From the Editor: A Blueprint for Communicating Your Research     

Lisa Romero 《Behavioral & Social Sciences Librarian》2013,32(1):1-2

Results of a survey of serial use by psychology faculty at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign are compared with an Americal Psychological Association report published in 1963 and with data extracted from "SSCI Journal Citation Reports," 1978. The article profiles the relationship between the three and evaluates their usefulness in collection development.  相似文献

Perspectives on learning to teach science: insights and dilemmas from a collaborative practicum project     

Gaalen Erickson  Jolie Mayer‐Smith  Alberto Rodriguez  Peter Chin  Ian Mitchell 《International Journal of Science Education》2013,35(5):585-597

In this article we discuss the theoretical and practical rationale for establishing a collaborative science practicum project and report on the findings of the first two years. The project was designed to strengthen the communication links among the school‐based educators, the pre‐service teachers, and the university‐based educators, in order to address the seemingly intractable problems associated with initiating new science teachers into the varied social practices of the teaching profession. Our findings are organized and discussed in the form of three dilemmas (Cuban 1992). These dilemmas are associated with the difficulties the pre‐service teachers had in connecting the propositional knowledge presented in the university setting with the procedural knowledge required in the school setting, and the lack of familiarity by the university and school‐based educators of each other's practice setting. We describe results that resonate with similar issues reported in other collaborative projects, and propose an alternative approach for preparing science teachers. This approach is based on conceptualizing learning to teach as a cognitive apprenticeship (Hennessy 1993) which prepares pre‐service teachers to enter the ‘community of practice’ called teaching. We argue that the success of such an approach requires the development of a collaborative community in which all participants engage in meaningful and supportive discourse concerning what, when and how science is taught in the classroom.  相似文献   

Transfronteriza pre-service teachers managing,resisting, and coping with the demands of mathematical discourse     

Alberto Esquinca 《International journal of qualitative studies in education》2013,26(3):279-300

This article reports on a case study of a college class for pre-service teachers on the US–Mexico border in which students participated in in-depth discussion around mathematical problems every day. This pedagogical approach promotes the socialization of students into and through the specialized discourse of mathematics. The focus of this paper is on the experience of transfronterizo students in that course. Transfronterizos are Mexican residents who periodically cross the border to attend school. For these students, whose educational background in Mexico allowed them to develop proficiency in elementary mathematical discourse in Spanish, their socialization experience includes ways in which they draw on language, and other social and learning experiences in Mexico. The focus of this paper is an assignment called Thinking Logs, a genre that required the use of mathematical discourse for teaching. Drawing on data gathered from participant observation of the course, interviews, analysis of study session discourse, and genre analysis, I highlight agentive ways that each participant used in their own socialization process. I show how participants improvised writing of models, asked for clarification in the first language, and even resisted the discourse. Students who resisted the demands might incur negative effects. Furthermore, I argue that the role of the guidance from an expert (such as a professor) is imperative in a socialization process, and I offer implications for ways that teachers can guide second language writers to develop mathematics discourse.  相似文献   

Public universities and the neoliberal common sense: seven iconoclastic theses     

Carlos Alberto Torres 《International Studies in Sociology of Education》2013,23(3):177-197

Neoliberalism has utterly failed as a viable model of economic development, yet the politics of culture associated with neoliberalism is still in force, becoming the new common sense shaping the role of government and education. This ‘common sense’ has become an ideology playing a major role in constructing hegemony as moral and intellectual leadership in contemporary societies. Neoliberal globalisation, predicated on the dominance of the market over the state and on deregulatory models of governance, has deeply affected the university in the context of ‘academic capitalism’. The resulting reforms, rationalised as advancing international competitiveness, have affected public universities in four primary areas: efficiency and accountability, accreditation and universalisation, international competitiveness and privatisation. There is also growing resistance to globalisation as top-down-imposed reforms reflected in the public debates about schooling reform, curriculum and instruction, teacher training and school governance. Many question whether neoliberal reforms attempt to limit the effectiveness of universities as sites of contestation of the national and global order and thus undermine the broader goals of education. Neoliberal reforms have limited access and opportunity along class and racial lines, including limiting access to higher education through the imposition of higher tuition and reduced government support to institutions and individuals.  相似文献

Límites en la capacidad de procesamiento y déficit atencional en niños hiperactivos     

Agustín Romero  Concha López  Ascensión Garriga 《Infancia y Aprendizaje》2013,36(41):117-130

Resumen

El déficit atencional en niños hiperactivos ha sido investigado a partir de las teorías tradicionales de la atención. Este trabajo incorpora las recientes teorías de limitaciones en la capacidad de procesamiento mediante un paradigma de doble tarea (visual y auditiva). Se manipula el nivel de dificultad de la tarea secundaria y se comprueba su efecto en niños hiperactivos (n-=28) y normales (n=28) de 2.°-3.° y 4.°-6.° cursos de EGB. Los resultados permiten sostener que al aumentar la dificultad de la tarea secundaria, los hiperactivos de 4.°-6.° tienen peor ejecución que los controles de los mismos cursos y edad, mientras que en 2.°-3.° ocurre lo contrario. Los hiperactivos muestran una mayor inestabilidad y labilidad en la asignación de recursos y/o en los límites de capacidad de procesamiento.  相似文献   

Does endurance training improve red blood cell aging and hemorheology in moderate-trained healthy individuals?     

Daniel A. Bizjak  Fabian Tomschi  Gunnar Bales  Elie Nader  Marc Romana  Philippe Connes  Wilhelm Bloch  Marijke Grau 《运动与健康科学(英文)》2020,9(6):595-603

ObjectiveTo examine the impact of a 6-week endurance training on red blood cell (RBC) aging and deformability of healthy participants to detect possible improved hemorheological and performance-related adaptations.MethodsA total of 31 participants (17 females and 14 males) performed a 6-week moderate training protocol (three 1-h running sessions per week at 70% of maximal heart rate). Blood was sampled before and after the training. RBCs from each participant were fractioned according to density and age into 4 RBC subfractions. Subfractions were examined for changes of RBC properties, including aging distribution, RBC deformability, RBC microparticles, and phosphatidylserine concentrations. RBC and plasma nitrite levels were measured as indicators of nitric oxide metabolism.ResultsAerobic performance, peak oxygen consumption, ventilatory thresholds, velocity at the aerobic–anaerobic threshold, and lactate at exhaustion improved after training. The relative amount of both young RBCs and old RBCs increased, and the amount of the main RBC fraction decreased. Phosphatidylserine externalization and RBC-derived microparticles decreased. Overall deformability expressed as shear stress required to achieve half-maximum deformation to theoretical maximal elongation index at infinite shear stress improved in unfractioned RBCs (p < 0.001). Nitrite decreased in total (p = 0.001), young (p < 0.001), main (p < 0.001), and old (p = 0.020) aged RBCs and in plasma (p = 0.002), but not in very old RBCs.ConclusionThese results indicate that non-endurance-trained healthy participants benefit from a regular moderate running training program because performance-related parameters improve and a younger RBC population with improved RBC properties is induced, which might support oxygen supply in the microcirculation.  相似文献
