Career Advancement Barriers Faced by Women: A Descriptive Study in Public Sector Management
Get PDFDespite the growing number of women in the workforce, they are underrepresented in advancements when pursuing their careers. Previous research studies have found that there are a lot of barriers impeding women from reaching top management positions. The purpose of this graduate project is to describe whether there are barrier similarities or differences among non-management female employees and female directors in the public sector. Two groups of women will be asked to participate in an online survey to compare their experiences related to career advancement barriers. One hundred and five Los Angeles County female employees in non-management positions who have six or more years and five female directors promoted within the previous year will also be asked to participate. Qualitative and quantitative data will be gathered by utilizing survey questions that include demographics, a Likert scale, and additional open-ended questions among female employees in non-management positions and female directors in Los Angeles County public sector. This graduate project aims to identify barriers and differences female employees in non-management and director positions in Los Angeles County experienced and how they overcame them. It is essential to investigate these barriers to enable women to succeed and advance in their careers. This graduate project's topic is important because as more women join top-level management positions, they can strengthen diversity, policies, and practices.by Ingrid Rodriguez Aguillo

Engagement through Aesthetic Cultural Experiences in the L2 Classroom
No full textEsta investigación analiza cómo la integración de expresiones artísticas puede promover el compromiso de los estudiantes de inglés mientras utilizan las culturas de L1 y L2 como un contexto enriquecedor y significativo. El estudio se realizó con 20 estudiantes de grado noveno, 8 niñas y 12 niños, de 13 a 15 años de edad, pertenecientes a un reconocido colegio privado del occidente de Bogotá, Colombia. Su nivel de inglés oscila entre A2 y B1, según el marco MCER. Esta investigación siguió un diseño de investigación acción cualitativa involucrando los siguientes instrumentos: notas de campo y grabaciones de audio de las sesiones de implementación, artefactos de los estudiantes, que evidencian sus expresiones artísticas finales, y entrevistas en parejas y grupales que reflejan los pensamientos y experiencias de los estudiantes con respecto a las actividades. Las conclusiones muestran que los estudiantes se involucraron en tres niveles: conductualmente, ya que participaron activamente en las discusiones y tareas creativas; emocionalmente, ya que expresaron entusiasmo y conexiones personales con las actividades; y cognitivamente, ya que reflexionaron sobre temas culturales y aprendizaje de idiomas. Sugiriendo que la integración de la educación estética en las aulas de inglés mejora la motivación, la conciencia cultural y el desarrollo lingüístico de los estudiantes al crear una experiencia de aprendizaje inmersiva.PregradoLicenciado en Bilingüismo con Énfasis en la Enseñanza del InglésThis research analyzes how the integration of artistic expressions can promote these EFL students’ engagement while using L1 and L2 cultures as an enriching and meaningful context. The study was conducted with 20 ninth-grade students, 8 girls and 12 boys, from 13 to 15 years old who belong to a recognized private school in the western area of Bogotá, Colombia. Their English proficiency level ranges from A2 to B1, according to the CEFR framework. This research followed a qualitative action design involving the following instruments: field notes and audio recordings from the sessions of the implementation, students’ artifacts, which evidence their final artistic expressions, and pair and group interviews reflecting students’ thoughts and experiences with the activities. Conclusions show that students engaged in three levels: behaviorally, as they actively participated in discussions and creative tasks; emotionally, as they expressed enthusiasm and personal connections to the activities; and cognitively, as they reflected on cultural themes and language learning. Suggesting that integrating aesthetic education into EFL classrooms enhances student motivation, cultural awareness, and linguistic development by creating an immersive learning experience

The Lion Who Saw Himself in the Water
No full textHere is a long 32-page development of a traditional fable motif with a novel ending. Share the Lion is misunderstood by the other animals when he roars, even when he roars "Why are you running away?" He comes to a pool thirsty and is ready to drink when he roars and so frightens himself. The other animals try to get him to realize that it is only a reflection. Finally, he has the courage to take a drink -- and the roaring image goes away. They all live happily ever after. Rodriguez has fun with the animals peeping out from behind rocks and bushes or tying their monkey tails together. The three monkeys at the poolside are doing "see no evil, hear no evil, say no evil." Full color all the way through the book. About 8½" x 11½".First editionIdries Sha
270 - Ingrid Jane Slette
No full textGlobal climate change is causing more extreme droughts, as well as subtler chronic changes in precipitation patterns. Both chronic and extreme precipitation change can alter ecosystem structure and function, and these alterations may affect how systems respond to future extreme climatic events. Understanding how legacies of various past precipitation changes may alter the effects of future extreme droughts will be important for predicting ecosystem responses to climate change. We investigated how ecological legacies of experimentally-imposed chronic and extreme precipitation changes altered the impact of an extreme drought on an economically-important grassland ecosystem.Top Scholars for University-Wide Graduate Programs
