This paper discusses the Khanyisa Programme, an initiative in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, where learners from under-resourced schools are supported by teachers and high achievers in Grade 11 and 12 from a previously advantaged state school under apartheid. A qualitative, evaluative study was undertaken to identify key elements in the ongoing success of the programme and collect participant suggestions for improvement. The findings, discussed within the framework of self-efficacy theory, identified enormous gains by Khanyisa learners, leading to vastly improved career prospects. 相似文献

Public Law 94–142 requires that public school districts provide special service programs to handicapped and potentially handicapped children with diverse psychological, educational, and physical needs. In order for such programs to be developed and implemented in an appropriate and timely manner, procedures for assessment of pupil needs as well as assessment of school district resources that might address those needs, have been considered as important service delivery prerequisites. Toward that end, a Multidimensional Needs Assessment Framework, which has been developed by the authors and used in numerous public schools, is described in this paper. The Framework, which allows needs assessment to be seen as an integral part of the program planning process, requires that needs assessment and program planning activities occur in relation to three distinct, yet interrelated dimensions: Special Service Recipients, Special Service Resources, and Organizational Unit. Considerations necessary for design and implementation of needs assessment using the Framework are discussed, and suggestions for further development of the approach are noted. 相似文献

Experiments with incentives in telephone surveys 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
In an effort to counter the problem of noncooperation, survey organizations are offering incentives to respondents with increasing frequency, some at the outset of the survey, as has traditionally been done in mail surveys, and some only after the person has refused, in an attempt to convert the refusal. This article reports on a series of experiments carried out over a period of about 2 years with a monthly telephone survey, the Survey of Consumer Attitudes, in an effort to increase response rates or reduce interviewer effort. We report on experiments with prepaid versus promised incentives; advance letters; and advance letters with prepaid incentives; and we also report on the effects of incentives on response quality, sample composition, response bias, interviewer and respondent expectations, and costs. 相似文献

This study demonstrates the considerations involved in evaluation research into the effectiveness of campaigns designed to influence social change. It is an examination of the results of applying aspects of the attitude change studies to the subject of environmental issues. A case study was made of the Smallternatives energy conservation campaign which originated in 1976 in Brisbane, at a time of little recognition of an energy 'crisis' for Australia or the need for energy conservation. Results indicated that levels of concern for environmental issues were present throughout the sample; that one group (who requested Smallternatives information) were more concerned about energy and environmental issues than groups who had not requested it; and that the booklet, when issued without request, had little or no effect on desired attitudes towards energy conservation. These results are discussed with respect to the dilemma of attitude-behaviour consistency, and the impact of information input when it is sent to, rather than requested by, the individual. 相似文献

This paper will discuss the emotional developmental problems displayed by those who are deaf at birth. In order to provide an in-depth understanding of the emotional needs of the prelinguistic infant the distinctive perspectives and concerns of various developmental psychologies will be reviewed. The tremendous need for mental health and social work services for the deaf population and their families has been rarely discussed, therefore, the last stage of this presentation will provide some suggestions for clinical treatment and prevention programs for deaf individuals. 相似文献
