Web Based System

A unilateral decision was made by the Office of the Provost and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs, the Office of Academic Outreach and Support, and the Office of Academic Support and Retention (AS&R) to implement a pilot initiative for reporting, monitoring, and tracking excessive absenteeism during the Spring semester 2003. A Web-based system of notification was designed and provided to instructors for completion and submission. There were 216 students reported as having excessive absenteeism during the first six weeks of the spring semester. There were 78 instructors who submitted absenteeism reporting forms for 25 different courses. Ninety one students were successfully contacted by their advisors and responded. Of the students contacted and responded, 44 passed the course, 33 failed the course and 14 dropped the course. The implementation of this pilot study demonstrated its effectiveness by reducing the number of students who would have dropped, or failed courses due to a lack of attendance. Students reported that they were surprised to learn that their attendance was being monitored and amazed that someone cared enough to contact them and offer guidance and assistance. Faculty and staff were surprised that attendance was being monitored and that student and faculty contacts were initiated, responded to and reported back to the instructor.

Psychology Of Liberation

AbstractOn November 16, 1989 the world was shocked by the news of the assassination of six Jesuits at the campus of the Universidad Centro Americana José Simeón Cañas (UCA) in San Salvador, El Salvador. Among those murdered by government soldiers was Ignacio Martín-Baró, a PhD in social psychology from the University of Chicago who at that time was the Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs and Vice-President of the Interamerican Society of Psychology (SIP). Drawing on Martín-Baró’s published writings and non-published academic papers and correspondence, this article traces the evolution of the Spanish-born Jesuit who became a leading authority among Latin American social psychologists. In particular, it analyzes his project of becoming a clinical psychologist under the influence of psychoanalysis, his critical social psychology aimed to “de-ideologize” the oppressed social classes of El Salvador, and his ultimate project of a psychology of liberation for Latin America. Martín-Baró’s work came to a tragic end just when it began to bear fruit, but it stands as a testimony to a lifetime committed to the human values of democracy, social justice and service to society’s poorest and most neglected.

Furthermore, 50% of the graduates of MAT program were supervisors, 8% were school heads, and 42% were classroom teachers. In the MAEd program, 34% were supervisors, 38% were school heads, and 28% were classroom teachers.
