Ecological Study of Graduation Rates and GPA in a Library Credit Course     

Christina Heady  Megan M. Morrison  Joshua Vossler 《The Journal of Academic Librarianship》2018,44(5):642-649

The purpose of this ecological study was to examine the impact of a library credit course on graduation rates and GPA using pre-existing records. Over 20?years of aggregate institutional data were analyzed to evaluate the course's impact on first-time-full-time, white, and black students. Results were mixed: students who took the course were less likely to graduate than their peers who did not take the course but enjoyed slightly higher GPAs at graduation. It was discovered that students taking the course are not representative of the overall student body and struggle academically. Implications for revisions to the library credit course are discussed.  相似文献

How can pre-service primary teachers' perspectives contribute to a pedagogy that problematises the ‘practical’ in teacher education?     

Déirdre Ní Chróinín  Ailbhe Kenny  Elaine Murtagh  Elaine Vaughan 《Irish Educational Studies》2013,32(2):251-267

This study examined pre-service primary teachers' perspectives on teaching and learning experiences within college-based courses in ‘practical’ subject areas within a teacher education programme. Following three individual lectures (one each in art, music and physical education), pre-service teachers (n=11) participated in focus group interviews sharing their perspectives on the teaching and learning experiences. These data were analysed thematically and supported by teacher educators' (n=3) planning and reflection documentation. Although the problematic nature of the ‘practical’ suggests appeal and peril of the ‘practical’, the important nature of negotiating the ‘practical’ to enhance student learning is apparent. Students emphasised the value of practical engagement and expressed a strong preference for working in groups to create a safe learning environment to develop confidence and competence. These insights suggest key aspects of a pedagogy of teacher education in these ‘practical’ areas. The importance of being aware of and, in some cases, challenging student perspectives on how they learn best in these curricular areas is discussed.  相似文献

Small scholar‐led scholarly journals: Can they survive and thrive in an open access future?          下载免费PDF全文

Heather Morrison 《Learned Publishing》2016,29(2):83-88

This article presents early results of a research project designed to further our understanding of how to ensure that small scholar‐led journals can survive and thrive in a global open access knowledge commons. This phase of the research focuses on generation of ideas through interviews and focus groups with 15 participants involved in producing small scholar‐led journals that either are or would like to become open access. Although a couple of journals reported that they could survive in an open access future based on existing resources, most were concerned about survival and none expressed confidence that they could thrive in an open‐access future. These journals are far more diverse than one might imagine. Comparing the costs of article production from one journal with another might not make sense. A number of avenues for further research are discussed.  相似文献

The art of redirection     

Johnetta Wade Morrison 《Early Childhood Education Journal》1991,18(4):4-7

Joey and Mary, along with three other children and the teacher, are seated at one of several tables having their snack. Mary's plate has no crackers. Giggling, Mary begins poking at Joey's plate, which still has crackers, as if she intends to snatch one. The teacher asks, “Mary, would you like more crackers?” Mary continues the poking action during the interchange and responds, “Yes.” The teacher directs Mary, saying, “Get a package of crackers from the supply table and see if other tables need additional crackers. If you would like more, then get three crackers for yourself”.  相似文献
