Abstract

Contrary to theoretical assumptions, only weak relationships have emerged between feedback and reading literacy in non-experimental settings. Our study contributes to a better understanding of those weak relationships by shedding light on generalizability across specific student groups (different competence levels, multilingual learners) and contexts (countries). Using a meta-analytic approach, we analyzed the PISA 2018 dataset with data from 505,906 students from 75 countries. Our results indicate a weak overall relationship between feedback and reading literacy, an uneven distribution of feedback across competence levels, and heterogeneity across countries. In contrast, multilingual learners do not profit differently from feedback compared to their monolingual peers. Future research should focus on the mechanisms behind these differences.

Abstract

In den letzten Jahren hat die Berücksichtigung wissenschaftlicher Befunde im Bildungsbereich an Bedeutung gewonnen. Dabei zeigt sich jedoch, dass zwischen Wissenschaft und Praxis eine Lücke besteht, die dazu führt, dass wissenschaftliche Befunde nicht immer im Klassenzimmer ankommen (Researcher-Practitioner-Gap). Der vorliegende Artikel ist ein Diskussionsbeitrag, der Potenziale und Grenzen von Forschungssynthesen zur Verringerung des Researcher-Practitioner-Gaps beleuchtet. Es ergeben sich drei Hauptargumente, die zeigen, dass Forschungssynthesen in der Lage sind, den Researcher-Practitioner-Gap zu verkleinern: Überblick erleichtern, Generalisierbarkeit untersuchen und Transparenz und damit das Vertrauen in die Wissenschaft fördern. Trotz dieser Potenziale von Forschungssynthesen, den Researcher-Practitioner-Gap zu verkleinern, sollen auch Grenzen des Nutzens von Forschungssynthesen für die Praxis betrachtet werden. Hierzu zählen die Abstraktheit der Ergebnisse sowie die Schwierigkeit, Überzeugungen zu verändern. Um diesen Grenzen von Forschungssynthesen zu begegnen, spielt der Wissenschafts-Praxis-Transfer eine entscheidende Rolle. Ein wechselseitiger Austausch ermöglicht, dass empirische Evidenz in der Bildungspraxis ankommt und damit das Lehren und Lernen optimiert werden kann. Anhand eines Beispiels aus der Medienpädagogik wird die konkrete Umsetzung des Wissenschafts-Praxis-Transfers abschliessend näher beleuchtet.

Abstract

TOYOTA HAS announced at the CES consumer electronics trade show in Las Vegas that it will allow widespread use of over 5,000 of its patents relating to hydrogen-fuel-cell technology until at least 2020. "ydrogen and hydrogen-fuelcell technology will be a social, environmental and economic game-changer," Bob Carter, senior vice-president of automotive operations with Toyota US, told delegates.

8. NOKIA: The end of the line?

Author

SIMON MUNK

Abstract

Take the E18 west from Helsinki, through Finnish forests and round lakes, and in around 90 minutes you'll reach a town called Salo. The place would be unremarkable were it not for the sleek, tinted-glass factory at its heart, the production hub of Nokia. Here, in March this year, a small army of the company's engineers and workers were invited to walk to a nearby gymnasium to be told why everything they were doing was wrong.

GOOD FOR SHORT TRIPS RALEIGH OAKLAND £200, cyclelife.com Tech specs Chromoly steel frame, 18 gears, V-brakes Verdict A significant step down from the Royal (following spread), this town bike could still hack a gentle ride on country lanes. The sit-up style, flat bars and excessively sprung and heavy seat mean it's not going to perform long-distance touring duties, but for leisurely short rides, it'll do fine. . .. . .

10. How the new Mac Air fares.

Author

Nick FROST; SIMON MUNK

Abstract

I've been a Mac user for years. About ten years ago I bought a PC, the first computer I'd ever owned - apart from a ZX Spectrum and other such games machines when I was a kid. I found it tough going. That all changed when I started working in TV and film; in this business Macs are what everyone uses - and they're cool, too. I bought one right away. Those first iMacs were multi-coloured, which seemed like a madman's dream back then. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Abstract

Makers of 3D televisions have spent years dreaming fondly of a 3D future so lucrative the CEO can upgrade his megayacht to an aircraft carrier. But the first 3D device in British homes is more likely to be much smaller, devoid of fashion-error 3D glasses, and likely to shriek, 'It's-a me, Mario!' [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
