School‐based support for children with conduct disorders; a qualitative longitudinal study of high‐need families          下载免费PDF全文

Madeleine Stevens 《British Educational Research Journal》2018,44(5):781-801

Primary school‐aged children with conduct problems are at risk of future antisocial and criminal behaviour, particularly when there are additional family‐level risk factors. However, little is known about how school‐related factors can reduce that risk. This qualitative longitudinal study investigates school‐related influences on changes in the behaviour of at‐risk children in high‐need families over a period of 5 years. Families of 11 children with serious behaviour problems were followed over the transition to secondary school. In‐depth interviews with mothers, and with practitioners who support the child or family, explored school‐related factors which appeared helpful or unhelpful in improving children's behaviour over time. The analysis found that the disjuncture between the nurture experienced at primary school and a lack of nurture later at secondary school was problematic. Children tended to change primary school until they found one prepared to offer them a high level of nurture and supervision. Consistent relationships with supportive adults were important, but were rare after the transfer to secondary school. Literacy problems remained unrecognised or unaddressed for too long, contributing to children's lack of engagement. Inconsistent disciplinary responses to minor behaviour issues tended to escalate problems and most children were eventually excluded from mainstream education. Communication between parents and school staff was often problematic; parents sometimes experienced school contacts as burdensome, ill‐informed and unsupportive. However, good communication could aid development of successful approaches to supporting children with difficult behaviour.  相似文献   

Literacy and citizenship: an intercultural perspective     

David Stevens 《Changing English: An International Journal of English Teaching》2005,12(2):253-263

In this paper I report on a small scale teaching project indicated by the general title above. The overall aim of the project has been to investigate and if possible enhance pupils' understanding and experience of two key areas of contemporary educational concern—literacy and citizenship—through a creative intercultural perspective. The teaching and research seek to suggest both connections and contrasts, starting from a critical cultural awareness of the ‘familiar’ and from there reaching outwards—although the movement is by no means in this direction only. The project has notions of literacy and citizenship at its very core: literacy as broadly covering our ways of appreciating ourselves and our world through language; citizenship as suggestive of the ways of thinking, feeling and behaving which may result from (and in turn determine) our understanding.  相似文献

面对周围人的友善。生病的我内心深深领悟到了人生的美好。我坚信:一切都会好起来的。UCLA Medical Center was a big,scary place to aneleven-year-old who was away from home for the firsttime.The sounds and smell seemed foreign.Whiteshoes squeaked(吱吱声)on the highly pohshed(光亮的)floors.People were paged over an intercom,buzzers rang,andthe faint smell of alcohol seemed everywhere.In the bed next to me,and closest to the window,was ayoung girl about my age.The first thing I noticed about herwas her beautiful eves and bright smile.I wondered how shecould seem so happy in this strange place.She had gonethrough the glass of a sliding door(拉门)and had bandages(绷带)covering the stitches(缝线).I knew she had to be in somepain,but she WaS friendly and a welcome companion.It was the late 1950s and a tumor(瘤)had been discoveredin the bone marrow of my right ankle.  相似文献

Probabilities and Predictions: Modeling the Development of Scientific Problem-Solving Skills     

Ron Stevens  David F. Johnson    Amy Soller 《CBE life sciences education》2005,4(1):42-57

The IMMEX (Interactive Multi-Media Exercises) Web-based problem set platform enables the online delivery of complex, multimedia simulations, the rapid collection of student performance data, and has already been used in several genetic simulations. The next step is the use of these data to understand and improve student learning in a formative manner. This article describes the development of probabilistic models of undergraduate student problem solving in molecular genetics that detailed the spectrum of strategies students used when problem solving, and how the strategic approaches evolved with experience. The actions of 776 university sophomore biology majors from three molecular biology lecture courses were recorded and analyzed. Each of six simulations were first grouped by artificial neural network clustering to provide individual performance measures, and then sequences of these performances were probabilistically modeled by hidden Markov modeling to provide measures of progress. The models showed that students with different initial problem-solving abilities choose different strategies. Initial and final strategies varied across different sections of the same course and were not strongly correlated with other achievement measures. In contrast to previous studies, we observed no significant gender differences. We suggest that instructor interventions based on early student performances with these simulations may assist students to recognize effective and efficient problem-solving strategies and enhance learning.  相似文献

Character Motivations in the Representation of Mental Health Professionals in Popular Film     

Stephen Dine Young Ph.D.  Ashley Boester M.A.  Margaret Tate Whitt M.S.Ed.  Megan Stevens Psy.D. 《Mass Communication and Society》2013,16(1):82-99

A narrative approach to studying media that focuses on character motivations represented in film is presented. A content analysis identified the motivations of 58 mental health professional characters represented in popular films (1990–1999). These characters were most commonly motivated by money, power, or a concern for others. Characters motivated by love/lust or self-healing were less common. Young female characters were more strongly motivated by love than other characters. Those characters motivated by a concern for others also tended to be motivated by a need for self-healing but not by a need for power. The distortions and insights of cinematic depictions of mental health professionals' motivations are considered. The implications of a narrative approach for future audience response media research are also discussed.  相似文献
