Estevanico: Tracing the Footsteps of a Remarkable African Explorer  

In celebration of Black History Month, academics from around the world came to CSI on February 20, 2024 to share their research on the life, achievements, and significance of Estevanico, a truly extraordinary African explorer of the 16th century. History has recorded the name of Estevanico, as "the first great African man in America."  Estevanico, born in Morocco, became a folk hero in the folklore of Spain and a legend in New Spain. The conference helped to shed light on the incredible journey of Estevanico, who played a pivotal role in the exploration and mapping of the Americas during this era, despite facing unique challenges as an African slave.  Moroccan artwork, live music, and food were available post-conference.  Atendees were welcomed by President Timothy Lynch and Dean Ralf Peetz.  Scholars included: Dr. Abdeslem El Idrissi, lead organizer, H.E. Abdelkader Jamoussi, Dr. John Wing, Author Paul Schneider, Dr. Hsain Ilahiane, Dr. Anouar Majid, Dr. Chouaib Halifi, and H.E. Dr. Hassan Hami. Hon. Dr. Alfred B. Curtis, Jr, former CUNY Board of Trustee and Chair of Action and Planning Committee on Staten Island gave closing remarks and a vote of thanks. Moderators included Dr. Wilma Jones and Dr. Aleksin Ortega.  A bibliography of literary works about Estevanico can be found HERE.

The conference was a collaborative effort of organizers from the General Consulate of the Kingdom of Morocco, the Department of Biology and Center for Developmental Neuroscience, Department of History, Department of World Languages and Literatures, African and African Diaspora Studies Program; Black and Latino Urban Male Initiative, Center for Teaching, Learning, and Professional Development, Center for Global Engagement, and the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.

Experience Music through Movement Games: An Introduction to Dalcroze Eurhythmics 

A series of music and dance programs were facilitated by Dr. William Bauer on february 27, march 19, and April 9, 2024. The flyer for these event promoted the following: "Music moves us. So, to learn music through physical movement makes sense. In fact, it makes many senses: listening, of course, and seeing, too. But also, kinesthesia. When you sense music through your own body movements, you “proprioceive” it—you feel it inwardly, as a muscular sensation. In turn, by exploring the various ways music makes you feel, you discover ways to express musical sensations through your movements. You hear vigorously rhythmic music—a march, for example—and you step in time with the music, vigorously enacting the beat. You are learning through movement games that connect your actions, reactions, and interactions to the growing musical understanding you and others are forging. It's delightful!"  Attendees were encouraged to arrive dressed comfortably, and ready to kick off your shoes and move through the Dance Studio (where wearing shoes is not allowed).  Dr. William R. Bauer, has a Diploma, Advanced Studies in Dalcroze Eurhythmics and he is the Music Program Coordinator in the Department of Performing and Creative Arts at CSI.

Embracing and Incorporating New Literacies (Large Language Models (ChatGPT), Data Science, Ethical use of technology, etc.) into Your Courses: A Discussion

Professors Susan Imberman (Computer Science), Paolo Cappelleri (Marketing) and Mary Boland (English) offered a virtual discussion on how to be proactive educators given the challenge that new and emerging technologies bring to higher education.  Diving off the from the suggested summer reading book, Robot Proof: Higher Education in the Age of Artificial Intelligence, they shared ways to incorporate new literacies into our courses as well as the overarching curriculum.    

Robot Proof: Higher Education in the Age of Artificial Intelligence is available at the CSI Library as an e-Book. Although published in 2017, before large language models such as ChatGPT came to the forefront, Dr. Aoun’s arguments on how to prepare our students for the technological future are still applicable.  He lays the foundation for a new discipline, “humanics,” and argues that in addition to the “old” literacies of reading, writing, and mathematics, students also need to learn the “new” literacies: data literacy, technological literacy, and human literacy.

Transforming Your Classroom: Practicing Equity Through Active Learning 

“The learning process is something you can incite—literally incite—like a riot.” – Audre Lorde. 
 
How do we make the transition from the hierarchical, inequitable, output-driven academy we inherited from the nineteenth century to a higher education that empowers all students to be their own best selves, modeling a more democratic, flourishing, and just society? How do we make this transition in our own classrooms? In this interactive session, Christina Katopodis, co-author of The New College Classroom (Harvard University Press, 2022) with Cathy N. Davidson, presented what the latest science of learning tells us about inspiring, effective, and inclusive learning. Dr. Katopodis shared teaching strategies that anyone can adapt easily and effectively in every field. She provided case studies of self-care as student care; metacognition and world-readiness; the participatory syllabus; ungrading; anti-racist pedagogies; and grab-and-go activities that educators around the world are successfully using every day to ensure their students’ lifelong success—and to revitalize their own commitment to a better world.

Collaborative Learning to Foster Student Engagement 

Collaboration is critical both for student engagement and for career readiness.  Collaborative learning forces students (who might not participate) to engage with the material and work with others to pursue a common goal.  This presentation shared examples of how instructors can regularly engage students in group activities including collaborative writing projects, online group blogs, group research presentations, and peer editing. Each activity had different goals, building different skills and fostering unique forms of student engagement. Although students find the collaborative work challenging, in the instructor's end-of-term reviews, many list their collaborative activities as the highlight of the semester.  This workshop was presented by Maria Rice Bellamy, Department of English and Program in African and African Diaspora Studies.

Recognizing and Helping Students In Distress 

By nearly every metric, student mental health is worsening. During the 2020–2021 school year, more than 60% of college students met the criteria for at least one mental health problem, according to the Healthy Minds Study, which collects data from 373 campuses nationwide (Lipson, S. K., et al., Journal of Affective Disorders, Vol. 306, 2022). In another national survey, almost three quarters of students reported moderate or severe psychological distress (National College Health Assessment, American College Health Association, 2021).  The COVID-19 pandemic created an even greater need for free and accessible mental health services to students struggling with online learning and social isolation.  The CSI Counseling Center has a diverse staff of well-qualified, credentialed mental health professionals who provide direct services to students and consultation services to faculty and staff.  This presentation on February 28, 2023, covered the scope of CSI Counseling Center services, helped faculty and staff learn to recognize signs of student distress, and provided guidance on referring to the Counseling Center.​  The program was open to all full-time faculty, adjunct faculty, and professional staff.

The Afterlives of Willowbrook: A Teaching Diary

Hosu Kim, Associate Professor of Sociology

The year 2022 commemorated the fiftieth year of the national exposè on the decades-long neglect and abuse against residents at the Willowbrook State School (1947 – 1987).  In teaching Psychosocial Aspects of Disability on the College of Staten Island, I decided to focus my class on a multi-modal inquiry into the history of my home institution (College of Staten Island) – the inheritor of the Willowbrook State School.

Immediate background to this new initiative came from my own observation to a limitation over the past lessons of Willowbrook’s history in teaching. In learning about systematic neglect and abuse at Willowbrook, students responded in disbelief, pity and empathy. Those common responses were well-meaning, yet often, carry a double side of self-assurance and self-aggrandizement though this wasn’t the original intent. Feeling frustration at the deeply ingrained ableist responses toward the disabled, I set out to explore a connectivity of the campus between the past and the present of the campus and lives across.​

Integrating Computational Literacies in Teacher Education across the Disciplines

Ting Yuan, Liqing Tao, Marta Cabral, Steven Azeka, Alana Gibbons, Stephanie Schmier, and Rebecca Curinga, Department of Curriculum & Instruction

Our poster features how we - faculty at School of Education - experiment with equitable computational literacies across disciplines.

Recent research begins to inform how computational literacy can help build students’ traditional literacies (Jacob & Warschauer, 2018), leverage bilingual learners’ full linguistic repertoires (Ascenzi-Moreno et al., 2020; Vogel, et al., 2020), as well as cultivate preservice and in-service teachers’ computational thinking (Kong & Lai, 2022). However, little is known regarding teacher educators’ equitable practices of acquiring computational literacies in their courses in the higher education classroom (Kafai & Proctor, 2022). The digital and computational-literacy divide for U.S. college students, a gap between those who can and cannot access the Internet and computing education, has been worsened by remote learning during the COVID-19 pandemic (Jaggars et al., 2021). Such inequitable access has been found regarding gender, racial/ethnic group, and socioeconomic status. Thus, there is a need to understand what equitable teaching practices look like and how the critical dimensions of computing education can be addressed to empower students’ voice and identity in the teacher education classroom. This is an indispensable area of knowledge that can help us promote computational literacies in K-12 settings.

Guided by equity pedagogies, we present our teaching integration in computational literacies. In addition, we hope to share with the CSI audience regarding how teacher educators may better serve as the necessary lynchpin to address equitable learning by facilitating preservice teachers’ computing education across disciplines
