Peer facilitated writing groups: a programmatic approach to doctoral student writing     

Vijay Kumar  Claire Aitchison 《Teaching in Higher Education》2018,23(3):360-373

Very few empirical studies have investigated programmes in which doctoral students act as peer facilitators in faculty writing groups. We report on the development of a centrally delivered doctoral student writing programme in which twenty student participants were mentored and provided with the resources to initiate their own faculty-based doctoral writing groups. ‘Legitimate peripheral participation’ was used as a conceptual lens to interpret the data collected during the establishment and evaluation of the programme. All student participants in the preparatory training course, which was developed in consultation with postgraduate students and research supervisors, went on to become doctoral writing peer facilitators of peer writing groups. Insights from seven of these showed how a well-structured and supportive programme harnessed the benefits of peer learning by bringing personal rewards to participants and building institutional capacity around doctoral research writing literacies.  相似文献   

Agile administrative choreographies for multimode education at the University of Pretoria     

Tony John Mays  Folake Ruth Aluko 《Distance Education》2019,40(1):5-19

This paper responds in part to a special edition of this journal (39/2) on dual-mode provision. We were concerned that contact providers might drift into distance education provision through extending campus-based online learning without first thinking through the underpinning implications of its administrative systems, an issue that was not addressed in the special edition. Proceeding from a pragmatic and constructivist perspective, while adopting a transactional orientation drawing on systems theory and hermeneutics, this paper focuses on the challenge for administrative staff and systems of the changing nature of provision in terms of both the underpinning learning and business models. Based on experience and reflection, we conclude that the move into dual- and multimode provision is inevitable and that this requires agility on the part of both administrative staff and systems that is often overlooked in planning and review processes.  相似文献   

Breaking the tyranny of office hours: Overcoming professor avoidance     

Elizabeth K. Briody  Angela Goldenstein  Edward J. Berger 《European Journal of Engineering Education》2019,44(5):666-687

ABSTRACT

Studies have found that Faculty–Student Interaction (FSI) has many positive benefits for students including academic support, professional development, mentoring, and career planning. Research-intensive universities exhibit the lowest levels of faculty–student interaction within higher education. This article utilises qualitative methods to explore faculty, student, and staff perceptions of faculty–student interactions, particularly those that take place out of the classroom, at a research-intensive public U.S. university. We identify social distance between faculty and students based on unequal status within a rigid, hierarchically-organised culture as a key barrier to FSI. We then discuss methods that some of the faculty in our study used to mitigate their social distance with students in an effort to increase FSI.  相似文献

从行政决策过程分析媒体的积极角色     

梁丰 《遵义师范学院学报》2011,13(5)

对于媒体角色的定位和划分．有些学者根据其与政府的关系,归纳为“喉舌论”、“第四权力论”、“挑战者论”及“双赢论”。文章将侧重从行政决策全过程的视角去考察媒体所扮演的积极角色,预测媒体角色的发展趋势．探讨媒体与决策机构、民众的互动中形成的一种互利共赢的良好局面。  相似文献   

远程教育学习支持服务满意度调查分析   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

章玳  徐正东 《中国远程教育(综合版)》2011,(4)

远程教育机构关注的焦点在于学生的学。本研究把学习者的满意度作为学习支持服务的衡量标尺,从服务对象出发,展开学习支持服务满意度调查。结果表明,学习者对学习支持服务总体上呈现出比较满意的状态。专业对学生满意度影响较为显著;就地域来看,苏北、苏南区域差异变得不甚明显。研究者认为,必须根据学习者的需求,针对学习支持服务中存在的问题,更新理念,投入更多的人力与物力,为建设开放大学打下坚实基础。  相似文献

基于性别差异的我国高校毕业生就业特征研究     

敖山  丁小浩 《教育与经济》2011,(2)

本研究基于北京大学2009年度全国高校毕业生就业抽样调查数据,针对社会科学研究中的高度复杂性、非线性和不确定性特征,运用复杂性科学研究中的神经网络拟合仿真方法,较好地分离出性别差异对我国高校毕业生就业工作特征和流动特征的影响。研究表明:性别因素将会导致10.89%的薪金差距;男性获得就业地户口的机率比女性高出9.27%;从整体上看,男女大学生就业单位性质的差异并不明显。相对上述就业工作特征,毕业生流动特征的性别差异较为显著:男性毕业生比女性具有更强的流动性,除了就业流动以外,上学流动、毕业流动的性别差异度分别是19.5%和23.77%,全流动差异更是达到了40.57%;而男女毕业生就业流动概率的差异度仅有2.77个百分点,其主要是女性的流动惰性所造成的。  相似文献
