Writing Stories of Gifts, Talents, and Passions: Narrative as a Way to Disrupt Deficit Perspectives Mark Latta College of Arts and Sciences, Marian University Indianapolis 3200 Cold Spring Rd, Indianapolis, IN 46222 THE COURSE: ENG 210 PUBLIC ACTION WRITING INTRODUCING DESIRE-BASED FRAMEWORKS & ABCD This community-engaged learning course explores how public literacy practices advocate community perspectives, document lived experience, and produce social texts. Students research contemporary and local uses of public writing, engage in written literacy practices that shape public discourse, and explore public applications of writing. Students produce at least one collaborative community literacy project and meet regularly off-campus. To prepare students for relational community engagement, we first explore desire based frameworks as a replacement script for deficit narratives. CHALLENGING DEFICIT NARRATIVES & IDENTITIES ENG 210 focuses on the Near Northwest Area (NNW), an area Marian is located within. The NNW is often defined through deficit narratives by city leaders, local media, and Central Indiana residents. Desire Based Frameworks: craft research to capture desire instead of damage [and are] concerned with understanding complexity, contradiction, and the self-determination of lived lives documenting not only the painful elements of social realities but also the wisdom and hope. (3) The Learning Tree trained ENG 210 and ART 101 in assetbased community development (ABCD), a form of community development that focuses on assets rather than deficits. This training was made possible by a grant from the Indiana Campus Compact. FORMING RELATIONSHIPS / SHARING LITERACIES What might it mean to write from a desire and asset-based perspective? Deficit Narratives: Dominant narratives that needs, concerns, or deficits. Defining a person, community, or place lacks while overlooking assets, abilities, knowledge, expertise, or desires. The Near Northwest Boundary Area COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP: THE LEARNING TREE We partner with The Learning Tree, a neighbor collective located in the NNW that specializes in the asset based community development. Its guiding principles are: 1. You Must See We 2. Learning is Key 3. We Must Break Rules 4. Love is What We Strive For 5. Develop a Gift Economy 6. Follow the Story as Well as the Investment (2) The class met regularly at Cle Bodega, at The Learning Tree, and in homes of NNW residents. We collected stories at neighborhood events, engaged in listening tours, and participated in community meals. The class wrote with residents to challenge dominant deficit narratives about the NNW and investigated what it means when these narratives are internalized. DISRUPTING DEFICIT PERSPECTIVES For the final project, the students in ENG 210 decided to create a g ideb k about the Near Northwest Area: Why the Near Northwest? This guidebook assembles responses from Marian students and community residents and was written over a series of dialogues and community meals. Why the Near Northwest? is designed to challenge misconceptions about the NNW and subtly invite readers to interrogate their own reliance upon deficit narratives. The guidebook will be made available to prospective and incoming Marian University students as well as parents. COMMUNITY ENGAGED LEARNING AT MARIAN ENG 210 Public Action Writing asks students to challenge deeply embedded social stories, develop relationships with community residents, and explore how writing is used to share community expertise. This type of community engaged learning works to enact the Franciscan Values in tangible and transformative ways. ENG 210 works to cross borders of difference and examine structural issues by forming relationships and providing witness to one another. This learning has meaningful implications. For example, racial reconciliation typically emerges as a central theme within the course. Marian is a predominately white institution. 52.3% of NNW residents identify as Black or African American. (3) By honoring community expertise and working alongside residents, students are encouraged to view society through humanizing, desire-based frames.

Networking for Success: Saint Joe Indy students prepare for an internship networking event through a Communication assignment Amanda Ostoich, Assistant Professor of Liberal Arts for Saint Joe Indy Alice Susemichel, Director of Workforce Development for Saint Joe Indy Earn and Learn Student Preparation in COM 101 During the week leading up to the event, all Saint Joe Indy students participated in a Networking Speech for a grade and a mock networking event in-class activity. The Networking Speech featured a detailed assignment and rubric, asking students to highlight their personalities, skills, and goals. Students performed the Networking Speech in pairs, starting with a handshake and introduction and ending with asking the peer employer a question. The speech comprised 8% of their class grade. Photo Credit: Marketing Communications Each Saint Joseph's College student is encouraged to pursue an Earn and Learn internship 15-24 hours per week while earning their associate degree. These experiences begin during the student s third term. The next class session, students participated in a Mock Networking Event, delivering conversational versions of their Networking Speeches to mock employers in the exact same venue and format as the Networking Event. Networking Event Results Saint Joe Indy students participated in an on-site Meet & Mingle Networking Event in September 2019. Although early in the Workforce Development Program, this event served as a first introduction between students and our employer partners their future bosses! Employers remained at cocktail table stations during the event. Students rotated in pairs (to minimize the stress of one-on-one interactions) from table to table every five minutes. Recognizing that most of our students have not participated in a formal networking event, Saint Joe Indy staff and faculty partnered to prepare students through the COM 101: Public Speaking course. Photo Credit: Marketing Communications 92% of employer partners rated the event a e ceedi g e ec a i . 100% of employer partners felt the students with whom they interacted were prepared. Students prepare for these paid, long-term internships with a series of workforce development activities, such as resum development and mock interviews. Most activities are completed through a Canvas non-credit course, created and monitored by the Director of Workforce Development. I lea ed ma hi g i j I ill be able ef he e Saint Joe Indy student 3h ha f m life.

- ... Integration of Virtual Microscopy Podcasts in Histology Discipline: Learning Outcomes Sumathilatha Sakthi Velavan and Sarah Zahl Division of Biomedical Sciences, Marian University College of Osteopathic Medicine At Marian University College of Osteopathic Medicine (MU-COM), Histology (microscopic anatomy) is integrated with other disciplines. The DO curriculum includes virtual microscopy using Digital Slidebox DSB , rather than traditional microscopy. Outcome Introduction The survey yielded an overall response rate of 49%. The Classes of 2022, 2021 & 2020 represented 39.75%, 37.66% and 22.59% respectively. The majority of respondents (84.81%) viewed the podcasts 1-2 times/ topic. Average Exam Performance in Histology: C2020 (76.07%); C2021 (82.33%); C2022 (In progress) All respondents rated the quality of the podcasts as Excellent or Good. This indicates a strong relationship between student confidence in the histology content and actual performance on these topics on examinations. Further, this increase directly corresponds to the increase in the number of histology podcasts between the two cohorts (2-5 courses). Instructional need: An innovative teaching method that is more conducive to independent Histology learning was required due to the following reasons: Diverse background of DO students, many lacking a Histology framework led to students perception of difficulty with microscopic images. Integrated Histology teaching and lack of exclusive laboratory hours necessitates assimilation of the content with other medical knowledge. The DO program is designed to facilitate the seven core competencies enunciated by the NBOME. Competency in Histology discipline is a component of the third learning outcome of the achievement of Medical Knowledge. Method: Short narrative podcasts of digital microscopic slides were created and provided to the students as a supplementary Histology resource. Almost 60 podcasts were created using the software, Camtasia. The recordings were uploaded to the Panopto recordings folder of the integrated courses. The Podcasts made me feel more confident about the Histology content of the examinations. 1.15% 2.30% 1.15% 4.60% While 80.65% of the Class of 2022 strongly agreed that podcasts enabled more efficient study time, this was 72.55% for the Class of 2020. This is an interesting finding, particularly due to the increase in the amount of podcasts between the 2 cohorts (2-5 courses). Relationship between e ponden elf-reported ability to utilize the podcasts to help them remember key information and the average number of times they viewed the podcasts per topic: The class of 2020 had access to the podcasts in two courses, and the class of 2021 in five courses. The class of 2022 is currently using the podcasts. Research: Students perception of the virtual microscopy podcasts was analyzed using a voluntary and anonymous survey. The study is in progress, and the overall class performance in the Histology discipline is being analyzed using the Examsoft reports. Cohort differences emerged when comparing student performance averages on Histology content on examinations. Students in the Class of 2021 performed 6.26% higher than the Class of 2020. The self-reported confidence in histology content (as a result of DSB podcasts) is also higher for the Class of 2021. Interestingly, the self-reported ability was strongest for the respondents who averaged two (2) viewings per topic. The self-reported ability to remember key information was lower for those students who averaged 3 or more viewings per topic. Discussion The virtual microscopy podcasts comprise an innovative Histology laboratory manual and this tool enhances Histology learning and aligns with the institution s learning outcome. Evidence exists to support virtual microcopy to be a superior pedagogical tool and is preferred by learners over light microscopy [1]. A Histology prelaboratory talk, using glass or virtual slides to show relevant structures live, has been shown to enhance learning [2]. Unlike the live pre-laboratory talks, the virtual microscopy podcasts are available on Canvas and the students could watch them as many number of times as needed. The differences among the study groups indicated a positive association between the podcasts viewing and efficient utilization of study time, confidence about the Histology content and the class performance. Overall, the podcasts were found to be beneficial by the students and they were often used as pre-exam review material. A summary of students feedback and academic performance will help us understand the significance of integrating multimedia with Histology teaching. The study will also facilitate planning a curricular modification when needed. References 1. Wilson AB, Taylor MA, Klein BA, Sugrue MK, Whipple EC, Brokaw JJ. 2016.

ENG 180 Marian Colle e s Women of Color Firsts s-1970s) Summer 2020 -- Research and Writing Seminar Course Shelia Antley Counts, PhD A Celebration of Teaching at Marian University Wednesday, January 8, 2020 THE BACKGROUND On July 9, 2019, Marian University welcomed its inaugural class of Sai J e h C llege f Ma ia U i e i Indianapolis a small but mighty group of students representing a broad spectrum of racial and ethnic groups and hailing from lands as far away as El Salvador and Honduras. With more than 70% of its incoming class representing racial minority groups, SJI is indeed a majority-minority two-year college. Given the history of Marian College, should this seem so unusual? As I was walking through the basement hallways of the University's library early on the morning of Friday, August 23, 2019 (I remember the date because it was prior to an All-Faculty Meeting.), I perused more closely the black and white photos of Marian College graduates from the earliest decades of the college. Marian College came out of an early educational institution started by German immigrant Sister Theresa Hackelmeier, one of the founding Sisters of the Order of St. Francis of Oldenburg, IN, back in the early 1850s. It was originally created so that women could learn how to be teachers. The school became Marian College in 1936, opening in Indianapolis in 1937. And almost from the first, it welcomed students of all races, creeds, and ethnic origins. I learned that day from closely examining the facial features, hair textures, and surnames of these early women -- that Marian College graduated its first Black woman student (Sister Sarah Page, OSF) as early as 1949! (My alma mater in South Carolina Clemson University -- didn't admit its first Black student -- Harvey Gantt -until 1963!). There were also women with Spanish-appearing and other ethnic surnames, and early research reveals that women from Puerto Rico, the Philippines, Cuba, Japan, Thailand, etc., all attended and graduated from Marian College. The first Black man to graduate Marian -- A.E. Reeves -- graduated in 1959. THE PROJECT > Research-Based: Working with primary sources, including historical documents from the period like those highlighted here, students will research the time period, Indianapolis hi , Ma ia C llege ea l history, and the history of the Catholic church and Black e le lace i hi he church. THE PROCESS ENG 112 Spring 2020 Annotated Bibliography -- Students will be introduced to the project by reading historical documents, including Sister Claire Whalen 1966 dissertation which explored Marian C llege history from 1937-1962, and books and articles by Drs. Jim Divita and Bill Doherty, Marian professors of history emeriti. They will create an annotated bibliography of important information gleaned from these source materials. ENG 112 Spring 2020 Dialogic Inquiry Students will engage in a dialogue with invited guest speakers, including at least three former professors and students who authored primary source documents, about their recollections of the earliest days of Marian College in Indianapolis, the progressive spirit of the Sisters of Oldenburg, the tenacity required to open up a college to all who sought education beyond high school, and the challenges faced. ENG 180 Summer 2020 Investigative Journalism Students will learn how to properly examine historical documents, including editions of The Phoenix, Marian C llege newspaper, from the time period. An investigative journalist will be invited to share her expertise with us. ENG 180 Summer 2020 Interviews/Biographical Sketches With the assistance of the MU Library staff, and the Office of Alumni and Parent Engagement, students will reach out to the family and friends of these earliest graduates, requesting interviews and contemporaneous sources of information in an effort to craft biographical sketches of as many Marian Women of Color Firsts as possible. SPRING 2021 Students will make Poster Presentations of their findings at the Center for Teaching and Learning Research Symposium. THE IMPACT Beyond the original intent of this project, which was to demonstrate to SJI students Norma Lewis Cummings (1929-2014) that they have a rightful place Marian College Class of 1951 here at Marian University, this > Writing-Focused: Working in pairs, project now potentially will students will bring the stories of some also serve as a timely reminder f Ma ia C llege ea lie me f to all members of Marian color graduates to life, so that our University of the College s students will know that their own educational path is not uncharted.
