Network of Folx: Applying the Use of Community Cultural Wealth to the Experiences of Black First-Generation HBCU Students
No full textDespite improvements in the rates of college admission over the past few decades, college persistence and graduation rates continue to be problematic, particularly for marginalized students—students of color and students from low-income and/or first-generation families at all institutional types. When attention is shifted to Black first-generation students at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), persistence research neglects to include how Black first-generation college students own their educational experience to gain access to college and persist through graduation nor does the research examine cultural factors that help these students persist through the college-going process. Building from both student persistence and community cultural wealth frameworks, the purpose of this study is to examine the lived pre-college experiences of Black first-generation HBCU students
Guiding Tomorrow’s Critical Thinkers Through Structured AI Prompting
No full textAs I write this piece, I am not too far removed from the full-time doctoral student experience (conferred summer 2022) and live by the mantra “work smarter not harder.” Generative AI allows students to work smarter and brainstorm topics and ideas by asking the AI tool for definitions and key considerations. Research indicates that technology can support students in their academic writing process by serving as a multi-tasking assistant, virtual tutor, and digital peer, which enhances their learning experience (Ambrose et al., 2010). With generative AI, students can ask to clarify research questions or ideas and seek guidance on how to frame an argument. Technology tools support the development of critical thinking skills by presenting diverse viewpoints and encouraging deeper analysis (Brookfield, 2012). Research has also found that AI-assisted writing can improve the quality of academic writing by providing immediate feedback on grammar, style, and coherence (McNamara et al., 2015)

From flesh to fiction : the visible and the invisible in the work of Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Eudora Welty and Elizabeth Bowen.
No full textPhDOur ways of thinking modernism and its legacy are imprinted with the pattern of an
opposition, a struggle between two sets of extremes: objective and subjective; form
and feeling; mechanistic and organic; mind and body; knowing and being; self and
world; aesthetic and historical. The three writers whose work I explore in this thesis
challenge prevailing notions of this oppositional discourse. Entering the scene of
modernism late in its history, Elizabeth Bowen, Eudora Welty and Maurice Merleau-
Ponty develop a new kind of vision that makes us rethink the relationships between
perceiver and perceived, between mind, body and world. All three writers undertake a
fundamental reorganisation of the relationships between internal consciousness and
external things through the narration of a perception that is outside the limits of
discrete sensations or causal relationships. Physical things are neither pure objecthood
nor merely external triggers for the ramblings of a solipsistic consciousness, rather
they infringe on a consciousness whose own edges are indistinct. This writing
establishes an interdependent and interlocutory relationship between subject and
world, which become not opposite ends of a perceptual scale, but aspects of a common
flesh. The intimate connection to the world is both comforting and threatening, both
reinforcing subjectivity and de-centring it.
The re-ordering of the connections between self and world leads to a reassessment of
collective identity and historical agency, as well as impacting upon approaches to
modes of representation. In trying to express the pre-linguistic experience of embodied
consciousness, this writing looks to models of mute expression found in visual images.
Exploring how the invisible aspects of experience emerge within the visible realm, the
writing takes on an often hallucinatory or uncanny character. Charting the passage
from being to doing, from perception to creation, from the style of the flesh to the style
of fiction, Merleau-Ponty, Welty and Bowen dissolve received boundaries and
distinctions at every level
