Enhancing Teaching and Learning: Libraries and Open Educational Resources in the Classroom     

Erin Davis  Dory Cochran  Britt Fagerheim  Becky Thoms 《Public Services Quarterly》2016,12(1):22-35

Academic libraries continually adjust services to adapt to the ever-changing landscape in higher education. In response to the broken textbook market, libraries are becoming actively involved in the open educational resources (OER) movement. Although there is not a formal program in place, librarians at Utah State University explored a collaborative approach to integrate OER in faculty members' courses. One goal of the effort was to work closely with faculty to consider course objectives and learning outcomes when evaluating and incorporating OER. This article identifies a streamlined process for targeting courses most suited for OER adoption and outlines a process of collaborating with teaching faculty to integrate relevant OER. The paper includes a detailed workflow that other libraries can easily adapt to make OER part of their faculty outreach toolkit.  相似文献   

Teaching Them to Teach: Programmatic Evaluation of Graduate Assistants’ Teaching Performance     

Karen Sobel  Susan Avery  Ignacio J. Ferrer-Vinent 《Public Services Quarterly》2016,12(3):189-213

Academic libraries are one of the most important sources of “on the job” training for future library instructors. Librarians who supervise and assess these future library instructors (often in graduate assistant positions) often choose to provide observations and feedback each semester to these instructors in training. Scholarly literature, however, provides little information on whether this system helps graduate assistants to develop as teachers. The authors of this article assessed graduate assistants’ performance as teachers over three semesters using a system of observation and self-assessment. They analyzed both patterns and areas of growth and discuss the strengths and weaknesses of this system.  相似文献   

华盛顿会议期间的国民外交运动述评     

易丙兰 《唐山师范学院学报》2007,29(6):77-80

华盛顿会议前后,民众通过组织国民外交团体、联合派遣国民外交代表等形式,表达自身在外交活动中的意愿和诉求,使国民外交运动在独立自主、联合发展方面有了进一步的发展。华盛顿会议后期,民众外交上的诉求未得到满足,国民外交运动由外转内,斗争目标指向北京政府。这种转变,推动了国内政局的变化,也导致了国民外交运动的分裂。  相似文献   

中国高校学术职业的结构性变迁及其影响   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

周艳 《清华大学教育研究》2007,28(4):50-55

中国教师学术职业的结构性变迁主要体现在两个方面:一方面指教师间学术职业结构的分化,由过去教师-行政人员间的二元结构,演变为现在的教师-课题经理-亦管亦教亦研的“学者官员“-纯管理者之间的多元关系和分层;另一方面指教师本人职业的分化,主要表现在教师学术角色的多元化.此外,本文还从大学学术行政化的管理体制、课题管理商业化操作、教师量化考核等几个方面探讨了引起这一结构变化的原因和后果.  相似文献

对大学学术自由和功利意识之间张力形成的认识     

邬小撑  童晓明  李玲娣 《黑龙江高教研究》2004,33(10):13-15

学术自由是大学尤其是研究型大学的“性格”，理所当然地要维护和弘扬。但是，随着经济的发展，尤其在知识经济年代，社会越来越要求大学体现服务功能。于是，在市场化和效益化的社会背景下，大学在发展过程中不可避免地产生了功利意识，从而形成了学术自由和功利意识之间的矛盾和张力。  相似文献

Academic socialization,parental educational expectations,and academic self‐efficacy among Latino adolescents     

Fernanda L. Cross  Aixa D. Marchand  Michael Medina  Andrea Villafuerte  Deborah Rivas‐Drake 《Psychology in the schools》2019,56(4):483-496

This study examined the direct association between parental educational expectations and adolescents’ academic self‐efficacy, as well as the moderating influence of parental academic socialization messages. Participants were 148 Latino parent–adolescent dyads with the majority of Mexican origin (80.4%). Most of the parent participants were mothers (85.8%). Adolescents were 13 (46%) or 14 (54%) years of age, and 53% identified as female. Adolescents reported their academic self‐efficacy and perceptions of their parents’ educational expectations; parents reported on their academic socialization messages of shame/pressure and effort regarding academics. The results suggest that, after accounting for parents’ level of education and immigrant status, parental educational expectations were positively associated with adolescent academic self‐efficacy. This association was stronger among adolescents whose parents reported transmitting fewer messages of shame/pressure and academic effort. These results point to the importance of nuances in the content and type of academic socialization messages within Latino families.  相似文献

Factors affecting the career progress of academic accountants in Australia: Cross-institutional and gender perspectives     

Nava Subramaniam 《Higher Education》2003,46(4):507-542

Since the late 1980s, Australian highereducation has undergone significant reforms andpolicy changes based on economic rationalismand modernisation of management. This paperexamines the outcomes of the reform processesbased on the career attributes, status andperceptions of work environment of academicaccountants in Australian universities.Similarities and differences between academicaccountants are explored fromcross-institutional and gender perspectives.The data provide insight into a number ofsystemic inequalities between the older andmore established universities and the neweruniversities. In specific, across-institutional analysis based on fouruniversity types: Sandstones/Redbricks,Gumtrees, Unitechs and New (Marginson 1999)indicates that academic accountants in Newuniversities employ a much lower proportion ofstaff with PhD qualification, a weakerpublication profile, and perceive greaterbarriers for conducting research in terms of ashortage of research mentors, colleagues withresearch experience, and post-graduatestudents. Further, the commitment to flexiblelearning and delivery strategies iscomparatively stronger in Unitechs, and posesadditional demands on accounting academics'overall workload. Perceptions of gender-baseddiscrimination by female academic accountantsare generally stronger than their malecounterparts, particularly, in Newuniversities. These results raise severalissues for academic accountants at both theinstitutional and individual level in terms ofequal employment opportunities, management ofresearch programmes, development of teachingstrategies and individual time management.  相似文献
