Introducing the empty number line     

Rod Bramald 《Education 3-13》2013,41(3):5-12

The empty number line (ENL) is an essential element of Dutch mathematics education, already internationally acknowledged as a successful model for developing mental strategies. The concept is a deceptively simple one but is based upon a complex structure of previous research findings. Several recent and influential UK publications have already misused the concept. This article is based upon the original work of Beishuisen from Leiden University and sets out a very simplified version of how the ENL is derived and built up for use in mental mathematics.  相似文献

Input-Based Approaches to Teaching Grammar： A Review of Classroom-oriented Research

2．Input-processing studies The input-processing studies examined here involve experimental comparisons of input-based and production- based instruction．Whereas traditional grammar teaching attempts to manipulate learner production,‘processing instruction’emplys‘interpretation tasks’(Ellis 1995)that invite learners to engage in intentional learning by consciously noticing how a target grammatical feature is used in input specially contrived to contain numerous exemplars of the structure.  相似文献   

Young children at risk of literacy difficulties: factors predicting recovery from risk following phonologically based intervention     

Helen E. Whiteley  Chris D. Smith  Liz Connors 《Journal of Research in Reading》2007,30(3):249-269

This longitudinal project identified young children at risk of literacy difficulties and asked why some of these children fail to benefit from phonologically based intervention. Reception class children were screened to identify a group at risk of literacy difficulties and a matched group of children not at risk. Profiles were compiled for each child including measures of reading, spelling, memory, rapid naming, vocabulary and phonological awareness. A daily, 15‐week, small group intervention was implemented with 67 at‐risk children. Those who had not made progress in their literacy following this intervention participated in a second, individually administered intervention. The results indicate that letter knowledge and expressive vocabulary are key factors mediating a child's ability to benefit from a phonologically based intervention. Findings are discussed in the context of a lexical restructuring account of the development of spoken word recognition.  相似文献

Self-monitoring and knowledge-building in learning by teaching     

Rod D. Roscoe 《Instructional Science》2014,42(3):327-351

Prior research has established that learning by teaching depends upon peer tutors’ engagement in knowledge-building, in which tutors integrate their knowledge and generate new knowledge through reasoning. However, many tutors adopt a knowledge-telling bias defined by shallow summarizing of source materials and didactic lectures. Knowledge-telling contributes little to learning with deeper understanding. In this paper, we consider the self-monitoring hypothesis, which states that the knowledge-telling bias may arise due to tutors’ limited or inadequate evaluation of their own knowledge and understanding of the material. Tutors who fail to self-monitor may remain unaware of knowledge gaps or other confusions that could be repaired via knowledge-building. To test this hypothesis, sixty undergraduates were recruited to study and then teach a peer about a scientific topic. Data included tests of recall and comprehension, as well as extensive analyses of the explanations, questions, and self-monitoring that occurred during tutoring. Results show that tutors’ comprehension-monitoring and domain knowledge, along with pupils’ questions, were significant predictors of knowledge-building, which was in turn predictive of deeper understanding of the material. Moreover, tutorial interactions and questions appeared to naturally promote tutors’ self-monitoring. However, despite frequent comprehension-monitoring, many tutors still displayed a strong knowledge-telling bias. Thus, peer tutors appeared to experience more difficulty with self-regulatory aspects of knowledge-building (i.e., responding appropriately to perceived knowledge gaps and confusions) than with self-monitoring. Implications and alternative hypotheses for future research are discussed.  相似文献   

Filling in the gaps: European governance,the open method of coordination and the European Commission     

Manuel Souto‐Otero  Timo Fleckenstein  Rod Dacombe 《教育政策杂志》2013,28(3):231-249

The article addresses the way in which EU policy‐making operates, explains the relevance of ‘lifelong learning’ for the European Commission and analyses the mechanisms by which the Commission has advanced policy‐making in education and training since the Lisbon Summit. The article reviews in particular the alleged lack of effectiveness of the Open Method of Coordination in education and, second, the notion that the EU advances ‘slowly and persistently’ in its acquisition of competences in this area.  相似文献
