Graduate Studies in the UK: Some Impressions and Suggestions     

Edward A. Holdaway 《Higher Education Quarterly》1993,47(3):237-258

Many western countries are paying increasing attention to the organization and administration of graduate studies. Such attention has developed from primary concerns about completion times, completion percentages, programme quality, and student quality, as well as secondary concerns about supervisors, funding, coursework, inter-organizational co-operation, and policies and practices of both universities and research councils. Using information about British graduate programmes as a basis, the article presents policy issues related to research councils, funding councils, and control, followed by discussion of the themes of the nature of programmes, supervision and evaluation, completion time, quality, and innovation. The final sections address several concerns and offer some suggestions.  相似文献

Extending validity evidence for multidimensional measures of coaching competency     

Myers ND  Wolfe EW  Maier KS  Feltz DL  Reckase MD 《Research quarterly for exercise and sport》2006,77(4):451-463

This study extended validity evidence for multidimensional measures of coaching competency derived from the Coaching Competency Scale (CCS; Myers, Feltz, Maier, Wolfe, & Reckase, 2006) by examining use of the original rating scale structure and testing how measures related to satisfaction with the head coach within teams and between teams. Motivation, game strategy, technique, and character building comprised the dimensions of coaching competency. Data were collected from athletes (N = 585) nested within intercollegiate men's (g = 8) and women's (g = 13) soccer and women's ice hockey (g = 11) teams (G = 32). Validity concerns were observed for the original rating scale structure and the predicted positive relationship between motivation competency and satisfaction with the coach between teams. Validity evidence was offered for a condensed post hoc rating scale and the predicted relationship between motivation competency and satisfaction with the coach within teams.  相似文献

<正> 尽管图书馆有着漫长的历史,但是"图书馆学校除美国早期的以外,却主要是二十世纪的产物".在布赖姆莱(G. Bramley)的这个论断之外,还应该加上丹顿(J. P. Danton)的观察,即在美国、欧洲以外的世界其它地方的图书馆学校显然都是在第二次世界大战之后才兴办起来的.对世界各地图书馆学校进行研究、比较,就会发现以下一些问题,诸如专业协会的影响逾越了国界;改变高等教育的形式影响一些国家图书馆学校的建立;学校数量的递增产生了对师资的需  相似文献   

Measuring Cultural Dimensions of Classroom Interactions     

Bryant Jensen  Sara Grajeda  Edward Haertel 《Educational Assessment》2018,23(4):250-276

We trace the development and analyze the generalizability of the Classroom Assessment of Sociocultural Interactions (CASI), an observation system designed to measure cultural dimensions of classroom interactions. We establish CASI measurement properties by analyzing panoramic videos of 4th and 5th grade classrooms from the Measures of Effective Teaching project, and argue for its significance in terms of achievement opportunity for minoritized students and needed evidence regarding equitable teaching. We frame ten dimensions of sociocultural interactions within three domains: Life Applications (i.e., connections with what students know and do outside of school); Self in Group (i.e., interdependence to motivate learning and foster social identities); and Agency (i.e., how freedom and choice are managed).

We demonstrate how measurement error is associated with raters, lessons, and lesson segments, and discuss implications for CASI refinement, as well as appropriate instrument uses to enrich learning opportunities for minoritized students across a variety of classroom settings.  相似文献   

How U.S. and Chinese journalists think about plagiarism     

Norman P. Lewis  Fan Yang  Yong Zhou 《亚洲交流杂志》2018,28(5):490-507

A comparison of 1,096 professional journalists in China and the United States on attitudes toward attribution and plagiarism reveals Chinese journalists were more likely to see attribution as a practice to be embraced regardless of career longevity and culture, suggesting journalistic norms are more important than a collectivist orientation. Attribution was more likely to be embraced by those who see principles as more important than expediency, affirming research that plagiarism is hardly a monolithic concept. Overall, journalists in the two nations did not vary significantly in their attitudes toward plagiarism, despite vast differences in culture and politics as well as evidence that in some other fields China is more accepting of reusing material without attribution. The data show that among journalists, attitudes toward plagiarism are shared across national boundaries, reinforcing related research showing that a journalism culture exists and is shared at least in part across national boundaries.  相似文献
