Investigating Journalism Students' Conceptions and Development of Critical Reflection through Teacher-Mediated Activities     

Morten Kronstad 《Journalism Practice》2016,10(1):123-139

This article offers a view of how journalism students in higher education conceptualize and develop critical reflection in the meeting between student and teacher. Critical reflection is seen as a key asset in journalism and a key process in bringing together practice and knowledge, thus closing the gap between theory and practice. In an attempt to understand how critical reflection is developed, a field study was conducted in a bachelor's programme in journalism, where one teacher and 12 students were observed and interviewed during two semesters in the students’ second year.  相似文献   

Understanding Sleep Disorders in a College Student Population     

Dallas R. Jensen 《Journal of College Counseling》2003,6(1):25-34

College students' sleep habits are changing dramatically, and related sleep problems are increasing. The author reviews the current literature on sleep problems, focusing on the college student population. An explanation of the basics of sleep is provided as a base for understanding sleep disorders. The unique challenges of college settings are discussed as they apply to understanding sleep problems, and suggestions are made for professionals who work with college students.  相似文献   

The changing work of teacher educators in Aotearoa New Zealand: a view through activity theory     

Alexandra C. Gunn  Mary F. Hill  David Berg  Mavis Haigh 《Asia-Pacific Journal of Teacher Education》2016,44(4):306-319

The study of recruitment practices for teacher educators (TEs) in Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ) universities reveals the academic category of TE constituted along three related trajectories: a professional expert (not required to research), a traditional academic (not required to hold a teaching qualification or teacher’s practicing certificate), and one who is dually qualified, to teach (as a registered NZ teacher) and to research. It is the dually qualified type of TE who can service the full scope of university-based initial teacher education (UBITE). Recent recruitment practices have, however, focused on employment of professional experts and traditional academics. Drawing from document analyses and interviews, we present a picture of changing work for TEs. Our study argues that policy environments and universities’ responses are changing the objects, rules, and divisions of labour in UBITE. We comment on the evolution of initial teacher education in NZ, its likely trajectory, and its potential for development.  相似文献

Latino children’s ability to interpret in health settings: A parent–child dyadic perspective on child health literacy     

Lisa M. Guntzviller  Jakob D. Jensen  Luz Maria Carreno 《Communication monographs》2017,84(2):143-163

To determine children’s ability to interpret in medical settings, 100 dyads of low-income, Spanish-speaking parents and their bilingual children who interpret for the parents were surveyed. Seventy-four children demonstrated adequate health literacy in English. Three theoretical perspectives (social cognitive theory, role-reversal theory, and the team-effort model) guided hypotheses about how parent and child characteristics influenced child health literacy. Structural equation model results supported the team-effort model. Children were more health literate when they were older, had better English abilities, had higher self-efficacy, and had parents with lower self-efficacy and better English language abilities. Children and parents may work as a team in medical interpreting settings, with children simultaneously compensating for and learning from parents.  相似文献

Visualising the future: surfacing student perspectives on post-graduation prospects using rich pictures     

Tessa Berg  Tracey Bowen  Colin Smith 《高等教育研究与发展》2017,36(7):1339-1354

The gradual commodification of higher education in the context of an increased focus on graduate employability attributes together with evolving labour markets is creating challenges for universities and students alike. For universities, there has been significant investment in careers services and, through institution-wide initiatives, employability or graduate attribute development established to support graduate transitions into work. Meanwhile, for students, experience of part-time work together with pessimistic post-recession employment discourses are challenging the notion that a good degree guarantees their future career prospects. Simultaneously, decreasing financial support from the state has resulted in worrying levels of debt for new graduates. This pilot study was designed to gain a fresh perspective of how students imagine themselves following graduation. The study used rich pictures (RP) as a methodology to explore student views of life beyond university in the UK and Canada. Content analysis of the RPs provided insights into their thoughts and anxieties about potential challenges for the future. Students presented both positive and negative visions of their future, with success in achieving a respectable performance in their final degree as the key differentiator. The insights gained are discussed in the context of related research into students’ concerns and university initiatives to support students throughout higher education and then into graduate employment. The findings revealed student motivations, hopes and fears which can inform the development of impactful university interventions.  相似文献   

Supporting primary-level mathematics teachers’ collaboration in designing and using technology-based scenarios     

Morten Misfeldt  Lis Zacho 《Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education》2016,19(2-3):227-241

In this article, we address how the design of educational scenarios can support teachers’ adoption of both technology and open-ended projects indorsing creativity and innovation. We do that by describing how groups of teachers develop digital learning environments supporting using a combination of GeoGebra and Google sites. Both teachers and pupils work with the concept of “game” as something they design, and furthermore, the pupils immerse themselves into the scenarios that the teachers create in a way similar to “playing a game.” We investigate teachers participation in collaborative development and testing through qualitative means, aiming to describe the teachers’ appropriation of (1) GeoGebra as a tool for doing and teaching mathematics, and (2) game as a metaphor supporting open-ended projects addressing creativity and innovation in the classroom. The data from the project suggest that the notion of “game” can support collaborative scenario design is a viable way of introducing technology and open-ended projects to primary school teachers.  相似文献   

A Theoretical Model for Examining the Link between Governance and Philosophy in Higher Education     

Devon Jensen 《Interchange》2001,32(4):395-417

Nearly all of the literature and research surrounding the idea of a university attempts to define and explain the role of the university in our current times. One area of burgeoning interest in this field is the precarious relationship among the provincial governments, the private sector, and the universities. As these stakeholders develop more involved relationships, university administrators must clearly define that institution's academic philosophy so that they can maintain a distinction between internal educational objectives and external socio-political and economic mandates. In order to accomplish this, it is essential that university administrators clearly understand the link between educational philosophy and administrative practice. This paper develops a theoretical model which describes the importance of recognizing the link between philosophy and administrative practice in university institutions.  相似文献   

Behavioral CRs elicited by a lithium- or an amphetamine-paired contextual test chamber     

Linda A. Parker  Karen Hills  Krista Jensen 《Learning & behavior》1984,12(3):307-315

The behavioral CRs elicited by a drug-paired contextual cue in rats were measured in a series of experiments. The first three experiments measured the pattern of CRs elicited by a lithiumand an amphetamine-paired CS chamber. The final experiment measured the pattern of URs elicited by lithium or amphetamine when administered in the same chamber. The suppression of grooming-related activities (body washing, face washing, and/or scratching) appeared as a nonspecific effect of both drug USs that was capable of becoming conditioned to the contextual chamber cue. A number of other behaviors differed among conditions, which provides evidence that contextual cue-drug associations are drug-specific. Of the behaviors that differed between the two US drug conditions, lithium CRs showed evidence of behavioral activation (enhanced rearing and limb flicking), but amphetamine CRs showed evidence of behavioral suppression (line crossing, rearing, and shaking). The UR patterns shared some similar and some dissimilar elements of the CR patterns elicited by the CS chamber for both lithium and amphetamine; in fact, by the activity and rearing measures, the URs and CRs were opposite in direction. The results exclusively supported neither stimulus substitution nor conditioned compensatory response accounts of Pavlovian conditioning; instead, each process appears to have accounted for different components of the overall CR pattern.  相似文献
