Student History Research Symposium is April 18 at SMU

Seniors from five area universities will present the results of their historical research at the Student History Research Symposium on Saturday, April 18, at Saint Mary’s. The event — free and open to the public — is sponsored by the history departments of the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, Saint Mary’s University, Viterbo University, and Winona State University.

In addition to the student presenters, Dr. Kendall Staggs, lecturer in history at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, will speak on “The Politics of Foreign Oil Dependency: A Historical Perspective.”

Each school asks senior history majors — and at Winona State, law and society majors — to write a senior thesis based on their original research of a historical question of their own choosing. In this way, the students actually do the work of historians, and in the process, deepen their research, writing and speaking skills.

All symposium sessions will be held on the third and fourth floors of Saint Mary’s Hall. The symposium opens at 9 a.m. in Salvi Lecture Hall (Room 332) with a short welcoming ceremony and coffee. Students will present their research in concurrent panels of three students each. The first panel session starts at 9:15 a.m., the second at 10:45 a.m. Dr. Staggs’s talk will start around noon and will be accompanied by a complimentary lunch.

For information, contact Dr. Tycho de Boer, at Ext. 6995 or tdeboer@smumn.edu.

Professional Conference on Teacher Inquiry April 18-19

“Growing by Giving” is the thematic focus for the Master of Education in Teaching and Learning’s annual conference at Champlin Park High School April 18-19.

Approximately 600 learners in the M.Ed. Program from across the state of Minnesota and Wisconsin will come together for two days of shared learning. Participants will be given the opportunity to explore the fruits of applied inquiry into the use of strategies that support student learning and development. The conference provides an opportunity to deepen participants’ understanding of their practice, explore ways to use classroom-based action research, and to develop instructional habits of mind that improve student learning and promote the well being of all learners.

During the two-day conference, participants will attend a total of six sessions. Six sessions will be seminars following a forum, round table, or Socratic seminar format. Here, participants will experience learning seminars grounded in action research sharing, with seminar leaders communicating both an understanding and application of strategies being applied in their classroom. A seventh session will bring teachers of like grade, subject matter, and curricular interests together for a time of sharing new strategies and developing possibilities for future collaboration.

Each seminar at the conference will be led by a second year M.Ed. Program participant. Each leader will facilitate a seminar engaging participants in active learning and dialogue focused on instructional problem solving. Ultimately, the conference is designed to facilitate teacher efforts to realize their personal visions and goals through opportunities to gain relevant information, engage in instructional exploration through dialogue, and renew the purpose that fuels their passion for teaching.

Anyone who may be interested in more information about the conference or who may wish to attend should contact Suzanne Peterson, program director, at Ext. 6615 or at speterso@smumn.edu.

Geheren family thanks SMU community

The following letter was written to the Saint Mary’s community by the Geheren family, this year’s recipients of the Taylor Richmond Benefit Dance.

We wanted to write to try and express our appreciation for everything you did for us over the past weekend. As beneficiaries of the ninth annual Taylor Richmond Benefit Dance, our lives have truly been touched. We already felt blessed that we have been able to adopt three beautiful children (in addition to the one we raised at SMU), but to be associated with such a special event is remarkable.

The eight plus years we spent in Winona as students and employees of Saint Mary’s have been the most influential time we have had. Our values and family ideals were created on campus. All of the wonderful teachers, staff, hall directors, friends and co-workers we had the opportunity to meet, helped us grow into the people and family we currently are. We will always be grateful for the influence Saint Mary’s has had on us as we try to live Lasallian lives.

The benefit was an eye opener for us. As we have mentioned, we do not see what we are doing as anything special. We wanted more children and believed that we were capable of being caretakers for children with special needs. Last weekend opened our eyes to the possibility that maybe we can influence others to do things that seem small in our lives but can have a bigger impact in the world.

The benefit itself is a wonderful event that is supported by the university. In addition to supporting a wonderful family in the Richmonds, there are many other people and families associated with Saint Mary’s that receive a great benefit as well. I know our entire extended family was very positively affected by the entire experience. Also, the benefit is a great opportunity for all of the students who participate in the planning an execution of the event. We hope and pray that Saint Mary’s will continue to support this fantastic cause.

Finally, we would like to say that we have never been more proud to say we are graduates of Saint Mary’s University. We hope that someday we can help “pay it forward” to other Saint Mary’s families and that everyone at SMU understands the profound impact they had on the Geheren family.

Love, the Geherens — Bill, Mia, Michael, Tommy, Charlie and Danny

Pattee presents paper about Darfur genocide

Dr. Steve Pattee, associate professor of Interdisciplinary Studies, presented a paper titled “ ‘Why Should I Care?’ Responding to the Genocide in Darfur” at the Upper Midwest Regional Meeting of the American Academy of Religion and Society of Biblical Literature. At the same meeting, he was appointed the regional program coordinating officer for the region.

Bodsgard publishes article on decontamination materials

Dr. Brett Bodsgard, Department of Chemistry, had an article published in Dalton Transactions titled “Silica-bound copper(II)triazacyclononane as a phosphate esterase: effect of linker length and surface hydrophobicity” (Dalton Trans., 2009, 2365–2373). The article details the study of a family of insoluble copper-containing materials that may be useful in the decontamination of chemical warfare agents.

SMU faculty’s research accepted for presentation

Dr. Roger Peckover, Suzanne Peterson, Pat Christiansen, and Brenda Fischer, members of the Development Team of the Master in Teaching and Learning Program (M.Ed.), have had their research accepted for presentation at the 2009 Annual Meeting of the America Research Association in San Diego.

The paper titled, “Building Teacher Capacity for ‘Disciplined’ Self Study,” reports results of an ongoing programmatic case study of developing teachers’ capacity for using principles of social constructivist learning and discipline based structures of knowledge to build transformative communities of inquiry. The goal of this particular professional development program is to nurture, across two years, teacher capacity to become collaborative inquirers integrating structures of content knowledge into their self-study practices in their teaching.

The program supports teacher development by giving them apprentice experiences in a community of fellow teacher inquirers characterized by a safe cohort in which to engage in classroom inquiry grounded in use of discipline-based structures of knowledge, collaborative problem solving, and mutual care. Results of ongoing programmatic study into how the design of such experiences impact teachers across two years reveal challenges in teacher understanding of discipline-based structures of knowledge and their integration into the process of classroom inquiry into student understanding of content knowledge. Ongoing longitudinal case study examination of teacher thinking and action is yielding insights into the challenges of teachers’ understanding of the structural nature of knowledge in their inquiry into how students learn in their classrooms. Implications for helping teachers understand the structures of knowledge in disciplines and their implications for classroom inquiry are discussed.
