However, there was little agreement on which concepts or ways of working in the social sciences were most fruitful and representative of accepted structure.

Twenty-Five Years: A History Of Claremont Teachers College 1952 - 1977, John A. Mckenzie

Research outputs pre 2011

This book had its beginning in our belief that it was appropriate in celebrating the seventy-fifth anniversary of Claremont Teachers College to record the significant contribution its staff and students have made to the development of Western Australia.

The idea of writing a sequel to Dr Mossenson's history of the first fifty years was endorsed by the College Council and I was given the task of finding a historian who would take on this work.

I found that person in John McKenzie, who had trained and lectured at the college. Mr McKenzie willingly agreed to bring together the strands of …

Findings. The findings of the study substantially …

Selected Personality Constructs As Correlates Of Personnel Appointment, Appraisal, And Mobility In Seventh-Day Adventist Schools, Merle A. Greenway

Method. A demographic questionnaire and the Temperament Inventory were administered to 486 teachers, …

Application For A Change Agent Strategy In Dissemination Of An Australian Innovation, Barry J. Fraser, David L. Smith

Australian Journal of Teacher Education

Several excellent reviews of the general education change and innovation literature exist and this literature indicates that a widely adopted strategy for planned development and dissemination of curriculum innovations has been the Research, Development and Diffusion (RD&D) model. This empirical-rational strategy involves the initial development of teacher-proof curriculum packages followed by mass dissemination which assumes that teachers' adaptation and translation problems have been largely anticipated and accommodated. The RD&D strategy, however, has recently provoked increasing skepticism because teachers and schools often have failed to adopt new curriculum materials, to implement them in ways envisaged by the developers, or to continue …

An Individualized Program For The Learning Resource Center, Marian Woyna

Theses

This project outlines the development and implementation of an individualized program for the Learning Resource Center (LRC) at Roach School. Initiated in response to organizational shifts—including the adoption of the Individually Guided Education (I.G.E.) model, restructuring due to desegregation, and expanded special education services—the program addresses the growing need for differentiated learning opportunities beyond the traditional classroom setting.

Marian Woyna’s work emphasizes a shift from a passive LRC role to an active, instructional one, supporting students across a range of academic abilities and personal interests. Drawing on the theories of confluent education and the Prester Theory of brain function, the …
