... | | | | | | | | | | | | | Research NotesBrief Notes on Science and Practice from Joseph Witt, PhD, Senior Scientist Why Research is ImportantSchool professionals have an increased awareness of the way the term "research based" is being used by publishers. It has become a completely meaningless phrase in recent years. Every type of intervention, assessment, or curriculum product now carries the label research based. In particular, intervention publishers shamelessly proclaim that their products are based upon research despite a complete absence of scientifically based research. Reasonable care can be taken by school-based professionals to determine if a product has a scientifically acceptable research base. The primary indicator is simple: does the product have peer reviewed published studies indicating it does what it purports to do? The scientific peer review process includes a process whereby research is reviewed by people who are disinterested third parties that scrutinize studies for scientific merit. Studies which are not sound do not get published in quality journals. Very few products have a true research base because conducting the research and going through the peer review process can take 2-4 years. What publishers present instead is "data" from a school here or there that used the product and got good results and everyone "liked" the program. The problem with this claim is the "research" complied with no standards, the schools presented...

...by Saul McLeod published 2007, updated 2015 By the 1920s, John B. Watson had left academic psychology and other behaviorists were becoming influential, proposing new forms of learning other than classical conditioning. Perhaps the most important of these was Burrhus Frederic Skinner. Although, for obvious reasons he is more commonly known as B.F. Skinner. Skinner's views were slightly less extreme than those of Watson (1913). Skinner believed that we do have such a thing as a mind, but that it is simply more productive to study observable behavior rather than internal mental events. The work of Skinner was rooted in a view that classical conditioning was far too simplistic to be a complete explanation of complex human behavior. He believed that the best way to understand behavior is to look at the causes of an action and its consequences. He called this approach operant conditioning. Operant Conditioning deals with operants - intentional actions that have an effect on the surrounding environment. Skinner set out to identify the processes which made certain operant behaviours more or less likely to occur. Skinner's theory of operant conditioning was based on the work of Thorndike (1905). Edward Thorndike studied learning in animals using a puzzle box to propose the theory known as the 'Law of Effect'. BF Skinner: Operant Conditioning Skinner is regarded as the father of Operant Conditioning, but his work was based on Thorndike’s law of effect. Skinner introduced a new...

...Discuss the role and importance of educational research. (100) Marks An evaluation of research in education, with the general aim of systematically, improving an academic body of knowledge may deficits in systems be highlighted by well-designed research. The results of research can lead (ideally) to changes in methods or practices (in the case of education it might be a teaching methods, say online Vs in class on campus). This would ideally appropriate education is provided to the students resulting in a more effective/efficient population. This paper explores different senses of the concept of meaning in educational research, presenting ‘meaning’ as personal (the researcher’s quest for meaning through research), contextual (meaning in relation to linguistics and culture) and shared (through communication), offering the various types, challenges, benefits and forms of research in practice-based research in educational technology. Conducting research in an educational setting should be an important aspect of every educator`s professional life. Best and Khan (1993) p27 describe research as “the systematic and objective analysis and recording of controlled observations that may lead to the development of generalisations, principles of theories, resulting in prediction and possibly ultimate control of events. Education in a research setting is done to improve school practices and at the same time to improve those individuals who strive to improve those practices. Best and Khan...

...Running head: FAMILY ENGAGEMENT 1 THE IMPORTANCE OF FAMILY ENGAGEMENT ON THE EDUCATIONAL PROCESS OF YOUNG CHILDREN EDU 626 Instructor Dr. Rodriguez September 16, 2012 FAMILY ENGAGEMENT THE IMPORTANCE OF FAMILY ENGAGEMENT ON THE EDUCATIONAL PROCESS OF YOUNG CHILDREN Torri Gaines Ashford University 2 ABSTRACT Because of common barriers to engagement, many families do not actively participate in their child‟s education process. These barriers can be addressed and overcome by building strong school and family partnerships to promote and increase family engagement. These types of partnerships can be established and maintained by both teachers and families in a joint effort for the benefit of all involved. PURPOSE OF THE STUDY The purpose of my research study is to describe the impact that family engagement has on the educational process of children. Additionally the study describes the beliefs of teachers and families concerning family engagement, its benefits, and challenges. The specific research questions that will be addressed in this study are: 1. How does family engagement set the foundation for academic success in young children? 2. How does family engagement impact the family as a whole? 3. What are some barriers to engagement? A hypothesis I developed concerning this topic is that students whose families are not engaged in their educational process do worse in school (have lower selfesteem, perform worse academically and behaviorally) than those whose families...

...development of student-athletes. Analysis Athletes spend 40 hours a week on sport related activities decreasing time for academic pursuits and productive activities. This time is spent with other athletes and coaching staff which impairs personal development and social integration. The rigorous schedule leads to physical exhaustion and nagging injuries. This hampers attention to educational pursuits and goal attainment. Educational Importance Colleges and universities have a duty to provide the best educational experience possible for its students. Education should not take a backseat to sports on campuses across the country. Individual, multilevel, and culturally relevant curriculum and programs should be developed to promote personal, social, and academic success for student-athletes. These programs need to ensure that athletes can compete not just in sports but in life. Reference Comeaux, E. & Harrison, K. (2011). A conceptual model of academic success for student athletes.

...Research Proposal B. Anderson EDU 626 October 22, 2012 Instructor Lafferty Abstract The following is a research proposal addressing the importance of encouraging children to read for pleasure. The proposal explains the importance of such research within the introduction and then poses the research questions that will act as a guide for the researcher. It goes on to discuss literature found by the researcher that is relevant to this topic. The research will be a case study done using qualitative research. The methods and procedures will include participants from Rodman Elementary School along with a few instruments that will be needed for the collection of data. The analysis will seek to answer to research questions and the conclusion of this proposal will be a re=statement of the importance of the research. Introduction In a world consumed by technology it can be difficult to pull children’s attention away from devices such as television, computers, and video games and convince them to sit down with a good book. Yet, reading is the cornerstone of a successful education. Children who read often will develop a stronger vocabulary, have a greater depth of general knowledge, be more aware of cultural diversity, and even develop stronger social skills. The research proposed in this paper will explore the importance of reading for pleasure. It is probably fair to assume that the majority of people in our society will remember the alphabet song as...

...Descriptive research plays an important role in educational research because it has greatly increased our knowledge about what happens in the classroom. What is descriptive research? Descriptive research can involve collecting quantitative information, or it can describe categories of information such as patterns of interaction when using technology in the classroom. Although it may employ fundamentals of both quantitative and qualitative research, descriptive research does not fit neatly into the definition of either quantitative or qualitative research methodology. Descriptive research takes a “what is” approach. Types of questions that may be addressed using descriptive research include: What is the best way to provide access to computer equipment in schools? Do teachers hold favorable attitudes toward using computers in schools? What have been the reactions of school administrators to technological innovations in teaching? Using descriptive research methodologies with the educational setting may be advantageous for several reasons. Educational research and experiences may contain many variables that cannot be realistically controlled, educational research may require observations of life experiences, and data collection may be spread over a large number of people over a large geographic area. Descriptive research may be used most effectively within the educational setting because educational research experiences cannot be as realistically controlled as laboratory...

...Implications for Academic Intervention Programs Luisa Baquiran Aquino University Research Pool, University of Saint Louis, Tuguegarao City, Philippines Email: luisaaquino031580@gmail.com Abstract—The substantive aim of this study was to investigate the favorable and unfavorable study habits and study attitudes of the freshmen students and determine its implications in formulating academic intervention programs. The Survey of Study Habits and Attitudes (SSHA) instrument developed by Brown and Holtzman (1969) was used to assess the study habits and attitudes of the students. Results show that students generally do not approve teacher methods and classroom management, and have inefficient time management. Favorable and unfavorable study habits and attitudes of the students were also revealed. Implications of these findings were discussed and the theory of confluent education was considered in designing a framework of academic intervention programs among HEIs. Index Terms—study habits, study attitudes, study orientation, academic achievement, academic intervention programs, confluent education I. INTRODUCTION A great deal of research literature provides an evidence that study habits and study attitudes are both significant variables which determine the academic performance of students [3, 5, 9, 12, 15].Yet, in spite of the perceived importance of study habits and study attitudes to educational achievement, very little attention were given by academic institutions to improve...

...Education for Post-Hospitalization Home Care Debra Scully Walden University NURS 6010-11 Advancing Nursing through Inquiry and Research April 8, 2012 Patient Education for Post-Hospitalization Home Care Changes in health care delivery brought on by financial constraints have affected the length of stay for certain patient procedures, resulting in an early discharge. Patients discharged from hospitals sooner than anticipated are finding themselves ill prepared, regarding insufficient education and instructions on self-management for home care, post-hospitalization. Patient education in nursing should be a focal priority, yet is often slighted due to time constraints, and lack of staff, preparation and materials. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the importance of sufficient patient education prior to discharge for patients with residual home care. Research on this topic could have beneficial implications for patient satisfaction pertaining to quality education for home care prior to discharge. Evidenced-based research has illustrated that the development of educational tools to aid nursing in providing succinct and pertinent information of discharge criteria has attributed to a rise in patient satisfaction. Considerations for educational materials were preferred language, specificity of patient concerns, and simplicity of educational materials. Summary Contemporary day surgery: patients’ experience of discharge and recovery Gilmartin (2007) reports that...

...THE ROLES OF COLLEGE GUIDANCE COUNSELORS IN CALABARZON: IMPLICATIONS TO GUIDANCE PROGRAM AND SCHOOL ADMINISTRATION M. H. A. SEMIRA Batangas State University Gov. Pablo Borbon Campus I, Rizal Avenue, Batangas City ABSTRACT The study was undertaken to identify and assess the roles of college guidance counselors in CALABARZON and its implications to the schools guidance program and school administration. According to Erford (2003), the transformative roles of school counselors were leaders, advocates, collaborators, counselors and coordinators and data utilizers. Likewise, Kuhn (2004) explained that better understanding of the roles of guidance counselors diminished some of the misconceptions and confusions of the counselors’ roles. The above-mentioned roles were reflective of the American culture that is why the present study utilized the guidance counselors’ roles presented by De Jesus (2006) which was based on Philippine context. Findings revealed that the guidance counselors highly recognized their roles as counselor, coordinator, consultant, conductor of activities, and change agent. Thus, they were contributory to the effective implementation of the guidance programs in every college or university in the region under study. INTRODUCTION The roles of school counselors have changed dramatically over time. As the 20th century began, school counselors did not exist. Instead teachers were using few minutes of their day to provide students with vocational...
