Title: Practical Theories of Teaching, Media, and Classroom
Management.
Year: 1994
Abstract:
This paper examines teachers' practical theories of teaching and ways in
which
individual teachers participate in a social solidarity, based on Richard
Rorty's
idea of solidarity as clinging to one's own ethnocentrism to understand
differences
between right and wrong, good and bad. Social solidarity is seen as
holding people
together, defining them as a group, and honoring one's own ethnocentrism
as a
starting place for social criticism and the establishment of pluralism.
Practical
theories of teaching are theories constructed from confronting the
practical problems
of the act of teaching and from the solidarity of practitioners.
Practical theories
of teaching call upon a teacher's solidarity to solve practical
problems. When
teachers select media that "work" in classroom instruction, they are, in
effect,
making a connection between the solidarity of students, their own
solidarity,
and their customized practical theories of teaching. By choosing media
consistent
with these three factors, effective classroom management may follow.
Therefore,
media and classroom management are examples of the interaction between a
teacher's
solidarity and practical theories of teaching. (Contains 19 references.)

Title: A Study Combining Criticism and Qualitative Research
Techniques for
Appraising Classroom Media.
Year: 1993
Abstract:
Qualitative criticism is a method of understanding things, actions,
and events
within a social framework. It is a method of acquiring knowledge to
guide decision
making based on local knowledge and a synthesis of principles from
criticism
and qualitative research. The function of qualitative criticism is
centered
with Richard Rorty's theoretical framework of solidarity. The basic
principles
of criticism, qualitative research, and qualitative criticism are
outlined.
The contributions of qualitative criticism have been and will continue
to be
vital to the study of education. The distinction between qualitative
criticism
and qualitative research is in the intent and extent of the inquiry,
but both
share common assumptions with naturalistic inquiry. Qualitative
criticism in
education intends to describe, interpret, and evaluate instruction.
Its functions
are described in terms of the axioms of naturalistic inquiry defined
by Y. Lincoln
and E. Guba. The difference between criticism and qualitative
criticism is in
the emphasis on naturalistic inquiry. The larger framework of Rorty's
concept
of solidarity and the viewpoint of George Herbert Mead for
understanding social
interaction are described. The use of qualitative criticism in an
educational
study is illustrated through a preliminary study of teacher selection
of instructional
media that considered the preferences of junior high school students.
A study
of how teachers use qualitative criticism is in progress. One table
contrasts
positivist and naturalist axioms. (SLD)

Title: A Revised Critical Schema for Planning and Selecting Print
and Non-print
Media for Socially Diverse Classroom Environments.
Year: 1992
Abstract:
Focusing on suggestions about selecting media for use by teachers,
this paper
summarizes a follow-up qualitative research study on a seventh grade
teacher's
approach to the selection of print and non-print media and presents a
revised
critical schema for such selection. The paper notes that the follow-up
study
indicated that the expression of student views related to media
entered into
the teacher's deliberative process and significantly changed the
critical schema
already developed based on the initial study of a third-grade teacher.
The schema
featured in the paper is based on the type of selection decisions made
by the
seventh-grade science teacher and how his decisions compared and
contrasted
with those of other teachers and students who were interviewed. The
paper concludes
that teachers should have access to the value-laden, critical position
of the
producers of media to assist them in making context-related decisions
about
the selection of media. (A list of 97 references is attached.) (RS)

Title: Instructional Technology and Proliferating World Views.
Symposium:
Technological Equity: Issues in Ethics and Theory.
Year: 1988
Abstract:
Four concepts are considered in light of their impact on instructional
technology
and design, i.e., the value status of technology, the proliferation of
worldviews,
equity in education, and the relationship of ethical issues to
practice. The
assumption that instructional technology is a value-neutral method of
conveying
instructional information is challenged by showing how instructional
technology
is value intensive in its support of a particular worldview, i.e., the
scientific
worldview. Heinich's definition of educational technology, with its
emphasis
on elements of replicability, reliability, communication, and control,
is used
as a framework to discuss: (1) the dichotomy between educational
equity and
educational excellence, i.e., provision of maximum access to
educational resources
for everyone vs. increased access to educational resources for those
who excel;
(2) current challenges to the scientific worldview from groups who
hold alternative
worldviews about the production and justification of knowledge; and
(3) the
challenge to the scientific worldview presented by the "new
pragmatism," or
"social construction," as it creates a void allowing for the
empowerment of
alternative "knowledge communities," e.g., religious and ethnic
groups. The
instructional design point of view, which embraces convergent and
measurable
responses pegged to carefully specified objectives in the transfer of
a pre-selected,
invariant body of knowledge, is called into question in light of the
development
of more fluid, multiple knowledge structures negotiated at the local
level.

Title: Relationship of Ego Development to Perception of Health.
Year: 1984
Abstract:
Research has demonstrated that perceived health, while related to
objective
determinants of health, is a separate determination of individuals
using different
information than others. To investigate the relationship of ego
development
to perceptions of health, 192 subjects (64 college students, 64 adult
community
residents, and 64 retired older adults) completed two measures of ego
development
and four measures of health status and well being. An analysis of the
results
showed that subjective well being and an awareness of actual health
problems
were significant predictors of the self-rating of health for college
students
and retired older adults. Among community residents, increased
educational status
and more complex ego development levels were associated with positive
self-ratings
of health. Endorsements on self-report health measures varied
significantly
according to complexity of ego development, with more complex people
endorsing
items reflecting better health status. These findings suggest that the
self-rating
of health represents an assessment of individuals' satisfaction with
their current
level of coping with health problems. (Author/BL)

Title: Interorganizational Partnerships in Local Job Creation and
Job Training
Efforts: Six Case Studies. Final Report.
Year: 1989
Abstract:
A study examined six cases where job training and economic development
had been
successfully linked through an interorganizational arrangement. Cases
were nominated
by U.S. Employment and Training Administration officials, job training
and economic
development experts, and published reports. The six organizations of
primary
focus were Pima County Community Services Department, Arizona;
Susquehanna Region
Private Industry Council, Inc., Maryland; Chester County Partnership
for Economic
Development, Pennsylvania; Northeast Florida Private Industry Council,
Inc.,
Florida; Greater Grand Rapids Area Economic Team, Michigan; and
Seattle-King
County Economic Development Council, Washington. The cases covered
sites with
varied demographic and economic characteristics, but did not cover
areas suffering
from chronic economic problems or with a large proportion of minority
people.
Data were collected during two visits to each site in 1989. In each of
the six
cases, a single organization headed the interorganizational efforts,
with the
lead organization in three cases being a Job Training Partnership Act
organization
and, in the other three cases, an economic development agency. While
all six
arrangements had contractual agreements among participating
organizations through
which funds were paid for services to all six, informal networks were
more important
than the formal agreements. It was concluded that in these six cases,
interorganizational
arrangements produced close coordination of job training and economic
development
activities, and that these activities were plausibly linked with
exemplary job
training and job creation outcomes. (This document includes a list of
43 references
and the six case studies.) (CML)

Title: Managing for Excellence in Urban High Schools: District and
School
Roles. Final Report.
Year: 1986
Abstract:
This 3-year study attempted to identify school and district management
practices
that produce exemplary urban high schools. Information was gathered
from 40
high schools with the following characteristics: (1) offering a
comprehensive
curriculum with no examination requirements; (2) located in one of the
166 largest
and densest central cities; and (3) serving at least 30 percent
disadvantaged
students and at least 30 percent racial or ethnic minorities. Despite
an extensive
screening effort, only four of the 40 schools studied were found to
have scholastic
achievement and attendance rates that qualified them as "exemplary."
Nevertheless,
a variety of instructional management, organizational management, and
district-school
co-management practices were identified in the remaining four schools
that were
were believed to produce exemplary outcomes that could be associated
with school
effectiveness theory, excellence theory, and collaborative efforts by
districts
and schools. The study concludes that all three approaches were
relevant and
complementary in developing a framework for improving practices in
urban high
schools. Recommendations for further research are suggested.
Twenty-seven tables
of statistical data and ten vignettes are included. A list of 143
references,
field guides for conducting intensive, focused, and interview site
visits, and
an analysis of practices at four intensive sites are appended. (FMW)

Title: Identifying Advanced Technologies for Education's Future.
Year: 1985
Abstract:
A study to determine how three advanced technologies might be applied
to the
needs of special education students helped inspire the development of
a new
method for identifying such applications. This new method, named the
"Hybrid
Approach," combines features of the two traditional methods:
technology-push
and demand-pull. Technology-push involves creating new technologies
before markets
are identified; demand-pull strategies focus on identifying user needs
and developing
technologies to meet them. The hybrid approach identifies existing
applications
of technology in one field and forecasts their future applicability to
situations
in another field. Five steps are involved: (1) defining the
technology, (2)
identifying current uses of the technology, (3) obtaining specialists'
views
of the potential applicability of the current uses to new settings,
(4) rating
the scenarios developed in the previous step according to their
chances for
success, and (5) disseminating information about the potential uses
found. A
modified Delphi technique was used for the hybrid approach in the
study. This
paper draws on one aspect of the study (concerning applications of
artificial
intelligence technology to special education) as an illlustration of
the workings
of the process. (PGD)

Title: Excellence in Urban High Schools: An Emerging
District/School Perspective.
Year: 1984
Abstract:
This report presents the preliminary findings of the
District/Secondary School
Study. The study had two purposes: (1) to identify ways of managing
urban high
schools to produce excellence, and (2) to recommend policy-relevant
guidance
to existing school and district administrators. The study design
focused on
the testing of two specific theories for managing schools: school
effectiveness
theory and organizational excellence theory. On the basis of
preliminary results,
the report tentatively concludes that schools are more amenable to
management
initiatives than originally thought. In addition, there are
indications that
the sources of managerial initiative are much more diverse and complex
than
the single organization implicit in the school effectiveness or
managerial excellence
theories, both of which tend to treat the school as the sole source of
managerial
control over itself. In contrast, a degree of collaboration has been
found which
suggests a pattern in which schools and districts "co-manage" the
school in
specific ways that produce desirable outcomes. (RDN)

Title: Adolescents Educated in Israel and in the Soviet Union:
Differences
in Moral Judgment
Journal: Journal of Cross Cultural Psychology; v6 n1 p108 21 1975
Year: 1975
Abstract:
Moral judgments of Israeli and Soviet educated adolescents who had
recently
arrived in Israel were compared on a relativistic-realistic dimension,
using
a specially designed instrument - the Morality Shifting in Adolescence
Questionnaire.
Soviety educated adolescents were significantly more realistically
oriented
in moral judgment and in both groups, girls were more realistically
oriented
than boys. Differences are related to differences in societal
socialization
processes. (Author/EH)

Children Living
in Kibbutzim
Journal: Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology; v40 n2 p287

children from
the bombarded kibbutzim would have a higher level of anxiety than
those from
the nonbombarded ones, no significant differences were found. (Author)
