Focused Multisensory Anatomy Observation and Drawing for Enhancing Social Learning and Three-Dimensional Spatial Understanding     

Leonard Shapiro  Kathryn Bell  Kallpana Dhas  Toby Branson  Graham Louw  Iain D. Keenan 《Anatomical sciences education》2020,13(4):488-503

The concept that multisensory observation and drawing can be effective for enhancing anatomy learning is supported by pedagogic research and theory, and theories of drawing. A haptico-visual observation and drawing (HVOD) process has been previously introduced to support understanding of the three-dimensional (3D) spatial form of anatomical structures. The HVOD process involves exploration of 3D anatomy with the combined use of touch and sight, and the simultaneous act of making graphite marks on paper which correspond to the anatomy under observation. Findings from a previous study suggest that HVOD can increase perceptual understanding of anatomy through memorization and recall of the 3D form of observed structures. Here, additional pedagogic and cognitive underpinnings are presented to further demonstrate how and why HVOD can be effective for anatomy learning. Delivery of a HVOD workshop is described as a detailed guide for instructors, and themes arising from a phenomenological study of educator experiences of the HVOD process are presented. Findings indicate that HVOD can provide an engaging approach for the spatial exploration of anatomy within a supportive social learning environment, but also requires modification for effective curricular integration. Consequently, based on the most effective research-informed, theoretical, and logistical elements of art-based approaches in anatomy learning, including the framework provided by the observe–reflect–draw–edit–repeat (ORDER) method, an optimized “ORDER Touch” observation and drawing process has been developed. This is with the aim of providing a widely accessible resource for supporting social learning and 3D spatial understanding of anatomy, in addition to improving specific anatomical knowledge.  相似文献   

The ‘origins of football debate’ and the early development of the game in Nottinghamshire     

Graham Curry  Eric Dunning 《Soccer & Society》2017,18(7):866-879

This article continues the debate on the origins of football. It contains new data which note early football activity and initial club formation in Nottinghamshire. The authors reach the conclusion that former public schoolboys were prominent in the development of football in that particular area and see this as further confirmation of their hypothesis that many of these individuals should be seen as important in the establishment of football as a modern sport.  相似文献

The Rucker-Gable educational programming scale: Stability over time     

Nick Henry  Steve Graham 《Psychology in the schools》1983,20(4):494-497

The Rucker-Gable Educational Programming Scale (RGEPS) was designed to measure a respondent's attitude toward the knowledge of appropriate program placement for handicapped students, and has been used to evaluate in-service workshops and university courses. Nonetheless, a recent investigation by Graham and Henry (1981) found that, even though the average correlation among items within the scale was substantial, the cross-correlation between similar halves of the RGEPS varied considerably over a short period of time. The present study was designed to determine if the reduction in reliability was due to either one of two factors (i.e., content inequivalence or attribute instability). The findings replicated, in part, the results obtained by Graham and Henry. In addition, it appears that the construct or constructs measured by the RGEPS are unstable over short periods of time.  相似文献   

Preschoolers modulate contrastive inferences during online language comprehension     

Narae Ju  Natalie Williams  Julie Sedivy  Craig G. Chambers  Susan A. Graham 《Child development》2023,94(5):1319-1329

This study examined 4- and 5-year-olds' incremental interpretation of size adjectives, focusing on whether contrastive inferences are modulated by speaker behavior. Children (N = 120, 59 females, mostly White, tested between July, 2018 and August, 2019) encountered either a conventional or unconventional speaker who labeled objects in a correspondingly typical or atypical way. Critical utterances contained size adjectives (e.g., “Look at the big duck”). With conventional speakers, gaze measures indicated that children rapidly used the adjective to differentiate members of a contrasting pair, indicating that even 4-year-olds derive contrastive inferences. With unconventional speakers, contrastive inferences were delayed in processing. The findings demonstrate that preschoolers adjust their use of pragmatic cues when presented with evidence disconfirming their default assumptions about a speaker.  相似文献   

Manager Coaching Skills: What Makes a Good Coach?     

Steven Graham  John F. Wedman  Barbara Garvin-Kester 《Performance Improvement Quarterly》1994,7(2):81-94

The concept of “manager as coach” is increasingly popular in the management literature as a mechanism for improving employee involvement and performance. This paper summarizes a study we conducted to evaluate “coaching skills” among sales managers. The study used telephone interviews with managers' subordinates to collect data regarding managers' coaching effectiveness. During the interviews, subordinates rated their supervisors' coaching skills and provided a rationale for their rankings. This study analyzes the ratings and the comments, and outlines the behaviors associated with both high and low ratings of manager coaching skills.  相似文献
