Final Report: Self-Authorship Tasmia Moosani, Alyssa Muñoz, Collin Nail, Isabelle Wroblewski Seattle University SDAD 5400: Student Development Theory, Research & Practice Nov. 30th, 2017

Self Authorship • Our Definition: – A lifelong journey that shapes the beliefs, values, and overall identity development of an individual. Focused primarily on different developmental tasks students face every day, including: values exploration, making sense of previously learned information, navigating their individual path, and how to take steps along a certain path (Baxter Magolda, 2008).

Literature Review Synthesis • Community cultural wealth must inform practice (Abes & Jones, 2004; Magolda, 2004; Pizzolato, 2003; Torres & Hernandez, 2007; Walczak, 2008; Yonkers-Talz; 2004, Zaytoun, 2012; George Mwangi, C. A., 2015; Rios-Aguilar, C., & Kiyama, J.M., 2012; Zhang, P., & Smith, W., 2011).

• Creating spaces for underrepresented students (Magolda, 2004; Taylor & Hanes, 2008; Zaytoun, 2012; McKillip et al, 2013; Cook-Sather, 2007)

• Aspirational goals of underrepresented students (Pizzolato, 2003; Pizzolato, 2004; Winters, 2016; Zaytoun, 2012; Desmond, M., & Turley, R. N. L., 2009; Bennett, P., Lutz, A., & Jayaram, L., 2012; Wickrama, K. A., S., Simons, L. G., & Baltimore, D., 2012).

Recommendations 1. 2.

3.

Program beginning at middle school and extending up to the second year of college Students are placed in a program that continues from 6th grade up until 12th grade. This forms a community for students to be involved in and gives them the exposure to college going capital Family engagement beginning with their students → exposure to the program together 7

Recommendations Continued

Theories/Research: •

A consistent theme incorporated every year will be focused on Yosso’s CCW and Pizzolato’s self authorship theories.



Recommendation 1: – Magolda (2008): Helping students reach internal voices by removing external factors/voices beginning earlier. – Pizzolato (2003): High risk students do not have access to information on higher education. Recommendation 2: – Clasen (2006): “Programs for middle school youth need time to address normal adolescent issues, such as peer pressure, while concurrently addressing talent development and an academic orientation. Further, trust among staff, students, and teachers also takes time to develop”. Recommendation 3: – Perry, Liu & Pabian (2010): Parental career support along with teacher support had a significant direct effect on career preparation and desire to continue into higher education.

Group Reflection • Challenges: 1. 2.

Family Engagement incorporation Finding research utilizing and stating self-authorship

• Highlights: 1. 2.

Working together on this topic helped us define our own self authorship and bring our experiences together to create this project. Having the experience to put theory to practice and creating an action plan that could help the underrepresented students in the SUYI. 9

Conclusion • The term self-authorship can be defined in many ways and learning to be okay with that fluidity is key to supporting students on their journey. • Best practices are important and can be used to guide us but not should necessarily dictate the entire program. • Being aware of what opportunities are around us that can help support our program to avoid duplication of services. 10
