The results back up Bandura&#8217;s social cognitive theory, which postulates that mastery experience is the most impactful source of efficacy. Correspondingly, all types of agri-science teachers in Texas need to keep getting mastery experiences, like micro-teaching and teaching practicum, and verbal persuasion needs to be improved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Using poetic dialogues to enhance community-based extension impact evaluation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/site.caes.uga.edu\/lammlab\/files\/2023\/02\/sanders_at_SouthernAAAE-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"A young woman stands beside a powerpoint presentation in a room filled with academic colleagues at a conference.\" class=\"wp-image-1316\" srcset=\"https:\/\/site.caes.uga.edu\/lammlab\/files\/2023\/02\/sanders_at_SouthernAAAE-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/site.caes.uga.edu\/lammlab\/files\/2023\/02\/sanders_at_SouthernAAAE-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/site.caes.uga.edu\/lammlab\/files\/2023\/02\/sanders_at_SouthernAAAE-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/site.caes.uga.edu\/lammlab\/files\/2023\/02\/sanders_at_SouthernAAAE-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/site.caes.uga.edu\/lammlab\/files\/2023\/02\/sanders_at_SouthernAAAE-1-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">In an oral presentation, Dr. Katie Sanders shared work from her dissertation centered around poetic dialogues.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Authors: <a href=\"https:\/\/site.caes.uga.edu\/lammlab\/people\/catherine-e-sanders\/\" data-type=\"caes-people\" data-id=\"34\">Catherine E.
