ORLD4051: Linear Models of Intellectual Development: Session 3 (9/25/17)
Extracted Annotations (9/25/2017, 6:56:19 PM)
""A fundamental belief in students is more important than anything else. This fundamental belief is not a sentimental matter: it is a very demanding matter of realistically conceiving the student where he or she is, and at the same time never losing sight of where he or she can be!"" (Knefelkamp 1999:2)
"The first significant contribution was Perry's use of the concept of positions." (Knefelkamp 1999:2)
"Our ability to take into account the influences of gender, race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic class as well as other aspects of identity has been greatly influenced by the concept of positionality, literally one's stance with respect to knowing, making meaning, and making commitments." (Knefelkamp 1999:2)
"Perry stressed the student's ability to construct meanings and to shift or change those constructions or standpoints to developmentally accommodate uncertainty, paradox, and the demands of greater complexity in knowledge and learning." (Knefelkamp 1999:2)
"Perry's understanding of positionality was deeply related to his understanding of developmental transitions." (Knefelkamp 1999:2)
"Again, he anticipated later models of adult transition when he strongly emphasized our need to understand students in motion and to not imprison them in stages.'" (Knefelkamp 1999:2)
"For this reason, he wanted us to keep the dynamic view of students at the center of our thinking and to always link the needs of students to our notions of pedagogy." (Knefelkamp 1999:2)
"He often said that faculty make fbe mistake of thinking that they have only two options when grading papers or working wifb students: praise and blame." (Knefelkamp 1999:2)
"third, more powerful and necessary option: recognition" (Knefelkamp 1999:2)
"He gently reminds us that students offer us both recognition and encouragement-and the possibility of wisdom that comes from the experience of loss." (Knefelkamp 1999:2)
"forms" (Knefelkamp 1999:3)
"Developmental Instruction" approach" (Knefelkamp 1999:3)
"the form of pedagogy is to be guided by the nature of the students in the class." (Knefelkamp 1999:3)
"original sample of stuThe issue that often arises is the issue of the dents" (Knefelkamp 1999:3)

"that Freire would characterize as "banking models," with their emphasis on authority, information exchange, and the quest for right answers.s" (Knefelkamp 1999:4)
"The second major issue has to do with assessment of student characteristics through the filter of the model." (Knefelkamp 1999:4)
"Measure of Intellectual Development (MID-sometimes referred as the KneWi in the early research literature to" (Knefelkamp 1999:4)
"Learning Environments Preference instrument (LEP)." (Knefelkamp 1999:4)
"eight crucial variables change as the student becomes more intellectually complex (view of knowledge and learning, role of the instructor, role of the student, role of peers in the learning process, intellectual tasks that are understood, evaluation issues, sources of developmental disequilibrium or challenge, and sources of support)" (Knefelkamp 1999:5)
"general overview of an individual's intellectual development that is derived from the analysis of several interviews about the topics of ways of knowing and the nature of knowledge and education;" (Knefelkamp 1999:5)
""Contextual Perry" -the particular way of thinking associated with a particular context such as an academic discipline, a religious belief system, or a specific course (" (Knefelkamp 1999:5)
"3) "Functional Regression"-the phenomenon seen when adult learners undertake new learning in a new learning environment and "functionally" regress to multiplistic thinking until they feel comfortable in the new environment (we first observed this with graduate students)." (Knefelkamp 1999:5)
"cultural perspectives and values affect the student data and the rating or evaluation methods." (Knefelkamp 1999:5)
""Relativism;' he would say, "means relative to what-to something-it implies comparison, criteria" (Knefelkamp 1999:5)
"and judgment!"" (Knefelkamp 1999:6)
"phrase contextual relativism" (Knefelkamp 1999:6)
"Thus, it is primarily Positions 2 through 5 that are significant in the context of student learning." (Knefelkamp 1999:6)
"Position 9 was a resolve to continue with these competing and interlocking aspects of one's self and one's life--not a resolution of the conflicts. Nine is an active existential stance." (Knefelkamp 1999:6)
"alternatives to growth" (Knefelkamp 1999:6)
"retreat allows us greater insight into the difference between the naive dualism of the new learner and the pernicious dualism of the angry bigot in retreat from complexity." (Knefelkamp 1999:6)
"Perhaps the concept of temporizing does need modification." (Knefelkamp 1999:6)
"Introduction XX! the multiple commitments Position 8 was actually quite elongated in time, as it reflected not just the experience of the consequences of the initial commitment made in Position 7 but now Elaborations Contextual Anticipation, Experience on Dualism Relativism of Commitment Figure 1.1."

"Basseches's work Dialectical Thinking and Adult Develop. mentis another cognitive-structural model which bears Perry's influence." (Knefelkamp 1999:7)
"Robert Kegan acknowledges his influence in The Evolving Self and uses the famous spiral diagram Perry originated to illustrate the evolving model." (Knefelkamp 1999:7)
"(This spiral is also used by David Kolb in his work on learning styles.)" (Knefelkamp 1999:7)
"Milton Bennett's widely used model of intercultural sensitivity ("Towards Ethnorelativism: A Developmental Model of Intercultural Sensitivity")" (Knefelkamp 1999:7)
"We identified four variables that seemed to underlie the developmental model: I) the student's experience of and response to diversity; 2) the amount of authority-provided structure for the learning environment; 3) the nature of experiential learning that was experienced as part of the class; and 4) the degree to which the class could be characterized as respectful, collaborative, and able to relate the subject matter to the context of the students' lives {personalism)."

My Notes
Dualism. Division of meaning into two realms-Good versus Bad, Right versus Wrong, We versus They, All that is not Success is Failure, and the like. Right Answers exist somewhere for every problem, and authorities know them. Right Answers are to be memorized by hard work. Knowledge is quantitative. Agency is experienced as "out there" in Authority, test scores, the Right job.
Multiplicity. Diversity of opinion and values is recognized as legitimate in areas where right answers are not yet known. Opinions remain atomistic without pattern or system. No judgments can be made among them so "everyone has a right to his own opinion; none can be called wrong." [not necessarily always true; not all opinions and values are correct or appropriate].
Relativism. Diversity of opinion, values, and judgment derived from coherent sources, evidence, logics, systems, and patterns allowing for analysis and comparison. Some opinions may be found worthless, while there will remain matters about which reasonable people will reasonably disagree. Knowledge is qualitative, dependent on contexts.
Commitment (uppercase C). An affirmation, choice, or decision (career, values, politics, personal relationship) made in the awareness of Relativism (distinct from lowercase c of commitments never questioned). Agency is experienced as within the individual.
-----
Temporizing. Postponement of movement for a year or more.
Escape. Alienation, abandonment of responsibility. Exploitation of Multiplicity and Relativism for avoidance of Commitment.
Retreat. Avoidance of complexity and ambivalence by regression to Dualism colored by hatred of otherness.

Extracted Annotations (9/25/2017, 7:25:39 PM)
"These structurings of meaning, which students revise in an orderly sequence from the relatively simple to the more complex, determine more than your students' perception of you as teacher; they shape the students' ways of learning and color their motives for engagement and disengagement in the whole educational enterprise." (Perry and Chickering 1997:77)
"This chapter illustrates, in students' own words, the typical course of development of students' patterns of thought." (Perry and Chickering 1997:77)
"After the manner of the time, we supposed the differences arose from differences in "personality types." However, as the same students returned to report their experience year by year, we were startled by their reinterpretations of their lives" (Perry and Chickering 1997:77)
"Then these reinterpretations seemed to fall into a logical progression." (Perry and Chickering 1997:77)
""Pilgrim's Progress" of ways of knowing" (Perry and Chickering 1997:77)
"This map of sequential interpretations of meaning, or §E.i!f!'!Jf!_gf_ develop!!J:_f!.fl!., has since been found to be characteristic of the development of students' thinking throughout a variety of educational settings (see this chapter's reference section)." (Perry and Chickering 1997:78)
"Positions are by definition static, and development is by definition movement. It was therefore the Transitions that were so fresh and intriguing." (Perry and Chickering 1997:78)
"True Authorities must be Right, the others are frauds. We remain Right. Others must be different and Wrong. Good Authorities give us problems so we can learn to find the Right Answer by our own independent thought." (Perry and Chickering 1997:79)
"Then some uncertainties and different opinions are real and legitimate temporarily, even for Authorities. They're working on them to get to the Truth." (Perry and Chickering 1997:79)
"Then all thinking must be like this, even for Them. Everything is relative but not equally valid. You have to understand how each context works. Theories are not Truth but metaphors to interpret data with. You have to think about your thinking." (Perry and Chickering 1997:79)
"This is how life will be. I must be wholehearted while tentative, fight for my values yet respect others, believe my deepest values right yet be ready to learn. I see that 1 shall be retracing this whole journey over and over-but, I hope, more wisely." (Perry and Chickering 1997:79)
"Dualism. Division of meaning into two realms-Good versus Bad, Right versus Wrong, We versus They, All that is not Success is Failure, and the like.

Exploitation of Multiplicity and Relativism for avoidance of Commitment. Retreat. Avoidance of complexity and ambivalence by regression to Dualism colored by hatred of otherness." (Perry and Chickering 1997:80)
"Position 1: Basic Duality. This is the Garden of Eden, with the same rules. Here the student is embedded in a world of We-Right-Good (Other-Wrong-Bad is "out there"). We called this Basic Duality. Right Answers for everything exist in the Absolute, and these are known to Authorities, whose role is to mediate (teach) them. Knowledge and goodness are perceived as quantitative accretions of discrete rightnesses to be collected by hard work and obedience" (Perry and Chickering 1997:80)
"Position 2: Multiplicity Prelegitimate. True authority may perform its proper role of direct mediation while complexities confuse pretenders:" (Perry and Chickering 1997:81)
"So in Position 2, the student has given meaning to diversity, uncertainty, and complexity in Authority's realm by accounting for them as unwarranted confusion in poorly qualified Authorities or as mere exercises set by Authority "so we can learn to find The Answer for ourselves."" (Perry and Chickering 1997:82)
"Position 3: Multiplicity Legitimate but Subordinate. If even Scientific Authority does not yet know all Truths in its own domain, one must, presumably, settle for less, at least for now:" (Perry and Chickering 1997:82)
"The Truth is still there to be found in the Laplacean Universe. Some diversity of opinion, therefore, is legitimate, but temporary." (Perry and Chickering 1997:82)
"But in the uncertainty of a legitimized Multiplicity, coupled with a freedom that leaves "amount" of work "up to you" and Authority ignorant of how much you do, rightness and hard work vanish as standards. Nothing seems to be left but "good expres· sion," and Authorities are suspected of different or obscure standards" (Perry and Chickering 1997:83)
"Here, as in every transitional phase, the issues of development hang in the balance. The students have not yet distinguished between legitimate abstract thought and its counterfeit, "bull."" (Perry and Chickering 1997:83)
"Position 4a: Multiplicity (Diversity and Uncertainty) Coordinate with the "known."" (Perry and Chickering 1997:84)
"The pure statement that, in the domain of uncertainty, to "have" an opinion makes it as "right" as any other expresses an egocentric personalism that we called Multiplicity." (Perry and Chickering 1997:85)
"An opinion is related to nothing whatever-evidence, reason, experience, expert judgment, context, principle, or purpose-except to the person who holds it." (Perry and Chickering 1997:85)
"All that Authority cannot prove to be Wrong is Right. This structuring of meaning is therefore still dualistic; the world so construed is not yet open to Relativism's analysis, rules of evidence, disciplines of inference, and concern for the integrity of interpretations and systems of thought." (Perry and Chickering 1997:85)
"What teacher has not experienced despair in trying to explain to a student at this level of development that grades depend, not on the quantity of work and "facts" and, especially, unsupported "opinions," but on the quality of the relationships between data and interpretations?" (Perry and Chickering 1997:85)
"The capacity for meta-thought, for comparing the assumptions and processes of different ways of thinking, has not yet emerged. This is perhaps the most critical moment in the whole adventure for both student and teacher." (Perry and Chickering 1997:85)
""Some facts" is still a quantitative criterion, but it opens the door to the qualitative notion of "better" (rather than right-wrong) opinions." (Perry and Chickering 1997:86)
"Position 4b: Relativism Subordinate. The more trusting Adherent students seemed to find a smoother path. Their integrity seemed less entrenched in Multiplicity's fortress: "They have No Right to Call Me Wrong." Trusting in Authority to have valid grounds for grading even in areas of uncertainty, they set themselves to discover those grounds." (Perry and Chickering 1997:86)
"Here the correction from "what they want" to "the way they want you to think" signals the discovery of the articulation of the "concrete" with the "complex" in "weighing" relationships-a mode of thought that is the structural foundation of Relativism." (Perry and Chickering 1997:87)
"The weighing of "more than one factor," or, as this student later explained, "more than one approach to a problem," forces a comparison of patterns of thought-that is, a thinking about thinking." (Perry and Chickering 1997:87)
"The person, previously a holder of meaning, has become a maker of meaning. For most students, as for this student, the event seems to be conscious and explicit; that is, the initial discovery of meta-thought occurs vividly in foreground," (Perry and Chickering 1997:87)
"Transition from Position 4b (Relativism Subordinate) to Position 5 (Relativism)." (Perry and Chickering 1997:87)
"an understanding of the forms that such transitions take would seem fundamental to curriculum design and teaching strategies. The transitions we have noted so far appear to start with assimilation of some incongruity to an extant paradigm. In the transition just traced, for instance, the student first perceived relativistic thinking simply as a special case in the general dualistic frame of "what They want." But this assimilation turned out to be a Trojan Horse, its inner forms emerging to overwhelm its simplistic host and force an accommodation of fundamental assumptions. Education has thus changed from collecting "what They want" to developing a way of thinking shared by both teacher and student." (Perry and Chickering 1997:88)
"the accommodation takes the form of a radical reversal of part and whole, detail and context: the task of generating and comparing several interpretations of a poem, for example, may first be assimilated as a special case into the larger context of "what They want." In short, contextual relativism is perceived as if it were similar to "right answers." And yet it is also perceived as not quite similar: "As soon as I saw what they wanted ... well, no, not what they wanted but the way they wanted you to think. ... " The shift from "what" (content) to "way" (generalized process), being amove to a higher level of abstraction, frees the "way" to become context, displacing the "what" and relegating it to the status of a particular. In other instances, accommodation appears to be brought about by the sheer weight of quantitative expansion of the assimilated incongruity: uncertainties or diversities multiply until they tip the balance against certainty and homogeneity, precipitating a crisis that forces the construction of a new vision of the world, be it one marked by cynicism, anxiety, or a new sense of freedom." (Perry and Chickering 1997:88)
"use of analogy-what Piaget called decalage-is doubtless involved in these processes and will become more evident in the remaining steps of the journey. Vertical decalage manifests itself in the "lifting" of a pattern of meaning from a concrete experience and using it as an analogue for meaning at a level of greater abstraction." (Perry and Chickering 1997:88)
"This comparison of interpretations and thought systems with one another introduces meta-thinking, the capacity to examine thought, including one's own. Theories become, not "truth," but metaphors or "models," approximating the order of observed data or experience. Comparison, involving systems of logic, assumptions, and inferences, all relative to context, will show some interpretations to be "better," others "worse," many worthless. Yet even after extensive analysis there will remain areas of great concern in which reasonable people will reasonably disagree. It is in this sense that relativism is inescapable and forms the epistemological context of all further developments." (Perry and Chickering 1997:88)
"Position 5: Relativism. Let us now examine the reactions of students to the simultaneous discovery of disciplined meta-thought and irreducible uncertainty." (Perry and Chickering 1997:88)
"This process of drawing an analogy between different areas of experience (horizontal dixalage) highlights the fact that individuals mature their cognitive structures at different rates in different areas of their lives. They can thus transfer the more advanced patterns of thought learned in one area to areas in which they have been thinking more simplistically. The student just quoted has used relativism learned in academic work to broaden his understanding of others and expand his social skills. No doubt this has increased his potential for empathy. However, the salient initial experience is usually one of expanded competence:" (Perry and Chickering 1997:89)
"In this powerful statement, the responsibility and initiative that used to be the domain of Authority (leaving that of obedience to the student), have been internalized. This sense of agency as a learner is expressed first, appropriately enough, in a care for precision of thought within given contexts." (Perry and Chickering 1997:89)
"Their explorations may occupy them for more than a year before they sense a necessity to orient themselves in a relativistic sea through their own Commitments (see the discussion of Positions 6-9)." (Perry and Chickering 1997:89)
"We shall leave our students poised in their journey at this realization that even the most careful analytical thought and logical reasoning will not, in many areas vital to their lives, restore the hope of ultimate rightness and certainty promised by Authority in the Eden they have left behind. "I'm not sure how to make any decision at alL" At this moment, the potential for apathy, anxiety, and depression may appear alarming clinically, and the potential for cynicism equally alarming educationally. Looking back to the dualistic worlds of Positions l-3, we can observe that the students and much of the environment were conspiring to maintain the illusion that meaning existed "out there," along with rightness, power, and sound advice. One should, of course, try to "think for oneself," but when such efforts end in uncertainty and confusion, one naturally appeals to external authority, secure in the expectation of an answer. Students in this frame of mind present themselves to "career counselors" expecting to be told "the right job" or even to be "placed" in it. "What do the tests say my interests are?"" (Perry and Chickering 1997:90)
"Temporizing. Some students simply waited, reconsigning the agency for decision to some event that might turn up:" (Perry and Chickering 1997:90)
"Retreat." (Perry and Chickering 1997:91)
"Escape." (Perry and Chickering 1997:91)
"We know from everyday observations and from studies of adults (Keniston, 1960; Vaillant, 1977; Salyard, in progress) that the alienation we called Escape can become a settled condition. For the students reporting their recovery of care, however, their period of alienation appears as a time of transition. In this time the self is lost through the very effort to hold onto it in the face of inexorable change in the world's appearance. It is a space of meaninglessness between received belief and creative faith. In their rebirth they experience in themselves the origin of meanings, which they had previously expected to come to them from outside." (Perry and Chickering 1997:92)
"Position 6: Commitment Foreseen. Students who were able to come more directly to grips with the implications of Relativism frequently referred to their forward movement in terms of commitments." (Perry and Chickering 1997:92)
"Positions 7-9: Evolving Commitments." (Perry and Chickering 1997:94)
"If one knows one's Commitments are to flow and fluctuate and conflict and reform, is one committed at all? This is the first of the many paradoxes the students encountered in working out their Commitments." (Perry and Chickering 1997:96)
"In reporting the original study, I pointed to an array of such polarities in the account of a single student in his senior year (Perry, 1970, pp. 167-176). They included certainty versus doubt, focus versus breadth, idealism versus realism, tolerance versus contempt, internal choice versus external influence, action versus contemplation, stability versus flexibility, and own values versus others' values. Because a polarity of this kind does not represent the poles of a continuum, it cannot be resolved simply by finding some balance point or compromise." (Perry and Chickering 1997:96)
"It holds its vision with a kind of provisional ultimacy: remembering its inadequacy and open to new truth but also committed to the absoluteness of the truth which it inadequately comprehends and expresses." (Perry and Chickering 1997:96)
"Symbols are understood as symbols. They are seen through in a double sense: ( 1) their time-place relativity is acknowledged and (2) their character as relative representations of something more nearly absolute is affirmed [Fowler, 1978, p. 22] 0" (Perry and Chickering 1997:97)
"Again, Basseches quotes Fowler regarding the costs of this "identification beyond tribal, racial, class, or ideological boundaries. To be genuine, it must know the cost of such community and be prepared to pay the cost" (Fowler, 1978, pp. 6-7). Basseches' distinction regarding this cost is trenchant: "The cost of this openness to universal community of identification surely includes having to embrace viewpoints in conflict with and contradictory to one's own, rather than avoiding those conflicts with 'separate but equal' or 'live and let live' attitude."" (Perry and Chickering 1997:97)
"It is in the affirmation of Commitments that the themes of epistemology, intellectual development, ethics, and identity merge. Knowing that "such and such is true" is an act of personal commitment (Polanyi, 1958) from which all else follows. Commitments structure the relativistic world by providing focus in it and affirming the inseparable relation of the knower and the known." (Perry and Chickering 1997:97)
"In the poignant realization of our separateness and aloneness in these affirmations, we are sorely in need of community. Our mentors can, if they are wise and humble, welcome us into a community paradoxically welded by this shared realization of aloneness. Among our peers we can be nourished with the strength and joy of intimacy, through the perilous sharing of vulnerability." (Perry and Chickering 1997:97)
"Perhaps the best model for growth is neither the straight line nor the circle, but a helix, perhaps with an expanding radius to show that when we face the "same" old issues we do so from a different and broader perspective (Perry, 1977b)." (Perry and Chickering 1997:97)
"Lee Knefelkamp and Widick reported on college-level courses taught through "Developmental Instruction" based on the scheme. They adjusted four instructional variables to their students' Positions on the scheme: (1) diversity, (2) learning activity, (3) degree of structuring of assignments, and (4) personalism" (Perry and Chickering 1997:99)
"Elaborations and Extensions" (Perry and Chickering 1997:99)
"4 dialectical logic in the upper stages of development. King ( I 977a) documents a decline in strictly Piagetian formal operations from high school through graduate school, remarking that such logic, so necessary to solutions of "puzzles" in physics, is inadequate for addressing "problems" in life. I would add that a premise common to most formal logic, namely that nothing can be A and not-A at the same" (Perry and Chickering 1997:100)
"Use of the Scheme to Illuminate Particular Areas of Education." (Perry and Chickering 1997:100)
"Design and Evaluation of Curriculums, Instruction, and Advising" (Perry and Chickering 1997:101)
"Instrumentation." (Perry and Chickering 1997:101)
"Two standards apply to all such instrumentations. Experimenters will naturally 5 require quite precise assessments. For ordinary teaching purposes, however, rough-hewn groupings of students evidencing dualistic thinking, multiplistic thinking, and relativistic thinking will provide ample base for such differential instruction as is economically possible in most classes." (Perry and Chickering 1997:102)
"Pending the further development of measurements, it is encouraging to note that in classes with up to forty students, teachers who have simply tuned their ears to the distinctions among modes of thought outlined in this chapter have found themselves able to distinguish students in the major levels of development in vivo. Following Knefelkamp's model, they have then been able to create two or three combinations of different supports and challenges appropriate to the major groupings in the class." (Perry and Chickering 1997:102)
"Cognitive Styles, Learning Strategies, and Development" (Perry and Chickering 1997:102)
"Since this student has perceived anew the nature of knowledge and of Authority's relation to it, he has discarded obedience in favor of his own agency as a maker of meaning. He dares to select, to judge, to build. As he studies, his intent is now not simply to conciliate Authority, external or internalized, but to learn on his own initiative." (Perry and Chickering 1997:103)
"From the student's literal interpretation of his assignments and his undifferentiated word-by-word reading, we might guess that he would be rated as stylistically field-dependent rather than field-independent. The probable flatness of his notes and the inevitable confusion among cumulative details in his memory would be congruent with a leveling rather than sharpening manner of cognition. We would rate him more cautious than risk-taking, more constricted than flexible in control, more receptive than perceptive, more nan-ow than broad in scanning, more data-minded than strategy minded, and more descriptive than analytical conceptually." (Perry and Chickering 1997:103)
"Stability and Mutability of Learning Styles." (Perry and Chickering 1997:103)
"Cognitive "Styles" Versus "Strategies" (Perry and Chickering 1997:106)
"cognitive style be used to refer to the relatively stable, preferred configuration of tactics that a person tends to employ somewhat inflexibly in a wide range of environmental negotiations." (Perry and Chickering 1997:106)
"The word strategy could then be used to refer to a configuration of tactics chosen or constructed from an array of available alternatives to address a particular kind of environmental negotiation. In short. a strategy would be dominant over "style."" (Perry and Chickering 1997:106)
"Values and Costs" (Perry and Chickering 1997:107)
"developmental phenomenology." (Perry and Chickering 1997:108)
"I want to burst out to you, my reader, "Look! Do I sound crazy in saying that the students are the source of the meanings they will make of you? All right, so you feel that you are making meaning for them; you know your subject, they do not. But it is the meanings they make of your meanings that matter!"" (Perry and Chickering 1997:108)
