School library provision for students with disabilities was evaluated in a four year study completed in 1999. The study focussed on the relationship between library and special education staff, and the effect this had on access to library services and the acquisition of information literacy by students with disabilities. Empirical data reflecting the current level of service provision in two Australian states was collected in a survey. This data was complemented by observations and interviews with special education and library staff and students in 15 case study schools. The research showed that as the number of students with disabilities enrolled in mainstream schools was increasing, school librarians had to be aware of the needs of these students, in order to provide them with adequate library services. Although examples of good practice were found, there is need for improvement in service delivery for these students. Much of this could be achieved by enhanced communication and cooperation between school librarians and special education teachers. 相似文献

School library media specialists wear many hats within their school libraries, classrooms, and districts. Whether these roles
are formally acknowledged or not, library media specialists (LMSs) are functioning as co-teachers, curriculum designers, website
managers, technology troubleshooters, administrators, and in-service staff development providers. In an era of decreased funding
and increased budget-trimming, however, positions for qualified LMS librarians are especially vulnerable. This article presents
the result of a multistate survey of administrators and teachers perceptions with regards to their impact on the school’s
learning process. 相似文献

This qualitative inquiry into using microcomputers to access an on-line electronic encyclopedia revealed the salient issues
for eighth-graders in using computer technology and what they valued in their videotex experience. Assigned to gather information
both electronically and from traditional library materials to write a science theme, students with no prior computer experience
exhibited very little technological apprehension. Nearly all the students preferred electronic search by computer to print
search in books and periodicals. Underlying student reports appeared to be the perception that using a computer relieved them
from the process of note-taking and some editing judgments that using print materials would require. Overall, middle-school
students in this situation readily accommodate computers and videotex within their ongoing school context but assigned the
new technology greater value than traditional learning media. 相似文献

The information age has given library media specialists an unprecedented opportunity to play a leading role in helping teachers, administrators, and especially students access and use information intelligently. As the school??s premier information specialist; the library media specialist has a unique role to play in helping everyone in the school develop a true twenty-first century habit of mind: a habit of thinking about information itself as a basic and powerful tool for learning deeply and living well in the information age. This article explores this role in the ??brave new?? digital age and offers a number of collaborative strategies that can help the library media specialist work with the entire school community. 相似文献

Wikipedia, the free online encyclopedia that can be edited by users, is growing both in the number of content articles written as well as the number of registered users. Students rely on Wikipedia (Purcell et al., 2012) and Wikipedia, through tools, is enabling users to make better decisions regarding the information they find (Gray, 2013; Kyrios, 2013; Lamb & Johnson, 2013). However, are teachers and librarians in secondary schools learning to embrace the online encyclopedia? This exploratory study surveyed classroom teachers and librarians/library staff regarding their perceptions of the effects of Wikipedia use by students in research assignments, their perceptions of the need for school policy regarding the use of Wikipedia by students, and regarding their knowledge of the Page Assessment Guide designed to help users judge the reliability of the information on a page. 相似文献

As information professionals, engineering librarians have the primary responsibilities of providing access to engineering information resources and giving instruction in how to use these resources. In the case of undergraduate engineering students, this extends to building their information literacy skills, an important component in helping them become lifelong learners; to be curious and independent, and to take greater responsibility for their own learning. The challenge in building information literacy in engineering students is to acquaint the students with the array of library resources available to them and to help them intelligently navigate the systems that contain the information. Too often, information literacy instruction is presented as a set of procedures for locating a hypothetical resource in the library. However, students are not interested in finding some resource randomly chosen as an example; they want to find resources that they perceive as being important and useful. During the 2005–2006 academic year, the engineering librarians at Drexel University took this into consideration and employed a new methodology for information literacy instruction: combining an online tutorial covering basic library skills with face-to-face consultations between student design teams and the engineering librarians. By utilizing varied instruction techniques aimed at different learning styles, with a strong active learning component delivered at the student's point of need—when they have a concrete, perceived information need—information literacy instruction can be improved so that engineering students retain more and develop lifelong learning skills. 相似文献

US school libraries are required to ensure that schoolchildren and school staff with disabilities have equal opportunity to use and benefit from library facilities and information services under federal law. However, evidence indicates teacher‐librarians (TLs) often lack the training, knowledge and skills to provide programmes and services that meet the needs of students with disabilities. Project ENABLE (Expanding Nondiscriminatory Access by Librarians Everywhere) was created to respond to this shortfall by designing, implementing and evaluating a professional development programme in New York State. The project applies a social model of disability to help 100 TLs, special educators and general educators further develop their skills and resources by teaming together to create an inclusive environment for all students. This is achieved through the use of universal design principles, appropriate assistive and other technologies, an emphasis on person‐first language and sensitivity simulations, a focus on inclusive lesson planning, and by developing collaboration capacity among participant teams. Curriculum development, data collection and analyses are presented. The effect of the Project ENABLE trainings was significant in terms of higher levels of skill and knowledge reported by participants for creating accessible library programmes, advancing inclusive education and building effective collaborations. Drawing from their workshop learning and resources, participant teams developed action plans to implement during the 2011–2012 school year. This project underscores the importance of TLs in the education of all students, including those with disabilities. Higher education and local professional development programmes must place greater emphasis on preparing TLs to perform this role effectively and confidently. 相似文献

This is an ethnographic study of a newly created math, science, and technology elementary magnet school in a rural community
fiercely committed to cultural preservation while facing unprecedented economic instability brought on by massive loss of
manufacturing jobs. Our goal was to understand global- and community-level contexts that influenced the school’s science curriculum,
the ways the school promoted itself to the community, and the implicit meanings of science held by school staff, parents and
community members. Main sources of data were the county’s newspaper articles from 2003 to 2006, the school’s, town’s, and
business leaders’ promotional materials, and interviews with school staff, parents, and community members. A key finding was
the school’s dual promotion of science education and character education. We make sense of this “science with character” curriculum
by unpacking the school and community’s entanglements with historical (cultural preservation), political (conservative politics,
concerns for youth depravity), and economic (globalization) networks. We describe the ways those entanglements enabled certain
reproductive meanings of school science (as add-on, suspect, and elitist) and other novel meanings of science (empathetic,
nurturing, place-based). This study highlights the school as a site of struggle, entangled in multiple networks of practice
that influence in positive, negative, and unpredictable ways, the enacted science curriculum. 相似文献

ABSTRACTIn this article, the authors, based on a process developed in the context of US higher education, demonstrate a model for undergraduate student research skill development that involves academic staff writing collaborative book reviews with undergraduate students and librarians, especially librarians that are also academic staff with relevant content expertise. This model can and should be modified to fit various disciplinary contexts and academic circumstances, potentially around the world. The authors acknowledge that this model will be more useful for academic staff in the social sciences and humanities as compared to the so-called hard or natural sciences. The authors reimagine book reviews based on the notion of ‘scholarship as conversation’ in library science. As evidence, the authors describe the origins of this unique collaborative process and document the impact of academic staff, librarians, and undergraduate students partnering to increase the academic rigor of book reviews. Contributing to scholarship at the intersection of research skill development, information literacy, and embedded librarianship, this article identifies a strategic opportunity for collaboration that makes writing reviews more engaging and educationally productive for students, academic staff, and librarians. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to examine how teachers enact the same written algebra curriculum materials in different classes.
The study addresses this issue by comparing the types of algebraic activity (Kieran, 2004) enacted in two 7th grade classes taught by the same teacher, using the same textbook. Data sources include lesson observations
and an interview with the teacher. The findings show that students in the two classes were offered somewhat different algebraic
experiences. At one school, more emphasis was placed on global/meta-level activities (activities that are not exclusive to
algebra and suggest general mathematical processes), whereas at the other school, more emphasis was placed on transformational
activities (“rule-based” algebraic activities). Analysis of the sources of the differences related to the ways in which the
teacher used and enacted the curriculum materials in the two classes revealed that these were linked to the teacher’s attempts
to be attentive to the students in the class and to the nature of the students’ work. 相似文献

Students have been largely ignored in discussions about how best to teach science, and many students feel the curriculum is
detached from their lives and interests. This article presents a strategy for incorporating students’ interests into the formal
Biology curriculum, by drawing on the political meaning of “shadow government” as alternative policies developed by parties
not in office. A “shadow curriculum” thus reflects the interests and information needs of those who have no voice in deciding
what the formal curriculum should include, although they are the ones who are most influenced by it. High school students’
interests in three Biology topics were identified (n = 343) and retested on another student sample (n = 375), based on their solicited questions as indicators for interests. The results of this exploratory case study showed
that half of the questions asked by students in the areas of genetics, the cardiovascular system and the reproductive system
are not addressed by the national curriculum. Students’ questions were then expressed in the curricular language of principles,
phenomena and concepts in order to create a shadow curriculum. A procedure that could be used by other researchers and practitioners
to guide the development of a curriculum that is more aligned with student interests is suggested. 相似文献

A randomized experiment was performed in seventeen junior high schools in which students in the experimental group received a special six-week library oriented treatment designed to improve students’ understanding of, attitudes toward, and use of the school library. The treatment was found to have a significant effect on library use and library/librarian attitudes but no effect on reading attitudes. Although there were large differences among the librarians, there was no significant interaction between treatments and librarians. 相似文献

In recent years, there has been an increase in students with refugee experience in the UK, the US, Europe and Australia. These
students face many barriers to education, and appropriately educating this diverse student population presents many challenges
to schools and education departments. We argue that a whole of school approach that includes school structures, culture and
pedagogy is needed to provide equity for students with refugee experience. This approach to reform requires that the ‘structures
and programs [that] are designed for a dominant group’ (DETE, South Australian Curriculum Standards and Accountability Framework,
South Australia 2001), and which disadvantage minority groups, are challenged and changed. Implementing such change raises many practical difficulties,
and there are few documented examples of good practice. This prompted the authors’ ethnographic study of a South Australian
primary school, with a New Arrivals Program, which positions itself as taking a whole of school approach to educational reform
for refugees. This paper reports on the structural changes the school has implemented in its class organisation, staff roles
and curriculum. We consider the effects of government funding and neoliberal education policy on these reforms. 相似文献

The spiral bianshi curriculum, an improvement on bianshi teaching developed by Gu (2000) and in line with Marton’s theory of variation (Marton & Booth, 1997), was tried out in a primary school in Hong Kong. This improved theoretical framework for the spiral bianshi curriculum comprises
four types of bianshi problems—the inductive bianshi, the broadening bianshi, the deepening bianshi, and the applicative bianshi.
Based on this framework, the research team developed a set of teaching materials on the three topics of division of fraction,
speed, and volume. The materials were tried out in 21 Primary 6 classes (a total of 686 students) in a school. The effect
was compared with a reference group using standard textbook materials in Hong Kong. A series of instruments, pre-tests, and
post-tests were administered to gauge the effects on students’ performance in solving routine and non-routine problems, as
well as the affective outcomes including self-concept, attitude towards learning mathematics, approaches to learning, and
conceptions of mathematics. The intervention effects of the experimental design were examined by hierarchical regression analysis.
The research reveals that students using spiral bianshi teaching materials performed significantly better than their counterparts
using standard textbook materials. However, no significant differences were identified among affective learning outcome variables
despite the positive results on cognitive learning outcomes. The findings indicate that spiral bianshi curriculum has high
potential in enhancing students’ learning effectiveness. However, further studies are needed to map its strengths in detail. 相似文献
