This study was conducted in a Reggio inspired child care classroom of 4-year olds where the fundamental principles of Reggio
Emilia preschools are interpreted for a Canadian context. Qualitative case study methodology was employed to investigate how
social interaction plays a role in young children’s learning processes. Drawing on social constructivist views of children’s
learning and socialization, children’s discussions and interactions within a preschool learning group were examined. Examination
of children’s discourse is valuable not only for understanding individual and group learning experiences but also for illuminating
children’s agency and their active roles in their own learning. The study focused on the in-depth study of six children’s
activities during a ‘Shades of Pink’ project. As the project, ‘Shades of Pink’ unfolded, the children faced cognitive conflict while they were talking about the details of Monet’s painting, but worked
toward building common understandings. In this study, children are considered to be meaning makers and active participants
in their own learning processes. In addition, the relationships between children became a context in which the co-construction
of theories, interpretations and various understandings of reality took place. Small group work became a basis for creating
unity, a space in which thoughts took shape as well as a way to compare interpretations; with the result that new thoughts
and meanings were produced. 相似文献

It is now generally recognized that a language impairment in preschool children may be predictive of later linguistic, reading,
and academic difficulties. Language intervention procedures, derived from theoretically-based principles of language development
and implemented in a child’s regular classroom environment, may benefit children at risk for persistent language and learning
problems. This paper describes the development and application of individualized intervention procedures in a classroom for
preschool language-impaired children. The discussion focuses on selected language development principles which helped determine
the setting, timing, interactive participants, purpose, and content of the language intervention program. Resulting changes
in language comprehension and production are reported based on individual classroom performance as well as a comparison of
pre-and posttest scores for a range of comprehension skills.

Teachers' Attitudes Towards Mainstreaming and Their Pupils' Perceptions of Their Classroom Learning Environment 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In spite of the widespread adoption of policies on mainstreaming, and more recently on inclusive education for children and
young people with special educational needs, little is actually known about the relationship between what teachers think about
such policies and the type of learning environments that they provide. In this study in New Zealand, a sample of regular primary
school teachers (N= 63) were categorised according to ‘high’, ‘moderate’ or ‘low’ scores on a scale which measures their views on mainstreaming
policies and practices. The pupils (N= 1729) of these teachers also completed a scale measuring perceptions of their classroom learning environments. Children
taught by teachers who espoused highly positive attitudes towards mainstreaming were found to have significantly higher levels
of classroom satisfaction and marginally lower levels of classroom friction than children taught by teachers with less positive
attitudes. Implications of these findings are discussed for further research on the role of teacher attitudes in the successful
inclusion of children and young people with special needs and for policies on the implementation of effective inclusive practice.

In this article we analyze the dialogic learning of one pair of students in order to investigate how these students cope with a collaborative learning situation in the classroom. Our aim is to substantiate the claims that not only are young students (8 year olds) capable of solving mathematical problems collaboratively, but that they also take an active role in regulating their collaborative learning activities. More specifically, our claim is that children appear to apply constructs of “mathematical level raising”, “social interaction” and “division of time” to steer their own collaborative learning and that they are rather successful in balancing these three aspects. The analysis is exploratory, but this new perspective on collaborative learning is relevant theoretically and consequential for classroom practice. 相似文献

When we consider the gap between mathematics at elementary and secondary levels, and given the logical nature of mathematics
at the latter level, it can be seen as important that the aspects of children's logical development in the upper grades in
elementary school be clarified. In this study we focus on the teaching and learning of “division with decimals” in a 5th grade
classroom, because it is well known to be difficult for children to understand the meaning of division with decimals, caused
by certain conceptions which children have implicitly or explicitly. In this paper we discuss how children develop their logical
reasoning beyond such difficulties/misconceptions in the process of making sense of division with decimals in the classroom
setting. We then suggest that children's explanations based on two kinds of reversibility (inversion and reciprocity) are
effective in overcoming the difficulties/misconceptions related to division with decimals, and that they enable children to
conceive multiplication and division as a system of operations. 相似文献

This study examined the extent to which observed teaching practices and self-reported teacher stress predict children’s learning
motivation and phonological awareness in kindergarten. The pre-reading skills of 1,268 children were measured at the beginning
of their kindergarten year. Their learning motivation and phonological awareness were assessed in the following spring. Questionnaires
measuring teacher stress were filled out by 137 kindergarten teachers. A pair of trained observers used the Classroom Assessment
Scoring System (Pianta et al. 2008) to observe 49 kindergarten teachers from the whole sample on their emotional support, classroom organization, and instructional
support. The results of multilevel modeling showed that low teacher stress and high classroom organization predicted high
learning motivation in children and that the children’s learning motivation contributed to their level of phonological awareness.
Moreover, children’s learning motivation mediated the association between teacher stress and children’s phonological awareness.
The results emphasize the importance of teachers’ pedagogical well-being and classroom organizational quality for children’s
learning motivation. 相似文献

There continues to be a debate whether educators should use brain research to their advantage in the classroom. This debate
should not prevent educators from using their new found knowledge toward enhancing their students’ learning. By understanding
how the brain learns, educators are able to determine what developmental level the child is physically, mentally, socially,
and cognitively. The more knowledge an educator has and applies, the better the children will learn, and our future leaders
will be better educated. 相似文献

This paper distils 24 years of classroom research into promoting quality learning in science classrooms to develop an overall
framework for better understanding and describing both the learning and the teaching approaches that stimulate and support
it. For me, quality learning is characterised by adjectives such as informed, purposeful, reflective, intellectually active,
metacognitive and independent. Central to quality learning is the role of talk, and central to promoting talk which promotes
quality learning are certain teacher behaviours. I first focus on the ways that teachers behave in the classroom in order
to promote, react to and use student talk. These behaviours are summed up in a list of twelve principles for quality teaching.
Each of these principles requires, as well as appropriate teacher behaviours, the use of effective teaching procedures. I
then focus on four kinds of student talk that exemplify informed, purposeful, reflective and intellectually active thinking.
These variously involve students’ existing ideas and explanations; increasing student ownership of practical activities; constructive
challenges to the teacher (or text’s) idea, and lateral, reflective ‘thinking’ questions. 相似文献

Positive approaches to learning are considered essential for young children’s school readiness and early school success. Researchers
have reported that positive learning approaches, such as attentiveness and goal orientation, are associated with higher levels
of early school achievement in math and reading. The present study extends this research by examining children’s learning
approaches in the context of classroom activities from a range of curricular areas. Ninety-two children from pre-kindergarten
and kindergarten classrooms took part in the study. Four approaches to learning were rated during children’s participation
in seven classroom learning activities. Results showed that positive learning approaches were a significant contributor to
children’s performance, but they were not equally effective in all activities. The effectiveness of a learning approach depends,
in part, on the characteristics of the activity in which the child is engaged. We discuss the implications of these results
for understanding the study of learning approaches, and for classroom practices designed to promote their development. 相似文献

Computer-Mediated Intersensory Learning Model for Students with Learning Disabilities 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

This article proposes a computer-mediated intersensory learning model as an alternative to traditional instructional approaches
for students with learning disabilities (LDs) in the inclusive classroom. Predominant practices of classroom inclusion today
reflect the six principles of zero reject, nondiscriminatory evaluation, appropriate education, least restrictive environment,
procedural due process, and parental and student participation. These practices guide the amended Individuals with Disabilities
Education Act (IDEA) of 2004. For nearly 35 years the act has championed for the rights of children with disabilities. The
act mandates that students with LDs are educated in the general education classroom (Hock, Deshler, & Schumaker, 1999). 相似文献

Research in Mexican schools, drawing upon earlier research in the UK, has led to the development and use of a method for describing, comparing and evaluating the particular approaches and interactional strategies used by teachers and learners. Using this method, qualitative and quantitative comparisons are made to distinguish between teachers who use a conventional, formal, directive approach when teaching 5-year-old children mathematical skills (called the “Official” method) and those who use a more interactive, collaborative, supportive, “scaffolded” approach to teach similar classes of children (called the “High Scope” method). In an earlier study, we found more competent and independent problem-solving among High/Scope pupils than among their peers taught by the Official method. In the present study, discourse analysis and statistical analysis of the relative frequencies of types of teacher-pupil interaction in the classrooms of two “Official” teachers and two “High’ Scope” teachers are used to explain the improved problem-solving of the “High Scope” pupils. The findings support the view that by creating a more collaborative, scaffolded version of classroom education, teachers can more successfully enable children to develop their own problem-solving skills, learning strategies and curriculum-related understanding. The research also contributes to the development and implementation of methods for promoting a more effective style of teacher-learner interaction in the classroom. 相似文献

The global classroom is an emerging technology-based pedagogy used internationally by educational institutions. To evaluate a global classroom, we conducted a qualitative study using written reflections and semi-structured interviews of global classroom participants, based on two theoretical frameworks: Kearsley and Shneiderman’s engagement theory and Kolb’s experiential learning theory. We analyzed student reflections and transcribed interviews, using the software package, NVivo, with two objectives: (1) to evaluate if global classroom is engaging and experiential to students and (2) to elucidate how student engagement is fostered in the global classroom through experiential learning. Results illustrated a complex relationship between student engagement and experiential learning. During the experiential learning cycle, engagement theory (relate-create-donate) principles contributed to student engagement at varying levels and for different purposes. Based on the results of this study, we created a framework that demonstrates the interactivity of engagement theory and experiential learning theory to describe how student engagement featured in experiential learning during this global classroom, with strategies to maximize student engagement in experiential learning. 相似文献

Parent and student perceptions of classroom learning environment and its association with student outcomes 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:2
This research is distinctive in that parents’ perceptions were utilised in conjunction with students’ perceptions in investigating
science classroom learning environments among Grade 4 and 5 students in South Florida. The What Is Happening In this Class?
(WIHIC) questionnaire was modified for young students and their parents and administered to 520 students and 120 parents.
Data analyses supported the WIHIC’s factorial validity, internal consistency reliability and ability to differentiate between
the perceptions of students in different classrooms. Both students and parents preferred a more positive classroom environment
than the one perceived to be actually present, but effect sizes for actual-preferred differences were larger for parents than
for students. Associations were found between some learning environment dimensions (especially task orientation) and student
outcomes (especially attitudes). Qualitative methods suggested that students and parents were generally satisfied with the
classroom environment, but that students would prefer more investigation while parents would prefer more teacher support.
The study provides a pioneering look at how parents and students perceive the science learning environment and opens the way
for further learning environment studies involving both parents and students. 相似文献

This paper argues that student teachers’ developing pedagogical approaches achieve expression within the virtual classroom
in much the same way as they would in the ‘real’ classroom; that is to say through language as the primary tool of mediation.
Whilst the advent of new communications technologies affords new arenas in which learning can take place—Virtual Learning
Environments (VLEs), online communities, Managed Learning Environments—the importance of human agency and the significance
of language remains pivotal to the effective use of such technologies. As such it is argued that student teachers need opportunities
to engage in authentic online dialogue with children as they endeavour to find their online pedagogical voice. The key findings
emerge from a case study carried out with a group of Year 3 ICT specialists on an undergraduate initial teacher education
(ITE) degree course in the UK, leading to qualified teacher status (QTS) in the primary and lower secondary phases of education.
Funding from the University of Brighton, Community University Partnership Programme (CUPP), was used to design and resource
a module, which facilitated opportunities for student teachers to engage in online learning dialogues with children from a
local primary school, having initially met with the children face-to-face. Fourteen student teachers participated in the study.
Interviews were carried out and their online dialogues with the children were analysed to establish both the issues and potential
advantages of such a situated approach to learning about the educational use of new communications technologies with children. 相似文献

Collaborating closely with a tenth-grade science teacher, we designed a Web-Based Learning Environment (Web-LE) to improve
the students’ motivation to learn science. Factors believed to enhance intrinsic motivation (challenge, control, curiosity,
and fantasy) were integrated into the instructional design of the Web-based learning tool. The Web-LE was implemented in the
teacher’s tenth-grade classroom as a three-day student-centered learning activity. Data collection methods included individual
student interviews, teacher interviews, motivation questionnaires, and observations. This study revealed multiple forms of
evidence that the Web-LE and the associated learning activity improved students’ motivation. This study illustrates the benefits
of educational researchers working closely with teachers using design-based research methods to successfully solve instructional
problems and identify reusable design principles. Design principles for the integration of intrinsic motivation factors into
the development of similar Web-LEs are presented as well as directions for future research. 相似文献

This study investigated parent-reported receptivity towards the classroom environment and classroom outcomes. Classroom environment
was based on a five-aspect model: (1) provision of information from the child; (2) beliefs about the school; (3) provision
of information from teachers; (4) teachers' commitment to working with parents; and (5) confidence in communicating with teachers.
Classroom outcomes were based on two aspects: (1) educational values (importance of schooling, involved with learning; seeing
a future through learning, desire to learn, and importance of learning); and (2) learning outcomes (achieving, and views of
child's engagement in school work). For each aspect, items were written in an ordered-by-difficulty pattern so that, for example,
Item 2 involved Item 1 and ‘more’, making it conceptually ‘harder’ to agree with Item 2 than with Item 1. There were four
Likert response categories (SDA, DA, A, and SA). Using the extended logistic model of Rasch, an interval-level, unidimensional
scale was created with item difficulties for classroom environment aspects and classroom outcomes calibrated on the same scale
as the receptivity measures. The sample consisted of 518 parents of students from three secondary schools in Western Australia.
The item sample was 30. The proportion of observed variance considered true was 0.94. The items for each aspect were found
to be ordered from ‘easy’ to ‘hard’ in line with the hypothesised model of receptivity and the data fitted the measurement
model well.
