This article seeks to explain the ways in which leadership makes a difference to the quality of instruction in US schools by reviewing research published since 2000. The review of research is presented in three major sections, organised according to the methodology used in each study. The first section looks into quantitative studies that probe the structural relationships among members and activities related to teaching and learning. Primarily drawing on surveys completed by school stakeholders, these studies uncover patterns of influence using advanced statistical methods. The second section summarises findings from qualitative case study research, which provide specific examples of conditions that support the leadership patterns previously identified. The final section offers further explanations of how these patterns of influence operate by examining the alignment of formal and social components of interactions through network methodology. 相似文献

This article aims to provide a baseline for future studies on the provision and support for the use of digital or electronic information services (EIS) in further education. The analysis presented is based on a multi‐level model of access, which encompasses access to and availability of information and communication technology (ICT) resources, access to and availability of EIS resources, and the third leg of staff skills and their development. The research was conducted within the third cycle of the JISC (Joint Information Services Committee) User Behaviour Monitoring and Evaluation Framework, in 2001/2002. Evidence was gathered from library and information service web sites and various stakeholders, including library and information service staff, academic staff and students to generate insights into the provision of access to EIS in further education. Sector‐wide funding initiatives have had a significant impact on ICT infrastructures, and these attract a positive response from students. EIS are represented on some library web sites but both web site development and EIS availability is very much less advanced than in higher education. Staff, however, lack sufficient dedicated access to ICT to be able to develop their own skills and use. There remains a low level of access to electronic information resources, with only limited access to these resources through library web sites. LIS managers face a number of challenges in enhancing this provision, including licensing arrangements, tight budgets that need to be spread across many discipline areas, and the absence of EIS designed specifically for the further education student. The other key challenge lies in the provision of time and opportunity for academic and LIS staff to develop their ICT and EIS skills, and, more generally in the further development of the role of Information and Learning Technology (ILT) Champions. 相似文献

The attitude towards science of first year early childhood education students was explored using an instrument developed for
the purpose. The instrument comprises four Likert-type scales, biographical items and two open-ended attitude items. The four
scales, characterised as ‘confidence’, ‘enjoyment’, ‘usefulness’ and ‘appropriateness of science for young children’, were
supported by varimax factor analysis and had reliabilities from 0.83 to 0.88. Use of the combined scales as a general ‘attitude
towards science’ scale was supported by principal components analysis; reliability for the combined scale was 0.94. Comments
made in response to the open-ended items supported the validity of the scales. For the student group as a whole, mean scores
on all scales were slightly to moderately positive, with the highest mean being for the ‘science for young children’ scale.
Students who had studied at least one science subject at Year 12 level had significantly higher scores on all scales than
students who had not studied science at senior level.

Studies of children's attitudes towards science indicate that a tendency for girls and boys to have different patterns of
interest in science is established by upper primary school level. It is not know when these interest patterns develop.
This paper presents the results of part of a project designed to investigate preschool children's interests in science. Individual
4–5 year-old children were asked to say what they would prefer to do from each of a series of paired drawings showing either
a science and a non-science activity, or activities from two different areas of science.
Girls and boys were very similar in their overall patterns of choice for science and non-science items. Within science, the
average number of physical science items chosen by boys was significantly greater than the average number chosen by girls
(p=.026). Girls tended to choose more biology items than did boys, but this difference was not quite significant at the .05
level (p=.054). The temporal stability of these choices was explored.
