Appreciative coaching for student academic and professional development     

Rose Helens-Hart 《Communication Teacher》2018,32(4):220-224

Negative self-talk and appraisals of self-efficacy can damage students’ abilities to do well in college and lead to self-fulfilling prophesies where students fail to meet their academic and professional potentials. This multi-class activity uses appreciative coaching to help students utilize a positive mindset and achieve academic and professional goals. This coaching model, based on the tenets of appreciative inquiry, begins with a topic selection and then progresses through four stages: discover, dream, design, and destiny. The coaching process can assist instructors and students in focusing on the positive aspects of student performance, increase self-confidence, motivation to do well in courses, and proactive career planning, and create a positive learning environment.

Courses: Business Communication, Freshman Seminar, Professional Development, Senior Capstone

Objectives: The objectives of this activity are for students to (1) practice positive reframing, (2) appraise and identify their strengths and skills, (3) select goals, (4) create action plans to reach goals, and (5) be empowered and take responsibility for their academic and professional progress.  相似文献   

A Meta-Analysis of Single-Case Research on Mathematics Word Problem-Solving Interventions for English Learners with Learning Disabilities and Mathematics Difficulties     

Qingli Lei  Rose A. Mason  Yan Ping Xin  John L. Davis  Marie David  Catharine Lory 《Learning disabilities research & practice》2020,35(4):201-217

This single-case meta-analysis is the first to provide a quantitative synthesis of the published literature on mathematics word problem-solving intervention studies for English learners with learning disabilities and mathematics difficulties. A total of ten single-subject studies were included for analysis. The current study investigated the magnitude of the effect of mathematics interventions targeting the improvement of students’ mathematics word problem-solving performance, and analyzed variables that moderated this effect. Results indicate a moderate overall effect size of 0.81 (95% CI [0.71, 0.90]) on word problem-solving performance for English learners with learning disabilities and mathematics difficulties. Moderator variables such as the implementer of the interventions, instructional focus, and word problem-solving content significantly moderated the mathematics intervention effects.  相似文献

The relationship between school belonging,sibling aggression and bullying involvement: implications for students with and without disabilities     

Chad A. Rose  Cynthia G. Simpson  Stephanie K. Ellis 《教育心理学》2016,36(8):1462-1486

Bullying is grounded in the interactions between an individual and complex social–ecological systems. Therefore, bullying involvement is not just confined to the classroom or school. Recent research suggests that sibling aggression may be a predictor for peer-level aggression. These findings may be more relevant for students with disabilities because studies suggest that students with disabilities are disproportionately involved in the bullying dynamic. Therefore, this study explored the intersection between sibling aggression and school belonging on bullying, victimisation and fighting for 14,508 students, including 1183 students with disabilities and 13,325 students without disabilities in grades 6 through 12. As hypothesised, students with disabilities reported higher levels of victimisation, bullying and fighting. Additionally, high levels of school belonging partially buffered fighting and bullying behaviours for students with and without disabilities. These findings demonstrate the importance of establishing an inclusive and safe environment for school-aged youth.  相似文献

Issues Arising from the Introduction of Tertiary Education Enterprise Activities — Examples from TAFE     

Pauline Mageean 《高等教育研究与发展》1990,9(2):123-132

This paper has been written for those concerned with tertiary education enterprises whether as developers of saleable intellectual property (such as inventions, ideas, resources, concepts), providers of a course or other service, as negotiators of contracts, marketers of educational services or as policy developers concerned with the overall organisation of tertiary education and the place and purposes of enterprise activities within this. It assumes that enterprise activities are now and will be in the future, an important feature of tertiary education in Australia. It discusses a number of potential and existing conflicts and tensions of relevance to those involved in these activities and provides examples of how certain TAFE institutions have responded to these.  相似文献   

Sharing teacher knowledge at scale: teacher inquiry,learning design and the representation of teachers’ practice     

Martin Oliver  Katerina Avramides  Wilma Clark  Jade Hunter  Rose Luckin  Cecilie Hansen 《Teacher Development》2018,22(4):587-606

Sharing teachers’ professional knowledge remains challenging. Teachers’ development often remains ad hoc or local, and attempts to scale this up have proved problematic. To address this, research in areas such as ‘learning design’ has explored the use of formal representations of practice. This proposes that educational practice can be improved by documenting, sharing and building on what teachers already do. Whilst this has led to some successes, it has not resulted in the widespread transformation of practice. This paper reviews the literature about sharing teacher knowledge. The challenges of scaling up development are then considered in relation to two theories that help explain the challenges: Communities of Practice and Sociomateriality. This analysis is illustrated through case studies in Norway and the UK. These show that teachers already create and share artefacts that represent their pedagogic knowledge. However, they found formal representations, such as learning designs, difficult to work with. The paper concludes that scaling up teacher development using abstract formalisms is unlikely to succeed. Instead, teachers value stories and the materials they already create in their day-to-day practice. It is this intermediate level of representation, between direct experience and formal abstraction, that offers the most promise for sharing practice.  相似文献   

Group time treasures: Implications for learning     

Pauline Davey Zeece  Marcia Corr 《Early Childhood Education Journal》1989,17(1):32-34

Meaningful group times have been a hallmark of quality early childhood programs for many years. Stimulating group experiences present a wealth of opportunities for everyone involved. Adults are better able to monitor children's skills and enjoy their ongoing growth. Group activities also may set the stage for an abundance of adventures as young children grow and learn in all areas of their development (Bredekamp, 1986).Pauline Davey Zeece and Marcia Corr are at the Department of Human Development and the Family, University of Nebraska-Lincoln in Lincoln, Nebraska.  相似文献   

From the Washington to the Post-Washington Consensus: The influence of international agendas on education policy and practice in Malawi     

Pauline Rose 《Globalisation, Societies & Education》2003,1(1):67-86

Education is receiving ever-increasing priority in the post-Washington consensus era, which views education as both a means to and end of development. However, justification for the attention given to education continues to be centrally focused on the notion of human capital. By consequence, marketisation and privatisation of education are becoming increasingly significant. With the World Bank and WTO joining forces to create a vision for a 'global education industry', emphasis is placed on free trade in educational goods and services. The paper examines critically the implications of this international education agenda for developing countries, focusing on the experience of Malawi.  相似文献
