Ed.D. program alumni Janet Egiziano has accepted a position at CSU Channel Islands (CSUCI) as Director of their Thousand Oaks Campus/Associate Director MBA program effective February 14.  The position is through CSUCI's College of Extended Learning. In a unique organizational structure, CSUCI Extended Learning is housed in Academic Affairs and offers all of the University's graduate degrees. Not only is it highly visible,  it is also a "pet project" of the University president. In this role, Dr. Egiziano will not only direct and grow the Thousand Oaks campus, she will also lead an effort that will bring  and offer 6 undergraduate degrees to the campus of Santa Barbara Community College starting in fall 2011.

 

"The SFSU Ed.D. program laid the critical groundwork for success in this new position and gave me a level of credibility that my graduate degree did not. It challenged me academically, personally, and professionally. As a result, I feel fully prepared to tackle the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.  I am convinced that I would not have been given this new opportunity if I did not have my doctorate from SFSU."-- Janet Egiziano

Spotlight: Daus-Magbual to Present Findings at AERA 2011

magbualArlene Daus-Magbual (Ed.D Candidate), has been accepted to present her paper at American Educational Research Association. the paper is titled, Growing Our Own Hope:   Narratives of Critical Filipina/o American Educators Pipeline. The presentation is slated for a Symposium titled, "Asian-American Teachers' Negotiation of their Racial Identity as Critical Educators". AERA received more than 11,000 submissions this year, so it is a considerable honor to be accepted for a paper presentation.

 
Pin@y Educational Partnerships (PEP) is a pioneering educational program that focuses on 'growing our own' educators. PEP builds a pipeline of educators founded on the principles of education as a form of memory, imagination, self-determination, and social justice. From its humble beginnings as an outreach program, PEP continues to teach courses that introduces K-doctoral level students to Ethnic Studies, specifically rooted within the histories and experiences of Filipina/o and Filipina/o Americans.  PEP has also become a stepping-stone for many Filipina/o American undergraduate and graduate students to pursue paths toward teaching credential programs, graduate school, and doctoral programs.  The heart of the PEP program is to serve the needs of students in realizing their potential and providing a critical and political approach toward education that integrates a students' social, cultural, and historical identity within the process of learning. Arlene's paper provides a critical hermeneutical  and critical pedagogical exploration of identity, leadership and the expanding discourse of Filipina/o American Studies and the larger field of education.

Abstract
This symposium, a collaboration of university researchers, K-12 teachers, community leaders and K-12 students, presents four cases of youth civic agency in action. We take a sociocultural approach to our investigation that understands learning as changing participation over time in changing communities of practice. Specifically we examine how each site frames legitimate peripheral participation, how members become full participants, and the role that adults play in supporting youth development and social action. Through a combination of qualitative, quantitative and participatory research methods, our analysis of the four youth-centered projects reveals pedagogical and curricular strategies that encourage citizenship-as-practice and can be broadly applied across contexts both in classrooms and in extracurricular spaces to empower urban youth to revolutionary civic agency.
