Download or read book Higher Education Management written by Warner, David and published by McGraw-Hill Education (UK). This book was released on 1996-08-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many higher education institutions are like small towns, meeting the needs of their members by providing not only specialist teaching and research activities but also residential accommodation, catering, telecommunications, counselling, sports facilities and so on. The management of these institutions is very complex, requiring both generalist and specialist knowledge and skills; and the move to formal strategic planning means that it is no longer acceptable for higher education managers to be aware only of their own relatively narrow areas of expertise. All new managers would benefit from an holistic perspective on managing a whole institution. As such individuals are promoted, such 'helicopter vision' becomes a precondition of their and their institution's success. Higher Education Management provides: * the first comprehensive account of non-academic higher education management. * contributions from distinguished practitioners of university management. * a key resource for all aspiring, trainee and practising managers in higher education.

Download or read book The Philosophy of Mathematics Education Today written by Paul Ernest and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-09 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an up-to-date overview of the research on philosophy of mathematics education, one of the most important and relevant areas of theory. The contributions analyse, question, challenge, and critique the claims of mathematics education practice, policy, theory and research, offering ways forward for new and better solutions. The book poses basic questions, including: What are our aims of teaching and learning mathematics? What is mathematics anyway? How is mathematics related to society in the 21st century? How do students learn mathematics? What have we learnt about mathematics teaching? Applied philosophy can help to answer these and other fundamental questions, and only through an in-depth analysis can the practice of the teaching and learning of mathematics be improved. The book addresses important themes, such as critical mathematics education, the traditional role of mathematics in schools during the current unprecedented political, social, and environmental crises, and the way in which the teaching and learning of mathematics can better serve social justice and make the world a better place for the future.
Download or read book Energy Resources in Science Education written by Donald F. Kirwan and published by Pergamon. This book was released on 1987 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the age of uncertain world energy supplies and tomorrow's adults must have an awareness of the varied and complex linkages between energy and environmental, political, economic, health and social issues in order to participate in helping solve their nations' energy problems. Teachers will play a significant role in the ultimate solution to energy problems. This volume examines the energy perspective in education at all levels and analyzes ideas for teaching about the sources and uses of energy. It deals with the multi-faceted energy problem and the energy conservation and environmental preservation ethic in order to equip students with a broader scientific knowledge base.
Download or read book A Handbook of Test Construction Psychology Revivals written by Paul Kline and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-06-03 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychological tests provide reliable and objective standards by which individuals can be evaluated in education and employment. Therefore accurate judgements must depend on the reliability and quality of the tests themselves. Originally published in 1986, this handbook by an internationally acknowledged expert provided an introductory and comprehensive treatment of the business of constructing good tests. Paul Kline shows how to construct a test and then to check that it is working well. Covering most kinds of tests, including computer presented tests of the time, Rasch scaling and tailored testing, this title offers: a clear introduction to this complex field; a glossary of specialist terms; an explanation of the objective of reliability; step-by-step guidance through the statistical procedures; a description of the techniques used in constructing and standardizing tests; guidelines with examples for writing the test items; computer programs for many of the techniques. Although the computer testing will inevitably have moved on, students on courses in occupational, educational and clinical psychology, as well as in psychological testing itself, would still find this a valuable source of information, guidance and clear explanation.

Download or read book Approaches to Sustainable Development written by Robert Forrant and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can cities and regions foster sustainable development? What role can a university play in this process? These are the central questions addressed in this innovative collection of essays, which brings together scholars in such diverse fields as history, political economy, community studies, industrial theory, economic geography, environmental studies, ergonomics and work design, race and gender studies, manufacturing engineering, and public health. In 1993 a core group of faculty members at the University of Massachusetts Lowell launched an interdisciplinary study to find ways for the university to help stimulate regional development on a sustainable basis. They looked at models of development, new processes, and practical tools for transforming ideas into actions. At the same time, they moved beyond traditional research paradigms that focus on business growth and technology diffusion to the exclusion of social, environmental, and cultural development. Lowell is an ideal place for exploring these issues, given its rich industrial and immigrant history and the University's expertise as a science and engineering institution. The product of this research is a set of thoughtful essa
