The science supervisor and the utilization of curriculum materials     

Glenn D. Berkheimer 《科学教学研究杂志》1967,5(1):20-27

Would the reader identify with a supervisor of K-6 science, a supervisor selecting NSF-sponsored materials, or a university science educator? The author finds differences in the perception of a supervisor's role.  相似文献   

Contingency Awareness in Infants and Children with Severe and Profound Learning Disabilities     

Yvonne O'Brien  Sheila Glenn  Cliff Cunningham 《International Journal of Disability, Development & Education》1994,41(3):231-243

Seven infants and children with severe, profound and multiple learning difficulties (CA 3 months to 4 years, MA 2 months to 12 months, mean MA 4.5 months) were presented with a contingency situation where they could control the onset of a visually and auditorily attractive toy. In this situation their responding increased and some positive emotional effects were seen. When they were subsequently unable to control stimulation, negative effects were seen on a range of emotional, motivational and self‐stimulation measures. These results suggest that from a mental age level of 2 months children are equipped to detect cause and effect relationships and build up a picture of their world based on expectancies about such relationships; and that violations of these expectancies can lead to negative effects.  相似文献   

Qualitätssicherung im österreichischen Hochschulsystem     

Anke Hanft  Alexander Kohler 《Zeitschrift für Hochschulrecht, Hochschulmanagement und Hochschulpolitik: zfhr》2007,6(3):83-93

Die ?sterreichischen Universit?ten und Fachhochschulen sind gesetzlich dazu aufgefordert, interne Qualit?tssicherungsprozesse und -systeme zu entwickeln. Der Grundsatz der Erstverantwortlichkeit der Hochschulen für die Sicherung von Qualit?t in Lehre, Forschung und Organisation tr?gt der Hochschulautonomie Rechnung, und er kommt durch die im Zuge des Bologna-Prozesses vereinbarten Europ?ischen Standards der Qualit?tssicherung zum Ausdruck. Als Qualit?tssicherungsagentur für den gesamten Hochschulbereich in ?sterreich bietet die AQA Universit?ten und Fachhochschulen externe Begleitung, vermittelt unabh?ngige Expertise und führt Evaluierungen durch. Die AQA hat ihre Leistungen und Verfahren auf Grundlage europ?ischer Standards der externen Qualit?tssicherung für Universit?ten und Fachhochschulen entwickelt. Die Verfahren der AQA stellen die hochschulinterne Qualit?tskultur in den Mittelpunkt: Basierend auf den Erfahrungen mit externen Evaluierungsverfahren und des Hochschulvergleichen, welche die AQA seit 2004 durchgeführt hat, implementiert die Agentur nun ein Verfahren, welches das hochschulinterne Qualit?tsmanagement st?rken soll und den Hochschulen l?ngerfristig eine Zertifizierung ihres Qualit?tsmanagements bietet. Die AQA stellt hierfür die Expertise internationaler Expertinnen und Experten zu Themen des Hochschulmanagements bereit und nutzt Kooperationen mit anderen Qualit?tssicherungsagenturen. Auf l?ngere Sicht k?nnte ein prozessorientiertes "Quality Audit"-Verfahren eine Referenz der externen Qualit?tssicherung für den gesamten ?sterreichischen Hochschulbereich darstellen.  相似文献   

Factors underlying students' decisions to use mobile devices in clinical settings

University policies prohibiting use of mobile devices by medical students during clinical placements are contradicted by regular use by physicians. Consequently, many students use their mobile devices, which can be beneficial for learning but may put patient privacy at risk. This study explores the reasons underlying students' decisions about using mobile devices in clinical settings. We used a mixed-methods sequential explanatory design involving a questionnaire and focus groups. Qualitative data from the questionnaire and focus groups was analysed through thematic analysis. We found students were aware of the risks mobile devices posed to professionalism and medical practice. Despite prohibitions, many made individual decisions to use mobile devices because the benefits outweighed the risks. These students were influenced by an organised, strategic approach to learning and a motivation to comply with the beliefs and behaviours of their medical teams and conform to physicians' directives in order to participate in their community of practice. Many students appear to be transferring everyday use of mobile devices to clinical settings. There is a need to understand and promote aspects of learning that are enhanced by mobile devices in clinical settings, while articulating clear guidelines and boundaries compatible with the professional behaviour expected of students.  相似文献   

Exploring Views about LARCs Among Parenting Rural Latinx Teenagers,Their Mothers,and Providers: Implications for Sexuality Education and Care     

Yumary Ruiz  Shaina Riciputi  Vincent Guilamo-Ramos  Stewart C. Alexander 《American journal of sexuality education》2019,14(2):165-185

While long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) reduces risk of repeat-births, use remains low among rural Latinx adolescent mothers. This qualitative study identified perspectives about factors that influence LARC use among this population. Participants were dyads of parenting Latinx adolescent daughters and their mothers (n?=?9 dyads) and nurses (n?=?17). Findings revealed themes specific to this vulnerable population including (a) distinct ways LARC characteristics fit into parenting teenagers’ lives, (b) supportive health care climate toward LARCs, and (c) factors that inhibit LARC uptake. The study has implications for sexuality education that seeks to reduce repeat-births among this population.  相似文献   

THE JEWISH CHARITIES AND JEWISH EDUCATION     

Alexander M. Dushkin 《Journal of Jewish Education》2013,79(1):10-19

Introduction

The principal of an afternoon religious school is at the hub of the school's activities. It is quite likely that if the principal is performing adequately, then the school is functioning as it should. Therefore, it is imperative that the principal be evaluated on the basis of how well the principal performs assigned duties.  相似文献   

Response to Intervention in Middle Schools: Practices and Outcomes     

Sara Prewett  Daryl F. Mellard  Donald D. Deshler  Justin Allen  Ryan Alexander  Amelia Stern 《Learning disabilities research & practice》2012,27(3):136-147

Response to intervention (RTI) is advocated in elementary school as a system‐wide, multitiered model of academic and behavioral interventions. Middle schools have begun adopting RTI models based on these existing elementary models. This investigation into current middle school RTI practices describes technical aspects as well as some of cultural and contextual issues surrounding implementation. The study included multiple data collection procedures including surveys, discussion groups, phone interviews, and site visits. Although many schools reported substantial progress with implementation, they recognized rigorous implementation of RTI posed such on‐going challenges as changes in staffing, curricular realignments, very limited selections of screening and progress monitoring tools aligned with their curriculum, and scheduling of secondary and tertiary level interventions.  相似文献
