Enhancement and constraint: student-mothers’ experiences of higher vocational education,emotion and time

Student-mothers who study vocationally related higher education programmes are a relatively under-researched group. Specifically, there is a paucity of research into the emotions that these learners experience. This article discusses a qualitative investigation that examined the emotional narratives that a group of vocational student-mothers offered. They were studying for a foundation degree for teaching assistants at a university in the North of England. The student-mothers were largely found to have experienced positive emotions. However, familial and workplace guilt had also been encountered. These emotions emanated from notions about how family and workplace time should be used. Student-mothers managed this cognitive dissonance by stressing the reciprocal relationships that existed between their studies, family lives and school work. However, for many of these learners familial and workplace guilt was a strong and continuing emotion.     

大学教育目标如何在学生评教中得到体现——以24所世界著名大学为例

学生评教是国内外大学普遍采用的改善教育质量的手段。本文在终结型——发展型教育目标的理论框架下,整理并考察世界一流大学的学生评教指标,实证分析评教指标背后所体现的大学教育目标及模式。研究发现,国外大学的学生评教与教育目标之间具有一贯性,其指标设计同时融合了终结型和发展型取向的评教内容,后者略占优势;在地区差异上,欧洲大学偏向于发展型的教学目标,而亚太大学中终结型模式仍然表现强势。分析结果也提示我们,应更深入地理解国外大学评教指标,促进学生评教与教育目标的整合性,推动先进教学模式的形成,从而提高我国大学学生评教的有效性。     

外语教育学与相近学科对比研究

我国外语教育一直偏重教学实践,轻于理论建设,缺乏明确的学科依托,这已成制约其深入发展的主因之一.因此,强化外语教育理论架构,思考外语教育理论属性,探讨外语教育学科归属,对外语教育发展具有重要意义.本文在前期研究的基础上,重点探讨外语教育学这一新兴学科与应用语言学、教育语言学、二语习得、他语人英语教学和外语课程与教学论的...     

校长问责制的定义探析

校长问责制是在借鉴美国教育问责制和我国行政问责制理论的基础上,对我国校长负责制权责不等根源的探索实践中构建出来的一种范式。它指的是校长以调动教职工潜能为基础、培养高素质的学生为目的、以履行对公众的教育承诺为己任、以追求效能为宗旨、全面接受责任追究的监督体制。它与我国中小学正在实施的校长负责制是互补和兼容的。

贵州省优化教育资源配置及其政策选择

通过大量数据、资料分析贵州省学校教育资源、教育经济资源与教师人力资源配置状况,寻找出贵州省优化教育资源配置过程中存在教育经济资源缺乏、教育投入严重不足,教育条件保障和教师人力资源配置水平偏低,教育发展不够协调、教育结构亟待优化,学校教育资源不足等问题,同时又面临扩大规模与提高质量的＂双重使命＂的挑战。为此,尝试提出贵州省优化教育资源配置主要应优化配置学前教育资源、普及高中教育和扩大高等教育规模等八大政策选择。     

A “Deleterious” Driver: The “First Teacher” Reform in Sweden

This article investigates the implementation of the “förstelärare” or “First teacher” reform in Sweden. We draw upon the insights of a superintendent, union official, principal, three First teachers, and two of their colleagues in one school, and recent literature on career development reform. We employ Michael Fullan’s overview of the “right” and “wrong” drivers of educational reform to analyse the extent to which the First Teacher initiative cultivated productive “professional capital.” The research reveals: how broader national policy aims were in clear tension with municipal-wide school development, and school-level development efforts; the perverse effects of a strong focus upon salary on professional conduct; and how an emphasis upon teachers’ roles per se undermined the espoused policy focus on enhancing teaching. The research cautions against the problematic effects of the initiative on more profession-oriented prerogatives, and how more external, “deleterious,” drivers of reform militate against more productive professional capital.     

Network ethnography applied: understanding the evolving health and physical education knowledge landscape

The progressively global, neoliberal, privatised, and digital education environment poses new methodological challenges for educational researchers, prompting a need to innovate. It has been suggested, however, that better commentary and reflection on methodological innovation in education is required. This paper considers the benefits and challenges associated with the use of network ethnography, one methodological approach that has emerged to address new social complexities. We explain the rationale for, and process of, this methodology through reference to an illustrative case: a network ethnography of the outsourcing of Health and Physical Education (HPE) curricular work to external providers. In doing this we map and critique three interrelated activities (i.e. Internet searches, interviews, and network diagram construction) that constituted our network ethnography. The discussion turns to how network ethnography allowed us to access new knowledge about the outsourcing of HPE curricular work to external providers by, for example, facilitating us in asking different questions, and foregrounding various stakeholders, networks and relationships that we may not have discovered had we relied on other approaches. This illustrative case demonstrates the capacity of network ethnography to generate rich data and offers a provocation for educational researchers to consider expanding their methodological repertoire.
