The ethics of academic collection development in a politically contentious era     

Wendy Highby   《Library Collections, Acquisitions, and Technical Services》2005,28(4):465-472

The ethics of academic library collection development are discussed within the context of the polarized political climate of the United States. The ethics are examined in regard to collection development and the exercise of professional judgment. Legislation introduced in the State of Colorado is used as an example of a manifestation of the political polarization. The legislation's possible effects upon the academic freedom of librarians are examined. The limitations of the ethical principle of neutrality and rationale for engaging in advocacy are explored. An expansion of the teaching role of academic technical services librarians is recommended.  相似文献   

Differential effects of norm-referenced and self-referenced feedback on performance expectancies,attributions, and motivation     

Wendy McColskey  Mark R. Leary 《Contemporary educational psychology》1985,10(3):275-284

When feedback is provided to students in a norm-referenced manner that compares the individual's performance to that of others, people who perform poorly tend to attribute their failures to lack of ability, expect to perform poorly in the future, and demonstrate decreased motivation on subsequent tasks. The present study examined the hypothesis that the deleterious effects of failure might be attenuated when failure is expressed in self-referenced terms—relative to the individual's known level of ability as assessed by other measures. In this study, subjects received feedback indicating that they did well or poorly on an anagram test, and this feedback was described as either norm-referenced (comparing the individual's performance to that of others) or as self-referenced (comparing performance to other measures of the individual's ability). As predicted, compared to norm-referenced failure, self referenced feedback resulted in higher expectancies regarding future performance and increased attributions to effort. Contrary to expectations, attributions to ability were not affected. The implications of the results for the structure of academic feedback are discussed.  相似文献

Block Talk: Spatial Language During Block Play     

Katrina Ferrara  Kathy Hirsh‐Pasek  Nora S. Newcombe  Roberta Michnick Golinkoff  Wendy Shallcross Lam 《Mind, Brain, and Education》2011,5(3):143-151

Spatial skills are a central component of intellect and show marked individual differences. There is evidence that variations in the spatial language young children hear, which directs their attention to important aspects of the spatial environment, may be one of the mechanisms that contributes to these differences. To investigate how play affects variations in language, parents and children were assigned to 1 of 3 conditions: free play with blocks, guided play, or play with preassembled structures (Study 1). Parents in the guided play condition produced significantly higher proportions of spatial talk than parents in the other two conditions, and children in the guided play condition produced significantly more spatial talk than those in the free play condition. Study 2 established baselines of spatial language during activities not involving spatial materials. Proportions of spatial words were lower than those in any of the conditions of Experiment 1. In sum, interaction with blocks naturally elicits elevated levels of spatial language, especially in the context of guided play, suggesting simple‐to‐execute educational interventions.  相似文献

小学语文教科书中的爱国主义语篇的概念意义构建研究     

夏锦萍  Wendy L.BOWCHER 《江西师范大学学报(哲学社会科学版)》2015,(2):121-124

人教版语文第一册中有四篇课文是以传递爱国主义价值观为宗旨的。选取其中《我多想去看看》作为研究对象,运用符际互补理论框架,研究如何通过文字和图像符号系统的相互作用和相互配合,形成连贯的语篇,分析结果表明,文字图像之间的符际关系着重在"国旗"、"地点"、"升旗仪式"以及"观礼"等方面;在小学语文教材中可以通过文字和图像符号系统的互补形成连贯的多模态语篇并传导主流价值观。  相似文献

Factors impacting the rapid transition of anatomy curricula to an online environment in response to Covid-19     

Laura D. Bauler  Kate M. Lesciotto  Wendy Lackey-Cornelison 《Anatomical sciences education》2022,15(2):221-232

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, many academic institutions had to rapidly transition education to a remote online environment. While a hurdle for most educators, this transition posed an even greater challenge for anatomy educators, many of whom were forced to depart from the traditional cadaver-based laboratory to a virtual format. Recent publications have discussed the rapid transition to online formats necessitated by Covid-19 and the accompanying difficulties, but none have identified specific factors that influenced the difficulty of this transition. Anatomy educators were surveyed to examine how this transition was accomplished and perceived. Of the 165 educators who responded, the majority utilized cadaver-based laboratory instruction. Educators felt that transitioning the laboratory portion of their courses was significantly more difficult and required more time than converting lecture materials. Factors that impacted the difficulty of the transition included a number of pedagogical aspects of the pre-Covid-19 curricula, including the delivery format of prior content, availability of pre-existing electronic materials, and the laboratory technique previously used. Additionally, the length of time an educator had been teaching prior to Covid-19 impacted their perception of difficulty, with newer and more senior educators finding this much more challenging than mid-tenure educators. Ease of transition may be related to previous exposure to curricular reform, experience with multiple anatomy pedagogies, and educator adaptability. While not surprising that converting a cadaver-based laboratory to an online format was challenging, knowledge of the alignment of this difficulty with prior educator pedagogy can help guide future innovations to anatomy education.  相似文献
