A research framework for creative and imitative reasoning 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Johan Lithner 《Educational Studies in Mathematics》2008,67(3):255-276
This conceptual research framework addresses the problem of rote learning by characterising key aspects of the dominating
imitative reasoning and the lack of creative mathematical reasoning found in empirical data. By relating reasoning to thinking
processes, student competencies, and the learning milieu it explains origins and consequences of different reasoning types.

Validating NSSE Against Student Outcomes: Are They Related? 总被引：3，自引：1，他引：3
While there exist many examples of institutional use of the results of the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE), there
is a relative paucity of research explicitly linking student outcomes to responses on the survey. A major Doctoral-Extensive
institution in the Southeast recently conducted a large-scale implementation of the National Survey of Student Engagement
(NSSE). We have linked multiple years of NSSE responses to several student outcomes: freshman retention, GPA, pursuit of graduate
education, and employment outcome upon commencement/degree conferral. Our research finds minimal explanatory power in the
NSSE benchmarks for these outcomes. A statistically derived model from the individual NSSE items shows greater promise, although
there are difficulties in replicating the model for previous student cohorts.

Twenty-two faculty and graduate students were interviewed in one college of education in order to understand what the college
and its constituents view as the skills, habits of mind, and dispositions needed to obtain a Ph.D. in Education. Analysis
of the data was conducted using professional socialization as a theoretical framework, allowing for an understanding of the
different perspectives of this topic as viewed through a developmental lens. Implications for theory and practice are included.

In this Forum, we construct a history of the National Association for Research in Science Education (NARST) through the analysis of documents and through the personal perspectives of individuals. The history of NARST is inseparable
from the biography of the individuals through whose lives it was produced and reproduced. The history of NARST is a living
history that both shapes and was shaped by the biographies of its members.

A great challenge in education research involves the difficulty of differentiating between studies that apply commonly understood
theoretical perspectives and recognizing studies that merely rename old theoretical frameworks. This conflict between intellectual
innovation and intellectual retrofitting emerges as central to Basu, Calabrese-Barton, Clairmont, and Lock’s exploration of
the relationship between critical agency and student identity development in science.

Integrating technology into K-12 teaching and learning: current knowledge gaps and recommendations for future research 总被引：7，自引：2，他引：5
Khe Foon Hew Thomas Brush 《Educational technology research and development : ETR & D》2007,55(3):223-252
Although research studies in education show that use of technology can help student learning, its use is generally affected
by certain barriers. In this paper, we first identify the general barriers typically faced by K-12 schools, both in the United
States as well as other countries, when integrating technology into the curriculum for instructional purposes, namely: (a)
resources, (b) institution, (c) subject culture, (d) attitudes and beliefs, (e) knowledge and skills, and (f) assessment.
We then describe the strategies to overcome such barriers: (a) having a shared vision and technology integration plan, (b)
overcoming the scarcity of resources, (c) changing attitudes and beliefs, (d) conducting professional development, and (e)
reconsidering assessments. Finally, we identify several current knowledge gaps pertaining to the barriers and strategies of
technology integration, and offer pertinent recommendations for future research.

Educational technology on a turning point: curriculum implementation in Flanders and challenges for schools 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Ruben Vanderlinde Johan van Braak Ruben Hermans 《Educational technology research and development : ETR & D》2009,57(4):573-584
In this essay, we state that establishing technology curricula by national governments causes a shift in the policy actions
of educational technology support: from a technical rationale with a main focus on funding and resources to a pedagogical
rationale with a main focus on student competencies. We illustrate our point of view by describing the formal educational
technology curriculum recently administered by the government in Flanders. This curriculum is written in terms of attainment
targets and has clear implications on the nature of educational technology which is no longer dependent on teachers’ individual
efforts or willingness, but is becoming compulsory at the school level. Furthermore, we present two levers that facilitate
the integration process of educational technology in general and the realization of technology curricula in particular. Technology
coordinators should act more as curriculum managers and change agents, and schools should jointly establish a technology policy
plan.

Faculty have long incorporated students into interdisciplinary research projects to meet increasingly common demands for collaborative
research by federal funding agencies. Despite the critical role of experiential learning in building student research skills
and capacity, few have explored social interaction mechanisms used to facilitate student experiential learning in an interdisciplinary
research team. Drawing upon the New Rural Economy project as a case study, interviews with 13 students from eight Canadian
universities were conducted to explore these social interaction mechanisms. While findings revealed an array of social interaction
mechanisms used to develop student learning networks, the quality of these mechanisms were mixed; thereby influencing the
utilization of these networks for guidance and feedback. As faculty organize social interaction mechanisms, they should consider
factors such as previous experience, student and faculty relationships, finances, language, gender, ethnicity, and other issues,
that will have an impact on student engagement with experiential learning.

The purpose of this paper is to present data demonstrating the potential efficacy of Personal Learning Plans (PLPs) as an
instructional tool in early childhood teacher preparation. One hundred and thirty-nine undergraduate students enrolled in
an introductory course offered within a unified early childhood education program over a period of four years completed preliminary
and final surveys including items on student background, efficacy of course methods, and student learning style and outcomes.
Data related to the PLP and other, more didactic, methods used in the target course are presented. A general conclusion that
can be drawn from these data is that students believed the PLP method to be no less effective than other methods relative
to some indicators and significantly more effective than other methods relative to other indicators. Results are discussed
in terms of self-efficacy theory.

Coursework masters degrees in Australia have experienced rapid, decentralised growth since deregulation at the end of the
1980s. The result is an extraordinarily high level of diversity and some confusion as to standards, strategic positioning,
purpose and educational approaches. Throughout this period of growth, a sense that large-scale (often distance-education based)
collaboration between universities and with industry would be beneficial has not always led to successful outcomes. Using
a new collaborative, industry-funded postgraduate coursework program as a case study, this paper describes the issues that
decision-makers need to address and evaluates the challenges and benefits of the coursework masters in higher education. The
outcomes of industry surveys, student interviews and action research suggest that postgraduate coursework can facilitate technology
transfer and aid capacity building, through mechanisms similar to ‘mode 2’ research. With some additional systems to ensure
sustainability and standards, this could position coursework masters to be uniquely valuable nationally.

Since many teachers and students recognize other kinds of knowledge (faith) based on other ways of knowing, consideration
of these realities is appropriate for the science education community. Understanding the multitude of ways that clergy view
relationships between science and faith (i.e. alternative ways of knowing) would assist in understanding various ways that
people address complex issues arising from ideas about science and faith. We administered a questionnaire composed of multiple-choice
and short answer items to 63 United Methodist ministers. Findings included (1) that formal, organized faith contexts (e.g.
church services) serve as informal science education opportunities, (2) participants demonstrated considerable diversity regarding
the types of relationships developed between science and faith, and (3) participants recognized a need exists for better understandings
of science and its relationship to faith for them, their colleagues, and their congregations.

Video has assumed an increasingly prominent role in teacher education, particularly in the form of the viewing of videotaped
class lessons by preservice teachers. Yet there is little research that confirms whether preservice teachers attend to the
aspects of the video(s) that teacher educators anticipate or desire. This article explores this issue and reports on the impact
of video viewing as a means to improve teachers’ ability to be observers of classroom practice. We utilized a pre- and post-test
design to measure the quantity and type of classroom events that preservice mathematics teachers noticed before and after
a teaching methods course where improving observation skills was an explicit goal. The results of the pre-assessment suggest
that preservice teachers generally do not enter teaching methods courses with well-developed observation skills. The post-assessment
indicates that the course led to significant increases in preservice teachers’ observation skills, particularly in teachers’
ability to notice features of the classroom environment, mathematical content of a lesson, and teacher and student communication
during a lesson.

In ubiquitous writings, a Brooklyn College professor has repeatedly drawn attention to the excesses of radical ideologues
in higher education. He took his own provost to task for indoctrinating students in a politically myopic policy, inaptly named:
“global citizenship.” He was most articulate of those who sought redress for the witch hunt involving Duke lacrosse players.
His purview is broad, and he makes the best of enemies. It’s about time that Academic Questions got around to chatting with K. C. Johnson.

This paper characterizes and evaluates the student allocation in the Portuguese public higher education system. It describes
the supply and demand sides of the system by looking at the numerus clausus across areas of study and institutions, institutions’ degree of diversity, and performance and adjustment indicators based
on students’ revealed preferences. Performance indicators quantify the adequacy between demand and supply, across institutions
and fields of study, and gauge the performance of public higher education institutions in the competition for candidates.
Adjustment indicators allow us to predict the potential impact of changes in higher education regulations on student allocation
and its stability. According to these indicators, such changes could result in an expansion for some institutions and fields
of study, whereas other institutions might face a reduction.

An international comparison using a diagnostic testing model: Turkish students’ profile of mathematical skills on TIMSS-R 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
This study illustrates how a diagnostic testing model can be used to make detailed comparisons between student populations
participating in international assessments. The performance of Turkish students on the TIMSS-R mathematics test was reanalyzed
with a diagnostic testing model called the Rule Space Model. First, mathematical and cognitive skills (‘attributes’) measured
by the test were determined. One hundred sixty-two items were coded in terms of their attribute involvement, creating an incidence
matrix—the Q-matrix. Using the Q-matrix and the student response data, each student’s attribute mastery profile was determined.
Mean attribute mastery levels of Turkish students were computed and compared to those of their American peers. It was shown
that Turkish students were weak in algebra and probability/statistics. They also demonstrated poor profiles in skills such
as applying rules in algebra, approximation/estimation, solving open-ended problems, recognizing patterns and relationships,
and quantitative reading.

This article examines Mary Budd Rowe’s groundbreaking and far-reaching contributions to science education. Rowe is best known
for her research on wait-time: the idea that teachers can improve the quality and length of classroom discussions by waiting
at least 3 s before and after student responses. Her wait-time research grew from and helped inform her staunch advocacy of
science education as inquiry; Rowe saw wonder and excitement as central to the teaching and learning of science. She spent
much of her professional life designing professional development experiences and innovative curriculum materials to help teachers,
particularly elementary school teachers, enact inquiry in their classrooms.
