Sagor, R. (2011). The action research guidebook: A four-stage process for educators and school teams (2nd Ed.). Thousand Oaks, CA: Corwin. Pp. 224

It is a rare school or district that hasn’t developed a vision and mission statement, backed-up by a strategic plan. Those things are important, but inspiring words and elaborate plans are not what make an organization successful; rather, what makes a real difference in school performance are the routine habits of adult behavior that are consistent with an organization’s core values. (Sagor, 2011, p. 192)

OF DISSERTATION BUILDING TEACHER EFFICACY: CHALLENGES OF CREATING COMMUNITIES OF PRACTICE AMONG NEW TEACHERS AND VETERAN TEACHERS IN A TOXIC WORK ENVIRONMENT Recently, changes in graduation requirements in some states have made it more important than ever for students to be literate in all content areas. State assessments not only measure student academic ability, but they are a necessary component of graduation from high school. After completing required courses, students are expected to take assessments covering the content of those courses. In order to safely meet the graduation requirement, students must score at least 3 points per assessment on a 5-point scale. This has proven difficult for over 50% of students expecting to graduate. Students at Midwestern-American High School (MAHS) have been struggling to achieve the required minimum scores on the state achievement assessments, as have many others in the region. A review of the report card data for MAHS reveals the area of gr...

Professional development in the K-12 English Language Teaching (ELT) classroom is an evolving entity that focuses on meeting the needs of changing demographics and latest educational trends. As a result, many texts have been published with the intention of providing the necessary skills educators need for success in their classrooms and to instruct a highly heterogeneous English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) student population. Nonetheless, many of these resources focus on specific scenarios and instructional approaches that may not be applicable for all ESOL teachers. In this Perspectives article, I propose the incorporation of action research as a practice for K-12 teachers with the vision of empowering them to take control of their professional development and continue improving their instructional practices. Furthermore, I share three examples of how I have used action research in my own practice and the benefits obtained by my ESOL department, my ESOL students, and myself as a teacher-researcher.

Keeping Track of the Trump Criminal Cases

By The New York Times Updated July 15

Donald J. Trump is facing multiple legal challenges related to his business and political activities, with the cases expected to play out over the coming months in the midst of the 2024 election season. Here is a guide to the major criminal cases involving the former president.

Latest development July 15

Federal judge Aileen M. Cannon dismissed in its entirety the classified documents case against former President Donald J. Trump on Monday, ruling that the appointment of the special counsel, Jack Smith, had violated the Constitution. Mr. Smith’s team will almost certainly appeal the ruling.

Where Does Each Case Stand?

Mr. Trump is at the center of at least four separate criminal cases, at both the state and federal levels, into matters related to his business and political careers.

Federal Jan. 6 Case ›

Related to Mr. Trump’s efforts to retain power after the 2020 election and the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. Expand summary +

Election Case in Georgia ›

Related to efforts to reverse Mr. Trump’s 2020 election loss in Georgia. Expand summary +

Classified Documents Case ›

Related to Mr. Trump’s handling of sensitive government documents he took with him when he left office. Expand summary +

Manhattan Hush-Money Case ›

Related to payments to cover up a sex scandal during the 2016 presidential campaign. Expand summary +

What Are the Charges Against Trump?

Mr. Trump faces dozens of counts across the four cases in which he has been charged.

Federal Jan. 6 Case

Election case in georgia, classified documents case, manhattan hush-money case, who are the prosecutors in each case.

Jack Smith was appointed by Attorney General Merrick B. Garland in November to investigate two federal cases against Mr. Trump: his attempt to overturn the 2020 election and his retention of classified materials. Two cases against Mr. Trump at the state level are led by district attorneys in New York and Fulton County, Ga.

Jan. 6 Case, Classified Documents Case

Special counsel

Fani T. Willis

Fulton County district attorney

Alvin L. Bragg

Manhattan district attorney

What Comes Next?

Mr. Trump has been indicted in four inquiries, with the cases unfolding as he runs for president again. In the first case to reach a verdict, related to hush money paid to cover up a sex scandal around the 2016 presidential election, Mr. Trump was found guilty on all 34 counts. He is expected to appeal.

Jan. 6 Case

Investigation began, charges filed, case dismissed.

Alleged crime took place in 2017. Investigation began in 2018.

Trial began

Due to a technical error, an earlier version of a graphic with this story showed an incorrect date for the start of the hush-money investigation. It was 2018, not 2019.

10 Ways to Be More Inclusive and Learn About Diversity Within Disability

For Disability Pride Month, The Trevor Project is proud to partner with Easterseals, one of the nation’s leading providers of life-changing disability and community services for over 100 years. Easterseals actively lobbied for the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act in 1990, which expanded protections to people with disabilities to prohibit discrimination in everyday activities like employment, transportation, education, and recreation.  

Disability Pride Month started in 1990 following this landmark legislation and continues to celebrate the milestones toward equity within the disability community — it’s also a month that challenges the outdated and harmful idea that people with disabilities do not belong in society.  

Disability Pride Month is not about loving your specific disability and its symptoms all the time. Disability Pride is about accepting that you are not “less than” because of your disability. Celebrating Pride is about sharing stories and perspectives within the community, which helps to create a space where we can exist without shame. 

How can we all celebrate Disability Pride Month? A great starting point is self-education, even if you’re disabled. Consider these ten ways to be more inclusive and learn about diversity within disability. 

• 1. Seek out authentic disabled voices in media, whether it’s reading Eddie Ndopu’s Sipping Dom Perignon Through a Straw , or watching disabled content creators on YouTube, like Squirmy and Grubs or Roll with Cole and Charisma .
• 2. Remember that when you meet one person with a disability, you’ve met one person with a disability. Identity is not a monolith! 
• 3. Recognize that disabled people lead full lives and can be in romantic relationships, pursue higher education, or live interdependently. Having high support needs does not disqualify you from any of the above. The Easterseals podcast Everything You Know About Disability is Wrong highlights the everyday lives of disabled people.
• 4. Understand intersectional identities exist within disability, like being BIPOC or queer, which can impact individual needs and experiences. Understanding intersectionality can lead to more inclusive spaces.
• 5. Know that disability is different for everyone. Not every wheelchair user is unable to walk. Someone with a mental illness may not have an apparent disability. Two people who both have Cerebral Palsy may have very different presentations of their disability.   
• 6. How someone relates to their disability is also different for everyone. Some folks may use “person with a disability” to describe themselves, while others might prefer “disabled person.” And some people don’t have a preference! To be an ally requires respect and curiosity about how someone wants to refer to themselves.
• 7. Believe that disabled people are experts in their own experiences and needs. Listen to disabled people when they share new information and avoid offering uninvited suggestions for managing someone else’s disability. 
• 8. Be open to a person’s disability and how their accessibility needs can change over time. Disability is not static, and making space for someone’s needs at any time can be a powerful way to demonstrate inclusion and respect. 
• 9. Know that much of what has been presented in the media and on screen about disability is not correct. Take interest in understanding disabled people in your everyday life rather than focusing on stereotypes in the media. 
• 10. Ask your friends about their disability and their disability pride! Create a space where disability can be talked about without judgment or shame. Let your disabled friends know you care to understand their identity. 

The Trevor Project’s Guide to Supporting LGBTQ+ Young People with Disabilities is an additional resource that offers ways to further that self education and foster inclusion. Remember that education is not a destination, but a practice we can continue to build on indefinitely. 

Happy Disability Pride Month!
