Although freedom of speech and assembly rights have been essential in uplifting and empowering marginalized communities throughout history, it is important to name the existence of speech that seeks to expand rights and speech which aims to restrict rights. Hate speech occurrences have increased dramatically since 2016 and many scholars cite college campuses as a specialized place for hate and social movements. Despite this increase in incidents and scholarly attention focused on on-campus hate speech, there is a gap in knowledge regarding those staff members who oversee hate speech incidents as people of color, especially those who work in community colleges. Utilizing a Critical Race Study lens, this study explored how student affairs professionals of color in California community college settings experience and navigate hate speech and White supremacy. Through eight collective counter-narratives, educators provided insight into White supremacy incidents on campus and the biased federal policy that affects their day-to-day work with students. Their collective stories re-imagine the post-pandemic community college what it means to be safe in community colleges through the twin pandemics and how the community college campus as a whole can come together to challenge White supremacy and support highly vulnerable and marginalized community college students. Their exploration of experiences also paints a picture of coalitions that must be built and sustained within the community. And finally, this study provides insight into the navigation and radical re-imagining of hate speech education and healing together as community colleges reopen during the COVID-19 pandemic and escalation of racial injustice.","PeriodicalId":46285,"journal":{"name":"Educational Studies-AESA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42563739","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}

We were the recipients of smallpox blankets used as biological warfare in 1763 issued by Lord Jeffrey Amherst, the commanding general of British forces, as retribution for Odawa leader Pontiac’s battles to protect our homelands from the British. According to our elders, intentional biological warfare was actually wielded against the Odawas on at least two occasions, which reduced our nation from thousands to hundreds, with few left to bury our dead. Rather, the bodies had to be burned in a place that is still held sacred by Odawas today. Until COVID-19, I had never heard these stories. The Odawas faced almost complete annihilation as a result of the insatiable greed of empire, but we have persevered only to now see our Mother Earth in critical planetary crisis. As a result of the destruction of ecosystems and habitat, humans are now experiencing similar sicknesses in the form of pandemics.

The research was designed using a qualitative model, and semi-structured interviews were used for data collection. The research group consisted of 26 teachers from primary and secondary schools. The data were analysed and interpreted according to themes. The results showed that some school principals with an autocratic leadership style used WhatsApp excessively and inappropriately, putting unnecessary pressure on their subordinates. Overall, the study highlights the importance of considering the impact of instant messaging on teachers when using WhatsApp in schools. The findings provide valuable insight into the influences of instant messaging on professional and personal lives and suggest a balance between the two to avoid detrimental effects on teachers’ well-being.","PeriodicalId":46285,"journal":{"name":"Educational Studies-AESA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49501234","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}

This study thus examined the extent to which the influence of teachers relative to the principal in school decision-making predicts teachers’ job attitudes, i.e. job satisfaction and professional commitment. By using the National Teacher and Principal Survey 2015–2016, nationally representative data from 19,450 teachers and 2,860 principals of public schools in the United States were analysed. The findings revealed the greater the relative influence of teachers, the more positive the association with teacher job satisfaction and professional commitment as job attitudes. The current study showed that the extent of teacher influence relative to that of the principal plays a critical role in social conditions within a school and can improve individual teachers’ job attitudes regarding school decision-making.","PeriodicalId":46285,"journal":{"name":"Educational Studies-AESA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46309582","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}

Data from Taiwanese eighth graders participating in the 2016 International Civic and Citizenship Education Study (ICCS) were examined. Citizenship behaviours were measured by items from the ICCS student questionnaire and the ICCS Asian Regional Module. The results showed that students who emphasised all but CM oriented citizenship had the weakest attitude towards the personal morality of politicians. Students who endorsed all citizenship behaviours had the highest levels of expected civic engagement. The findings suggest that the development of the good citizenship perceived by Taiwanese students may be enhanced by multiple sources in addition to citizenship education.","PeriodicalId":46285,"journal":{"name":"Educational Studies-AESA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41388188","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}

Most notably, there has been sustained attention given to students’ loss of learning and loss of social skills (with implications that this will lead to loss of revenue and a lost generation down the road). This neoliberal view of schooling, which is steeped in whiteness, has led to a narrow understanding of both these problems and their solutions. The solutions that are suggested, informed by whiteness and dominant culture, have significant consequences for all children, but especially BIPOC children. Specifically, there have been calls to focus classroom efforts on raising test scores and calls to add the teaching of social emotional learning skills. In this paper, we critique these moves and argue instead for a more expansive view of possibilities for schooling post-pandemic. Rather than framing this loss as a reason to focus on test scores and scripted curricula, we encourage educators to consider what children have gained and how we might reimagine more democratic, just, and liberatory schooling as a result. We highlight two pedagogical frameworks—community engaged teaching and restorative justice—as viable alternatives to a focus on academic learning loss and SEL.","PeriodicalId":46285,"journal":{"name":"Educational Studies-AESA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44627936","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 this paper, we respond to these crises with collaboration through the concept of interdependency. Using disability and transformative justice organizer Mia Mingus’s definition of interdependency, we argue that an interdependent classroom can be a way out of narratives of atomized disconnection. Interdependency sees an individual’s survival as inherently connected to a larger community, emphasizing solidarity over the illusion of independence. Inspired by duoethnographic methods, we share our own reflections as students and teachers in classrooms where connection may or may not have been present. We find that, though we cannot go back to “normal,” we can go forward into new classroom context where white supremacist ideologies do not shape students’ and teachers’ shared learning experiences. Instead, interdependence can serve as a form of creative resistance to the more implicit forms of harm embedded in educational experiences, opening up platforms to counter marginalization and speak against what has been traditionally silenced.","PeriodicalId":46285,"journal":{"name":"Educational Studies-AESA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46208820","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}
