Reaching At-Risk Students Through Video David H. Elkind and Freddy Sweet Ph.D. hat if you saw an elderly woman in a department store unknowingly drop a $50 bill and walk away. What would you do? This is one of many hypothetical situations we posed to several diverse groups of middle school students across the country during the production of our public television series "Big Changes, Big Choices." "I'd keep it," one boy said right away. A girl looked at him disdainfully and asked, "What if that was your grandmother?" The boy shrugged and said, "Too bad." The girl persisted, "But what if she didn't have any other money, and she would go hungry? The boy grimaced and another girl tossed her hair back and interjected, "Well, I'd keep it if I was the only person who saw it." Middle school students consistently responded in such an open and honest way, even when our dilemmas conflicted with their initial impulses. We videotaped these unrehearsed responses, which have since been viewed by hundreds of thousands of middle school students nationwide on television in their homes, and on video in the classroom. What made the taped discussion so engaging was that it included a lot of disagreement over whether or not to keep the $50 bill. Very quickly the entire debate came down to a discussion of right versus wrong. Those who favored keeping it offered a variety of rationalizations. Those who favored giving it back maintained that keeping it would be wrong. When asked how it feels when they realize they've done the wrong thing, the kids responded that "it's a bad feeling in the pit of your stomach," and "you wish you hadn't done it, and you look for a way to fix it." When asked how they know when they're doing the right thing, the kids replied that "you feel really good about yourself," and "it's a sensation that starts in your heart and then spreads out."

Home Index Search About MENC ... Contact Us Preface to From Research to the Music Classroom Music and Students at Risk: Creative Solutions for a National Dilemma This book represents six years of research into one of the most pressing problems in our society todaystudents at risk and how the arts can help. Behavior and conditions that define a child as at risk are part of a self-perpetuating cycle of failure across generations, a cycle of failure that often manifests itself through school dropouts. Participation in the arts in school can help at-risk youth break this cycle. The arts contribute something to the school-day environment other subjects cannot. This something, coupled with successful experiences in the arts, can encourage youth to stay in school and to succeed in other academic areas. By staying in school, at-risk students may have access to badly needed social services that are more difficult to obtain outside the school setting. Six years of research have convinced us that music and the arts really can make a difference in the lives of at-risk students and that those special qualities inherent in arts experiences can be very useful for intervention with troubled youth. All music and arts teachers should be aware of the research literature that points out the benefits of arts experiences. Because of the proliferation of problems throughout society, we must assume that all teachers will be faced with the challenge of motivating and educating at-risk youngsters. It is essential, therefore, that music teachers equip themselves with an arsenal of proactive teaching strategies, both from arts and nonarts programs, to use in their own teaching.

The importance of intrusive advising at-risk college and university students (i.e., students who: are ethnic minorities, are academically disadvantaged, have disabilities, are of low socioeconomic status, and are probationary students) has been repeatedly emphasized in the professional literature. Intrusive advising strategies are typically used with at-risk students, and are special techniques based on prescriptive, developmental, and integrated advising models. Numerous benefits to using intrusive advising are noted, along with examples of strategies used with five at-risk groups. Recommendations for college and university advisors include the need for a comprehensive plan that addresses intrusive advising, adequate faculty and advisor training, web supports for targeted students, development of comprehensive databases for managing student data, and ongoing research to evaluate intervention effectiveness.

S chool I mprovement R esearch S eries (SIRS) Research You Can Use Topical Synthesis #1 Effective Schooling Practices and At-Risk Youth: What the Research Shows Greg Druian and Jocelyn A. Butler WHAT IS THE QUESTION? There is today a growing consensus that the characteristics of effective schools can be identified and described. An emerging question is "How widely can these characteristics be applied?" Recent studies, for instance, cite the efficacy of effective schooling practices with American Indian programs and in Title I programs. The question of effective, high-quality education means many things to many peoplesome would like our young people to be better educated in the "basic skills"; others are concerned that schools prepare "technologically literate" youth; and still others want schools to be places where kids learn discipline, citizenship and positive democratic values. while all of these concerns are serious, an even deeper and more pervasive concern is whether we as a nation are going to fulfill the promise that all young people will receive a quality education. For many researchers, the problem of who will receive an education is as important as the problem of how to bring about excellence in education. Some disturbing findings have surfaced:

Extending Learning Time for Disadvantaged Students - Volume 2 Profiles of Promising Practices - 1995 A r c h i v e d I n f o r m a t i o n The Summer Institute for At-Risk Migrant Students Florida Department of Education. Tallahassee, Florida Key Characteristics Residential program Highly individualized Overview The Summer Institute for At-Risk Migrant Students, a residential program sponsored by the Florida Department of Education, provides six weeks of intensive coursework and tutoring for 330 to 350 students. The institute, which evolved from a 1985 pilot project, is held at three Florida universities and targets middle and high school students as well as dropouts. Its goal is to help migrant students compensate for absences and partial credits, stay in school, and obtain a high school diploma. Participants work with guidance counselors to develop individualized goals for the summer, typically focusing on completing a specific credit toward promotion or graduation, or on remediation in reading, math, and other subjects. School Context This statewide program draws students from schools with high concentrations of migrant students. In 1992-93, the 330 participating students came from more than 80 schools and 30 different school districts. The number of participants varies each year, based on available funding. Most (83 percent) of the students are Hispanic; 11 percent are African American, 4 percent are Asian American (primarily Vietnamese), and 2 percent are Anglo. Participants are in grades 6-12, or are dropouts.
