ABSTRACTAs educational interventions that integrate death issues in the school curriculum are rarely designed, implemented and evaluated, our action research (AR) project aimed at investigating the complexities of integrating the concepts of loss and grief in the primary school curriculum of Cyprus. The purpose of this paper is to identify and analyze convergences and divergences between AR and lesson study (LS), as they emerged in our project. We particularly focus on the ways that AR served to legitimate ethically and politically those aspects of the project that constituted the experimentation of lesson plans on loss and grief. The AR and LS elements of our project functioned differently and served different purposes, and we speculate that this is not irrelevant to the controversial aspects of the lesson plans’ topic, namely loss and grief. The paper argues that it may be strategically important, for ethical and political reasons, to both demarcate and associate AR and LS, navigating between them, particularly if a controversial issue is involved. 相似文献

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the complexities and issues involved in the evaluation of distance education and virtual schooling. In order to provide an anchor to the issues involved in evaluating online projects we first present the evaluation design of a virtual high school project. Then, the emphasis of the paper is on the goals of the evaluation, stakeholder analysis, evaluator role, data collection, and data analysis. Finally, we discuss the need for evaluation of distance education and the ethical responsibility of the evaluators involved.De la complexité de l'évaluation de l'éducation à distance et de la scolarité virtuelle. Le but de cet article est de discuter des complexités et des problèmes posés par l'évaluation de l'éducation à distance et de la scolarité virtuelle de façon à fournir un ancrage aux problèmes impliqués dans l'évaluation de projets en lignes, nous présentons d'abord un schéma d'évaluation d'un projet d'école secondaire virtuelle. Ainsi l'article met l'accent sur les objectifs de l'évaluation, l'analyse du dépositaire d'enjeux, le rôle de l'évaluation, la collecte des données et leur analyse. Finalement, nous discutons du besoin de l'évaluation de l'éducation à distance et de la responsabilité éthique des évaluations impliquées.Komplexitäten in der Auswertung von Distance Education und virtueller Schulung. Der Zweck dieses Beitrags ist, die mit der Auswertung von Distance Education und virtueller Schulung verbundenen Komplexitäten und Fragen zu erörtern. Als Ausgangspukt zu den Fragen, die mit der Bewertung von Online-Projekten verbunden sind, zeigen wir zuerst den Auswertungsentwurf für ein virtuelles High-School-Projekt. Dann liegt der Schwerpunkt des Papiers auf den Zielen der Auswertung, Interessengruppenanalyse, Auswerterrolle, Datenerfassung und Datenanalyse. Zuletzt erörtern wir den Bedarf nach Auswertung von Distance Education und die ethische Verantwortung der eingebundenen Auswerter. 相似文献

This paper discusses teacher resistance to recognizing some perspectives of difficult histories. The paper focuses on the following question: How does affect contribute not only to the formation of teacher resistance, but also to its disruption in ways that enable the productive reclaiming of teachers’ engagement with traumatic histories? To address this question, the paper first revisits the notion of difficult knowledge, highlighting its affective dimensions and its relevance to teacher resistance. Then, it argues that the role of affect in resistance demands a different way of conceptualizing ‘teacher resistance’ to acknowledge how affect is entangled with both the micro- and macro-political dimensions of resistance. In the light of this reconceptualized notion of teacher resistance, the paper theorizes the notion of ‘affective disruption’ by using Judith Butler's social theory. Finally, the notion of ‘pedagogy of discomfort’ is revisited to demonstrate the new openings created by a reconceptualized notion of teacher resistance in the context of teacher professional learning. 相似文献

Discursive practices, genealogies, and emotional rules: A poststructuralist view on emotion and identity in teaching 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
This paper invokes a poststructuralist lens—and, in particular, Foucauldian ideas—in conceptualizing teacher emotions as discursive practices. It is also argued that within this theoretical framework, teacher identity is theorized as constantly becoming in a context embedded in power relations, ideology, and culture. In terms of the methodology used when studying teacher identity and emotion through this lens, it is shown that long-term ethnographic investigations offer important advantages. This is shown through an ethnographic study of the emotions of teaching with one teacher over three years (1997–1999) and a semester long follow-up study with the same teacher four years later (spring 2003). The contribution of this study in what is presently known about teacher emotions in educational settings consists in the following three ideas: first, that emotional rules in teaching are historically contingent; second, that a teacher plays a part in her own emotional control; and third, that a teacher's identity is constituted in relation to the emotional rules in the context in which she/he teaches. The contribution of a poststructuralist perspective in research on teacher emotion is discussed and analyzed. 相似文献

A surprising result of the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) is that computer use was negatively associated with high student achievement in some countries. More specifically, the students from all three countries who indicated that they use computers in the classroom most frequently were those with the lowest achievement on the TIMSS in 1995. For the purpose of this study, a similar comparison was made for 15-year-old U.S.A. students, based on the data from the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA). The results of this study show that it is not computer use itself that has a positive or negative effect on the science achievement of students, but the way in which computers are used. For example, after controlling for the student's socioeconomic status in the United States of America, the results indicated that the students who used computers frequently at home, including for the purpose of writing papers, tended to have higher science achievement. However, the results of this study also show that science achievement was negatively related to the use of certain types of educational software. This indicates a result similar to that found in the TIMSS data, which might reflect the fact that teachers assign the use of the computer and of educational software to the lower achieving students more frequently, so that these students can obtain more personal and direct feedback through educational software. 相似文献

The aim of the research study reported in this article was to investigate how adult learners talk about their emotions in the context of a year‐long online course, the first online course these adults take, as part of a distance education program. The theoretical and methodological approach focused on formulating an account of how emotion discourses are used by learners, what role they play in online learning, and how they change over a one‐year period (if they do so). The findings of this study provide three insights: (1) they show how adult learners (who also happen to be novice online learners) respond emotionally and talk about their emotions in relation to online learning; (2) they call attention to the ways in which emotion talk changes from the beginning of the course to the end, always in response to specific demands and dimensions of online learning; and (3) they reveal the differential emotional responses between men and women in relation to their social and gender roles and responsibilities. Empirical and policy implications of this study are discussed at the end. 相似文献

AN EMPIRICAL INVESTIGATION OF DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MATHEMATICS SPECIALISTS AND NON-SPECIALISTS AT THE HIGH-SCHOOL LEVEL in
Cyprus – The data obtained from high-school seniors for the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) for
the country of Cyprus appear to be contradictory. Although Cypriot students did not perform well in mathematics in elementary
school, middle school, and in the non-advanced sectors of high school, students in advanced mathematics courses in high school
managed to perform exceptionally well. In seeking to account for this apparent disparity, the present study examines the differences
between mathematics specialists and non-specialists at the high-school level and discusses the implications that these have
for teaching practice. It shows how students educated in an environment that might not be optimal for producing high-achieving
students in mathematics and science in elementary and middle school (according to the TIMSS) might nonetheless manage to excel
in these fields at the end of their schooling. In conclusion, the authors address the implications of their study for similar
educational systems in other developing countries. 相似文献
