Negotiating the transition to middle school: the role of self-regulatory processes

The present research examined the role of maladaptive self-regulatory beliefs as vulnerability factors for academic and emotional difficulties during the transition to middle school. A short-term longitudinal design was employed to follow two groups of early adolescents: 187 adolescents who experienced a school transition between the fifth and sixth grades, and 142 adolescents who did not experience a school transition between the fifth and sixth grades. Adolescents completed measures of perceptions of academic control and importance of academic success, experience of chronic academic strain, daily school hassles, and depressive symptoms. Teachers reported on students' academic engagement, including levels of helpless behavior, effort, and academic performance. Consistent with the proposed model of self-regulation, maladaptive self-regulatory beliefs (i.e., decreased perceptions of academic control and importance) predicted individual differences in perceived school-related stress and depressive symptoms over the course of the middle school transition, but were not associated with academic and emotional difficulties in adolescents who remained in a stable school environment. Moreover, a self-regulatory sequence was identified proceeding from maladaptive self-regulatory beliefs, to academic disengagement, to enhanced perceptions of school-related stress, to depressive symptoms. This study bridges prior theory and research concerning the psychological impact of normative developmental transitions, the developmental context of depression, and the associations among self-regulatory beliefs, achievement-related behavior, and emotional experience.     

The socioemotional adjustment of adolescents with LD in the kibbutz during high school transition periods

This study examined several aspects of the socioemotional experiences (i.e., loneliness, social skills, reciprocal friendship, reciprocal rejection, and social status) of adolescents with and without learning disabilities in an Israeli kibbutz environment during school transition periods. The sample consisted of 106 students with learning disabilities (LD; 74 boys and 32 girls) and 101 students without learning disabilities (NLD; 62 boys and 39 girls) drawn from seventh grade (i.e., early adolescence) and ninth grade (i.e., middle adolescence). The results revealed that seventh- and ninth-grade adolescents with LD received more social peer rejection than did NLD group adolescents, and students with LD were judged by their teachers to exhibit lower social skills and higher behavioral problems than their classmates. No significant group differences were found on loneliness, but an age-related increase in loneliness feelings was noted, which was independent from group membership and gender. Gender differences on self-report, peer ratings, and teachers' ratings on social measures in favor of girls were demonstrated. The discussion focuses on the potential impact of school transitions and of the developmental environment provided in the kibbutz on adolescents' socioemotional functioning and adjustment.

Settling In: Facilitating the transition to an inclusive middle school for students with mild disabilities

The present qualitative study examined the experiences of nine students with mild disabilities during their first year in an inclusive middle school in a Midwestern state of the United States (US). Data were gathered through interviews with students, teachers, and parents; classroom observations; and document analysis. Following the data analysis, three themes were identified: how the demands of navigating a new environment increased students’ anxiety; how students satisfied their need for belonging; and how students’ perceptions of school influenced their attitude towards help. Suggestions for facilitating school transitions for early adolescents with mild disabilities are provided.     

浅议高中生物学教学与初中课程的衔接

浙江省自1993年开始,将生物学与物理、化学、地理等学科综合,在初中开设自然科学课程。自2003年起,四门学科进一步整合,开设科学课程。根据现行高中课程标准,高一年级不设生物学课。高二年级开始开设生物学课,高三为选修课。随着近几年教育体制的改革,大部分地区将初中、高中分校而设。初中与高中教师之间缺乏交流,高中老师不太清楚初中的教学流程及教学方法,很易造成教学上脱节的现象。笔者曾任教初中自然科学,现从事高二生物学教学,深感如何处理好高二生物学教学与初中课程的衔接,从而使高二学生能尽快适应新的学习模式,是每个高二生物学教师都应重视的问题。

English language learners with reading-related LD: linking data from multiple sources to make eligibility determinations

Results are reported for an exploratory study of eligibility decisions made for 21 Spanish-speaking English language learners (ELLs) with learning disabilities (LD) and no secondary disabilities who received special education support in reading. Eligibility determinations by an expert panel resulted in decisions that differed significantly from those of school multidisciplinary teams. The panel agreed that some students appeared to have reading-related LD (n = 5) but also identified students that they believed had disabilities, but not necessarily reading-related LD (n = 6). Another group of students (n = 10) had learning problems that the panel believed could be attributed to factors other than LD or for whom substantive additional data would be required to validate eligibility. Issues associated with referral, assessment, and eligibility determinations for ELLs are discussed, and recommendations for improving practice are offered, with an emphasis on the importance of linking data from multiple sources when deciding whether ELLs qualify for special education.     

对中学化学教育和教学改革的启示——<化学家想知道什么>一文读后感

1 什么是化学学科的大问题 世界著名学术期刊Nature的顾问编委Philip Ball在对多位世界著名化学家就什么是化学学科的大问题进行专题访谈后,撰写了题为化学家想知道什么(What chemists want to know)的专论[1,3].设问的中心议题是:就绝大多数科学技术领域而言,化学已经成为具有关键作用的学科之一,是否意味着它仅仅是服务于一切需要借助于化学的科学技术的工具之一?学科本身是否还存在着某些重要问题有待于继续深入和突破?从而得出了公众对化学作为一门基础自然科学的认同程度和高校化学系生源质量下降均与此有关的结论.该文所论及的问题和学者们的真知灼见,对于新世纪化学学科的建设、发展以及化学教育的改革都有参考价值.     

中小学生意外伤害事故的预防与处理研究

中小学生在校发生意外伤害事故,包括身体伤害和精神伤害两种,统称人身伤害事故,根据其发生的时间、地点,又可分为教学事故和非教学事故,在处理上应当给予必要的医疗急救处理和责任追究处理。不同类型的事故要求从不同角度采取预防措施。学生在校学习期间,学校、教师具有监督学生行为,保障其身心安全、健康的责任。

Self-determination perceptions and behaviors of diverse students with LD during the transition planning process

Transition models include components of student self-determination during transition planning meetings. Researchers acknowledge that cultural identity may influence both transition decisions and self-determination strategies. Yet the appropriateness of these approaches for culturally and linguistically diverse students with learning disabilities (LD) remains unknown. This study examined self-determination perceptions and behaviors of European American, African American, and Hispanic American male adolescents with LD. Data were collected during focus group and individual interviews, observations, and document reviews. Qualitative data analysis provided information about students' behaviors and perceptions during postsecondary transition planning. The findings indicated that differences within this group of diverse participants were subtle. Students identified themselves and family members--rather than teachers--as key players in transition planning. Students perceived that self-determination efforts were thwarted in school contexts, whereas self-determination opportunities in home contexts were more accessible and productive.
