Progress in Education: Volume 71

Editat de Roberta V. Nata
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 dec 2021
This volume includes six chapters showcasing recent developments in education research. Chapter One introduces the constructs of dyspraxia, developmental coordination disorders and motor difficulties, and describes the historical background of the "clumsy child" syndrome and what schools can do to prevent bullying. Chapter Two provides an overview of the historical developments surrounding education of children with learning disabilities and emphasises the need to update current mainstream teaching methods. Chapter Three discusses children with reading difficulties, such as dyslexia, in the Persian language. Chapter Four deals with issues related to school management, including insufficient funding and lack of professional training, in Slovakia. Chapter Five includes a study that investigates whether teaching metacomprehension and reading strategies can improve third-grade students' reading comprehension and differential effects as a function of gender and socioeconomic status. Lastly, Chapter Six illustrates an innovative way of presenting conditional probability and Bayes' rule through George Polya's (1954) plausible reasoning pattern and syllogisms, promoting statistical novices' knowledge to a larger degree by emphasising the underlying logic and rationale behind the mathematical formulas.
