Creating a distinctive business career outcome programme

This article describes how a small private business school, accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, reengineered its career services programme to become a premier programme in the United States. Drawing on theory of involvement, the research gives business schools a strategy to improve business career placement through capital support, student engagement, corporate engagement, alumni engagement, faculty engagement and continuous improvement initiatives. Further, two major outcome categories (i.e. supportive outcomes and end outcomes) are identified and various measures are discussed. Supportive outcomes indicate growth in the number of on-campus business recruiting career events, high internship evaluations by internship supervisors and significant increase in students’ satisfaction with career services. End outcomes provide strong evidence for placement rate success with a 98% career placement rate for the past four years, significant increase on mean starting salaries of graduates across the years following the implementation of the strategic changes, improved quality of positions attained by graduates, and professional success of alumni in their positions. The impact of strategic changes on school ranking, enrolment and donor support are also discussed. The research proposes a model of student career success and identifies various elements influencing the success of such programmes.

Children of the market: performativity,neoliberal responsibilisation and the construction of student identities

This paper draws on interview data gathered from a broader study concerned with examining issues of social justice, cultural diversity and schooling. The focus is on five students in Years 5 and 6 who attend a primary school located on the edge of a class-privileged area in outer London. The children are all high achievers who are very invested in doing well in school and in life within the parameters of neoliberalism. The paper examines the ways in which neoliberal discourses of performativity and individual responsibilisation permeate the children’s talk in relation to their understandings of education and their future, and their worth and value as students. Such examination enriches the findings of important research in this area that draws attention to the ways in which neoliberal discourses have become naturalised and taken-for-granted in what counts as being a good student and a good citizen. The paper problematises the individualism, competitiveness and anxiety produced by these discourses and provides further warrant for supporting students to identify, challenge and think beyond them.     

英语阅读课堂中的"问题"研究

英语教学的最终目的是要培养学生运用英语交际的能力。成功的教学活动是师生之间良好的沟通，最佳效率也来自于师生之间有效的合作。因此，“问与答”是以学生为中心的教学中重要且不可缺少的一部分。本研究通过课堂录音和问卷调查的方法。从协商的角度就“问题”作为输入，“问题”作为指导和“问题”作为互动三方面对课堂会话中的“问题”作了深入系统的分析，着重强调了“问题”的动态特征。以期对教学实践有一定的启发。

Metacognitive activity in the physics student laboratory: is increased metacognition necessarily better?

In this study natural-in-action metacognitive activity during the student laboratory in university physics is explored, with an aim towards quantifying the amount of metacognition used by the students. The study investigates whether quantifying natural-in-action metacognition is possible and valuable for examining teaching and learning in these contexts. Video recordings of student groups working during three types of introductory physics laboratories were transcribed and then coded using a coding scheme developed from related research on mathematical problem solving. This scheme identifies a group’s general behaviour and metacognitive activity. The study recognizes that reliably identifying metacognition is challenging, and steps are taken to improve reliability. Results suggest that a greater amount of metacognition does not appear to improve students’ success in the laboratory—what appears to matter is whether the metacognition causes students to change behaviour. This study indicates that it is important to consider the outcome of metacognition, not just the amount.

论协商课程的中国式情结

随着新课程改革的推进和深化,协商课程的话语之声日渐强势。然而,协商课程在中国本土的适应过程中出现了内涵异化、模式僵化、态度踌躇的病理性表征。造成协商课程顾此失彼尴尬局面的主要原因在于现实遭遇中的中心—外围的推广模式、经验主导的思维样态以及内忧外患的交往理性。因此,在中国课程场域中,协商课程模式应立足现实,从课程改革的倡导者、促进者和实施者三方关系入手,在涂鸦板、天平以及药理学的隐喻诠释中,为实现包容式发展探寻一条平衡的和合路径。
