Teacher Educator Knowledge, Practice, and S-STTEP Research
No full textThis chapter is about what can be known by and about teacher educators and teacher education through Self-Study of Teaching and Teacher Education Practices or S-STTEP research. It reviews how teacher educator knowledge is defined in and through the process of S-STTEP. Of particular interest is the shape and form that teacher educator knowledge takes in S-STTEP; how S-STTEP allows us to uncover, articulate, develop, and represent teacher educator knowledge; and how this knowledge is justified. One main distinction guides this review: a view of teacher educator knowledge as a stable quality that individual teacher educators acquire, possess, and perform, in contrast to a view of teacher educator knowledge as that which manifests itself and constantly develops in and through practice. This distinction, as will become apparent, is critical to understanding self-studies of teacher educator knowledge because it represents two different ways of seeing teacher educator knowledge that shape and define who is the “knower” about teacher education and what justifies claims to know something about teacher education (including more conventional conceptions and methods of science and what is often framed as “alternative” research approaches, such as S-STTEP methodology).status: Published onlin

The effects of berry polyphenols on the gut microbiota and blood pressure: A systematic review of randomized clinical trials in humans
No full textBerry consumption has beneficial effects on blood pressure. Intestinal microbiota transform berry phytochemicals into more bioactive forms. Thus, we performed a systematic review of randomized clinical trials to determine whether berry polyphenols in foods, extracts or supplements have effects on both the profile of gut microbiota and systolic and diastolic blood pressure in humans. PubMed, Cochrane Library, Scopus, and CAB Abstracts (EBSCOhost) were searched for randomized clinical trials in humans published from 1 January 2011 to 29 October 2021. Search results were imported into Covidence for screening and data extraction by two blinded reviewers, who also performed bias assessment independently. The literature search identified 216 publications; after duplicates were removed, 168 publications were screened with 12 full-text publications assessed for eligibility. Ultimately three randomized clinical trials in humans met the eligibility criteria. One randomized clinical trial showed a low risk of bias while the other two randomized clinical trials included low, high or unclear risk of bias. Together the randomized clinical trials showed that berry consumption (Aronia berry, strawberries, raspberries, cloudberries and bilberries) for 8–12 weeks had no significant effect on both blood pressure and the gut microbiota. More randomized clinical trials are needed to determine the effects of berry consumption on the profile of gut microbiota and blood pressure in humans

Sex Addiction: the Chicken-and-Egg Dilemma of Diagnosis
No full textIn May 2013, the American Psychiatric Association will release the next version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-V). Interestingly, sex addiction, despite significant attention from mainstream media, will be omitted from the manual. This omission presents a challenge to clinicians who treat sex addiction, and researchers aiming to further our understanding of the issue. This commentary outlines some of the reasons sex addiction was not included in the DSM-V, including a ‘chicken-and-egg’ conundrum, which makes it difficult to generate research without a clear diagnosis, and difficult to establish a definitive diagnosis without a supportive body of research
Bertice Berry, Ph.D. - Best-selling Author and Entertainer
No full textNO ONE DEFIES STEREOTYPES, generalizations, or clichés more than Dr. Bertice Berry. Growing up poor in Wilmington, Delaware, Berry was told by a high school teacher that she was “not college material.” Fortunately, there was another teacher who believed in her, and Berry applied to several schools without any idea how she would pay her tuition. The day her application arrived at Jacksonville University in Florida, a wealthy benefactor called the Admissions Department looking for a student “who could swim if they had the right backing,” and might sink without it.
Berry graduated magna cum laude from Jacksonville, and subsequently earned a Ph.D. in sociology from Kent State University at age 26. She became one of Kent State’s most popular teachers by using humor to address such difficult subjects as racism and sexism. Upon leaving academia, she became an award-winning entertainer, lecturer, comedian, and television host, creating a niche as both a gifted speaker with a comic edge and a comic with a serious message.
Dr. Berry is the best-selling author of the inspirational memoir I’m On My Way, But Your Foot Is On My Head. Her first work of fiction, Redemption Song, was also a bestseller. Her other works include Jim & Louella’s Homemade Heart-Fix Remedy, and When Love Calls, You Better Answer. She has graciously donated all of the royalties from the sales of her books to organizations that help families in transition, raise funds for scholarships, and provide resource information to low-income families.https://corescholar.libraries.wright.edu/archives_presidential_lecture_series/1047/thumbnail.jp
