Making Relevance Relevant in Mathematics Teacher Education
One of the features of the reform in school mathematics is that school mathematics should be made relevant to the learners. The incorporation of mathematical modelling in school mathematics is one of the ways that is offered to realise the relevance ideal. Ostensibly the inclusion of mathematical modelling will provide school learners opportunities to develop mathematical power i.e. the ability...
متن کاملReflections on coding standards in tertiary Computer Science education
Despite general agreement among practitioners and educators alike that the application of solid uniform coding guidelines is beneficial, the application of coding standards in computer science education seem to be problematic. We applied interpretive research to arrive at an understanding of the attitude of leturers towards coding standards. We identified five aspects of coding guidelines throu...
متن کاملReflections on Software Engineering Education
The “engineering” focus in software engineering education leaves instructors vulnerable to several traps. It also misleads students as to SE’s essential human and social dimensions. In this paper we argue that there’s more to SE than engineering. A major challenge is to reconcile the engineering dimension with the human and social dimension.
متن کاملICT4S Reaching Out: Making sustainability relevant in higher education
Many media technology and computer science engineering students suffer from the preconceived opinion that sustainability is at best peripheral, and at worst irrelevant to their education. In this paper we discuss our experiences of integrating sustainability and ICT4S into a media technology engineering programme. An overarching tension has been in finding a balance between teaching about susta...
متن کاملReflections on experimental research in medical education.
As medical education research advances, it is important that education researchers employ rigorous methods for conducting and reporting their investigations. In this article we discuss several important yet oft neglected issues in designing experimental research in education. First, randomization controls for only a subset of possible confounders. Second, the posttest-only design is inherently ...
