Informing Culturally Competent Practice Through Cross-Racial Friendships     

Jane E. Atieno Okech  Julia Champe 《International journal for the advancement of counseling》2008,30(2):104-115

International and interdisciplinary literature on cross-racial friendships is critically reviewed as a source of relevant and provocative data for counselling professionals dedicated to multiculturalism. The authors discuss the dynamics of cross-racial friendships and implications for counsellors. Using practical examples grounded by interdisciplinary literature, the authors expand discussions about racism within the counselling profession.  相似文献   

Training reading and phoneme awareness skills in children with Down syndrome     

Kristina Goetz  Charles Hulme  Sophie Brigstocke  Julia M. Carroll  Louise Nasir  M. Snowling 《Reading and writing》2008,21(4):395-412

The authors report a short-term reading intervention study involving 15 children with Down syndrome (DS) who attended mainstream schools. The intervention programme taught children phoneme segmentation and blending skills in the context of learning letter-sounds and working with words in books. The children were taught by their learning support assistants, who received special training for this purpose. Compared to a waiting group, a group of eight children with DS improved significantly on measures of early literacy skills (letter-sound knowledge, Early Word Recognition) following eight weeks of intervention. The waiting group started to make progress once they received the intervention. Both groups maintained progress on the literacy measures five months after the intervention had finished. The results suggest that children with DS can benefit from structured, phonics-based reading intervention.  相似文献

Description of Environmental Factors in Schools: Lessons from a Study in North–West Spain     

Julia Crespo Comesa?a  Margarita Pino Juste 《International Review of Education/Internationale Zeitschrift für Erziehungswissenschaft/Revue internationale l'éducation》2007,24(1):205-218

The objective of this study is to offer a view on the different environmental factors that affect health (sound, light, colour, temperature) in the design, planning and organization of school premises. To achieve this, the authors first outline the problems leading to unhealthy situations. They subsequently analyse all the building and planning factors behind those problems based on a study carried out in the Autonomous Community of Galicia, in the north west of Spain. The study took as its subject all secondary-level education centres built in Galicia since the Spanish Basic Act on the Educational System (LOGSE) was passed by the Spanish Parliament in 1990. To conclude, the article offers a number of guidelines to be taken into account when designing a school environment.  相似文献   

Towards graduate employment: exploring student identity through a university-wide employability project     

Sally Smith  Colin Smith  Ella Taylor-Smith  Julia Fotheringham 《Journal of Further & Higher Education》2019,43(5):628-640

Students have expectations of their university education leading to graduate careers, with universities investing considerable resources in institution-wide initiatives designed to enhance opportunities for student work placements and work-related learning. However, there are large variations between courses and disciplines in student uptake of these opportunities, with limited evidence explaining why this might be the case. Recognising recent approaches which consider student identity in transitions, this study explored student attitudes to work-related learning across a range of subject disciplines. The first phase of the study used in-class surveys (N = 199) to focus on students’ self-identification and perceptions of employability initiatives. Follow-up interviews were conducted to further explore themes emerging in the survey data. The study found that, while some students drew on resources for identity work in their recognition of and approach to work-related learning, access was limited, and university resources were not always recognised or effective. The findings have implications for the design of effective graduate employability initiatives.  相似文献

Exploring the social inclusion of deaf young people in mainstream schools,using their lived experience     

Suzanne Edmondson  Julia Howe 《Educational Psychology in Practice》2019,35(2):216-228

Research suggests that children with hearing loss face a number of difficulties in the education system, including socially. Although there has been much research with the severe to profound deaf population there has been little research into the life experiences of children with moderate hearing loss who attend mainstream secondary schools. This research sought to examine the experiences of social inclusion for five young people with moderate hearing loss. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews in the young person’s school setting and were analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). Although each participant had distinctive experiences, there were a number of common themes that emerged indicating the factors that support social inclusion and those which create barriers for deaf children in schools. Implications for educational psychologists are considered and the limitations of the research are outlined.  相似文献   

‘I’m more confident now,I was really quiet’: exploring the potential benefits of child-led research     

Anne Graham  Julia Truscott 《International journal of qualitative studies in education》2017,30(2):190-205

This article explores whether child-led research (CLR) benefits the well-being of the children and young people involved. The article draws upon evaluation data from a pilot CLR programme facilitated by a non-government organisation that supports disadvantaged children, young people and families. Nine participants (aged 10–14 years old) volunteered for the CLR programme, conducted over 18 weeks, which involved learning about and undertaking their own research on a topic of their choosing. The programme was externally evaluated both in terms of process and outcomes so as to gain insights into what is involved in CLR and any potential benefits it might offer for participants. The discussion explores a range of positive benefits for children whilst also signalling the challenges involved in planning, implementing and evaluating such initiatives, not least of which is the difficulty in scaling up this kind of research, given its resource-intensive nature.  相似文献
