Closing the Gap: Fostering Successful Research‐Practice Partnerships in Counselor Education     

Danica G. Hays  Todd Bolin  Ching‐Chen Chen 《Counselor Education & Supervision》2019,58(4):278-292

Research‐practice partnerships offer counselor educators an opportunity to generate scholarship that can promote client welfare and create systemic change in practice and policy. The purpose of this article is to articulate strategies for building and sustaining research‐practice partnerships, as well as suggest methods for evaluating these partnerships.  相似文献   

Consistently inconsistent: An examination of the variability in the identification of emotional disturbance     

Kristin Scardamalia  Keisha L. Bentley‐Edwards  Kairys Grasty 《Psychology in the schools》2019,56(4):569-581

The federal definition of emotional disturbance (ED) has been heavily criticized as vaguely defined and poorly operationalized yet there has not been a formal analysis of the reliability of the ED criteria. This study examined the reliability of the federal criteria for a special education designation of ED. A total of 179 school psychologists reviewed a mock special education report, made an eligibility determination, and provided information about their eligibility decision. In all, 56 participants found the student met ED eligibility criteria using 16 different combinations of the five criteria. Krippendorff’s α, a statistic preferred for content analysis, was calculated as a measure of criterion reliability. Results indicated extremely poor reliability (α = 0.2011). These findings demonstrate the importance of redefining the existing criteria.  相似文献

Quantifying Qualitative Scholarship: A Fool’s Errand or a Methodological Necessity?     

Amy M. Magnus  Jenny S. West  Daniel W. Scott  Cheryl Maxson  Jody Miller 《Journal of Criminal Justice Education》2019,30(2):223-249

This paper describes our efforts to systematically generate knowledge from ethnographic and other qualitative scholarship as a way of bridging intellectual gaps found in quantitative research. We ground this scholarly endeavor in the study of gangs, which has a lengthy history in the field of criminology, yet lacks a coherent, coordinated, and comparative understanding of gang dynamics, behavior, and impacts. We discuss the importance of acknowledging the multiple and mixed methodologies used in gang scholarship and detail the inductive, deductive, and iterative process that helped us (1) develop a comprehensive coding instrument for coding a range of qualitative works, (2) establish the instrument’s inter-rater reliability, and (3) remain cognizant and reflexive about the strengths of both quantitative and qualitative research. Finally, we share the critical yet informative challenges we faced throughout the project and conclude with reflections on why the project was unsuccessful in the way we originally envisioned.  相似文献   

Activity of Prefrontal Cortex in Teachers and Students during Teaching of an Insight Problem     

Naoyuki Takeuchi  Takayuki Mori  Yoshimi Suzukamo  Shin‐Ichi Izumi 《Mind, Brain, and Education》2019,13(3):167-175

Metacognitive functions are important for both teachers and students to facilitate teaching and learning. The prefrontal cortex (PFC) plays a proven role in metacognition. As a pilot study, we evaluated the PFC activity of teachers and students using near‐infrared spectroscopy devices to explore the neural mechanism of PFC underlying metacognitive function during teaching and problem‐solving processes. In 14 student‐teacher pairs, participants in the teacher role gave hints via a tablet screen to facilitate solving of a tangram puzzle task by participants in the student role. The PFC activity of teachers increased after giving hints but not while planning hints. The PFC activity of students increased upon task solving after receiving hints. The PFC of teachers might play a metacognitive role in monitoring their own teaching results. The PFC activity of students might be related to the creativity process after gaining insights, as well as metacognitive process for monitoring their own behavior.  相似文献   

Next Steps for Mind,Brain, and Education: Strengthening Early‐Career Development     

Rebecca J. M. Gotlieb  Courtney Pollack  Jessica W. Younger  Elizabeth Y. Toomarian  Genevive Allaire‐Duquette  Nadja M. Mariager 《Mind, Brain, and Education》2019,13(3):120-132

An increasing number of scholars are being trained in the field of mind, brain, and education (MBE), yet discussions of trainees' needs and how to meet them are rare. We, the inaugural International Mind, Brain, and Education Society (IMBES) Trainee Board, identify three broad needs of MBE trainees: guidance and support, greater access to and connections among the MBE community, and professional development. We report a first step to address these needs: a daylong trainee conference, which included sessions to foster connections among trainees, provide mentorship from MBE leaders, and provide knowledge and skill building for careers. Attendees' survey results suggest the conference successfully supported trainees' development. As substantial trainee needs remain, we offer specific ways that principal investigators, institutions, funding agencies, future IMBES trainee boards, and the MBE community can further address trainees' needs to support early‐career development and strengthen the MBE field generally.  相似文献

If we build it,will they come? The effect of new athletic facilities on recruiting rankings for power five football and men's basketball programs     

Matt Ryan Huml  N David Pifer  Caitlin Towle  Cheryl R Rode 《Journal of Marketing for HIGHER EDUCATION》2019,29(1):1-18

College athletics is currently in the midst of a building boom in which universities are competing with each other to reach an always-increasing standard of lavish athletic facilities. While these facilities are costing in the tens or hundreds of millions of dollars, little research is examining the return on investment for athletic programs. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of new athletic facilities on recruiting rankings for Power Five football and men's basketball programs. Data was collected on athletic facilities newly constructed or renovated from 2005 through 2015 at Power Five NCAA Division I programs. Using LSDV fixed effects regression models, results found a lack of significant improvement within football and basketball recruiting rankings following the completion of new athletic facilities, but some significance in the two years before the project was completed. Significant control variables also highlighted the effects that coaching changes can have on recruiting.  相似文献   

Success in Consulting     

Kathryn Sulloway Adams  Andrea Moore  Mary Rita Roux‐Zink  L. Michael Wykes  Lynn Kearny 《Performance Improvement》2015,54(9):12-18

Do you regularly reflect on the value you bring to your client? The act of reflection is something experienced consultants, both internal and external, consistently do in their practice. This article examines the ways in which Certified Performance Technologists (CPTs) define and recognize the success of their efforts, but most importantly, how they learn from engagements that do not always end with the desired outcome. You will hear from CPTs across several industries in their own words about what strategies they have employed to continue to improve their skill sets.  相似文献
