Learning Trajectory Based InstructionEducational Researcher - Tập 41 Số 5 - Trang 147-156 - 2012
Paola Sztajn, Jere Confrey, P. Holt Wilson, Cynthia Edgington
In this article, we propose a theoretical connection between research on
learning and research on teaching through recent research on students’ learning
trajectories (LTs). We define learning trajectory based instruction (LTBI) as
teaching that uses students’ LTs as the basis for instructional decisions. We
use mathematics as the context for our argument, first examining current
research on LTs an... hiện toàn bộ
Meaning and Values in Test Validation: The Science and Ethics of AssessmentEducational Researcher - Tập 18 Số 2 - Trang 5-11 - 1989
Samuel Messick
Because both score meaning and the value implications of scores as a basis for
action are central issues in test validation, a unified view of validity is
required that comprehends both the scientific and the ethical underpinnings of
test interpretation and use. This unified concept of validity integrates
considerations of content, criteria, and consequences into a construct framework
for testing ... hiện toàn bộ
Research–Practice Partnerships in EducationEducational Researcher - Tập 45 Số 1 - Trang 48-54 - 2016
Cynthia E. Coburn, William R. Penuel
Policymakers, funders, and researchers today view research–practice partnerships
(RPPs) as a promising approach for expanding the role of research in improving
educational practice. Although studies in other fields provide evidence of the
potential for RPPs, studies in education are few. This article provides a review
of available evidence of the outcomes and dynamics of RPPs in education and
rela... hiện toàn bộ
The Development of Expertise: The Journey From Acclimation to ProficiencyEducational Researcher - Tập 32 Số 8 - Trang 10-14 - 2003
Patricia A. Alexander
The Model of Domain Learning (MDL) is an alternative perspective on expertise
that arose from studies of student learning in academic domains, such as
reading, history, physics, and biology. A comparison of the MDL and traditional
models of expertise is made. The key components and stages of the MDL are then
overviewed. Discussion concludes with a consideration of evidence-based
implications of th... hiện toàn bộ
What Can Research on Teacher Thinking Contribute to Teacher Preparation? A Second OpinionEducational Researcher - Tập 19 Số 5 - Trang 15-20 - 1990
Robert E. Floden, Hans Gerhard Klinzing
Recent reviews suggest that research can only provide teacher educators with
food for thought, observational methods, and rationales for current practice.
Although each of those contributions is valuable, research on teaching and
teacher education can provide even more. It is inappropriate to turn research
results into teaching prescriptions and teacher-testing systems, but research
knowledge stil... hiện toàn bộ
Teachers' and Students' Cognitional Knowledge for Classroom Teaching and LearningEducational Researcher - Tập 17 Số 5 - Trang 5-14 - 1988
Penelope L. Peterson
An emerging image of the teacher as “thoughtful professional” suggests the need
for researchers to study teachers’ and students’ cognitions in addition to
teacher behavior, student behavior, and student achievement. This article
presents an initial conceptualization of how teachers' and students' cognitions
and knowledge mediate effective teaching. Subject matter content and teacher and
student kn... hiện toàn bộ
Coh-MetrixEducational Researcher - Tập 40 Số 5 - Trang 223-234 - 2011
Arthur C. Graesser, Danielle S. McNamara, Jonna M. Kulikowich
Computer analyses of text characteristics are often used by reading teachers,
researchers, and policy makers when selecting texts for students. The authors of
this article identify components of language, discourse, and cognition that
underlie traditional automated metrics of text difficulty and their new
Coh-Metrix system. Coh-Metrix analyzes texts on multiple measures of language
and discourse t... hiện toàn bộ
