The role of part-time employment among young people with a non-university education in Spain     

Helena Corrales-Herrero  Beatriz Rodríguez-Prado 《Journal of Education & Work》2016,29(2):167-198

For some people, a part-time job is merely an intermediate state that serves as a stepping stone to further employment and makes labour market integration easier. Yet, part-time work also appears in highly unstable careers. The present research aims to determine the role of part-time employment for young people with non-university studies. Using the Survey on Transition from Education/Training and Labour Market Integration (ETEFIL-2005), we build the monthly sequence of labour states for young people from when they finish their non-university studies until the time of the survey. The analysis allows us to conclude that part-time work is fairly atypical in the early stages of a career but that those who have part-time jobs spend quite a long time in them. In addition, we identify several patterns in the use of part-time work, the ‘integrative’ pattern proving to be the most prevalent. Factors such as education and early preferences are seen to have a major impact on career paths.  相似文献   

The endogenous relationship between innovation and diversification, and the impact of technological resources on the form of diversification     

Antonio Rodríguez-Duarte  Beatriz Minguela-Rata 《Research Policy》2007,36(5):652-664

This research has endeavoured to build on earlier research on the relationship between a firm's technological resources and the direction of its diversification, by trying to confirm the endogeneity of this relationship and by addressing the influence of innovation on the choice of the mode of diversification. Based on a sample of Spanish firms, our results suggest that innovation drives diversification, but not the reverse. The second important finding of this research is the empirical confirmation that knowledge assets are not related to the diversification mode.  相似文献

Objectively measured sedentary time and academic achievement in schoolchildren     

Luís Lopes  Rute Santos  Jorge Mota  Beatriz Pereira  Vítor Lopes 《Journal of sports sciences》2017,35(5):463-469

This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between objectively measured total sedentary time and academic achievement (AA) in Portuguese children. The sample comprised of 213 children (51.6% girls) aged 9.46 ± 0.43 years, from the north of Portugal. Sedentary time was measured with accelerometry, and AA was assessed using the Portuguese Language and Mathematics National Exams results. Multilevel linear regression models were fitted to assess regression coefficients predicting AA. The results showed that objectively measured total sedentary time was not associated with AA, after adjusting for potential confounders.  相似文献   

Grassroots Library Advocacy by Lauren Comito,Aliqae Geraci,and Christian Zabriskie     

Beatriz F. Fernandez 《Public Services Quarterly》2013,9(2):138-139

There are many instructional design theories to assist librarians in creating effective instructional modules for student learning. ADDIE is a generic instructional design model that has been in existence for more than 30 years and is known for its flexibility in application (Molenda, 2003 Molenda , M. ( 2003 ). In search of the elusive ADDIE model . Performance Improvement , 42 ( 5 ), 34 – 36 . doi: 10.1002/pfi.4930420508 [Crossref] , [Google Scholar]). Using instructional design theories such as ADDIE helps to better serve students, librarians, and faculty because it adds efficiency and cohesion to the designing and learning process (Bell &; Shank, 2007 Bell , S. J. , &; Shank , J. D. ( 2007 ). Academic librarianship by design: A blended librarian's guide to the tools and techniques . Chicago , IL : American Library Association . [Google Scholar]). In this article, the author writes about using the ADDIE model of instructional design to successfully incorporate new technologies into existing and new library instruction modules. The author outlines how the ADDIE model can be modified to fit specific technological needs of a library instruction program.  相似文献   

Expanding assessment methods and moments in history     

Jennifer Frost  Genevieve de Pont  Ian Brailsford 《Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education》2012,37(3):293-304

History courses at The University of Auckland are typically assessed at two or three moments during a semester. The methods used normally employ two essays and a written examination answering questions set by the lecturer. This study describes an assessment innovation in 2008 that expanded both the frequency and variety of activities completed by 182 undergraduates taking a course on the history of African‐American freedom struggles. All week‐by‐week tutorial assignments were collected for textual analysis to see if students were moving beyond the recollection and regurgitation of facts (surface learning) and instead were dealing with the deeper historical issues. The quality of student work coupled with our own classroom observations indicate that innovative assessment methods at regular moments during the semester made a positive difference to the student learning experience.  相似文献   

Cutting without Cursing: A Successful Cancellation Project     

Beatriz Betancourt Hardy  Martha C. Zimmerman  Laura A. Hanscom 《期刊图书馆员》2016,71(2):112-120

The Salisbury University Libraries embarked on a serials and database cancellation project in the 2014–2015 academic year, eventually cutting nearly 20% of journals without causing any faculty protests. Picking up ideas from numerous other libraries, the three-person project task force developed a three-stage process: 1) preparation—gathering data and laying the groundwork for getting feedback; 2) getting feedback from liaisons, faculty, and departments; and 3) making decisions about what to cut and sharing the results. This article details the steps taken and key recommendations for other libraries undertaking similar projects.  相似文献   

Speaking Q’anjobal,Spanish, and English: a world where other worlds are possible     

Beatriz Eugenia Guerrero-Arias 《Diaspora, Indigenous, and Minority Education》2019,13(3):133-145

Currently, there is a call for more humane ways in humanities, for transitions to a world where other worlds are possible. This qualitative case study analyzes an emergent translingual boy’s participation in diverse spatial repertoires to address issues of learning and community belonging. José is a 4-year-old preschool Guatemalan-ancestry boy, who speaks Q’anjob’al, Spanish, and English. He was placed in an English classroom with daily 30-min Spanish and English pullout. José participated in the pullout to a desirable extent but was marginalized in the English classroom. At home, José had varied opportunities for participating in diverse spatial repertoires. I discuss how home and school have different conceptions of learning and community belonging, and how the home setting with pluriversed spatial repertoires sheds light on a pedagogical practice aimed at transitioning towards a world where other worlds are possible.  相似文献
