Schifter, Deborah; Russell, Susan Jo; Bastable, Virginia – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2009
Since 2001, the authors have been working with groups of teachers to investigate students' early algebraic thinking--learning representations, connections, and generalizations in the elementary school grades. They began paying attention to students' explicit remarks about regularities in the number system or what students imply by their…

Using a Corporate Code of Ethics to Assess Students' Ethicality: Implications for Business Education
Persons, Obeua – Journal of Education for Business, 2009
The author used a corporate code of ethics as a roadmap to create 18 scenarios for assessing business students' ethicality as measured by their behavioral intention. Using a logistic regression analysis, the author also examined 8 factors that could potentially influence students' ethicality. Results indicate 6 scenarios related to 5 areas of the…

Meyers, Eric M.; Fisher, Karen E.; Marcoux, Elizabeth – Library Quarterly, 2009
This article presents an empirically-grounded framework for mediating the everyday-life information worlds of youth aged 9-13. "Tweens" are a sandwiched population with behaviors, circumstances, and needs distinct from children and young adults. Little research has addressed their information-seeking, especially regarding nonschool contexts. Thus,…

Gardner, Grant; Jones, M. Gail; Falvo, Mike – Science Teacher, 2009
As a "new science," nanotechnology has brought many nanoscale-based applications to the forefront of society. This article describes one such application--a nanosensor that can precisely detect a variety of chemical stimuli in the environment--and presents the science behind it as an interdisciplinary science topic. This article also provides…

Jeffries, Carolyn; Maeder, Dale W. – Teacher Educator, 2009
Vignettes have long been used as a tool to model, teach, and research behavior and understanding as well as to stimulate discussion and problem solving in learning situations. The growing body of research on vignettes as an instructional and assessment tool to enhance recognition, recall, and transfer of subject matter knowledge suggests that the…

Virtue, David C.; Wilson, Jennifer L.; Ingram, Nikki – Middle School Journal (J1), 2009
The process through which teachers transform the curriculum over time is best explained by incremental change theories. Teachers will tinker at the margins of the curriculum, effecting incremental change, until they begin to feel comfortable with the dissolution of disciplinary boundaries, and they are willing to cede control of some curricular…

Zembylas, Michalinos; Ferreira, Ana – Journal of Peace Education, 2009
In this article, we present vignettes from two projects--one in Cyprus and the other in South Africa--to show how some classrooms enact "heterotopic" affective spaces that oppose normal/ized identities, that is, identities grounded in polarized trauma narratives. The notion of heterotopia is a spatial concept developed by Foucault to…

O'Connor, Eileen A. – Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 2009
The Master of Arts in Teaching program at Empire State College, an alternative teacher certification program focused on bringing career-changing adults to high-needs schools, has an important need in its initial pre-service year. These adult students must be prepared to move into complex, high-needs schools without student teaching and often with…

Lucas, Victoria L.; Collins, Suzanne; Langdon, Peter E. – Journal of Applied Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2009
Background: We examined whether staff attributions, emotions and helping behaviours in reaction to "real" incidents of challenging behaviour (CB) exhibited by children with intellectual disabilities were different from reactions to "vignettes". We also examined whether these reactions are congruent with that predicted by attribution theory.…

Lerman, Dorothea C.; Hovanetz, Alyson; Strobel, Margaret; Tetreault, Allison – Journal of Behavioral Education, 2009
Recording the antecedents and consequences of problem behavior for the purposes of conducting descriptive analyses (called "A-B-C recording") can be particularly challenging, given the multiple variables that are commonly present in the natural environment. Nonetheless, psychologists and behavioral consultants often must rely on parents and…

Communication and Education in a Virtual World: Avatar-Mediated Teaching and Learning in Second Life
Mon, Lorri – International Journal of Virtual and Personal Learning Environments, 2010
Education within Second Life frequently recapitulates the "sage on the stage" as students sit their avatars down in chairs in the virtual world and listen to or read an instructor's lecture while watching a slideshow. This conceptual article explores alternative active learning techniques supporting independent and collaborative learning…

Bartels, Daniel M.; Rips, Lance J. – Online Submission, 2010
People tend to attach less value to a good if they know a delay will occur before they obtain it. For example, people value receiving $100 dollars tomorrow more than receiving $100 in 10 years. We explore one reason for this tendency (due to Derek Parfit, 1984): In terms of psychological properties, such as beliefs, values, and goals, the decision…

Snyder, Jon; Lit, Ira – National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education, 2010
This paper makes a fundamentally simple line of empirically supported argumentation. The increasing demands for high level student learning can best be achieved by the use of the substantive research evidence of the past decade demonstrating that developmentally oriented instruction facilitates academic, behavioral, and social performance. Most…
