Job Analysis for Lkensure and Certfication Exams: Science or Politics?     

David S. Nelson 《Educational Measurement》1994,13(3):29-35

How might empirical j o b analysis give the appearance of science to a flawed public policy? How do “political” factors have an impact on the development of licensure tests? What are areas for future research and for improvement of prevailing practices in licensure and certification testingy?  相似文献

Metacognition and Self-Regulated Learning Constructs   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Rayne A. Sperling  Bruce C. Howard  Richard Staley  Nelson DuBois 《Educational Research and Evaluation》2013,19(2):117-139

Demographic variables, findings from the Metacognitive Awareness Inventory (Schraw & Dennison, 1994), the Learning Strategies Survey (Kardash & Amlund, 1991), and the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (Pintrich, Smith, Garcia, & McKeachie, 1991), as well as accuracy ratings of test performance, were examined in 2 studies. Findings indicated convergence of self-report measures of metacognition, significant correlations between metacognition and academic monitoring, negative correlations between self-reported metacognition and accuracy ratings, and positive correlations between metacognition and strategy use and metacognition and motivation. Limitations of the studies and implications for theory development and future research are discussed.  相似文献

Is Criminology Out-of-Date? A Research Note on the Use of Common Types of Data     

Matthew S. Nelson  Alese Wooditch  Shaun L. Gabbidon 《Journal of Criminal Justice Education》2013,24(1):16-33

There is a need to explore trends in data use by researchers in criminology to assess the limitations of the knowledge base in the discipline. The current study explores the use of data published in three top criminology journals over a 10-year period to review: (1) data types (primary, secondary, or both), (2) the age of the data, and (3) whether scholars using data at least a decade old mention it as a limitation. The study found that the time dimension of data varied by publication source. A heavy reliance on secondary data was observed across all journals. Studies using only secondary data tended to have older data on average when compared to other data types. A majority of articles using data at least a decade old did not mention it is a shortcoming. The paper concludes by discussing advantages and disadvantages of relying on secondary data within the discipline of criminology.  相似文献   

ALLEVIATING TRANSFER SHOCK: CREATING AN ENVIRONMENT FOR MORE SUCCESSFUL TRANSFER STUDENTS     

Tammy J. Rhine  Dawna M. Milligan  Lynne R. Nelson 《Community College Journal of Research & Practice》2013,37(6):443-453

Community college students transferring to a 4-year college or university face a variety of challenges. Social and academic issues can pose potential hurdles to graduating with a bachelor's degree for these students. Community colleges and 4-year institutions must work closely together to create more efficient and effective partnerships for students transitioning through the higher education system. This article makes suggestions for community college staff and faculty members to help transfer students successfully transition into university life and complete a bachelor's degree.  相似文献   

Academic Resiliency Among Dominican English-Language Learners     

Nelson A. Reynoso 《Community College Journal of Research & Practice》2013,37(4-6):391-434

This study examined how Dominican English-language learners at Bronx Community College achieved academic resiliency despite facing personal, academic, and environmental adversities. Using individual interviews, data were analyzed from the perception of students. A resilient-based model emerged that sheds light on the personal barriers experienced by Dominican English-language learners in an urban community college and the facilitating factors which fostered educational resiliency. The author found seven resiliency factors that contributed to the academic achievement of Dominican English-language learners: (a) faculty support, (b) tutoring support, (c) counseling support, (d) peer support, (e) family support, (f) self-motivation, and (g) bi-cultural identity development.  相似文献
