Optical engineering for children – a structured approach     

John McCarthy  R. A. Moore 《European Journal of Engineering Education》2006,31(6):741-746

The present paper focuses on the application of a structured template, maximum impact flow (MIF), in order to encourage young students in the area of optics and optical engineering. MIF introduces a template in terms of individual steps and linked functionality and is shown to fuse separate learning tools together into a cohesive unit. Prioritization and teaching structures are also discussed with the promotion of technology identified as a key factor.  相似文献   

Pupils’ Perceptions of Technology in the Secondary School Curriculum: a case study     

Alun C. McCarthy  Dennis Moss 《Educational studies》1990,16(3):207-216

This paper reports a study of pupils attitudes to Craft Design Technology (CDT), Technology (GCSE) and Technology A level in a Mid Glamorgan secondary school. Technology is regarded by the pupils as being intellectually demandng and having a high ‘employment value’. This seems to attract more able pupils (of both sexes) than would be the case for other CDT subject areas. Pupils perceive CDT: Technology to have the characteristics of Science subjects rather than those of Arts or Crafts. A significant proportion of female students in this case study are attracted to study A level Technology and investigations are continuing to identify the underlying reasons for this.  相似文献

Issues Arising from the Introduction of Tertiary Education Enterprise Activities — Examples from TAFE     

Pauline Mageean 《高等教育研究与发展》1990,9(2):123-132

This paper has been written for those concerned with tertiary education enterprises whether as developers of saleable intellectual property (such as inventions, ideas, resources, concepts), providers of a course or other service, as negotiators of contracts, marketers of educational services or as policy developers concerned with the overall organisation of tertiary education and the place and purposes of enterprise activities within this. It assumes that enterprise activities are now and will be in the future, an important feature of tertiary education in Australia. It discusses a number of potential and existing conflicts and tensions of relevance to those involved in these activities and provides examples of how certain TAFE institutions have responded to these.  相似文献   

Group time treasures: Implications for learning     

Pauline Davey Zeece  Marcia Corr 《Early Childhood Education Journal》1989,17(1):32-34

Meaningful group times have been a hallmark of quality early childhood programs for many years. Stimulating group experiences present a wealth of opportunities for everyone involved. Adults are better able to monitor children's skills and enjoy their ongoing growth. Group activities also may set the stage for an abundance of adventures as young children grow and learn in all areas of their development (Bredekamp, 1986).Pauline Davey Zeece and Marcia Corr are at the Department of Human Development and the Family, University of Nebraska-Lincoln in Lincoln, Nebraska.  相似文献   

Effects of thematic‐based,hands‐on science teaching versus a textbook approach for students with disabilities     

Cheryl B. McCarthy 《科学教学研究杂志》2005,42(3):245-263

Institutions of higher education, states, and local K–12 districts have been challenged to improve math and science education for our nation's students. In the past few years, there has been renewed interest in inquiry‐based, activity‐oriented instruction in science for students with disabilities. Yet, there still exists the need for further empirical evidence to support instructional improvements for students with more involved emotional and behavioral disabilities. This study describes a program in which 18 middle school students with serious emotional disturbances were instructed, over the course of 8 weeks, on “Matter” by two different instructional approaches. Students in one classroom received a traditional textbook approach to science content, whereas students in another classroom received science instruction by a hands‐on, thematic approach. Over the course of instruction, data were collected regarding students' behavior and achievement. Results indicate that, overall, students in the hands‐on instructional program performed significantly better than the students in the textbook program on two of three measures of science achievement, a hands‐on assessment and a short‐answer test. The students did not differ on a multiple‐choice format test. With regard to behavior, there were no significant differences in behavioral problems found between the two groups of students over the course of the study. Findings are discussed in relation to instructional implications for students with disabilities in the science classroom. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Res Sci Teach 42: 245–263, 2005  相似文献   

From the Washington to the Post-Washington Consensus: The influence of international agendas on education policy and practice in Malawi     

Pauline Rose 《Globalisation, Societies & Education》2003,1(1):67-86

Education is receiving ever-increasing priority in the post-Washington consensus era, which views education as both a means to and end of development. However, justification for the attention given to education continues to be centrally focused on the notion of human capital. By consequence, marketisation and privatisation of education are becoming increasingly significant. With the World Bank and WTO joining forces to create a vision for a 'global education industry', emphasis is placed on free trade in educational goods and services. The paper examines critically the implications of this international education agenda for developing countries, focusing on the experience of Malawi.  相似文献
