Like again, I told you my name is Tynesha. I got a lot of stuff to say about me, but you know, I don't know if you're going to be really interested or not. But I know I need to come here. I need something. I got two kids. My dude is at home. He's back again. He left. He comes back. He's in and out. He won't work. And I just want him there for the kids. I don't, I don't know how he sit around all day playing video games and not really helping me. I'm in nursing school. I'm trying to get my degree. My grades ain't what they supposed to be. They could be better, but they ain't because of him. He's always fussing. I can't even get my homework done. I can't get nothing done. And then everybody on me, you know, I got to work. I got to have all the money for the house. I got to take care of the kids. I got to leave work to take them to their appointments. And how much of that are they going to take before they fire me? I don't know. My friends, they help me. But they tired. They're getting tired of helping me because they say what's the point? Why is he there? He's there, and he ain't doing nothing. And you just keep taking him back, but then you ask us for our help. And I don't blame them. I know why they mad. Because they know I could do better. I'm going to nursing school. I was getting good grades. I was on the Dean's list every semester. And now here I am almost flunking. That ain't me. That ain't me. I can't keep doing this. I want my kids to have stuff. I want them to see better. I don't want them to grow up like I did in the projects or in these community apartments and watching people get shot or selling drugs. I want stuff for my family. That ain't what I want. I got to do something though because the kids, they're starting to act out at school. The teacher's calling me. They fighting with other kids. And I know what it is. You know, I know what it is. But I don't want all them people in my business. You know, but pretty soon I told him they going to be calling CSB that child protective thing or something, and then I'm going to be in trouble. Now what if they take my kids? I can't keep doing this. I can't. >> After seeing Tynesha and haring her story, prepare a response to her using three specific listening skills. These are psycho-education or information giving, self-disclosure, and immediacy. Questions: 1. Think about what you know about Tynesha's family, including her children and her partner. What additional information might be helpful? 2. What are some of the challenges involved in gathering information about family relationships when you are only speaking to one individual? 3. How could you adapt the genogram to working with a single client? What would be missing? Think beyond the simple lack of others' views and consider the dynamics. 4. At what point might you want to consider involving Tynesha's partner in counseling?

APT was compared with numerous extant methodologies, including the linear models approach and event history analysis. The fundamental difference between APT and these other approaches is that no particular mathematical model is assumed in APT. In APT a model is viewed simply as a temporal pattern, whereas in most other approaches parameters of a mathematical model are estimated from data in which variables are measured separately. Moreover, in APT probabilities of temporal patterns are estimated by relative frequency and duration. References: |
The major difference between Analysis of Patterns in Time and linear statistical models is that APT does not assume any specific mathematical model. Linear models attempt to find statistical relations between variables that have been measured separately. In APT, temporal patterns indicate relationships. Those patterns are counted in order to estimate their likelihoods. References: |

There is a design methodology called rapid prototyping, which has been used successfully in software engineering. Given similarities between software design and instructional design, we argue that rapid prototyping is a viable method for instructional design, especially for computer-based instruction.

The philosophical position known as constructivismviews knowledge as a human construction. The various perspectives within constructivism are based on the premise that knowledge is not part of an objective, external reality that is separate from the individual. Instead, human knowledge, whether the bodies of content in public disciplines (such as mathematics or sociology) or knowledge of the individual learner, is a human construction. References: |
Does knowledge exist outside of, or separate from, the individual who knows? Constructivists argue that human knowledge, such as what is known in the fields of mathematics or sociology, as well as knowledge about learning itself, is a human construction (Gredler, 2001).

To summarize, the elaboration model of instruction starts by presenting knowledge at a very general or simplified level in the form of a special kind of overview. Then it proceeds toadd detail or complexity in "layers" across the entire breadth of the content of the course (or curriculum), one layer at a time, until the desired level of detail or complexity is reached. References: |
They soon switched to a model based on the elaboration theory (Reigeluth, 1999). Using this approach, the game would begin with a level that offered the simplest version of the whole task (the epitome); subsequent levels would become increasingly more complex--an approach common to videogames--with opportunities for review and synthesis.

In a complex task such as creating a website for learning, instructors may want to support the generation of multiple solutions in learners' peer feedback. Anonymity may create a social context where learners feel freer to express varied ideas, and make the task of giving feedback less inhibited. However, teachers need to know just how anonymity impacts the learning dynamic in order to make informed choices about when anonymous configurations are appropriate in peer feedback. References: |
Increased availability of technology in my classroom makes it easier for peer feedback activities to be conducted anonymously which "may create a social context where learners feel freer to express varied ideas, and make the task of giving feedback less inhibited" (Howard, Barrett, & Frick, 2010, p. 90). However, I worry that my students may be overly harsh if they don't have to stand by their comments. References: |

While solitary negative reactions or unjustified suggestions for change have the potential to dissipate discourse rather than build it, the pattern analysis shows that the anonymous condition seemed to provide a safe explorative space for learners to try out more reasons for their multiple solutions. Teachers will rarely give anonymous feedback, but the experience of giving anonymous feedback may open a social space where learners can try out the reasons for their suggestions. References: |
In their study of anonymity in an online peer feedback activity, the authors found that, under conditions of anonymity, learners seemed more inclined to provide reasons to back up their suggestions (Howard, Barrett, & Frick, 2010). Getting both suggestions and the reasons for the suggestions would be welcome in feedback I receive from peers or my instructors. Seeing the reasons would help me know that the suggestions have been thought through (even if I don't always agree with them). References: |

First, the potential of digital games is discussed using the tutor/tool/tutee framework proposed by Taylor (1980). Second, the potential of digital games to enhance learning by connecting game worlds and real worlds is stated. Third, the possibility of digital games to facilitate collaborative problem-solving is addressed. Fourth, the capability of digital games to provide an affective environment for science learning is suggested. Last, the potential of using digital games to promote science learning for younger students is indicated. References: |
There are five advantages of using games in science learning stated in the literature. Games can be used as tools; make connections between virtual worlds and the real world; promote collaborative problem solving; provide affective and safe environments; and encourage younger students for science learning. |

Suppose you study a group of successful companies and you find that they emphasize customer focus, or quality improvement, or empowerment; how do you know that you haven't merely discovered the management practice equivalent of having buildings? How do you know that you've discovered something that distinguishes the successful companies from other companies? You don't know. You can't know--not unless you have a control set, a comparison group. References: |
Attributes of rigorous research can be shared across subjects of study. For example, Collins and Porras (2002) highlight the importance of having a control group when comparing companies in any effort to identify what specific company characteristics are able to distinguish the successful from the ordinary.

The game-based laboratory was vastly different from their expectations and experiences of a typical laboratory; this might have resulted in the students being disconnected from the learning aspect of the game. However, the students' comments suggested that their discomfort with the video game was due to the fact that they did not perceive that a video game could really be educational. The game became a disruption to their traditional ways of science learning and interfered with how they perceived the learning experience. This perspective is potentially problematic as it suggests that pedagogical disruptions such as video games that are designed to be powerful learning tools simply may not work for all students. References: |
Since a game-based laboratory provides a virtual environment with different experiences than in a real lab, students may fail to connect these virtual experiences to real lab experiences. Student and teacher beliefs that games are entertainment tools, not educational tools, may minimize the potential of video games intended to help students learn science. References: |

But what are reasonable outcomes of the influence of global processes on education?While the question of how global processes influence all aspects of education (and who controls these forces) is multidimensional and not completely testable, there appear to be some theories of globalization as it relates to education that can be empirically examined. References: |
Rutkowski and Rutkowski (2009) ask "what are reasonable outcomes of the influence of global processes on education?" (p. 138). This question is not entirely testable and has multiple dimensions but theories of globalization's impact on education exist and provide means of empirical analysis. References: |
