The Adolescent in the Online Game

This article addresses the need for changes in current views on adolescent development. It presents observations of adolescent behavior in the online game Dragon Nest that were conducted by specialists from the Crossroads Center for Social and Psychological Adaptation and Adolescent Development, Moscow State University of Psychology and Education, in 2013. These observations helped form theories about age-specific tasks arising in adolescence. The restorative approach was selected as the theoretical basis for this work. This approach represents the practical application of the cultural-historical theory and the activity theory to the provision of social and psychological assistance to adolescents. An analysis of adolescent activity in a game, the structure of communication, and observations of adolescent relationships in online gaming space make it possible to form theories on the role of communication among peers in today’s society in terms of adolescent individuation and development.     

Exploring Five Online Collaboration Tools to Facilitate a Professional Learning Community

Critical Friends Groups (CFGs) are a form professional learning community that has been used for teacher learning in K-12 environments for many years. In order to foster community and learning amongst distributed participants, CFGs are beginning to make their way online. This article describes the expereience of a four-year old online CFG whose goal was to explore how different technologies can support the work of a virtual CFG by being an online CFG. This article describes the technologies used to host this CFG, the attributes of those technologies to support this collaborative work and the lessons learned from the group’s experience.     

在线学习中活动感知对社会性技能、社群归属感和学习满意度的影响

本研究目的在于探讨增强性的活动感知与网上学习的社会性互动本质之间的关系及其相互影响。作为一个基于设计的研究项目,我们已建立了对网路学习之社会性因素的深入了解,且开发了一个背景感知活动通知系统以支持活动感知,用于提升学习者网上学习的社会性技能。本研究通过问卷调查的方法收集资料,主要针对六门使用活动感知支持系统的网上学习课程,学生对其自身网上学习经验的认知。研究结果显示,学生获取活动讯息的途径、他们对活动讯息有效性的认知,对他们网上学习的社会性技能、社群归属感、以及学习满意度有正向的影响。此外,学生的网上社会性技能的组成要素也以不同的方式影响着他们的网上社群归属感和学习满意度,例如,学生对同伴与教师存在的感知以及分享个人资料的舒适度,影响着他们对社群归属感的认知;学生对教师存在的认识和社群归属感,也影响他们的学习满意度。     

The Effect of a Community Project on Sense of Community among Social Work Students: An Exploratory Evaluative Study

This article evaluates the effect of a community project that was adopted by the students of a school of social work in Israel. A quasi-experimental pretest–posttest design was used. The pretest was administered during the planning stage of the project and the posttest a year later, during the implementation period. The findings show a significant positive effect of the project on sense of community among the students. This effect was moderated by students’ ethnic affiliation (Arab or Jewish) and professional commitment. The implications for using community projects to develop a sense of community in schools of social work are discussed.     

Examining Peer Collaboration in Online Inquiry

Abstract

This study examines peer collaboration among four pairs of seventh graders who read online to determine what caused the downfall of the Mayan civilization. More and less productive collaborative interactions are presented through snippets of dialogue in which pairs negotiated complex texts. Few examples of how teachers can skillfully facilitate collaborative interactions currently exist, despite the call for these skills in the Common Core State Standards. Teaching ideas that support collaborative online reading are featured.

体育锻炼对大学生一般自我效能感的影响:动机的中介效应

探讨体育锻炼对大学生一般自我效能感的影响,验证锻炼动机的中介效应和性别的调节效应。研究采用体育活动等级量表(PARS-3)、体育锻炼动机量表(MPAM-R)、一般自我效能感量表(GSES)对1049名大学生(男579人,女470人)进行问卷调查。研究显示:体育锻炼、锻炼动机与一般自我效能感间两两显著正相关;回归分析表明体育锻炼对锻炼动机和一般自我效能感回归效应显著,并分别解释变异的1.3%和6.2%;锻炼动机在体育锻炼基础上对一般自我效能感回归效应显著,在体育锻炼解释一般自我效能感时具备部分中介效应,其效应占总效应值的14.1%;不同性别大学生在体育锻炼与一般自我效能感关系上存在差异。研究显示体育锻炼可以提升大学生的一般自我效能感,锻炼动机在其中起到了部分中介效应,性别在其中起到调节效应。     

青少年网络游戏成瘾研究综述

网络游戏成瘾是网络成瘾的一个亚型,给青少年带来负面影响,已成为国内外心理学研究的热点课题。通过回顾国内外网络游戏成瘾研究成果,对网络游戏成瘾的概念、评估与干预等方面进行总结,进而指出现有实验研究的效度问题与网络成瘾问卷编制中网络成瘾亚型研究的不足,明确了青少年网络游戏结构特征、不同游戏种类影响的比较以及网络游戏成瘾评估方法的科学化与评估指标的多样化将成为未来的研究趋势。     

从在线协作到面对面协作:基于多点触摸桌面的CSCL研究综述

新兴的多用户交互式触摸桌面技术,正逐渐成为CSCL研究关注的热点问题。多点触摸桌面技术与现有课堂的融合,引发了CSCL研究的视角转变:从关注虚拟环境中的交互,转向计算机支持的面对面人际交互。多点触摸桌面的技术特性表现出支持社会性交互、促进多用户协作、丰富学习者动手体验等教育适应性。对已有研究梳理发现,桌面技术在技术架构、课堂交互分析的理论框架两方面已取得可直接指导实践应用的成果。桌面技术教学实证研究的结论表明,该技术能有效支持真实课堂环境中的协作学习。未来此领域的研究焦点将集中在技术与教学两个方面:桌面技术与现有课堂信息技术系统协同工作机制;桌面技术支持下的教师教学组织能力与技术准备。     

运动的视觉效应

运动观察者感觉远近不同的对地静物间的视速不同的现象称为运动的视觉效应(笔者自定义)。据实际观察且经数学推导证明:视觉速度是由运动观察者相对于被观察物体的位移的时间变化率所决定的。当运动观察者同时观察多个对地静物时,观察者很自然地以介于远近之间的物体为参照来观察远近物体。这时的视运动由相对视速所决定。

Children Making Sense of Science

This study explored the effects that the incorporation of nature of science (NoS) activities in the primary science classroom had on children’s perceptions and understanding of science. We compared children’s ideas in four classes by inviting them to talk, draw and write about what science meant to them: two of the classes were taught by ‘NoS’ teachers who had completed an elective nature of science (NoS) course in the final year of their Bachelor of Education (B.Ed) degree. The ‘non-NoS’ teachers who did not attend this course taught the other two classes. All four teachers had graduated from the same initial teacher education institution with similar teaching grades and all had carried out the same science methods course during their B.Ed programme. We found that children taught by the teachers who had been NoS-trained developed more elaborate notions of nature of science, as might be expected. More importantly, their reflections on science and their science lessons evidenced a more in-depth and sophisticated articulation of the scientific process in terms of scientists “trying their best” and “sometimes getting it wrong” as well as “getting different answers”. Unlike children from non-NoS classes, those who had engaged in and reflected on NoS activities talked about their own science lessons in the sense of ‘doing science’. These children also expressed more positive attitudes about their science lessons than those from non-NoS classes. We therefore suggest that there is added value in including NoS activities in the primary science curriculum in that they seem to help children make sense of science and the scientific process, which could lead to improved attitudes towards school science. We argue that as opposed to considering the relevance of school science only in terms of children’s experience, relevance should include relevance to the world of science, and NoS activities can help children to link school science to science itself.

The Communication of Community Collaboration: When Rhetorical Visions Collide

Recently, community coalitions have grown in size, scope, and popularity in response to increasing demands for community-based involvement. Despite this trend, little is known about the ubiquitous role communication plays in the creation of community coalition missions, goals, and enactment practices. In addition, few studies have focused on the symbolic discourse of vital, active community groups. This study examines how coalition members have symbolically converged around a shared vision, which has unintentionally affected group sustenance. Fantasy theme analysis identifies two distinct visions in competition with one another, highlighting possible group dysfunction and decline. This communicative analysis of the group's symbolic life, coupled with a practical look into group effectiveness, bridges the gap between functionalist and interpretive approaches to studying organizational groups.     

网上教研:为什么要聚焦学习社区

网上教研在我国还处于起步阶段,如何改善网上教研效果,使之成为教师专业发展的新途径是一个值得探讨的问题.2007年以来,我们与北京市西城区教师研修学院的老师们合作开展以改善网上教研效果为目标的行动研究,本文介绍了该研究的反思、行动历程.首先,通过文献分析,明确以混合式教研作为网上教研的取向,在经历了"从资源共享走向经验分享"和"改进交流模式支持经验分享"两次行动后,最终将研究聚焦在学习社区上,通过网上教研活动的设计、实施和持续改进,增进网上教学临场感.笔者建议,教师网上学习社区的研究不仅要从教学维度,还要从社会维度、认知维度来开展工作,通过持续的研究和不断的改进,为信息时代的教师专业发展提供理论和实践支持.
