Cultures of Experimental Practice – An Approach in a Museum     

Heering  Peter  Müller  Falk 《Science & Education》2002,11(2):203-214

The aim of this paper is to describe the generation of as well as theexperiences made with an exhibition that was presented in spring 1998 in the Oldenburg Museumof Natural History and Pre-History. The thematic leitmotiv of thisexhibition was to present experiments from the history of physics as a cultural activity. In doing so, reconstructionsof historical experimental set-ups were not only shown but enabled the visitors to make their own experimentalexperiences with these apparatus.  相似文献   

Lewis Carroll’s Obtuse Problem     

Ruma Falk  Ester Samuel‐Cahn 《Teaching Statistics》2001,23(3):72-75

Carroll’s apparently impeccable solution to one of his probability problems is shown to answer another problem that is based on reasonable assumptions. His original assumptions, however, are self contradictory, hence entailing paradoxical results.  相似文献   

Modeling Response Styles in Cross‐Country Self‐Reports: An Application of a Multilevel Multidimensional Nominal Response Model     

Unhee Ju  Carl F. Falk 《Journal of Educational Measurement》2019,56(1):169-191

We examined the feasibility and results of a multilevel multidimensional nominal response model (ML‐MNRM) for measuring both substantive constructs and extreme response style (ERS) across countries. The ML‐MNRM considers within‐country clustering while allowing overall item slopes to vary across items and examination of whether certain items were more prone to ERS. We applied this model to survey items from TALIS 2013. Results indicated that self‐efficacy items were more likely to trigger ERS compared to need for professional development, and the between‐country relationships among constructs can change due to ERS. Simulations assessed the estimation approach and found adequate recovery of model parameters and factor scores. We stress the importance of additional validity studies to improve the cross‐cultural comparability of substantive constructs.  相似文献

On meaning making in mathematics education: social, emotional, semiotic     

Falk Seeger 《Educational Studies in Mathematics》2011,77(2-3):207-226

This paper is an attempt to add to the foundation of our understanding of meaning making in mathematics education. This attempt seems to be necessary as a growing body of research, primarily in developmental psychology, begins to change our view of early human development. Empathy, reciprocity, and implicit understanding seem to be more suitable concepts to describe human development and learning than the ones previously employed, based, e.g., on aggression as natural instinct or competitiveness as genetically wired basic drive.  相似文献   

An operational,policy-oriented research categorization scheme     

Charles E. Falk 《Research Policy》1973,2(3):186-202

The currently used Basic-Applied research classification schemes and the criteria used to define them: (a) do not really identify different types of research activity but rather motivation of performers and sponsors or the expected generality of results; (b) generate relatively ambiguous statistical data and (c) generate great difficulties among those who have to produce or collect the information. It is suggested that this particular mode of research classification is not optimally responsive to the needs of policy makers, who are primarily interested in the utility of results, and that this utility is related to different operational types of research. A substitute broad research activity taxonomy is proposed based on a single criterion - degree of external intellectual constraints. On this basis, a simplified operational mode of statistical data collection is proposed. It is illustrated how science policy formulation, especially in the areas of resource allocation and organization, would be facilitated by use of these more suitable concepts and the resulting improved quantitative information.  相似文献   

Talent identification and early development of elite water-polo players: a 2-year follow-up study   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Falk B  Lidor R  Lander Y  Lang B 《Journal of sports sciences》2004,22(4):347-355

The processes of talent detection and early development are critical in any sport programme. However, not much is known about the appropriate strategies to be implemented during these processes, and little scientific inquiry has been conducted in this area. The aim of this study was to identify variables of swimming, ball handling and physical ability, as well as game intelligence, which could assist in the selection process of young water-polo players. Twenty-four players aged 14-15 years underwent a battery of tests three times during a 2-year period, before selection to the junior national team. The tests included: freestyle swim for 50, 100, 200 and 400 m, 100-m breast-stroke, 100-m 'butterfly' (with breast-stroke leg motion), 50-m dribbling, throwing at the goal, throw for distance in the water, vertical 'jump' from the water, and evaluation of game intelligence by two coaches. A comparison of those players eventually selected to the team and those not selected demonstrated that, 2 years before selection, selected players were already superior on most of the swim tasks (with the exception of breast-stroke and 50-m freestyle), as well as dribbling and game intelligence. This superiority was maintained throughout the 2 years. Two-way tabulation revealed that, based on baseline scores, the prediction for 67% of the players was in agreement with the final selection to the junior national team. We recommend that fewer swim events be used in the process of selecting young water-polo players, and that greater emphasis should be placed on evaluation of game intelligence.  相似文献   

A Classic Probability Puzzle     

Ruma Falk 《Teaching Statistics》1996,18(1):17-19

A classic probability puzzle, presenting an absurd result, is analysed. Clearing the confusion caused by this problem sheds light on basic concepts of probability theory.  相似文献
