Thanks to the efforts of former Dean Jim Cibulka and Mary Ann Vimont,director of public relations and student, alumni and community affairs, anew sculpture graces the area between Dickey Hall and Taylor EducationBuilding. Vimont secured funding from the Donovan Trust Fund andworked with Professor Gary Bibbs in the College of Fine Arts to find astudent who could provide the piece of art. Michael Martinez, a graduateof the College of Fine Arts, delivered “Exponential Symmetry” to theCollege in the spring.

“The College of Education is excitedto display Michael’s work, and we’reespecially proud that he is a formerUK student,” Vimont said. “Hiscreativity and vision have granted theCollege a lasting addition to our smallpart of campus.”

The cumulative knowledge of mankind is based on systems thatcatalog and quantify the world that surrounds us. With language, writingand mathematics, we can learn from one another and develop anunderstanding of experiences other than our own. These building blocksspawned the science and experimentation that give us an understandingof our planet and the environments we occupy today. We have studiednearly every aspect of nature – learning from it, replicating it and evenattempting to improve upon it. Often taken for granted, our ability torationalize the natural world into formulas, patterns, numbers and wordshas allowed us to develop into a complex civilization with amazingcapabilities and undiscovered potential.By referencing the form of a nautilus shell as a manifestation of the

rationality, “Exponential Symmetry” is meant to embody the above ideas.The natural architecture of the shell structure is a physical representationof the golden mean spiral or Fibonacci sequence. The box that containsthe growing spiral and establishes the perimeter of the form is a referenceto the sciences and their ability to provide a four-sided rationalunderstanding of the unknown. By placing things and ideas in a box andlabeling that box, we begin to develop a sense of organization andunderstanding of what lies before us. “Exponential Symmetry” is meant topay homage to humanity’s knowledge and nature’s functional beauty.


<< Jana Bouwma-Gearhart, Assistant Professor,Curriculum and InstructionBouwma-Gearhart’s proposal focuses on the

curriculum improvement of the secondaryscience teacher preparation programs(undergraduate and Master’s with InitialCertification [MIC]). To do this, she will develop anew course titled “The Nature of Sciencethrough Bluegrass and Tropical EcosystemFieldwork,” which will take students to CostaRica for field investigations intended to provideinstruction on how to create and implementinquiry-based curriculum for secondaryclassrooms and to solidify students’understanding of scientific inquiry.

<< Alan DeYoung, Professor, Educational PolicyStudies and EvaluationDeYoung will continue work on a research

project in Kyrgyzstan which examines how youngmen and women there who have been able toenter the university are surviving the transition toadulthood under very difficult conditions. Hisresearch also has examined student and parentaspirations and expectations about universitiesand major subject fields among cohorts ofsecondary school graduates, entering universitystudents and their parents in northernKyrgyzstan.

<< Jennifer Grisham-Brown, Professor, SpecialEducation and Rehabilitation CounselingGrisham-Brown has worked for five years with

Adopt!inc., a United States non-profit group, inan effort to open a high-quality children’s homein Guatemala. She is a founding board memberof Hope for Tomorrow, the Civil Society, whichhas been overseeing and operating the children’shome, La Esperanza. Grisham-Brown’s projectwill provide students with an internationalpracticum experience at La Esperanza, givingthem the opportunity to use their knowledge andskills about child development, assessment,program planning and program quality in adifferent setting, culture and country.

College of Education AwardsInternationalization Grants to Faculty Seven College of Education faculty members were chosen in 2008-09 as the inaugural recipients of small grants earmarked for supporting

projects geared toward program improvement with research and/or curricular implications and designed to enhance international partnerships.These projects that receive funding incorporate international travel as an integral part of the coursework and research outlined by the programs,

which gives participating students and researchers hands-on experience with the application of educational principles in other countries.

<< Hannah Hanke • Music • Quito, Ecuador

“No book, newspaper article or interview can prepare a person forcomplete immersion into a new culture. Luckily, I have beenimmersed into a culture characterized by warm, loving people. Also,I have been lucky enough to observe and teach guitar, percussion,band, choir, general music and a workshop during my time here. Theteachers here are so supportive and helpful, willing to give me anyopportunity I ask for. Teamwork comes first in their approach.”

<< Claire Jones • Elementary • Perth, Australia

“All teachers have their different teaching style and all teachers arerequired to assess their work. Teachers are held responsible for theirteaching. Teachers in both Australia and the United States teachstudents in a variety of ways and styles, and both school systemsrecognize that. Both have students with disabilities in the classroomand it is very important that these students are in the classroom asmuch as possible.”

<< Laura Thurman • Middle SchoolCape Town, South Africa

“There are layers of culture and subculture, language and dialect,that bring a distinct richness to this school. Each culture iscelebrated. There is a place for every student, no matter theirbackground. For all the differences across cultures, they work towardachieving a harmonious and unified learning environment, auniversal idea and goal common among many people and manynations.”

<< Kallie Turner • Elementary • Christchurch, New Zealand

“Rubrics were a big part of assessment in New Zealand, and thiswas more of the grading that students received. The students alsotook ownership in their assessment by helping create the rubric aswell as assessing their own work. Instead of report cards given at theend of each term, the students create a Personal Learning Plan (PLP)folder which holds examples of their work in all the different contentareas from different points throughout the year so parents, studentsand teachers have a more summative look at their students’progress.”

COST: Consortium for Overseas Student TeachingReflections on Learning While Teaching


One of the purposes of the Consortium for Overseas Student Teaching (COST) is to givestudent teachers the opportunity to gain greater sensitivity to other cultures, a more informedperspective on the United States’ role in the world, greater appreciation of their heritage, andincreased self-confidence from having successfully dealt with new and challenging situations— qualities much needed among today’s teachers. But for Hannah Hanke, the experiencealso resulted in a full-time job with her COST school.“I’ve been interested in teaching internationally for a while, and the COST program seemed

like a foot-in-the-door opportunity,” Hanke said. “While I was student teaching in Ecuador atColegio Americano de Quito, I was very happy and informed my supervising teacher anddepartment coordinator that I wanted to be considered for employment there.”While most students return to the United States to begin teaching, Hanke is very excited

about her new opportunity, but she also feels that she is fully prepared to teach should shereturn to the U.S. In addition, the music education major was quick to add that teaching inEnglish and Spanish also will benefit her in the future.

More than anything, Hanke thinks the COST program isa wonderful opportunity and worth the time and effort foranyone serious about becoming a teacher.“All placement schools in the COST program are

outstanding schools with experienced, accomplished staff,”Hanke said. “Even if Colegio Americano de Quito had notoffered me a teaching position, I would feel prepared totackle any teaching position in the U.S. And the teachers Imet there were among the most interesting and inspiringpeople I have ever met.”

Named after theformer Kentuckyhistorian laureate,the new Thomas D.Clark Studies inEducation, PublicPolicy and SocialChange bookseries, acollaborative

effort between the UniversityPress of Kentucky (UPK) and the College of Education,

was unveiled during the fall 2008 with the publication ofKolan Thomas Morelock’s Taking the Town: Collegiate andCommunity Culture in the Bluegrass, 1880-1917.“Dr. Clark believed there was a lack of books on the history

of education in Kentucky,” said Steve Wrinn, director of UPK.“Our vision is to use dissertations from students of theCollege of Education because what the College is doing is vitalto the Commonwealth. But we also want to encourage peopleto write books on topics that haven’t yet been covered.”In Taking the Town, Morelock, who received his Ph.D. in

educational policy studies and evaluation at UK in 1999 andis the director of programs at the Hope Center in Lexington,gives readers an in-depth look at the social and culturalorganizations that have nearly faded from history, illustratingthe close ties between the town once known as the “Athens ofthe West” and its institutions of higher education.

“Dostoevsky has written that ‘As a general rule, people,even the wicked, are much more naïve and simple-heartedthan we suppose. And we ourselves are, too,’ ” Morelocksaid. “Perhaps so, but I hope this book demonstrates to thereader that no matter how naïve and simple-hearted theinhabitants — or their historians — may be, the social andcultural space of any community during any era is occupiedby a complex puzzle of actors and ideas.”The series puts research on the Commonwealth in the

spotlight, research which augments understanding ofnational or regional developments, or makes vivid relevanceof those same developments to the pace and direction ofchange here at home. While remaining open to a variety ofmethodological approaches, the overall aim of the series is toencourage an imaginative engagement with the task andopportunities which define the present.“We are pleased to collaborate with the University Press to

initiate this book series in honor of Dr. Thomas Clark,” saidRosetta Sandidge, interim dean of the College of Education.“He was a true friend and supporter of the College ofEducation. With this book series, we can generate andcontribute to the literature a new understanding of the historyof education in the Commonwealth.”To view a video podcast with Morelock discussing Taking

the Town, visit the UPK media center online atwww.kentuckypress.com/takingtown_pod.cfm.For more information on the University Press of Kentucky,

The fifth annual Kentucky Literacy Research Symposium (KLRS), held in March 2009,focused on Response to Intervention (RTI), a very current “hot topic” in Kentucky’seducation system. The event was co-sponsored by the University of Kentucky College ofEducation Carol Lee Robertson Endowment, the Collaborative Center for LiteracyDevelopment and the Kentucky Reading Association. Janice Almasi, the Carol LeeRobertson Endowed Professor of Literacy Education, invited five researchers to presenttheir research and views on RTI from a national perspective, and more than 175 participantsfrom across the state assembled to hear and collect rich information on RTI.The purpose of this event is to bring the foremost thinkers and researchers in the field of

literacy research to Kentucky to address issues of national, state and local importance. Thisevent serves as a springboard for future initiatives in which Kentucky is showcased andviewed nationally as a literacy “think tank” where scholars, researchers and practitionerscan come together to critically examine and discuss issues in literacy research and practice.The normal format was altered to accommodate the topic and the response it would

command. The first day’s session focused on research with national researchers sharing theirwork related to RTI. Barbara Marinak (Penn State University) and Linda Dorn (University ofArkansas at Little Rock) presented an overview of Response to Intervention. Rachel Brown(Syracuse University) focused on her research related to Transactional Strategies Instruction, areading intervention. James Collins (State University of New York at Buffalo) and Susan De LaPaz (University of Maryland) presented their work on writing strategies. The second day wasgeared toward school practitioners and administrators as the focus was on RTIimplementation. Each researcher shared strategies on putting RTI into action in the classroom.Each year at KLRS the Friend of Literacy Award is given to an individual who has

demonstrated a long-standing commitment to literacy and literacy research in theCommonwealth of Kentucky. This year it was presented to Senator Dan Kelly (14th District).Senator Kelly, Kentucky’s Senate Majority leader, has been one of the state’s greatchampions of literacy for many years. He currently serves on the Interim Joint Committeeon Education and is on the Senate Standing Committee on Education.

Luck Publishes How-To BookWhen her student teacher came up to

her last year worried about thesupervised year coming to an end,Michele Luck gave her some advice andjoked that she should write it all down.However, what started as a laugh turnedinto the book A Lesson Plan forTeachers, New and Old: A Guide forStudent Teachers, New Teachers andthe Experienced Ones.

“We had talked about everything possible, but she still felt she wouldforget all I had taught her and be lost in her own classroom,” said Luck,who received her bachelor’s (1999) and master’s (2000) degrees ineducation from UK. “My husband encouraged me to write it down andthen publish the book for other new or struggling teachers. The first yearof teaching is tough. There is no way around that.”Luck’s book is a guide based on her experiences and helps explain

how to maintain an effective and efficient classroom.

Danner Publishes Sleep Study FindingsMoving from middle school to high

school, students face changes in theirsocial lives and biologic pressures thatoften can result in sleeping changes,namely students staying up longer asthey move through high school. Thischange can lead to increased sleepinessduring the day and may contribute toincreased odds of these students beinginvolved in automobile accidents.

However, a study recently released by Fred Danner, professor and chairof the Department of Educational, School and Counseling Psychologyand published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine, indicates thatthis safety concern may be lessened through the institution of laterstarting times for high schools.“Our findings are consistent with everything we know from laboratory

studies about the devastating effects of chronic sleep deprivation ondaytime alertness,” Danner said. “They suggest that the typical pattern ofmoving school start times an hour earlier when kids move from middleto high school is not only bad for their performance in school but mayalso increase their chances for motor vehicle crashes.”Danner worked on this study with co-investigator Barbara Phillips, a

faculty member in the Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care and SleepMedicine in the UK College of Medicine.

Guskey Named AERA FellowIn April 2009 the American

Education Research Association (AERA)named Professor Emeritus Tom Guskeyto its second class of Fellows, one of thehighest honors an educationalresearcher can receive in AERA.

Atwood’s Career Recognized by ASTEWith more than 40 years at UK under

his belt, Ron Atwood retired from full-time work in June 2007. During thoseyears, Atwood’s service and commitmentto teaching, research and the Associationfor Science Teacher Education (ASTE)was unquestioned. As a result, Atwoodwas presented the Honorary EmeritusMember Award by ASTE.“It means a lot in that it was given by

the organization I was most involved with,” said Atwood, a member of theCollege of Education emeritus faculty. “Ten colleagues had to write letters

of recommendation, and they were very complimentary. This is a very niceculminating award to my career.”Although retired, Atwood is still active, working with doctoral

Firefighter Fitness and PerformanceSubjects of Abel’s StudyThanks to support from the Kentucky

Fire Commission, assistant professorMark Abel has been conducting aninvestigation into ways to improve thehealth and fireground performance offirefighters. According to Abel, researchindicates that heart disease (i.e., heartattacks) causes 45 percent of on-dutydeaths of firefighters in the United

States. Therefore, this research is vitally important.During the training sessions, Abel and his team travel to Richmond,

Ky., to train firefighters for one hour while they are on duty. A baselinewas completed in December 2008 with similar testing sessions held inMarch and June 2009.The project is serving as a pilot program to provide data to support

federal grant submissions, and ultimately Abel would like to evaluate theeffects of the program on reduction in work-related injuries and workers’compensation costs.“Preliminary analysis of the first three months of fitness training

indicated that our program improved the pass rate on a standardizedfirefighter test from 50 percent to 75 percent,” Abel said. “Feedback fromthe firefighters has been very positive, and we are collaborating with theKentucky Fire Commission to extend the program. We also have a grantin review with FEMA [Federal Emergency Management Agency] tocontinue the program for an additional three years.”

Henry Helps Adults Get “PlugGED In”Earning a GED just got better for

adult learners in Virginia, thanks in partto College of Education AssistantProfessor Laurie Henry.When Richard Sebastian and his

colleagues were developing the new“PlugGED In” program in Virginia, hecalled on Henry to serve as the leadcurriculum developer for the programwhich was designed to allow high

school dropouts to earn their GED and give them an opportunity to earnskills to enhance their marketability in the growing technology sector.“This program provides an important opportunity for these individuals

to turn their life around,” Henry said. “We have already witnessed amajor shift in the participants’ confidence levels and eagerness to learnas they complete their GED certifications and make progress in buildingtheir knowledge in the digital literacy and professional soft skills that arecore components of the curriculum. ‘PlugGED In’ has given theparticipants a second chance at developing a career path that they neverthought they would get.”Through her work on this project, Henry hopes to initiate a similar

program in Kentucky that will bring benefits to the Commonwealth’sgrowing workforce.

KEA-SP Teaches Students Through the Fine ArtsWith the state of the economy today, many programs across the

country are facing more and more cuts, and education is not immune tothis trend. Often, it is in the area of fine arts education where these cutsbegin.However, the UK chapter of the Kentucky Education Association

Student Program (KEA-SP) believes the loss of arts and music programsleaves a huge void in the humanities. As a result, the group held an “Artsfor Smarts” day at Cardinal Valley Elementary School in Lexington.Sponsored by a National Education Association (NEA) Community

Learning through America's Schools (CLASS) grant, “Arts for Smarts”was designed to provide third, fourth and fifth grade students withactivities that will teach math, science, language arts and social studiesthrough visual art, music and dance.“The focus of this project is to demonstrate the possible uses of arts

as creative means for teaching core content material,” said Kevin Fox, co-president of UK’s KEA-SP and a student ambassador in the College ofEducation. “Not only does this provide extraordinary opportunities for

students to enjoy learning, but it also sparks creative thinking that hasbeen proven to help students later on in their academic careers.”

Doctoral Students Train Teachers in BoliviaWhile visiting the African countries of Tanzania, Uganda and Kenya in

2000, Ruby Owiny noticed an underlying lack of knowledge among localeducators concerning students with disabilities. Through conversationswith these teachers and students, Owiny came to realize that studentswho were not in school or had repeated grades several times might besuffering from disabilities and that their teachers were not equipped withthe means or the knowledge to accommodate these students.Owiny wanted to develop a way to help teachers in developing

countries learn how to make instruction accessible to all children, andshe considered starting an orphanage or a school dedicated to servingthese children. As a master's student in Learning and Behavior Disordersat Asbury in 2003, Owiny found an opportunity to help teachers in Boliviadevelop an understanding of how to better meet diverse needs ofstudents thanks to Project REACH (Recognizing and Encouraging AllChildren's Hopes) and the Food for the Hungry organization. In 2004,she returned to provide instruction on characteristics of disabilities andstrategies for helping students overcome the challenges they face.

Ruby Owiny conducted a seminar forteachers in Apillapampa, Bolivia.


“Teachers in the village areas of Bolivia are required by thegovernment to teach a minimum of two years in the poor, rural villagesbefore being assigned to a school in the city,” said Owiny, now a doctoralstudent in the College of Education Department of Special Education andRehabilitation Counseling. “Because these teachers often resent thisrequirement, they do not always give their best efforts to their students.When the teacher mentoring program in Bolivia was in its third year, Ienrolled at UK and realized the need for further education, not only forknowing better research-based methodologies to include in our trainings,but also for credibility with foreign governments and their teachers.”The core team of instructors also includes Jeremy Mills, a College of

Education doctoral student and a high school special education teacherin Jessamine County, Ky., Amy Wade, a speech/language pathologist nearDayton, Ohio, and Kristin Knowles, a first- and second-grade teacher inJessamine County.

Students Find Success on Math PRAXISThe Master’s with Initial Certification program in the College of

Education produced seven students who received the ETS Recognition ofExcellence for their scores on the Mathematics Content Knowledge Testduring fall 2008. This honor is bestowed upon those students whosescores rank within the top 15 percent of all test takers who took theassessment in previous years.“I have never had this many students achieve this in one year,” said

Margaret Mohr-Schroeder, assistant professor in mathematicseducation. “We usually average one to two a year. I am very excited forthe direction our program is headed. Our mathematics departmentshould be commended for their excellent work in working with theseteachers.”Six of the teachers were UK-NOYCE, a National Science Foundation-

funded program that gives money to pre-service teachers wanting tobecome certified in mathematics or science at the middle or secondarylevel in exchange for agreeing to teach two years in a high needs publicschool district in Kentucky.The honored students were Leigh Ellen Bristow, Rachel Dunnagan,

Erica Gegner, Chris Hawboldt, Dave Kelton, Steven Reeves and DanielleWebster.
