- Title
Embedded Remediation in Journalism & Mass Communication: Exploring Faculty Perceptions of an Experiential Approach.
- Authors
Abernathy, Andrew M.
- Abstract
Little research exists about embedded remediation (ER) in college journalism and mass communication (JMC) programs. ER could support students who are underprepared for college-level writing. Because ER would affect faculty's professional practice, this study explored its feasibility by investigating JMC faculty perceptions of ER and its feasibility. Qualitative inquiry via focus groups with a purposeful sample (n = 17) was used to explore perceptions and barriers to implementation and a conceptual framework including Experiential Learning Theory and the Teaching-for-Learning model was used in analysis. Four themes were identified: (a) growing concerns, (b) externalizing remediation, (c) institutional challenges, and (d) taking action.
