Available from: St. Catherine University

Abstract/Notes: This action research aimed to determine if an equity audit of the Montessori social studies curriculum and learning about the researcher’s culture impacted professional self-efficacy and resilience. This six-week intervention and study was a self-study through daily regimented activities. Three weeks were used to learn more about the researcher’s own culture and history. Three additional weeks were dedicated to the equity audit process, where the researcher revised original lessons or created new, culturally sustaining lessons to augment the curriculum. The data collected was completed daily using four tools: an attitude scale, a guided questionnaire, a reflective journal, and finally during the three-week audit period, a curriculum audit checklist. The data suggested strong levels of self-efficacy and resilience across the intervention, though resilience wavered and lowered throughout due to its taxing nature. Additional supports and research can better support educators of color prepare for altering and implementing a culturally sustaining and anti-bias, antiracist Montessori social studies curriculum.

Abstract/Notes: In this study, we examined communication in the family and peer systems in relation to children's sociometric status. Codes measured turn-taking skills and utterance types for 43 children (ages 24-60 months) with mothers, fathers, and peers. Communication differences in the family and peer systems were strongest for popular versus rejected status children and their parents, but differences were also found for controversial and neglected status children and their parents. Rejected status children demonstrated turn-taking styles that included irrelevant turns, interruptions, simultaneous talking, and noncontingent responding. Parents of rejected children used higher proportions of requests than parents of popular children but failed to allow their children time to respond to the requests. Popular status children were more likely to alternate turns, provide explanations to peers, and participate in episodes of cohesive discourse. Interaction patterns were examined for potential mechanisms of transfer between family and peer systems.

La población de estudio estuvo constituida por 26 estudiantes entre niños y niñas de 4 años de la Institución Educativa 021 San Benito de Palermo, ubicado en el Cercado de Lima, la muestra fue censal ya que se tomó toda la población de estudio, a los cuales se aplicaron la Ficha de Observación de hábitos sociales y la lista de cotejo para medir el instrumento de clima social. Se utilizaron los coeficientes estadísticos, Shapiro Wilk y Wilcoxon y se observan diferencias; empleando la prueba de Rangos Asignados de Wilcoxon, se observa en los valores que se tiene 21 rangos positivos, 3 rangos negativos y 2 empates; lo que quiere decir que, 21 niños lograron presentar puntuaciones por encima del pre test, 3 niños no lo lograron y 2 se quedaron en el mismo nivel, en cuanto a clima social en el aula; así mismo con respecto al zc se encuentra por debajo de -1,96 indica zc < - 1,96 y el valor del nivel de significación p=0,000 menor al α 0,05 indicando rechazar la hipótesis nula.
