(a) Cooperation among faculty members in university or college teacher education programmes to ensure consistency, continuity and a common set of goals for pre‐service teacher education. Some programmes have begun to emphasise the acquisition of competence in the use of cooperative learning methods.
-
(b) Cooperation between universities and schools to enable novice and experienced teachers to practise cooperative learning in the classroom.
-
(c) Cooperation among teachers in given schools to provide mutual support and assistance to maintain the long‐term use of cooperative learning.
Various programmes and projects reported in the relevant literature that have implemented these ideas are surveyed and discussed in this paper. 相似文献

The traditional role of universities throughout the world has always been to:
-
safeguard and preserve knowledge
-
impart and disseminate knowledge
-
expand the frontiers of knowledge
To this list was recently added a fourth dimension, which, implicitely, has always existed, namely:
-
to contribute to the cultural, social and economic development of society
-
general information on the education system in Rumania
-
teacher training in the utilization of educational media
-
teacher training with a view to the improvement of teaching‐learning systems
-
teacher training in the new information and communication technologies
-
creation of one system of higher education with no distinction between university and higher vocational training;
-
introduction of as large a range of courses as possible;
-
inclusion of student research only where the study programme requires it;
-
introduction of a more general type of higher education in addition, to courses providing students with specific professional qualifications.
-
transfer of a number of degrees and courses from the Old to the New University and as well as the creation of new courses and degrees in the New University;
-
changes in the administrative structures of higher education institutions (Old and New University)
-
introduction of a worker‐student scheme for university entry;
-
changes in the distribution of authority on higher education.
The introduction of the reform is regulated by the Education (Amendment) Act, 1978. Outlined below are the main elements of this reform as they are introduced in the Act, with a special emphasis on the new “worker‐student scheme for university admission” 相似文献

? Social cohesion, democratic values, and national identity are emphasized the most in the civics curriculum.
-
? The democratic values promoted in the traditional period are used as a means to distinguish democratic Taiwan from totalitarian Communist China.
-
? Self cultivation is less emphasized than in the traditional period.
-
? National identity is promoted less as a fundamental value than in traditional civics education.
-
? Because of social and environmental change, the new civics education integrates several Western values into the curriculum.

second, hopes and expectations towards various institutions connected with early childhood education in a new political and social situation and in the time of implementation of free market rules which caused unfavourable phenomena in early childhood education, eg. closures of settings and increase of fees paid by parents who take children away for financial reasons,
-
finally, I present my own image of early childhood setting as an institution supporting parents in fulfilling their educational and care duties and involving them in the growth process of a child.

The Report of this Working Group is formed by three parts.
Chapter 2 explores the horizon of evaluation, and briefly summarizes evaluation mandate, focus and procedures in the light of quality and quality assurance, accreditation, responsibility, with particular reference to higher education.
Chapter 3 explores the ideas from a number of European evaluation models for higher education, and shows that their contents can be read in the frame of four fundamental “aspects” or “dimensions” of quality:
-
–?Requirements, objectives
-
–?Teaching, learning, assessment
-
–?Learning resources
-
–?Monitoring, analysis, improvement
Chapter 4 underlines that a Programme should be evaluated on the basis of its ability to put into effect a policy focusing—clearly and distinctly—on the external and internal efficacy of the learning process: specify worthwhile learning goals and enable most students to achieve the established objectives. The set of “aspects” examined in Chapter 3 is expanded into a minimum set of “factors”, that the Programme should address in a stable manner before it is submitted to an external evaluation.
-
- it has to meet a growing demand for food in a sustainable way,
-
- the international competition is increasing,
-
- the increase in labour productivity is decreasing the employment opportunities in agriculture,
-
- agricultural research is offering many new opportunities to increase productivity,
-
- government price support for agricultural products in industrial countries is decreasing.
-
- the knowledge and capabilities of farmers has become a major factor in their ability to compete in national and international markets,
-
- advice is not only needed on the adoption of new technologies, but also on many other decisions farmers have to make, such as the choice of their farming system and the decision whether or not to earn an income from outside agriculture,
-
- this requires a change in extension methods and in the information sources extension agents use,
-
- agricultural development demands painful changes in the way of farming and of living for many farm families. It is a challenge for extension agencies to help farm families to realise this,
-
- a major task for leaders of extension organisations is to manage a process of change in agricultural extension. Often the role extension has to play in agricultural development can not be performed by one extension organisation, but only by a pluralistic extension system.

To what extent is RtI evident in the professional literature of educator groups (teachers, administrators, and teacher educators) who will be responsible for implementing these school practices?
-
What is the nature of the published literature (concept papers, assessment practices, instructional practices, and research) on RtI?
-
identify and understand the theoretical and practical needs of kindergarten teachers with regard to ICT education;
-
establish plans for the training of educators, in the application of ICT;
-
develop interactive learning materials for educators in order to support the established plans for continuing training in ICT;
-
implement pilot training schemes and promote transnational collaboration between tutors and students through the use of ICTs;
-
evaluate the pilot training schemes.
In the framework of these overall aims set by the KINDERET project, this paper reports upon the joint work that was developed by the partnership as the first stage of analysis in the training needs of kindergarten teachers. The analysis of the information that was collected at this stage has provided an empirical basis for the development of the pilot training schemes. 相似文献
