创造性想象和推理的脑电特征及其在教育中的应用

创造性思维的心理发展特点,包括情感化的表象体验,认知性的概象推理和综合性的意象思维三大内容。其中,表象体验属于枕顶颞叶感性建构阶段,概象推理属于联络皮层知性建构阶段,意象思维属于前额叶新皮层理性建构阶段。这三个阶段同人的少年时期、青年时期和成年时期相对应。对90个当代青少年样本的想象与推理的大脑诱发电位观测表明。实验组的感觉皮层—联络皮层—前额叶新皮层的认知电位波幅均显著高于对照组,认知电位的潜伏期也短于后者;且大脑右半球的电位特征比左半球更明显。这说明,应当在青少年早期大力强化其表象体验和感性塑造活动,在中期锐化其概象耦合(想象式推理)与知性建构活动,在后期强化其意象统摄性全息思维与理性修养活动,以发展青少年的情、知、意与创造性思维素质。     

Employment and Achievement: Mothers' Work Involvement in Relation to Children's Achievement Behaviors and Mothers' Parenting Behaviors

Mothers' total weekly work hours and psychological work involvement were examined in relation to children's achievement behaviors and mothers' parenting. 105 middle-class children ( M = 6 years old) and their mothers (both employed and not employed) participated in this study. Data were collected from lab observations, teacher ratings, and parent surveys. Findings of interest include. (1) for the full sample, higher weekly work hours were associated with poorer teacher ratings of children's grades, school work habits, and aspects of personality conducive to achievement: (2) within the employed sample, as mothers' weekly hours of work increased, daughters' grades were higher but sons' grades, work habits, and ego control were poorer, and (3) mothers' psychological motivation to work related to mothers' support of children's achievement and girls' stronger achievement motivation. The study findings point to the utility of including multiple measures of work involvement and children's achievement-related behaviors.

Being chimaera: a monstrous identity for SoTL academics

Lurking on the fringes of university culture are academic identities that do not fit into the usual disciplinary communities. Aiming to explore the experience of ‘being academic’ when not linked directly to a discipline, this paper examines the stories of a diverse group of SoTL scholars who work in a centralised multi-campus academic skills support centre in an Australian university. Framed as group auto-ethnography, the paper inquires into the everyday experience of these academics through narrative analysis of multiple first-person accounts and makes apparent the monstrousness of de-affiliated academic identities. Despite diverse disciplinary backgrounds, the author-participants found that they now shared a tripartite academic identity formed through the negotiation of three roles: the teacher, the disciplinarian, and the educational researcher. Using the chimaera, a mythical three-headed monster as an organising metaphor, this paper aims to provide agency and visibility for often under-represented and unacknowledged academic identities.

试论教师观察行为

如果从专业的角度看,教师观察行为是教师的基本行为之一,它是指教师在一个意义单元内搜集有意义的信息的过程。教师观察行为有五个特征:教师观察行为以意义单元为单位,是搜集有意义信息的过程,是能动的建构过程,具有变化性和单向性。研究教师观察行为必须要研究观察维度,教师专业水平的提高是观察行为有效性的重要保障,观察维度的把握是教师专业水平提高的重要方面。

Early Education Essentials: Validation of Surveys Measuring Early Education Organizational Conditions

Research Findings: The Early Education Essentials surveys use teacher and parent perceptions to measure 6 organizational conditions of early childhood education programs, extending and complementing existing measures of early childhood care and education (ECE) quality constructs. This study tests the reliability and concurrent validity of the Early Education Essentials in 81 school- and community-based ECE sites in a large Midwestern city selected using a stratified random sampling method. Using a Rasch item response theory model, scales were created; theory and exploratory factor analyses combined scales into higher level constructs called essentials. Multilevel models took into account individual measurement error to create site-level essential scores and assessed relationships between programs’ essential scores and site-level teacher–child interactions scores and student attendance. Findings suggest that the Early Education Essentials is reliable in multiple ECE settings; it is sensitive to site-level differences; and some, but not all, organizational conditions measured are associated in expected directions with site-level metrics indicative of center-based ECE quality. Practice or Policy: The Early Education Essentials has the potential to provide leaders and practitioners with actionable data about organizational supports that enable ECE practitioners to be more effective in their daily work with children and families.
