For ALL research products (including papers and presentations) I use the American
Psychological Association's Ethical Principles and Code of Conduct (2010; Standard 8.12ac) to determine contribution to the work. For each work that I list, I indicate whether these
contributions took the following form
(A) obtaining funding for the project;
(B) conceptualization of the work;
(C) substantial original writing;
(D) statistical and/or methodological design;
(E) statistical analyses;
(F) data collections;
(G) editing of the work; and/or
(H) supervision, mentoring, or advising of any of the above.
Also consistent with APA Ethical Standard 8.12b, the order of authorship on the presentations
listed reflects the relative scientific or professional contributions of the individuals involved. The
list of work includes notations of co-authors or co-presenters who were students (*graduate or
**undergraduate) at the time the work occurred. Consistent with APA Ethical Standard 8.12c,
students are listed as principal author on presentations resulting from their doctoral dissertations,
master’s theses, and research tasks. In these cases, contributions to the work by the faculty
member (Glenn Adams) may exceed what one might infer from relative position in the order of
authorship.

Teaching Awards and Innovations
(AUT 2013) I collaborated on creation of a new interdisciplinary course, Decolonizing
Knowledge, which I taught as PSYC 993: Critical Psychology and which my collaborator
Byron Caminero-Santangelo (KU Dept of English) taught as ENGL 980: Postcolonial
Literature.
(AUG 2013) Along with Andi Witczak and Jomella Watson-Thompson, I proposed and
performed linked sessions on teaching KU Core Goal 5: Social Responsibility and Ethics. The
title of my session was Assessing KU Core Goal #5 “Practice social responsibility and
demonstrate ethical behavior.”
(SPR 2013) I served as primary organizer of the third annual Kansas African Studies Center
(KASC) Graduate Research Symposium. Six students from KU Departments of English,
Geography, Philosophy, Religious Studies, and Special Education presented research to an
interdisciplinary audience of more than 7 KASC faculty.
(AUT 2012) I created a new graduate seminar, PSYC 993: Ecological Psychology to revive a
long-dormant perspective for which the KU Department of Psychology had been an
internationally renowned center.
(SPR 2012) I served as primary organizer of the second annual Kansas African Studies Center
(KASC) Graduate Research Symposium. Nine students from KU Departments of African
and African American Studies, Communication Studies, English, French and Italian,
Geography, History, Political Science, and Special Education, (plus one non-KU student)
presented research to an interdisciplinary audience of more than 8 KASC faculty.
(AUT 2011) I received an award from the KU Center for Global and International Studies to
adapt my PSYC 545: Culture and Psychology course for use as a core elective in their M.A.
program. I taught this course for the first time in AUT 2012.
(SUM 2011) I received an award from the KU College of Liberal Arts and Sciences to adapt my
internationalized version of PSYC 360: Social Psychology into an online (i.e., web-based)
version for the KU Center for Continuing Education. I taught this course in Summer 2011 and
again in SPR 2012.
(SUM 2011). I delivered a lecture, Growing up in Global Africa: Patterns of Identity and
Relationship, in the 2011 Kansas African Studies Center (KASC) Teacher Summer Institute,
Engaging Youth Culture.
(SPR 2011) I gave a presentation, Collective memory practices as Tools for Reconciliation: The
Case of Sierra Leone, for the KASC Ujamaa Brownbag Series.
(SPR 2011) I served as primary organizer of the first annual KASC Graduate Research
Symposium. Thirteen graduate students from KU Departments of African and African
American Studies, Anthropology, Communication Studies, Geography, Political Science,
Psychology, and Special Education (plus one non-KU student) presented research and
received feedback from an interdisciplinary audience of more than 10 KASC faculty
members.
(JAN 2010) Recipients of the Society for Personality and Social Psychology Graduate Diversity
Travel Awards nominated me as an influential scholar.
(JAN 2008) Recipients of the Society for Personality and Social Psychology Graduate Diversity

Teaching Awards and Innovations (continued)
(AUT 2007) Along with Garth Myers (KU Department of Geography), I developed an
interdisciplinary graduate seminar that I taught as PSYC 993: Self and Identity.
(AUT 2005) I applied and was selected to participate in the Center for Teaching Excellence
(CTE; University of Kansas) Faculty Seminar. As a result, I have created a web-based
portfolio that presents my teaching innovations (and attempts to measure their effectiveness)
to an online audience.
(AUG 2005) I applied and was selected to participate in the CTE Service Learning Institute. As
a result, I developed a service learning option for the group project assignment of my Culture
and Psychology course. I first (and most recently) taught the course with this option in SPR
2007.
(MAY 2005) I applied and was selected to participate in the KU Office of International
Programs (OIP) workshop on "Internationalizing the Curriculum". As part of this workshop, I
proposed a new, "internationalized" version of PSYC 360: Social Psychology that satisfies
university requirements for KU's award-winning Global Awareness Program. As part of this
plan, I proposed to track the effectiveness of the course in promoting global awareness. I
subsequently implemented this plan in SPR 2006, AUT 2006, and AUT 2007 semesters; I
presented results of the empirical analysis of global awareness in a paper for the SPR 2007
International Seminar (see section on research); I presented an updated version of this paper
in NOV 2007 for the Globalization(s) Seminar sponsored by the KU Hall Center for the
Humanities; and my graduate student co-authors and I are preparing an elaborated version of
this paper for submission to a research journal.
(MAR 2005) l received a letter of commendation for excellent teaching from the
Psychology Department at the University of Toronto.
(MAY 2003) I applied and was selected to participate in the CTE Best Practices Institute.
