A Safe,Helpful, and Ubiquitous Place That Requires Further Study     

Bradley Wade Bishop 《Public Library Quarterly》2016,35(4):318-324

In this article, Bradley Wade Bishop sets forth the unspoken premise that public libraries that offer desired services to their constituents are going to succeed. This article has many specific examples of emergency and continuing services that small public libraries provide. It also suggests the need for extensive research on successful libraries which illustrate all sorts of rules about how to meet the future successfully.  相似文献   

Perceptual training effects on anticipation of direct and deceptive 7-m throws in handball     

Khaled E. Alsharji  Michael G. Wade 《Journal of sports sciences》2016,34(2):155-162

We examined the effectiveness of perceptual training on the performance of handball goalkeepers when anticipating the direction of both direct and deceptive 7-m throws. Skilled goalkeepers were assigned equally to three matched-ability groups based on their pre-test performance: a perceptual training group (n = 14) received video-based perceptual training, a placebo training group (n = 14) received video-based regular training and a control group received no training. Participants in the perceptual training group significantly improved their performance compared to both placebo and control groups; however, anticipation of deceptive throws improved less than for direct throws. The results confirm that although anticipating deception in handball is a challenging task for goalkeepers, task-specific perceptual training can minimise its effect and improve performance.  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

Generating Random Parallel Test Forms Using CTT in a Computer-Based Environment     

Wade M. Gibson  John A. Weiner 《Journal of Educational Measurement》1998,35(4):297-310

This paper describes a procedure for automated test forms assembly based on Classical Test Theory (CTT). The procedure uses stratified random content sampling and test form pre-equating to ensure both content and psychometric equivalence in generating virtually unlimited parallel forms. The procedure extends the usefulness of CTT in automated test form construction, yielding classical item statistics based on representative sample distributions and pre-equated test forms with known psychometric characteristics. A rationale for the procedure is presented followed by an example application and discussion of psychometric considerations related to its use.  相似文献   

The development of reading interest and its relation to reading ability     

John R. Kirby  Angela Ball  B. Kelly Geier  Rauno Parrila  Lesly Wade‐Woolley 《Journal of Research in Reading》2011,34(3):263-280

The development of interest in reading and its relationship to reading ability was examined longitudinally in 117 children in Grades 1–3. Interest in reading was measured by eight items from the Elementary Reading Attitude Survey. Less able readers had lower interest in reading, but their development was parallel to that of more able readers. Interest in reading in Grade 1 was weakly correlated with Grade 3 reading ability, but correlations were lower for interest measured in Grades 2 and 3. Hierarchical regression analyses indicated weak and inconsistent effects of reading interest on reading ability after controlling general cognitive ability, SES, phonological awareness and naming speed. It is concluded that interest in reading has only a weak relationship to reading ability in the early elementary years, and that much of that relationship overlaps with the effects of other more powerful predictors.  相似文献   

A process for the critical analysis of instructional theory     

Jay A. Bostwick  Isaac Wade Calvert  Jenifer Francis  Melissa Hawkley  Curtis R. Henrie  Frederick R. Hyatt  Janeel Juncker  Andrew S. Gibbons 《Educational technology research and development : ETR & D》2014,62(5):571-582

Some have argued for a common language in the field of instructional design in an effort to reduce misunderstandings and simplify a multitude of synonymous terms and concepts. Others feel that this goal is undesirable in that it precludes development and flexibility. In this article we propose an ontology-building process as a way for readers to compare and analyze terms and concepts across theories. This process entails the development of categories that emerge from the literature, and the comparison of theories across categories. Such a process can reveal broader concepts that exist beyond specific theoretical terminology, differences in meanings behind common terms used by theorists, a greater understanding of the theorists’ intent, and discontinuities and gaps within the theoretical literature.  相似文献
