New Beginnings Letter from Dean Cordeiro

T

he start of each school year brings the promise of so much potential. The atmosphere of Hill Hall fills with excitement and the promise of new beginnings. This year is even more notable for me as I begin my six month sabbatical before returning to the SOLES faculty. And SOLES welcomes its fourth dean, Dr. Nicholas Ladany.

Over the past 17 years, we’ve made great strides together: We have celebrated more than 4,000 graduates, built a home for SOLES in Mother Rosalie Hill Hall, added eight new degree programs, and launched USD’s first online master’s degree program. We also founded nine centers and two institutes, created a new academic department, moved into the top 10% of graduate schools of education as ranked by US News and World Report and hosted the inaugural SOLES Jeffersonian Dinner. Five years ago we wrote a strategic plan, which we accomplished in three years. We then wrote another plan, that we have also surpassed, as you will see in the pages that follow.

As you likely know, global education is a passion of mine and I’m extremely proud of the work that

Letter from Dean Ladany SOLES has done to contribute to the international and cross-cultural education of our students and faculty. Since 2009, all SOLES degree students participate in an international experience through the Global Center as a requirement for graduation.

In addition, the Cordeiro Global Research Endowment Fund was established to support faculty and students conducting research on international themes or studying another language.

Continuing my commitment to global education, I am honored to now serve as the Dammeyer Distinguished Professor of Global Leadership and Education.

Serving as the dean of SOLES and working with the students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community has been a privilege and an honor. We have accomplished so much together.

Thank you for your continued support of SOLES. Please stay in touch!

I

’m thrilled to be at the University of San Diego and to serve as the Dean of SOLES. SOLES is a model school into which a traditional school of education can transform, and Paula Cordeiro has been an inspirational leader.

The strong commitment to multiculturalism and social justice; innovative programming; global engagement; and multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches to education are SOLES’ signature strengths.

I look forward to working with the talented students, faculty, and staff; the dedicated donors and partners; the highly accomplished alumni; and the supportive USD administrators, in leading the advancement of this tradition of excellence.

Kind regards, Nicholas Ladany, PhD Dean School of Leadership and Education Sciences University of San Diego @deanladany

Dean Ladany Introduction

Nicholas Ladany arrived as the new Dean of SOLES in July 2015. Watch the full video and read more about him at sandiego.edu/ solesdean

What first attracted you to SOLES?

What do you see yourself first diving into?

SOLES is a model school, and one that traditional education schools can transform into. SOLES is the future of schools of education. No longer can schools stay narrowly focused, such as only operate in relation to K-12 education. Rather they must be interdisciplinary

Of course the first phase of any new leader is to listen and learn. It’s also important to assess the current strengths and look for avenues of innovation. For example, strengthening the connection with the Catholic Diocese and the Catholic education community

and multidisciplinary.

And SOLES has done that. In addition, the strong commitment to multiculturalism and social justice is very compelling and fits with my professional and personal interests.

holds promise. The second potential area of innovation is creating further links to the international community. There’s a lot of work SOLES has done internationally and just seeing ways that we can strengthen those as well is very exciting to me.

Tell us something about you personally.

I’m very excited to be in San Diego. The weather is terrific. It’s nice to do a lot of outdoor things.

I’m looking forward to walking around campus and meeting people.

In particular, I’m looking forward to meeting the SOLES communitystudents, faculty, and alumni.

Strategic Directions In 2011-2012, the faculty, administration and members of the SOLES advisory board undertook a significant long term planning process which resulted in the SOLES Strategic Directions for 2012-2015.

In the final years of Dean Cordeiro’s leadership, SOLES surpassed all the goals laid out in this plan.

The four main initiatives in this plan are: addressing societal challenges, teaching excellence, intellectual influence and promoting sustainability. The following sections are dedicated to the progress made in each category.

Strategic Directions

Addressing Societal Challenges

As a prominent education and human services school we must confront important social justice issues.

SOLES’ strategic plans called for us to make an impact by expanding the reach of our centers and institutes and engaging the greater San Diego community. We have marshalled academic expertise from across the disciplinary spectrum, producing research and programming. We’ve made advancements in preparing students for the workplace of the 21st century, meeting the leadership and management needs of the nonprofit and public sectors, addressing the social-emotional needs of our community through clinical work, and addressing teaching and learning issues locally, nationally and globally.

First-of-its-kind Technology Needs Assessment of San Diego County Schools

The full report can be found at sandiego.edu/mtlc.

The Mobile Technology Learning Center (MTLC) completed a comprehensive study of technology use and availability in San Diego County school districts in February 2015. The study evaluated the availability of internet and technology devices, teacher training related to technology, and student use of mobile learning devices such as iPads and netbooks.

B

ased on findings from this first-of-its kind study, as a whole, San Diego County schools lack the classroom technology to consistently prepare students for the future.

Among the key findings from the study: •

Only 9% of high school students and 11% of middle school students have full-time access to a mobile device.*

•

Aging infrastructure and devices was reported as the greatest challenge among school districts (58%), followed by bandwidth (42%), and technology costs/lack of funding (24%).*

•

School districts cited professional development (teacher training) as their greatest need (47%), followed by devices (26%), infrastructure (21%), technical support (18%) and bandwidth (16%). *

Based on findings that one of the greatest needs for districts implementing technology is effective professional development for teachers, the MTLC is partnering with school districts around the county to provide strategic direction and support for the redesign of professional learning. The MTLC professional learning team supports leaders and teachers in developing active learning environments to maximize learning opportunities for students through the use of mobile technology using a student-centered approach. This approach fosters both effective technology integration and student critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration skills, in order to prepare students to be successful today and in their future education and careers. *School districts may have chosen more than one response.

Leadership Institute Building Capacity Throughout San Diego Established in 2001 to improve the study and practice of leadership so that individuals, organizations and communities can better meet the adaptive challenges facing them, the Leadership Institute provides educational programs, research opportunities and a learning community that develops leaders from a variety of professions.

W

orking with the San Diego Foundation’s Center for Community Engagement, SOLES’ Leadership Institute conducted a learningoriented coaching engagement with the Great Neighborhood Challenge. In 20 neighborhoods across the county, graduate students worked as emerging coaches to build interest in, and capacity for, the practice of leadership and community engagement. The Great Neighborhood Challenge program was designed to promote social equity and address local quality of life issues by helping to build leadership and organization around specific projects which ranged from festivals to public art to healthy eating programs. Through the Leadership Institute, the students provided reflective assessment to track the projects’ development and strengthen community engagement.

RISE FELLOWS

Inaugural class of RISE Urban Leadership Fellows

Community-based leaders from historically underserved, urban areas of San Diego have the opportunity to build their skills, capacity and networks through the Urban Leadership Fellows Program. The goal is to advance meaningful and sustained change for their communities and our region. Created through a partnership between the Leadership Institute and RISE San Diego, and launched in the spring of 2014, the program will graduate 20-24 fellows each year. Using an adaptive leadership approach that promotes active engagement and deep reflection, the program focuses on the personal and professional development of each fellow through intensive forums, development and implementation of a selfselected community project, as well as coaching and peer learning throughout the fellowship year.

Through deep reflection and experiential learning,

the fellows discover untapped strengths, develop skills to make informed community interventions, and build individual and collective capacity to challenge old patterns that inhibit effectiveness.

Through their participation, RISE Urban Leadership Fellows become equipped to take effective and sustainable action to transform San Diego’s urban communities for current and future generations.

Dr. Zachary Green, associate director of the Leadership Institute and professor of practice in the Department of Leadership Studies at SOLES, is the faculty lead for the program.

Annual Nonprofit Governance Symposium Develops San Diego’s Board Members and Leaders

M

ore than 300 nonprofit professionals and board members attended the annual Nonprofit Governance Symposium, offered

by SOLES’ Institute for Nonprofit Education and Research, to learn about nonprofit best practices and hone their skills. Now in its 12th year, the symposium offers workshops, seminars and lectures that explore internal and external strategies and systems to improve knowledge, methods, tools and relationships for nonprofit board members and leadership. This year, the theme was Common Sense Governance, inspired by the near-end of the San Diego Opera, and featured a panel discussion comprised of the board members who saved it from closure.

Proceeds from the event benefit the Nonprofit Leadership and Management Program’s scholarship fund, raising more than $50,000 in 2015.

KALEIDOSCOPE AWARD FOR EXCEPTIONAL GOVERNANCE

The highlight of each event is the awarding of the Kaleidoscope Award for Board Excellence.

Improving Mental Health Care for Service Members and their Families

I

nspired by a strong military presence in San Diego and the need for mental health professionals to learn more about working effectively with members of the military and their families, the Department of Counseling & Marital and Family Therapy hosted Serving Those Who Serve, a conference for mental health professionals. Attendees from around the county learned new ways to effectively work with service members, networked with others to become better equipped to deal with this growing need, and were inspired to improve services available to the military.

An interactive and engaging environment, the conference included keynote addresses from Dr. Heidi Kraft, an Iraq war veteran and former active duty Navy clinical psychologist, and Marjorie Morrison, CEO and founder of PsychArmor Institute. Breakout sessions explored topics including moral injury, mental health stigma in the military, and mind body medicine. The conference also focused on understanding the military culture, providing training resources for professionals, understanding the perspectives on mental health challenges, and addressing the stages of military life.

EPHIPHANY PREP CHARTER SCHOOL

SOLES is well represented at Epiphany Prep Charter School, a K-8 school serving students in the economically disadvantaged Encanto area of San Diego. Sarah Raskin, chief academic officer and founding principal, and Stacey Rawson, school counselor, have created a student-centered environment, and associate professor Dr. Ian Martin serves on its board.

In 2013, 75% of its 4th-7th grade students had been expelled or suspended multiple times from their previous schools. Epiphany’s approach to discipline is based on positive behavior intervention systems, explicit social-emotional learning instruction and restorative justice. Rather than assigning consequences for poor behavior, Epiphany’s administration facilitates sessions with students to determine solutions to problems, address underlying concerns and work collectively toward tangible outcomes. In its first two years, suspensions decreased by 54%.

Epiphany’s mission is to prepare students for college, career and life success. Rawson prepares students to transition to top rated high schools by meeting individually with all 8th grade students and their families to explore options that will best fit their college plans. Additionally, students are coached through the application and enrollment process, including school visitations, interviews and auditions.

Teaching Excellence

Innovation is in the DNA of SOLES. We created the first Leadership Studies doctoral program in the nation, we were the first education school in the nation to require that all students complete an international experience, and we have students from all three departments conducting action research projects annually. SOLES is nimble, which enables us to be highly responsive to our community and stakeholders by evolving our existing programs and curriculum, adding new degree or certificate programs, and hiring faculty with new specializations and expertise in areas that are in-demand from employers.

Evolving Curriculum Curriculum at SOLES is a living thing, constantly evolving to address external changes and best prepare our students for their careers after graduation. These changes are driven by assessment data from students and alumni, information from potential employers, and faculty expertise about trends in higher education in their respective fields.

new PhD specialization, Teaching, Learning & Leadership, was created this year by the Department of Learning and Teaching (DLT) and the Department of Leadership Studies (DLS).

Combining the strengths of DLS and DLT, this program addresses the lack of opportunities for educators who wish to take up leadership roles at their school or district, support the long term growth of K-12 teachers through teacher education and professional development, or further their own learning.

Funded by a USD Internal Assessment Grant, the Department of Learning and Teaching examined assessment results from alumni, employer and

student exit surveys and conducted a full curriculum audit of all its courses. To address the areas identified - integration of technology in planning, teaching and assessment, classroom management, and teaching to a diverse population of students - the DLT provided faculty with professional development opportunities and shared research on best practices.

Syllabi were revised and rubrics were developed to measure new outcomes. Using data and continuing to evaluate instruction is an ongoing process that will continue to strengthen our students’ educational outcomes.

The Master in Leadership Studies recently underwent a curricular change to reaffirm the degree’s professional focus where we provide students with theoretical and conceptual foundations and emphasize application to prepare them to work in the field of their choice. Similarly, the Department of Leadership Studies is in the final phases of a revision of the PhD curriculum that started with a review of comparable and aspirational PhD programs around the world

along with internal assessment data. The revised curriculum will reaffirm the three broad areas of self-awareness, research skills and leadership theory that shape the degree.

Just three years ago the counseling and marital and family therapy (MFT) programs joined under one department: the Department of Counseling & Marital and Family Therapy. This year the Clinical Mental Health Counseling specialization received accreditation from the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP), becoming one of only three such clinical mental health programs in California and joining the School Counseling specialization and the MFT program with existing national accreditation. For each of these programs, practicum and fieldwork training is arguably the most important training experience, and we’re able to offer very diverse opportunities thanks to our partner organizations – while many are long-standing partnerships, we’re thrilled to welcome many new partners, doubling the offerings for students in recent years.

E

ducators will have an opportunity to deepen their understanding of best teaching practices for children with learning disabilities through a new fellows program. Beginning in fall of 2015 with educators from local San Diego schools, the Johnson Family Foundation has funded a fellows program through the SOLES Department of Learning and Teaching. The cohort will reflect on their teaching practices and learn how cultural and social contexts influence students’ achievement and affect their behavior.

In a continuation of the annual symposium on inclusion in K-12 education, the fellows program will host guest scholars who will present some of the most important issues in the area of learning disabilities. These events will be open to the public, and Johnson Fellows will receive additional support through workshops immediately following

the events. Additionally, they will use an online networking medium to facilitate fellowship and collaboration, and will present their self-reflections and changes in practice at the end of the program.

TEMPLE GRANDIN

At the start of the 2014-2015 school year, the Johnson Family Foundation hosted Temple Grandin for the annual Symposium on Inclusion in K-12 Education. Grandin, a livestock behavior scientist, software engineer, autism advocate and educator, spoke about the differences between the autistic brain and those of non-autistic people, and about the challenges and benefits of living with autism.

Three years ago it began as a voluntary lunchtime writing program and has now grown to include all subject areas with 14,750 student visits in two years of operation as an after school program. Students can ask questions that they don’t feel comfortable asking in the classroom, advocate for themselves, and form positive relationships with teachers and administrators.

Lancia now moves on as a finalist for the countywide Teacher of the Year competition, and will be recognized by the San Diego County Office of Education in October.

Goal-Setting Curriculum Helps Students Achieve

A

new curriculum created by Dr. Ian Martin, assistant professor in the Department of Counseling & Marital and Family Therapy, helps school counselors teach 3rd – 12th grade students about how to set and achieve their own goals.

Finalized last year, the program was piloted in seven 5th-8th grade classrooms in three schools within the Santee School District. Each classroom used the curriculum for eight weeks, teaching students the 10 key program principles.

Each week within the pilot, the students worked toward the same academic, social or personal goals, and tracked their progress.

The curriculum allows for selfregulated learning, so the students understand how they learn, build motivation, and increase their accountability. Short-term changes

in school engagement and classroom climate were measured pre and post curriculum intervention.

The pilot results are currently being analyzed with a report anticipated in the fall of 2016.

The curriculum offers a baseline program of principles and processes for educators to build upon with their own strengths and creativity. For example, in the pilot, counselors and teachers worked collaboratively to incorporate additional design elements like inspirational quotes, social skills activities and Jeopardy-style games.

This flexibility allows practitioners to have a sense ownership over the process and play to their strengths.

The colorful, modern, and engaging design of the materials help to personalize the process for participating students.

Otto Cocino and a team of students created a comprehensive compliance plan for his employer Metropolitan Area Advisory Committee on AntiPoverty of San Diego County (MAAC) Project as part of their ethics course in the nonprofit leadership master’s program. MAAC, which serves more than 35,000 individuals throughout San Diego annually, offers programs to maximize self sufficiency for individuals and families. It is subject to requirements from city, county, state, and federal regulations, so MAAC’s leadership saw great value in the plan, implemented most of the recommendations and promoted Cocino to director of compliance.

In addition to overseeing audits and maintaining MAAC’s contracts, Cocino has developed an ethics hotline, training for employees, and works closely with the audit and compliance committee of the board of directors on all reporting. Moving forward, Cocino is striving to reach beyond compliance and has taken on an Efforts to Outcomes (ETO) initiative to track progress toward strategic goals and evaluate key elements to better the organization.

OUTSTANDING LEADERSHIP BOOK AWARD

In recognition of leadership as a valued practice and that people can be effective agents of change in whatever position they hold, the Department of Leadership Studies has established the Outstanding Leadership Book Award to honor thought leaders in the field.

The theme, Conscious Leadership, was developed by the SOLES host team, and aligns with the values of the department, SOLES and USD. SOLES faculty take care to align their work with their personal values, and give great care and attention to the work they do with their communities and with their students.

Jeffersonian Dinner SOLES hosted our first Jeffersonian dinner- an evening of informed conversation, transformative connections, and dinner- with a twist. At 12 tables placed throughout Mother Rosalie Hill Hall, more than 120 guests participated in conversations around one of nine topics, pre-selected by them and hosted by a SOLES faculty member. In Jeffersonian-style, only one conversation occurred at each table, with only one person speaking at a time. Generously underwritten by the James Irvine Foundation, this event was one of a series of farewell events hosted in honor of Dean Cordeiro’s final year as dean of SOLES.
