Seizing the Moment: Reflections on Play Opportunities for Disabled Children in the Early Years     

Alison Bishop  John Swain  & Hazel Bines 《British Journal of Educational Studies》1999,47(2):170-183

Current policy in relation to special needs prioritises early intervention and inclusive education, at least as 'good intentions' This article argues for a paradigmatic shift away from individualist models of learning and disability. The social context of play is emphasised as the crucial arena for realising such good intentions, as long as it is geared to responding to, and developing, the self-determination, control, and identity of young disabled children becoming disabled adults in a disabling society.  相似文献

Portfolio Assessment as National Policy: the National Council for Vocational Qualifications and its quest for a pedagogical revolution     

Alison Wolf 《Assessment in Education: Principles, Policy & Practice》1998,5(3):413-445

The National Council for Vocational Qualifications established assessment procedures for qualifications in England, Wales and Northern Ireland in which portfolios play a central role. The relevant qualifications (National Vocational Qualifications and General National Vocational Qualifications) have been taken by large numbers of young people in upper secondary schooling, and young people and adults in work or in government training schemes; and are intended to have labour market currency and to provide routes into further and higher education. The use of portfolios derives from a commitment to direct and comprehensive assessment of the whole ‘syllabus’, but also from a belief in certain pedagogical approaches and in enhancing students' independence and initiative. There is evidence that the approach has affected learning styles, but major problems have arisen relating to the manageability of the approach and the reliability of assessor judgements.  相似文献   

Young Children Are Wishful Thinkers: The Development of Wishful Thinking in 3- to 10-Year-Old Children     

Adrienne O. Wente  Mariel K. Goddu  Teresa Garcia  Elyanah Posner  María Fernández Flecha  Alison Gopnik 《Child development》2020,91(4):1166-1182

Previously, research on wishful thinking has found that desires bias older children’s and adults’ predictions during probabilistic reasoning tasks. In this article, we explore wishful thinking in children aged 3- to 10-years-old. Do young children learn to be wishful thinkers? Or do they begin with a wishful thinking bias that is gradually overturned during development? Across five experiments, we compare low- and middle-income United States and Peruvian 3- to 10-year-old children (N = 682). Children were asked to make predictions during games of chance. Across experiments, preschool-aged children from all backgrounds consistently displayed a strong wishful thinking bias. However, the bias declined with age.  相似文献   

The Construction of Masculine Science     

Alison Kelly 《British Journal of Sociology of Education》1985,6(2):133-154

The masculinity of science can be studied as a topic in the cultural reproduction of gender. In this paper four distinct, but not necessarily contradictory, accounts of the way in which science comes to be seen as a masculine subject are examined. It is argued that schools could play a transformative, rather than a reproductive, role in the formation of gender identities.  相似文献   

Students' perceptions of their information literacy skills: the confidence gap between male and female international graduate students     

Russell Michalak  Monica D.T. Rysavy  Alison Wessel 《The Journal of Academic Librarianship》2017,43(2):100-104

In the 2015 Summer Session I, the information literacy team combined two instruments, the Information Literacy Assessment (ILA) and the Students' Perceptions of Their Information Literacy Skills Questionnaire (SPIL-Q), into one survey and distributed it to the college's international graduate students through a Google Form. It was distributed to 932 international graduate students, and 172 valid respondents completed the survey. The purpose of this research was to compare the confidence gap in information literacy skills between men and women, particularly in international graduate students. Data collected illustrated that female international business students (n = 70) tended to be slightly more confident than their male counterparts (n = 102) regarding their perceived information literacy skills as evidenced by their SPIL-Q average score across all six IL topics, 3.78, vs. male student's average score of 3.58.  相似文献

Implementation of a Research Information Management System in a Pediatric Hospital     

Alison D. Kissling  Kimberly D. Ballinger 《Medical reference services quarterly》2018,37(2):184-197

Faculty publications have been collected in universities, health, and medical institutions for many years, and Cincinnati Children’s is no exception. Since 1949, a yearly list of faculty publications was manually compiled using multiple data sources and disseminated by the Edward L. Pratt Research Library. Products to centralize faculty publication collection and analysis with bibliometric tools are growing in popularity. This article will review the collaborative decision to choose a Research Information Management System and the implementation process including successes, challenges, and future opportunities.  相似文献
