教育行动研究解析

在教师教育领域,教育行动研究正在逐步成为实现教师专业化发展的重要途径。行动研究就是研究的类型之一,是一种可以用来帮助实践者在不同的工作场所提高专业实践的研究形式。行动研究在具备其他研究应有的特征的同时,还有不同于其他研究的特征。     

教育行动研究的方法论分析

教育行动研究的“计划一行动一观察一反思”循环圈,体现着后现代主义从错误中学习,在变革中前进的历史理性。但它与体现逻辑理性的实验研究方法并非处于二元对立中,而是被一条“联结链”联结起来,成为量一质研究连续体上紧密相靠的伙伴。     

教育行动研究的构思与设计

在知识经济时代的今天,教师成为行动研究者的观念已广为流传,教育行动研究是培养科研型教师或教师在职培训的群众性研究范式。本文根据行动研究的特点和方法,着重阿述一个有意义合理的行动研究计划的几个主要环节,以期为教育行动研究者提供一个研究的理论框架。     

论教育行动研究的功能

行动研究是一种研究方式,它是为解决实际问题并在实际教学过程中展开的研究,需要研究者参与研究结果的执行或行动者直接参与研究活动,是研究者和行动者相互合作甚至是和二为一的研究活动。同时,它是理论研究和教学实践相结合的方式之一,有利于克服近代教学所具有的研究与实践严重脱节、甚至形成“两张皮”状态的现象。它不仅使研究活动从研究科学的塔尖走入日常教学中,也使教学活动从简单的重复式活动变成主动出击、富有创造性的劳动,并且改变着教学活动和研究活动的性质,对教学活动的改革起着举足轻重的作用。 一、行动研究的类型…     

论教育的行动研究

本文从反思我国教育研究的现状入手，指出我国教育研究存在理论与实践相脱离与在应用客观化、科学化范式上的有限性这两个突出问题，为此，行动研究的引入成为教育科研的必然趋势。通过分析行动研究的内涵，文章认为行动研究在研究主体、研究过程和研究目的上不同于以往的教育研究，它使教师成为研究者，研究成为教师与研究者之间合作、对话和理解的过程，研究目的在于提高行动的质量。为此，它给现代教育教学研究带来了诸多启示。     

教育行动研究的过程分析

营造积极的生活与工作环境以增进教师求真求进的专业精神,进而唤起并培育教师的主动性与创造性是近年来教师教育的核心,教育行动研究是教师通过扩权增能的过程实现上述目的的重要思想和方法。然而,非常缺乏理论联系实践的对教育行动研究过程的探讨。本研究把教育行动研究过程概括为计划、实施、资料收集和反思四个环节,并结合实践经验较为系统地探讨了四个环节的内涵及其之间的互动关系。     

论教育的行动研究

我国的教育研究存在着片面追求“一般知识”和“普遍规律”、理论与实践相脱离等问题。行动研究的引入将有利于我国教育研究的发展与繁荣。行动研究在研究主体、研究过程和研究目的上与以往的教育研究不同,它使教师成为研究,使教育研究成为一种教育理论工作与教师之间相互合作、平等对话和共同促进的过程,一种改善教师教育行为和提高教育实践活动质量的过程。     

教育行动研究的效度问题

:教育行动研究是教育理论和教育实践结合的有效途径 ,效度则是决定这种结合的程度的主要因素。基于不同理论基础的研究效度具有不同的特点 ,教育行动研究的效度既不能以量化研究的效度来衡量 ,也不完全等同于质化研究的效度 ,而要从教育行动研究的目的和过程来把握     

教育行动研究的效度问题

一、问题的提出当今教育研究领域中教育行动研究的取向越来越明显,世界范围内的体现教育行动研究精神的校本课程开发、校本师资培训、教师即研究者、校本管理等自下而上的、理论联系实验的教育改革运动蓬勃展开,这种致力于解决实际问题的教育行动研究被许多研究者接受和提倡。教育行动研究是教育理论和实践结合的最佳途径,通过促进理论和实践的双向努力,使教育理论主动寻找实践作为基础;实践也主动寻找理论作为指导,进而反思和批判理论,把教育理论和实践有机地结合起来。     

Benefits of collaborative action research for the beginning teacher

Beginning teachers are confronted with many issues as they begin their teaching careers, issues, such as classroom management, individual differences, behaviour problems, dealing with parents, and so on. Many beginning teachers take professional development seminars in an attempt to deal with these and other issues. Professional development seminars, however, may not address the specific issues faced by beginning teachers but rather focus on approaches that are more global. In this paper, we argue that the best approach to professional development is through a collaborative action research model. By extending the partnerships established between student teachers, mentor teachers and university supervisors during student teaching into the beginning teachers' career, many of the everyday problems can be confronted within a supportive network. Several recommendations are offered for beginning and maintaining productive CAR relationships.     

行动研究学在商务英语教学中的应用

随着我国经济的发展,商务英语人才需求越来越大,本文从介绍行动研究的定义出发,结合商务英语教学研究,旨在建立一种互动的、以发展学生语言能力为宗旨的现代化教学模式。教学行动研究是解决教学与研究领域脱节问题的手段之一,它能使教师在教学实践中及教学研究过程中,不断发现问题、解决问题、反思问题,从而制订有效的教学方案,以解决教学中的实际问题。     

行动研究在大学英语教学中的应用

教学行动研究是近年来国外发展起来的一种教学理论研究方法,它是能够解决教学与研究领域脱节的问题,使教学行为向着更专业、更系统的方向发展。本文作者通过英语课堂教学中所做的教学行动研究,反思教学效果,探讨这种研究方法在提高教学效果中的实践意义。     

Insider action research doctorates: Generating actionable knowledge

The aim of this article is to contribute to understanding of the issue raised when executives do action research in their own organizations for doctorates. There are a number of significant challenges for those executives considering action research in their own organization, which are explored under the headings of, preunderstanding, role duality and organizational politics. The article reflects on the executive action research doctorate in terms of the engagement of the individual manager–researcher in first person inquiry, the collaborative activities with others in second person inquiry and the third person contribution of actionable knowledge to the practitioner and academic communities.     

Single-subject designs and action research in the K-12 setting

Inasmuch as educational research is concerned with individual student assessment and development, it is surprising that single-subject designs are not more readily utilized in classroom-based action research. The purpose of this article is to emphasize benefits of single-subject research in the K-12 setting, given that teachers teach and assess individual students, the availability of individual student data, the uniqueness of all students' needs, and the ease with which data can be summarized and analyzed. A basic framework for conducting single-subject research is provided with the use of examples and discussion.     

论教师的教育研究

在现代社会发展和教育改革发展的过程中，教师应当而且必须成为研究者，这不仅有利于教育教学质量的提高，更有利于教师的专业成长，教师的教育研究有自身的特性，属行动研究，要求教师通过自主反思意识的确立，采用多种方法研究和解决自身实践中遇到的困难和问题。     

Using images to promote reflection: an action research study in Zambia and Tanzania

This paper focuses on the use of images to promote reflection and analysis of inclusive practices. The image-based work was set in the context of a two-year action research study, which took place in Tanzania and Zambia, 2001–2003, in collaboration with researchers from the Enabling Education Network (EENET), based at the University of Manchester's School of Education. This study, entitled, 'Understanding Community Initiatives to Improve Access to Education' involved the use of a wide range of processes to promote reflection, analysis and documentation, including a range of different types of images. We reflect here on the learning, which took place among the researchers in all three countries in using images as a basis for reflection on inclusive education.     

基于项目的商务英语写作教学改革行动研究

针对商务英语写作教学中存在教学内容分裂独立、缺乏联系以及知识获取和运用缺乏真实情境依托这两大问题,设计项目化教学改革方案,在2012级至2015级商务英语专业学生中进行行动研究,研究为期四年。研究结果发现,项目化学习能够有效解决上述问题,而且能够帮助学生在获取知识的同时提升各项软技能;同时,研究还发现基于项目的学习与课堂教学存在一定矛盾,由此引发的问题有待进一步研究。     

The role of action research in the development of learning networks for entrepreneurs

Developing sustainable learning networks for entrepreneurs is the core objective of the Sustainable Learning Networks in Ireland and Wales (SLNIW) project. One research team drawn from the Centre for Enterprise Development and Regional Economy at Waterford Institute of Technology and the School of Management and Business from Aberystwyth University has contributed to the understanding of how to create sustainable business learning networks for entrepreneurs. The research findings are attributed to action research by the conduction of two separate cycles in the forum of research projects. The first cycle, called Female Entrepreneurs in Ireland and Wales, produced findings that were reflected on and investigated further by the research team through the establishment of the second cycle named SLNIW. This paper discusses the two action research cycles through the action sets of planning, action, observing and reflecting and the contribution of the development of understanding and practice of networking for entrepreneurs through the production of guidelines for establishing sustainable learning networks.
