Trajectories of adjustment were examined in a sample of street-involved youth across a 1-year period. Participants (N = 113; M_age = 14.18 years; 80.5% male, 91% non-White) were recruited in three Brazilian cities. Interviews conducted at three time points included six measures of physical and psychological adjustment. Unconditional growth models revealed linear declines over time (i.e., improved adjustment) on three indicators: health symptoms, sexual risk behaviors, and negative affect. There were no linear changes in drug use, positive affect, or life satisfaction. Conditional growth models revealed few significant effects for age or gender, but ratings of stressful life events moderated longitudinal changes in health symptoms, drug use, and negative affect. Implications for practice, policy, and theory are discussed.  相似文献   

Related Multiscreening as a Strategy to Retain Audiences and Increase Persuasion During a Commercial Break     

Claire M. Segijn  Theo Araujo  Hilde A. M. Voorveld  Edith G. Smit 《广播与电子媒介杂志》2020,64(1):41-61

The aim of the study was to deepen our understanding of how related multiscreening affects audience memory and persuasion. A survey was administered after a live television show. The results showed that the higher the perceived relatedness of the multi-screen activity, the more persuasive the message. This effect was mediated by subsequent attention to television content, program involvement, and attention to the commercial break. The model was replicated for three different multiscreen activities: social media use, chatting, and information search. Furthermore, it was found that related multiscreening increased the likelihood of respondents staying tuned to the television after the show.  相似文献   

Interpersonal Teacher Behaviour and Student Outcomes     

Perry den Brok  Mieke Brekelmans  Theo Wubbels 《School Effectiveness & School Improvement》2013,24(3-4):407-442

In this study, the effectiveness of secondary education teachers' interpersonal behaviour is investigated by analysing data from 2 samples: a study on 45 Physics teachers and their 3rd-year classes and a study on 32 English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers and their 3rd-year classes. Teacher interpersonal behaviour was studied by means of students' perceptions of this behaviour, collected with the Questionnaire on Teacher Interaction (QTI). These perceptions include 2 important dimensions: Influence and Proximity. Results of multilevel analyses with various covariates indicated that Influence and Proximity were positively related to both cognitive and affective outcomes. Interpersonal behaviour explained up to more than half of the variance in student outcomes at the teacher-class level. The outcomes suggest that interpersonal behaviour as perceived by students may be an important variable for educational effectiveness researchers.  相似文献   

Teacher learning in the context of educational innovation: Learning activities and learning outcomes of experienced teachers     

Inge Bakkenes  Jan D. Vermunt  Theo Wubbels 《Learning and Instruction》2010,20(6):533-548

This longitudinal study was aimed at increasing our understanding of how teachers learn. It was conducted within a national innovation programme in secondary education. During one year 94 teachers reported six learning experiences using digital logs. The learning experiences were content-analysed in terms of learning activities and learning outcomes. The former comprised six main categories, namely experimenting, considering own practice, getting ideas from others, experiencing friction, struggling not to revert to old ways, and avoiding learning—the first two categories being reported most frequently. Reported learning outcomes referred to changes in knowledge and beliefs, emotions, practices, and intentions for practice, with changes in knowledge and beliefs being reported most frequently and changes in teaching practices being reported rarely. Learning activities were associated significantly with all measures of learning outcomes. Type of learning environment was significantly associated with learning activities and learning outcomes. Results are discussed with respect to ways of fostering teacher learning.  相似文献   

A five-dimensional framework for authentic assessment   总被引：1，自引：2，他引：1  

Judith T. M. Gulikers  Theo J. Bastiaens  Paul A. Kirschner 《Educational technology research and development : ETR & D》2004,52(3):67-86

Authenticity is an important element of new modes of assessment. The problem is that what authentic assessment really is, is unspecified. In this article, we first review the literature on authenticity of assessments, along with a five-dimensional framework for designing authentic assessments with professional practice as the starting point. Then, we present the results of a qualitative study to determine if the framework is complete, and what the relative importance of the five dimensions is in the perceptions of students and teachers of a vocational college for nursing. We discuss implications for the framework, along with important issues that need to be considered when designing authentic assessments.  相似文献   

Hearing Matters More Than Seeing: A Cross-Modality Study of Statistical Learning and Reading Ability     

Zhenghan Qi  Yoel Sanchez Araujo  Wendy C. Georgan  John D. E. Gabrieli  Joanne Arciuli 《Scientific Studies of Reading》2019,23(1):101-115

ABSTRACT

There is growing interest in the link between implicit statistical learning (SL) and reading ability. Although learning to read involves both auditory and visual modalities, it is not known whether reading skills might be more strongly associated with auditory SL or visual SL. Here we assessed SL across both modalities in 36 typically developing children and 36 healthy adults using the classic triplet-learning paradigm. Auditory SL was significantly associated with sentence reading fluency (Woodcock Johnson III Test of Achievement) in the combined sample of children and adults after controlling for age and nonverbal intelligence. In further analysis of the child data, auditory SL was significantly associated with nonword reading accuracy (Woodcock Reading Mastery Test), a relationship which appeared to be mediated by phonological processing abilities (Comprehensive Test of Phonological Processing). These findings suggest that auditory SL might contribute more strongly to certain aspects of reading development compared to visual SL.  相似文献   

Teacher dilemmas in challenging students in higher education     

Karin Scager  Sanne F. Akkerman  Albert Pilot  Theo Wubbels 《Teaching in Higher Education》2017,22(3):318-335

Students need to be challenged to stimulate their learning. Applying challenge in practice however is not straightforward. Challenging students may conflict with other teacher responsibilities, creating potential dilemmas for teachers. This study discloses dilemmas teachers encounter when challenging students as well as the considerations accompanying their actual choices for action when coping with these dilemmas. Based on interviews with teachers, first, a dilemma analysis instrument was developed. Seven main categories of dilemmas were found. One of the main dilemmas encompassed maximizing challenge versus keeping all students on board. University students differ in their ability, confronting teachers with the feeling that choosing to serve one group could be detrimental to the learning of others. The diversity of choices and considerations brought forward by the teachers indicates that it matters who the teacher is, and what he or she stands for and is able to do.  相似文献   

Shakespeare for All? Some Reflections on the Globe Theatre’s Playing Shakespeare with Deutsche Bank Project     

John Yandell  Jane Coles  Theo Bryer 《Changing English: An International Journal of English Teaching》2020,27(2):208-228

ABSTRACT

Every year since 2007, the Globe Theatre has run the Playing Shakespeare project, largely funded by Deutsche Bank. This has three main components: school-based workshops, CPD sessions for teachers and free performances for school students. From 2014 to 2016, we were commissioned to evaluate this project. In what follows, we reflect on the nature of this project and its relation to the versions of Shakespeare that figure so prominently in the terrain of contemporary schooling in England.  相似文献   

A Follow-up Study of Reading Attainment in a Sample of Eleven-year Old Disadvantaged Children     

Theo Cox 《Educational studies》1979,5(1):53-60

Fifty children from culturally and materially disadvantaged home backgrounds and a control group of children from more advantaged backgrounds who had originally been studied at the infant school stage were followed up at the end of their junior school careers. On the three reading tests administered in the follow‐up study the ‘Deprived Group’ children scored significantly lower than their controls and a substantial proportion of them could be regarded as seriously retarded in reading. An analysis of the raw gains made by the children in two reading tests administered at age 7+ and 11+ indicated that the achievement gap in reading between the Control and Deprived Groups, in favour of the former, had widened appreciably during the intervening period. It is argued that results reflect mainly the influence of home background rather than school factors upon the children's reading progress and achievement.  相似文献   

The use of protocol materials as an evaluation instrument     

Nico Verloop  Theo Hendriks 《欧洲师范教育杂志》1979,2(4):187-199

In this article a recent development in the field of teacher education in the U.S.A. is discussed and a proposal is made for the development of an evaluation‐instrument which is based on the insights gained from this development. It concerns the “Protocol Materials Program,” a comprehensive project in which materials are developed to facilitate the integration of theory and practice in teacher education. Student teachers are confronted with a series of video‐episodes. These episodes are arranged in such a way as to form an illustration of relevant theoretical concepts the student teacher has mastered. An example of protocol materials is given, the relevance of this project for teacher education is discussed and a review is given of the research on the effects of these materials up to now. The authors make a plea for the development of student evaluation instruments, based on the principles of the protocol movement: if the student teacher, after having studied a piece of educational theory, is confronted with a number of specially arranged classroom situations on video, he can be asked to relate these situations to the theory he has studied. This procedure can also help the teacher educator to diagnose what his theoretical instruction really “means” to the student teachers, i.e. whether their interpretative abilities are really increased by it.  相似文献
