Making power visible: Business improvement districts and creative placemaking in Washington, DC
Business improvement districts represent a privatising urban governance instrument that visibly transforms urban landscapes. In the United States, the racialised impacts of business improvement districts require examination. Through a discussion of Washington, DC, a city profoundly injured by racist planning histories, we illustrate how business improvement districts, as part of a broader entrepreneurial regime, have driven gentrification citywid…
The Nicest Kids in Town: American Bandstand, Rock 'n' Roll, and the Struggle for Civil Rights in 1950s Philadelphia
Over the past few decades scholars from numerous fields have sought to make sense of the multifaceted terrain of the black freedom struggle that flourished across the United States in the mid-twentieth century. In the past twenty-five years historians of the movement have made solid progress explicating the nuances of black insurgency and white resistance that have long defined the contours of the literature on the movement. In recent years schol…

The Effects of Ordinary and Coordinate Concept Nonexamples on First-Grade Students' Acquisition of Three Coordinate Concepts
Prior research indicates that nonexamples facilitate the acquisition of single concepts by preventing overgeneralization errors. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of ordinary and coordinate concept nonexamples on first-grade students' acquisition of three concepts. Sixty-seven subjects were randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups and were taught the coordinate concepts of land, air, and water pollution. Results of ANCO…
Effects of a Best Example and Critical Attributes on Prototype Formation in the Acquisition of a Concept
According to the traditional approach to concept formation, concepts are formed by learning a list of critical attributes. However, recent research indicates that students learn concepts by forming mental prototypes after being exposed to best examples. This study compared the effectiveness of the two approaches. One hundred and three undergraduates were randomly assigned to one of four treatment groups and taught the concept transfer propaganda.…
The Effects of Recycling and Response Sensitivity on the Acquisition of Social Studies Concepts
Findings from two studies that examined the effect of presentation order of examples and nonexamples on students' acquisition of concepts are reported. The first (Study I) compared the effect of a response-sensitive presentation (presentation order determined by the students' response) to a response-insensitive presentation (order predetermined and presented in random order). In addition, the effects of recycling missed instances were examined. T…
The Effects of Student Questions and Teacher Questions on Concept Acquisition
Previous research has failed to define clearly the effects of teacher questions on classroom achievment. Research on student questions has shown that students can be taught to ask questions, but the effects of those questions on achievement have not been determined. The purposes of the present study were to: (a) determine if students could be trained to ask questions which would increase their understanding of a social studies concept lesson; and…
Effects of Teacher Enthusiasm on Three- and Four-Year-Old Children's Acquisition of Four Concepts
This study tested the effects of three levels of teacher enthusiasm on 3- (n = 26) and 4- (n = 29) year-old children's acquisition of four concepts. Subjects were randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups (low, medium, high enthusiasm) by stratified randomization. The interactions of (a) age, (b)sex, and (c) age and sex with enthusiasm were examined, and informal observations concerning behavioral differences among treatment groups were …

The Effectiveness of Three Methods of Teaching Social Studies Concepts to Fourth-Grade Students: An Aptitude-Treatment Interaction Study
This study examined the effectiveness of three methods of teaching social studies concepts to fourth-grade students (Merrill & Tennyson’s model, Gagné’s model, and a reading-recitation method), tested two aptitude-treatment interactions, and tested three propositions concerning instructional designs for teaching concepts. Student achievement for the Merrill and Tennyson model was significantly (p < .001) greater than achievement reported for Gagn…

Four Types of Theory: Implications for Research in Social Education
The literature contains numerous suggestions for improving educational research. One of the most common is that research should generate, verify or in some other way be grounded in theory. Few studies in social education, however, are clearly theory-relevant, perhaps because training in educational research generally does not include formal study of the structure of theory. Zetterberg (1965) discusses four types of theory in sociology: Theory as …
