The doctoral advisor is said to be one of the most important persons—if not the single most critical person—with whom doctoral students will develop a relationship during their doctoral degree programs
(Baird 1995). However, we have limited knowledge regarding how doctoral advisors see their roles and responsibilities as advisors. Therefore,
through in-depth interviews, we explored the perceptions of 25 exemplary doctoral advisors, who have graduated a large number
of doctoral students, about their roles and responsibilities as advisors. We conclude this article with implications for doctoral
education.

This article explores the theoretical foundations of social cohesion as it relates to higher education institutions. In so doing it seeks (a) to understand the core elements of social cohesion—social
capital, human capital and ethical behavioural norms that serve a common good—and (b) to establish a flexible framework for
understanding the combined contributions of higher education to society. Tertiary institutional phenomena (those occurring
in higher education) that are involved in the creation of social cohesion are hereafter termed academic social cohesion. The particular emphasis is on higher education’s role in cultivating moral awareness as a vital product of institutions’
primary activities. These core functions of colleges and universities are discussed in relation to both academic social cohesion
and the degree to which they should involve the creation of specific ethical norms.

In this article, we concentrate upon the lifeworld resources that comprise the funds of knowledge for children living in a
rural community in the southeastern United States. Through interview conversations with a group of third grade children, we
identified three lifeworld resources—interdependence, garbage dumping, and feral dogs—that rural teachers might draw on to
generate curriculum that is connected to the community in which they teach. Through such connections rural teachers may increase
the likelihood that they will remain teaching in rural schools.

In this rejoinder, I comment on how going through the activity of participating in this forum and of engaging in dialogue
with my commentators makes sense at several levels—most importantly, at the personal and the conceptual—and how these two
levels are intricately connected. The link between the personal and conceptual (cognition and emotion)—their de facto unity—is
highlighted through a discussion of a theoretical stance that has to do with ineluctable dialogicality of any and all aspects, incarnations, and expressions of human development, being, and learning. The dialogicality of knowing
comes to the fore if knowledge is understood as being part and parcel of ongoing real life activities out in the world imbued
with ideology, values, and commitments. In this stance, knowing and acting, words and deeds, theory and practice cannot be
ever thought of as separate realms; instead they inevitably and necessarily appear as belonging together and as forming inherent
aspects (or dimensions) of one and the same process of people collaboratively engaging with and transforming the world.

This article discusses Philip Reeve's young adult science fiction novels as literary collages. It explores the ways in which
the author uses postmodernisms to introduce big ideas and construct a compelling futuristic world that combines fast-paced
adventure with the bildungsroman.

Few pieces of GLBTQ fiction have received the popular and scholarly acclaim awarded to Alex Sanchez’s Rainbow Boys series. Although “problem novels” are rarely taken seriously as literature, the books—the first novel in particular—have
joined the few pieces of GLBTQ literature incorporated into educational discourse and curriculum. In this article, the author
suggests that although the positive nature and surface construction appeals to those seeking “affirmative” representations
of GLBTQ youth, the contributions made by the series may be overshadowed by its reliance on heteronormative gender stereotypes
that may actually work to perpetuate homophobic attitudes toward gay sexuality.

This essay on the ethical mission of the university explores extremes of anti-social behavior, visiting numerous crime scenes
before concluding that contemporary higher education has lost the capacity—and even the language—for taking character development
seriously. In his attempt to determine whether coincidently traditional-liberationist-diversiphilic-apathetic colleges can
morally improve their charges, Peter Wood collects a wrenching compendium of violent academic mayhem.

This article explores how incarcerated youth and adult supervisors contest claims to identity via language of “representing”.
Comparing how youth and adults “represent” in discussions of their own past and future selves sheds light on the constrained
universe of discourse within which both groups work to express identities and on the basis of which we counsel, mentor, and
educate young people. Acknowledging these constraints can contribute to understanding what I call exceptionalism—the idea that only exceptional poor and raced young men, through great personal effort and sacrifice, may resist the lure
of the “street”. I conclude by discussing implications of this work for education and youth development work both inside and
beyond the juvenile justice system as well as for research across lines of difference by committed “outsiders”.

Racializing educational change: Melting pot and mosaic influences on educational policy and practice
Allison Skerrett 《Journal of Educational Change》2008,9(3):261-280
This article racializes educational change by examining literature on the history of educational approaches to diversity in
the United States and Ontario, Canada to demonstrate how their respective national myths for engaging with diversity—the melting
pot and mosaic—have impacted their educational policies and practices over three definable eras of educational change. The
educational policies and practices of the two countries are evaluated in relation to four significant and—within the existing
literature—widely used political and educational strategies for responding to racial and ethnocultural diversity in schools.
The paper cautions that the current era of curriculum standardization and high stakes assessments that reflects a melting
pot approach to education reinstitutes and reinforces an inequitable vertical mosaic structure of schooling experiences and
outcomes for diverse student populations. It urges policy makers to consider how the current movement toward post-standardization,
which reflects a mosaic approach, is presently influencing educational policy and practice in international contexts and achieving
more just and effective learning outcomes for diverse student groups.

This article compares the first-person narratives of two adolescent girls in the novels The Rain Catchers and The House on Mango Street. I propose that adolescent girls can use literacy to read the world around them as a text and therefore help them to form
their own identities enough to ultimately find authority in telling their own stories. I use Judith Langer’s theory of envisionment-building
as a primary lens through which to interpret the girls’ narrative work and further elucidate the feminist aspects involved
through Belenky et al.’s famous work, Women’s Ways of Knowing.

Scott O’Dell’s Island of the Blue Dolphins tells the archetypal story of the young, virgin, orphan girl who is vulnerable to either debauchery or rescue. That such
a girl must succumb to either one or the other is a necessary element of the archetype. In O’Dell’s work—one intended, after
all, for children—the heroine is rescued by a paternalistic figure and re-inscribed into the patriarchal world. Yet, in the
hands of young readers, Island—part fairytale, part rescue narrative, part feminist parable—becomes a story of independence and survival, despite the heroine’s
“rescue” at the end.

Literature that vividly and explicitly describes (often in the form of testimonies from one or more characters) traumatic
and/or catastrophic events of human history poses particular challenges for readers. This article proposes testimonial response as one approach to responding to these “risky historical texts.” By way of introducing testimonial response, the article
outlines a three-part framework. After considering how testimonial response extends and complements other traditional approaches
to literature response to give readers a fuller experience of risky historical literature, the article applies the framework
of testimonial response to the picture book, From Slave Ship to Freedom Road. The article concludes with implications for bringing risky historical literature and testimonial response into the classroom.

In this article, we explore one of the important peritextual features of picturebooks—the endpapers. In order to represent the rich diversity of form and function displayed by endpapers, we group examples along two dimensions: whether the endpapers are illustrated or unillustrated, and whether the front and back end papers are identical or dissimilar. Within the four categories delineated by these two dimensions, we further articulate the various roles that endpapers can play in the construction of meaning from picturebooks. We present quotations from young children that show how they use endpapers as resources for literary and aesthetic interpretation, and provide suggestions for the integration of talk about endpapers within classroom literature discussions.

This article argues that Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials may be read as a series which attempts to assault the Christian doctrine of God. We believe that this demonstrably accords with Pullman’s personal views, and that, through his story, he seeks to foster such views in his readership. However, the accuracy of his attack falls short of its intended mark when it is examined alongside classical Christian theology. The Authority which Pullman’s narrative destroys is actually more akin to the Christian view of the devil than he is the divine, and the victories of Will and Lyra—as a new Adam and Eve—have strong resemblances to the victories which Christianity claims for Christ and Mary. Pullman’s narrative, therefore, becomes an inversion of his deicidal intention rather than an inverting and revolutionary destruction of theology.

Mathematical concepts and conceptions have been theorized as abstractions from—and therefore transcending—bodily and embodied
experience. In this contribution, we re-theorize mathematical conceptions by building on recent philosophical work in dialectical
phenomenology. Accordingly, a conception exists only in, through, and as of the experiences that the individual realizes it.
To exemplify our reconceptualization of mathematical conceptions, we draw on an episode from a study in a second-grade classroom
where the students learned about three-dimensional geometrical objects.

Shulman (1986, 1987) coined the term pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) to address what at that time had become increasingly evident—that content knowledge itself was not sufficient for teachers
to be successful. Throughout the past two decades, researchers within the field of mathematics teacher education have been
expanding the notion of PCK and developing more fine-grained conceptualizations of this knowledge for teaching mathematics.
One such conceptualization that shows promise is mathematical knowledge for teaching—mathematical knowledge that is specifically useful in teaching mathematics. While mathematical knowledge for teaching has
started to gain attention as an important concept in the mathematics teacher education research community, there is limited
understanding of what it is, how one might recognize it, and how it might develop in the minds of teachers. In this article,
we propose a framework for studying the development of mathematical knowledge for teaching that is grounded in research in
both mathematics education and the learning sciences.

This article explores how Sandra Cisneros alludes to and recasts popular fairy tales in The House on Mango Street to reveal their troubled legacy in the lives of many women in the novel. Drawing upon Latina feminist theory and Cisneros’s
autobiographical writing, this article posits that the main character Esperanza’s alternative “happily ever after” comes through
locating the vocation of writing as the fulcrum for self-definition and social change. It is suggested that feminist literary
criticism can be enhanced through analysis of heroines from diverse cultural backgrounds and theoretical frameworks attuned
to racial and ethnic diversity.

The first author, a student in a graduate children’s literature class, designed a project to locate “good” mathematics-based
children’s literature selections. However, the reference tools usually consulted (e.g., Books in Print) to locate books by topic were of little help, and those she located under individual mathematics topics were mostly traditional
mathematics books rather than good read-aloud selections. Consequently, she perused the university library’s sizeable juvenile
collection to find books that would meet her selection criteria. This article describes the influence of two landmark documents
for mathematics teaching and learning—Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics [NCTM], 1989) and Principles and Standards for School Mathematics (NCTM, 2000)—as she engaged in the process.
