Grade repetition in Honduran primary schools

This paper looks at several dimensions of the grade failure issue in Honduras using a unique data set compiled by the UMCE evaluation project in 1998 and 1999. The analytical framework incorporates econometric analysis of standardized tests and teacher pass/fail decisions for roughly 13,000 second and fourth grade students. The results show that first time grade repetition, as well as repeating previous grades, is associated with lower marginal achievement on the UMCE exams, although the same is not true for students who are repeating the second or third time. The strongest predictor of grade failure is previous repetition, despite the inclusion of controls for achievement and attendance. The implications of this apparently strong stigma effect associated with grade repetition are discussed, as well as other policy issues related to grade repetition in developing countries.

对中国近代教会教育的认识

从明末清初,即有洋人来华传教,而传教的最佳途径就是办学校.清末,列强们的枪炮打开了国门,大批传教士也随即而来,并在华大规模办学传教,体系亦日益完善,形成了小学、中学、大学的完整的教育体系.这在客观上为中国近代培养了一批具有西方现代科技理念的人才.但由于我们受到一些传统观点的影响,并没有对它给予充分的重视.因此,重新认识教会教育对中国近代教育发展的影响是十分必要的.     

20世纪90年代以来的美国教育改革

20世纪90年代以来，美国政府通过择校计划、学券制和特许学校等，积极推进市场化，在教育界引入竞争机制，同时强化联邦政府对全国教育改革的干预能力，努力实行优质教育，增进教育公平，建构学习化社区，试图在新世纪继续长期保持其世界惟一超级强国的地位。其间虽然围绕择校、学券制、特许学校和联邦政府干预地方教育改革等的合法性问题展开了广泛争论，但这一系列教育改革仍然得到了积极而坚决的推行。     

Early Islam in British Higher Education

Abstract

In an educational environment where interest in Arabic and Islam is growing, I ask the place of revisionist/critical approaches to early Islam in Higher Education. This paper uses 15 semi-structured interviews with Lecturers in early Islam to investigate how they treat controversial subject matter in the classroom. The paper examines how the different approaches taken by lecturers are linked to different kinds of academic training, and asks what kinds of approach are suited to different student demographics. It concludes by suggesting how critical ways of teaching this subject are linked to new approaches in interfaith engagement, which acknowledge the political context for the development of Scriptures.

ICT,educational technology and educational instruments. Will what has worked work again elsewhere in the future?

Computers in education have been around for more than 30 years. They have been the vector not only of diverse forms of educational technology, but also of many new kinds of learning activities using software instruments. With the gradual trivialization of computer systems, the initially rather positive expectations about computers in education have progressively turned into more skeptical attitudes about the use of ICT. What is really working with computers in education? Was the investment worth the outcomes? The number of scientific studies focusing on these issues is huge. Most of their results have been obtained either by very focused experiments on some educational technology, generally involving a limited number of students, or by surveys, taking into account large numbers of learners but with little control about the kind of activities that were actually organized. Overall, hardly any conclusive results about possible causal implications of using ICT in learning have been obtained and there is no evidence about the stability of existing results over time. This paper, particularly taking into account the French experience, draws attention on the specific case of software instruments. These instruments do not exactly aim at performing more efficiently existing activities, but lead to invent new learning activities better in line with constructivist views. It suggests that, besides studies about what works, more research is in order about how it works and contends that what will work in the future is linked to the capability of the teaching profession and their allies to collectively build and discuss new interrogations and solutions to pedagogical problems, which will sustain and regulate the many discoveries of innovators.
