afe: A Pathfinder

This is a computer-generated pathfinder created against the Distant Reader study called afe.

Each Distant Reader study carrel is composed of many individual items. Each item is bibliographically described with author, title, date, summary, and keyword values. Below is a list of the items' most signficant keywords as well as lists of the items themselves. Purpusing the content of this pathfinder provides the student, researcher, or scholar with one way to get their heads around the scope of the carrel. The keywords include:

Students; School; Children; Learning; Teacher; Teaching; Schools; Justice; County; Program; Circle; Practices; Assessment; Hunt; Sanchez; Que; Suesue; Grier; Fleisher; Advising; Life; Hope; Binary; Power

Depending on how this pathfinder was created, many of the bibliographic sections will include elaborations on the meaning(s) of the given keywords. These elaborations were generated by feeding the items' summaries to a large langauge model and asking the model to address the question, "What is X?", where "X" is the keyword. The result will be a few sentences of elaboration. Be forewarned. The elaborations are often plausible, but they should not be take as truth. Instead, they should be taken as points for consideration.

• Why Vouchers Aren't Good for the (Re)Public by Itkonen, Tiina (2017) - Arguments in favor of vouchers claim that they promote parental school choice, allow for competition that improves public schools, or that private school education is simply superior (e.g., Suarez, 1998). Public schools then are pillars of democracy. Keywords: education; good; program; public; school; students; vouchers
• Uninformed Attacks on Public Education Have Increased by Weis, W. (2017) - This suggests that public official’s disparagement of public schools have created an image of failing schools that does not reflect the experiences of the majority of those who have regular contact with local public schools. The Success of Public Schools The truth, as supported by data and research, is that public schools are successful and continue to accomplish excellent outcomes even with changing demographics of students.

• “Private and Prestigious” Does Not Necessarily Equal Perfect Fit by Hoffman, Jaimie; Garcia, Julissa (2017) - Defining public and private The main difference between private and public universities is how they are funded; public universities are created and funded by state governments whereas private universities are established and funded by people not in government. For the rest of this article when we discuss private universities, we are referring to non-profit only because we believe for-profit institutions should be considered separately. Keywords: fit; students; universities; university
• Your Hand's Not Raised? Too Bad: I'm Calling on You Anyway" by Kohn, Alfie (2018) - And of course that old chestnut: I suffered through it; why shouldn’t they?[2] Children in school are rarely questioned with such ferocity, but similar moral and pedagogical concerns arise — with particular urgency, in fact, precisely because they are younger: Should teachers call on students who haven’t indicated they want to talk and, in fact, have tacitly indicated they don’t want to talk? I recently suggested on Twitter that this practice — “cold-calling” — is so fundamentally disrespectful of students that I’d be disinclined to take advice about anything from someone who endorsed it. Keywords: calling; kohn; students; teacher
• Ethnic Studies and Good Teaching: A Research Summary by Jewett, Michelle (2018) - However, Ethnic Studies can be traced as far back as the 1900's when educator and historian W.E.B. Dubois argued for the teaching of Black history in U.S. schools (Anderson, 2016). In higher education, Ethnic Studies began in 1968 after grassroots organizing and student demand sparked programs at San Francisco State University, UC Berkley, and UC Santa Barbara (Hu-Dehart, 1993). Keywords: district; education; research; schools; students; studies
• Risk Taking in Education: A Growth Experience by Drescher, Talya (2018) - Students reported being scared of interacting with George and to be honest, I was filled with worry about all the things that could go wrong: the technology not working as expected, students refusing to participate, and my own ability to integrate teaching with the tool. We were of the belief that these two groups of future teachers should learn, share and collaborate with each other as they work toward earning their professional credential so that once in Risk Taking in Education: A Growth Experience Talya Drescher Allies for Education 2018, 1, 2 https://journals.library.csuci.edu/ojs/index.php/afe the field, these skills would be practiced rather than new.

Keywords: school; students; teacher
• Culturally Relevant Programming for Spanish Speaking Families by Fernandez, Adriana (2018) - While Latino parents make it a point to be involved in their student’s educational lives, much of their involvement falls outside traditional understandings of what parental “involvement” typically looks like (Lopez, 2001). College knowledge: What Latino parents need to know and why they don’t know it. Keywords: college; education; families; parents; students

• The Education Commodity Proposition: Getting to the Root by Stein, Zachary (2019) - These are just a few examples of differences in educational value that easily and regularly escape measurement and therefore are not included in the official calculation of what a curriculum is “worth.” Of course, there are countless undetected forms of educational value provided by teachers that are not factored into such calculations, such as their ability to foster independent thinking, deal with interpersonal struggles, or bring hope and humor into the lives of their students. Keywords: commodity; commodity proposition; education; education commodity; labor; proposition; students; value
• Standardized Tests and Their Impact on Students and Learning by Jones, Dale (2019) - The resulting acceleration is truly unfair to many students who can’t keep up, and teaching is reduced to test preparation, with little time for reteaching, and no time to allow students to explore their passions and questions. Combine the secrecy, security measures, the timing towards the end of the school year, and of course the weeks-long length of CAASPP testing and the message to students that this is the most important thing they’ll do this year is undeniable. Keywords: learning; students
• Making Assessment Equitable for Learners on an Alternate Curriculum by Smith, Jolan (2019) - For teachers like Ms. Hernandez who support students on an Alternate Curriculum, the way to ensure equitable and just assessments that promote student growth is to become knowledgeable of proper assessment procedures. For students on Alternate Curriculum, the field needs assessment practices that are comprehensive, on-going, formative, and carefully selected to identify student growth and strengths.

• Preparing Teacher Candidates for Diverse Learners: Are We Doing Enough? by Spence, Melissa; Wesley, Tymika (2019) - Many first-year teachers enter the field feeling underprepared to handle the level of skill and expertise required to effectively instruct diverse students (Delpit, 2006; Paris, 2012). Candidates must observe and interact with culturally responsive teachers and classrooms with diverse students to practice designing culturally responsive instruction (Kea & Trent, 2013).

• Gender Identity Awareness and Inclusion: Developing and Implementing a K-5 Lesson Plan Trajectory to Support All Students by Baxter, Holly; Drescher, Talya; Ballesteros-Sola, Maria (2020) - Due to the possibility of negative outcomes after self-identification, it is difficult to determine exact numbers of gender nonconforming students or families in the district, however the wide variety of gender expression in OPUSD students merited acknowledgement and acceptance. Gender Identity Awareness and Inclusion—Developing and Implementing a K-5 Lesson Plan Trajectory to Support All Students Holly Baxter; Talya Drescher Allies for Education 2020, 3, 1 https://journals.library.csuci.edu/ojs/index.php/afe OPUSD began considering the need for an elementary level gender diversity lesson plan in Fall, 2018 in response to ongoing concerns for the support and well-being of gender nonconforming students in the elementary school setting.

• The Fallacy of Approaching Education Reform through a Singular Lens by Helmstedter, Russell (2020) - Students were able to take two math courses each year, therefore, allowing students who fail multiple courses the chance to still reach calculus by senior year. Since it is teachers who limit the potential of students in lower track classes, which are disproportionately filled with poor students and students of color, by not offering the same engaging curriculum as students in the high-level tracks, schools should get rid of tracking.

• Ethnic Studies and the Enduring Legacy of Movements for Racial Justice in California by Centino, Nicholas (2021) - Despite the positive success of Ethnic Studies classes nationwide, a 2014 study examining the implementation of Ethnic Studies in the San Francisco school district found persistent impediments and opposition to Ethnic Studies in public education but also provided key practices to adequately prepare teachers to offer Ethnic Studies curriculum (Tintiangco-Cubales, 2014).

Keywords: education; english; language; school
• OUHSD: Turning the Vision of Post-Secondary Options for Every Student into a Reality by DeLeon, Penelope (2018) - That being said, it must also be strongly noted that all of the districts which have already aligned their graduation requirements did so over a ten-year or longer planning and implementation process, which included multiple revisions, versions and ultimately tiered graduation requirements – which give alternate options to students who struggle to meet the A-G requirements. This is not a process that happens overnight, because when the graduation requirements change without a thoroughly vetted plan for the academic, social and emotional supports to ensure students meet the more rigorous set of requirements, the graduation rate plummets, and the community suffers.

One initial strategy toward this end was to emphasize and invest in early childhood education, resulting in two realities that would be hard to imagine for American parents: In Finland, the cost of private day care is reimbursed, and there is publicly financed support for all types of childcare (Hiilamo, 2002; Anttonen, 1999).
