School Discipline at a Crossroads: From Zero Tolerance to Early Response
Tập 66 Số 3 - Trang 335-346 - 2000

Dramatic incidents of school violence have thrust school discipline to the forefront of public consciousness. Despite a dramatic increase in the use of zero tolerance procedures and policies, there is little evidence demonstrating that these procedures have increased school safety or improved student behavior. Moreover, a punitive disciplinary climate may make any attempt to include more ...... hiện toàn bộ

This model was field-tested with s...... hiện toàn bộ

Jonathan A. Plucker, Vicki B. Stocking
The internal/external frame of reference model (Marsh, 1986) was proposed to explain the development of academic self-concepts for general ability samples. Recent research calls into question the model's applicability for gifted adolescents' academic self-concept development. This model was examined for 131 adolescents participating in a summer program for academically talented students. ...... hiện toàn bộ
