Collaborative research for sustainable learning: the case of developing innovation capabilities at Volvo Cars

This paper aims to make a contribution to the stream of literature on action research by describing a longitudinal collaborative research project which evolved out of a long-term, participation partnership with Volvo Cars. The collaboration was aimed at developing innovation capabilities in the company and accumulating knowledge on how capabilities are developed. The paper provides insights into the design of collaborative research projects to enable mutual, sustainable learning. It draws on key notions in the literature on collaborative management research and action learning, highlighting the research design of the project at Volvo Cars and its relations to action learning. The paper describes how the research design opened the way to establishing a learning system at Volvo Cars while simultaneously generating new scientific knowledge within the area of innovation capabilities. The paper provides rich and detailed data on a collaborative research setting and highlights key aspects related to organizing and undertaking collaborative research.     

Concentric collaboration: a model of leadership development for healthcare organizations

Drawing on their experience in a Midwest healthcare system, the authors propose a model of leadership development through action learning that embraces ‘concentric collaboration’ at its core. The present study suggests that the process of concentric collaboration can serve to strengthen the skills of the individual leader as well as foster collective leadership. Central to the model is the growth and development of the individual leader which extends outward to create connections with others, ultimately increasing the social capital necessary to effect organizational change. This work contributes to the leadership development literature by offering a comprehensive model that includes the process of individual growth as well as collective capacity, organizational factors that support or inhibit this process as well as implications for practice.

The Perceptions of Administrators Concerning the One Florida Initiative

The purpose of this study was to discover the perceptions of Florida law school administrators on the impact of the OFI （one Florida initiative） and the addition of two MSI （minority serving institution） law schools on diversity in Florida＇s legal profession. This research explored the impact of Governor Bush＇s EO （executive order） on diversity within the SUS （state university system） of Florida law schools. Further, this study examined the impact of the creation of two MSI law schools after implementation of the OFI, as perceived by the administrators. The concept of CRT （critical race theory） provides modern legal debates outlining the usefulness of historical civil rights policies in opinionated climates. This study will examine the role of CRT in relation to affirmative action and desegregation case law. CRT forms the framework for examining the impact of the creation of two MSI law schools in the state of Florida. In conclusion, this study found that minority representation in law schools has improved in Florida as a result of the OFI as well as the addition of two MSI law schools. Black representation, however, continues to lag behind other races, particularly the Hispanic population. This study concluded that the OFI has helped improve minority representation in the legal profession.     

幼儿园集体教学中教师提问的现状及其改进

本研究对观察记录的26个集体教学活动中来自教师的1453个提问进行分析,发现当前集体教学中,教师的提问多限于低水平的认知类问题,其主要目的是传授知识和技能;教师的提问通常不能面向全体幼儿,有20%左右的幼儿从来未被教师提问,教师更倾向对能力较强、性格活泼的幼儿提问;在提出问题后,教师虽有等候意识,但实际给予幼儿思考的时间都十分短暂,通常在1秒左右;幼儿的回答方式以个别作答、集体齐答、自由回答为主,而少有讨论后汇报的方式;当幼儿回答正确时,教师会表层化地追问,而当幼儿回答不正确、不完整或未回答时,教师多采用重述、简单否定、自己代答等方式;教师提问的有效性普遍不高,要么不能引导幼儿思维,要么不能抓住关键问题,要么与幼儿经验不符。为改变这种低效或无效的提问现状,教师需要根据教学内容、幼儿已有经验水平、幼儿发展的兴趣与需要精心设计提问,全面考虑问题的类型与难度、给予幼儿思考的时间、允许幼儿回答的方式以及教师自己的应答方式,使提问真正发挥促进幼儿思维与发展的作用,提高整个教学活动设计与实施的水平。

田径跳跃项目专项动作协调能力研究

通过对田径跳跃项目专项动作特征的研究,对田径跳跃项目专项动作协调能力进行了探索,认为田径跳跃项目的动作协调能力在运动技术上表现为：爆发性用力;跑跳结合;摆、蹬结合和空间动作的控制与定向能力四个方面,这将有助于我们对其专项运动协调能力水平做出科学的量度和判断,提高专项运动协调能力.     

Classroom action research on formative assessment in a context-based chemistry course

Context-based science courses stimulate students to reconstruct the information presented by connecting to their prior knowledge and experiences. However, students need support. Formative assessments inform both teacher and students about students’ knowledge deficiencies and misconceptions and how students can be supported. Research on formative assessments suggests a positive impact on students’ science achievement, although its success depends on how the formative assessment is implemented in class. The aim of this study was to provide insights into the effects of formative assessments on achievement during a context-based chemistry course on lactic acid. In a classroom action research setting, a pre-test/post-test control group design with switching replications was applied. Student achievement was measured in two pre-tests, two post-tests and a retention test. Participants were Grade 9 students from one secondary school in the Netherlands. Repeated-measures analysis showed a significant effect of formative assessments on students’ achievement. During the implementation of the formative assessments, intriguing discussions emerged between students, between students and teacher, and between teachers. Adding formative assessments to context-based approaches reinforces their strength to meet with the current challenges of chemistry education. Formative assessments affect students’ achievement positively and stimulate feedback between students and teacher(s).

再论集体经营性建设用地信托之法构造

集体经营性建设用地使用权是一种用益物权,其可转让性得到了新修订的土地管理法的承认,可以成为集体经营性建设用地信托的信托财产。 集体经营性建设用地信托关系中的委托人和受益人都是农民集体。 农民集体作为委托人时,由于不具备我国信托法要求的民事行为能力,所以,农民集体的委托行为往往可以由经过其授权的集体经济组织代理。 集体经营性建设用地信托的受托人一般采取信托机构的形式,并有两种模式可以选择,即由政府出资成立的信托机构和商业信托机构。 前者具有一定的现实意义,而后者代表了受托人未来的发展趋势。
