A case study of lifelong learning in Japan: objectives,curriculum, accountability and visibility     

Anthony Rausch 《International Journal of Lifelong Education》2013,32(5):518-532

Various conceptualizations of lifelong learning have been developed and various practices of lifelong learning have been identified. This paper introduces several recent conceptualizations of lifelong learning before considering the case for Japan, both in general and through examination of the state of lifelong learning in a rural prefecture and a case study of one lifelong learning programme in a rural city. While the case for the prefecture as a whole mirrors the literature on lifelong learning in Japan, the case study presents four specific characteristics that may direct future development of lifelong learning programmes as well as research: a clearly stated societal objective, a knowledge and skills curriculum, participant accountability, and social visibility and presence.  相似文献

Defending the logic of significance testing: a response to Gorard     

Dave Neale 《牛津教育评论》2013,39(3):334-345

Recently, Stephen Gorard has outlined strong objections to the use of significance testing in social research. He has argued, first, that as the samples used in social research are almost always non-random it is not possible to use inferential statistical techniques and, second, that even if a truly random sample were achieved, the logic behind the calculation and interpretation of p-values is fundamentally flawed. Arguments against Gorard's position have focused almost exclusively on the first point (the non-random nature of samples) despite the fact that it is the second point which is the more important: if the logic of significance testing is indeed flawed, then whether non-random samples are a problem or not becomes irrelevant. This article aims to show that the logic of significance testing is not flawed in the ways which Gorard claims because: 1) samples do contain real information about the population from which they are derived; and 2) under certain assumptions the p-value can reflect—or at least be a reasonable proxy for—the probability of the null hypothesis being true given the data.  相似文献   

The Language of Coping: Understanding Filipino Geriatric Patients' Hemodialysis Lived Experiences     

Allan B. de Guzman  Mark Anthony S. Chy  April Faye P. Concepcion  Alvin John C. Conferido  Kristine I. Coretico 《Educational gerontology》2013,39(9):769-783

The majority of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are undergoing maintenance hemodialyisis. Hemodialysis is a process of removing metabolic waste, other poisons, and excess fluids from the blood and replacing essential blood constituents through a dialysis machine. With hemodialysis causing stress not only to physical status but also to psychological functioning and well-being, the individual will have to strive to cope with it. Coping involves cognitive and/or behavioral efforts exerted by the individual to be able to master, reduce, or tolerate the demands of a situation. Different coping strategies are being utilized by individuals such as thinking positively, having a positive outlook, and positively comparing self to others in similar situations. These techniques are what is referred to as optimistic coping. The study aims to capture the essences or languages of coping according to a select group of Filipino elderly patients with lived hemodialysis experiences. A total of 13 respondents, selected through purposive sampling, were provided with a two-part questionnaire. The first part is the robotfoto, which provides the cartographic sketch of the subjects. The second part is the semistructured interview, with an aide memoir. This is intended to surface the subjects' lived experience relative to hemodialysis experience coping mechanisms and the meaning of coping to them. Data gathered were transcribed and analyzed via cool and warm analyses. A repertory grid was constructed where significant statements were categorized and thematised revealing the languages of coping according to elderly patients with lived hemodialysis experience. Through interviews, the study yielded three themes that reveal the language of coping for Filipino geriatric patients undergoing hemodialyis. These themes consist of (a) coping as scaffolding: or the power to hold on, (b) coping as sailing: or the power to let go, and (c) coping as sanguinity: or the power to see the difference. Coping was defined as an ability (will power, acceptance, positive thinking) that people possess to keep up with certain stressful events, thereby making life more tolerable.  相似文献
