The purpose of the study is to find out the effect of the discussing methods of moral teaching on elementary school children and the influences caused by the cogni-tive styles so as to offer a reference to moral education. To meet our goals, the study adopts the "pretest-posttest equivalent groups de-sign" in quasi-experimental research. Samples come from convenience sampling. Six classes of 5th grade students from four elementary schools of Changhu County were selected to participate in this study. 85 students were assigned to the experimental group instructed by the moral teaching method by discussing 5 weeks courses, and 85 students as the control group who didn’t receive any treatment. The measure instruments in this study include 1)Social Issue Questionnaire, 2) Moral Behaviors Judgment Scale, 3) Morality Awareness Judgment Scale, 4) Morality Sentiment Judgment Scale, and 5) Group Embedded-Figures Tests. The major findings were as follows: 1. these 2 groups reached the distinct standards in moral judgment and moral action, and the experimental group was superior to the control group. This proved the effect of moral teaching. 2. There were significant differences between genders on moral judgement and moral action. 3. Moral teaching method by discussing reached the goal of congnitive and affective teaching. 4. Cognitive styles did not cause any influences on the discussing methods of moral teaching. 5. Most students in the research group were satisfied with the “ Moral Teaching Method By Discussing Curriculum”, and were willing to attend which means that the cur-riculum is worthwhile to promote. At last, according to the findings above, discussion is undertaken and some sug-gestions are offered as teaching practice and future study reference.

Full textThe negative impact of a history of child abuse on the executive functioning and psychological health of children and adolescents has been well documented in the international literature. However, there is a notable paucity of such studies in Arab countries. Thus, the current thesis examined the impact of abuse on cognitive functioning, cortisol levels, psychological health, social support, and parenting disciplinary styles on a cross-sectional sample of school-aged Saudi children and adolescents. The thesis contains ten studies that are divided into two parts (each part comprises five studies). The primary sample consists of 104 school-aged Saudi children and adolescents (54 males) aged 9−15 years. The aim of the first part was to compare two groups— children with a history of abuse (n = 69) and controls who had no history of abuse (n = 36). In the second part, 69 children and adolescents (36 males aged 9−15 years with a history of abuse were included. This group were classified into two groups: high behavioural problems (High-BP; n = 37) and low behavioural problems (Low-BP; n = 32). The results suggest that a higher level of abuse history is associated with more trauma symptoms, negative parenting disciplinary styles and behavioural and emotional problems. In addition, more abuse is associated with poorer executive functioning, less social support, less resilience, poorer psychological security and poorer self-regulation. The overall findings and limitations are discussed in chapter five from the perspective of their clinical implications and social sensitivities in the context of the Saudi culture and family system.

Full textDie huidige onderwyssituasie in Suid-Afrika bied 'n uitdaging om te besin oor die relevansie van bestaande kurrikulurninhoude. 'n Paradigmaverskuiwing is nodig om aan alle leerders die geleentheid te bied om hulle leerpotensiaal te optimaliseer. Hierdie studie fokus op 'n paradigmaverskuiwing in preprimere onderwys. Die verslag van die studie begin met 'n literatuurstudie wat vanuit 'n opvoedkundig-sielkundige en neurosielkundige perspektief fokus op toereik.ende leer. Die uitkoms van hierdie fokus toon die volgende kemaspekte: Kognitiewe en metakognitiewe vaardighede is 'n voorvereiste. Die opvoeder se rol as begeleier is van kardinale belang. Kognitiewe vaardighede stel die leerder in staat om sy eie logiese denksisteem te konstrueer. Die intrinsieke motivering van die leerder tot deelname aan die leerhandeling is belangrik. Neurologiese gereedheid, wat onder andere hemisferiese integrasie sowel as inter- en intrasensoriese integrasieprosesse behels, is 'n voorvereiste vir toereikende leer. Vir die opvoedkundige sielkundige wat horn ten doel stel om hierdie kognitiewe benadering tot toereikende leer in die praktyk toe te pas, is dit nodig om ontoereikende kognitiewe funksionering te identifiseer. Daar is in hierdie studie gepoog om 'n werkswyse vir die identifi.sering van ontoereikende kognitiewe funksies daar te stel aan die hand van die Junior Suid Afrikaanse Individuele Skaal. 'n Onderrigmodel wat voorsiening maak vir die ontwikkeling van kognitiewe vaardighede en neurologiese gereedheid is voorgestel. Die onderrigmodel behels die integrering van die "Bright Stan Cognitive Curriculum" van Carl Haywood en Paul Dennison se "Brain Gym" in die normale dagprogram van preprimere onderwys. Die empiriese navorsing is daarop gemik om vas te stel of dit moontlik is om die onderrigmodel in die normale dagprogram te implementeer, aangesien dit 'n bydrae sal lewer tot algemene praktykverbetering en die optimalisering van die leerpotensiaal van elke voorskoolse leerder. 'n Uiteensetting van die navorsingsontwerp en data-analise is verskaf en uit die empiriese studie kan gekonkludeer word dat die program, met noodwendige aanpassings aan die bestaande preprimere dagprogram en ook die onderrigmodel, wel 'n positiewe bydrae sal maak tot praktykverbetering en die optimalisering van die leerpotensiaal van die skoolbeginner. Hierdie aanpassings wat juis die paradigmaverskuiwing behels, is vervat in die aanbevelings wat uit hierdie studie voortvloei.
The present situation in education in South Africa offers a challenge to consider the relevance of existing curricula. A paradigm shift is necessary to provide all learners with the opportunity to optimise their learning potential. This study focuses on a paradigm shift in preprimary education. The report of the study commences with a theory framework from an educational and neuro-psychological viewpoint that focuses on effective learning. The key concepts that emerged from this study were the following: Cognitive and metacognitive skills are prerequisite to effective learning. The educator's role as mediator is of cardinal importance. Cognitive skills enable the learner to construct his own logic system for effective learning. Intrinsic motivation of the learner towards participation in the learning process is important. Neurological readiness for learning including among other aspects, the intra- and intersensory as well as hemispheric integration, is fundamental to effective learning. For the educational psychologist wishing to apply this cognitive approach to effective learning, it is necessary to be able to identify cognitive dysfunctioning. In this study an attempt is made to establish a methodology for the identification of cognitive dysfunctioning using the Junior South African Individual Scale. An educational model making provision for the development of cognitive skills and neurological readiness is proposed. This model involves the integration of "Bright Stan Cognitive Curriculum" by Carl Haywood .and "Brain Gym" by Paul Dennison into the normal preschool programme. The empirical research is intended to determine the feasibility of implementing this educational model within the existing preschool programme. A presentation of the research design and the data analysis is included in the study. From the results of the research it can be concluded that, with approriate adaption of the existing pre-primary programme and the educational model, the programme would make a positive contribution to an enhanced curriculum and thereby also the optimisation of the learning potential of the schoolbeginner. The required adaptions that will result in a paradigm shift are included in the recommendations arising from this study.
