UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-MILWAUKEE Bader School of Social Welfare 896-791/591: World of Work and Family, Revisited: Behavioral Science Knowledge

and Selected Policy Issues Professor: R.L. McNeely, Ph.D., J.D. Office: Enderis 1039 Office Hrs: By Appointment Office Phone: 229-4851; 229-5003 Res. Phone: (262) 255-4015 Fax/E-mail: (262) 255-4019; rlmatty@wi.rr.com I. Purpose, Objectives and Constraints of the Course
This course is designed with the intention that it will be an educationally meaningful fun experience for students. Contrasting viewpoints about controversial matters under discussion are welcome in the spirit of hearty, cordial, in-class debate, even if such viewpoints differ from those expressed by the instructor. All viewpoints, however, should be framed by solid empirical evidence. There are no onerous testing or classroom assignments, although students are expected to participate in class discussions, and to engage in self-directed library research and study. It is assumed that students enrolled in the course are earnestly seeking information on the topical areas covered by the course and will be "self-starters" in pursuit of that goal. The primary educational purpose of the course is to focus attention to the importance of workplace conditions on individual health and social functioning to those who plan to be providers of human services. Particular emphasis is placed on selected problems and issues of salience for women in the U.S. workforce (such as "comparable worth," innovative work/family balancing programs, the influence on children's development of various maternal employment patterns, etc.). The course also focuses upon selected policy issues relevant to topics covered in the class through student discussions that follow some of the course's lecture segments. Stated briefly, the course examines: (1) pertinent issues affecting young adult, middle-aged and older (particularly female) workers; (2) genderal differences among the races with respect to important sociodemographic and experiential factors; (3) the occupational distribution of women versus men in the economy and the shaping influence of employment patterns and other factors on cosmological differences; and (4) selected social policy implications by topical area. This course is limited by an important constraint. It would be advantageous to examine all major work and family issues by occupation, gender and adult life-cycle stages. Presently, this is not possible because data are incomplete, and data that are available often are contradictory. Hence, the analysis either often will shift across occupational categories, sex of worker and life-cycle stages, or selected topics will be delivered as autonomous units of material. One important limitation is that there is inadequate evidence relating work and family factors to workplace productivity patterns. These and other limitations may affect the overall symmetry of the course.

II.

Course Readings
There are no assigned readings for this course. Numerous bibliographic references, however, are provided within the instant syllabus from which students may select readings of individual interest. The collection of readings listed in the syllabus does not exhaust all possible books, articles nor topics that a student may wish to explore. One reason that there are no assigned readings is because there are no current in-print texts that cover the content of the course. Another reason there are no assigned readings is to allow students maximum flexibility, in pursuing their own educational goals, with respect to seeking content on work and family areas

896-791/591 Page Two


of individual interest. Some articles appearing in the syllabus are on reserve in the library; other articles require retrieval from the library's general stacks.

896-791/591 Page Three III. Teaching Method


Lectures interspersed with student presentations will constitute the major teaching method. Students are encouraged to relate the course content to personal life experiences and specific areas of interest. Forms of participation other than class discussion may be suggested throughout the semester but lively in-class participation is a must for this course. The instructor will be especially receptive to any innovative proposals made by students with respect to their interest to make contributions to the class. Lecture content will be delivered based upon recognition of two competing conceptual stances including: (A) the assumption of workplace primacy in shaping personal lives; and (B) the assumption of workplace/family reciprocity wherein work and family are viewed as affecting each other in a circular fashion. However, the impact of workplace conditions upon the quality of family life and the impact of legislative and other policies on work and family life will be stressed throughout the course.

IV. Bases for Student Evaluation


Students, working in non-competitive teams, selected by the instructor, will present to the class scholarly journal articles or scholarly books that they have individually reviewed. Students are responsible for selecting the readings (either three articles or one book per presentation) that they will present. Teams should select a presentational category based on the categories listed at the end of the syllabus but the instructor may be petitioned to select a presentational category that is not listed at the back of the syllabus. No two groups should select the same presentational category for a given presentational cycle, and teams are responsible for ensuring that their selected category does not duplicate the category of another presenting group. Additionally, students working within teams are required to ensure that students do not duplicate the articles or books that another team member presents. Although students may select articles to review from the often historical thru current-day articles listed within the categories (to determine how and if knowledge on a topic has moved forward over the years), efforts should be made to locate pertinent non-listed articles. Students also may petition the instructor if wishing to present on a topic different than the topic selected by the students team. Each of the presentation cycles will occur following the instructor having completed two/three lecture segments. As there are seven lecture segments, students likely will be presenting on two or three occasions during the semester. Students, presenting poorly will be so informed following each presentation. However, as this course is construed to be a fun course, grading is based on the assumption that each student starts the course with an "A" grade. A grade of less than "A" will be awarded when a student fails to make reasonable efforts in selecting, reviewing, analyzing, recording, and presenting content. Students should select their two most informative articles for presentation. The oral presentations should flow from recorded (written) annotated summations of the articles and books. Students may utilize their annotated summaries during presentations in glancing fashion, only. You cannot read your summaries when presenting. One-pager summaries must be handed in to the instructor following presentations. The format for the summaries follows:
1. Full citation (ASA Style) of the article or book. If you do not know the ASA citational style, go look at a volume of American Sociological Review. 2. Research Questions (One paragraph statement of the article's research questions or the books thematic issues) 3. Methodology [One or two paragraph statement of the method of the study, including procedures (e.g., interviewing) and instruments (e.g., questionnaires) used, and author's or student's expressed limitations of the method.] 4. Specific Findings (One or two paragraph statement of findings including how the findings conflict with those of other important studies?)

5. Unanswered Questions (Unanswered research questions?/What new research is needed?)

896-791/591 Page Four


Please note that students likely will be interrupted with comments during presentations. Several criteria will be used to judge a presentation. These include the extent to which the presentation:
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Is thought provoking; Is indicative of reflection; Includes additional pertinent information beyond that supplied in course lectures; Is clear (presentational clarity); Is an integrated (rather than disjointed) on-theme discussion; Is EXTEMPORANEOUS (conversational) in style. Involves contrasting viewpoints within a team that are effectively presented, argued, and defended (point/counterpoint); 8. Involves effective use of visual aides.

PLEASE REVIEW EXEMPLARS (Angela Engel) IN RESERVE WING OF LIBRARY An oral final examination integrating the content of the course will conclude the semester.

V.

Work Teams
Although the presentations of individual team members are conceived as being the product of individual effort, it is expected that team members will interface prior to the presentations in order to achieve a reasonable degree of presentational symmetry. For example, no team members may present on the same article or book and members presenting on articles with contradictory findings should be prepared to offer plausible explanations for the conflicts. It is advisable, thus, for teams to meet and discuss their presentations prior to presenting, and it is advisable that annotated summaries be shared within teams prior to presentations. Students are expected to be responsible members of their work teams. Students must notify the instructor if a team member is not acting according to this standard (contributing responsibly as a team member). Efforts to mediate the situation will follow notification.

VI.

Presentations
Each member of a team, ideally, should make his or her own oral presentations. The instructor, however, is aware that infrequent circumstances arise wherein a student may not be able to attend class on a presentation date. The instructor is agreeable to a missed date if the student secures the consent of his/her team for missing the presentation, and one or more members of the team agree(s) to present the absent student's presentation. Please contact the instructor prior to the scheduled presentation if a presentation must be missed. Explanations provided after scheduled presentation dates will be considered only if some major event has occurred and can be documented (e.g., automobile accident, unanticipated hospitalization, etc.). Team members not making presentations must petition the instructor at least two weeks prior to the presentation. Also, the instructor may waive some presentations (in large classes) but summaries still must be submitted.

VII.

Participation by Students with Disabilities*


Students needing special accommodations in order to meet any of the requirements of this course are urged to contact the professor as soon as possible.

VIII. Religious Observances*


Students will be allowed to complete examinations or other requirements that are missed due to traditional religious observances. Students missing a lecture because of a religious observance are encouraged to obtain notes for that lecture from a fellow student.

896-791/591 Page Five IX. Academic Misconduct*


Students are responsible for the honest completion and representation of their work, for the appropriate citation of sources, and for respect of the academic endeavors of others. Ascending sanctions for academic misconduct include the following: (1) a reprimand maintained in the files of the Dean of Students; (2) a repeat assignment; (3) a lower or failing grade for an assignment or for the course; (4) removal from the course; (5) academic probation; (6) suspension; and (7) expulsion. Suspensions and expulsions bar enrollment at any campus in the UW System. All sanctions may be appealed. Student academic misconduct procedures are specified in Chapter UWS 14 and in UWM Faculty Document 1686.

X.

Complaint Procedures* Complaints may be directed to the head of the academic unit or department in which the complaint occurs.

XI.

Grade Appeal Procedures*


A grade may be appealed on the grounds that it is based on a capricious or arbitrary decision by the professor. Appeals must follow the established procedures adopted by the Bader School of Social Welfare. These procedures are available in writing from the Director of Social Work Programs. Students should be aware, however, that the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the assessment of student performance depends on largely subjective standards and expert review [Mathews v. Eldridge, 424 U.S. 319; 96 S. Ct. 893 (1976)]. The Court also has emphasized in other cases that subtlety and expertise are involved in academic decision-making with respect to grades [Board of Curators v. Horowitz, 435 U.S. 78 (1978)]. Due to the inherent subjectiveness and need for skilled expertise in grading student performance, so long as a professor has acted in good faith when awarding a grade, professors have a complete defense, even if the grade was awarded in error (cf: Mathews v. Eldridge). Thus an "arbitrary" decision and a subjective decision are not the same thing. Professors have not been allowed to waive their responsibilities to make subjective assessments of student performance based on their skilled expertise.

XII.

Racial Discrimination and Sexual Harassment*


Racial discrimination and sexual harassment are reprehensible and will not be tolerated by the university. They subvert the mission of the university and threaten the careers, educational experience, and well being of students, faculty, and staff. The university will not tolerate behavior between or among members of the university community which creates an unacceptable working environment. Similarly, the professor will tolerate neither racial nor gender discrimination between or among students enrolled in the course.

XIII. Incompletes*
An "incomplete" may be awarded to a student who has carried a subject successfully until the end of the semester but who, because of illness, or other unusual and substantiated cause beyond the student's control, has been unable to take or complete the required assignments, final examination, or some other limited amount of term work.

SELECTED RACE-, AGE- AND GENDER-SENSITIVE POLICIES AND PROGRAMS


Behavioral science knowledge clearly supports the existence of cosmological differences among different race, age and gender groups. Some of the differences are matters of degree but other differences appear to be substantive. Nevertheless, instituting policies based upon the differences in perspective different groups bring to the workplace is ill-advised; such policies inevitably would lead to litigation alleging preferential treatment. On the other hand, it is desirable to implement and maintain programs that are sensitive to differences in the conditions of work (discrimination, harassment, etc.) confronting members of national minority groups and women. Second, it is desirable to implement policies and programs that are sensitive to conditions associated with certain life cycle changes (and disabilities) affecting different groups of workers (pregnancy, early childrearing, diminished capacity related to age, or infirmity). Simply put, the presence of policies/programs sensitive to both sets of conditions is necessary to ensure universal access and opportunity in pursuit of broad goals that encourage distributing resources fairly.

WORK/FAMILY BALANCING PROGRAMS


Common problems experienced by dual career and two-job families with small children include scheduling conflicts, difficulties in locating care providers for ill children, difficulties arranging child care, and insufficient time to meet adequately both work and family demands, resulting in role overload. Additionally, in 1990, only about 40% of working women were employed by companies mandated by law to provide paid maternity leave. Thus, a majority of working women not only must risk a loss of income due to childbirth, many return to work following the period of leave. Obviously, policies and programs that take these problems into account must be adopted if an optimal balance between the demands of paid employment and family life is to be achieved (although some data indicate that these programs have adverse effects on women's wage growth). Several policies and programs that can address these problems include: (1) flexitime, to reduce scheduling conflicts; (2) sick child leave; (3) employer sponsored or assisted child care; and (4) maternal, paternal and adoptive leave. Unfortunately, although all of these can relieve some of the strains experienced by working parents, all involve significant difficulties for employers. One country, England, legislatively mandates some employers to guarantee part-time employment to formerly full-time workers whose maternal responsibilities prohibit them from returning to work on a full-time basis. Job sharing is another alternative.
