14. Women's Contributions to the Leading Journals in Instructional Technology, 1995-2000.

Author

Foley, Anne L. and Morgan, Janet

Abstract

This study examines the articles from current journal literature in the field of instruction/educational technology to ascertain the number of articles written by women each year and the content that women are addressing in their articles. A previous study of the journal literature (Foley, Gurney, & Branch, 1994) examined women's contributions to the literature from 1988-1992. Both the current and previous analyses used method similar to Ely's work in analyzing the literature of the field (Ely, 1996). This study uses an analysis of the optics of articles to develop themes found in the literature and compares these to the trends and issues identified by Ely (1996) and Molenda, Russell, & Smaldino (1998). Finally, this study takes a critical look at these articles from a feminist perspective in regard to gender issues. (Contains 12 references.) (Author/AEF)

15. Trailers and tribulations : crime, deviance and justice in the Gypsy and Traveller community

Author

Foley, Anne

Subjects

Abstract

Through a primarily ethnographic approach that also consisted of fifteen interviews with members of the Gypsy and Traveller community and eleven interviews with key-stake holders, this research explores how Gypsies and Travellers deliver justice within their community by developing a greater understanding of their moral codes and their relationship with, and recourse to, official agents of social control. The research shows that the Gypsy and Traveller community adhere to a strict moral code. This at times conflicts with the values held by the wider British society. This has meant that the Gypsy and Traveller community have had to adapt to their environment, becoming bricoleurs; drawing on some facets of the dominant British society while at the same time other aspects are rejected and replaced with their own cultural values. Crime is understood through the notion of harm, and techniques of neutralisation are applied to attitudes of crime and deviance. The research also highlights how informal community justice is operated through a system of restorative justice. Through the use of shame, those who transgress the moral boundaries become reintegrated into the community. However, the severity of some offences is so great the only course of action is the exclusion of the individual. Here shame becomes disintegrative. The community have very limited recourse to official agents of social control. This in part is due the lack of legitimacy seen by Gypsies and Travellers in the policing of their community.

18. An Analysis of the Scholarly Contributions of Women Instructional Technology Professionals.

Author

Foley, Anne L.

Abstract

Gender differences in the field of instructional technology were investigated to determine their effects on female students and specifically on the scarcity of scholarly contributions by women to the field as well as the lack of research studies on women's contributions The following issues were examined to determine the status and interests of women in the field: (1) the number of women currently in the field in the United States; (2) the number of publications by women in the leading journals of the field; and (3) the topics of these publications. Through content analysis, 78 categories of topics were selected, and 11 journals were identified as important in instructional technology, and reviewed for 1988 through 1992. In the past year, the Association of Educational Communication and Technology counted 1,632 members identifiable as women by their names (about 40% of the membership). There were 702 articles written by women in the period studied, with the most frequent topics being computer use, instructional design or development, and training. Although this study is preliminary and raised many questions for further research, it is felt that these findings help to illuminate the question of the number of women in the field and the content of their written publications. (Contains 19 references.) (SLD)
