The Impact of an Early Literacy Initiative on the Long Term Academic Success of Diverse Students     

Stella SiWan Zimmerman  Michael C. Rodriguez  Kirsten L. Rewey  Sandra L. Heidemann 《Journal of Education for Students Placed at Risk》2013,18(4):452-481

The primary goal of the Words Work (WW) early literacy initiative was to prepare diverse students to become successful learners in school. Four groups of students were followed over 6 years: students from traditional Head Start (HS) centers, students from augmented HS centers (WW students), students eligible for HS but not enrolled (waitlist or WL), and a random sample of non-Head Start students (NHS). Students received school readiness instruction at approximately 4 years of age, and their performance on standardized tests was followed from 1st grade through 5th grade. WW students significantly outscored HS, WL, and NHS students of similar backgrounds in reading and outscored WL and NHS students in mathematics on 2nd-grade standardized assessments. In addition, WW students were able to maintain their lead through 5th grade in both reading and mathematics. Based on these results, WW is an effective HS enhancement for minimizing the achievement gap often observed between students who may be at risk for academic difficulty and students who are at low risk.  相似文献   

基于Mann-Kendall法的酒泉市近50年气候变化特征及突变分析   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

王宁  任进军 《甘肃高师学报》2013,(5):47-50

利用酒泉市所属6个站点1959-2008年的气温和降水资料,采用滑动平均、趋势分析和MannKendall等方法,分析该地区的气候变化的特征.结果表明:在全球变暖背景下,酒泉市的气温突变明显,而降水突变不明显.近50年来,酒泉市年平均气温和各个季节的平均气温呈显著变暖趋势,其中年平均气温在90年代中后期发生了突变,酒泉市东部的突变年份早于西部的突变年份;酒泉市年降水量呈微弱增长趋势,酒泉市东部的增长幅度略小于西部.这表明气候突变在酒泉市不同的地区会有不同的体现,突变时间不同步.  相似文献

剧情梗概 经过数轮激烈角逐,新一届美国总统加勒特·沃克诞生,自称"水管工"的众议院多数党党鞭弗兰西斯·安德伍德在其背后功不可没.然而高傲自大的政客弗兰西斯并未如愿当上国务卿,他为此恼怒不已,发誓要将背叛了自己的沃克拉下宝座.利用新总统拟推的综合教育改革法,弗兰西斯操纵《华盛顿先驱报》女记者佐伊·巴恩斯大做文章.初战告捷,他旋即指派手下对新政府展开新的围剿,同时巧妙化解躲避来自政敌的明枪暗箭.他犹如来自伊甸园的毒蛇,巧舌如簧,紧紧咬住所有人的弱点,以实现自己的目的."没有永远的敌人,只有永远的利益",这句话在弗兰西斯身上得到了最佳体现……  相似文献

Learning technology and disability—Overcoming barriers to inclusion: Evidence from a multicountry study     

Marion Hersh  Stella Mouroutsou 《British journal of educational technology : journal of the Council for Educational Technology》2019,50(6):3329-3344

The paper uses data from a 15-country study to discuss the factors which affect the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) and learning technologies by disabled people and consequently their access to education. Significant differences were found both between and within countries: income and language were the main factors affecting availability. Thus, the greatest availability was in the higher income English-speaking countries and the richer European countries. The main barriers to technology use included cost, lack of funding and lack of information. A particular disparity in technology access was found between the English-speaking European population and Aboriginal speakers of indigenous languages in Australia, with considerably greater access by the former than the latter group. A number of recommendations are presented to increase access to learning and assistive technologies by disabled people. They include encouragement for developers to produce free of charge (minority language) technologies, research on more effective provision of technologies and personal assistance, assistive technology centres in all learning institutions, simple funding mechanisms and a fund to support technology provision in poorer countries.  相似文献   

高职实训文化建设的现实依据     

庄三舵  路军方 《职教通讯(江苏技术师范学院学报)》2008,23(12)

高职校内实训基地具有教学实训和职业素质培养的双重功能.这两大功能应该并重,但是绝大多数院校非常重视实训基地的教学实训功能,而对其职业素质培养的功能开发程度不够.面对高职院校高级技术应用型人才的培养目标、企业高素质人才需求的现实,以及高职毕业生更高就业质量的要求,加快高职实训基地文化建设就成为必然的选择.  相似文献

Kidney function change after transcatheter aortic valve replacement in patients with diabetes and/or hypertension     

Jiaqi FAN  Changjie YU  Kaida REN  Wanbing LIN  Stella NG  Zexin CHEN  Xinping LIN  Lihan WANG  Qifeng ZHU  Yuxin HE  Jubo JIANG  Xianbao LIU  Jian'an WANG 《Journal of Zhejiang University. Science. B》2021,22(3):241-247

Aortic stenosis(AS)is a progressive heart valve disease occurring predominantly in older patients.According to a survey in a western country,the prevalence of AS is nearly 6.4%in patients over 75 years old(Carabello and Paulus,2009).Transcatheter aortic valve replacement(TAVR)is an alternative method for AS patients.Previous studies have described how up to 66%of TAVR patients have concomitant baseline kidney dysfunction(Ferro et al.,2015;Gargiulo et al.,2015).The majority of patients can benefit from the TAVR procedure with the recovery of kidney function.  相似文献
