This book was released on 1984 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A team of examiners from the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) reviews Portugal's education system in a three-part report. Part One begins with the consequences of the 1974 revolution, Portugal's economic problems, its impending attachment to the European Economic Community, and rising public expectations about education. It continues with criticism of the Ministry of Education, which is overstaffed and has duplicate functions. The examiners propose reduction of branches and suggest the establishment of a national education advisory council and closer relations with other government agencies. A high priority for the compulsory school-level education (four primary and two preparatory grades) is improvement of standards in rural areas. Accepting the future extension of compulsory schooling from 6 to 9 years, the examiners counsel step-by-step reform of the school structure and curriculum. Education of 16-to-19 year olds is a problematic issue since upper-secondary schools are not providing adequate vocational courses. The examiners feel a solution is for Portugal to adopt a comprehensive education and training policy for that age group implemented jointly by the Ministries of Education and Labor. Part Two of the report includes a record of the review meeting between the OECD examiners and the Minister of Education and his delegates and addresses five areas of concern. The third part is a summary of the Ministry of Education's Backgroud Report of the education system in Portugal. (MD)
Download or read book The Mediating Role of Flow in the Relation Between Personality Traits and Performance written by Alexandra Wagner and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are a number of studies which have investigated the relationship between academic performance and the Big Five personality traits (openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism), however, the findings in existing research are inconsistent and it seems academic performance may depend at least partially on factors besides just personality. There seems to be something missing or unaccounted for when trying to describe how personality can affect academic performance. The present study suggests the gap between academic performance and personality traits might be explained by theories of flow. Multiple regression and mediation analyses were conducted with data from 56 first year bachelor students from the University of St. Gallen. The data was used to build an integrated model exploring the relationship between personality traits, academic performance and flow (an enhanced state of concentration and complete absorption). Results revealed that certain personality traits like conscientiousness and neuroticism predict academic performance more clearly than others, and the same traits that help to predict academic performance are more conducive to entering a state of flow. Moreover, the findings revealed that flow plays a crucial mediating role in the relationship between the before mentioned personality traits and academic performance. The study therefore sheds light on the key role that individual student personalities play in educational settings, while also revealing that personality traits alone do not ensure good academic performance. In fact, the results of the present study emphasize the importance of creating a learning environment conducive to flow.
Download or read book Neuropsychodynamic Psychiatry written by Heinz Boeker and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-11 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a comprehensive neuropsychodynamic strategy for treating psychiatric disorders. Rather than pursuing an exclusively biological, psychological, or psychodynamic approach, it offers a methodology that links all three aspects in a unifying, integrative model. Central to this approach is the view of the brain as a bio-psychosocial organ in a neuro-ecological model, rather than the purely neuronal model often presupposed in current neuroscience and psychiatry. Moreover, the book views psychopathological symptoms as spatiotemporal disorders of the altered spatiotemporal structure spanning the brain and its surrounding world. The relation between one of the core symptoms and altered neuronal activity calls for the development of integrated, circular neuropsychodynamic models of psychopathological symptoms in severe psychiatric disorders and their treatment.

Download or read book Individual Learners written by W. Ray Crozier and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-03 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No two learners are the same. They take different approaches to learning tasks and they respond to formal education in different ways. Yet the current emphasis in education is on what is common to learners, from a common curriculum to a common teaching method. Individual Learners reviews and discusses recent research that shows that differences in personality contribute significantly to children's and adults' experiences of success and failure in education. Individual Learners considers fundamental issues in the study of personality, and provides an up-to-date review and evaluation of the continuing nature-nurture debate. It then examines five traits that can have an impact upon learning: aggressiveness, anxiety, achievement, motivation, self-confidence and shyness. The book provides an accessible account of the recent research into the links between personality and education and its implications for educational practice. It will be invaluable to anyone with an interest in education, whether students, teachers or lecturers.
