Notably, Dr. Mickelson and her researchwere referenced in a Supreme Court decision on schoolracialcomposition.ShehasalsoservedasaconsultanttotheNorth Carolina State Board of Education and to theSuperintendent of Public Instruction. Her work trulyexemplifies the 2016 NCARE conference theme of“EducationalResearchasPublicScholarship”.

In 2015, Dr.Mickelson was also honored with the Elizabeth G.Cohen Distinguished Career in Applied Sociology of Education Award, awarded by theSociologyofEducationSIGoftheAmericanEducationalResearchAssociation.Mickelson’s 2015 publication, “Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow: School Desegregationand Resegregation in Charlotte”, co‐edited with Stephen Samuel Smith and Amy HawnNelson,providesacompellinganalysisoftheforcesandchoicesthathaveshapedthetrendtoward the resegregation of public schools. The book recounts the last forty years ofCharlotte’s desegregation and resegregation, putting education reform in political andeconomic context.

“RationalResponses:HowTeachersReacttoHigh‐StakesTestsintheContextofAcademicTrackingandtheLongTermEffects”JasonGiersch,Ph.D.AssistantProfessor,PoliticalScienceandPublicAdministrationUniversityofNorthCarolinaatCharlotteBecausehighschoolstudentsareroutinelysegregatedintohonorsandnon‐honors academic tracks, teachers have opportunities to provide
differentinstructiontodifferentgroupsofstudentsbasedonthoseteachers’assessmentsofwhateachclassneedsintermsofpreparationforhigh‐stakestests.Thefirstpartofthismixedmethodsstudyusesinterviewsofhighschoolteacherstofindouthowtheychangetheir instructionbetweenhonorsandnon‐honorsclasses in thecontextofaccountabilitypolicies. Results indicate that teachers treat the two tracks very differently, typicallyplacing much greater emphasis on test preparation in non‐honors classes and moreenrichment and higher‐learning activities in honors courses. The second part is a large‐scaleanalysisofthelong‐termconsequencesofthesedifferentteachingpractices.Resultssuggestthatrelativetohonorsstudents,thosestudentsinnon‐honorscourseswhodowellon standardized assessments are not as well prepared as honors students with similarscores. I conclude that the overemphasis on test preparation is producing non‐honorsstudentswhosetestscoressuggesttheyarepreparedforcollegeevenwhentheyarenot.
