• Crowdfunding Can Be A Taxing Situation, by Clemense Ehoff, Jr. #134. Abstract: Crowdfunding models are
popping up wherever money is raised, and for almost any reason: social funding, equity funding, charitable

Developing Self-Regulation Behavioral Strategies For Elementary Students Through The Use Of Mindfulness
by Marilyn Hande & Belinda Karge #175
A critical factor in predicting school readiness and success in elementary school can be linked to wellness and
mental health (Denham & Brown 2010). Being able to understand and manage emotions, display responsible
actions, and cultivate positive relationships are critical features associated with Social Emotional Learning (SEL), one
key factor associated with mental health (CASEL, 2019). The ability to regulate behaviors, emotions and thoughts
and to make decisions that are positive both inside and outside the classroom lead to appropriate interactions with
peers (Bird & Sultman, 2010). Furthermore, a person’s capacity to identify and understand one’s own emotional
experience can support overall life functioning.
This workshop is designed to
a) Actively engage the participants with examples of Mindfulness engagement strategies for preK-5th grade.
b) Actively engage the participants with examples of specific mental health strategies designed to support
preK-5th grade.
c) Provide data on the impact of Mindfulness Yoga Social-Emotional Learning Focus: MYSELF Intervention
(Hande, 2020) on the development of self-regulation strategies for fifth-grade students through a mindfulness
intervention.
d) Share the mindfulness activities that were used with the MYSELF intervention group two days a week during
an eight-week period.
e) Coach participants through several strategies that can be used with teacher education or graduate student
candidates to assist them as they learn the importance of self-regulation strategies.
If you are an educator working with pre-K through grade 5 students or those who teach (or are planning to teach),
you will walk away with some creative solutions for immediate use when reinforcing social emotional learning.Monday, October 11 Back to Agenda

• Competency Model For Technology Startups, by Perry O'Neil #190. Abstract: A competency model provides a

• Sustainable Livelihoods: Corporate Social Investment And Agrarian Reform, by Jason Stratton Davis #198.
(Virtual Presentation) Abstract: The idea that the agricultural sector could provide inclusive economic growth
that transform South African rural landscape remains an elusive dream. Even though authors show that the
growth multipliers from agriculture exceed those of the non-agricultural sector and that increasing agricultural
productivity is associated with rapid transition out of poverty, the agricultural sector remains
underdeveloped…The answer lies in leveraging more Corporate Social Investment (CSI) towards the
development of small-scale farmers.

Suzanna Majhanovich, Jenna Adams #132. Abstract: In identifying the undermining of culture and human rights
in development, this paper juxtaposed coloniality through the narrative of “neoliberalism in development
cooperation.” The paper argues that indeed, coloniality that benefits the North is not a free market at all but a
denial of indigeneity, as the rules of the game are rigged in favor of the North’s take over and destruction that
result exponential - growth of national and international inequalities.Monday, October 11 Back to Agenda
