Managing the relationship with outside suppliers     

Sandra K. Paul 《Publishing Research Quarterly》1999,15(3):63-68

Production and manufacturing departments have overseen an extraordinary development in the technologies used to put books together. Until recently they have had little information technology (IT) support in their day-to-day functions. Increasing use of technology, particularly in communication with suppliers, will be essential in the future management of these key external relationships. Address for correspondence  相似文献

Research Findings from the Tennessee Value-Added Assessment System (TVAAS) Database: Implications for Educational Evaluation and Research   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

William L. Sanders  Sandra P. Horn 《Journal of Personnel Evaluation in Education》1998,12(3):247-256

The Tennessee Value-Added Assessment System determines the effectiveness of school systems, schools, and teachers based on student academic growth over time. An integral part of TVAAS is a massive, longitudinally merged database linking students and student outcomes to the schools and systems in which they are enrolled and to the teachers to whom they are assigned as they transition from grade to grade. Research conducted utilizing data from the TVAAS database has shown that race, socioeconomic level, class size, and classroom heterogeneity are poor predictors of student academic growth. Rather, the effectiveness of the teacher is the major determinant of student academic progress. Teacher effects on student achievement have been found to be both additive and cumulative with little evidence that subsequent effective teachers can offset the effects of ineffective ones. For these reasons, a component linking teacher effectiveness to student outcomes is a necessary part of any effective educational evaluation system.  相似文献   

The incidence and utility of the ACID,ACIDS, and SCAD profiles in a referred population     

Sandra B. Ward  Thomas J. Ward  Clifford V. Hatt  Debra L. Young  Nancy R. Mollner 《Psychology in the schools》1995,32(4):267-276

THE ACID, ACIDS, and SCAD profiles are examples of subtest patterns from the WISC-III that have been proposed as potentially helpful in differential diagnosis of exceptionalities. This study investigated the prevalence and utility of these profiles in a large referred population. Although the incidence rates of the ACID and ACIDS profiles in some groups were greater than rates reported for the standardization sample, incidence levels were found to be low in all clinical groups studied. The SCAD profile evidenced generally higher incidence rates but none greater than the rates reported for the standardization sample. The findings support the use of conditional probabilities and incremental gains based on the actual incidence from a referred population to assist in differential diagnosis; however, none of the profiles are recommended as a criterion for determining exceptionality.  相似文献   

Cardiovascular Regulation after Stroke: Evidence of Impairment,Trainability, and Implications for Rehabilitation     

Sandra Billinger 《Cardiopulmonary Physical Therapy Journal》2010,21(1):22-24

Purpose: To discuss the role of the vascular system and regulation of blood flow delivery in individuals with chronic stroke. This paper will discuss mechanisms of blood flow, vascular remodeling in chronic stroke, exercise as an intervention to improve blood flow delivery, and the role of physical therapy practice in promoting exercise. Key Points: Evidence suggests that people with chronic stroke may experience reduced blood flow and decreased arterial diameter in the hemiparetic limb. These arterial changes may influence exercise performance and functional ambulation. However, exercise training can be an effective intervention for improving blood flow delivery in the hemiparetic limb. Statement of Recommendations: Physical therapists working with people post-stroke should routinely prescribe aerobic exercise training within the plan of care during stroke rehabilitation. This may minimize declines in the cardiorespiratory and vascular systems and provide greater functional capacity to perform functional activities during and after discharge from physical therapy services.Key Words: blood flow, stroke, cardiovascular, exercise  相似文献   

Object Properties and Object Kind: Twenty-One-Month-Old Infants' Extension of Novel Adjectives   总被引：2，自引：1，他引：1  

Sandra R. Waxman  Dana B. Markow 《Child development》1998,69(5):1313-1329

Three experiments examined the conditions under which infants acquiring English succeed in mapping novel adjectives, applied ostensively to individual objects, to other objects with the same property (color or texture). Twenty-one-month-old infants were introduced to a target (e.g., a yellow object) and asked to choose between (1) a matching test object (e.g., a different yellow object) and (2) a contrasting test object (e.g., a green object). Infants hearing the target labeled with novel adjectives were more likely than those hearing no novel words to choose the matching test object. Infants also revealed an emerging distinction between novel adjectives and nouns. Finally, infants' expectation regarding the extension of adjectives appears to unfold within the support of a familiar basic-level category. Infants extended novel adjectives to the matching test object when all objects were all drawn from the same basic level category; they failed to do so when the objects were drawn from different basic level categories.  相似文献

A critical point in investigative work: Defining variables     

Sandra Duggan  Philip Johnson  Richard Gott 《科学教学研究杂志》1996,33(5):461-474

This article reports research concerning the definition of variables by pupils aged 12 to 14 during investigative work. The findings suggest that an increase in the complexity of an investigation lowers the ability to identify relevant variables as pupils start to lose track of the whole task. Substantive concepts intrude most obviously on the ability to define the appropriate dependent variable and to control variables. Pupils appear to have difficulty in realizing the advantages of defining the independent variable as continuous for the investigation as a whole. Possible explanations are considered and some practical ways of addressing this point of difficulty are put forward. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.  相似文献   

The Impact of Studying Abroad on Male Preservice Teachers: A Phenomenological Investigation     

Julie M. McGaha  Sandra M. Linder 《Multicultural Perspectives》2013,15(3):163-168

In this article, the authors describe changes in preservice teachers’ perceptions of and attitudes regarding diversity following a semester-long study abroad experience. Phenomenological methods were used to analyze data collected from five male preservice teachers during a study abroad to Brussels, Belgium in the Fall of 2010. Changes in participants’ definition and attitudes regarding diversity and resulting implications for practice were evident.  相似文献
