SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Tristan Claridge: Outline for the social capital paradigm - Session 2
DESCRIPTION:Invited Speaker\nTristan Claridge\nPresident\nInternational Social Capital Association \n			\n						Certificate of attendance\n					\n		https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SzIKa8f2nM \nThis webinar will sketch an outline for the social capital paradigm by identifying the common themes and underlying similarities between different meanings of social capital. I will propose a consistent logic schema for social capital and ten “pillars” of the paradigm; statements that are broadly true and generally applicable to any interpretation of social capital. I anticipate this will allow researchers and practitioners to more easily see how different perspectives relate to each other in complementary rather than conflicting ways\, thereby improving the possibilities for discourse between scholars and comparisons between studies. It has been 25 years since Castle (1998) concluded that “unless the social capital concept is used with some degree of precision and in a comparable manner\, it will come to have little value as an analytical construct”. By outlining a paradigm for social capital\, it will be easier for researchers and practitioners to implement and evaluate quality scholarship\, thereby improving precision and comparability\, and therefore\, the explanatory and transformative potential of the concept for the benefit of everyone. \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 theoretical and practical perspectives. He draws on lessons from 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 has written over 200 open-access articles on social capital and related topics and is actively engaged in ongoing research. \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: Prof. Paul E. Peterson: Are Connections the Way to Get Ahead?
DESCRIPTION:Invited Speaker\nProfessor Paul E. Peterson\nHenry Lee Shattuck Professor of Government\,Harvard University \n			\n						Certificate of attendance\n					\n		https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5NGMwPGsdo \nAre Connections the Way to Get Ahead?\nSocial Capital\, Student Achievement\, Friendships\, and Social Mobility\nChetty et al. (2022) say county density of cross-class friendships (referred to here as “adult-bridging capital”) has causal impacts on social mobility within the United States. We instead find that social mobility rates are a function of county density of family capital (higher marriage rates and two-person households)\, community capital (community organizations\, religious congregations\, and volunteering)\, and mean student achievement in grades 3-8. Our models use similar multiple regression equations and the same variables employed by Chetty et al. but also include state fixed effects\, student achievement\, and family\, community\, schoolbridging (cross-class high school friendships)\, and political (participation and institutional trust) capital. School-bridging capital is weakly correlated with mobility if adult-bridging is excluded from the model. R-squared barely changes when adult-bridging is incorporated into the model. When it is included\, mobility continues to be significantly correlated with the achievement\, family\, and community variables but not with school-bridging and political ones. We infer that county mobility rates are largely shaped by parental presence\, community life\, and student achievement. To enhance mobility\, public policy needs to enhance the lives of disadvantaged people at home\, in school\, and in communities\, not just the social class of their friendships. \nTime converter at worldtimebuddy.com \nAbout the presenter:\nPaul E. Peterson is Henry Lee Shattuck Professor of Government\, Director of the Program on Education Policy and Governance\, and Senior Editor of Education Next: A Journal of Opinion and Research\, all at Harvard University. He is also a Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution. He is a member of Hoover’s Education Success Initiative focusing on the improvement of education policy and providing public education solutions for state education and policy leaders. \nPeterson’s research interests include educational policy\, federalism\, social capital\, and charter schools. He has evaluated the effectiveness of school vouchers and other education reform initiatives\, identified growth in student performance and closing of social and ethnic gaps over the past fifty years\, and identified gains in student performance at charter schools. \nPeterson is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the National Academy of Education. Peterson is a recipient of a John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship\, the Woodrow Wilson Award from the American Political Science Association for the best book published in government or international relations and the Walton Family Foundation Prize for Best Academic Paper on School Choice and Reform awarded by the Economics and Finance Policy Association. The Editorial Projects in Education Research Center reported that Peterson’s studies on school choice and vouchers were among the country’s most influential studies of education policy. \nRecent books include Saving Schools: From Horace Mann to Virtual Learning and\, with Eric Hanushek and Ludger Woessmann\, Endangering Prosperity: A Global View of the American School.  \nAbout Our Webinar Series\nThis event is part of our regular webinar sessions for social capital researchers including PhD/master students.
