Non-Hierarchical Clustering as a method to analyse an open-ended questionnaire on algebraic thinking

2016

The problem of taking a data set and separating it into subgroups, where the members of each subgroup are more similar to each other than they are to members outside the subgroup, has been extensively studied in science and mathematics education research. Student responses to written questions and multiple-choice tests have been characterised and studied using several qualitative and/or quantitative analysis methods. However, there are inherent difficulties in the categorisation of student responses in the case of open-ended questionnaires. Very often, researcher bias means that the categories picked out tend to find the groups of students that the researcher is seeking out. In this paper, …

Cogenerar conocimiento para transformar lo inmediato. De la investigación participativa a la coautoría en la difusión de los resultados

2021

El barrio de El Cabanyal en la ciudad de Valencia es el contexto en el que se desarrolla una investigación transformadora con dos objetivos precisos: crear una comunidad de coinvestigadoras que planifican, implementan, evalúan y difunden los resultados, y crear las condiciones para reconstruir el tejido social superando el conflicto entre grupos y los prejuicios que dificultan el encuentro. La investigación-acción participativa permite el dialogo entre las personas, las disciplinas y las culturas. Como resultado destacamos el desarrollo de redes de cogeneración de conocimientos útiles para la sociedad en su conjunto, basados en el pensamiento inductivo, la implicación de la ciudadanía con l…

Effects of emergency remote instruction during the COVID-19 pandemic on university physics students in Italy

2021

We surveyed a convenience sample of 362 Italian university physics students, asking them to retrospectively assess their experience of emergency remote instruction due to the COVID-19 outbreak. We looked at their psychological well being, motivation for physics, academic orientation, attitude towards physics and physicists, and tried to link these factors to their overall perception of the online instruction. Our results show a general appreciation for the organization and effectiveness of online courses. However, online teaching negatively impacted on engagement and interaction between peers and with the instructors. Only 22% of students in our sample complained of the psychological distre…

Políticas públicas de lectura e investigación. El diseño del Plan Valenciano de Lectura

2017

Para determinar con exactitud qué acciones deben ser consideradas prioritarias en el diseño de las políticas públicas de lectura es necesario contar, en primer lugar, con equipos de investigación que aporten datos concretos que aseguren su éxito; en segundo lugar, con metodologías para su diseño, seguimiento y evaluación; en tercer lugar, con protocolos para su mejora y, finalmente, con indicadores para la medición de los objetivos y los resultados. Este artículo resume y reflexiona sobre los retos que enfrentan las políticas de lectura a partir de la revisión de las principales investigaciones e informes institucionales sobre el tema y describe el proceso de trabajo, las metodologías utili…

Evaluar para transformar: evaluación de la docencia universitaria bajo el prisma de la sostenibilidad

2017

El objetivo principal de este estudio se dirige a diagnosticar el nivel de introducción de la sostenibilidad en las actividades docentes y facilitar la autoevaluación profesional del profesorado universitario desde criterios de sostenibilidad.El estudio está basado en la investigación evaluativa como metodología asociada al paradigma sociocrítico; se analizan los resultados de la aplicación de un cuestionario autodiagnóstico validado, dirigido al profesorado de las áreas científico-técnicas de la Universitat de València. En el proceso sistemático de recogida y análisis de la información se han aplicado criterios para garantizar la calidad del juicio emitido.Los resultados ofrecen un diagnós…

Tendencias en las políticas de formación y evaluación del profesorado en la Educación Superior en España

2016

En esta aportación revisaremos la situación en la universidad española respecto a los procesos de formación y de evaluación de la función docente. La demanda social respecto a la universidad y su papel en el desarrollo de la sociedad y la ciudadanía, los cambios derivados del Proceso de Bolonia y los procesos explícitos y continuos de evaluación y acreditación en las universidades han configurado un nuevo panorama en la universidad española, que ha influido en las políticas de formación y de evaluación del profesorado. La formación inicial y continua del profesorado universitario, en tanto investigador y, sobre todo, como docente, tiene una larga tradición, pero se ha visto sustancialmente …

Enriching gender in physics education research: A binary past and a complex future

2016

[This paper is part of the Focused Collection on Gender in Physics.] In this article, we draw on previous reports from physics, science education, and women’s studies to propose a more nuanced treatment of gender in physics education research (PER). A growing body of PER examines gender differences in participation, performance, and attitudes toward physics. We have three critiques of this work: (i) it does not question whether the achievements of men are the most appropriate standard, (ii) individual experiences and student identities are undervalued, and (iii) the binary model of gender is not questioned. Driven by these critiques, we propose a conception of gender that is more up to date…

Instruction-based clinical eye-tracking study on the visual interpretation of divergence : how do students look at vector field plots?

2018

Relating mathematical concepts to graphical representations is a challenging task for students. In this paper, we introduce two visual strategies to qualitatively interpret the divergence of graphical vector field representations. One strategy is based on the graphical interpretation of partial derivatives, while the other is based on the flux concept. We test the effectiveness of both strategies in an instruction-based eye-tracking study with N = 41 physics majors. We found that students’ performance improved when both strategies were introduced (74% correct) instead of only one strategy (64% correct), and students performed best when they were free to choose between the two strategies (88…
