  • Dr. Sedigheh Sedi Minachi: "Dr. Minachi examined the narratives of Palestinian and Israeli peace educators who use dialogue among their students and community members to create a culture of peace. This study provided an understanding of how peace educators challenge conflict situations in ways that aim to transform the recognition of the other in their polarized societies." (November 2011)
  • Dr. Leyton Mark Schnellert: "Dr. Schnellert studied the challenges of designing and facilitating teacher professional development that bridges theory and practice. Findings illustrated how situated, sustained, collaborative and inquiry-oriented professional development helps teachers develop practices and knowledge that enhance curriculum and learning for diverse students." (November 2011)
  • Dr. L.A. Pearl Hunt: "Dr. Hunt's research explores how music can advance progressive social change by helping individuals and collectives negotiate issues of sociocultural difference. Combining performing arts, cultural studies and theorizing of ethnography, this interdisciplinary set of essays point to the significant role that music can play in addressing peace, representation and social justice." (November 2010)
  • Dr. Mark Daley: "Dr. Daley argued that presumptions of the historical moral order in Western schooling effectively disjoin and diminish the voice and vocation of learners. In this theoretical work, "Prophetic speech" is counter-posed as a means for learners to access moral sources more innately one's own to recover transcendent possibility in education." (November 2010)
  • Dr. Betty Rideout: "Dr. Rideout's work investigated how religiously unaffiliated young adults critically evaluate meaning of life questions such as whether there is a soul and the significance of spirituality. Her study examined the current trend to choose spirituality over religion, and helped to demonstrate how one's tacit theory of knowledge influences one's ability to effectively justify and create complex, well-founded spiritual beliefs." (May 2010)
