La construcció del coneixement gramatical en aprenents d'educació primària i secundària: algunes aproximacions a l'aprenentatge del verb
2017
El verb és una de les categories que una gramàtica escolar ha d’abordar necessàriament, tant pel que fa al coneixement de la noció i de la seva relació amb altres categories, com per la funció fonamental que pren en l’escriptura. En aquest article presentem tres recerques que descriuen el procés d’aprenentatge que els alumnes de primària i de secundària segueixen a l’hora d’aprendre continguts vinculats amb el verb: el temps del present, el mode verbal i la complementació verbal. Aquests treballs mostren quines estratègies desenvolupen els aprenents i quins obstacles han d’afrontar per desenvolupar un raonament gramatical. Dels estudis es desprèn que determinades intervencions didàctiques (…
Assessing first-year engineering students' pre-university mathematics knowledge: preliminary validity results based on an item response theory model
2020
The importance of students’ prior knowledge to their current learning outcomes cannot be overemphasised. Students with adequate prior knowledge are better prepared for the current learning materials than those without the knowledge. However, assessment of engineering students' prior mathematics knowledge has been beset with a lack of uniformity in measuring instruments and inadequate validity studies. This study attempts to provide evidence of validity and reliability of a Norwegian national test of prior mathematics knowledge using an explanatory sequential mixed-methods approach. This approach involves use of an item response theory model followed by cognitive interviews of some students …
Secondary students' VARK sensory preferences in science learning: Are they reliable?
2020
Students’ sensory preferences (SP), that is, the ways or channels they prefer to receive the information, have been proposed as personal factors influencing science learning. Some studies relate improvement in learning to the adequacy of instructional resources to individual SP. A widely used instrument to determine SP is the VARK questionnaire. However, the individual SP has to be reliable to be considered useful to improve instruction. There are not enough studies on the reliability of this questionnaire. This study aimed to assess the reliability (temporal stability) of SP, as measured by the VARK instrument. Also, the reliability of the student’s subjective perception of his/her person…
Análisis de perfiles multivariados de valoración para la detección de alumnado con TDA-H
2017
En este artículo se presentan los resultados del análisis realizado mediante análisis de conglomerados de k-medias para identificar perfiles multivariados de valoración para la identificación de niños con TDA-H. Para ello, se ha utilizado la Escala Magallanes (EMA-DDA), que requiere la evaluación del alumnado por parte de dos colectivos: padres y profesorado. Los estudios que se han realizado al respecto por parte de otros autores, si bien difieren en las escalas utilizadas, ponen de manifiesto que la nominación que realizan ambos colectivos suele discrepar no siendo concurrentes habitualmente en varias de las dimensiones que se evalúan. En un estudio anterior comprobamos que existían difer…
Wordarrows: El poder representativo del lenguaje en la obra de no ficción de N. Scott Momaday
2012
This article focuses on two non-fiction works by Native American author N. Scott Momaday: his 1969 historical memoir The Way to Rainy Mountain and his essay collection The Man Made of Words. It specifically tackles performative conceptions of language in the Kiowa storytelling tradition, where words are experienced as speech acts that have the power to intervene in surrounding realities. Taking into account 20th century ethno-cultural and linguistic policies in the United States, the article also reflects on the role indigenous languages may play in contemporary Native American Literature, which has most often been written in English.
Is Digital Literacy Improving Science Education?
2015
Mass media, and especially digital media, have become an important tool of literacy and have increased their use in classrooms for educational purposes. This is of great interest in scientific literacy and Brossard and Shanahan (2006) developed an instrument to evaluate the understanding of scientific terms and basic science concepts. In this quantitative study we analyse the relationship between Spanish digital mass media and scientific literacy in pre-service pri- mary teachers (N = 189). Results showed that these university students have a term knowledge level lower than the one found by Brossard and Shanahan in the USA. On the other hand, conceptual knowledge was not correlated at all to t…
Redesigning work in university classrooms: factors related to satisfaction in engineering and business administration students
2014
Objeto: Con este trabajo se pretende analizar cómo afectan las características del contexto del aprendizaje, es decir, cómo es el trabajo de los estudiantes en la asignatura, al potencial motivador de la asignatura y a la satisfacción de los estudiantes. Diseño/metodología/enfoque: Mediante ecuaciones estructurales (SEM) se ha analizado los datos de una muestra transversal (cursos 2008, 2009 y 2010) de 535 estudiantes de ingeniería industrial y administración de empresas, de una universidad pública española. Aportaciones y resultados: Los resultados, utilizando un instrumento validado y adaptado al mundo docente, demuestran la asociación existente entre las características del tipo de traba…
Strategic orientation to educational innovation : A systematic review and conceptual model
2022
Purpose: To carry out a systematic review of the literature on strategic orientation to educational innovation (SOEI), considering methodological and conceptual aspects. Methodology: Four macro-processes were implemented: identification (study location), description (information extraction), in-depth analysis (grouping and characterization patterns) and dissemination. The studies were identified through Scopus and Web of Science. The search expressions yielded 63 documents; afterwards, quality control was carried out using seven inclusion/exclusion criteria; the final sample consisted of 19 documents subject to review. Findings: With regard to methodological aspects, qualitative studies sta…
Student commitment to social responsibility: Systematic literature review, conceptual model, and instrument
2021
Purpose: This study aims to carry out a systematic literature review on empirical manifestations of the student commitment to social responsibility in order to propose a conceptual model that systematizes the underlying patterns in these manifestations and an instrument that makes it measurable. Design/methodology/approach: Four macro-processes were deployed: identify (locate the relevant literary space; the initial sample comprised 52 studies which later resulted in a sample of 24 studies), describe (narrative synthesis of the studies), deepen ( grouping patterns, validation, and characterization of the relevant literary space), and disseminate (preparation/refinement of the report). Findi…
Testing invariance between web and paper students satisfaction surveys. A case study
2017
[EN] Purpose: This paper studied the measurement invariance (MI) across web-based and paper-based surveys to evidence if both techniques of data collection can be regarded as equivalent. Design/methodology: We develop a multigroup confirmatory factor analysis (MGCFA) with Maximum Likelihood Estimation to asses measurement invariance of the Job Diagnostic Survey (JDS) adapted to teaching, with data collected from paper and web surveys. Sample from paper surveys was constituted by 294 student of a Spanish public university in the academic years 2007-08, 2008-09 and 2009-10. Internet surveys were administered through an open source survey application called Lime Survey. We received 241 complet…
