Motivation in gifted students     

Niki Phillips 《High Ability Studies》2006,17(1):57-73

This study investigated the factors which had influenced the role of motivation in the high levels of achievement of a sample of fifteen gifted students, aged 14/15 years, in five secondary schools in England. The students were interviewed individually, and their parents and teachers were also interviewed for validation of the students' comments. The results indicated the influences of teaching and learning provision, of support and of social and emotional factors on the students' motivation. The role of motivation in the realisation of the students' high ability, in achievement of personal goals and in maintaining the progress and achievements of those who had problems was also clear. Evidence of the importance of both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation in the students' achievement was also shown.  相似文献   

Galileo's ‘Jumping-Hill’ Experiment in the Classroom – A Constructivist's Analysis     

Kubli  Fritz 《Science & Education》2001,10(1-2):145-148

Historical elements can improve scienceteaching if they are suitably introduced into theclassroom. Galileo's jumping-hill experiment can betaken as an example. The following considerations showthat the reproduced experiment can stimulate ananimated discussion in the classroom, even if itsprecise historic circumstances are not mentioned. Onthe other hand, the historical dimension brings somecolour into the lesson, which increases attention.  相似文献

What Undergraduate Physical Education Majors Learn during a Field Experience     

Mary O'sullivan  Niki Tsangaridou 《Research quarterly for exercise and sport》2013,84(4):381-392

Abstract

This study aimed at supporting the specificity of learning hypothesis, when aiming was based on internal cues, as directing the hand toward a “self-defined” target location. Participants practiced modest (20 trials) or intensive (720 trials) training with visual and proprioceptive information or proprioceptive information only. Pretests and posttests were performed in sensory conditions that did or did not match the training condition. Results showed that dynamic visual cues played a dominant role at the beginning of the task, and an intensive practice resulted in increased accuracy of kinesthetic information and efferent mechanisms of motor responses. These results have implications with regard to motor learning conceptions and training as a function of the task constraints.  相似文献   

Examining the effects of home literacy and numeracy environment on early reading and math acquisition     

George Manolitsis  George K. Georgiou  Niki Tziraki 《Early childhood research quarterly》2013

The present study examined how the home literacy and numeracy environment in kindergarten influences reading and math acquisition in grade 1. Eighty-two Greek children from mainly middle socioeconomic backgrounds were followed from kindergarten to grade 1 and were assessed on measures of nonverbal intelligence, emergent literacy skills, early math concepts, verbal counting, reading, and math fluency. The parents of the children also responded to a questionnaire regarding the frequency of home literacy and numeracy activities. The results of path analyses indicated that parents’ teaching of literacy skills predicted reading fluency through the effects of letter knowledge and phonological awareness. Storybook exposure predicted reading fluency through the effects of vocabulary on phonological awareness. Finally, parents’ teaching of numeracy skills predicted math fluency through the effects of verbal counting. These findings suggest that both the home literacy and the home numeracy environments are important for early reading and math acquisition, but their effects are mediated by emergent literacy and numeracy skills.  相似文献   

Information Technology in United Kingdom Initial Teacher Education, 1982–92     

Niki Davis 《Technology, Pedagogy and Education》2013,22(1):7-21

ABSTRACT

During the past decade the introduction of microcomputers has been a major innovation in the United Kingdom (UK). This new technology has enormous potential to improve teaching and learning and it continues to offer an exciting challenge to educationalists. This paper reviews the development of information technology (IT) in initial teacher education. The change in IT courses over time reflects the development of a more critical view on the effect of IT on teaching and learning and the cross curricular aspect of IT in the UK National Curriculum. Many issues still remain and can result in a lack of IT competence in newly trained teachers. In 1990 IT became the only skill to be specifically listed within the guidelines for teacher training accreditation by the UK government Current issues and strategies to improve IT components of initial teacher education courses are discussed.  相似文献
