Ideological differences in a writing class evoke the passion of political sensitivities. A graduate student tells of “coming
out” as a pro-life advocate in an essay before his feminist classmates and professor. The exchange created instant and irreconcilable
enemies, but he also found some unexpected support from a hesitant voice within that classroom.

On the ground that reading fluency entails appropriate phrasing or prosody as well as facile word recognition, we investigated
the effectiveness of text-based and word-based repeated readings procedures for promoting fluency of reading aloud and comprehension
in second-grade children. Repeated readings of text printed with spaces between phrases and ends of lines at clause boundaries
(phrase-cued text), repeated readings of text printed with conventional layout (standard text), and repeated readings of lists
of difficult words from text were compared. Computer-based, guided repeated reading training intervened between a pretest
and post-test reading of text. Each training condition led to significant benefits on one or more of the experimental measures
obtained from reading aloud. Repeated readings with text resulted in greater gains in fluency than repeated readings with
word lists. Reading with natural prosody was most strongly facilitated by repeated readings of phrase-cued text, which provided
visible support for sentence structure.

In this Forum, we construct a history of the National Association for Research in Science Education (NARST) through the analysis of documents and through the personal perspectives of individuals. The history of NARST is inseparable
from the biography of the individuals through whose lives it was produced and reproduced. The history of NARST is a living
history that both shapes and was shaped by the biographies of its members.

Wolff-Michael Roth’s In Search of Meaning and Coherence: A Life in Research, presents a selection of his previously published key works layered with current commentary and analysis. In this book review,
we explore themes that emerge through the text to trace Roth’s development as a theoretician and as a researcher. We recommend
this book for all those who are interested in Wolff-Michael Roth and the trajectory of his career, in particular those who
are just beginning their journey towards academic scholarship.

In this article I critically examine the historical context of science education in a natural history museum and its relevance
to using museum resources to teach science today. I begin with a discussion of the historical display of race and its relevance
to my practice of using the Museum’s resources to teach science. I continue with a critical review of the history of the education
department in a natural history museum to demonstrate the historical constitution of current practices of the education department.
Using sociocultural constructs around identity formation and transformation, I move to the present with a case study of a
teacher who transforms the structure of science education in her classroom and school as a result of her identity transformation
and association with a museum-based professional education program.

Generic attributes as espoused theory: the importance of context 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Anna Jones 《Higher Education》2009,58(2):175-191
There has been considerable interest in generic attributes in higher education for over a decade and yet while generic skills
or attributes are an important aspect of policy, there is often a lack of consistency between beliefs about the importance
of these skills and attributes and the degree to which exist in teaching practice. There has been an assumption that these
attributes exist outside of the disciplinary context, yet the findings of this study suggest that they are strongly influenced
by the disciplinary culture in which they are taught. The study reported in this paper examines the apparent gap between ideal
notions of generic attributes and their enactment in teaching practice. This qualitative study examined the teaching of generic
attributes in five disciplines (physics, history, economics, medicine and law) in two Australian universities. It found that
the notion of generic attributes is highly complex and while attributes such as critical thinking, problem solving and communication
are valued by teaching staff they are often implicit in teaching. This gap between what is valued and what is actually taught
is a result of variation in interpretation of generic attributes, the difficulties of reducing complex attributes to definable
learning outcomes and practical constraints on teaching caused by factors such as large classes. Furthermore, it can be explained
by the finding that generic attributes are part of the epistemic culture of the disciplines and often remain tacit. The findings
of this study have significant implications for scholarship, policy and pedagogy.

This article explores how Sandra Cisneros alludes to and recasts popular fairy tales in The House on Mango Street to reveal their troubled legacy in the lives of many women in the novel. Drawing upon Latina feminist theory and Cisneros’s
autobiographical writing, this article posits that the main character Esperanza’s alternative “happily ever after” comes through
locating the vocation of writing as the fulcrum for self-definition and social change. It is suggested that feminist literary
criticism can be enhanced through analysis of heroines from diverse cultural backgrounds and theoretical frameworks attuned
to racial and ethnic diversity.

In mainstream Western cultures where bedtime means isolation and separation from adults, picture books about bedtime are cultural
artifacts created especially for this transitional process of separation. In a culture such as Taiwan where children often
sleep with their parents, siblings, or other caregivers until elementary school, the need for picture books about bedtime
is an imported concept. The large number of translated Western bedtime books found in Taiwan becomes a rich area in which
to explore the impact of imported ideas of childhood on Taiwanese picture book creation. This article takes a close look at
the books created by Taiwanese authors with a bedtime theme and notes their culturally hybrid qualities.

In modern mathematical teaching, it has become increasingly emphasized that mathematical knowledge should be taught by problem-solving,
hands-on activities, and interactive learning experiences. Comparing the ideas of modern mathematical education with the development
of ancient Chinese mathematics, we find that the history of mathematics in ancient China is an abundant resource for materials
to demonstrate mathematics by hands-on manipulation. In this article I shall present two cases that embody this idea of a
hands-on approach in ancient Chinese mathematics, at the same time offering an opportunity to show how to utilize materials
from the history of Chinese math in modern mathematical education.

The whole mode of Galileo’s discovery of the Law of Inertia is an excellent exemplar of the Nature of Science. The law can,
moreover be shown to be a direct consequence of the hypothesis that space is homogeneous and isotropic and time is homogeneous

In this rejoinder to Bryan Brown and John Reveles, we highlight the facts that (a) sociocultural theories of learning do not
go far enough because they fail to address a number of issues and (b) we require concepts such as power and positionality
to understand science learning.

This study investigated the relationship between components of working memory (WM) and the macrostructure (e.g., planning,
writing, and revision) and microstructure (e.g., grammar, punctuation) of writing. A battery of WM and writing measures were
administered to 160 high-school students. Overall, hierarchical regression analyses showed that the central executive component
of WM significantly predicted planning, writing, and revision as well the majority of microstructure measures. The results
further validate the importance of WM in the writing process, but indicate that writing process is more intricately tied to
the controlled attention component of WM when compared to storage of information.

Our 5-year professional development intervention is designed to promote elementary teachers’ knowledge, beliefs, and practices
in teaching science, along with English language and mathematics for English Language Learning (ELL) students in urban schools.
In this study, we used an end-of-year questionnaire as a primary data source to seek teachers’ perspectives on our intervention
during the first year of implementation. Teachers believed that the intervention, including curriculum materials and teacher
workshops, effectively promoted students’ science learning, along with English language development and mathematics learning.
Teachers highlighted strengths and areas needing improvement in the intervention. Teachers’ perspectives have been incorporated
into our on-going intervention efforts and offer insights into features of effective professional development initiatives
in improving science achievement for all students.

In today’s reform context, much attention is placed on policies and outcomes and far less emphasis on understanding the social
and cultural processes in schools. Using case-study methodology, I examine relationships between low-income, urban high school
students of color, and the school adults with whom they interact. Using grounded theory, students’ experiences are analyzed
and interpreted through the lens of recognition. Recognition is used as both a theoretical and empirical concept to illuminate
students’ experiences and voices, especially since the construct is largely absent in the U.S. education discourse. Students
revealed that being known by adults, talking with adults, engaging with adults personally, and experiencing encouraging adults
were all critical elements of recognition. I suggest that student–adult relationships, via the practice of recognition in
urban schools, needs to be interrogated, deliberate, and political so that the transformative purpose of education can be
realized.

This article builds upon more than 6 years of critical research in urban schools in northern California to offer a particular
perspective on teaching for social justice. Concerned with prevailing issues in adolescent literacy, this article examines
instantiations of literacy instruction in the shadow of the late activist poet June Jordan and with the support of Pulitzer
Prize-winning author Alice Walker. It focuses on culturally responsive pedagogy to understand not only their work but also
the work of teachers and other educators. Central to the discussion are two kinds of pedagogical innovations, one based on
a school-community partnership and the other a district-wide sponsored writing contest. Implications for classroom practice
and key lessons useful for teachers interested in similar work are also discussed.

In responding to critics and reviewers of my book, How the Cold War Transformed Philosophy of Science, I attempt to identify some misleading conventional wisdom about the place of values in philosophy of science and then offer
three distinct ways in which philosophers of science can engage their work with ongoing social and political currents.

This essay on the ethical mission of the university explores extremes of anti-social behavior, visiting numerous crime scenes
before concluding that contemporary higher education has lost the capacity—and even the language—for taking character development
seriously. In his attempt to determine whether coincidently traditional-liberationist-diversiphilic-apathetic colleges can
morally improve their charges, Peter Wood collects a wrenching compendium of violent academic mayhem.
