Connecting Productive Schools And Workplaces For A Knowledge Society, Byrd Jones, Robert Maloy Jun 1994

Connecting Productive Schools And Workplaces For A Knowledge Society, Byrd Jones, Robert Maloy

Robert W. Maloy

As American education struggles to achieve new competencies for an emerging information age, popular reforms remain locked in industrial-era metaphors. Testing for basic skills, teacher professionalism, and school-business collaboration assumes that schooling prepares workers with skills for predictable roles. Meanwhile, computers and related technologies make possible low-cost information that is transforming learning and jobs. Hierarchical organizational structures that subordinated most employees have given way to flatter, flexible teams. Quasi-autonomous decision making by knowledgeable professionals extends to more and more workers. When businesses simply offer schools a few extra resources, they stunt interactive partnerships that enable youth and business cultures to …

Patterns Of Interaction In The Lexical Development In Two Languages Of Bilingual Infants, Barbara Pearson, Sylvia Fernandez Dec 1993

Patterns Of Interaction In The Lexical Development In Two Languages Of Bilingual Infants, Barbara Pearson, Sylvia Fernandez

Barbara Zurer Pearson

We investigated the extent to which bilingual children follow the same patterns and timetable of lexical development as monolinguals. For a group of 20 simultaneous bilingual (English-Spanish) infants, ages 10 to 30 months, we looked at the patterns of growth in one language in relation to growth in the other and also with respect to growth in both languages combined. The MacArthur Communicative Development Inventories (CDI), standardized parent report forms in Spanish and English, provided measures of lexical growth in two languages at varying intervals within the age range. We plotted the two single-language measures, as well as Total and …

Enhancing Professional Competencies In Graduate Education, John C. Smart, Linda Serra Hagedorn Dec 1993

Enhancing Professional Competencies In Graduate Education, John C. Smart, Linda Serra Hagedorn

Linda Serra Hagedorn

The recent spate of national reports criticizing both undergraduate and graduate education (National Endowment 1984; National Institute 1984; Association of American College 1985) has focused on a number of specific educational deficiencies, including an excessive narrowing a the discipline level, insufficient emphasis on academic research and scholarship, and an overemphasis on encyclopedic knowledge. Such criticisms have generated numerous efforts at program improvements by campus officials (Hawley 1989; Klemm 1988). Unfortunately, a dearth of knowledge about the fundamental educational processes of graduate programs has been a serious constraint on efforts to decide which of the numerous improvements will actually enhance student …

Ranking, Evaluating, Liking: Sorting Out Three Forms Of Judgment., Peter Elbow Dec 1993

Ranking, Evaluating, Liking: Sorting Out Three Forms Of Judgment., Peter Elbow

Peter Elbow

Ranking: a one dimensional quantitative judgment--as with grading. A one dimensional quantitative score can never be an accurate reflection of the quality of a multidimensional product (like writing and many other human products).

Evaluation: a multidimensional judgment--using words or providing a multidimensional grid. Judging allows for more trustworthy assessment of writing and many other products.

Liking. This section explores the benefits that come when teachers actually learn to *like* student work--and indeed to like students--and how one can learn to like work even if one judges it to be not very good.

Theory And Practice On Training And Professional Development In Adult And Continuing Education, John A. Henschke Edd Dec 1993

Theory And Practice On Training And Professional Development In Adult And Continuing Education, John A. Henschke Edd

John A. Henschke

Theory and practice in the curriculum for preparation of educators of adults have seldom been addressed in the same places or time frames. Much less, there have been few attempts to bring theory and practice together in any coherent way. Nevertheless, expressions of concern and discontent from adult educators and the general adult populace involved in learning experiences abound which question "why do adult educators violate in their own programs everything that is known about how adults learn?" However, comments of satisfaction with the current situation may prompt one to suggest that theory and practice relationship will not be resolved, …

Impact Of Missed Opportunities To Vaccinate Preschool-Aged Children On Vaccination Levels--Selected Us Cities, David L. Wood, B. Guyer, L. Rodewald, P. Szilagyi, A. Arbeter Dec 1993

Impact Of Missed Opportunities To Vaccinate Preschool-Aged Children On Vaccination Levels--Selected Us Cities, David L. Wood, B. Guyer, L. Rodewald, P. Szilagyi, A. Arbeter

David L. Wood

Vaccination coverage levels among 2-year-old children for each of three routinely recommended vaccines--diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and pertussis (DTP), oral poliovirus (OPV), and measles-mumps-rubella (MMR)--are lower than the national Childhood Immunization Initiative (CII) goal of 90% coverage for these vaccines (1.2). During 1991-1992, CDC awarded contracts to four universities (in Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Baltimore, and Rochester, New York) to conduct evaluations to identify causes of undervaccination, characterize and quantify missed opportunities (MOs) to vaccinate, and assess their programmatic importance. The evaluations targeted high-risk racial/ethnic minority children in inner-city settings in the four urban sites. This report summarizes selected findings* from …

Measurement And Judgment In Curriculum Assessment Systems, Glen Rogers Dec 1993

Measurement And Judgment In Curriculum Assessment Systems, Glen Rogers

Glen Rogers

While educators show increasing interest in performance assessment, many measurement specialists express alarm over implications for increased costs. When we see ourselves as assessment practitioners who are collaboratively working with educators to create integrated assessment systems, however, we must first rethink relationships among our measurement, curriculum development, and institutional assessment goals before we can understand what assessment costs are implied. The quality of the contribution of assessment practitioners depends on their knowing when to pursue measurement, and when instead to facilitate coordinated human judgment.
