ABSTRACT Background The transition of high school students to higher education can be an overwhelming experience which may impact on academic outcomes. Despite increases in access, course completion rates remain problematic in Chile. Students’ expectations of higher education can play an important role in their decision-making, especially in terms of choices made about programme and institution. Purpose The purpose of this study was to better understand Chilean high school students’ expectations of the benefits and costs involved in the transition process from secondary to postsecondary education. Also, it aimed to examine the factors that influence those expectations. Method We used a qualitative design to collect information from 76 university-tracked high-school seniors through nine focus groups. All focus group data were double coded using a directed content analysis approach. Findings The analysis indicated that students mentioned expectations of non-monetary benefits frequently, and in all focus groups. Though monetary benefits were not referred to directly, students identified them implicitly through non-monetary benefits. Expectations about costs were mentioned less often than were benefits. Conclusions Our study highlights that the construction of expectations appeared chiefly influenced by the information obtained through family and peers. The findings from this study should help focus institutional and educational policymakers’ efforts in supporting the decision-making process of students transitioning to higher education.
摘要背景高中生向高等教育的过渡可能是一种压倒性的经历,可能会影响学业成绩。尽管获得的机会有所增加,但智利的课程完成率仍然存在问题。学生对高等教育的期望可以在他们的决策中发挥重要作用,特别是在选择课程和机构方面。本研究的目的是为了更好地了解智利高中生对从中学到高等教育过渡过程中所涉及的收益和成本的期望。此外,它还旨在研究影响这些预期的因素。方法采用定性设计,通过9个焦点小组对76名大学高中毕业生进行信息收集。使用定向内容分析方法对所有焦点小组数据进行双重编码。分析表明,在所有的焦点小组中,学生都经常提到对非金钱利益的期望。虽然没有直接提到金钱利益,但学生通过非金钱利益隐含地识别了它们。成本预期被提及的频率低于收益预期。结论期望的构建主要受家庭和同伴信息的影响。本研究的结果应有助于机构和教育决策者集中精力,支持学生向高等教育过渡的决策过程。

ABSTRACT Background With increasing recognition of the importance of lifelong learning, the skill of reflection has become ever more significant, especially in higher education. However, the quality of student reflection can vary and, when students are tasked with reflecting, an assumption is often made that they automatically understand how to reflect. As students continue to grapple with the act of reflecting, and the culture of being critically reflective, there is a need for greater understanding of students’ perceptions of reflection and the challenges encountered. Purpose The purpose of this small-scale, in-depth study was to understand the student perspective by inviting students to talk about reflection. There was a particular focus on exploring views and experiences from the standpoints of those directly undergoing and navigating the process. Method In this qualitative study, the participants were 11 undergraduate students from a university in Malaysia. The students completed a questionnaire and were then interviewed by the researcher. The data collected were analysed using a thematic approach. Findings Two core themes and six subthemes emerged from the data analysis: (1) views of reflection – initial experiences, understanding of reflection and transition; (2) challenges faced – the need for more process-focused feedback, vulnerability in reflection and inaction in reflection. The findings are discussed with relevant examples from the data. Conclusions The findings highlighted how reflection can be perceived as an ambiguous task, subject to a variety of interpretations. From the students’ viewpoint, reflection was often characterised as a product which was single-layered (non-iterative) and monologic, rather than iterative and dialogic. Insights offered by this analysis suggest the need for the student perspective to be more deeply understood and considered contextually, with the aim of designing teaching to better support and strengthen a reflective learning approach.
摘要背景随着人们越来越认识到终身学习的重要性,反思技能变得越来越重要,尤其是在高等教育中。然而,学生反思的质量可能会有所不同,当学生被要求反思时,通常会假设他们会自动理解如何反思。随着学生们继续努力应对反思行为和批判性反思的文化,有必要更好地了解学生对反思的看法和遇到的挑战。目的这项小规模、深入的研究旨在通过邀请学生谈论反思来理解学生的观点。特别注重从直接经历和驾驭这一过程的人的角度探讨观点和经验。方法在这项定性研究中,参与者是来自马来西亚一所大学的11名本科生。学生们完成了一份调查问卷,然后接受了研究人员的采访。采用专题方法对收集到的数据进行了分析。研究结果数据分析产生了两个核心主题和六个子主题:(1)反思观——最初的经历、对反思和过渡的理解;(2) 面临的挑战–需要更多以过程为中心的反馈、反思中的脆弱性和反思中的不作为。研究结果与数据中的相关例子进行了讨论。结论研究结果强调了反思是如何被视为一项模棱两可的任务的,可以受到各种各样的解释。从学生的角度来看,反思往往被描述为一种单层(非迭代)和单一逻辑的产品,而不是迭代和对话的产品。该分析提供的见解表明,需要更深入地理解和考虑学生的观点,目的是设计教学,以更好地支持和加强反思性学习方法。

ABSTRACT Background Many countries around the world imposed nationwide school closures to manage the spread of COVID-19. England closed its schools for most pupils in March 2020 and prepared to reopen schools to certain year groups in June 2020. Understanding teachers’ lived experiences at this time of educational disruption is important, shedding light on challenges faced and support needed by schools and teachers in the event of further disruption. Purpose The research reported here represents the second timepoint in a longitudinal study investigating what it was like being a teacher in England during the pandemic. Our aim was to better understand teachers’ experiences at a time of partial reopening of schools in mid-June 2020. Method We used the framework of Self-Determination Theory to explore challenges to teachers’ basic psychological needs for autonomy, competence and relatedness. A total of 24 primary and secondary state school teachers from 20 schools across England were interviewed and asked to tell stories of a low point, a high point and a turning point. A reflexive thematic analysis, using a mix of inductive and deductive coding, was conducted. Findings Six themes were identified in the data: uncertainty, practical concerns, worry for pupils, importance of relationships, teacher identity, and reflections. Challenging their basic need for autonomy and competence, teachers were anxious about current and future uncertainties while navigating school reopenings. Challenging their basic need for relatedness, teachers described the importance of connecting with pupils and their families, and with colleagues. Lastly, teachers searched for holistic meaning, evaluating what it means to be a teacher and reflecting on how these circumstances have affected their personal and professional lives. Conclusions Our analysis of teachers’ experiences provides insight into how teachers’ psychological needs for autonomy, competence and relatedness have been challenged. It highlights the importance of supporting teachers to feel autonomous, competent and connected with colleagues, pupils and their families. Such support is likely to be beneficial to teachers’ wellbeing and their commitment to the profession, now and in the future.
背景为控制COVID-19的传播,世界上许多国家在全国范围内实施了学校关闭。英国于2020年3月关闭了大多数学生的学校,并准备在2020年6月重新开放某些年级的学校。了解教师在这一教育中断时期的生活经历非常重要,这有助于了解学校和教师在发生进一步中断时所面临的挑战和所需的支持。本文报道的研究代表了一项纵向研究的第二个时间点,该研究调查了大流行期间英国教师的情况。我们的目标是更好地了解教师在2020年6月中旬部分学校重新开学时的经历。方法运用自我决定理论的框架,探讨教师自主性、胜任性和亲缘性等基本心理需求面临的挑战。来自英国20所学校的24名中小学教师接受了采访,并被要求讲述自己的低谷、高潮和转折点。一个反身性的主题分析,使用归纳和演绎编码的混合,进行。数据中确定了六个主题:不确定性、实际问题、对学生的担忧、关系的重要性、教师身份和反思。教师们对自主和能力的基本需求提出了挑战,在学校重新开学的时候,他们对当前和未来的不确定性感到焦虑。老师们描述了与学生及其家人以及同事联系的重要性,挑战了他们对人际关系的基本需求。最后,教师们寻找整体意义,评估作为一名教师意味着什么,并反思这些环境如何影响他们的个人和职业生活。通过对教师经验的分析,我们可以了解到教师的自主性、能力和亲缘性心理需求是如何受到挑战的。它强调了支持教师感到自主、胜任以及与同事、学生和他们的家庭联系的重要性。无论是现在还是将来,这种支持都可能有利于教师的福祉和他们对职业的承诺。

ABSTRACT Background For education to be underpinned deeply by the principles of inclusion and interculturality, there is a need for school to be reconceptualised as an institution which is strongly linked to its territory and capable of being an agent of social change. As part of a wider project exploring processes of democratic participation for social transformation, this article reports on a research study that supported schools to review and reformulate their educational practices through a school-based Participatory Action Research (PAR) project. Purpose The study sought to support participating schools to examine, review and transform practices by using participatory social diagnosis (PSD) strategies. In particular, it aimed to explore the ways in which PSD practices enabled the review of practices linked to territory, encouraging a process of transformative participation towards inclusion. Method Through participatory projects across four infant (3- to 6-year-old pupils) and primary (6- to 12-year-old pupils) schools in different locations in Spain, case studies were developed to examine participation and community building in the context of each case. Data, including recordings of focus group sessions, were transcribed and analysed qualitatively, using content analysis techniques. Findings Across the four case studies, analysis suggested that, in a variety of ways, spaces and times were created for shared reflection, and participatory techniques generated creative forms available to the entire community to contribute to the analysis and transformation of practices. The findings indicated that PAR techniques had enabled a means of participation that led to a process of circulation and collective production of knowledge, allowing a rethinking of inclusion and territory. Conclusions : Our small scale, in-depth study highlights the implications of opening up participatory spaces with regard to the concept of community, social change and territory. This research may provide insights for future researchers and school communities with similar goals of changing educational practices to address participation from an inclusive and intercultural approach.
摘要背景要想让教育以包容和跨文化原则为基础,就需要将学校重新定义为一个与其领土紧密相连、能够成为社会变革推动者的机构。作为探索民主参与社会变革进程的更广泛项目的一部分,本文报告了一项研究,该研究支持学校通过学校参与行动研究(标准杆数)项目审查和重新制定其教育实践。目的本研究旨在支持参与学校通过使用参与式社会诊断(PSD)策略来检查、审查和转变实践。特别是,它旨在探索私营部门司的做法如何能够审查与领土有关的做法,鼓励变革性参与,实现包容性。方法通过在西班牙不同地区的四所婴儿(3至6岁学生)和小学(6至12岁学生)的参与性项目,制定案例研究,以考察每个案例中的参与和社区建设。使用内容分析技术对包括焦点小组会议记录在内的数据进行了转录和定性分析。在四个案例研究中,分析表明,以各种方式,空间和时间是为了共同反思而创造的,参与式技术产生了整个社区都可以使用的创造性形式,有助于实践的分析和转变。研究结果表明,标准杆数技术促成了一种参与手段,导致了知识的流通和集体生产过程,从而能够重新思考包容和领土问题。结论:我们的小规模深入研究强调了开放参与空间对社区、社会变革和领土概念的影响。这项研究可能会为未来的研究人员和学校社区提供见解,他们有着类似的目标,即改变教育实践,从包容性和跨文化的方法解决参与问题。

ABSTRACT Background: ‘Learning to Learn’ (L2L) is considered a key skill for the twenty-first century. It is understood here as a hyper-competence, which mobilises resources of the individual and/or groups in a sense-making effort to improve or update one’s own learning. By means of classroom assessment during the teaching-learning cycle, teachers can promote this competence in their daily practice. This paper focuses on the L2L–assessment relationship, presenting data from an international qualitative research project conducted in Brazil, Ecuador, Italy, Mexico, Spain and Uruguay from a comparative perspective. Purpose: The study sought to explore the relationship between teachers’ L2L conceptualisations and their assessments in a sample of preschool, primary and secondary school teachers. Key questions addressed were: how did interviewed teachers define L2L? What, if any, was the connection between teachers’ assessment methods and their own L2L definition? Methods: The analysis drew on data collected from 123 interviews with teachers, deploying a qualitative descriptive approach. L2L definitions were classified as broad or narrow according to Hounsell. A connection was assigned to each interview depending on whether teachers’ assessment and L2L responses included aspects related to L2L theory. Findings and conclusion: Around one-third of interviewees provided a definition of L2L consistent with the intended purposes of assessments that contribute to the development of L2L. Approximately one-fifth was classified with partial connection and almost half was classified as showing no connection. The L2L–assessment relationship is explored in terms of similarities and differences between countries. Overall, the study draws attention to the need for increasing teacher awareness of the L2L–assessment connection during initial and in-service teacher education, in order for teachers to develop assessment practices conducive to L2L.
摘要背景:“学会学习”(L2L)被认为是21世纪的一项关键技能。在这里,它被理解为一种超能力,在某种意义上调动个人和/或群体的资源,努力改进或更新自己的学习。通过在教学周期中的课堂评估,教师可以在日常实践中提高这种能力。本文侧重于L2L-评估关系,从比较的角度介绍了在巴西、厄瓜多尔、意大利、墨西哥、西班牙和乌拉圭进行的一个国际定性研究项目的数据。目的:本研究以学前、小学和中学教师为样本,探讨教师的L2L概念及其评估之间的关系。解决的关键问题是:受访教师如何定义L2L?如果有的话,教师的评估方法和他们自己的L2L定义之间有什么联系?方法:该分析采用了123次教师访谈的数据,采用了定性描述性方法。根据Hounsell的说法,L2L的定义分为广义或狭义。根据教师的评估和L2L回答是否包括与L2L理论相关的方面,为每次面试分配了一个联系。调查结果和结论:大约三分之一的受访者提供了与有助于L2L发展的评估的预期目的一致的L2L定义。大约五分之一被归类为部分连接,几乎一半被归类为无连接。L2L-评估关系是从国家之间的相似性和差异性的角度来探讨的。总体而言,该研究提请注意,在初始和在职教师教育期间,有必要提高教师对L2L-评估联系的认识,以便教师制定有利于L2L的评估实践。

ABSTRACT Background Assessment for learning (AfL) discourses and practices have gained popularity globally, as educational policies and ideas are transferred across borders. An important area of investigation is how AfL may be construed and enacted differently, according to context. Purpose By examining how teachers in Singapore understand and use AfL – a core principle embedded within differentiated instruction – this study explores how context influences assessment, learning and teaching beliefs and practices. Method As part of a larger study of how 10 public school teachers in Singapore understand and use differentiated instruction, the research reported here adopted a qualitative approach to elucidate teachers’ lived experiences. Data, which were analysed thematically, included 10 questionnaires, 30 semi-structured interviews, 39 lesson observation logs and pre- and post-lesson observation interviews. Findings The analysis identified three themes: (i) teaching and learning for Assessment of Learning (AoL) rather than AfL, (ii) teacher-directed rather than learner-driven AfL practices and (iii) behaviourist approaches in teaching and assessment practices. The finding suggested that teachers in Singapore face tensions as personal beliefs and practices around teaching, learning and assessment collide and/or coexist with their sociocultural and educational contexts. Conclusions Rather than assuming that educational ideas like AfL are acontextual or represent a ‘best practice’ that transfers easily across countries, scholars, policymakers and educators would benefit from considering more fully how AfL is a ‘situated’ concept, and reflecting more deeply on the complex interplay between source and destination contexts.
摘要:随着教育政策和思想的跨国转移,学习背景评估(AfL)话语和实践在全球范围内越来越受欢迎。调查的一个重要领域是如何根据上下文对AfL进行不同的解释和实施。目的通过考察新加坡教师如何理解和使用AfL——差异化教学中的核心原则——本研究探讨了情境如何影响评估、学习和教学信念与实践。方法作为对新加坡10名公立学校教师如何理解和使用差异化教学的更大规模研究的一部分,本文采用定性方法来阐明教师的生活经历。按主题分析的数据包括10份问卷、30份半结构化访谈、39份课堂观察日志以及课前和课后观察访谈。研究结果分析确定了三个主题:(i)为学习评估而教学(AoL)而非AfL,(ii)教师指导而非学习者驱动的AfL实践,以及(iii)教学和评估实践中的行为主义方法。研究结果表明,新加坡教师面临着紧张局势,因为他们在教学、学习和评估方面的个人信仰和实践与其社会文化和教育背景相冲突和/或共存。结论学者、政策制定者和教育工作者将受益于更充分地考虑AfL是一个“情境”概念,并更深入地反思来源和目的地背景之间的复杂相互作用,而不是假设像AfL这样的教育理念是相互关联的,或代表一种容易在各国之间传播的“最佳实践”。

ABSTRACT Background: The decline of young people’s wellbeing in the UK and elsewhere has become an increasing focus for attention. In this context, it is encouraging to note some evidence suggesting that participation in extracurricular activities may have potential to improve wellbeing. However, the considerable conceptual and methodological challenges involved in the measurement of constructs within this non-traditional assessment domain should be recognised. Purpose: Against this backdrop, we report on the development of a survey to measure the contribution of taking part in extracurricular activities on young people’s subjective wellbeing and associated soft skills. Methods: Participants (N = 4,638) were a sample of young people enrolled in a well-known extracurricular award programme in the UK: The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award (DofE). They completed a self-report survey which had been developed to address key areas relevant to the DofE and wellbeing, such as: resilience and overcoming adversity, confidence and self-esteem, and working with others and communication. Data were analysed quantitatively. Findings: Factor analysis confirmed a reliable three-factor structure of the measure, which produced patterns of results comparable to existing research on wellbeing. The identified factors were ‘General Wellbeing’, ‘Resilience and Confidence’, and ‘Communication (including Leadership and Teamwork)’. Participants largely reported that taking part in DofE activities had improved their wellbeing through increasing confidence, responsibility and their ability to face challenges. Conclusions: We suggest that both the survey outlined here and the process of development could be used to facilitate more reliable and valid measurements of wellbeing and related soft skills outside of traditional classroom settings. The findings, whilst relating here specifically to the DofE in the UK, will be of interest to policymakers, school leaders and educators internationally who are considering what young people need to build and maintain wellbeing, and thus thrive in life.
摘要背景:在英国和其他地方,年轻人幸福感的下降已经成为人们越来越关注的焦点。在这种情况下,令人鼓舞的是,有证据表明,参加课外活动可能有助于改善幸福感。然而,应认识到在这一非传统评估领域内测量结构所涉及的相当大的概念和方法挑战。目的:在这种背景下,我们报告了一项调查的发展情况,该调查旨在衡量参加课外活动对年轻人主观幸福感和相关软技能的贡献。方法:参与者(N=4638)是英国一个著名的课外奖励项目:爱丁堡公爵奖(DofE)的年轻人样本。他们完成了一项自我报告调查,该调查旨在解决与国防部和福祉相关的关键领域,如:韧性和克服逆境、信心和自尊、与他人合作和沟通。对数据进行了定量分析。研究结果:因子分析证实了该测量的可靠的三因子结构,其产生的结果模式与现有的幸福感研究相当。确定的因素包括“总体健康”、“韧性和信心”以及“沟通(包括领导力和团队合作)”。参与者大多报告说,通过增强信心、责任感和面对挑战的能力,参加国防部的活动改善了他们的幸福感。结论:我们建议,这里概述的调查和发展过程都可以用来促进在传统课堂环境之外对幸福感和相关软技能进行更可靠和有效的测量。这些发现虽然与英国教育部有关,但会引起国际政策制定者、学校领导和教育工作者的兴趣,他们正在考虑年轻人需要什么来建立和保持幸福感,从而在生活中茁壮成长。

ABSTRACT Background: The assessment of cross-curricular skills is gaining attention in many countries. In Japan, the ‘Information Literacy Survey for Upper Secondary Students’ (the ILSUS) was designed to measure information literacy through Computer-Based Testing (CBT). It was the first large-scale survey based on Item Response Theory (IRT) implemented by Japan’s Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT). Purpose: This paper reports on the history and development of the survey and discusses its findings. As ‘information literacy’ is a generic and cross-curricular ability, we measured cognitive ability relating to how information can be utilised for problem-solving. Main argument: We present some released survey items that were actually used in the ILSUS, to explain how the items covered three aspects of ‘information literacy’. Using proficiency levels, we discuss what the findings indicated about the features of the students’ ‘information literacy’: it was evident that, whilst many had the ability to deal with complex and large amounts of information, few were able to address unfamiliar contexts. Then, using questionnaire items from the ILSUS, we report how we determined that ‘information literacy’ was strongly associated with ‘student-teacher relationships’ and ‘meta-cognition’. Conclusion: This account of the ILSUS offers insight into how we measured information literacy and, more widely, the kinds of skills that Japanese education policy is trying to develop. In planning a new Information Literacy Survey (ILS), we will try to capture what has not been clarified yet, such as the trends in information literacy and differences between educational stages. It may ultimately become possible to specify, more clearly, the goals and teaching methods that should be aimed at in the acquisition and teaching of information literacy.
摘要背景:跨学科技能评估在许多国家越来越受到重视。在日本,“高中生信息素养调查”旨在通过计算机测试来衡量信息素养。这是日本文部科学省(MEXT)首次基于项目反应理论(IRT)进行的大规模调查。目的:本文报告了调查的历史和发展,并讨论了调查结果。由于“信息素养”是一种通用的跨课程能力,我们衡量了与如何利用信息解决问题有关的认知能力。主要论点:我们介绍了一些已发布的调查项目,这些项目在ILSUS中实际使用,以解释这些项目如何涵盖“信息素养”的三个方面。利用熟练程度,我们讨论了研究结果对学生“信息素养”特征的指示:很明显,尽管许多人有能力处理复杂和大量的信息,但很少有人能够处理陌生的环境。然后,使用ILSUS的问卷项目,我们报告了我们如何确定“信息素养”与“师生关系”和“元认知”密切相关。结论:ILSUS的这篇报道让我们深入了解了我们如何衡量信息素养,以及更广泛地说,日本教育政策试图培养的技能种类。在规划一项新的信息素养调查(ILS)时,我们将努力捕捉尚未澄清的内容,例如信息素养的趋势和教育阶段之间的差异。最终可能会更明确地规定信息素养的获取和教学目标和教学方法。

ABSTRACT Background: On an annual basis, students across Australia in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9 are assessed on their literacy and numeracy skills via the National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN), with the student performance data used for purposes including national accountability. Purpose: Against this backdrop of large-scale national assessment, this practitioner-research case study explored the possibilities of using existing NAPLAN writing assessment rubrics as a basis for formative assessment purposes. Specifically, the aim was to galvanise and encourage a culture of self-assessment within one school, using the notion of intelligent accountability. Sample: Participants included seven teachers and 126 students in Years 2, 4 and 6 (students aged approximately 7, 9 and 11 years), at an independent school in Northern Territory, Australia. Design and methods: The data presented here derive from a larger study which aimed to explore ways in which assessment can be used to scaffold students’ ability to self-regulate their learning, as part of a classroom writing project. Data sources included planning templates, writing samples, interviews with students and teachers, and email correspondence with teachers. The data were analysed for emerging themes and interpreted within a framework of social cognitive theory. Findings: The analysis identified that students used the self-assessment process to set specific learning goals for developing a number of aspects of their writing. In terms of intelligent accountability, three elements of difference were distinguished: time, confidence and experience. Conclusions: The findings from this study highlight the crucial role of self-assessment within classroom practice. The researcher-practitioner self-assessment framework developed suggests the potential for utilising large-scale assessment rubrics as a basis for formative assessment activity.
摘要背景:每年,澳大利亚3、5、7和9年级的学生都会通过国家识字和算术评估计划(NAPLAN)对其识字和算术技能进行评估,学生表现数据用于包括国家问责制在内的目的。目的:在大规模国家评估的背景下,本从业者研究案例研究探讨了使用现有NAPLAN写作评估准则作为形成性评估目的基础的可能性。具体而言,其目的是利用智能问责制的概念,在一所学校内激发和鼓励自我评估文化。样本:参与者包括澳大利亚北领地一所独立学校的7名教师和126名2、4和6年级的学生(年龄约为7、9和11岁的学生)。设计和方法:本文提供的数据来源于一项更大规模的研究,该研究旨在探索如何利用评估来培养学生自我调节学习的能力,作为课堂写作项目的一部分。数据来源包括计划模板、写作样本、对学生和教师的采访以及与教师的电子邮件通信。对这些数据进行了新出现的主题分析,并在社会认知理论的框架内进行了解释。研究结果:分析发现,学生们使用自我评估过程来设定具体的学习目标,以发展他们写作的多个方面。在智能问责制方面,区分了三个不同因素:时间、信心和经验。结论:本研究的结果突出了自我评估在课堂实践中的关键作用。开发的研究人员-从业者自我评估框架表明,有可能利用大规模评估准则作为形成性评估活动的基础。
