ABSTRACTIndividual innovativeness has become one of the most important employability skills for university graduates. In this paper, we focus on how students could be better prepared to be innovative in the workplace, and we argue that inquiry-based learning (IBL) – a pedagogical approach in which students follow the inquiry-based processes used by scientists to construct knowledge – can be effective for this purpose. Drawing on research which examines the social and cognitive micro-foundations of innovative behavior, we develop a conceptual model that links IBL and student innovativeness, and introduce three teacher-controlled design elements that can influence the strength of this relationship, namely whether an inquiry is open or closed, discovery-focused or information focused and individual or team-based. We argue that an open, discovery-focused and team-based inquiry offers the greatest potential for enhancing students’ skills in innovation. This paper has several implications for higher education research and practice. 相似文献

The present study aimed at developing a scale to evaluate navigational performance as a whole, which is one of the factors influencing learning in hyper media. In line with this purpose, depending on the related literature, an item pool of 15 factors was prepared, and these variables were decreased to 5 based on the views of 38 field experts. In the end, a 3-factor structured was obtained via a pilot application carried out with 32 Information Technologies (IT) students, via the confirmatory factor analysis conducted with 110 IT students and via the reliability analysis carried out with 33 IT students. The scale included 14 items, and the internal consistency coefficient regarding the whole scale was calculated as α?=?0.90. The results of the Pearson correlation analysis revealed that the test-retest correlation coefficients of the items ranged between 0.762 and 0.954. As a result of the analyses conducted, the Hyper-MNP scale was found to be a valid and reliable tool that can be used to measure the navigational performance in hyper media. 相似文献

News stories about protests are often accompanied by footage or photos depicting dramatic or violent acts that occur during the protest, even though such acts may be rare or insignificant. Although the assumption is that visual depiction of normative deviance draws the attention of audience members, thus facilitating learning about the social issue, extant research does not suggest this will always be the case. The current study found that greater informational utility, not photographic depiction of deviance, increased selective exposure to a protest story in a Web news environment. However, when the protesters were depicted as more, rather than less, deviant, participants reported less positive perceptions of the protesters. In turn, less positive perceptions of the protesters were associated with less attention to and, ultimately, lower comprehension of the accompanying news story. Implications for learning about political and social issues in the current news environment are discussed. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of aesthetic education on the development of aesthetic judgment of 6 year-old
children. The sample of the study comprised 77 children selected randomly from state run primary schools from various socioeconomic
levels in Ankara. The experiment group consisted of 22 children, the placebo group of 23 children and the control group of
32 children. The experiment group received an aesthetic education program, the placebo group was offered a placebo education
and the control group did not take any education. The Taylor–Helmstadter Pair Comparison Scale of Aesthetic Judgment was used
to measure the aesthetic judgments of children. The findings of the study show that there is a significant difference in the
aesthetic judgments of male children in the experiment group who received aesthetic education (p < .05). Moreover, it found that the educational and socioeconomic levels of parents did not have any effects on the aesthetic
judgments of children (p > .05). 相似文献

Investigation of university students’ self-acceptance and learned resourcefulness: a longitudinal study 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Self-acceptance and learned resourcefulness of university students are important concepts in coping with the environmental
and developmental stressors and in the development of healthy personality. In this study, university students’ self acceptance
and learned resourcefulness levels were investigated longitudinally. 198 university students’ self acceptance and learned
resourcefulness scores were collected by Self Acceptance Scale and Rosenbaum’s Self-Control Scale in their first and eighth
semesters. The findings revealed that in general, the students’ self-acceptance level increased significantly in the 4-year
period. With respect to gender, the self-acceptance level of female students was found to increase during their university
education, while no significant difference was observed in that of male students. Moreover, there was no change in the level
of their learned resourcefulness in the 4-year period in terms of gender. As a result, it is understood that university life
includes significant experiences for students’ self-acceptance, especially for female students, and that university life does
not cause any significant increase in the level of learned resourcefulness. Therefore, there is a great need for programs
that will increase the resourcefulness levels of university students during their university lives. 相似文献

The quality of teacher education, in general, is affected from a number of variables such as physical environment of the institutions,
instructor quality, the curriculum implemented, administrative support, and others. As the input of the system, the perspectives
of the students on those variables also influence the direction and the quality of the education taking place in the colleges
of education. Regarding this, the purpose of the present study is to identify and compare the perspectives of fourth-year
English Language Teaching students on the physical environment, human resources, and the program of three ELT departments
at three different state universities. As part of the survey research design, the questionnaire was administered to totally
278 prospective English Teachers from the ELT departments at state universities in Ankara. The results of the study, unlike
the past research on the issue, presented that the prospective English teachers had positive views on the instructors and
program generally; however, they stated problems on the physical environment of their departments. Moreover, there were significant
differences in students’ views on the physical environment, resources, and its sub-dimensions. The students from the institution,
which was renovated before the study, had more positive views on their department than the others. The results suggested it
might be useful to reevaluate and reconsider the current conditions of the English language teacher education in relation
to the departments’ human resources, program and especially the physical environment. 相似文献

In the past, distance education was used as a method to meet the educational needs of citizens with limited options to attend an institution of higher education. Nowadays, it has become irreplaceable in higher education thanks to developments in instructional technology. But the question of why students choose distance education is still important. The purpose of this study was to determine Turkish students’ reasons for choosing distance education and to investigate how these reasons differ depending on their financial circumstances. The author used a Chi squared Automatic Interaction Detector (CHAID) analysis to determine 18,856 Turkish students’ reasons for choosing distance education. Results of the research revealed that Turkish students chose distance education not because of geographical limitations, family-related problems or economic difficulties, but for such reasons as already being engaged in their profession, increasing their knowledge, and seeking promotion to a better position. 相似文献

This study explored the factors that facilitate and complicate the higher education process for students with visual impairments (VI). The participants were six university students with VI and eight academics/faculty members who instruct these students together with other students. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and were analysed using content analysis methods. The students with VI stated that they face barriers related to lack of materials, difficulty obtaining lecture notes, poor academic support, reader-related problems, insufficient library sources, and access to and within the university. Positive facilitators reported by the students were mainly related to personal factors, as well as peer and academic support. The academics demonstrated limited awareness of the barriers faced by students with VI, and the academic support available to these students was found to be insufficient as well. The results indicate that there are considerable barriers to university education for students with VI. 相似文献
