Teaching Learning

A series of theoretical empirical reflections on research skills are presented from the experience of professors and postgraduate students. The purpose is to analyze from the experience of postgraduate teachers and students in education offered by the UPNECH Chihuahua campus the teaching-learning process and identify the research skills they have developed in order to propose actions to transform the process.The phenomenological method was used with a semi-structured interview and a theoretical review of studies developed in the international context was carried out. Among the main findings is the organization's research skills that the graduate student needs to develop,the need to link the curriculum with the research for the successful development of the graduate programs is identified and a series of proposals are made to favor the development of research skills in the teaching-learning process.

Age Of Entry

Kindergarten plays an important role in a child’s socialization to the school system. Increased academic accountability at upper grades has resulted in an “escalation” of the curriculum in many kindergarten programs. As a result of this policy, many parents are holding children out of school until they are more academically “ready.” Kindergarten retention for children who are not ready for first grade has also become a common practice, despite evidence that many children do not benefit from this intervention. The impact of these policies and practices on Anglo and Latino children was the focus of this study. Differences in the age of entry to kindergarten and the use of kindergarten retention as functions of a child’s sex and ethnicity were assessed in three school districts. The impact of these policies on early school failure and alternative methods for addressing diverse student needs are discussed.

This paper identifies the inherent tensions between equity and quality of schooling in meeting diverse student needs. Intended goals of providing equity, as defined historically, are clarified in light of the shifts in meanings of quality as analyzed by Bruce Fuller over a 20-year span. Alternative goals, based on research studies and classroom observations, are presented, as well as future equity concerns for American secondary schools.

Student Audience

Contrary to the narrative of collapse that attends much of the discussion of the humanities today, recent data suggest that for many programs in the United States, at least, stagnation is the real challenge. Committed to teaching models that support faculty rather than student needs, graduate programs, in particular, are struggling to extend their reach beyond an established constituency of students interested in traditional disciplinary specialization and academic research. By emphasizing the teaching of empathy and communication, which underlie the various humanities disciplines, pursuing inter- and transdisciplinary teaching within and beyond the humanities, and securing administrative support for academic innovation, programs can find and serve a larger graduate student audience. Facing unique financial pressures, smaller colleges may prove more open to such innovation and merit greater attention in the discussion of the future of humanities graduate education.
