The World's 100 Largest Cities     

David Drew  Dave Steyne 《Teaching Statistics》1995,17(1):17-21

Data are presented here for the hundred largest cities in the World. They form part of a case study to teach students about exploratory data analysis but are of added interest in providing a focus on poverty and underdevelopment in the Third World and the contrast between this and the wealth of the First World.  相似文献   

教育和价值的几个问题   总被引：6，自引：0，他引：6  

托马斯·马格奈尔  董立河 《教育研究》2004,(10)

教育涉及许多价值,它们表现在教育的两个方面:教和学,我们可以从教育和学习的角度对它们进行探究。无论是诱导的教育还是塑造的教育都蕴涵着价值因素。作为任务的学习和作为成就的学习都涉及价值,它们包括工具价值和内在价值。应重视作为任务的学习的内在价值,这有利于培养人的独立学习和思考能力及创造能力。在研究教育中的价值时要注意三种价值:学科价值、交互学科价值、元学科价值。  相似文献   

Group norms, threat, and children's racial prejudice     

Nesdale D  Maass A  Durkin K  Griffiths J 《Child development》2005,76(3):652-663

To assess predictions from social identity development theory (SIDT; Nesdale, 2004) concerning children's ethnic/racial prejudice, 197 Anglo-Australian children ages 7 or 9 years participated in a minimal group study as a member of a team that had a norm of inclusion or exclusion. The team was threatened or not threatened by an out-group that was of the same or different race. Consistent with SIDT, prejudice was greater when the in-group had a norm of exclusion and there was threat from the out-group. Norms and threat also interacted with participant age to influence ethnic attitudes, although prejudice was greatest when the in-group had an exclusion norm and there was out-group threat. The implications of the findings for SIDT are discussed.  相似文献

The College Science Improvement Program: An empirical evaluation     

Drew  David E. 《Research in higher education》1974,2(1):25-43

Longitudinal data on a national sample of undergraduates, along with institutional data, were used in a study of the College Science Improvement Program of the National Science Foundation. In Phase 1, the characteristics of institutions which received COSIP grants were examined. It was found that these institutions were more selective, more affluent, and had a higher percentage of Ph.D.'s on the faculty than nonrecipients. In Phase 2, the relationships between COSIP support and a variety of student outcomes were analyzed while controlling for initial, potentially biasing differences. Among the findings: students in schools which had received COSIP grants were more likely to aspire toward the Ph.D. and to plan on doing research and were less likely to transfer out of that college.

Ranking academic departments: Empirical findings and a theoretical perspective     

David E. Drew  Ronald Karpf 《Research in higher education》1981,14(4):305-320

Evaluations of academic departments through peer review rankings have assumed importance in decision making by government officials, university administrators, and department chairpersons. This article reviews the history of these highly publicized rankings and subsequent attempts to identify empirical correlates of the ratings. New findings are presented which indicate that the ACE rankings can be predicted almost perfectly (r=.91) with one measure—departmental rate of publication in highly cited journals. The implications of this finding are discussed, since it both supports the notion of peer rankings but also reveals some inherent weaknesses in the academic assessment process. Finally, it is suggested that concepts from social stratification theory can illuminate our understanding of evaluation in higher education.  相似文献

The Role of Campus Traditions in Campus Life at Christian Colleges and Universities     

Skip Trudeau  Mike Hammond  Drew Moser  Danielle Eversole  Austin Smith 《Christian Higher Education》2019,18(1-2):24-36

This article presents the preliminary findings of an ongoing Traditions Research Project (TRP) study on the impact of campus traditions on campus life within the context of Christian postsecondary institutions. In this initial phase, the researchers conducted 63 interviews with faculty, student development educators, and staff members, in addition to gathering data from 12 student focus groups at three institutional members of the Council for Christian Colleges & Universities. In the future, the researchers intend to identify several additional colleges that have tradition-rich environments in order to expand the qualitative database related to this topic. The initial process of data analysis identified three major themes, along with several subthemes, regarding the role of traditions in contributing to campus life. These themes provide valuable information regarding the characteristics of campus traditions, the important role they play in creating and maintaining campus culture, and the role of these events in the lives of participants and institutions. In addition to presenting and discussing the themes and subthemes, the authors provide implications for practice that may be helpful to higher education leaders as they seek to provide meaningful campus traditions that foster students’ holistic development.  相似文献
