week4750EDU3articlesandinformationrelatingtothetextbook.docx

The following are the 3 articles below to complete this assignment: PLEASE COMPLIE EACH IN A ZIP FILE and name as the instruction states.

Article 1 – Qualitative Research Design (Can be AR-QUAL)

Sera, H., Hunter, M., Alvarado, A., & Brown, K. T. (2024). Prescribed, Ritualized, and Activated Belonging: A Qualitative Study of Student Belonging at a Historically Black College and University. Journal of Diversity in Higher Education, 18(6), 957–971. https://doi.org/10.1037/dhe0000631

Why this fits:

· Educational study

· Focuses on Black/African American college students

· Examines belonging, student experiences, and institutional support

· Qualitative interviews/data

· Can connect to action research because institutions can use findings to improve student support programs

Design for Matrix: ✅ AR-QUAL (Action Research – Qualitative)

Here is paraphrased comment you can use:

Articles Comment 1 – Self-Regulated Learning & Student Success

Kitsantas et al. (2023) explain that self-regulated learning involves students actively managing their learning through processes such as goal setting, monitoring progress, using strategies, and reflecting on outcomes. These skills are important because students who develop stronger self-regulation are better prepared to overcome academic challenges and persist toward educational goals.

APA in-text citation: (Kitsantas et al., 2023)

Article 2 – Qualitative Research Design (Can be PE-QUAL)

DeCuir-Gunby, J. T., McCoy, W. N., & Gibson, S. M. (2023). The Compounding Impact of Racial Microaggressions: The Experiences of African American Students in Predominantly White Institutions. Teachers College Record, 125(5). https://doi.org/10.1177/01614681231181798

Why this fits:

· Examines African American students’ experiences at predominantly White institutions

· Addresses racial barriers, campus climate, and sense of belonging

· Uses student experiences to identify institutional changes needed

· Can connect to evaluating campus diversity/support programs

Design for Matrix: ✅ PE-QUAL (Program Evaluation – Qualitative)

Article Comment 2 – Academic Achievement

According to Kitsantas et al. (2023), academic achievement is influenced not only by students’ abilities but also by their use of effective learning strategies, motivation, and beliefs about their ability to succeed. This suggests that institutions can support student success by implementing programs that strengthen students’ learning skills and confidence.

APA in-text citation: (Kitsantas et al., 2023)

Article 3 – Quantitative Research Design (Can be PE-QUAN)

Freire, D. S., & Hurd, N. M. (2023). Discrimination and Mental Health Outcomes Among Underrepresented College Students: The Role of Sense of Belonging at Predominantly White Institutions. Journal of Diversity in Higher Education. https://doi.org/10.1177/21676968231166967

Why this fits:

· Empirical quantitative study

· Includes historically underrepresented and economically disadvantaged college students

· Examines discrimination, belonging, and student outcomes

· Data can inform evaluation of student success programs

Design for Matrix: ✅ PE-QUAN (Program Evaluation – Quantitative)

Article Comment 3 – Connection to African American Student Disadvantage Topic

Kitsantas et al. (2023) emphasize that students’ academic outcomes are connected to their ability to engage in self-regulated learning behaviors, including planning, self-monitoring, and adapting strategies. For historically underserved students, including African American students who may encounter institutional barriers, structured support programs can help strengthen academic persistence and achievement.

APA in-text citation: (Kitsantas et al., 2023)

Your matrix could look like:

Article

Topic

Design

Sera et al. (2024)

Black student belonging at HBCU

AR-QUAL

DeCuir-Gunby et al. (2023)

Racial barriers/microaggressions

PE-QUAL

Freire & Hurd (2023)

Discrimination, belonging, student outcomes

PE-QUAN

These three connect well under one topic:

"Addressing barriers impacting African American college student success through belonging, support programs, and institutional change."

These should fit my Higher Education Administration focus better than a broad "poverty" topic.

For this assignment, USED Kitsantas et al. (2023) as course support source to explain concepts like self-regulated learning, student success, motivation, and academic achievement. Since it is not one of my three empirical articles, you can cite it in introduction, rationale, or discussion sections.

Example for your paper introduction:

Student success initiatives should consider both external barriers and students’ internal learning processes. Kitsantas et al. (2023) highlight the importance of self-regulated learning behaviors, motivation, and strategic learning approaches in promoting academic achievement. Therefore, evaluating programs designed to support African American students should examine how institutional resources and student skill development contribute to retention and success.

Reference (APA 7): Kitsantas, A., Cleary, T. J., DiBenedetto, M. K., & Hiller, S. E. (2023). Self-regulated learning and academic achievement: Theory, research, and practice. Cambridge University Press.

These will help you connect your African American student disadvantage topic to student success theory without using Kitsantas as one of your required three research articles.
