Having both parents in the home can affect a child mentally and academically. The theoretical framework that helped to develop this literature review was based on the ecological theory by Bronfenbrenner. The ecological theory focused on child development. Therefore, Bronfenbrenner scope was based on a complex system of relationships. Parental involvement is an ongoing problem across our public learning institutions. I offer positive recommendations to public and secondary schools to reduce the lack of parental involvement. These recommendations were offered from a leadership perspective. The author examined literature related to the research problem. Additionally, the lack of parental involvement is discussed at length, particularly how the lack of parental involvement affects students in the process. The lack of parental involvement and support becomes tedious during student learning process and academic achievement. Factors associated with the parent’s lack of involvement were discussed.

The purpose of the study was to explore how online recipients of the Child Development Associate credential developed practical expertise in early childhood education without the benefit of an apprenticeship. Learning the practice of teaching from qualified “more knowledgeable others” through an apprenticeship is a feature of teacher preparation in public-school contexts yet missing in preparation for childcare teachers. Vygotsky’s Social Construction of Knowledge formed the conceptual framework of the study. The research question addressed the application of content knowledge and identification of problems in classroom situations. Ten center-based childcare teachers who earned a Child Development Associate credential online were interviewed. Data was analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed Child Development Associate credential recipient-teachers had little opportunity for observation by others in teaching contexts, relying primarily on trial and error and self-initiated actions to gain teaching practical expertise. Findings from this research demonstrates the need for early childhood professional apprenticeship experiences that might contribute to better teaching and improved outcomes for young children.

Motivational profiles comprising concepts of intrinsic and extrinsic factors and employee preferences towards transformational or transactional leadership styles were examined. Seventeen Millennials who have entered the workforce in the Western United States participated in a screening questionnaire and interview process designed answer research questions 1) How do Millennials in the Western United States describe their motivational profile once they have entered the workforce? and 2) How do Millennials who have entered the workforce in the Western United States describe their preferred leadership style? A thematic analysis revealed that intrinsic and extrinsic motivation are significant predictors of transformational and transactional leadership style preferences. Findings provide merit in both academic and organizational sectors. The findings contribute empirical evidence and practical value. Thus, these results can influence more informed leadership decisions to recruit, retain, and motivate Millennials in the workforce.

Sadly, Covid-19 took a greater toll on African Americans. As Covid-19 developed, medical professionals, health care authorities, and advocates recognized several day-to-day living situations and intrinsic medical conditions that distressed African Americans with higher mortality rates during the pandemic. It is imperative that healthcare leaders understand the ramifications that have occurred and that may continue to surface from the Covid-19 affliction, which could be utilized to adjust and amend current policy surrounding the adversely affected African American population. We explored several substantial questions regarding this pandemic: the perceived reasons for the vast impact of Covid-19 within the African American culture; and what recommendations are needed to aid healthcare leaders in the fight against Covid-19 within the African American community. There are six ramifications that the authors address in this general article, including- employment, poverty, deaths, mental illness, and distrust. We offer suggestions to implement, prevent, and educate the African American public to circumvent these ramifications for present and future pandemics.","PeriodicalId":215655,"journal":{"name":"Scholar Chatter","volume":"882 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122567869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Xander church, workers' commitment is shallow, as reflected in attendance and service. A cross-sectional design was used to study 38workers using nonprobability purposive sampling. The hypotheses were: H1 Is there a statistically significant relationship between servant leader behaviors and workers' commitment? H2: Is there a statistically significant relationship between the servant leadership behavior of empowerment and church workers' reported commitment due to the length of stay? The eight dimensions servant leadership survey instrument measured servant leadership, while workers' commitment was measured with the 15-item Organizational Commitment Questionnaire. The data were analyzed with Spearman’s Rho correlation because of a small sample size. The results revealed that servant leadership predicted commitment, and the servant leadership survey element, behavior empowerment, was not predicted by the worker's length of stay. I recommend that further research be conducted to ascertain reasons for a low commitment since servant leadership behavior impacted commitment.

The purpose of this article was to explore the experiences of people of color regarding the challenges they face involving the use of spiritual intelligence in the workplace. Gardner’s multiple intelligence theory served as the foundation for this article. The key research question focused on the perceptions of people of color working in nonprofit educational institutions regarding the role that spiritual intelligence played in their workplaces and career successes. Targeted research included face-to-face interviews with 10 participants older than 18 years old. Two findings revealed spiritual intelligence was viewed as an indirect tool used for career success and there are opportunities for human resources to promote spiritual intelligence to create a sustainable work environment to increase performance. I concluded that the results are useful for human resource management to implement programs for their employees to understand and apply their spiritual intelligence in the workplace environment.
