Explaining the substantial inter-domain and over-time correlations in student achievement: the importance of stable student attributes     

Gary N. Marks 《Educational Research and Evaluation》2016,22(1-2):45-64

Multi-domain and longitudinal studies of student achievement routinely find moderate to strong correlations across achievement domains and even stronger within-domain correlations over time. The purpose of this study is to examine the sources of these patterns analysing student achievement in 5 domains across Years 3, 5 and 7. The analysis is of longitudinal population data of over 22,000 students and utilizes fixed-effects models to incorporate stable general and domain-specific latent factors. These latent factors correspond to a general cognitive-ability-like factor and specific aptitudes in particular, or types of, subject areas. The preferred model incorporates both general and domain-specific latent factors with stronger effects for the general factor, although the domain-specific factors are particularly strong for spelling and numeracy. When taking into account general and domain-specific latent factors, the effects of student’s socioeconomic status (SES) and school SES are trivial.  相似文献   

Multimedia and Online Video Case Studies for Preservice Teacher Preparation   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

Terence R. Cannings  Sue Talley 《Education and Information Technologies》2002,7(4):359-367

Case studies have been used successfully as a part of teacher education. There are many possibilities in extending the impact of case studies through the use of technology. Video and the Internet could enable demonstration of more examples, dissemination beyond the walls of the classroom, and discussion between geographically dispersed preservice teachers. Several projects are now investigating the possible ways that technology might enhance or extend text case studies. After exploring four existing products, four essential elements for video case studies are proposed. As video case studies move to the Internet, additional issues arise and these are also explored.  相似文献   

With the eyes of others: an ethnography of an academic office     

Damian Ruth 《Ethnography and Education》2016,11(3):359-370

The author raises questions about ethnographic methodology through exploring the implications of using observations produced by his colleagues about his office as data for his research. This process blurred the boundaries between researcher, method and the object and subject of research. It meets some criteria for ethnography and not others, and does not evidence clear definitional boundaries for any sub-genre such as autoethnography or collaborative authoethnography. Besides raising definitional challenges and the blurring of roles in research, the study also illustrates how the methodology revealed tensions over collegial trust, boundaries and privacy. The author's colleagues exposed aspects of the author's identity that were opaque and even invisible to the author. The author accordingly raises questions about the locus of ethical concern. Thus, issues of roles, definition, trust, boundaries, privacy and method were entwined.  相似文献   

试论儒学的人文精神及其"异化"     

游进 《鄂州大学学报》2002,9(3):36-39

孔孟儒学产生于春秋战国时期资本主义因素有很大发展的历史背景下,而且反映了资本主义因素发展的进步要求,正如西欧封建社会的文艺人,启蒙运动等思潮反映了资本主义萌芽发展的时代要求一样,然而,秦汉以后的儒学出现了“异化”的趋势,这种“异化”的儒学完全背叛了孔孟儒学的民主精神。  相似文献   

Differential recognition of children's cultural practices in middle primary literacy classrooms     

Helen Nixon  Barbara Comber 《Literacy》2006,40(3):127-136

This paper argues that teachers' recognition of children's cultural practices is an important positive step in helping socio‐economically disadvantaged children engage with school literacies. Based on 21 longitudinal case studies of children's literacy development over a 3‐year period, the authors demonstrate that when children's knowledges and practices assembled in home and community spheres are treated as valuable material for school learning, children are more likely to invest in the work of acquiring school literacies. However, they also show that while some children benefit greatly from being allowed to draw on their knowledge of popular culture, sports and the outdoors, other children's interests may be ignored or excluded. Some differences in teachers' valuing of home and community cultures appeared to relate to gender dimensions.  相似文献

Optimal Design for Two-Level Random Assignment and Regression Discontinuity Studies     

Christopher H. Rhoads  Charles Dye 《Journal of Experimental Education》2016,84(3):421-448

An important concern when planning research studies is to obtain maximum precision of an estimate of a treatment effect given a budget constraint. When research designs have a multilevel or hierarchical structure changes in sample size at different levels of the design will impact precision differently. Furthermore, there will typically be differential costs of enrolling additional units at different levels of the hierarchy. The optimal design problem in multilevel research studies involves determining the optimal sample size at each level of the design given specified design parameters and a specified marginal cost of recruitment at each level. The current work extends existing results by considering optimal design for (a) unbalanced random assignment designs and (b) regression discontinuity designs.  相似文献
