Book excerpt: Progress in Education. Volume 53 explores the different factors involved in flexible study options and delivery modes in higher education from a student's and service provider's perspective. The authors also investigate the available literature in order to explore the fine line between offering students a variety of study options to suit their specific needs, circumstances and learning styles, versus exploiting the tertiary education system through commercialization and implementing a pure business model that considers students as clients or service users rather than knowledge seekers.Following this, the compilation delves into the potential impact of profiling on students' learning experiences and well-being at school. The authors contend that achieving a particular type of profiling may assist in the enhancement of academic experiences, and this theorization has important educational and psychological implications.The performance of Spanish secondary schools whose 15-year-old students were assessed in mathematical competencies by the OECD (PISA program) in 2003 and 2012 is evaluated, and research reveals that Spanish schools decreased in efficiency over time. Persistent technical inefficiency was a larger problem than residual technical inefficiency when evaluating the educational performance of Spanish secondary schools over time. The results are worrisome because the average socio-economic status of the families increased significantly in this period.The next study was conducted with the goal of determining how flipped teaching and learning classrooms affects university students' perceptions of teachers' professional development. The results show that there are significant differences in some dimensions of TPACK for two university instructors, and the research implications and limitations of this study are detailed along with suggestions.One study aims to examine the types of conclusion of argumentative discussions between parents and children during mealtime. The findings of this study show that the most frequent types of conclusions are dialectical, i.e., one of the two parties accept or refuse the standpoint of the other party, reaching in this way the concluding stage of their argumentative discussions.Later, a case study is detailed which examines student perceptions of a fully online community learning environment within an undergraduate course at a Canadian university. The authors use a theoretical model based on elements of engaging online learning environments, and the results indicate that successful design of flipped classroom models requires full student participation in Authentic and Alternative Assessment, Problem-Based Learning, Online Learning Communities and Critical Reflection of self and peers.The authors analyze inverse modeling problems in the context of teacher training courses. Two different inverse modeling problems are proposed to prospective teachers, who are asked to reformulate them in order to be used in secondary school courses. These type of problems have been the core subject of several preceding papers and have been studied as they relate to engineering undergraduates.The concluding chapter reviews literature on the philosophical concept of bullying strategies. The authors analyze the significant usage of anti-bullying strategies as prominent strategies in teaching, as informed by conceptual and theoretical frameworks of cognitive and metacognitive theories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this new and expanded edition of Chossudovskys international best-seller, the author outlines the contours of a New World Order which feeds on human poverty and the destruction of the environment, generates social apartheid, encourages racism and ethnic strife and undermines the rights of women. The result as his detailed examples from all parts of the world show so convincingly, is a globalisation of poverty. This book is a skilful combination of lucid explanation and cogently argued critique of the fundamental directions in which our world is moving financially and economically. In this new enlarged edition -- which includes ten new chapters and a new introduction -- the author reviews the causes and consequences of famine in Sub-Saharan Africa, the dramatic meltdown of financial markets, the demise of State social programs and the devastation resulting from corporate downsizing and trade liberalisation.

Book excerpt: In the opening chapter of Progress in Education. Volume 51, the authors present a meta-analysis indicating that the prevalence of addiction to new technologies among Iranian youths are increasing, focusing on the epidemiology of internet addiction. The results of this study may be used by developing countries to acquaint parents, policy makers, administrators of high schools and universities, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Higher Education, and all educational and cultural planners. The authors maintain that the spread of new communicational technologies has had both positive and negative effects on our lives.Next, this collection addresses the degree to which First-Time in College (FTIC) community college students and non-FTIC community college students differed in their quality of on-campus and off-campus relationships. Inferential statistical analyses of responses to a national survey revealed the presence of statistically significant differences between these two groups of students in all dependent variables. Implications and recommendations for future research are provided.The following study is an attempt to investigate the relationship between foreign language motivation and anxiety among third and fourth year students attending the secondary vocational-technical Complex of Catering and Hotel Industry Schools in Wis?a, Poland. The research and discourse also take into consideration such essential factors as English language proficiency, grades and frequency of extracurricular contact with English.The authors later suggest that geology plays an important and essential role in education from an economic point of view, in the relationship between science and society and, therefore, should be present in the school syllabus. In geology teaching, learning can become more complex outside its natural environment, thus fieldwork practical activities are suggested by the curricular guidelines of different geoscience disciplinary areas and their advantages are highlighted in the literature.Focusing on several Russian undergraduate and graduate classes of different national origins, one chapter discusses the issue of college students' search for internationalized and diversified self-improvement in higher education. In addition, the discussion also ties in some general practices of English in Russian academia in comparison with the similar cases in USA, South Korea and China.A multiyear empirical investigation is presented which analyzed the degree to which economic status was related to the postsecondary enrollment of Texas public high school graduates at Texas 2-year public colleges and at 4-year public universities. Specifically analyzed were the enrollment percentages of students in poverty and students who were not poor for three academic years for Texas public high school graduates.Reflection is proposed as a skill that must be taught to preservice teachers in their education programs, and it should not be assumed that preservice teachers know how to reflect on their teaching or that they see the value in reflection. Thus, a study explores how preservice teachers perceive the value of reflection with vlogs in their reflective communication skills.In the final study, this book examines the effectiveness of conducting an in-class assessment of interpersonal functioning in a graduate psychology class for masters-level counseling psychology students. Results indicate that conducting an in-class interpersonal assessment increased students' knowledge of interpersonal theory and interpersonal methods of assessment. These findings have implications for the teaching of interpersonal assessment as well as for the practice of clinical assessment in group settings.
