Revisiting the effects of project-based learning on students’ academic achievement: A meta-analysis investigating moderators     

《Educational Research Review》2019

Project-based learning is generally considered an alternative to traditional, teacher-led instruction. However, there is a noticeable lack of meta-analyses with regard to determining its overall effects on students' academic achievement, and what study features may moderate the impacts of project-based learning. This study thus performed a meta-analysis to synthesize existing research that compared the effects of project-based learning and those of traditional instruction on student academic achievement. Forty-six effect sizes (comparisons) extracted from 30 eligible journal articles published from 1998 to 2017 were analyzed, representing 12,585 students from 189 schools in nine countries. The results showed that the overall mean weighted effect size (d₊) was 0.71, indicating that project-based learning has a medium to large positive effect on students' academic achievement compared with traditional instruction. In addition, the mean effect size was affected by subject area, school location, hours of instruction, and information technology support, but not by educational stage and small group size.  相似文献   

古代六部制度的渊源与发展     

林瑜 《南昌教育学院学报》2011,26(4):29-30

六部制度是我国古代职官制度的重要组成部分,萌芽于西汉,至隋朝正式确立,在唐朝进一步完善。在安史之乱后,由于使职趋重,六部权力被逐渐被分割,故在唐中叶以后,这一制度趋向名存实亡。本文探讨六部制度的发展脉络,以期对古代职官制度有更全面的理解。  相似文献

Academics’ conceptualisations of the research-teaching nexus in a research-intensive Irish university: A dynamic framework for growth & development     

《Learning and Instruction》2019

The interdependent relationship between research and teaching is at the heart of research-intensive universities. In the present study, an initial electronic quantitative survey was undertaken following which, we performed 28 in-depth, semi-structured interviews amongst a cross-section of faculty in a research intensive Irish university to capture how faculty conceptualise the relationship between research and teaching. Our qualitative analysis revealed a dynamic framework with three interacting phases: 1) teaching is enhanced by research 2) learning research skills and competencies; and 3) student engagement with research practice. These themes contribute to the development of the student as a researcher and the implicit vision of the research-intensive university as a ‘community of scholars’ where teaching enhances research and research enhances teaching. The perceived benefits of teaching on research provides a new insight into the research and teaching nexus from which the opportunity exists to foster these approaches and develop institutional policy to grow and sustain the research-teaching interactions.  相似文献   

学术用途英语(EAP)语篇体裁分析的框架探讨     

刘悦 《怀化学院学报》2011,30(7):103-104

从学术用途英语(EAP)语篇体裁的实际应用的重要性等出发,梳理目前EAP研究的现状,发现目前EAP的理论研究忽视了语篇体裁分析的功能性,而教学研究的功能兼容性差的特点;构造由学术体裁的语篇结构模式、学术语篇体裁结构的功能分析、学术语篇体裁的文体特征分析、学术语篇体裁的应用构成的EAP语篇体裁分析框架;从师资培养、处理好...  相似文献   

学术系统中的社会资本及其效应     

张斌 《复旦教育论坛》2011,9(5)

学术系统中的社会资本是学者在学术活动中获取和使用的嵌入在学术交流与合作网络中的资源,兼具社会性和学术性,主要表现为毕业院校、师徒关系和任职院校等形式。学术性社会资本既发挥着重要的正面作用,也显示出令人担忧的负面效应。如何面对学术性社会资本以及如何规避它的负面效应就成为优化学术系统运行机制、健全学术制度时不得不予以反思的两个问题。  相似文献   

向应用转型是中国研究生教育改革发展当务之急   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

随着我国产业结构的升级调整,转变传统的学术型人才培养体制,使之更好地满足社会需求,已成为研究生教育改革的当务之急.发展专业学位教育是高层次应用型人才的培养方式之一,但具有一定的局限性.因此,以学术分化为基础构建应用型硕士生培养制度才是解决问题的主要途径.  相似文献   

现代大学制度建设应体现法治精神     

祁占勇 《复旦教育论坛》2011,9(1):37-42

建设具有中国特色的现代大学制度既是我国高等教育事业发展的必然要求,也是对现代大学重新进行制度变迁与制度设计的再造,更是高等教育领域内的重建运动和制度选择.现代大学制度法治精神的重塑,应在现有法律框架下,依法调整高校与政府、社会的关系以及完善高校内部治理结构.高校与政府关系的良性运行,依赖于"有限政府"的"依法行政",政府对大学管理权限应集中在行政规划、行政监督、行政指导、经费分配等方面,其他事项则是高校办学自主权的范畴.而高校与社会的关系,则表现为公共教育权与社会教育权的博弈与平衡,通过"协调与张力模式"的整合,使二者的关系从索取走向支持、从非均衡走向均衡、从冲突走向融合,从而实现高校与社会关系的和谐发展.高校内部治理结构的完善,应彰显高校的学术逻辑,建构学术权力本位的高校内部治理结构.  相似文献   

台湾大学系所评鉴制度研究     

尚红娟 《复旦教育论坛》2011,9(1):51-55

台湾大学评鉴经学门评鉴,校务评鉴演变至系所评鉴.如果说高等教育评鉴中心的设立、系所评鉴机制的设计、评鉴流程的运作标志着大学评鉴在台湾的专业化趋向,那么评鉴结果与系所退场机制的结合则凸显了大学评鉴在台湾的本土化特色.  相似文献   

Health-related fitness knowledge growth in middle school years: Individual- and school-level correlates     

Xihe Zhu  Justin A. Haegele  Haichun Sun 《运动与健康科学(英文)》2020,9(6):664-669

BackgroundHealth-related fitness knowledge (HRFK) has been an essential concept for many health and physical education programs. There has been limited understanding and longitudinal investigation on HRFK growth. This longitudinal study examined HRFK growth and its individual- and school-level correlates in middle school years under 1 curriculum condition: Five for Life.MethodsParticipants were 12,044 students from 47 middle schools. Data were collected at both individual/participant and school/institution levels. Individual-level variables included gender, grade, and HRFK test scores. School-level variables included percentage of students receiving free and reduced meals (FARM), student-to-faculty ratio for physical education, and school academic performance (SAP). We used hierarchical linear modeling to examine HRFK 3-year growth in relation to individual- and school-level correlates.ResultsThe average HRFK score at 6th grade for females was 42.81% ± 1.32%. The predicted HRFK growth was 17.06% ± 1.02% per year, holding other factors constant. A 1-standard deviation increase in FARM correlated with a 14.68%-point decrease in predicted test score (p = 0.02). A 1-standard deviation increase in SAP was associated with an 11.90%-point increase in HRFK score. Males had a significantly lower growth rate than females during the middle school years (0.78%/year, p = 0.02).ConclusionThe result showed that both individual- and school-level variables such as gender, FARM, and SAP influenced HRFK growth. Educators should heed gender differences in growth curves and recognize the correlates of school-level variables.  相似文献
