The University Life Experience (ULE) scale was created to determine how students utilize their time between academic (class and preparatory) and non-academic (work, social, leisure, and health) activities. In addition to the ULE, 239 undergraduate students completed inventories assessing academic resourcefulness, academic self-efficacy, and university adaptation and satisfaction, along with single item questions asking about perceived academic and non-academic balance and commitment to completing one’s degree. Results indicated that total number of hours spent per week in various non-academic activities was unrelated to most of the variables including academic hours, whereas the number of hours spent per week in academic activities was positively associated with the psychosocial variables and a unique predictor of academic resourcefulness and cumulative grades. Moreover, academic resourcefulness was observed to moderate the relationship between perceived balance and academic hours, such that the average number of hours spent engaged in academic activities per week was greater for students scoring high in academic resourcefulness regardless of whether they had low or high perceptions of balance, especially compared to those students who scored low in both academic resourcefulness and perceived balance. The results suggest that teaching students requisite academic resourcefulness skills to deal with academic challenges assists them in increasing focus on their academic studies as opposed to non-academic activities.
创建大学生活体验(ULE)量表是为了确定学生如何利用学术(课堂和准备)和非学术(工作、社交、休闲和健康)活动之间的时间。除了ULE之外,239名本科生完成了评估学术智谋、学术自我效能、大学适应和满意度的问卷,以及关于学术和非学术平衡以及完成学位的承诺的单项问题。结果表明,每周花在各种非学术活动上的总时数与包括学习时数在内的大多数变量无关,而每周花在学术活动上的时数与心理社会变量呈正相关,并且是学习机智和累积成绩的独特预测因子。此外,学术机智被观察到调节感知平衡和学习时间之间的关系,例如,学术机智得分高的学生每周花在学术活动上的平均时间更多,无论他们的平衡感知是低还是高,特别是与那些学术机智和感知平衡得分低的学生相比。结果表明,教授学生应对学术挑战所需的学术机智技能有助于他们更加关注学术研究,而不是非学术活动。

In this playful meditation on academic pronouns, I report on my research findings from three separate studies: a 2007 analysis of pronoun usage patterns in recent higher education articles; a 2017 analysis of pronoun usage patterns in Teaching and Learning Inquiry since the founding of the journal in 2013; and an updated 2017 analysis of the same five higher education journals examined a decade earlier.  You may be surprised by the results.  However, we are not inclined to reveal the whole story here in the abstract.  It is the conviction of the author that the present article must be read in its entirety in order to be fully appreciated.
在这篇关于学术代词的有趣思考中,我报告了我从三项独立研究中得出的研究结果:2007年对最近高等教育文章中代词使用模式的分析;《教学探究》杂志2013年创刊以来2017年代词使用模式分析;以及2017年对十年前审查的五份高等教育期刊的最新分析。你可能会对结果感到惊讶。然而,我们不倾向于在这里抽象地揭示整个故事。提交人坚信,本条必须全文阅读才能得到充分赞赏。

Why do not academic teachers more frequently use results from education, psychology, cognitive sciences, and related fields while planning, carrying out, and evaluating teaching? It has been argued that if only they did, education would improve. It has further been argued that results from these fields are not communicated in ways suitable for teachers from other disciplines, and therefore there is a need for translation. If the results from these fields were translated, it has been proposed, their use would increase with positive effects on education. A question remains: who should do the translation? This study investigates whether early career academics in engineering and technology can find, translate, and make relevant use of research into education, psychology, and related fields within written reports. Results show they can. Therefore, it is argued, translation itself will not increase the use of this type of research. Other explanations for the problem are discussed.
为什么学术教师在规划、实施和评估教学时不更频繁地使用教育、心理学、认知科学和相关领域的成果?有人认为,只要他们这样做,教育就会改善。有人进一步认为,这些领域的成果没有以适合其他学科教师的方式进行交流,因此需要翻译。有人提出,如果这些领域的成果得到翻译,它们的使用将增加,对教育产生积极影响。还有一个问题:谁来翻译?本研究调查了工程和技术领域的早期学者是否能够在书面报告中找到、翻译并相关利用教育、心理学和相关领域的研究。结果表明他们可以。因此,有人认为,翻译本身不会增加这类研究的使用。对这个问题的其他解释也进行了讨论。

As internet access and use increase exponentially, pedagogical practice becomes increasingly embedded in online platforms. We report on an online initiative of engaged student learning, the peer-led, staff-assisted e-helpdesk for research methods and statistics, which we evaluated and redeveloped using the lens and guiding principles of the framework for partnership in learning and teaching of the Higher Education Academy (HEA). The aim of the redevelopment was to steer the initiative towards a more integrative and sustainable implementation, as manifest in the applied construct of an online partnership learning community. Our evolving experience of the e-helpdesk highlighted the central role of the facilitator in engineering and maintaining social presence in the online community. We propose an extended model for building an online partnership learning community, whereby partnership encapsulates all the essential elements of student and staff partnership as outlined in the HEA framework, but is also critically defined by similar parameters of partnership between users and facilitators. In this model, the facilitator’s role becomes more involved in instructional teaching as disciplinary expertise increases, but descending levels of disciplinary expertise can foster ascending levels of independent learning and shared discovery for both users and facilitators.
随着互联网的接入和使用呈指数增长,教学实践越来越多地嵌入在线平台。我们报告了一项关于参与式学生学习的在线倡议,即由同行领导、工作人员协助的研究方法和统计电子帮助台,我们使用高等教育学院(HEA)学习和教学伙伴关系框架的视角和指导原则对其进行了评估和重新开发。重新开发的目的是引导主动性朝着更加综合和可持续的实施方向发展,正如在线合作学习社区的应用结构所体现的那样。我们在电子帮助台方面不断发展的经验突出了促进者在工程和维护在线社区中的社会存在方面的核心作用。我们提出了一个建立在线伙伴关系学习社区的扩展模型,其中伙伴关系包含了HEA框架中概述的学生和员工伙伴关系的所有基本要素,但也由用户和促进者之间的类似伙伴关系参数严格定义。在这个模型中,随着学科专业知识的增加,引导者的角色在教学中变得更加重要,但学科专业知识的下降水平可以促进用户和引导者的自主学习和共享发现水平的上升。

The 3M National Teaching Fellowship is a national teaching award program that has recognized over 300 teachers at more than 80 Canadian universities for their teaching excellence and outstanding educational leadership. Despite its rich, 30 plus-year history, its impact has remained largely anecdotal. In this study, we build on Hannah and Lester’s (2009) original, multilevel approach that looks at interactions between the individual, network, and systems levels to explore the impact of the 3M National Teaching Fellowship program on furthering and enriching teaching and learning in higher education. Through the analysis of a large collection of program artefacts corroborated with in-depth interviews with 11 fellows (key informants), we were able to gain a deeper understanding of the ways in which the program has had impact at the individual (micro), departmental (meso), institutional (macro), and national/international (mega) levels. In this article, we outline our scholarly exploration of the program’s influence and explore its role as a high-impact community of practice in higher education.
3M国家教学奖学金是一项国家教学奖励计划,表彰了80多所加拿大大学的300多名教师的卓越教学和杰出的教育领导力。尽管它有着30多年的丰富历史,但其影响在很大程度上仍然是轶事。在这项研究中,我们建立在Hannah和Lester(2009)独创的多层次方法的基础上,该方法着眼于个人、网络和系统层面之间的互动,以探索3M国家教学奖学金计划对进一步丰富高等教育教学的影响。通过对大量项目人工制品的分析,以及对11名研究员(关键线人)的深入采访,我们能够更深入地了解该项目在个人(微观)、部门(中观)、机构(宏观)和国家/国际(宏观)层面产生影响的方式。在这篇文章中,我们概述了我们对该项目影响的学术探索,并探讨了它作为高等教育中一个具有高度影响力的实践社区的作用。

Enhancing Student Engagement through an Institutional Blended Learning Initiative: a Case Study 通过机构混合学习倡议提高学生参与度:案例研究
IF 1 Q2 EDUCATION & EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH Pub Date : 2018-09-25 DOI: 10.20343/TEACHLEARNINQU.6.2.8
B. Ravenscroft, Ulemu Luhanga
Tertiary education institutions grapple with how to better engage students in their learning in high-enrolment, introductory courses. This paper presents a case study that examines a large-scale, faculty-level course redesign project in which this challenge was addressed through the use of blended learning models. The main research question was: Are students in blended formats engaged in their learning differently than those in the traditional formats? The first part of this paper describes the institutional policies, processes, and practices that were established to implement the course redesign project. The second part of the paper focuses on the effectiveness of the project, presenting the results of a longitudinal research study that examined changes in student engagement using the Classroom Survey of Student Engagement (CLASSE). The implications of the longitudinal evaluation and institutional strategy, structure, and support components are examined critically, as well as the project’s impact on students and on the larger university.
高等教育机构正在努力解决如何更好地让学生参与高入学率入门课程的学习。本文提出了一个案例研究,该研究考察了一个大规模的、教员级的课程重新设计项目,其中通过使用混合学习模式解决了这一挑战。主要的研究问题是:混合教学模式下的学生在学习过程中是否与传统教学模式下的学生有所不同?本文的第一部分描述了为实施课程重新设计项目而建立的制度政策、流程和实践。论文的第二部分侧重于该项目的有效性,展示了一项纵向研究的结果,该研究使用学生参与度课堂调查(CLASSE)来检查学生参与度的变化。纵向评估和机构战略,结构和支持组件的含义进行了严格审查,以及项目对学生和更大的大学的影响。

Making Meaning from Student Evaluations of Teaching (SETs)–Seeing beyond our own horizons 从学生对教学的评价中获得意义——超越我们自己的视野

Within postsecondary education, the assessment of effective teaching has largely relied upon student evaluations of teaching. However, the process through which teachers make sense of their student evaluations is unclear. A research team of six undergraduate nursing students and four nursing educators explored the research question: How do nursing educators make meaning from their student evaluations of teaching? Gadamerian hermeneutics guided unstructured interviews with nursing educators working at a Middle East campus of a Canadian university. The interview transcripts were interpreted through a process of naive readings, rereadings, interpretive dialogues, and interpretive writing that generated the following hermeneutic interpretations: Teachers make meaning of their student evaluation through generalized subjective characterizations of students and through their expressed intentions for their teacher-student relationships. Some of these characterizations and expressed intentions obscured what truths could be learned from the student evaluations of teaching. The experience of receiving critical student feedback invoked a personal response, at the same time, paradoxically, teachers worked hard to “not take it personally.” We suggest the practice of deep listening as a way to understand students’ feedback. The main takeaway message from this research is that teachers need a supportive and sustaining community of peers who are also open to listening deeply to the truths embedded in student evaluations of teaching.
在高等教育中,有效教学的评估在很大程度上依赖于学生对教学的评价。然而,教师理解学生评价的过程尚不清楚。一个由6名本科护理学生和4名护理教育者组成的研究小组探讨了一个研究问题:护理教育者如何从学生对教学的评价中获得意义?Gadamerian诠释学指导了在加拿大大学中东校区工作的护理教育工作者的非结构化访谈。访谈记录通过朴素阅读、重读、解释性对话和解释性写作的过程进行解读,产生了以下解释性解读:教师通过对学生的广义主观描述和对师生关系的表达意图来理解学生评价。其中一些描述和表达的意图掩盖了从学生对教学的评价中可以了解到的真相。收到学生批评反馈的经历引起了个人的反应,与此同时,矛盾的是,老师们努力“不把它当作针对个人的”。我们建议将深度倾听作为理解学生反馈的一种方法。从这项研究中得到的主要信息是,教师需要一个支持和持续的同伴社区,他们也愿意深入倾听学生对教学评价中的真相。

Unifying SoTL Methodology: Internal and External Validity 统一SoTL方法论:内部有效性与外部有效性
IF 1 Q2 EDUCATION & EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH Pub Date : 2018-09-25 DOI: 10.20343/TEACHLEARNINQU.6.2.9
J. Bernstein
A broad consensus exists that the use of appropriate methods are important in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning. However, methodological controversies arise around what constitutes acceptable evidence, if one needs a control group, how generalizable results must be, and other similar issues. Much SoTL work, I argue, asks questions about how much a particular treatment (innovation) caused an effect (student learning), and how the results found in one particular context can be extended outside that context (generalizability). These concepts, known as internal validity and external validity, respectively, provide a common point of departure for much scholarship on teaching and learning. This paper addresses these concepts and demonstrates how they can unite much of what divides us within the methodological realm of SoTL.
广泛的共识是,在教与学的学术研究中,使用适当的方法是很重要的。然而,方法论上的争议出现在什么构成可接受的证据,如果需要一个对照组,结果必须如何推广,以及其他类似的问题上。我认为,很多SoTL工作都在问这样的问题:特定的处理(创新)在多大程度上产生了效果(学生的学习),以及在一个特定环境中发现的结果如何可以扩展到该环境之外(可泛化性)。这两个概念,分别被称为内部效度和外部效度,为许多教与学的学术研究提供了一个共同的出发点。本文讨论了这些概念,并演示了它们如何在SoTL的方法论领域内将我们之间的分歧统一起来。

This paper addresses these concepts and demonstrates how they can unite much of what divides us within the methodological realm of SoTL.","PeriodicalId":44633,"journal":{"name":"Teaching & Learning Inquiry-The ISSOTL Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42613826","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Faculty members participating in a year-long Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) development program experienced various surprises as transformational events. This study is a phenomenological exploration of these surprises. We use Dastur’s (2000) understanding of surprise as a phenomenological event that allows for changed perception and the possibility of a different future through an altered state of being in the world. Four different categories of surprise are explored: surprise that doing SoTL changed teaching, surprises about students, surprises about SoTL and the research process, and finally, surprises about communities and disciplines.
参加为期一年的教学奖学金(SoTL)发展计划的教员们经历了各种各样的转变事件。这项研究是对这些惊喜的现象学探索。我们使用达斯图尔(2000)对惊喜的理解,将其视为一种现象学事件,通过改变世界中的存在状态,改变感知和不同未来的可能性。探索了四类不同的惊喜:SoTL改变教学的惊喜,学生的惊喜,SoTL和研究过程的惊喜,以及社区和学科的惊喜。
