The pedagogical benefits of enacting positive psychology practices through a student–faculty partnership approach to academic development     

Alison Cook-Sather  Joel Alden Schlosser  Abigail Sweeney  Laurel M. Peterson  Kimberly Wright Cassidy  Ana Colón García 《International Journal for Academic Development》2018,23(2):123-134

Academic development that supports the enactment of positive psychology practices through student–faculty pedagogical partnership can increase faculty confidence and capacity in their first year in a new institution. When student partners practice affirmation and encouragement of strengths-based growth, processes of faculty acclimation and self-authoring can be accelerated. This article presents a student–faculty pedagogical partnership program and positive psychology practices that focus on faculty strengths and capacities as the foundation for reinforcing and revising existing pedagogical strategies and for sustaining energy for continued development. It combines collaborative autoethnographic and comparative case study approaches to investigate the pedagogical benefits of these practices.  相似文献   

Power,Language, and Ideology: Historical and Contemporary Notes on the Dismantling of Bilingual Education     

Flores  Susana Y.  Murillo  Enrique G. 《The Urban Review》2001,33(3):183-206

The authors situate the politics of language surrounding the passage of California's Proposition 227, by discussing the historical and contemporary conditions that have led to the recent dismantling of bilingual education. They review the dynamics of power, language, and ideology since precolonial times, through the colonial period, the era of the Treaty of the Guadalupe Hidalgo, the process of Americanization, the Civil Rights decades, and up to the current 227 law. These are used to bear the point that the hegemonic bond of language is a continual thread that carries over to the new millennium, as we witness the spread of English-only legislation.  相似文献   

Visual Literacy in Primary Science: Exploring Anatomy Cross-Section Production Skills     

Beatriz García Fernández  José Reyes Ruiz-Gallardo 《Journal of Science Education and Technology》2017,26(2):161-174

Are children competent producing anatomy cross-sections? To answer this question, we carried out a case study research aimed at testing graphic production skills in anatomy of nutrition. The graphics produced by 118 children in the final year of primary education were analysed. The children had to draw a diagram of a human cross section, integrating knowledge of anatomy acquired from longitudinal sections. The results show that they have very limited skills in producing these graphics judging by the dimensions (scale, shape, organs represented and its organization inside the section) and their conception of human anatomy at thoracic level (location of the organs, elements in the spaces between them and connections between organs). The results also indicate that the only exposure to cross-sections in daily life is not enough by itself to draw them correctly, so this type of graphic production should be addressed from the earliest stages of education, since it contributes to the development of visual literacy, and this is a crucial skill when it comes to learning science concepts and developing scientific literacy.  相似文献   

Remedial interventions for children with reading disabilities: speech perception--an effective component in phonological training?     

del Rosario Ortiz González M  Espinel AI  Rosquete RG 《Journal of learning disabilities》2002,35(4):334-342

The effects of two types of phonological training in children with reading disabilities (RD) were examined. One of the programs (SP/LPA) trained children in speech discrimination, letter-sound correspondence, and phonemic awareness. The other program (LPA) trained children only in letter-sound correspondence and phonemic awareness. The effects of these programs were compared with a control group. Thirty-five children with RD were trained in small groups five times a week for 4 weeks. The results indicated that both experimental groups improved in phonemic awareness compared to the control group but that only the SP/LPA group scored higher than the control group in reading.  相似文献   

School–University–Community Pathways to Higher Education: Teacher Perceptions,School Culture and Partnership Building     

Enrique AlemánJr.  Juan A. Freire  Ashley McKinney  Dolores Delgado Bernal 《The Urban Review》2017,49(5):852-873

This article provides a snapshot in time of teacher perceptions, school culture, and partnership building. We delineate how teachers perceive our partnership’s purpose and its role in transforming school culture. Second, we describe how teachers express the life expectations they have and the possibilities they hope for their students and the families involved with the partnership. Finally, we outline our thoughts on moving forward with building partnership, continuing to transform school culture, and collaborating with teachers. In conclusion, we discuss the role that partnership building can have on creating pathways to higher education for students in communities of color.  相似文献   

The Virtual University of the Monterrey Technical Institute     

Maria Cristina García 《Higher Education in Europe》2001,26(4):541-545

The creation and the achievements of the Virtual University of Monterrey Tech (Instituto Tecnolo´gico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey) in Mexico are briefly described. Monterrey Tech itself, which was founded in 1943, has had a vocation going back a number of years to offer distance education on a number of satellite campuses. The Virtual University was founded in 1996 to carry on the distance education vocation of the institution as a whole in Mexico and in other Latin American countries with the use of the new information and communications technologies (ICTs). The Virtual University is particularly active in the domain of community education, teacher retraining, in-company training programmes, and in the offer of training for Mexican state and local officials. Although a private entity, the Virtual University and its parent organization, Monterrey Tech, are firmly committed to the public development of Mexico.  相似文献
