This article examines one mentor’s experiences with 80+ PhD students over an extended period of time using these conceptual lenses. Three general principles or “mind-sets” that serve as an overall guide to the process. First, mentors need to take cognizance of their strengths and weaknesses as scholars and potential mentors. Second, mentors need to recognize that students vary in skills, personality and responsiveness; and these factors need to be considered in successful mentor relationships. Third, humility is valuable since not everything will work every time. Mentoring is a process where adjustments need to be continually made as the student, the mentor, and their relationship evolves. Ten specific tools are discussed in relation to these mind-sets.","PeriodicalId":46422,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF PUBLIC AFFAIRS EDUCATION","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2022-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41491844","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}

{"title":"Answering the call: Offering and analyzing civil discourse opportunities in undergraduate public affairs education","authors":"P. Barnes, M. Morris, Andrea L. Pierce, T.

In this paper, we conduct a curriculum scan to evaluate the extent to which public affairs programs have answered these calls at the undergraduate level. The findings indicate that civil discourse-themed courses are essentially absent in the largest undergraduate public affairs programs, leaving the calls woefully unanswered. Then, analyzing students’ pre-post survey responses from a new course that offered content on the intersection of civil discourse and public policy making, we find that a civil discourse-themed course can simultaneously answer the calls and ensure that students meet the objectives of baccalaureate public affairs education recommended by the National Association of Schools of Public Affairs and Administration. The results are encouraging for public affairs education and democratic governance alike.","PeriodicalId":46422,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF PUBLIC AFFAIRS EDUCATION","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2022-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47461489","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}

All three of us – Susan, RaJade and myself – are blessed to be working with highly competent and adroit staff at NASPAA, most notably Dr. Angel Wright-Lanier, the association’s executive director. I also want to give a special shout out to Ja’Nell Henry, NASPAA’s event manager, who has orchestrated a remarkable return to in-person community through this year’s conference. Ja’Nell and our three university co-hosts have delivered a fantastic conference here in Chicago. Another behind-the-scenes team to thank is the program committee, led by Dr. Brandi Blesset and Dr. Sean McCandless, who have served up an engaging program of panels, plenaries and section meetings. As we bring this year’s conference to a close, we now look ahead.

But what does it take to implement such policy? In public administration education discourse, developing nations do not receive as much attention in mainstream outlets. The article extends the discourse by exploring and connecting public sector work force policy to public administration education and public service training in Ghana. After reviewing literature and analyzing MPA/MPP curricula there, it discusses learning outcomes and assesses the quality of competence, while extrapolating lessons learned. The article concludes by proposing a critical pedagogy-inspired curriculum that integrates social equity and blends unique domestic need with global concerns.","PeriodicalId":46422,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF PUBLIC AFFAIRS EDUCATION","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2022-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41702697","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}

{"title":"Introduction to the symposium on international and comparative public administration education","authors":"William Hatcher, Bruce D. McDonald","doi":"10.1080/15236803.2022.2145051","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/15236803.2022.2145051","url":null,"abstract":"We live in a global society. Our countries may maintain their own borders and bureaucratic structures, but the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and the problems that arouse out of it have highlighted the intermingled relationship we have with all parts of the globe (McDonald et al., 2022). The interconnectedness of the globe can even be seen from our own experience as co-editors-in-chief of the Journal of Public Affairs Education. In the early days of the pandemic, printing of the journal was temporarily halted as our publisher had challenges getting access to paper from its distributor in one country, trouble shipping the paper to its printer in another, and finally delivering the hardcopies to the United States. Although this example focuses on JPAE, we are not alone. What happens in one country impacts and effects those around it. But what does this mean for public affairs education? From our standpoint, we believe that it means we should be preparing our students to engage in an international arena. Over the past five years we have sought to use our role as co-editors-in-chief to shape the discussion around what we should teach and how we should teach students in public administration programs. While we have seen the importance of an improved understanding of international and comparative public administration arise, we have not seen the field react as we would hope. Currently, only about a fifth of programs accredited by the Network of Schools of Public Policy, Affairs, and Administration (NASPAA) have a course offering in this area for their students (Manoharan et al., 2022). We believe that this is nowhere near high enough. After all, if you think that the public administration programs of the United States do not need more focus on international and comparative public administration, you might consider taking a second look at who your students are. A growing demographic within all MPA programs in the United States is that of international student, many of whom intend to return to their countries and become public servants after graduation. Even if the courses had little meaning for students staying in country after graduation, do we not have a responsibility for training those students who will go out afterwards? Our intent with this symposium to start broaching the issue in a more public setting. When planning the symposium, we invited authors to explore all facets and corners of the international and comparative world and its relevancy for public administration. The result is the collection of six papers that are presented to you here. Each article takes its own view of topic, ranging from explorations of what we should teach students and why to the challenges that our international counterparts face with their own teaching and research. We are excited to be able to publish six new pieces of research, but we also believe that these pieces of research are just a beginning. More work is needed, we know this, but we hope that","PeriodicalId":46422,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF PUBLIC AFFAIRS EDUCATION","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2022-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42299274","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}
