Abstract/Notes: This paper is the synthesis of Elizabeth Henke's four years of work from 2009-2013: three years at the high school and one year at the University for Peace. She summarizes, "A Montessori high school education should reveal to the adolescent a pathway to peace that is built on positive human relations and should provide opportunities for contributions to the community that result in experiences of valorization. The organizing principles of the universe and society are revealed in the core of each discipline, and a moral framework emerges before the adolescent when disciplines are explored with the help of experts." This is the first Montessori document that attempts to directly derive moral essentials from teacher interviews about formal high school disciplines that develop peaceful communication and action and bring an understanding of peace theory to students at the Montessori High School at University Circle, in Cleveland, OH.

The impact of high-stakes testing on teaching and learning: can this be predicted or controlled?

Abstract/Notes: One of the issues which attracted the attention of language testers in the 1990s was the impact of high-stakes tests on the classroom: what kind of influence did such tests have on teaching and learning and what could educators do to ensure that this was beneficial rather than harmful? Some progress was made in defining notions such as ‘impact’ and ‘washback’, and a number of studies appeared which analysed the relationship between tests and teachers’ and learners’ attitudes and behaviour. There was a growing awareness of the importance of factors other than test design in determining whether tests would have the impact that was desired. These factors also appear in the literature of educational innovation, and it is to this field that some testers turned for guidance on whether test impact could be predicted or controlled. This paper summarises what language testers have learned about test impact in the last decade and discusses what one model of educational innovation has revealed about how tests interact with other factors in the testing situation. It concludes with a set of recommendations about the steps future test developers might take in order to assess the amount of risk involved in attempting to create change through testing.

Abstract/Notes: Markmið ritgerðarinnar er að skoða nánar muninn á Montessori-aðferðinni og HighScope-stefnunni. Fjallað verður ítarlega og kynnt verður aðferð Montessori og lögð verður áhersla á hvernig aðferðin nýtist í kennslu og sem námstækni á ung börn. Kynntar verða hugmyndir um HighScope-stefnuna og hvernig hún nýtist í uppeldi frá fæðingu til snemmfullorðinsára. Til þess að fá betri skilning á slíkri tegund uppeldis þá verður stuðst við rit eftir m.a. Hohmann, David P. Weikart og Ann S. Epstein. Rýnt verður í hvernig áhrif samskiptatækni í slíku uppeldi hefur á börn og ungmenni og hvort lærdómurinn út frá uppeldinu muni nýtast þeim á snemmfullorðins og fullorðinsárum. Rannsóknarspurningin sem leitað verður svara við er, eiga uppeldisaðferðir Montessori og HighScope-stefnan samleið?Tekin verða eigindleg viðtöl við viðkomandi einstaklinga sem að nota aðferðirnar í sínu starfi. Síðan verða gögn úr viðtölum og gögn úr þemagreiningu notuð til að svara rannsóknarspurningu og verður stuðst við fyrri sambærilegar rannsóknir og ritrýndar heimildir. Þegar gerð verður grein fyrir uppeldisháttunum hvor um sig þá verða þeir settir í samhengi um notagildi þeirra og að lokum verða þeir bornir saman. Viðfangsefnið vekur upp áhuga vegna þess að báðar aðferðir og hugmyndafræðin á bak við þær hafa komið sér vel fyrir börn frá unga aldri, fyrir félagslegan og vitsmunalegan þroska þeirra sem og eigið sjálfstæði og samskiptahæfileika við önnur börn og fullorðna. Það er áhugavert að skoða hvernig nýta má Montessori-aðferðina ásamt HighScope-stefnunni. Einnig verður fjallað um hugmyndafræði Reggio Emiliu.
