Supporting educators and community partners through a variety of evidence-based professional development experiences.

"Our goal is to positively influence learning research, policy, and practice, through our mission."

Understanding the Links Between PK-16 Early Learning and Developmental Experiences

A secondary data analysis of the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study (birth and kindergarten cohorts) will be used to investigate questions about the impact of early educational and developmental experiences on children’s learning outcomes in subsequent years, with particular focus the development of achievement gaps. One primary goal is to explore how early experiences with caregivers and teachers vary by children’s demographic characteristics, such as gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and geographic context, and to measure the extent to which these experiential differences influence children’s development and academic achievement in subsequent years of schooling through middle school. Another project, will examine the extent to which learning experiences in early childhood have changed differentially for different groups over time, and if these changes in curriculum, intensity, and quality of educational experiences have influenced achievement gaps.

Unpacking Head Start Teachers Reflective Writing and Ideas about Children

A data analysis of the Project REWRITE Study, structured writing intervention focused on improving teacher well-being and effectiveness, will be used to explore Head Start teachers' attitudes and journaled reflections regarding a relationship with a challenging student. This project encompasses a variety of goals related to assessing the efficacy of the piloted writing intervention, revealing emergent themes regarding teachers' ideas about children, and exploring the utility of reflective writing to improve CLASS observation scores. This project will paint the picture of the challenging teacher-student relationship in early childhood education with the brush strokes of a group of Head Start teachers' efforts to improve their classroom interactions. Their stories illustrate their experiences and perceptions of challenging teacher-student relationships which are relevant at a time when teacher efficacy and retention are necessary for progress in early childhood education.

Exploration of the Longitudinal Effects of Test Anxiety on Educational Attainment and Aspirations

This secondary data analysis project explores longitudinal relations among perceived discrimination, academic self-competence, text anxiety, and academic performance among a diverse group of adolescents. For this project, longitudinal data are from three waves: (1) data collected when participants were in 8th grade; (2) data collected when participants were in 11th grade; and (3) data collected one year after high school.

Black Students Studying Together

The purpose of this study is to investigate the extent to which black students are utilizing peer groups of similarly identifying students to support their academic achievement. The odds are not in the favor of black students in our education system that continues to see a widening of the achievement gap. Through developmental interviews participants will have an opportunity to share how the peer group they associate with supports or doesn't support them in meeting academic expectations of being a college students.

Examining Blackness in Education: Personal, Behavioral and Environment Factors of Black Collegians – DeOnte Brown

This project explored the role of select personal, environmental and behavioral factors in supporting Black Collegians in attainment of educational outcomes.  More specifically, this study explored the Black collegians perceptions of their a) faculty’s culturally responsive teaching, b) institution’s inclusive practices, c) Black identity beliefs, d) community cultural wealth, e) career perspective and f) life perspective. Data collection includes Black Collegians form select public, historically white institutions in the southeast with analysis conducted through structural equation modeling (SEM).

Examining Early Childhood Teachers’ Perceptions of STEAM Instruction in Relation to Children’s Social Emotional Competencies – Amanda Bennett

This three-manuscript dissertation examined early childhood teachers’ perceptions and conceptualizations of STEAM instruction in relation to children’s burgeoning social emotional skills. The first qualitative study explored the impact of an early childhood teachers’ professional development workshop on STEAM education. The second manuscript proposed a novel conceptual framework integrating STEAM instruction and social emotional competencies in the early childhood classroom. Finally, the third mixed methods study explored early childhood teachers’ understanding and conceptualization of STEAM instruction in relation to children’s social emotional competencies.

Examining Intergenerational Relationships in the Family – Abby Stephan

This project is a three-manuscript dissertation currently being carried out by Abigail Stephan with support from Dr. Faiza Jamil. Published in the Journal of Intergenerational Relationships, the first paper, “Intergenerational Learning in the Family as an Informal Learning Process: A Review of the Literature,” evaluates learning experiences between adjacent and non-adjacent generations in the family against core components of structured intergenerational learning. The second paper, “Modern Grandparenting: Exploring Non-Adjacent Intergenerational Relationships in the Family,” explores the contemporary grandparent’s experience, role, and purpose in the family using a mixed methods approach. The third paper, “How Grandparents Inform Our Lives: A Mixed Methods Investigation of Intergenerational Influence on Emerging Adults,” investigates the influence of grandparent relationship type, either recreational or custodial, during childhood and the role of intergenerational narratives on life satisfaction in emerging adulthood. The overall purpose of this collective work is to develop a deeper understanding of intergenerational relationships within the family context, with special consideration of experiences and wellbeing outcomes for non-adjacent generations. 

Academic Opportunities for Military-Connected Students – George McKown

This project uses bioecological system theory to organize existing work concerning military-connected children and families in an effort to understand the various assets and constraints that the military lifestyle may have on children’s academic development. Additionally, this project will use latent profile analysis to explore trends in academic development within the military-connected student community to better understand which military lifestyle demands may be protective or disruptive to students’ academic development. Finally, this study will use qualitative interviews with teachers, parents, and students in the military-connected community to more deeply explore the military-connected student experience. Taken together, the parts of this project will help to explore the complex relationships between military-connected students and their communities in order to guide the development and implementation of future interventions. 

Belonging in Engineering Undergrads – Robert O’Hara

In my work, I am seeking to better understand how classroom environments (i.e. structured learning environments) and identity, specifically racial and gender identity, influence or control the complicated relationship between sense of belonging and academic success within undergraduate engineering classrooms. I will draw on the experiences of individuals in classroom environments to demonstrate how environments, both individually and interacting with race and gender, create differences among students within those classrooms in an effort to use the results to influence how classroom environments are structured.

Faiza Jamil

Dr. Jamil (Ph.D., University of Virginia) is an associate professor of child development at Clemson University and the founder of the CLAD Lab. Her research follows two complementary strands: 1) understanding the underlying psychological processes – cognitive, social, and emotional – that influence teachers’ classroom behaviors and career decisions, and 2) understanding the ways in which teacher-child interactions influence children’s learning and development. More specifically, Dr. Jamil conducts research that leverages her expertise in measurement, assessment, and professional development to better understand and improve the educational experiences of teachers and students within these two broad strands. Dr. Jamil is program coordinator of the Learning Sciences Doctoral Program and an affiliate faculty member in Clemson’s undergraduate teacher education programs, to which she brings her own experiences as a K-12 teacher in three countries.
