Download or read book Learning Begins written by Andrew C. Watson and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-03-08 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning Begins, written by a teacher for teachers, translates current brain research into practical classroom strategies. Because students learn with their brains, it simply makes sense for teachers to explore educational psychology and neuroscience. And yet, information in these fields can be daunting and contradictory. Worse still, few researchers can clearly explain the specific classroom uses of their remarkable discoveries. Learning Begins both explains this research and makes it useful for teachers and administrators. Part I investigates the science of working memory: a cognitive capacity essential to all school work. When teachers recognize the many classroom perils that can overwhelm working memory, they can use research-aligned strategies to protect it, and thereby promote student learning. Part II reveals the complexities of student attention. By understanding the three neural sub-processes that create attention, teachers can structure their classrooms and their lessons to help students focus on and understand new material. Written in a lively and approachable voice, based on years of classroom experience and a decade of scientific study, Learning Begins makes educational psychology and neuroscience clear and useful in schools and classrooms.
Download or read book The Effects of Music on Reading Comprehension written by Özlem Erten and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this study was to examine the effects of listening to music while reading on reading comprehension performance. The participants of this study were made up of 129 eighth grade students. The study was modeled by the randomized posttest-only control group design. A Music Appreciation Test and A Reading Comprehension Test, originally developed by the researcher, were used to determine the students' music preferences and reading comprehension performance, respectively. The results showed that the reading comprehension performance of the students who read the passage with their non-favored non-verbal music, non-favored verbal music, and favored verbal music were significantly poorer than those students who did not listen music while reading the same passage. Importantly, the current results also demonstrated that the reading comprehension performance of the students who listened to their favored instrumental music while reading did not considerably differ from the reading comprehension performance of those who did not listen to music.

Download or read book The Effect of Music on the Reading Comprehension of Junior High School Students written by Stacey A. Anderson and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students often claim they can study for exams and complete homework assignments effectively while listening to music. However, scores on national achievement tests indicate otherwise. Empirical studies of the effects of lyrical music on reading comprehension are limited and mixed in their findings. The purpose of this quantitative study was to investigate the effects of lyrical music on the performance of a reading comprehension task in junior high school students. Theories such as personal construct theory and social identity theory formed the basis for the study; concepts such as attention and distraction, self-discipline and self-regulation, and the role of music in adolescent identity development and formation were considered. Three-hundred-thirty-four 7 th and 8th graders completed the reading comprehension subtest of the Gates-MacGinitie Reading Tests, Fourth Edition, under nonmusic conditions and with accompanying music composed of Billboard Magazine's Top Hit Singles. Following the music portion of the test, the students completed a survey to assess their preference for or against listening to music as they study. An Analysis of Variance procedure determined that the reading performance declined significantly when listening to music. A point-biserial correlation illustrated a more pronounced detrimental effect on comprehension for students exhibiting a stronger preference for listening to music while studying. Results are important for furthering student, parent, and educator understanding of the internal and external influences on study habits with the goal of designing, implementing, and evaluating support systems and strategies uniquely tailored to the developmental needs and personal preferences of adolescents.
Download or read book The End of Average written by Todd Rose and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2016-01-19 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you above average? Is your child an A student? Is your employee an introvert or an extrovert? Every day we are measured against the yardstick of averages, judged according to how closely we come to it or how far we deviate from it. The assumption that metrics comparing us to an average—like GPAs, personality test results, and performance review ratings—reveal something meaningful about our potential is so ingrained in our consciousness that we don’t even question it. That assumption, says Harvard’s Todd Rose, is spectacularly—and scientifically—wrong. In The End of Average, Rose, a rising star in the new field of the science of the individual shows that no one is average. Not you. Not your kids. Not your employees. This isn’t hollow sloganeering—it’s a mathematical fact with enormous practical consequences. But while we know people learn and develop in distinctive ways, these unique patterns of behaviors are lost in our schools and businesses which have been designed around the mythical “average person.” This average-size-fits-all model ignores our differences and fails at recognizing talent. It’s time to change it. Weaving science, history, and his personal experiences as a high school dropout, Rose offers a powerful alternative to understanding individuals through averages: the three principles of individuality. The jaggedness principle (talent is always jagged), the context principle (traits are a myth), and the pathways principle (we all walk the road less traveled) help us understand our true uniqueness—and that of others—and how to take full advantage of individuality to gain an edge in life. Read this powerful manifesto in the ranks of Drive, Quiet, and Mindset—and you won’t see averages or talent in the same way again.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of The Oxford Handbook of Music Psychology updates the original landmark text and provides a comprehensive review of the latest developments in this fast-growing area of research. Covering both experimental and theoretical perspectives, each of the 11 sections is edited by an internationally recognised authority in the area. The first ten parts present chapters that focus on specific areas of music psychology: the origins and functions of music; music perception, responses to music; music and the brain; musical development; learning musical skills; musical performance; composition and improvisation; the role of music in everyday life; and music therapy. In each part authors critically review the literature, highlight current issues and explore possibilities for the future. The final part examines how, in recent years, the study of music psychology has broadened to include a range of other disciplines. It considers the way that research has developed in relation to technological advances, and points the direction for further development in the field. With contributions from internationally recognised experts across 55 chapters, it is an essential resource for students and researchers in psychology and musicology.

Download or read book The Effect of Listening to Music on Reading Comprehension written by Rebekah Kakos and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research has shown that listening to music while studying can have an impact on student's ability to retain information. Students may score lower on reading comprehension tests when in a music listening condition as compared to studying in silence. This goes against the popular theory of a positive "Mozart Effect" on performance outcomes. Therefore, the purpose of the current study was to examine the effects of different listening conditions on reading comprehension in college students. The current study utilized data from college students to offer insight into the effects of music. Results show that listening to vocal music while doing a reading comprehension task may be especially distracting to students. This study may help to identify effective study habits for students.
