Book excerpt: A study was conducted in which both notetaking and review were systematically varied in order to examine viii eighth-grade student's notetaking and performance behaviors. Three formats of notes (Matrix, skeletal, conventional) were examined in combination with three notetaking strategies (take notes/review own notes, take notes/review expert notes, listen/review expert notes) to form nine conditions. Subjects viewed a videotaped lecture, reviewed their respective set of notes, and were administered the following performance tests: structured recall, factual recognition, application, and synthesis. The number of ideas, number of words, and an efficiency calculation was obtained for each notetaking protocol. Results indicated that subjects reviewing a matrix format outperformed those reviewing a skeletal outline format on the application test, a higher-order measure. Subjects recorded an average of less than 30% of the total lecture ideas, and females recorded significantly more words and ideas than did males. Females also outperformed males on tests of structured recall and factual recognition. Speculation was that females' more complete product of notes contributed to their higher performance on the factual-ordered tests. Their performance was not significantly different from males' on the higher-ordered tests.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the start of the 21st century large scale educational initiatives reshaped the landscape of general education setting rigorous academic expectations to all students. Despite the legal efforts to improve K-12 education, an abundance of research indicates that students entering college often lack basic learning and study skills. For adolescents with learning disabilities, however, these challenges are even greater. While the number of students with learning disabilities who receive their education in the general education content-areas classes continues to grow, information lags behind as to how to effectively adapt instruction to support these students and improve their academic achievement. In view of the research supporting the conjunctive use of note-taking and review, the current study involved instruction in note-taking using the Cornell method and review strategy with the use of summarization and question generation with sixty eighth grade students with and without disabilities from social studies classes in a public middle school. The current study focused on the evaluation and comparison of students with and without disabilities note-taking and review skills as well as comprehension of lecture content. Specifically, the research sought to answer the following questions: Would students' note-taking, and review skills improve as a result of strategy training? Would comprehension of the material improve with strategy intervention? What are the differences between students with and without disabilities in their note-taking and review strategies prior to and after intervention? A nonrandomized pre-test-posttest design with experimental and intervention condition was employed to evaluate student performance. Strategy training and business-as-usual practice sessions were provided by the researcher. Data analysis comprised of students' quantity and quality of notes and comprehension of lecture content before and after strategy training. The results of the current study suggest that successful strategy training should be time and mastery based in order ensure student success. The findings of the current study were inconclusive regarding the effectiveness of strategy training in note-taking and review on student performance. Lastly, differences between students with and without disabilities on note-taking, study, and test performance were mixed.

Download or read book Effects of Peer Review on Student Performance and Attitude in an Urban Eighth Grade Physical Science Classroom written by David Joseph Bates and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research centered on the effects peer review had on the students of an urban eighth grade physical science classroom. Students were first taught how to use rubrics to assess their own products, and then they used this skill to review products of their peers. Diagram assignments, quizzes, tests, surveys, and interview tools were all used to collect data on how the process affected the students' academic performances and attitudes. Phases of research were set in six-week cycles with the first and third as non-treatment units and the second and fourth as the treatments. Two or three rubric-based diagram assignments, two quizzes, and one test were used every six weeks to collect data. The results indicated there was an improvement in the students' attitudes towards cooperative learning but there was no significant increase in assignment or assessment performances.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume reflects the multiplicity of perspectives in the theory and practice of creativity, while it is broadly accepted that the dynamism of humanity’s responses to our evolving scientific, social and environmental needs depends on our creativity. It examines the central issues that animate the themes of creativity, talent development and excellence in schools and in the workplace, as well as analysing their related socio-cultural activities and processes. Forged in the workshops of a number of conferences and symposia, this collection represents in itself a creative partnership between European and Asian academics. Thus it includes contributions from various cultural and organizational settings, as well as chapters that enhance our conceptual models of creativity in both learning and teaching. The contributing authors recognize that exploring the nature of creativity necessitates a new paradigm in research and praxis in which integration, collaboration, and the synthesis of knowledge and expertise are key factors. Their chapters detail the results of studies relating to to creativity, talent, school excellence, team and goal setting, innovation and organizational excellence, resilience, self-regulation, and personal epistemology. Clearly defined sections take on discrete aspects of the topic that include a vital assessment of the challenges that lie ahead in fostering the creativity, talent and excellence of the young and in doing so, allowing them to play a positive and innovative role in a variety of social contexts.
