Digital media literacy has become an intrinsic component in shaping high school students’ knowledge acquisition and critical thoughts. Over the last two decades, internet and computers have been the implemented tools to reach such goals and promote the students’ learning. This article looks for the impact of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) on Tunisian secondary school students by detecting their technical skills as well as their critical understanding. This quantitative study relies on a self-reporting approach and targets 150 Tunisian secondary students. It proves the necessary consideration of technological and social variables in helping sort out major digital handicaps related to secondary students and displays the interconnectedness between the different dimensions of digital media literacy. It also displays that Tunisian high school students cannot be referred to as digital-media literate people. The study contributes to the field of digital media literacy as it offers a solid empirical background to build on and indicates the necessity of integrating digital media literacy into the school-based initiatives.

Innovators and abstract thinkers - students who question why are going to be the future of engineering, of science and cures for diseases. Rarely do students ask where and how innovation is created. Students, particularly post-secondary students have lost their curiosity and they have lost their ability to question. Why? Because the relationship between theory and application has been removed from our high schools. Although the term “STEM” is generally used, students do not appear to understand the importance of core STEM principles such as Newton’s 2nd law and therefore do not understand the influence these basic algorithms have in daily life. In recent decades, high school education has focused on quizzes and exams, state and national standardize testing and SATs. More emphasis is placed on performing well on these exams, focusing on memorization and test taking rather than on thorough comprehension. The question is, “how do you translate theory to application in the high school classroom?” Students’ knowledge and engagement are only as good as their teachers. Educators need to be given the proper tools, resources, and knowledge. CAPSULE, a capstone-based experience provides tools, resources, and knowledge to enhance the teaching and learning involvement. CAPSULE teaches and promotes inquiry, exploration and application rather than just theory. The methodology engages and educates hands-on learning, teamwork and multiple solutions through the engineering design process (EDP). The theory behind innovation is the motivation for CAPSULE – to teach and engage teachers using 3D modeling, EDP, and project-based learning to create a high school capstone experience. This paper presents a new approach of teaching STEM related courses to high school students. The methodology presented is on “training the trainer” to enable and empower teachers to master and utilize this new approach.

El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo analizar la relación entre el sexismo (hostil y benevolente) y los estilos de manejo de conflictos (agresivo, cooperativo y pasivo) que los estudiantes de bachillerato reportan emplear al manejar sus conflictos con sus compañeros de aula hombres y mujeres. La muestra (N = 282) estuvo compuesta por estudiantes de bachillerato de las ciudades de Guadalajara y de Colima, México, con rango de edad de 14 a 19 años. Los participantes respondieron el Cuestionario Conflictalk y el Inventario de Sexismo Ambivalente para Adolescentes. Se llevó a cabo un análisis correlacional de Pearson entre las variables de estudio en la submuestra de hombres (n = 126) y otro en la submuestra de mujeres (n = 156). En los resultados se encontró que, en los conflictos de los hombres con las mujeres, los estilos cooperativo y pasivo correlacionaron positivamente con Sexismo Benevolente, y el estilo agresivo con Sexismo Hostil. Por otra parte, en los conflictos de las mujeres con sus compañeras mujeres, el estilo agresivo correlacionó positivamente con Sexismo Hostil. Estos hallazgos sugieren que, probablemente, los adolescentes varones que presentan mayores creencias y actitudes sexistas benevolentes tiendan a adoptar actitudes y comportamientos más complacientes, cooperativos y/o evitativos frente a sus compañeras mujeres cuando tienen conflictos con ellas. Por el contrario, los adolescentes varones que presentan mayores creencias y actitudes sexistas hostiles posiblemente tienden a adoptar un estilo agresivo en los conflictos con sus compañeras mujeres. Por su parte, en la submuestra de mujeres, los resultados sugieren que, probablemente, las adolescentes que presentan mayores creencias y actitudes sexistas hostiles tiendan a adoptar un estilo agresivo en los conflictos con sus compañeras mujeres. Se discuten estos resultados en el marco de la Teoría del Sexismo Ambivalente y de la literatura sobre gestión de conflictos en la adolescencia.

El presente trabajo indaga sobre las manifestaciones de violencia en una escuela secundaria de una comunidad indígena de Chiapas. Para ello se realizaron entrevistas a estudiantes, directivos y docentes del centro escolar. El análisis de la información se llevó a cabo mediante la comprensión amplia de los registros, la extracción de unidades y el desarrollo, delimitación e interpretación de categorías. Los resultados indican que las manifestaciones de violencia son comunes en este grupo de escolares: golpes, insultos y abuso a los más débiles y las mujeres. Las vías de mediación utilizadas son el diálogo y la búsqueda de apoyo en la familia o docentes. La manifestación de dicha violencia revela tensión en las relaciones entre los estudiantes, así como el consumo de alcohol.

Introducción. La composición corporal y otros componentes de la condición física han demostrado ser importantes indicadores de la condición de salud.Objetivo. Analizar la composición corporal y la condición física de escolares colombianos de educación secundaria y media de las instituciones oficiales de Ibagué, estudiar las diferencias por sexo y edad, y establecer la correlación entre algunas variables.Materiales y métodos. Participaron 1.253 estudiantes (601 hombres y 652 mujeres), con un rango de edad entre los 10 y los 20 años. Se aplicaron las pruebas físicas de la batería ALPHA-Fitness en su versión extendida. Se evaluó el índice de masa corporal (IMC), el perímetro de la cintura y el porcentaje de grasa.Resultados. Se encontraron diferencias por sexo en las variables estudiadas, con mayor IMC y porcentaje de grasa en las mujeres que en los hombres (20,6 Vs. 19,4 kg/m2 y 26,1 Vs. 16,8 %, respectivamente); sin embargo, el perímetro de cintura fue mayor en los hombres (69,6 cm Vs. 67,9 cm), aunque ellos registraron mejor rendimiento en el resto de pruebas físicas (p<0,05). En ambos sexos la edad se asoció con aumentos del IMC (p<0,05) y, en las mujeres, con el porcentaje de grasa (p<0,05), lo que no ocurrió en los hombres, en quienes la edad se asoció inversamente con la grasa corporal (p<0,05). En el resto de las pruebas físicas, la edad se asoció positivamente con el rendimiento en ambos sexos, excepto en el consumo máximo de oxígeno (VO2 máx). Se hallaron correlaciones entre algunas de las variables estudiadas.Conclusiones. La adiposidad fue significativamente mayor en las mujeres que en los hombres (p<0,05). Los hombres tuvieron mejores niveles de capacidad aeróbica, musculoesquelética y motora.

The current article describes the evaluation of a service-based learning model as part of a special education course focused on secondary programming for students with disabilities. A total of 42 preservice teachers and 21 high school juniors and seniors with disabilities actively participated in the service learning project at a local high school. Preservice teachers conducted a transition assessment, developed and implemented lesson plans for postsecondary skill development with a high school student, presented their results to local high school personnel, and completed a self-assessment of their level of confidence in transition education for secondary students. Overall, preservice teachers reported confidence in transition planning and in designing and delivering instructional opportunities based on assessment of high school students’ transition needs. Moreover, the preservice teachers met the course learning standards by working directly with high school students. Barriers and recommendations for personnel preparation and research are discussed.

This article details Cultural DeCoding, a humanities based high school extension program for gifted and talented Year 11 and 12 students in Western Australia. The brainchild of Dr Annette Pedersen (UWA & John XXIII College) and Dr Angela McCarthy (UNDA), the program runs for four days across the summer holidays before the start of the school term. The program fills a gap that exists in the education of gifted and talented secondary students who are interested in the humanities. It is comprised of sessions run by academics who facilitate discussion and activities based on their area of research and teaching expertise. The group is deliberately kept small in order to give students a chance to engage deeply and respectfully with like-minded others. The intention is to give these students an experience of what university will be like, and to have a chance to think philosophically; namely, critically, creatively and morally, in collaboration with others.
