Responsabilidad social universitaria: influencia de valores y empatía en la autoatribución de comportamientos socialmente responsables
2014
ResumenLa formación de profesionales socialmente responsables en la universidad se ha convertido en una misión reconocida por la UNESCO. El artículo realiza una revisión del estudio de la responsabilidad social universitaria desde la psicología, y desarrolla una propuesta novedosa de análisis para evaluar la incidencia de la educación superior en adquirir comportamientos de responsabilidad social, basada en un análisis de ecuaciones estructurales de múltiples indicadores y múltiples causas. Con base en un muestreo no probabilístico accidental y un diseño de investigación de encuesta de carácter transversal, se administraron tres escalas: de valores humanos, de empatía multidimensional y de …
Health Information Seeking Among University Students Before and During the Corona Crisis—Findings From Germany
2021
Health information-seeking behavior is the process of gathering information about health and disease and can be influential for health-related perception and behavior. University students are an important target group for prevention and health promotion and largely belong to an age group that is considered to play a leading role in propagating the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic in Germany. The paper deals with students' health information-seeking behavior before and during the corona crisis, aiming to give insights into its determinants and implications. Using the example of a large German comprehensive university and based on two cross-sectional surveys in the summer of 2019 (n = 4,351) and 2020 (n =…
Costruire apprendimento e partecipazione a scuola:da studenti unteachables a comunità di motivated learners
2020
Education of the future is a central theme in many debates nowadays. This paper focuses on the question what knowledge and skills are most relevant to prepare students for a rapidly changing society and if schools are able to respond effectively to costant transformation driven by technological innovation. While the school systemis involved in a modification process that concerns its core contents, new “wired” generations of students from lower secondary education are labelled as difficult to teach or even “unteachables”, students who are losing interest in academic learning, who are not motivated or responsible for their learning processes. The contribution examines the activities of an on…
Screening for Slow Reading Acquisition in Norway and Finland : a Quest for Context Specific Predictors
2020
Early identification of children at risk of developing reading difficulties is crucial for effective interventions. While orthographies and educational contexts differ, predictors included in early at-risk screening tend to remain rather homogeneous across countries. In this study, we compared longitudinal prediction patterns of being among the 20 percent lowest performing in reading fluency by the end of Grade 1 in Norway (N = 918) and Finland (N =378). The two countries differ in orthographic consistency (semi-transparent versus transparent), age at school entry and pre-primary education. Letter knowledge, phoneme isolation and rapid automatized naming (RAN) were unique predictors in the …
Disposição ao pensamento crítico, nível acadêmico, gênero e resolução de problemas no ensino médio
2021
Resumen El propósito de este estudio fue investigar la posible influencia de la disposición hacia el pensamiento crítico, el nivel académico y el género (variables independientes) sobre el desempeño en resolución de problemas de estudiantes de secundaria (variable dependiente). Han participado 114 estudiantes de educación secundaria españoles, 55 chicos y 59 chicas, de 3º y 4º de ESO y de 1º de Bachillerato (9º, 10º y 11º grado, respectivamente). A todos ellos se les ha administrado un cuestionario sobre disposición hacia el pensamiento crítico y una prueba de resolución de problemas (un problema de las pruebas PISA). De la matriz de correlaciones producto-momento de Pearson entre variables…

THE IMPACT OF FAMILY AND INDIVIDUAL FACTORS ON 4TH GRADE STUDENTS’ SELF-CONFIDENCE IN READING LITERACY: RESULTS FROM PIRLS 2016
2021
The self-confidence of a child and an adult is associated with performance and achievement results. It is well-studied, and the correlation has been proved that higher self-efficacy leads to higher achievements and performance, including better performance in reading literacy. It is also known that both a family and a home environment have a tremendous impact on the child’s development and academic performance. This article focuses on the 4 th graders and their family factor impact on the development of a child’s self-confidence and concepts related to self-confidence. The purpose of this article is to define concepts that are closely related to self-confidence and to identify family factor…
Gender discrimination in physics and astronomy: Graduate student experiences of sexism and gender microaggressions
2016
[This paper is part of the Focused Collection on Gender in Physics.] Sexism occurs when men are believed to be superior to women, and is thought to be one of the reasons for women’s underrepresentation in physics and astronomy. The issue of sexism in physics and astronomy has not been thoroughly explored in the physics education literature and there is currently no clear language for discussing sexism in the field. This article seeks to begin a conversation on sexism in physics and astronomy and offer a starting point for language to discuss sexism in research groups and departments. Interviews with 21 women in graduate physics and astronomy programs are analyzed for their individual experi…

2019
Masteroppgave matematikkdidaktikk MA502 – Universitetet i Agder 2019 This master thesis presentsaqualitative case study whichexplore year 2 students work with problem solving tasks, in a semiotic perspective. In the study, three small groups were observed while working with problem solving tasks. The aim of the observations where to getaninsight into which semiotic resources the students used while working onthe problem solving tasks. Video recordings from the observations make up the empirical data material of this study. This study is placed in the socio-cultural learning perspective. The aim of this study is to explore which semiotic resources the students use while working onproblem sol…
