A capability approach to children's well-being,agency and participatory rights in education     

Caroline Sarojini Hart  Nicolás Brando 《European Journal of Education》2018,53(3):293-309

This article applies a capability approach to examine how children's agency, well-being and participation rights can be developed and supported in educational settings. We introduce Amartya Sen's concepts of agency and well-being freedoms and achievements to highlight the tensions and trade-offs between risks to children's agency and well-being in and through educational processes. We draw upon selected empirical examples to illustrate this relationship further. By positioning the development of children's agency as an explicit and important goal of education, alongside well-being achievement, we aim to broaden the evaluative space for assessing what constitutes quality in children's education. We conclude with some reflections on implications for policy and practice going forward.  相似文献   

Adding a Feature: Can a Pop-Up Chat Box Enhance Virtual Reference Services?     

Suhua Caroline Fan  Rick L. Fought  Paul C. Gahn 《Medical reference services quarterly》2017,36(3):220-228

Online users seek help from virtual reference services via email, phone, texting, and live chat. Technologies have enabled new features in library websites to help make this service more accessible and effective. This article is an evaluation of an experimental pop-up live chat box on the website of a health sciences library to see whether the feature would enhance virtual reference services.  相似文献   

Reading Foreign Languages in the First Phase of Secondary Education: why,what and how?     

Caroline Schouten‐van Parreren 《欧洲师范教育杂志》1989,12(2):131-140

In this article it is argued that reading skills in the teaching of a foreign language are much neglected in the first phase of secondary education. In order to show (I) why reading is of great importance for language acquisition in general and (2) how to utilise reading in the initial stages of language learning, the following questions are dealt with: (1) What is the status of reading in the different approaches to foreign language learning? (2) Why not focus on listening in terms of the receptive skills? (3) Which different types of texts (books) can be used? (4) How should these texts be used in order to maximise the contribution to language acquisition?  相似文献   

Measuring the quality of e‐learning     

David B. Hay  Caroline Kehoe  Marc E. Miquel  Stylianos Hatzipanagos  Ian M. Kinchin  Steve F. Keevil  Simon Lygo‐Baker 《British journal of educational technology : journal of the Council for Educational Technology》2008,39(6):1037-1056

This paper shows how concept mapping can be used to measure the quality of e‐learning. Six volunteers (all of them 3rd‐year medical students) took part in a programme of e‐learning designed to teach the principles of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Their understanding of MRI was measured before and after the course by the use of concept mapping. The quality of change in individuals' maps was assessed using criteria developed to distinguish between meaningful and rote‐learning outcomes. Student maps were also scored for evidence of conceptual richness and understanding. Finally, each map was compared directly with the content of the electronic teaching material. The results show that many of the student misconceptions were put right in the course of their learning but that many of the key concepts introduced in the teaching were ignored (or sometimes learnt by rote) by the students. This was because the teaching material locked these new ideas in structures and terminology that precluded meaning‐making among non‐experts. Our data suggest that students' prior knowledge is a key determinant of meaningful learning. We suggest that this must be acknowledged if the design and use of electronic teaching material is also to be meaningful. Ultimately, measures of student learning are the only authentic indicators of the quality of teaching through technology.  相似文献

The impact of cognitive communities on the diffusion of academic knowledge: Evidence from the networks of inventors of a French university     

Caroline Hussler  Patrick Rondé 《Research Policy》2007,36(2):288-302

Looking at micro-data on the networks of inventors of a French science university, we investigate whether the kind of cognitive relationships between researchers influences the geography of their collaborations.The hypothesis we test (and confirm empirically) is that academic knowledge diffuses in a restricted geographic area when the connected researchers belong to epistemic communities, whereas communities of practice entail less localised effects. We also show that institutionally mixed research teams do not impede large knowledge diffusion.  相似文献   

Data‐Driven Improvement in Prekindergarten Classrooms: Report From a Partnership in an Urban District          下载免费PDF全文

Dale C. Farran  Deanna Meador  Caroline Christopher  Kimberly T. Nesbitt  Laura E. Bilbrey 《Child development》2017,88(5):1466-1479

In 2014–2015 and 2015–2016, a metropolitan school system in the southern United States embarked on a unique mission to improve the quality of its public prekindergarten programs through a partnership with a group of developmental researchers in an iterative, data‐based venture. Data on 407 children in Year 1 and 433 in Year 2 (who were enrolled in 26 classrooms and extensively observed) are presented from the first 2 years of the ongoing partnership. All children were 4 years of age. Variability in classroom practices, measured empirically, and variability in child outcomes provided the means to examine the relations between children's gains in academic and social‐emotional areas and major areas of classroom practices. Lessons learned, the eight identified significant practices, implications, and next steps in the partnership are addressed.  相似文献
