Boys and machines: gendered computer identities,regulation and resistance     

Jane Abbiss 《Gender and education》2011,23(5):601-617

Students negotiate their masculine and feminine identities as students of information and communication technology (ICT) and computer users as they participate in specialist ICT courses and in other areas of their lives. As they negotiate these roles, they are established in relations of power and authority with the technology and with each other. Case study research relating to students’ experiences in specialist computer courses in a New Zealand secondary school reveals a complex and dynamic picture of identity construction and subjectivity. In constructing their personal identities as computer users, males and females experience the regulatory forces of gender relations while at the same time resisting stereotypes. Students make conscious and pragmatic decisions to pursue particular computing courses and paths as they balance their options in the realisation of their possible selves as computer users and adults in the world of work. These decisions signify regulation by and resistance to gendered power relations.  相似文献   

从差异中窥见相似——从日本高中理科课程的变迁看新课程     

孙新 《课程.教材.教法》2011,(8)

生活单元学习.问题解决时期的日本理科课程的特点表明,形式上矛盾源于引进与继承,实质上是两种文化在教育理念上的碰撞。系统.探究的理科时期,形式上矛盾源于照搬和本土化,实质上是学术化与实用技能训练在教育理念上的碰撞……虽然国情不同、历史背景不同、发展阶段不同,差异看似很大,但中日两国理科课程的变迁确有相似之处。研究日本高中理科课程所处的时代背景、目标、结构与内容,分析其课程地位的变化,了解其现行课程的构成特点以及课程变迁的具体过程,目的在于以此重新思考中国课程变革的历史,以期他山之石,可以攻玉。  相似文献

Videobased lesson analysis: Effective science PD for teacher and student learning     

Kathleen J. Roth  Helen E. Garnier  Catherine Chen  Meike Lemmens  Kathleen Schwille  Nicole I.Z. Wickler 《科学教学研究杂志》2011,48(2):117-148

The Science Teachers Learning from Lesson Analysis (STeLLA) project is a videobased analysis‐of‐practice PD program aimed at improving teacher and student learning at the upper elementary level. The PD program developed and utilized two “lenses,” a Science Content Storyline Lens and a Student Thinking Lens, to help teachers analyze science teaching and learning and to improve teaching practices in this year‐long program. Participants included 48 teachers (n = 32 experimental, n = 16 control) and 1,490 students. The STeLLA program significantly improved teachers' science content knowledge and their ability to analyze science teaching. Notably, the STeLLA teachers further increased their classroom use of science teaching strategies associated with both lenses while their students increased their science content knowledge. Multi‐level HLM analyses linked higher average gains in student learning with teachers' science content knowledge, teachers' pedagogical content knowledge about student thinking, and teaching practices aimed at improving the coherence of the science content storyline. This paper highlights the importance of the science content storyline in the STeLLA program and discusses its potential significance in science teaching and professional development more broadly. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc., J Res Sci Teach 48: 117–148, 2011  相似文献   

Changes in instructors' assessment thinking related to experimentation with new strategies     

Erika G. Offerdahl  Debra Tomanek 《Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education》2011,36(7):781-795

Formative assessment has been recognised as a critical element in teaching for conceptual development. A case study research design was employed to: (1) characterise the assessment thinking of three science instructors at a research‐based university; and (2) examine the complex relationship between instructor thinking and practice by encouraging experimentation with alternative assessment strategies. Interviews, reflective journals, field notes and course documents were the data sources used to create a single case study that documented the development of these university instructors’ assessment thinking during their experimentation with formative assessment strategies. Throughout two semesters of experimentation, the instructors’ assessment thinking became more sophisticated; they grew to view the purpose of assessment less as a summative activity used for the assignment of marks and more as a tool for diagnosing student learning. However, more sophisticated thinking was not associated with revisions in teaching practice based on formative assessment data. Further investigations are needed to more completely understand the nature of assessment thinking and how assessment thinking influences assessment practices. Implications for professional development of university‐level science instructors include personalised experiences through which instructors can become active participants in gathering evidence of student learning that promotes growth in assessment thinking.  相似文献   

Negative school factors and their influence on math and science achievement in TIMSS 2003     

Tina Vršnik Perše  Ana Kozina  Tina Rutar Leban 《Educational studies》2011,37(3):265-276

The aim of the present study was to conduct an analysis of TIMSS (Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study) 2003 database and to determine how negative school factors, such as aggression, are associated to the mathematical and science achievement of students. The analyses were conducted separately for national and international data. National analyses for Slovenia show significant associations between math and science achievement and the experience of aggressive behaviour. Students who experienced aggressive behaviour scored lower in math and science, both in the fourth and in the eighth grade. The results of the regression analysis show that negative factors, such as aggressive behaviour, are good predictors of educational achievement in Slovenia. International analyses for the selected countries (high‐ and low‐achieving countries from the whole TIMSS population) confirm that this type of finding is culturally impartial as well as valid for the level of achievement both in math and in science.  相似文献
