Research Talk - Today, 2/16

by COEHD Faculty Research

Good morning. Apologies for the very late notice on this, but I just received the following information and wanted to share for anyone who is interested. It was developed for the Data Science RIG, but intersects with our interests in COEHD. Announcement: MSS Research Talk Feb. 16 Research Seminar Series “Stopping the Revolving Door: An Empirical and Textual Study of Crowdfunding and Teacher Turnover” Thursday, Feb. 16 2 – 3 p.m. Virtual meeting: https://utsa.zoom.us/j/98500741960 Samantha Keppler Assistant Professor of Technology and Operations University of Michigan Stephen M. Ross School of Business Abstract Organizations that provide better worker support have better worker retention. In K–12 public education, teachers commonly feel unsupported by their schools and districts as a result of the gap between top-down, one-size-fits-all resource allocation models and teachers' individual resource needs. In this study, we examine whether a recent trend in education—teacher crowdfunding platforms—effectively fills this gap and improves retention. We construct a novel dataset connecting teachers' employment data to their actions on the largest teacher crowdfunding platform, DonorsChoose, over a five-year period (2013-2014 to 2018-2019). We integrate textual analyses of teacher-written descriptions and empirical analyses of teacher turnover and attrition to provide the first evidence that crowdfunding improves teacher retention. We find funded projects on DonorsChoose significantly reduce attrition (leaving the public school system) rates of funded teachers by 1.7 percentage points (pp). Our textual analyses reveal that the effect on retention varies among projects. Resources which more substantially help teachers enact their professional identities as teachers by personalizing their classrooms (i.e., furniture and classroom environment resources) and/or their teaching pedagogy (i.e., through a more creative use of resources) have the strongest effect: They significantly reduce both the likelihood a teacher leaves their current school (by 1.7–3.6 pp) and the likelihood a teacher leaves the public school system (by 1.8–2.4 pp). Our findings speak to the potential role of identity-relevant physical resources, and the new financial technologies that enable access to them, for improving worker retention more broadly. Bio Samantha Keppler is an Assistant Professor of Technology and Operations at the University of Michigan Stephen M. Ross School of Business. Her expertise is in the application of operations management theories to the education sector. Her research derives insights about how to improve education operations, or the management of human and material resources in public schools, educational nonprofits, and edtech companies. Professor Keppler earned her PhD in Industrial Engineering and Management Science from the McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science at Northwestern University. Prior to pursuing her PhD, she was a public high school math teacher for three years in the Bronx, New York.

February 2023 Research Development & Grant Writing Newsletter

by Iwan Notowidigdo

Greetings Colleagues, I am forwarding the February 2023 Research Development & Grant Writing Newsletter by Academic Research Funding Strategies, LLC. The newsletter is provided through a subscription by the Office of the Vice President for Research, Economic Development, and Knowledge Enterprise (REDKE) solely for the use of the UTSA community. Although you may share it with your students, please do not post it on a public website or disseminate it outside the UTSA community. In this issue (from ARFS): February 2023 Select List of Humanities, HSS, and Arts Opportunities & News – We list funding opportunities for scholars in the humanities, social sciences and the arts. Who is Winning Humanities Funding and Why? – We discuss four winning NEH proposals and what makes them effective. What Exactly Are Societal Challenges – NSF’s funding opportunities are increasingly focused on addressing societal challenges, but what do they mean by that? We discuss the Using the Rules of Life to Address Societal Challenges program as an example of what NSF is looking for when they use that term. NSF S-STEM Webinar Report – We discuss the highlights of NSF’s recent webinar on the new solicitation for the Scholarships in STEM (S-STEM) program. The Context and Significance of Your Research – The key to funding is convincing your funder that your research will have a significant impact on the funder’s mission and priorities. We discuss how to do that. Changes to the AFRI Foundational Program 2023 – USDA/NIFA just posted the new AFRI Foundational and Applied Science Program RFA. We discuss changes to the program. Too Much To Say? Strategies to Meet the Page Limit – Getting your project narrative under the page limit is often a struggle. We discuss ways to do that without compromising your message (reprinted from the August 2020 issue). Cultivating Grantsmanship Among Humanities and Social Science Graduate Students – We discuss why you should teach your humanities graduate students how to compete for funding and how to go about it (reprinted from the May 2021 issue). The Role of Stakeholders in a Competitive Proposal – Many funders expect you to have a strong plan to engage stakeholders. We discuss those expectations (reprinted from the July 2020 issue) If you would like to discuss any of the information in the newsletter in preparation for a grant submission, please let me know. Thank you. --Iwan Mr. Iwan Notowidigdo Senior Grant Development Manager The University of Texas at San Antonio College of Education & Human Development (COEHD) iwan.notowidigdo(a)utsa.edu (Mobile: 347-231-5931) Regular Office Hours NEW Mondays at 3 PM CST No advanced registration necessary https://utsa.zoom.us/j/92065601904 or schedule an appointment with me through Calendly https://calendly.com/iwan-notowidigdo/30min [cid:6c8a806b-139f-49e2-aebf-7007aef1b076]
