2021 KEYNOTE SPEAKERS


  

A Developmental Approach for Infusing Career-Related Issues in An Undergraduate Psychology Curriculum: COVID-19 Impacts on Student Learning

Lori Simons & Sara Schoneman
Widener University, PA, US


Educators propose that career issues should be embedded in psychology courses throughout the curricula, specifically addressed in professional development seminars, and explored in capstone courses as best practices for assisting undergraduate students transition to the workforce (Halonen & Dunn, 2018). The practicum/internship program is a developmental-sequential model that exposes students to career issues in beginning, middle, and ending psychology courses. A total of 306 students participated in a practicum/internship (P/I) program. Of these students, 37 of them were immersed in fieldwork during the outbreak of the pandemic. COVID-19 created new learning opportunities. Students shifted from in-person to telehealth and other online activities at their placement sites. An explanatory mixed-methods research design was used to detect student learning outcomes from the beginning to the end of the P/I program. This cohort of students did not make improvements in student learning outcomes, but they did acquire confidence and other types of soft skills by the end of the program. In contrast, student learning outcomes were detected for the aggregate sample of students. Students made improvements in their racial-cultural identity development, racial, cultural, and social justice attitudes, and problem-solving, civic responsibility, and community engagement skills from the beginning to the end of the program. Retention and employment outcomes further suggest that students remain at the university after being exposed to career issues in beginning and obtain gainful employment in ending psychology courses. Implications for infusing career issues in beginning, middle, and ending courses in an undergraduate psychology curriculum are discussed.

 

Exclusion - Integration – Inclusion – What is the difference?

Ann-Katrin Swärd, 
Ph.D. in Special Education, Ass. Prof.
University of Gothenburg, Sweden

 


Often, we talk about exclusion, integration, and inclusion in relation to preschool and school. These concepts can also be seen in relation to society, from childhood to adulthood. What is the definition of these concepts and how are they used? Giving birth to a child is naturally connected to having one healthy child with typical development. Sometimes life takes another way and the child is born with some sort of disability. Sometimes the child seems to have a typical development but after some year the parent or teacher in preschool/school discover that the child has some difficulties and develops in another way. No matter when the child´s difficulties will be discovered there are of course different reactions in relation to parents' understanding, background, and feelings. But also, to other people’s reactions, like siblings, grandparents, friends, and colleagues.

Their reaction can be like sympathy, they feel sad for you. Or it can be more of empathy, try to understand and being more engaged in the situation for the parents. This can be the same with teachers in preschool or school. The more they have of empathy the more engaged and interesting they might be. Only showing sympathy, feeling sad for the child can be obstacle for development and learning but also help the child to feel what we called “learned helplessness”. Every child needs to feel that you believe in his or her possibility to learn and develop.

In this presentation, I will try to define exclusion, integration and, inclusion from different perspectives and also in different context.



 

 

Adapting to the Ubiquitous Learning During the Pandemic

Fezile Özdamlı, Prof. Dr.

“The Only Thing That Is Constant Is Change”

Heraclitus

When we look at the change in information technologies, the development started with the abacus and moved towards mixed reality. Nowadays, laptops and tablets are used widely because of the pandemic. Individuals around the world continue to be significantly affected by the ongoing coronavirus. Projects were postponed; workplaces and educational institutions were closed for a long time. In this perspective, the availability of online learning platforms currently in use is an important consideration, primarily due to the absence of physical classes.  E-Learning is learning or teaching based on digital tools and technology rather than printed material and classroom teaching.

With the traditional approach, students were learning in classes where they were quite passive. However, today, learning environments are supported by active learning. In the traditional approach, students were learning by listening, but today in ubiquitous learning, students learn by doing and living. Ubiquitous learning can be defined as an everyday learning environment supported by mobile and embedded computers and wireless networks in our everyday lives. It is aimed to provide learners with content and interaction anytime and anywhere. During the pandemic period, the usage rate of mobile devices in education has increased extraordinarily.

In this speech, I would like to discuss with you what digital materials are and how they can be used to adapt to the ubiquitous learning process.
