Abstract:

“Spotlight on the Standards” focuses on the grades 6–8 content and process standards found in NCTM's Principles and Standards for School Mathematics (2000). The articles compare NCTM's Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics, published in 1989, with the Principles and Standards relating to the middle grades and suggest ways that teachers might incorporate Standards-based practices into their instruction.

Abstract:

The present study investigated the influence of information on grading standards and assigned grades on expected grades and students' ratings of instruction. Introductory psychology students ( n = 117) first viewed a videotaped lecture and completed an examination over the content. Using a 3 × 3 factorial design, students were randomly assigned to one of three conditions of information on instructors' grading (hard, fair, easy) and, based on their examination scores, to one of three conditions of assigned grades (A, B, C). The students were then asked to indicate their expected grades and comp

The NCTM's Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics states, “Evaluation is a tool for implementing the Standards and effecting change systematically” (1989, 189). Tests are one facet of evaluation, and we maintain that mathematics classes are strongly affected by the way in which test scores are used to generate final course grades. In the traditional secondary school mathematics class, current grading practices tend to drive instruction by putting constraints on specific course content and its organization. In turn, content and its organization affect testing and therefore g

The current framework of the crosscutting concepts fails to provide a narrative for what makes biology distinctive and how biological scientists reason.

Aim. The study of the incidence among school-age children, and development of a complex of medico-biological, medico-social and organizational measures for improving health status of schoolchildren. Methods. Statistical, mathematical, sociological. Results. Morbidity among children in Kazan in 2015-2017 increased to 20.4%, incidence during this period increased by 38.6%. The conducted examination of physical development of schoolchildren revealed significant decrease of the ratio of students with normal physical development. While in primary school this parameter was 85.3±2.17%, in grades 8 to

Abstract:

Due to increased tourist activity, many cities now have a large number of hotel buildings. It is necessary to establish measures to evaluate energy use intensity to effectively manage energy consumption in this sector. This study uses a combined strategy to establish an energy benchmark for hotel buildings in Vietnam. First, a survey and analysis of actual building stock data of 50 hotels in Danang, Vietnam, was conducted. The survey-based benchmark and its related data was then used to build a reference energy model to estimate an energy benchmark for other climatic regions in Vietnam by usin

Abstract:

Evolution by natural selection is key to understanding life and of considerable practical importance in public health, medicine, biotechnology, and agriculture. The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) include natural selection among several evolutionary concepts that all third-graders should know. This article explores a novel approach to developing and testing curricula for teaching natural selection and related concepts to children. College students developed lesson plans with specific evolutionary learning objectives based on the NGSS and taught them at elementary schools. Learning was

Abstract:

This article describes the basic principles of interactive language teaching, as currently developed by the National Centre for Language Education (Expertisecentrum Nederlands). Based on a social constructivist view on learning and development, we argue that language education in the primary grades should aim at social, authentic, and strategic learning. We show how these principles are applied to the teaching o f oral/communicative language skills and vocabulary acquisition. A framework for literacy standards, and its consequences for assessment is also discussed.

Abstract:

The first Ukrainian standard ДСТУ 4044 “Viscous petroleum road bitumens. Technical conditions” was implemented in 2002. According to its content and list of indicators, it met the level of the oil refining industry of Ukraine and the state of the road industry. In addition to conventional indicators, it included additional indicators of adhesion and mass content of paraffins. The indicator for paraffin remained unregulated, because there was neither acceptable method nor necessary equipment, and in generally an intention of manufacturers and users to apply it.

Abstract:

Progress in the development and adoption of the Meat Standards Australia system has encouraged substantial change and an improved consumer awareness at all points of the Australian beef production chain. The system is moving from niche to mainstream market application with the exciting potential to transform many industry practices and build a more direct consumer focus. The system aims to accurately predict consumer satisfaction levels for individual cooked beef portions. This is a major advance on grading systems that classify carcasses into groups of like appearance. A prediction model was

Abstract:

In this article, we examine student performance on mandated tests in grades 3, 4, and 5 in one state. We focus on this interval, which we term "the fourth grade window," based on our hypothesis that students in grade four are particularly vulnerable to decrements in achievement. The national focus on the third grade as the critical benchmark in student performance has distracted researchers and policy makers from recognition that the fourth grade transition is essential to our understanding of how to promote complex thinking and reasoning that are built upon a foundation of basic skills that m

We examined the diagnostic accuracy and efficiency of three approaches to universal screening for reading difficulties using retrospective data from 1,307 students in Grades 3 through 5. School staff collected screening data using the Measures of Academic Progress (MAP), a curriculum-based measure (CBM), and running records (RR). The criterion measure was a high-stakes state accountability test aligned with the Common Core State Standards. We examined the diagnostic accuracy of the tests in isolation, as multivariate batteries, and via a simulated gated-screening approach. CBM and RR data resu

Abstract:

A major trial was conducted to develop, test and demonstrate the application of Meat Standards Australia (MSA) research findings in a beef retailing environment. A new concept retail store was established whereby a mix of raw beef products and pre-cooked meals were merchandised under an eating quality grade defined by MSA palatability scores. Products were presented fully prepared within cooking method with pricing based on the predicted cooked results. Large price differentials were established between the three grades offered, with 5-star product priced at more than double the 3-star product

Abstract:

Molybdenum disulfide is a successful solid lubricant because of its cleavage of the basal plane at the time of sliding, which helps to retain the lubrication nature in order to reduce wear and to maintain frictional stability. Thus the present study deals with the development of copper-free brake pads using molybdenum disulfide that possesses different grades based on the particle size, namely, technical (coarse), fine and superfine. The brake pads were developed using conventional manufacturing processes and characterized for its physical, chemical, thermal and mechanical properties as per in
