How engaged are pre-service teachers in the United States?
No full textUsing the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE), findings are reported from the largest ever longitudinal study of engagement among pre-service teachers. Levels of engagement are investigated in 2013 (N = 1609) and 2016 (N = 1413) across 256 U.S. institutions. Using multilevel models, findings indicated that female, white pre-service teachers were less engaged than their male, minority counterparts with small to moderate effect sizes that differed by year. Institutional type, sector, and size were also significantly associated with pre-service teacher engagement. ACT prior achievement scores, however, were not associated with pre-service teacher engagement in either year. Implications for teacher preparation are discussed

No full textAlong the Waterfront piece about boatbuilder David Corcoran, who has built a new boatbuilding shop in Arundel within two miles of the Landing School where he was formerly a student and a teacher. Corcoran has built four E-class sloops so far, and plans to build one, perhaps two, more this winter, along with other wooden-boat projects in the offing

A Multi-Language Comparison of Influences on Author Verification using Character N-Grams
No full textWe create a new multi-language corpus for author verification based on Wikipedia talkpages, and evaluate the influence that differences in topic and time have on character n-gram author profiles. Topic alignment between two texts is found to increase author verification precision, and an authors writing style is found to change over time, but not more significantly after 3 years than after 1 year.Information ArchitectureWISElectrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Scienc
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Effective universal school-based social and emotional learning programs for improving academic achievement: A systematic review and meta-analysis of 50 years of research
No full text© 2017 This review explored the research regarding the effects of pre-K-12 school-based social and emotional learning (SEL) interventions on reading (N = 57,755), mathematics (N = 61,360), and science (N = 16,380) achievement. The review focused on research that met the criteria for high methodological standards. Further, methodological and substantive characteristics of these studies were examined to investigate the association between SEL and study characteristics. There were 40 studies that qualified that were included in the final analysis based on pre-K-12 participants. The results of this review found that SEL had a positive effect on reading (ES = +0.25), mathematics (ES = +0.26), and (though small) science (ES = +0.19) compared to traditional methods, consistent with previous reviews. However, SEL programs from more rigorous randomized studies with large sample sizes that have dominated the classroom over the last few decades might not have as meaningful effects for pre-K-12 students as once thought. More randomized studies are needed to confirm these conclusions
