Three Components

En este artículo se describen los hallazgos de la investigación titulada “Caracterización de estudiantes exitosos: Una aproximación al aprendizaje de las Ciencias Naturales”, resumidos en tres componentes imbricados entre sí: componentes motivacionales intrínsecos, motivacionales extrínsecos, y características y estrategias de aprendizaje. La investigación se desarrolló desde un paradigma interpretativo, bajo el método fenomenológico; empleando técnicas como observación, entrevista a profundidad y grupo focal. Como muestra teórico estructural no estadística se seleccionaron intencionalmente diez estudiantes con rendimientos académicos sobresalientes de la Institución Educativa Técnica Alberto Pumarejo de Malambo, Colombia. Los procesos de categorización y microanálisis permitieron que emergieran no sólo estos  tres componentes, sino también comprender la autorregulación como un fenómeno multidimensional y contextualizado, empleado por los estudiantes para tener éxito. Finalmente se prioriza sobre las actuaciones de los docentes en el uso de estrategias creativas y diversas que fomenten y desarrollen actitudes metacognitivas y autorregulatorias en los estudiantes.Characterization of successful students: An approach to the learning of the Natural SciencesAbstractThis article describes the findings of the research entitled “Characterization of successful students: An approach to the learning of the Natural Sciences”, summarized in three components interwoven with each other: intrinsic motivational components, extrinsic motivational, and learning characteristics and strategies. The research was developed from an interpretative paradigm, under the phenomenological method, using techniques such as observation, in-depth interview and focus group. As a non-statistical structural theoretical sample, ten students with outstanding academic performance of the Alberto Pumarejo Technical Educational Institution of Malambo, Colombia were intentionally selected. The processes of categorization and microanalysis allowed to emerge not only these three components, but to understand self-regulation as a multidimensional and contextualized phenomenon, used by students to be successful. Finally, it is prioritized on the actions of teachers in the use of creative and diverse strategies that promote and develop metacognitive and self-regulatory attitudes in students.Recibido: 19 de diciembre de 2016Aceptado: 05 de junio de 2017

Dasar dari perancanngan kuesioner adalah adanya  hal-hal penting dalam untuk mendapatkan informasi penting tentang kesiapan mahasiswa baru untuk implementasi e-learning Universitas. Untuk menghasilkan instrumen pengukur kesiapan e-learning yang sesuai harus dipahami terlebih dahulu konsep e-learning, kesiapan e-learning, dan penilaian kesiapan e-learning (e-learning readiness assessment). Konsep elearning yang diterapkan saat ini di Universitas Sikubank yaitu proses penyampaian materi kuliah yang meliputi penempatan materi dan interaksi antara dosen dan mahasiswa melalui Internet, yang difasilitasi oleh suatu learning management system (LMS) yang berbasis Web. Berangkat dari konsep e-learning yang diterapkan, maka dibuat studi eksploratori untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor yang menentukan kesiapan e-learning mahasiswa. Agar peneliti bisa mendapatkan pemahaman lebih jauh mengenai suatu masalah dan faktor-factor utama penentunya, dapat dilakukan penelitian yang bersifat kualitatif. Penelitian kualitatif bersifat eksploratori, tidak terstruktur, dan berdasar pada sampel yang kecil. Penelitian ini dapat dilakukan dengan mendayagunakan teknik seperti focus group (wawancara berkelompok), word association (bertanya pada responden untuk mengindikasikan respon pertama mereka pada kata-kata stimulus yang disampaikan), dan depth interview (wawancara satu-satu untuk mengetahui pikiran responden secara detil). Hasil dari suatu studi yang bersifat eksploratori sebaiknya diikuti oleh penelitian eksploratori lain atau oleh penelitian yang bersifat konklusif. Dalam studi eksploratori yang dilakukan dalam penelitian ini, teknik yang digunakan adalah Wawancara (interview).Tujuan utamanya adalah mendapatkan pengertian mendalam akan hal yang menjadi minat peneliti dengan mendengarkan sekelompok orang yang relevan dengan minat tersebut. Langkah untuk menjalankan wawancara adalah menentukan sasaran atau pertanyaan yang harus dijawab.

Traditional (age 23 and under) and nontraditional (age 25 and over) full-time undergraduates were assessed on five personal dimensions, two learning dimensions, and two collegiate goals (GPA and career decidedness). Multiple regression assessed which dimensions predicted the two collegiate goals. Significant predictors were generally the same for both traditional and nontraditional students. Academic efficacy, self-regulation, and social support were positive predictors of GPA. Career decisionmaking self-efficacy and social support were positive predictors of career decidedness. Nontraditional students and females had higher GPAs and greater decidedness. Academic performance and career development were seen as concurrent but largely separate processes.

Three Components

This paper shows a tool for the analysis of written productions that allows for the characterization of the mathematical models that students develop when solving modeling tasks. For this purpose, different conceptualizations of mathematical models in education are discussed, paying special attention to the evidence that characterizes a school model. The discussion leads to the consideration of three components, which constitute the main categories of the proposed tool: the real system to be modeled, its mathematization and the representations used to express both. These categories and the corresponding analysis procedure are explained and illustrated through two working examples, which expose the value of the tool in establishing the foci of analysis when investigating school models, and thus, suggest modeling skills. The connection of this tool with other approaches to educational research on mathematical modeling is also discussed.

Academic Self Efficacy

Drawing on the reciprocal determinism of self-regulation system, a process-based model is used to examine the relationship of learning goal orientation (LGO) among university students with their academic performance, via reciprocal relationships between initial status and change trajectories in academic self-efficacy and feedback-seeking behaviors. A longitudinal study of 316 Chinese university students throughout their first year in college reveals that students who have high LGO in their first month after entering the university generally have higher academic self-efficacy and seek more feedback. Moreover, initial levels of feedback seeking are positively related to academic performance via linear change in academic self-efficacy over time. Limitations of the study and practical implications are discussed.
