SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Edward DeJesus: Social Capital for Youth Economic Mobility
DESCRIPTION:Invited Speaker\nEdward DeJesus\nFounder of Social Capital Builders \nCertificate of attendance available \n			\n						Certificate of attendance\n					\n		https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgqhw-7EI5w \nA growing body of research now points to the pivotal role social capital plays in long-term labor market success and economic mobility. Unfortunately\, social capital building is a skill that’s not taught in schools nor in America’s workforce programs. Nearly 47 percent of Americans find jobs through their social capital connections and 65% of jobs are hidden – meaning they are never posted or posted improperly. At the same time\, according to the Aspen Institute\, 40 percent of young people between the ages of 16 and 24 are weakly attached or unattached to school and work. The pandemic has just exacerbated this situation. Millions of young Americans don’t receive the support to build the social capital connections necessary to build a career and buffer the harmful effects of racism\, discrimination\, and bias – something that too many young Americans face throughout their life. \nWhile nonprofits and schools spend more than 600 million each year to teach financial literacy\, not one dollar has been spent to teach students social capital literacy – the ability to audit\, access\, build\, maintain\, and manage social networks effectively to improve financial and social well-being. Edward DeJesus is changing that. \nEdward DeJesus is the Founder of Social Capital Builders\, a minority owned social enterprise dedicated to changing the face of equity and access for youth and adults living in America’s low-income communities through the power of social capital literacy\, development and analysis. Join Ed and his team at Social Capital Builders as they share their story with our network. \n  \nTime converter at worldtimebuddy.com \nAbout the presenter:\nEdward DeJesus is a top speaker\, administrator\, and youth advocate. For more than 35 years\, he has mixed his love for policy and practice by conducting research on effective programs that help youth acquire and maintain jobs. DeJesus served as a youth policy expert for the Sar Levitan Center for Youth Policy at John Hopkins University and on the Task Force on Employment Opportunities for young offenders for the U.S. Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention. He has served as a consultant to the Annie E. Casey Foundation\, Charles Stewart Mott Foundation\, the U.S. Dept. of Labor\, the Office of Job Corps\, YouthBuild USA\, the National Guard Challenge Program\, and the National Education Association. DeJesus has large-scale\, $3-million-plus youth initiatives in the South Bronx\, Washington Heights section of New York City\, and in Washington D.C.\, supervising more than 30 staff and serving up to 300 young adults. DeJesus is a W.K. Kellogg Foundation National Fellow.

His work has been featured on NPR\, The Washington Post\, The Baltimore Sun\, and The Miami Herald. \nAbout Our Webinar Series\nThis event is part of our regular webinar sessions for social capital researchers including PhD/master students. These sessions include invited presentations from prominent scholars as well as presentations by PhD students and experts in professional practice.\nFor social capital researchers\, these sessions are an opportunity to hear about the latest social capital research and insights from scholars working on the concept. They can be a great way to connect with people\, to get advice\, discuss ideas or issues\, get suggestions for literature to read\, or you can just listen. \nAre you researching social capital and want to present your research? Click here for more information and to submit a proposal. \nGenerally\, presentations can be 20 to 30 mins. The content of your presentation will depend on your research stage.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Tristan Claridge: Exploring the theoretical foundations and meaning of social capital
DESCRIPTION:Invited Speaker\nTristan Claridge\nPrincipal Consultant\nSocial Capital Research & Training \nCertificate of attendance available \n			\n						Certificate of attendance\n					\n		https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynB9CiPzBwg \nThe webinar will be held twice – at 8am UTC and 8pm UTC on Friday\, April 8th\, 2022 – to make it accessible to people in different time zones. \nThis webinar will explore the differences between the main conceptual approaches to social capital and their theoretical foundations. Social capital has a variety of different meanings\, and this tends to create confusion\, with the same term meaning different things. Several authors have attempted to categorise the different conceptual approaches\, such as the network\, normative\, and resource approaches. This is helpful; however\, the approach adopted by any specific research project often does not fit neatly into these categories\, and it is not clear how different aspects of different approaches relate to each other. \nTristan will outline a typology designed to improve our understanding of the relationships between the different conceptual approaches to social capital. The typology attempts to clarify what social capital is and aims to separate its source from its form and outcomes. This allows us to consider how different conceptual approaches to social capital focus on different aspects of the proposition that “relationships matter”. It may help us better understand the theoretical foundations of different approaches\, the causal relationships involved\, and what research questions each approach is best suited to explore. The typology also highlights what is missing and helps us consider the assumptions embedded in different approaches such that we have the opportunity to improve the quality of our research involving social capital. This webinar aims to help clarify the meaning and approaches to social capital\, provoke new ideas\, and engage researchers from different conceptual approaches in discussions about the similarities and differences. \n  \nTime converter at worldtimebuddy.com \nAbout the presenter:\nTristan Claridge has been researching and applying social capital for over 20 years. Tristan is a geographer and environmental scientist with a passion for social processes and how social value is identified and communicated. Tristan has a deep and grounded understanding of social capital and its application\, having worked on the concept from both the theoretical and practical perspectives. He draws on lessons of economics\, sociology\, political science\, psychology\, urban planning\, and any other discipline that contributes understanding to the concept. In addition to his practical work with the concept\, Tristan has been an active contributor to the academic debate about social capital. He is the convenor of the Social Capital Research group which has over 1000 members from over 140 countries. He has written over 200 open access articles on social capital and related topics and is actively engaged in ongoing research. \n \nAbout Our Webinar Series\nThis event is part of our regular webinar sessions for social capital researchers including PhD/master students.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Dr. Brian Gearin: Between the Lines: The Place of Social Capital in Reading Research
DESCRIPTION:Invited Speaker\nDr Brian Gearin\nUniversity of Oregon Center on Teaching and Learning \nCertificate of attendance available \n			\n						Certificate of attendance\n					\n		https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBuyUXzIey4 \nThis presentation will provide a brief history of the concept of social capital\, paying special attention to its development in educational research. Using research on reading as a focal point\, it will argue that commonly cited limitations of social capital as a concept are likely responsible for the concept’s relatively slow uptake in areas of research that draw on psychological theories and methods. Practical examples will be provided. The presentation will conclude by making tentative recommendations for improving the use of the concept in educational research. \n  \nTime converter at worldtimebuddy.com \nAbout the presenter:\nBrian Gearin is a research associate at the University of Oregon’s Center on Teaching and Learning. He co-leads dissemination efforts at the National Center on Improving Literacy and is the project manager of the Lead for Literacy Center\, two federally-funded projects aimed at promoting the use of technically adequate assessment and evidence-based instruction in the United States. His research is broadly focused on promoting equitable literacy outcomes through evidence-based practices and policies.  Prior to becoming a researcher\, Gearin taught high school English and social studies. \nAbout Our Webinar Series\nThis event is part of our regular webinar sessions for social capital researchers including PhD/master students.
