Motivation and transfer in professional training: A meta-analysis of the moderating effects of knowledge type, instruction, and assessment conditions     

Andreas Gegenfurtner 《Educational Research Review》2011,6(3):153-168

This meta-analysis (148 studies, k = 197, N = 31,718) examined the relationship between motivation and transfer in professional training. For this purpose, motivation was conceptualized in the following nine dimensions: motivation to learn, motivation to transfer, pre- and post-training self-efficacy, mastery orientation, performance orientation, avoidance orientation, expectancy, and instrumentality. Population correlation estimates ranged between −0.11 and 0.52. Three moderator effects were estimated. First, correlations were higher when the training focused on declarative and self-regulatory, rather than on procedural, knowledge. Second, learner-centered environments tended to show greater numbers of positive correlations than did knowledge-centered environments. Third, when compared with external, supervisory, or peer assessment, self-assessment of transfer produced upwardly biased population estimates irrespective of the transfer criterion. These findings are discussed in terms of their implications for theories of training effectiveness and their significance for the practice of training evaluation.  相似文献   

Higher education teachers’ professional learning: Process and outcome     

《Studies in Educational Evaluation》2015

In this paper, we first offer an analytic perspective on the papers in this volume, framing our discussion within the context of academic development as a discipline and highlighting common lines that cut across the nine contributions. We then offer insights about the current state of research on the evaluation of academic development and suggest directions that are likely to advance our theoretical and empirical knowledge in this area and anchor us firmly in evidence-based practice. We suggest that clarifying the mechanisms of change when professional learning occurs and measuring the changes in student learning outcomes that are associated with professional learning are important avenues for future research.  相似文献   

Teacher coaching in Kenya: Examining instructional support in public and nonformal schools     

《Teaching and Teacher Education》2015

Instructional coaching has improved student outcomes in the United States, and may help to solve Kenya's literacy problems. Coaching is costly, however, and evidence is lacking regarding the most cost-efficient teacher-to-coach ratio. We used student literacy outcome data from more than 8000 students participating in the Kenya Primary Math and Reading Initiative—a randomized controlled trial of instructional interventions in public and nonformal schools—to fill this gap. Coaches in larger public zones made fewer visits per teacher, and teacher-coach ratio and student performance were negatively associated. Using causal methods, we concluded that lower ratios might improve nonformal school outcomes.  相似文献   

基于社会认同的旅游体验研究     

李进军  许霞 《乐山师范学院学报》2015,(4)

随着中国经济的快速发展,旅游已经成为人们生活的一个重要组成部分,传统的单一观光型旅游已经不能适合人们日益增加的旅游需求。因此研究消费者进行旅游的深层次原因,特别是消费者在旅游时所体现出的社会层面的需求显得非常重要。对其进行研究可以在开发新的旅游产品和服务时更多的加入社会层面的体验,将使消费者在旅游中获得更大程度的满足。本研究通过将社会认同理论引入消费者的旅游活动中,探索消费者的认同感是否会影响其对旅游产品的选择与消费。本研究最后进行了社会认同理论在旅游体验中的发展趋势及策略研究。  相似文献   

Professional development for evidence-based SRSD writing instruction: Elevating fourth grade outcomes     

《Contemporary educational psychology》2023

Writing is a critical skill for success in all areas of life, but it is one of the least taught skills in school. Teachers consistently report being unprepared to teach writing. In this study, set in a Southern U.S. boomtown, teachers received two days of practice-based professional development for a ten-week implementation of self-regulated strategy development (SRSD), an evidence-based writing intervention, to support student persuasive and informational writing as well as performance on the state standardized writing exam. This multi-site cluster randomized controlled study evaluated the effectiveness of SRSD on student writing outcomes including prompt adherence, elements, and holistic quality. Multilevel modeling analysis was used to evaluate data from 418 fourth -grade students (256 treatment, 162 control) nested across 33 classes (n = 17 treatment taught by 8 departmentalized teachers; 16 control, 9 departmentalized teachers) within 11 schools randomly assigned to condition. Teachers implemented SRSD with high fidelity (M = 92%; range 91–100%). SRSD had a statistically significant and large effect on prompt adherence (p < .001; Hedges’ g = 1.87), elements (p < .001; Hedges’ g = 0.84) and holistic scores (p < .001; Hedges’ g = 0.87), while holding gender and pretest scores constant. Effects of SRSD on all writing measures were not significantly moderated by students’ gender, students’ pretest scores, or schools’ pretest scores. There were complications with teacher observations, especially related to technology. Limitations and future directions are discussed.  相似文献

基于学校属性的现代学校制度设计     

潘希武 《中学教育》2010,(2):38-42,59

学校性格决定了现代学校制度构建的基本方向和总体架构。现代学校各项制度的构建都可以从学校的属性中找到依据，或者说，学校属性是现代学校制度建设正当性的依据。由于学校的性格呈现多元化，或者说学校应具有的价值追求存在多元化，因此现代学校制度应是一个包容多元价值的结构。  相似文献   

PLCs: Key PD component in learning transfer for teachers of English learners     

《Teaching and Teacher Education》2017

As part of a two-year long professional development program for in-service teachers leading to endorsement in English as a Second Language (ESL), this investigation examined teachers' perceptions of the role of professional learning communities on their professional development experience, particularly on their sharing and transfer of learning into their instructional practice. Results from this mixed-methods research indicated that teachers perceived their professional learning communities, especially the reflective dialogue enacted during their weekly Try It Out discussion based on peers’ strategy implementations, as the most relevant component of their professional development program to their transferring of learning into their instructional practice.  相似文献
