Teaching technological applications in the physics classroom     

A. T. Jones  C. M. Kirk 《Research in Science Education》1989,19(1):164-173

Conclusions A teaching unit, designed to improve links between physics concepts and students' existing know ledge, has been developed and evaluated. Based on key propositions of the generative learning model, attention gaining activities were introduced to facilitate new ideas being linked to relevant frameworks already held by the learner. Evaluation suggests that introducing an appropriate technological focus, combining activities and using a suitable teaching sequence generally enhance the learning of senior secondary school physics. Student perceptions of the teaching unit were probably enhanced in part because the approach used was new and different. However, when a second teaching unit, based on the Doppler effect, was introduced to the class about four weeks later, very similar results were obtained with the same classes and other classes. The capacitance unit was also used in other schools with similar positive results from both teachers and students.  相似文献   

Video Production Technology in Australian Higher Education     

T. R. Haynes 《Learning, Media and Technology》1982,8(2):119-126

The paper describes the present state of the art of video programme production in Australian tertiary education, discusses the identity of the decision‐makers in the production sequence, and assesses the importance of video aesthetics. Against the background of some Australian media departments' production and hardware philosophy, the author describes four series of programmes produced at the ACUE.  相似文献

A five-dimensional framework for authentic assessment   总被引：1，自引：2，他引：1  

Judith T. M. Gulikers  Theo J. Bastiaens  Paul A. Kirschner 《Educational technology research and development : ETR & D》2004,52(3):67-86

Authenticity is an important element of new modes of assessment. The problem is that what authentic assessment really is, is unspecified. In this article, we first review the literature on authenticity of assessments, along with a five-dimensional framework for designing authentic assessments with professional practice as the starting point. Then, we present the results of a qualitative study to determine if the framework is complete, and what the relative importance of the five dimensions is in the perceptions of students and teachers of a vocational college for nursing. We discuss implications for the framework, along with important issues that need to be considered when designing authentic assessments.  相似文献   

Prenatal screening for risk of major parenting problems: further results from the Queen Mary Maternity Hospital Child Care Unit     

S M Monaghan  R J Gilmore  R C Muir  J E Clarkson  T J Crooks  T G Egan 《Child abuse & neglect》1986,10(3):369-375

This research revealed in Stage I the ability to identify during the prenatal period women at risk for possible child abuse and in Stage II an intervention program which when introduced resulted in fewer high-risk mothers relinquishing the care of their infants. The research had two main aims: to use the data from Stages I and II to reassess the criteria for identifying "at risk" mothers, and to develop a brief, easily administered screening questionnaire which could be standardized for widespread prenatal use; and to collect data on a random sample of prenatal patients, to use these data for confirming the validity and stability of the screening procedures, and to estimate the incidence of potentially high-risk mothers in an urban population.  相似文献   

Secular youth and religious practice: candle lighting in Norwegian folk high schools     

Johan Lövgren 《British Journal of Religious Education》2018,40(2):124-135

Although large international studies have defined Norway as one of the most secular countries in the world, Christian folk high schools in Norway have experienced record high attendance. This paper presents case studies of the religious education (RE) and practices of two Christian folk high schools in Norway. A survey shows that students at these schools can be considered representative of the confessional backgrounds and stated values of their cohort of Norwegian youth. The studied institutions have the declared goal of offering RE, of which an on-campus worship service is a central element. A large portion of the student body attends these services. Using a reconstruction of Etienne Wenger’s theory of communities of practice, the author analyses student participation in the school worship service, specifically in the act of candle lighting. Observations and student interviews indicate that the service can be described as a reflective practice representing a dialogic form of religion. This article contributes an analysis of the distinctive form of RE offered by Christian folk high schools in Norway. In a broader sense, it contributes to the understanding of secular youth and their relation to religious practice.  相似文献

Influence Processes in Supervision     

CHARLES D. CLAIBORN  BRUCE D. ETRINGER  ERIC T. HILLERBRAND 《Counselor Education & Supervision》1995,35(1):43-53

Supervision is conceptualized in terms of social influence processes that result in attitude and behavior change in the trainee. This article emphasizes attitude change, which both accompanies and mediates behavior change. The implications of the social influence perspective for understanding supervision and for conducting research on supervision are explored.  相似文献

Differential costs of curricula in Illinois public junior colleges: Some implications for the future     

John T. Warren  Ernest F. Anderson  Thomas L. Hardin 《Research in higher education》1976,4(1):59-67

The purpose of this study was to determine and analyze the annual cost of operation including depreciation of movable capital equipment for educating one student in each curriculum of selected community colleges and to show the relationship of costs of vocational-technical curricula to the cost for common baccalaureate oriented curricula.A stratified sample of eight community colleges was drawn from those that had been in operation for at least five years.These data indicate that a majority of the courses offered in highly specialized curricula in both the occupational and baccalaureate categories were more expansive than those courses that were common to a wide variety of curricula.This study supports differential program funding to assure continued development of high quality vocational-technical programs in community colleges.  相似文献
