Teaching science skills and knowledge to students with developmental disabilities: A systematic review     

Magdalena M. Apanasionok  Richard P. Hastings  Corinna F. Grindle  Richard C. Watkins  Andreas Paris 《科学教学研究杂志》2019,56(7):847-880

A comprehensive review of the literature was conducted to identify current practice on teaching science to students with intellectual disability (ID) and/or Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in relation to two review questions—students' science outcomes and students' and teachers' experiences of the interventions. Six databases related to education, psychology, and science were systematically searched. A detailed protocol can be viewed on PROSPERO (registration number: CRD42017057323). Thirty studies were identified that reported on science interventions and 20 on student/teacher experiences of the interventions. The majority of the studies targeted science vocabulary and concepts. Other targets included inquiry skills and comprehension skills. The majority of the interventions used components of systematic instruction (n = 23). Five studies focused on self-directed learning and two on comprehension-based instruction. Students and teachers reported positive experiences of the interventions. The findings suggest that components of systematic instruction in particular might be effective in teaching science content to students with ID and/or ASD. Further research is needed to explore the effectiveness of identified interventions on teaching more complex science skills and with students with severe disabilities. Some limitations related to the search strategy are highlighted.  相似文献   

Consistently inconsistent: An examination of the variability in the identification of emotional disturbance     

Kristin Scardamalia  Keisha L. Bentley‐Edwards  Kairys Grasty 《Psychology in the schools》2019,56(4):569-581

The federal definition of emotional disturbance (ED) has been heavily criticized as vaguely defined and poorly operationalized yet there has not been a formal analysis of the reliability of the ED criteria. This study examined the reliability of the federal criteria for a special education designation of ED. A total of 179 school psychologists reviewed a mock special education report, made an eligibility determination, and provided information about their eligibility decision. In all, 56 participants found the student met ED eligibility criteria using 16 different combinations of the five criteria. Krippendorff’s α, a statistic preferred for content analysis, was calculated as a measure of criterion reliability. Results indicated extremely poor reliability (α = 0.2011). These findings demonstrate the importance of redefining the existing criteria.  相似文献   

Educating sick children: an Irish hospital school in context, 1900–1980     

Barry Kennerk 《History of education》2019,48(3):356-373

The teaching of sick children in hospital is an often overlooked aspect of Ireland’s national education system. Prior to the 1970s, there was hardly any formal structure in place for this type of schooling in the country, despite the fact that many children could be inpatients for weeks or months at a time. In 1980, a report, published by the Association for the Welfare of Children in Ireland, revealed that although there had been an improvement in the intervening decade, only 6% of hospitals had a dedicated schoolroom. Drawing on previously unresearched papers belonging to Temple Street Children’s Hospital, this article will take a closer look at the socio-political forces that held back the development of the hospital classroom in Ireland for so many decades; it will also explore some of the factors that promoted its development after 1970, thus helping to explain why the education of sick children is so firmly established today.  相似文献   

Teacher Empathy and Attitudes Towards Individuals with Disabilities     

Monika Parchomiuk 《International Journal of Disability, Development & Education》2019,66(1):56-69

The article presents research results of a study aimed at determining the correlation between empathy understood as a personality disposition and general attitudes towards individuals with disability. The sample consisted of 300 special education teachers working with persons with intellectual disabilities in primary and secondary schools and institutions of rehabilitation, and 280 general education teachers working with able-bodied students in primary and secondary schools. Two instruments were used: Empathic Understanding of Other People Questionnaire, and the Scale of Attitudes towards Individuals with Disability. In the group of special education teachers, only Syndrome 2 of empathy was statistically significant for shaping the attitudes, whereas among teachers, Syndromes 1, 3 and 4 were significant. In Syndromes 1, 2 and 4, including the highest level of emotional, cognitive, motivational and communication aspects of empathy, the correlations were positive as expected. In the case of Syndrome 3, including the considerable level of cognitive empathy, the correlation was negative.  相似文献

幂等矩阵与秩幂等矩阵的充要条件     

刘小川  何美 《雁北师范学院学报》2011,27(1)

满足A2=A的n阶方阵A称为幂等矩阵,它是矩阵环Mn（F）的一个幂等元;满足r（A）=r（A2）的n阶方阵A称为秩幂等矩阵。它们与空间的分解、不变子空间的研究有密切关系。利用线性空间的理论方法研究幂等矩阵与秩幂等矩阵的性质,分别得到与它们等价的一些充要条件。  相似文献
