Needs assessment plays an important role in training and human performance improvement efforts, but the literature contains little research on this topic. This study extended previous research on the Performance Analysis for Training (PAT) model of needs assessment by examining its implementation to determine environmental and occupational health and safety training needs in a government agency. Using case study methodology and the lens of responsive evaluation, this study resulted in three perspectives about the actual needs assessment implementation. The three professionals' distinct areas of expertise (evaluation, health and safety, human resource development) informed the case in unique ways. The results can be used to improve the PAT model and also to give human resource development and performance improvement professionals insights about nuances of needs assessment practice. 相似文献

Careful analysis of an organization's needs is the first step in developing programs for improving performance that are relevant to the organization and to the individuals who use the programs. The purpose of this article is to examine the perspectives of needs assessment that are described in the performance technology and human resource development literature. The first section of the article focuses on the terms used to describe the process of analyzing needs. The perspectives embodied in the definitions and conceptualizations of the terms need, needs assessment, needs analysis, front end analysis, and performance analysis are examined. The second section of the article focuses on various models of needs assessment. It presents different views about where the needs assessment process starts, where it ends, and what results are produced. 相似文献

The literature endorses the critical role of needs assessment for effective INSET (In-service Education and Training). This view is not however, adequately supported by empirical research. There is also a dearth of literature on the process of needs assessment. The few studies that explore the process focus on the use of questionnaire and interview methods. The latter method was found to be inappropriate for the unqualified primary teachers participating in an INSET programme in Namibia (1995-97). This paper explores the process of needs assessment within this programme and presents an effective model of needs assessment which guided it. The model suggests the use of a multi-pronged qualitative approach to assessing needs. 相似文献

This study examines the relationship between the discriminable components of quality of learning experiences (that is, resources, content, learning flexibility, student‐faculty contact, and involvement) and students’ summative assessment of their college. The relative explanatory powers of three alternative combinatory models — the compensatory (linear‐additive), conjunctive, and disjunctive — are tested for. undergraduate students from hard and soft sciences. The conjunctive model provides the maximal predictability for hard sciences whereas all three models have the same explanatory powers in soft sciences. In addition, the five quality of learning experience components explain a higher portion of the variation of assessment in hard sciences than in soft sciences. Finally, the two dominant predictors of assessment in hard sciences are flexibility and involvement while the best determinants of assessment in soft sciences are flexibility and student‐faculty contact. The implications of these findings are discussed. 相似文献

This study examines the relationship between personality and two different academic performance (AP) assessment methods, namely exams and coursework. It aimed to examine whether the relationship between traits and AP was consistent across self-reported versus documented exam results, two different assessment techniques and across different faculties. There were 1,013 (622 female) university students from four British Universities in four faculties namely arts/humanities, social sciences, life/biological sciences and mathematical sciences. Participants completed a brief version of the Big Five inventory and a self-report measure of AP. Conscientiousness and Agreeableness were the strongest personality predictors of AP. Structural equation model showed that sex and personality effects on AP were invariant across different areas of study or degree types (humanities, social sciences, life sciences and hard sciences). Personality variables are stable, robust and predictable correlates and determinants of AP. Conscientiousness, Openness and Agreeableness were positive predictors as measured by good grades whilst Neuroticism and Extraversion were correlates of weaker performance. Implications of these results refer how teachers choose to examine their pupils and to what extent students choose courses because of their known examination procedures. 相似文献

ABSTRACTIn order to increase student commitment from the beginning of students’ university careers, the Technische Universität Darmstadt has introduced interdisciplinary study projects involving first-year students from the engineering, natural, social and history, economics and/or human sciences departments. The didactic concept includes sophisticated task design, individual responsibility and a differentiated support system. Using a self-determination theory framework, this study examined the effects of the projects based on survey findings from two projects with more than 1000 students. The results showed that the projects were successful in fulfilling students’ basic psychological needs and in promoting students’ academic engagement. Basic psychological needs were found to be significant predictors of academic engagement. These findings suggest that interdisciplinary study projects can potentially contribute to improving higher education as they fulfil students’ basic psychological needs for competence, relatedness and autonomy and enhance students’ academic engagement. 相似文献

狄尔泰作为欧洲大陆现象学运动的开创者之一,促使哲学重新关注人的精神,他试图建立以心理学和人类学为根基,以其他人文社会科学为枝干的综合的、有层次的精神科学体系。他的精神科学思想促使哲学家重新评估人文社会科学的价值,从精神科学的角度看,由于人文社会科学有着和自然科学完全不同的研究对象、研究方法和研究目的等;所以人文科学教育就有其独特价值,这些学科的所有教育活动都应是促使人了解社会和历史整体,是一种不同于感觉的体验活动,是通过培育人的主体性获得自由的活动。 相似文献

以胡适的“文学的历史进化论”为代表的文学进化史观是20世纪最有影响的文学史观念之一。而无论是主张白话是文言的进化、“中国文学史也就是一个文学上的语言变迁史”,还是主张文学的发展体现了心灵的进化、“文学的进步与人性的发展是同步的”,都不能准确而恰当地描述中国文学的历史。实际上,生物进化论被引入社会科学,用以概括人类社会的发展是不科学的,用它作为基础理论来清理中国文学的发展线索和运动规律同样也是不科学的。我们应该寻找发现中国文学发展规律的另外的途径和方法。 相似文献

科学史证明，实证主义的方法是进行科学研究必不可少的重要方法，但它在文学研究中往往遭冷落。然而从学术的目的在于求知这一点来说，实证是每一门学科，包括文学学科都必须遵循的方法。对于文学研究来说，实证主义的科学性还表现在，作为一种方法，它不是一味排斥理性思辩的意义。用实证主义的方法进行文学研究也有不足之处，即它在文学的价值方面显得捉襟见肘。 相似文献

假命题,真问题——谈人文与科学的分裂与统一性重建 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
在知识/教育领域内,存在着认识论和工具论两种不同的知识/教育传统。从认识论的知识观来看,人文与科学不可分裂,它们是人类认识(教育)活动中不可或缺的内容。但从工具论的知识观来看,人文与科学又分属于两个不同的知识/实践领域。人文与科学的分裂,是学术由分工走向专业化的产物,也是西方知识观发展的必然结果。但不应忽视的是,在分裂的同时,存在着整体性思想的传统,这一思想是人文与科学走向融合的基础。 相似文献

Although many appeals for reform include adopting more student-centred assessment, few studies have examined the postsecondary classroom. Using the 1993 and 1999 National Study of Postsecondary Faculty, the results of the current study revealed that faculty in the sciences were less likely to use student-centred assessment practices than faculty in non-sciences. Additionally, while faculty in the non-sciences showed a significant increase in their use of student-centred assessment between the two waves of data collection, no such increase was obtained for faculty in the sciences. Results are discussed in terms of public policy. 相似文献

Predicting faculty job satisfaction in university departments 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Dr. Yoram Neumann 《Research in higher education》1978,9(3):261-275
This study attempts to examine the relationships between several dimensions of organizational climate and faculty job satisfaction in university departments which offer Ph.D. degrees. The three dimensions of organizational climate examined are: power perception, the perceived organizational goals, and the assessment of rewards. The major findings of the study are:(1) Nonresearch perceived organizational goals are by and large weakly related to job satisfaction in both the physical and social sciences. (2) Power perception is a strong determinant of job satisfaction in the social sciences and considerably less dominant in the physical sciences. (3) The assessment of rewards is the strongest predictor of faculty job satisfaction in both the physical and social sciences. The major conclusion of the study is that the organizational climate is one of the keys to understanding faculty job satisfaction. The policy implications of these findings are discussed. 相似文献

Recent work in the cognitive sciences provides new neurological/biological and evolutionary bases for understanding the construction of knowledge (in the form of sets of ideas containing functionally useful inferences) and the capacity for imagination (as the ability to run inferences and generate ideas from information) in the human mind. In recent years, a growing number of scholars are making use of cognitive science to understand and explain religious beliefs and behaviors in terms of these evolved cognitive capacities and structures of mind. Based on a literature review of cognitive studies of religion, this article examines relevant themes from cognitive science studies of religion toward drawing pedagogical lessons for religious education. 相似文献
