Adolescents’ Friendships,Academic Achievement,and Risk Behaviors: Same-Behavior and Cross-Behavior Selection and Influence Processes

This study examined to what extent adolescents’ and their friends’ risk behaviors (i.e., delinquency and alcohol use) hinder or promote their academic achievement (grade point average [GPA]), and vice versa. Longitudinal data were used (N = 1,219 seventh- to ninth-grade adolescents; M_age = 13.69). Results showed that risk behaviors negatively affected adolescents’ GPA, whereas GPA protected against engaging in risk behaviors. Moreover, adolescents tended to select friends who have similar behaviors and friends’ behaviors became more similar over time (same-behavior selection and influence). Furthermore, although same-behavior effects seemed to dominate, evidence was found for some cross-behavior selection effects and a tendency in seventh grade for cross-behavior influence effects. Concluding, it is important to investigate the interplay between different behaviors with longitudinal social network analysis.     

Pathways to Parental Engagement: Contributions of Parents,Teachers, and Schools in Cultural Context

Research Findings: This study examined correlates of parents’ reported school engagement in an ethnically diverse, rural sample (N = 346) of parents and teachers in kindergarten through Grade 2. Of particular interest were role expectations and family–school relationships in American Indian families, who historically have been marginalized by schools. In terms of role expectations, parents and teachers agreed that they should support each other’s roles, parents should have more responsibility than schools for teaching social skills, and families and schools should have shared responsibility for children’s academic success. Teachers had higher expectations than parents for parent engagement, which in turn was greater when parent–teacher communication was more frequent and the school climate was more welcoming. American Indian parents more strongly endorsed a separation of family and school roles and felt less welcomed at school; ethnicity moderated correlates of reported parent engagement. Practice or Policy: These findings have practical promise given that parent–teacher communication, school climate, and role expectations are more easily altered than are structural barriers that also may hinder parents’ involvement in supporting their children’s early education.

从初学者到实践专家——现代职教体系下培养目标分层次定位问题初探

长期以来受学科教育思想束缚,高职院校专业人才培养目标定位通常是内涵模糊的定性描述,这些描述方法不能根本上解决职业教育专业人才培养目标分层次定位问题。以职业发展关键阶段的名称及内涵要求来定位培养目标,能比较科学地解决好不同层次职业教育在课程体系、教材、教学目标、教学方法、考核评价等一系列重要问题上的有机衔接,对于我国建立现代职业教育体系,并对职业教育人才培养质量的监控与保障将形成革命性的影响。     

人之卓越的丧失与制造平庸的教育

人之卓越就是实现人之为人的内在要求,在现代条件下,它意味着人要超越低层次的需要,走向高层次的需要,即自我超越。人之卓越不是一种品质,而是实现活动。物质主义造成了卓越的扭曲,官僚体系束缚了对卓越的追求,相对主义带来了自我的封闭,民主政体在某种程度上造成了大众的平庸,这些都是造成人之卓越丧失的现代根源。让学生接受卓越的教育,学过卓越的生活,对他们的卓越表现给予承认,并培养他们苏格拉底式反思的品质是可能的教育出路。
