As the technology infrastructure of schools expands, a common concern has been the underutilization of computers and other technologies in the classroom. Teachers are often blamed for failing to integrate technology into their teaching, giving such reasons as lack of time, training, equipment, and support. However, it has been suggested that these are not the “real” reasons technology is underutilized; instead, it is argued that teachers’ core values about teaching and learning are the primary obstacles to successful technology integration (e.g., Cuban, 2001). Implications for professional development are addressed in relation to these barriers to classroom technology use and the developmental pattern of teachers’ technology integration. 相似文献

This paper addresses two major and potentially conflicting movements: the importance of diversity as both a conceptual and political issue and the rise of the evidence-based practice movement in education. This tension is particularly important when evaluating and reporting universal interventions because of their intended applicability across diverse groups of children and adolescents. This study contributes to this discussion through an analysis of published school-based universal social and emotional learning (SEL) intervention evaluations in terms of their theoretical and empirical attention to student diversity characteristics. We defined student diversity in terms of five characteristics: gender, race/ethnicity, SES, disability status, and sexual orientation/gender identity. We assessed how and when demographic characteristics were reported, how these characteristics were analyzed as moderators of program outcomes, and how differential effects based on diversity were incorporated into reported intervention generalizability discussions. Results showed that diversity characteristics were inconsistently reported across articles. Most studies did not test for moderating effects, but those that did found inconsistent effects across diversity characteristics. Further, conceptual and/or empirical support for conducting the moderation analyses was often not provided or sufficiently supported by previous literature or a hypothesis. This research highlights the need for a more nuanced understanding of how SEL program effects may be moderated by student demographic characteristics and suggests caution about the generalizability of the reviewed SEL programs across diverse groups of children and adolescents. 相似文献

This study explored the organizational nature of the professional learning environments of teachers, administrators, and other
peer professionals in schools. A conceptual model of the organizational structure and effects of instructional supervisory
practices was developed to guide the empirical investigation. The model is based on an organizational conception of instructional
supervision in which the variety of supervisory behaviors, interactions, and decision making engaged in by school personnel
contributes to a unique organizational/supervisory (O/S) climate infusing a school's professional learning environment. Six
meaningful dimensions of O/S climate were empirically derived. Climate variable linkages to various indices of school effectiveness
were posited and explored using quantitative and qualitative methods. The study's qualitative findings revealed additional
school-level, organizational context factors which further explicated the O/S climate and professional learning environment
constructs and quantitative supervisory climate/effectiveness linkages identified in the study's original conceptual model.

This study explores how activities developed by science experts in partnership with middle school teachers were employed and
interpreted. The goals of this partnership were to (a) help the science teacher meet earth science content standards in new
ways, (b) expose students to ‘real world’ experiences outside their school setting, and (c) positively impact teacher practice
by providing a program to be used as a catalyst for future learning. Over 300 sixth graders mostly underrepresented science
students attended activities at an aquarium serving an urban West Coast urban context. Science teachers, non-science teachers,
scientists, and volunteers were all engaged in pre-trip instruction, professional development opportunities, and follow-up
activities as this partnership effort explored ways to enhance local literacy initiatives across the curriculum. Results suggest
that teacher beliefs about informal education impacted their view and participation in the program and the level of submersion
of teachers in collaboration strongly affects the ability to serve underrepresented students on informal excursions. Implications
for teacher education and outreach are discussed. 相似文献

Preparing high school students to skillfully and successfully navigate the pathway to college is a growing concern among researchers
and policymakers. This issue has raised important questions about what urban school districts can do to build capacity among
their high schools to guide students and families toward successful college transitions. This analysis examines how district-level
policies impacted the capacity of two urban high schools to establish and maintain college counseling strategies that effectively
prepare students to manage the transition to college. Drawing upon concepts from institutional theory, the analysis illustrates
how pressures from urban policy environments can threaten the viability of a college counseling strategy that has strong positive
implications for urban high school students. 相似文献

Young adolescents’ low scores on the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) force the question of whether these students will be ready for college in four years. Our efforts to build a college-going culture emphasize strengthening students’ writing skills by using preservice teachers to lead writing marathons for at-risk middle school students on university visits. Structured interviews, surveys, and written reflections reveal that what students write about changes with age, their motivation to write varies, and their college aspirations and perceptions become more positive after completing several annual writing marathons on a college campus. The writing marathon structure makes the college visit truly meaningful to students, and it provides a compelling incentive to write by supporting characteristics of middle school students, as defined by the National Middle School Association (National Middle School Association [NMSA] 2003). The marathon model focuses on four key elements: setting, timing, small groups, and writers’ level of commitment. 相似文献

The common assessment framework (CAF) and lead professional (LP) working are being introduced into all local authorities in the next 2 years as part of the Every Child Matters agenda. This article describes some elements of an evaluation of 12 pilot trials. It was found that schools and pastoral staff in particular played a major part in the trials. The majority of the research participants thought that this was a worthwhile initiative and examples were collected of successful implementation of the scheme. However, issues of missing skills, lack of time and limited practical support for staff in schools were highlighted. It is suggested that these issues may be magnified in the full-scale implementation of CAF and LP work. Considerable effort by pastoral staff and education managers will be required if this 'good idea' is to deliver improved outcomes for children in need. 相似文献

This paper provides a detailed analysis of student teachers’ lay theories of teaching, and teaching identities, and assesses their implications for student teachers’ and teachers’ professional development. Understanding the critically formative influences in student teachers’ lives and the extent to which these are reinforced, reproduced and recast in and through student teachers’ lay theories has major significance for initial teacher education and ongoing professional development of teachers. The paper draws together the threads of this analysis around issues of teaching identities, their formation, continuity, tenacity and openness to change and assesses, through a postmodern lens, their implications for professional development of student teachers, beginning teachers and experienced professionals. 相似文献

Currently the main approach in responding to bullying in schools is to focus on undesired behaviours and to apply sanctions.
This approach is often ineffective as well as failing to address the needs of children as persons as distinct from the behaviour
they produce. A proposed alternative approach is to inquire into the motivation of children who bully and to identify the
desires that bullying behaviour seeks to satisfy. This paper provides a critique of the conception of bullying as located
in the desire to hurt others, as proposed by Tattum and Tattum (1992). It examines a range of desires, as inferred from the reasons schoolchildren give for bullying others, that may, under some
circumstances, lead them to engage in bullying. Finally, it considers how a primary focus on children’s desires rather than
on their behaviour, may result in more effective and humane methods of dealing with the problem of bullying in schools. 相似文献

The balance of empirical research on college men is a portrait of their maladaptive and antisocial attitudes and behaviors. Studies have demonstrated the correlation between college men's problematic behavior and adherence to gender role traditionalism. Educators have few composites of men's prosocial behavior nor the masculine ideology that accompanies it.This article is based, in part, on a study where I explored college men's prosocial behaviors through their engagement in an educationally purposeful activity that has been operationally defined in the literature: diversity education (DE). DE was defined as opportunities to engage meaningfully with diversity through coursework or purposeful cross-culture interactions in pursuit of educational outcomes.Using a basic interpretive qualitative methodology, I addressed the following research question: How do college men who have been engaged in diversity education understand and perform masculinity? Themes derived using the constant comparative method included (a) the persistence of hegemonic masculine ideology and (b) experiences of gender socialization. Findings confirmed other studies that demonstrated the influence of hegemonic masculine ideology on college men (Davis, 2002; Edwards, 2007; Harris, 2006). This study adds to the literature by ascertaining how hegemonic masculine ideology may permeate the diversity classroom or workshop, creating dynamics that social justice educators must consider when designing effective learning environments. 相似文献

Professional Culture and Professional Development in Jewish Schools: Teachers' Perceptions and Experiences 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

In this article, we report a study of professional culture and professional development in Jewish schools based on surveys of teachers and other staff and interviews with principals. We first introduce three key constructs: professional culture, professional development, and professional learning communities. We then describe research that has identified features of each that support teacher learning. With this background in mind, we compare the current realities in Jewish schools as gleaned through the survey with typical public schools and with the features of schools identified in the literature as supportive of teacher learning and collegiality. Finally, we suggest the next steps that might be taken to improve Jewish schools as settings in which teacher growth and learning flourish. 相似文献
