reformulating theory and practice. Using sociological perspectives to address issues and concerns at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, the book gives renewed life to the college impact literature. It includes revisions and expansions of the original Weidman frameworks based on the synthesis of existing research with new work reflecting unique perspectives by a variety of authors. John Weidman has been an indisputable force in the study and understanding of student socialization in higher education. This new book by Weidman and his coeditor, Linda DeAngelo, represents an undeniably significant and welcomed expansion of the original “Weidman model” of student socialization. In updating and revising the original model, chapter authors give attention to various contemporary issues such as student diversity, gender differences, early career experiences, and internationalism. Whether one samples only some of the articles that constitute this book or reads all of them, the professional payoff will be substantial. Kenneth A. Feldman, Professor of Sociology, Stony Brook University John Weidman has made a number of groundbreaking contributions to our understanding of student socialization in postsecondary education. This book, edited with Linda DeAngelo, brings together a group of fine scholars whose contributions will push our understanding even further. It is a significant addition to the college impact literature. Ernest T. Pascarella, Petersen Chair in Higher Education, University of Iowa

Download or read book The Role of Professional Socialization in Specialty Choice Among Higher Education Students written by Evan Wayde Faidley and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interpretive qualitative study examined how professional socialization experiences shape the student affairs specialty choice of higher education and student affairs (HESA) master's-level students. This research utilized Perez's (2014) conceptual model to comprehend participants' socialization, sensemaking, and self-authorship as they reflect on HESA contemporary skills and values and their influence on preferred functional area for their first full time position. Data were collected from 13 participants enrolled in a HESA graduate preparation program at a Midwestern university through a sequence of document analyses and virtual, semi structured interviews. Findings of this study showed that participants deemed navigating HESA interpersonal dynamics; understanding logistics and planning to ensure quality and intentional work; and developing and using research and resources to be essential skills. Holistic college student development-tiered at academic-, human-, and identity-based needs-social justice and inclusion, synergistic supervision, and work-life wellness emerged as contemporary values of HESA work. Participants identified their preferred functional area (student affairs specialization) in relation to their experiences under a HESA mentor/role model, sharing social identities with students whom they serve, and their exposure to different student-facing and non student-facing career opportunities. This study holds important implications for future HESA graduate students in terms of how they (a) engage in the career decision-making process throughout their coursework and fieldwork, (b) build their professional competencies, and (c) make their specialty choice. For faculty and fieldwork supervisors alike, considerations for student/supervisee experience redesigns and future research to bridge the gap between student affairs and specialty choice research are provided.

Download or read book Becoming Socialized in Student Affairs Administration written by Ashley Tull and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-03 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effective socialization of new student affairs professionals is essential—both for the individual success of these practitioners, and for the work of a college or university that promotes student learning. It enables new professionals to manage the important personal and professional transitions they experience throughout their careers, engage in continuous professional development, and achieve high levels of productivity. It also counteracts the high attrition rate among new hires, with all the attendant costs to the institution in terms of resources spent on recruiting, hiring, training, supervising, and developing staff talent.The socialization process for new professionals includes formal and informal elements that influence both success and quality of work life. This process is far more complex than a single orientation program organized by a unit or division. Rather, it is a comprehensive process where both the new professional and organization learn about and from each other in ways that influence working relationships and individual and organizational outcomes.Part I of this book defines the concept, explains its value, and offers a model of socialization. Part II examines the institutional context in which the socialization of new professionals occurs, and describes how different institutional types influence the socialization process. It considers the changing characteristics of college students, and how these impact the work of student affairs.In addressing the extra-institutional and professional contexts, Part III considers the role that graduate education plays in preparing new professionals for work in student affairs, and offers guidance to faculty and practitioners involved in graduate education about what they can do to introduce graduate students to professional life. It addresses the importance of professional orientation activities, the roles of supervision and mentorship, as well as the impact of peers and institutions on the socialization process. It concludes with a discussion of the role and importance of professional associations.This book is intended for graduate program faculty, for senior student affairs officers concerned about developing and retaining the new staff, and for administrators and leaders in student affairs shaping the future of the profession. For new professionals themselves it offers insights on the path to professionalization.

Download or read book Critiques for Transformation written by Lorenzo DuBois Baber and published by IAP. This book was released on 2023-04-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To sustain contemporary movements towards educational equity, postsecondary leaders at all levels need resources that connect evidence-based critiques of structural inequities to forward-thinking visions for a more socially-just academy. To address this critical challenge, we bring together scholars to deconstruct oppressive norms of theory and practice and provide a direction towards reconsiderations across various postsecondary contexts. Each chapter identifies a normative practice that reinforces material and cultural oppression of student populations from minoritized identities, challenge underlying assumptions that support current norms, and make recommendations for redeveloping practices that center the well-being and success of underserved student populations. In presenting a range of expertise and disciplinary foci in the study of higher education, this volume contributes to a holistic re-envisioning of colleges and universities as transformational spaces for social change. The book provides insights and recommendations from scholars to a wide-ranging audience, including federal and state policymakers, postsecondary administrators and leaders, philanthropists, researchers, and graduate students. The primary audience are graduate students enrolled in various educational leadership programs including educational policy studies, higher education, student affairs, curriculum and instruction, or learning sciences. This book will be especially valuable for increasing the focus on generative critique in research, practice, and policy in graduate programming curriculum. This volume will also be a valuable resource for policymakers involved in shaping postsecondary initiatives at the local, state, and federal levels. Finally, this book will appeal to current practitioners at colleges, and universities as they seek additional professional development and cross-institutional collegiality around practices related to social justice and equity. ENDORSEMENTS: "This book opens with an account of Ronald Reagan’s draconian policies and practices to silence political dissenters and demonstrators within the University of California. Horrifyingly, we now have politically ambitious governors using Reaganesque tactics to shut down critical race theory, the teaching of authentic Black history, the use of terms like Latinx. Critiques For Transformation: Reimagining Colleges & Communities For Social Justice is the essential antidote to the antidemocratic Orwellian practices that are bent on disempowering advocates for racial justice." — Estela Bensimon. University of Southern California "Critiques for Transformation: Reimaging Colleges and Universities for Social Justice provide impressive examinations and posit modes to envision “reimagining” ways for universities to move toward authentic diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). The senior, mid-career, and emerging professionals tackle DEI from a variety of conceptual frameworks that contribute to rich discussions of challenges and opportunities. By examining some classic writings from education and social sciences, the chapters elucidate how contemporary scholarly activities and research can be linked to the integrative roles of public engagement for both internal university communities and external audiences. The volume will be quite helpful to a range of constituents within the United States, i.e., a nation that has some of the most diverse structures and systems of colleges and universities." — Beverly Lindsay, Pennsylvania State University "To offer a scholarly critique is often uneven with little attention dedicated to altering the most troubling patterns, in this case, in higher education. This book brings rigorous critique but also engages in world-building, taking up what we can do today to make higher education break with its exclusionary and profit-seeking ways. Every chapter focuses on a particular facet of higher education and carefully imagines it as a space for possibility rather than arbitrary rules for the sake of hierarchy. As higher education wrings its hands about its place in the pandemic, this book is the guide." — Leigh Patel, University of Pittsburgh

Download or read book Narratives of TESOL Professionals written by Hayriye Kayi-Aydar and published by IAP. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through insiders’ perspectives and narratives, this edited collection provides insight into the lived experiences of recent graduates of various English Applied Linguistics and/or TESOL doctoral programs in North America. The authors document how their personal and professional identities intersected during their doctoral studies and how these doctoral programs, as learning environments, supported them in their professional development and dissertation research. As such, their insider perspectives and narratives are of special value to those contemplating pursuing such a program, or are in progress towards their own degree, as well as the faculty members who advise and support these doctoral students. Chapters focus on topics immediately relevant to success and persistence in a doctoral program, such as developing a network of mentors, establishing a work-life balance, and professional socialization, among others. All authors are recent graduates of their programs who have been intentionally selected for their recent memories in navigating the process. At a time when doctoral program persistence declines at the intersection of students’ gender and racial background (see Okahana & Zhou, 2019) there is a pressing need to share the insights and lived experiences of those less commonly featured in narratives of the successful doctoral scholar. This need is especially true among TESOL professionals who will teach and learn in diverse, global settings throughout their careers following their graduation. This book contributes to that need, and it is an essential resource for scholars in TESOL/English Applied Linguistics and other similar doctoral programs.

Book excerpt: Living at the Intersections: Social Identities and Black Collegians brings together 21 diverse authors from 14 different institutions, including our nation’s most prestigious public and private universities, to advance the use of intersectionality and intersectional approaches in studying Black students in higher education. Chapters cover a diversity of topics, ranging from spirituality to sexuality and masculinity, from Black students at HBCUs to those in STEM majors, and a host of issues related to race, class, gender, and other identities. Authors draw upon a wealth of data including national surveys, interviews, focus groups, narratives, and even historical research. A smooth blend of anthropology, historiography, psychology, sociology, and intersectional approaches from multiple disciplines, this book breaks new ground on the “who, what, when, where, and how” of intersectionality applied to social problems affecting Black collegians. The authors go beyond merely stating the importance of intersectionality in research, but they also provide countless examples, recommended strategies, and tools for doing so. This book is an important resource for higher education and student affairs professionals, scholars, and graduate students interested in intersectionality and Black collegians.
