Principles of evolutionary educational psychology

Evolutionary educational psychology is the study of the relation between evolved systems of folk knowledge and inferential and attributional biases as these relate to academic learning in modern society. Following discussion and illustration of the mechanisms of natural selection and their application to human motivational, cognitive, and behavioral evolution, the basic premises and principles of evolutionary educational psychology are outlined. The gist is that the evolved cognitive systems and inferential biases that define folk knowledge are not sufficient for academic learning, but, at the same time, are the foundation from which academic competencies are built. A theoretical frame outlining the relation between folk knowledge and academic development is proposed and implications for motivational issues and instructional practices are detailed.     

大四师范生专业承诺与学习倦怠调查研究

本文采用纵向研究设计方法,对大四师范生进行了专业承诺和学习倦怠的研究,旨在探讨师范生专业承诺状况,为大学生职业心理咨询和干预提供理论依据.研究结果表明：①大四师范生专业承诺整体水平处于中等水平（83.98±12.23）,继续承诺最低（16.71±2.87）;②总承诺、情感承诺、理想承诺、规范承诺、继续承诺随着时间的增长有下降的趋势,其中,继续承诺前后测的得分存在显著性差异（t =2.413,p＜0.05）.③学习倦怠的水平较高（59.83±6.57）,其中成就感低最为严重（19.42 ±3.08）;④总倦怠、情绪低落、成就感低随着时间的增长有上升的趋势.因此加强对师范大学生进行职业心理辅导,可激发大学生学习积极性和增强大学生职业信心.

MOOC在社区教育中的应用路径探索——基于开放大学建设的视角

MOOC（MassiveOpenOnlineCourse）即大规模开放性在线课程,是当前风行于发达国家的新型网络教学模式,其开放、大规模等特征有助于中国社区教育的普及,并完善终身教育体系的构建。从MOOC原初理论出发,挖掘MOOC的内涵和价值能更好的借鉴国外的实践经验,从学习者、社区学院、教育管理部门三个角度探究其在中国社区教育中的应用路径,分析在我国社区教育中推行MOOC可能遇到的障碍．进而从服务职能提升、终身教育实践能力发展和学业评价科学化三个方面,阐述MOOC在开放大学建设中的意义。     

中国高校二语动机策略实证研究

动机被视为影响二语学习成效的一个重要的情感因素。本文用定量研究方法对62位高校英语教师进行了调查,旨在研究动机策略重要性的认识程度以及具体运用程度,并探讨两者之间是否存在显著差异。研究结果表明：教师总体上在动机策略的重要性认识程度和实际课堂运用频率上保持很高的一致性,但在实际教学中也存在策略运用不足,主要体现在学生自主能力、课堂任务及教师层面等策略上。传统的以教师为中心的教学方法、应试教育、基础差和大班教学很大程度上影响和制约了教师的动机策略,并限制了学生动机的形成与维持。     

Teachers’ knowledge and confidence for promoting positive mental health in primary school communities

This paper reports an investigation into Australian primary school teachers’ knowledge and confidence for mental health promotion. Questionnaires were delivered to 1397 teachers. In-depth interviews were held with 37 teachers. Quantitative results showed that half to two thirds of teachers felt efficacious and knowledgeable about selected components of mental health promotion. Independent judgments by staff about students’ mental health status concurred with students’ scores on the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire in about 75% of cases, indicating a good level of staff awareness about students’ mental health status. Exposure to the KidsMatter Primary mental health promotion initiative was associated with improvements in teachers’ efficacy, knowledge and pedagogy, with small to medium effect sizes. Qualitative analysis indicated that teachers’ subject-matter and pedagogical knowledge were heavily reliant on curriculum resources. Implications of the findings for the implementation of school-based mental health promotion initiatives are discussed.     

Impact on student teachers' conception of learning and teaching from studying a course in educational psychology

This study investigates changes in the conceptions of learning and teaching among undergraduate student teachers. A qualitative content analysis of essays using metaphors to describe learning and teaching written by 256 students at the beginning and end of an educational psychology course was used as the main research procedure. It was found that there was an increase in the share of students that see learning and teaching from a cognitive-constructivist perspective and a decrease in the share that see learning and teaching from a behaviourist perspective by the end of the course. In addition, the study revealed that the coherence in the nature of the metaphors describing learning and teaching increased by the end of the course. However, there was practically no increase in the number of essays describing learning from a socio-constructivist perspective, a fact that points to a need to pay more attention to the manifestations of learning in different communities of students, that is, to a relevant knowledge that teachers need in their everyday work.     

Resistance in action learning: struggling with self-efficacy and the social Self – and what about the set advisor?

This account of practice explores the concept of resistance in action learning. Resistance is conceptualized as an attempt of self-protection that is manifested in action learners' struggles with their sense of self-efficacy and their social Self. These struggles are an inherent part of the action learning process and may elicit defensive undercurrents that constrain learning. I contribute to debates on criticality in action learning by recognizing the centrality of resistance as a source of learning for participants and set advisors. The intended contribution of this paper is to illuminate the importance of engaging with these limiting processes which can spark a powerful learning experience that reverberates long after the action learning programme has finished. Furthermore, I reflect on the opportunities this alternative view on resistance may provide for us as action learning facilitators and discuss how we may incorporate these reflections in our practice.
