Institution initiatives and support related to faculty development of open educational resources and alternative textbooks

ABSTRACT

Evidence exists that American institutions of higher education are well-entrenched in the consideration of mechanisms for supporting the implementation of Open Educational Resources (OER) and alternative textbooks. Literature reveals that developing and implementing OER is a significant undertaking in terms of time and human resources. This study deploys content analysis of a sample of United States regionally based higher education institutional websites to determine the current state of institutional support mechanisms to implementers just embarking on the OER journey. Findings reveal that institutions have made strides in the development of faculty mini-grants and stipends with guidelines, proposal checklists, and weighting mechanisms to inform decision making. However, due to widespread language across the stratified sample emphasising award pool and individual limits, it is clear that OER funding is still seeking wider support as a permanent funded resource. Sponsorship of institutional OER initiatives seems split between institutional library functions and teaching and learning centres. Other issues, such as ownership and licensing, are significantly underdeveloped in field implementation or fall in a large continuum of practices. Recommendations of shared responsibility and use of data driven initiatives are provided that may improve institutional support of faculty OER adoption, adaption and creation.

Investigating academic dishonesty among Chinese undergraduate students: does gender matter?

The high rate of academic dishonesty reported among Chinese college students has created challenges for practitioners in both domestic and Western universities. Following two contrasting yet complementary scholarly approaches, this study explored the relative importance of predictors indicative of students’ intention to cheat (moral attitude, subjective norm and penalty enforcement) and of their educational preparedness for academic integrity (integrity engagement) in explaining academic dishonesty, with an emphasis on gender differences. We administered a questionnaire survey to a sample of 2009 Chinese undergraduate students. The results indicated that moral attitude and integrity engagement were the major predictors, that subjective norm accounted for marginal variations of academic dishonesty, and that the influence of penalty enforcement was insignificant. Some gender differences on both the mean score and effect levels of the four predictors were revealed. The effects of grade, year and area of study on academic dishonesty (and particularly their joint effects with gender) were noteworthy. These findings are discussed relative to the results of prior studies and the Chinese context.     

全球化是否有助于教育公平？

自20世纪末迄今,全球化在资本主义沃土的滋润下,已经蔚为世界的潮流。全球化一方面有现代性的特质,另一方面,也呈现后现代思潮的特征。教育在此全球化的不同样貌中,必须认清现代与后现代思潮的利弊得失,并批判地融合两者,方能确保教育公平和社会正义。从现代和后现代思维,厘清与批判全球化的趋势和内涵,并透过分析、诠释与批判方法,为教育在全球化趋势下,找到一条有助于促进教育迈向公平和正义的方向。     

和谐性教育公平观探析

教育公平问题作为现代社会公平价值的体现以及当今中国社会诸多社会问题之一,而今已成为社会和教育界关注的热点。目前我国的教育公平问题研究已经积累了很多认识和实践的经验,但是教育公平问题的依然热门说明当前教育公平的现状与人们所追求的所期望的状态还有很大的差距,如何在深入研究作为价值前提的正义理论基础上于认识论层面形成全面正确的和谐性教育公平观是当今亟待解决并具有重要现实意义的一步。
