Recouping and rethinking the effects of summer vacation on reading achievement     

Shawnna Helf  Moira Konrad  Bob Algozzine 《Journal of Research in Reading》2008,31(4):420-428

Vacations may have detrimental effects on maths and spelling performance, but the findings for reading are less conclusive. The purpose of this study was to analyse the effects of summer vacation on early literacy skills of young children. Participants included rising first and second‐graders, most of whom were at‐risk, struggling readers. No evidence of summer setback was evident for this sample of children; in fact, gains in reading (or, recoupment of any losses) were more common in children performing at lower levels than for those with higher scores at the end of the school year. Our outcomes are different from those reported by other researchers. We explain this with attention to the content of our comparisons, the grade levels investigated and measures used to assess performance, and discuss implications for future research based on our findings.  相似文献   

Patents and incentives to invent     

J. Phillips 《Endeavour》1984,8(2):90-94

The laws which govern the grant of patents for inventions are assumed to serve two useful ends. Firstly, they are conceived as an incentive to inventors to make and then disclose their inventions. Secondly they are viewed as providing an appropriate means for facilitating a division of resources between those who make inventions and those who exploit them. Both these presumed functions are examined in this article, which raises questions as to the utility of current laws in the achievement of these ends.  相似文献

Researching the habitus of global policy actors in education     

Bob Lingard  Sam Sellar  Aspa Baroutsis 《Cambridge Journal of Education》2015,45(1):25-42

This paper reprises the argument for the emergence of a global education policy field and then focuses on the shared habitus of global and national policy actors and technicians. It is argued that this shared habitus is constituted as a reflection of and a contribution to the creation of the global education policy field. Bourdieu’s approach to habitus as both methodological tool and concept is used and the significance of the interview encounter to understanding habitus is argued. The authors also draw on the content of interviews with five elite policy-makers and technicians. It was found that the policy actors and technicians shared a similar middle-class embodied habitus; in terms of schemes of perception, they identified with a high-modernist confidence in both science and technology; they identified with a cosmopolitan outlook and sensibility; and demonstrated scientistic approaches that held real confidence in understanding the social through quantitative social science methods.  相似文献   

The Continuous Learning Journey of a Certified Performance Technologist     

Bob Winter 《Performance Improvement》2016,55(4):8-11

In this article the author, a certified performance technologist (CPT), explains what led him to pursue the CPT designation and what he has learned since then. His learning journey is framed by the three phases of Shu‐Ha‐Ri, a martial arts concept. He tells of how he developed a foundational proficiency with the CPT performance standards before truly understanding the principles and foundational concepts behind the practices associated with the standards. In his early days, he studied the work of performance improvement masters and practiced their techniques, both interpersonal and analytical. In the years after earning the CPT designation, he strove for true mastery in applying hybrid techniques or ones of his own invention, all grounded in the CPT principles.  相似文献
