ABSTRACT Preparing children and youth for a world of growing complexity, diversity, and mobility requires fresh educational approaches and deliberate pedagogies. In this article, we explore the role of storytelling in making sense of crucial global transformations affecting children’s lives. We examine how migrant children and their peers in two classrooms – in the United States and Greece – learn to listen to, co-construct, and share stories of migration. The article draws on a comparative case study and action research approach to advance a novel “Collective Stories of Voice and Influence” pedagogy. We find four qualities that render Collective Stories of Voice and Influence pedagogically effective: they are collaboratively constructed, multivoiced, materially grounded, and civically empowering. The proposed pedagogy can inform educators interested in novel teaching designs that use narratives to help children address complex global issues while creating safe conditions to navigate moments of vulnerability.

ABSTRACT The researchers present a case study of an ongoing literacy tutoring program for elementary-age students in foster care. The first two authors collaborated with the education program at The New York Foundling, and created a multi-component, data-based program modification to guide tutors to virtually assess and teach core literacy skills. The program combined explicit instruction, fluency building, and ongoing critique of student needs through formative assessments. Students in foster care face significant challenges and begin tutoring with complex stories. The researchers found that using a dynamic approach in tutoring allowed the majority of students in foster care enrolled to make growth in literacy skills during the COVID-19 pandemic. The experimental design was a single-group, pre-to-posttest design with intermittent, repeated measures. Tutors provided detailed responses to a usability survey to assist in better understanding the complex nature of working with this population. Future directions for the program and implications for working with this vulnerable population were discussed.

ABSTRACT Executive functions (EFs) play a crucial role in academic performance. In the present study, we aimed to improve EFs through a group-based cognitive training. Thirty-three typically developing children (age mean: 58.80 ± 7.04 months) were recruited in a random clinical trial design in two intervention (n = 18) and active control (n = 15) groups. Emoji selection, shifting attention, day/night Stroop, Corsi block tapping tasks, and behavioral rating inventory of executive function (BRIEF) were used for assessment in three baseline, post-intervention, and 3-month follow-up sessions. The intervention group received Class-based Cognitive Remediation (COREN) and the active control group participated in a storytelling class, both in 12 sessions. The result suggests improvement in sustained attention, cognitive flexibility, inhibitory control, and working memory in intervention group. The rating scales showed improvement in executive functioning in the intervention group based on parental rating. Group-based cognitive training is beneficial to improve EFs in kindergarten.
