This essential resource helps educators tackle the most
common and challenging dilemmas that
arise in today’s classroom—such as diversity,
privilege, and intersectionality. This book examines
common challenges that arise for educators
teaching social justice and diversity-related courses and
offers best practices for addressing them.
Contributors cover issues such as the many roles
instructors play, inside and outside of college and
university classrooms, for example, in handling
personal threats, responsibly incorporating current events related
to social justice into classroom discussion, navigating one's own
stigmatized or privileged identities, dealing with bias
in teaching evaluations, and engaging in self-care.
The authors' backgrounds offer unique perspectives from
which to approach such complex subject
matter; several contributors
are feminist or intersectional
scholars with the experience and expertise to address
the pedagogical dilemmas that often arise in teaching social
justice. Many of the issues discussed arise from the
authors' own experiences as teachers in the current
social climate; however, they also are verified by research on
quality teaching in general and teaching about diversity
specifically.Â

The tremendous proliferation of end user computing (EUC) in the
workplace over the past few decades is cause for concern in public
and private organizations. Computer use has moved from individuals
working with "dumb" terminals in centralized networks to
individuals operating personal computers, just as powerful as
yesterday's mainframe. The end user has had to evolve and will
continue evolving as well; from someone with low level technical
skills to someone with a high level of technical knowledge and
information managerial skills. Because EUC continues growing more
sophisticated, end users must not only maintain a level of
competence, but prepare for the next generation of computing
technology. Doing so will enable organizations to continue enjoying
the positive benefits of EUC success. Research indicates that EUC
success may depend on end user competence. Using Structural
Equation Modeling (SEM) to test an integrated model of EUC success,
the results of this study show that computer training, education
level, beliefs about computer systems and the ability to operate
them lead to end user computing competence.
