A visual Instrument for Military Public Affairs
This directed project is a visual guidebook that assists Missouri National Guard Soldiers, Airmen, and civilians onboarding within the Public Affairs Office and 70th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment. This guidebook serves as a tool for the creative-minded perspective to better understand materials such as the overall public affairs process, community relations, and social media creation and management. All the contents of this guidebook are directed from publicly-made information and labeled UNCLASSIFIED. This graphical guidebook uses vectors and images combined into one PDF file. Within the Military profession, it is typical and sometimes expected for members to relocate, deploy, or attend a new assignment. When a member leaves permanently or for an extended period, this guidebook can help assist as a tool for onboarding members when they join the 70th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment and Public Affairs Office. As information and practices are updated through the Department of Defense, this guidebook is given to the Missouri National Guard Public Affairs members to update for years to come. The intent of this guidebook includes graphical elements that make the material more appealing for the human eye to digest while answering some questions that an onboarding member may have
Between Sense and Nonsense
This project focuses on fiber art and its relationship to abject art, emotions, and the subconscious that are all evoked through sculpture. My project challenges ideas on societal norms, identity and ambiguity as I contribute to abject art and push the conversation forward within the contemporary world. I invite my audience to embrace the unfamiliar and to allow both beauty and oddity to coexist
Educational Technologist Perceived Self-Efficacy During Emergency Remote Teaching Due to a Nonpharmaceutical Intervention
This paper discusses the challenges and opportunities of educational technologists (ETs) during emergency remote teaching (ERT) in a non-pharmaceutical intervention (NPI), due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The study was guided by Albert Bandura’s social cognitive theory and self-efficacy framework. The study highlights the positive and negative reflections of self-efficacy for ETs during the transitions to different strategies in classroom teaching. It acknowledges the positive and negative effects on ETs from self-regulation, observational learning, and reciprocal determinism. The study design used was qualitative, aiming to identify the perceived self-efficacy of ETs during ERT in an NPI. Eight ETs from rural school districts were interviewed. The results revealed that ETs experienced both negative and positive mastery experiences, vicarious experiences, social persuasions, and emotional arousals during ERT. ETs demonstrated resilience and a sense of community in overcoming challenges related to technology access, professional development, and communication. The findings emphasize the importance of professional development, self-efficacy, and Bandura’s conceptual framework around self-efficacy that produces positive experiences and opportunities. The results of the interviews provide a guide for studies and preparations for procedures for teachers, staff, and ETs for future ERTs, such as the experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic
Voyage of St. Brendan and Matilda and Adeliza of Louvain
The Anglo-Norman Voyage of St. Brendan, penned by cleric Benedeit and dating to the first quarter of the twelfth century, belongs to the popular literary tradition surrounding the early Irish monastic Saint Brendan of Clonfert (c. 484–577 CE). Comprising 1840 lines, it has proved linguistically essential in scholarly study of early Anglo-Norman. One facet of its literary historical significance lies in its place among the first narrative poems composed in French octosyllabic couplets. Another lies in its patronage history, with one dedication clearly attributable to Adeliza of Louvain (1103–1151), second wife of Henry I (c. 1068–1135), and one manuscript witness instead dedicated to Henry’s first wife, Matilda of Scotland (1080–1118). Correspondingly, through both dedications, the text is a significant artifact attesting to women’s literate culture and influence
