民办高校高等数学与大学物理知识融合策略研究

本文以民办高校基础课程教学为例,深入探讨如何加强高等数学和大学物理知识的融合问题。在大学物理教学的第一堂课中,教师一般都会强调两点:第一点,大学物理课程与中学物理课程内容有一定重叠,但大学物理课程更注重挖掘每个知识点的来源和演绎过程,而中学物理更注重学生对知识点运用能力的培养;第二点,大学物理课程中涉及到的例题和习题,多数都需要利用高等数学知识来解决,因此,打好高等数学的基础是学好大学物理的关键。在大学物理教学中,微积分得到了最为广泛的应用,用微积分求解物理问题,是大学物理教学中的难点和重点。除此之外,矢量代数、概率统计等方法都得到了广泛的应用。但由于数学老师和物理老师的沟通甚少,导致部分内容的表述不一致,使学生在运用数学知识解决物理问题时,感到无从下手,不能将两门课程的知识融会贯通。针对这一现状,本文首先阐明了两门课程的性质是不同的;然后,结合民办高校基础课教学现状,阐述了两门课程在教学中缺乏衔接的原因;最后,提出了两门课程如何相互融合的策略。

运用导数法巧解大学物理习题

<正>《大学物理》是理工科非物理学专业大学生的必修课程之一,我校将该课程的教学安排在大学阶段的第一年第二学期,此时高等数学已学完导数部分.大学物理和中学物理知识体系之间虽有连续性,但也存在一定的跨越.在大学物理学习过程中,大一新生往往还习惯于用高中解题的方法求解大学物理习题,这样不但容易把物理问题弄混,而且不利于掌握物理概念的数学表述,从而疏远高等数学和物理之间的联系.因此,对于求解大学物理习题来说,能熟练用好高等数学知识真

Learning styles of design students and the relationship of academic performance and gender in design education

The study focuses on design education using Experiential Learning Theory (ELT) and explores the effects of learning styles and gender on the performance scores of freshman design students in three successive academic years. Findings indicate that the distribution of design students through learning style type preference was more concentrated in assimilating and converging groups. Further study indicates that the first and third groups were found to be more balancing while the second group being mostly a southerner. The learning style preferences did not significantly differ by gender in all three groups. Although there is no consistency in all three groups, results indicate that the performance scores of males were higher in technology-based courses, whereas scores of females were higher in artistic and fundamental courses and in the semester academic performance scores (GPA). Also, it was found that the performance scores of converging and diverging students differed significantly in favor of converging students only in design courses. In design education, instructors should provide a strategy that is relevant to the style of each learner in design studio process.     

The role of response biases in the relationship between students’ perceptions of their courses and their approaches to studying in higher education

Questionnaire surveys have found a strong relationship between students’ perceptions of their courses and their approaches to studying, but this might result from the operation of response biases. Responses to the Course Experience Questionnaire and the Revised Approaches to Studying Inventory from 2137 students taking seven courses by distance learning were reanalysed. Both acquiescent responding and extreme responding were found to be consistent traits within individual students between the two instruments. When these were statistically controlled, the overlap in variance between the students’ scores on the two instruments was reduced from 45.3% to 31.9%, and the variation in the students’ course marks explained by their scores on the two instruments was reduced from 21.8% to 18.9%. Nevertheless, the relationship between the two sets of scores remained the same: students who rated their course positively were more likely to show desirable approaches to studying and less likely to show undesirable approaches.     

Beyond English language proficiency scores: understanding the academic performance of international undergraduate students during the first year of study

ABSTRACT

Past research into the relationship between English proficiency test (EPT) scores and score profiles, such as the IELTS and the TOEFL, has shown that there is not always a clear relationship between those scores and students’ subsequent academic achievement. Information about students’ academic self-concept (ASC) may provide additional information that helps predict future academic success. Research has consistently shown a positive relationship between students’ ASC and subsequent academic achievement and educational attainment in both school and higher education settings. The purpose of the current study was to examine the relationship between the academic performance of international students and their language proficiency and academic self-concept as well as other characteristics related to academic success. The study focused on first year international students in undergraduate business programs at an English-medium university in Canada. The following information was collected about the student participants: grades in degree program courses, annual GPA, and EPT scores (including subscores). In addition, students completed an academic self-concept scale. To obtain additional information about success in first-year business courses, instructors in two required courses were interviewed about the academic and language requirements in their courses and the profile of successful students. Correlations between the students’ course grades, GPA, EPT scores, and ASC score were calculated. The instructor interviews were analyzed using a content analysis procedure. The findings from all data sources were triangulated and show that language ability, ASC, and other factors impact academic success during the first year in a business program. The implications of these findings are discussed.     

外语阅读焦虑与阅读成绩的关系

为了研究外语阅读焦虑与阅读成绩的关系,利用外语阅读焦虑量表,对随机抽查的150名英语专业的大学生进行测试,并就阅读焦虑与阅读课程成绩和阅读理解成绩进行研究。结果表明：同非英语专业学生一样,英语专业学生普遍存在英语阅读焦虑;英语阅读焦虑与英语阅读学业成绩及阅读理解回顾成绩之间存在显著性负相关,阅读焦虑与阅读理解多项选择成绩之间没有显著性负相关关系。     

The Value of Amount of Tardiness and Absence for Direct and Differential Prediction of Academic Success

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships among nine measures of attitude toward quantitative concepts and verbal and quantitative aptitude. Subjects were 353 graduate students enrolled in educational research courses. The attitude measures consisted of nine factor scores drawn from a seman tic differential instrument; the aptitude measures were the Graduate Record Examination Verbal and Quantitative scores. Canonical correlation was used to relate the attitude to the aptitude measures. Two significant canonical variates were obtained. The first showed a moderate relationship between positive attitudes toward quantitative concepts and high quantitative aptitude. The second indicated a slight relationship between negative attitudes toward quantitative concepts and high verbal aptitude.     

What's in a teacher test? Assessing the relationship between teacher licensure test scores and student STEM achievement and course-taking

We investigate the relationship between teacher licensure test scores and student test achievement and high school course-taking. We focus on three subject/grade combinations—middle school math, ninth-grade algebra and geometry, and ninth-grade biology—and find evidence that a teacher's basic skills test scores are modestly predictive of student achievement in middle school math and highly predictive of student achievement in high school biology. A teacher's subject-specific licensure test scores are a consistent and statistically significant predictor of student achievement only in high school biology. Finally, we find little evidence that students assigned to middle school teachers with higher basic-skills test scores are more likely to take advanced math and science courses in high school.

Relationship of Student Undergraduate Achievement and Personality Characteristics in a Total Web-Based Environment: An Empirical Study

Web‐based education is a popular format for the delivery of college courses. Research has shown that it may not be the best form of education for all students. Today, many students (and student advisors) face a choice in course delivery format (i.e., Web‐based or more traditional classroom courses). This research study examines the relationship between student personality characteristics and their achievement scores as a means of identifying predictors of academic success in an undergraduate business program using Web‐based education. The results of the study show that four basic personality characteristics are highly correlated to student achievement in Web‐based courses. Use of these personality characteristics as variables in a regression model is shown to be a highly accurate predictive tool to aid students in the decision as to whether to take a particular Web‐based course format or a more traditional classroom course.     

The relationships between the motivational beliefs,course experiences and achievement among postgraduate students in Pakistan

While there is considerable literature concerning the relationship between student motivation and achievement, few studies have examined the relationship between student motivation, course experiences and academic achievement at the postgraduate level. This paper is based on the findings of the initial correlation analysis of the relationship between motivational beliefs and course experiences of 368 postgraduate students in five different subject areas enrolled in day and afternoon classes at a highly-ranked public university in Pakistan. A questionnaire was developed using scales from the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire and the Course Experiences Questionnaire to measure the motivational beliefs and course experiences of students. Academic achievement was measured using the achievement score in the courses in which the data were collected. The results of the study indicated that students' achievement scores were positively correlated with their self-efficacy for learning and negatively correlated with test anxiety, whereas the course-experience factor learning community was significantly correlated with achievement scores. Significant correlations were also found among almost all motivational beliefs and course experience factors.
