In the few available studies on the use of books in examinations, open-book tests have been found to reduce pre-test memorization and anxiety during examinations without affecting academic performance. However, these studies were made with students in non-book systems, whereas systems which allowed books in all exams might be thought likely to create a non-fact-learning attitude in students. The present study was undertaken in a book-allowing system with 120 students during a regular course in physiology at a medical school. Each group sat two parallel 60-item multiple choice tests and used books in one test but not in the other. The tests took place about four weeks prior to the final examination, which is of the same type as the experimental tests. Recall items could yield less than 15% of maximum points, so that interpretation and problem-solving items predominated. Total test points with and without books did not differ significantly. An analysis of variance showed that the effect of books on recall items was only slight and that the two tests varied in difficulty, in spite of efforts to secure equality. 相似文献

This article argues that there is a double problem in international research in cultural capital and educational attainment: an empirical problem, since few new insights have been gained within recent years; and a theoretical problem, since cultural capital is seen as a simple hypothesis about certain isolated individual resources, disregarding the structural vision and important related concepts such as field in Bourdieu’s sociology. We (re-)emphasize the role of field theory in cultural capital research in education, taking into consideration current concerns in international quantitative research. 相似文献

Mathematics homework is an activity done by large numbers of students across the world. However, it is not without controversy,
with concerns being raised about its academic value and whether parents have the appropriate resources to actively support
or teach their children. In this article, we use the narratives of two 10-year-old girls to consider how emotional and mathematical
trauma can arise from doing mathematics homework with family help. This is often the undiscussed outcome of homework interactions,
but one that can have profound implications for relationships between children, their parents, the school and mathematics
as a discipline. The way that the children described their and other participants’ actions in the narratives provided information
about the children’s agency whilst doing school mathematics in the home. We discuss the opportunities and constraints on children
doing homework as a consequence of the social and institutional relations that they operate within. The constraining influence
of schooling over the opportunities provided within the home situations was the main determiner of the emotional and mathematical
trauma experienced by the children. 相似文献
