Twenty-two faculty and graduate students were interviewed in one college of education in order to understand what the college
and its constituents view as the skills, habits of mind, and dispositions needed to obtain a Ph.D. in Education. Analysis
of the data was conducted using professional socialization as a theoretical framework, allowing for an understanding of the
different perspectives of this topic as viewed through a developmental lens. Implications for theory and practice are included.

The Creation of OpenCourseWare at MIT 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:2
Hal Abelson 《Journal of Science Education and Technology》2008,17(2):164-174
This paper traces the genesis of the MIT OpenCourseWare project from its initial strategic precursors in 1999 and 2000, through
its launch in 2001 and its subsequent evolution. The story told here illuminates the interplay among institutional leadership,
and strategic planning, and with university culture in launching major educational technology enterprises. It also shows how
initiatives can evolve in unexpected ways, and can even surpass their initial goals. The paper concludes with an overview
of challenges facing OpenCourseWare in moving from the end of its production ramp-up and towards sustainability.

Since many teachers and students recognize other kinds of knowledge (faith) based on other ways of knowing, consideration
of these realities is appropriate for the science education community. Understanding the multitude of ways that clergy view
relationships between science and faith (i.e. alternative ways of knowing) would assist in understanding various ways that
people address complex issues arising from ideas about science and faith. We administered a questionnaire composed of multiple-choice
and short answer items to 63 United Methodist ministers. Findings included (1) that formal, organized faith contexts (e.g.
church services) serve as informal science education opportunities, (2) participants demonstrated considerable diversity regarding
the types of relationships developed between science and faith, and (3) participants recognized a need exists for better understandings
of science and its relationship to faith for them, their colleagues, and their congregations.

Faculty experiences of innovative approaches to learning and the changes to their knowledge emerging from such experiences
constitute an important area of inquiry that has to date largely been ignored or has been approached with research methods
ill-suited to examining such experiences. This paper adopts interpretative meta-ethnography as its research framework to investigate
the changes to faculty knowledge that occur when they adopt problem-based learning (PBL). The paper presents themes that emerged
through the analysis and argues for future inquiry.

A research framework for creative and imitative reasoning 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Johan Lithner 《Educational Studies in Mathematics》2008,67(3):255-276
This conceptual research framework addresses the problem of rote learning by characterising key aspects of the dominating
imitative reasoning and the lack of creative mathematical reasoning found in empirical data. By relating reasoning to thinking
processes, student competencies, and the learning milieu it explains origins and consequences of different reasoning types.

The whole mode of Galileo’s discovery of the Law of Inertia is an excellent exemplar of the Nature of Science. The law can,
moreover be shown to be a direct consequence of the hypothesis that space is homogeneous and isotropic and time is homogeneous

Alice Miller’s work provides a theoretical framework to assess the effects of child abuse and its relationship to the development
of creativity, hatred, and violence in the novel Ender’s Game. Analysis focuses on the extent to which children are manipulated in order to meet the needs of adults, the presence of behaviors
such as the repression of feelings and memories, the idealization of perpetrators, blind obedience to authority, and the expression
of repressed feelings in destructive acts, and identification of a helping witness as predictors for the actions and outcomes
in this story.

In this rejoinder to Bryan Brown and John Reveles, we highlight the facts that (a) sociocultural theories of learning do not
go far enough because they fail to address a number of issues and (b) we require concepts such as power and positionality
to understand science learning.

Peter Wood 《Academic Questions》2007,20(4):277-294
This essay on the ethical mission of the university explores extremes of anti-social behavior, visiting numerous crime scenes
before concluding that contemporary higher education has lost the capacity—and even the language—for taking character development
seriously. In his attempt to determine whether coincidently traditional-liberationist-diversiphilic-apathetic colleges can
morally improve their charges, Peter Wood collects a wrenching compendium of violent academic mayhem.

This study examines ways of approaching deductive reasoning of people involved in mathematics education and/or logic. The
data source includes 21 individual semi-structured interviews. The data analysis reveals two different approaches. One approach
refers to deductive reasoning as a systematic step-by-step manner for solving problems, both in mathematics and in other domains.
The other approach emphasizes formal logic as the essence of the deductive inference, distinguishing between mathematics and
other domains in the usability of deductive reasoning. The findings are interpreted in light of theory and practice.

This paper presents an investigation of management accounting in four major Italian universities, which have been struggling
to build their strategy in a context of significant change. Following many OECD countries the Italian government has been
changing its higher education system by giving more autonomy to universities. These changes pose a number of challenges for
management and accounting systems in Italian Universities. Drawing on self-referential theory and its applications to accounting
research the paper analyses the construction of Strategic Management Accounting (SMA) in four Italian universities, which
are immersed in a similar context of change. The focus is specifically on two aspects of decisions: (1) resource allocation
and (2) new academic programme.

This empirical paper considers the different purposes for which teachers use examples in elementary mathematics teaching,
and how well the actual examples used fit these intended purposes. For this study, 24 mathematics lessons taught by prospective
elementary school teachers were videotaped. In the spirit of grounded theory, the purpose of the analysis of these lessons
was to discover, and to construct theories around, the ways that these novice teachers could be seen to draw upon their mathematics
teaching knowledge-base in their lesson preparation and in their observed classroom instruction. A highly-pervasive dimension
of the findings was these teachers’ choice and use of examples. Four categories of uses of examples are identified and exemplified:
these are related to different kinds of teacher awareness.

This paper examines theoretical linkages between Anzaldua’s borderland scholarship, in particular the notion of mestiza consciousness,
and participatory action research. Two studies with high school and college co-researchers falling along different points
of the PAR spectrum are described to illustrate these conceptual linkages. Points in the process including critical decisions
in crafting questions and conducting actions, reflections on who are the knowledge holders and producers, and struggles with
responsibilities and vulnerabilities doing this work, are discussed through a lens of mestiza consciousness.

In this paper we analyse the language used by kindergarten children and their teacher while they discuss the fairness of two
games that involved the concept of chance. Their discussions show that the children are able to overcome their primary intuitions
concerning the fairness of a game and to comprehend the important role of materials. The children mostly used counting strategies
in order to justify their opinion; this reveals the establishment of a primary discursive community based on the premise that
each opinion should be justified in order to be accepted by the other children and the teacher.

In an earlier article I drew a distinction between two general types of listening. In one the listener brings pre-determined
categories to bear in extracting useful information from the speaker’s utterance. In the other the listener suspends such
categories to hear as much as possible in the utterance. This distinction has been challenged by Sophie Haroutunian-Gordon.
This article responds to her critique.
