Data envelopment and school effectiveness: contract teachers' efficiency compared to civil servants in the Education for all process) In the context of EFA process, countries, in general the most depressed LDC, both constrained by scarcity of funding and urgency for expanding school access have set up new tracks for teacher recruitment on annually renewable contracts. Those teachers are often not professionally trained in regards with traditional pedagogical curricula. They receive much lower salaries than regular civil service teachers. This has been a controversial policy, but there is very limited evidence on the effectiveness or failure of contract teachers in improving student learning…

Variabilitat en la realització del contrast en les sibilants sordes del català i del romanés

2021

El romanés i el valencià presenten un contrast similar entre la sibilant no palatal /s/ i la sibilant palatal /?/, però l’articulació de les dues consonants presenta diferències entre les dues llengües. D’una banda, en romanés /s/ es realitza com a dental, més avançada que en valencià; de l’altra, /?/ presenta en romanés un grau de palatalitat major, amb més endarreriment articulatori que en valencià. El primer objectiu és descriure les característiques acústiques d’aquestes consonants a partir del centre de gravetat i comprovar si aquest moment espectral és un bon indicador per a caracteritzar /s/ i /?/ en les llengües estudiades. El segon objectiu és determinar si existeixen diferències e…

2022

本研究の目的は，大学教員養成におけるグローバル教員研修が，大学院生（現 職教員・大学生）の「教員 21 世紀型スキル」に関する自己効力感にどのような変容を もたらすかを明らかにすることである。研修は，１ . 対話型ボトムアップ研修，２ ．フィン ランドの教育改革研修，及び，３ ．教科連携の CLIL・STEAM に拠る授業訪問を特徴 とする。次世代の児童・生徒が，学びを実社会へ転移するような教育を実現する教員の 21 世紀型スキルとは何か，国際間比較をとおした俯瞰的な研修を目指す。研究方法は， 『Edu 21st：教員 21 世紀型スキルの自己効力感尺度』の 47 質問項目をもちいた事前 と事後の変容，およびポートフォリオ記述分析である。その結果，Edu21st（３ 因子構 造）で差が認められ，「分析的デザイン思考能力」で最も変化が大きいことが明らかにな り，異分野連携の協働中に起こる異質な考えに対する葛藤への価値付けが見られた。 peerReviewed
