Abstract:

PROBLEM: Programs to educate Hispanics for ministry require special training , knowledge of students' needs, appropriate curriculum, teaching methodology, and educational materials. PURPOSE: To identify the teachers' background and preparation, the students' general characteristics, and the characteristics and problems of the educational process. To draw recommendations for improving teacher training, curriculum planning, teaching methodology, and educational materials. PROCEDURE: Questionnaires were distributed among all teachers in Catholic Education for Ministry Among Hispanics (CEMH) in California. This study is based on 54 questionnaires that represent 67% of the population estimated. CONCLUSIONS: Most of the teachers were bilingual lay women born in Latin American countries. Their main goals were evangelization, integral education, education for ministry, and building the Kingdom of God. One third of the teachers had only undergraduate studies. Only one third had studies in education. A large proportion reported inadequate knowledge in theology, Church teachings and Church history, moral development, ethics, anthropology, sociology, economy, counseling, and teaching and planning techniques. The students were mainly women, Spanish monolingual, with elementary education, under 40 years of age. The courses usually had less than 30 students and more than 100 hours per year. Teachers reported students' interaction, exams and class presentations; and lectures among the most used and effective methods, and reading aloud and memorization as ineffective but also generally used. Few teachers used supervised practice. Pastoral differences with Anglo administrative personnel, lack of educational materials and time pressure were the most frequent problems. RECOMMENDATIONS: (a) to train teachers as educators, offering them courses on all the subjects needed and including supervised practice; (b) to form multicultural/multi-ministerial teaching teams and provide education for the cognitive, affective and motor domains, emphasizing the pastoral approach of the Second Vatican Council; (c) to formalize ministries through certification and a system of ongoing education; (d) to establish dialogue and collaboration between teachers in CEMH and Anglo administrative personnel; (e) to design specific materials for CEMH, to establish a clearinghouse for teachers' hand-made materials, and to elaborate an annotated bibliography of resources; (f) to replicate this study among English speaking, to develop studies on the types of programs existing, the role of Hispanic women in ministry, a comparison between Hispanic lay ministers and active and inactive Catholics, and a direct evaluation of the effectiveness of different teaching methods for CEMH.

Abstract:

This study aims to provide a comprehensive view of the national educational system, and then to determine the values of some internationally-used indicators within Oman's schools, and their effects upon student performance in the 12 th grade examinations. From this analysis, the relationships between each variable and the optimal values for overall improvements in the total examination marks of students in the 12 th grade are derived. In pursuing this aim, the research conducts the first statistical analysis of ten educational indicators using data gathered by the Omani Ministry of Education. A logistic regression method is adopted to study repetition, drop-out, and promotion rates, using data pertaining to the school years 2006/2007-2007/2008. The analysis in this respect includes all governmental schools' students in grades 1-12. A linear mixed model is then used to explore data for the school years 2005/2006-2007/2008, relating to class size, school size, student/teacher ratio, teacher/class ratio, student age, student gender, and school gender mix. For these indicators, the analysis includes all the 12th grade students. The results reveal that girls are more likely to promote to the following grades than are boys, since they have low drop-out and repetition rates. This phenomenon causes the average student age of 12th grade girls to be less than that of boys. Grade 12 emerges as having the highest dropout rate, and grade 5 has the highest repetition rate. The distribution of the total marks of the 12 th grade students displays a long left tail, reflecting the fact that many students have low total marks. School size and class size are identified as having a negative effect upon the total examination mark. As the school size increases, so too do classes, but they are not allowed to become too large. The student age has the greatest significant effect on student performance among all the variables, student gender coming second in this ranking. Students who are young for their academic year are performing better than those who are older for the year, and girls perform better than boys. The research concludes that the basic education system in the Sultanate of Oman is in good health but that room for development and improvement does exist.

Abstract:

This thesis explores the educational needs and range of strategies used for educational provision for gifted children in Malaysia’s Ministry of Education preschool programme. A review of literature relating to international theory and existing research in gifted education and empirical work of teaching gifted children were carried out. The literature review examines the dominant theories of intelligence and giftedness in general. It also includes the historical background of definitions of giftedness as well as methods for its measurement, before specifically focusing on the concept of giftedness at the preschool level. The study was located in the Ministry of Education’s preschool classes within Melaka, Malaysia. Preschools in that area are required to implement the Kurikulum Prasekolah Kebangsaan or National Preschool Curriculum (NPC) of the Malaysian government. The research was conducted in two phases during the school year 2009. The first phase selected 25 gifted children. This phase involved a questionnaire survey that was specially designed for the purpose of this study and was sent to parents and preschool teachers within two districts in Melaka. This was followed by an assessment using Raven’s Coloured Progressive Matrices (CPM) that involved 187 preschool children. For the second phase of the research, the main methods of data collection employed were observations during lessons, semi-structured interviews with children nominated as gifted and their teachers, as well as analysing documentary evidence using children’s drawings. In the first phase of this research, it was discovered that the majority of parents involved in this study agreed that their child had showed gifted characteristics compared to preschool teachers who were found to be more cautious in nominating children as gifted. The findings from Raven’s Coloured Progressive Matrices (CPM) showed that Malaysian preschool children in the sample weren’t much different from their counterparts in other places when reviewed in terms of their test scores. In the second phase of the research, it was found that every gifted child was unique with his or her own different needs that can be categorised into three domains: physical, cognitive and socio-emotional. It was also found that preschool teachers were responding to the policy in pragmatic terms, although no specific training was provided for practising teachers as part of the national training programme in making provision for gifted children. There is paucity of research in aspects of education for gifted children in Malaysia. By specifically addressing this topic, this study makes a distinct contribution to current literature in both understanding aspects of giftedness at a preschool level and the range of provision used. This study makes a particular contribution to finding out what the gifted children’s educational needs are, and how practising preschool teachers in Malaysia are responding to their needs. This should be of interest to both policy makers and practitioners. This thesis also presents recommendations for a new policy and programme in organising and teaching gifted children within regular classrooms. This may be of interest to audiences internationally, including countries where there are no policies of provision for gifted children that came from disadvantaged or low-income family background.

Washington, Gwendolyn A. "Faith Healing Ministry: a Christian education model for clergy and laity." DigitalCommons@Robert W. Woodruff Library, Atlanta University Center, 2008. http://digitalcommons.auctr.edu/dissertations/2646.

Full text

Abstract:

The purpose of this project was to begin an intentional effort to retrieve the ministry of faith healing through using a Christian education model to educate/train clergy and laity. The model was comprised of Sacred Scripture, church tradition, individuals from the Christian community experiences, and conversation voices from theologians, former and contemporaries; including medical scientists. The model was presented in the manual titled, Faith Healing Ministry: A Christian Education Model for Clergy and Laity. The premise is that many church leaders fail to model the ministry of Jesus in liberating folk who are ill within their congregations. Christian education is necessary to retrieve the ministry of faith healing with integrity and accountability because of fear and suspicion due to deception and fraudulent acts. In other words, some in the pastoral and lay leadership are fearful to engage in faith healing because of controversy due to misuse of the gifts and abuse of recipients in that area of ministry. One way to change negative attitudes about the ministry of faith healing is through Christian education. Seminars were conducted over a period of six weeks with a group participation of sixteen clergy and laity who completed questionnaires concerning their knowledge of and involvement in faith healing. The seminar sessions were taught by the researcher and the author of the manual. One theme addressed consistently: Faith healing should be an intentional ministry of the Christian church to bring holistic well-being and soundness to the congregants. The church reformers have influenced theologians and church leaders for centuries taking the theoretical position that the gifts and miracles ceased being used in the church between the first and third century. The researcher demonstrated the influence their theory has had on some Protestant denominations in regards to the lack of faith healing practiced even in our contemporary society. The assumption is, the group that participated in the project are able to understand theoretical positions taken by some and can now take a stance to support their beliefs and values in regards to faith healing. The Sacred Scriptures, some Christian traditions, former and contemporary theologians, as well as physicians and scientists demonstrates evidence of how faith and prayer works in the healing process of physical illness. The model for Christian education and training regarding faith healing will be ongoing and a component will be added to include how to stay healthy.

Yook, Cheong Min. "Korean Teachers' Beliefs about English Language Education and their Impacts upon the Ministry of Education-Initiated Reforms." Digital Archive @ GSU, 2010. http://digitalarchive.gsu.edu/alesl_diss/14.

Full text

Abstract:

This study aims to expand studies on ESL/EFL teachers’ beliefs by investigating the relationship among Korean teachers’ beliefs about English language education in Korea, sources of their beliefs, their perceptions of the Ministry of Education, Science, and Technology (MOE)-initiated reforms in English language education, and the degree of implementation of the reforms in their classroom teaching. Toward that end, the study employed both quantitative and qualitative research instruments: a survey with a questionnaire, interviews, and observations. The study surveyed 158 in-service teachers. Among these 158 teachers, 10 were selected for interviews and observations. Each of the 10 teachers was interviewed three times and his/her classroom teaching observed twice. The findings of the study indicate: a) the beliefs held by the majority of the participants were based on the communication-oriented approaches (COA) to English language teaching, which has been recommended by the MOE in its efforts to reform English language education in Korea; b) major sources of the participants’ beliefs seemed to be their experiences as learners in overseas English programs and domestic in-service teacher education programs with practical curricula; c) the teacher participants’ perceptions of the reforms’ general direction were largely consistent with their COA-based beliefs, but their perceptions of specific reform policies and measures were dictated by their concerns with realities of EFL education and their positions; and d) not the participants’ beliefs but their negative perceptions of reform policies and measures AND the constraints they cited were the main obstacles to the implementation of the reform policies and measures in their classroom teaching. The findings reveal gaps and mismatches among the participants’ beliefs, perceptions, and practices. The study interprets such gaps and mismatches not as inconsistencies but as symptoms of a transitional stage through which English language education in Korea has been going. The study discusses the implications of the findings for Korean EFL teachers, EFL/ESL teacher education programs, and reform agents. The study ends with four suggestions for future research.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to examine factors related to information technology (IT) implementation in the curriculum. The focus was on Malaysian Ministry of Education Polytechnic (MoEP) faculty members' attitudes toward IT, as well as IT availability and IT use in teaching. The response rate from the 332 surveys sent to the MoEP was 75.9%. Faculty members as a whole appeared to have readiness for adoption of changes related to IT use in teaching despite the lack of IT use in general. The use of selected IT items was skewed greatly in the direction of non-use. Faculty attitudes toward the use of IT in their teaching were very positive. The overall professional development experiences in IT that respondents had were greatly skewed toward non-participation. Results for items associated with supports services showed that they were available for faculty use. Sixty-nine percent of the respondents reported to face barriers to the use IT in their teaching. The extent of IT use in general for male respondents and female respondents showed a significant difference among gender. ANOVA revealed no difference between MoEP membership and IT use in general. Analysis of department membership and IT use in general revealed no difference between the two. Highest level of education had a low significant correlation with extent of IT use in general. A low negative correlation was shown between highest level of education and other demographic variables. Age had a moderate positive correlation with years served for the MoEP and a high correlation with years served for the MoE. Years served for the MoEP also has a moderate correlation with years served for the MoE. There were no significant correlations among variables except for online discussion and teaching load. Highest level of education showed a low correlation with email, WWW, and scanner. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to determine what variables were the best predictors of IT use. Results revealed an R2 of 0.04. Highest level of education contributed significantly to the variance. Adoption proneness proved to be a predictor for IT use in teaching, while other selected demographic variables were not significant predictors.

Abstract:

This study involved non-experimental research to identify alumni perceptions of the strengths and weaknesses of the Doctor of Ministry degree program at Dallas Theological Seminary. An international survey was conducted to collect data from 165 Doctor of Ministry degree holders from Dallas Theological Seminary; 131 usable questionnaires were returned. A response rate of 79.4 percent was achieved. The intent of the study was to ascertain (a) the extent to which D.Min. alumni perceive that the objectives and goals of Doctor of Ministry programs at Dallas Theological Seminary are being met, (b) alumni-perceived strengths of Doctor of Ministry programs at Dallas Theological Seminary, (c) alumni-perceived weaknesses of Doctor of Ministry programs at Dallas Theological Seminary, (d) compare the findings of this case study assessment with a 1987 national study of Doctor of Ministry programs, and (e) make recommendations for the improvement of D. Min programs at Dallas Theological Seminary. The pattern that emerged from the data indicates that the D.Min. alumni believe objectives and goals of the Doctor of Ministry program at Dallas Theological Seminary are being met. In the opinion of the alumni, Doctor of Ministry programs at Dallas Theological Seminary has its strengths. The overall opinion of the D.Min. faculty and curriculum are strong indicators of its strength. The D.Min. program has had a positive impact on the lives of its alumni and on their ministries. In the opinion of the alumni, Doctor of Ministry programs at Dallas Theological Seminary also has its weaknesses. A casual comparison of the findings of this case study assessment with a similar 1987 national study of Doctor of Ministry programs revealed more similarities than differences. The alumni provided a number of suggestions to be implemented into the Doctor of Ministry curriculum, structure, faculty, administration, overall image of the program, its purpose and objectives.

Full text

Abstract:

Senior adults face a quandary through the process of aging. While enjoying the benefits of retirement, the senior adult also struggles with issues of health, independence, loneliness, and society’s stereotypes concerning their relevance and usefulness. With the aging of the population and graying of the church membership, the necessity to mobilize and equip senior adults becomes critical in maintaining a healthy church. As senior adults face an ever-changing society filled with technological, organizational, and social transitions, they need assistance in coping with and managing these age-related issues.

The project includes training materials to mobilize and equip the senior adults attending Crowley Assembly for effective ministry within the church and to the local community, thus validating the significance and relevance of senior adults in the local church. The project focuses on four ministry interventions: a four-part sermon series for the congregation, a ministry opportunities seminar for senior adults, an age-related issues management seminar for senior adult leaders, and the development of a senior adult ministries manual. Post-sermon, pre-seminar, and post-seminar surveys identify the understanding of and attitude toward material presented in the respective sermons and seminars. The project promotes a biblical awareness of the importance and value of senior adults in the congregation at Crowley Assembly and encourages acceptance of intergenerational ministries. A closer evaluation reveals the keys to the project’s effectiveness and identifies improvements for future projects.

Full text

Abstract:

As a consequence of the discovery of oil in Kuwait in 1940, Kuwaiti culture has undergone major changes. From the 1950s onwards women actively entered the workplace alongside men and this has had a noticeable impact on women's lives. Despite some progress, however, women's struggle for greater equality continues to be influenced by Kuwaiti social and cultural beliefs. This thesis is the first in-depth qualitative analysis of the barriers facing mothers working in management in Kuwait. Specifically, the complex interrelationship between culture, gender and management is explored. It argues that work-family imbalance in Kuwait is a consequence of social and cultural beliefs concerning the status of women in that society. The study classifies the main cultural and gender-related issues affecting the roles of mothers working in management in Kuwait, with a view to helping such women succeed in their working and family lives. The circumstances facing working women in modern, affluent Kuwait while they attempt to raise large families is analysed by reviewing women's status and issues of cultural inequality in modern Kuwaiti society and how this affects their employment. The study adopted a qualitative research methodology to explore factors affecting women's working lives, female identity in the workplace, and work-family balance and conflict. In the first of its two phases, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 27 mothers in management positions at the Kuwaiti Ministry of Education. A life history approach was then taken with another four women to fully investigate how cultural beliefs impact women's rights over their lives and bodies in Kuwaiti society. The main findings indicate that the participants perceived themselves to be affected by work-life imbalance, based on patriarchal ideals being imposed on gender roles, thus creating conflict and destabilising women's self-perceptions in ways which are quite specific to Kuwait. Most importantly, it was found that women in managerial roles tended to reject certain inherent female qualities in themselves and other women, while simultaneously preserving an outward display of traditional femininity. In other words, there was evidence of an unresolved identity crisis. This thesis concludes that women at higher levels of management find it difficult to juggle work and family life because of cultural identity issues in the Kuwaiti context. This problem is significant, as Kuwaiti women would appear to experience more difficulty in this regard than women in many other parts of the world, where the key issues of work-family imbalance are found to be time management, family-friendly policies and the age and number of children. The Kuwaiti Ministry of Education is particularly problematic for women in management roles and it is important to address the issues of work-family balance in Kuwait structurally and institutionally in relation to the family, in order to support women at work.

Abstract:

A qualitative case study was conducted to determine whether major donors to an institution of higher education that existed to prepare ministers and missionaries were perceived by the institution's leaders as motivated by organizational effectiveness, financial efficiency, or evaluations by donor watchdog agencies. The case study was conducted with the Graduate Institute of Applied Linguistics. The interview process was utilized to gain information individually from the president, a development consultant, an academic dean, and a former development director. Each participant was asked a series of 19 questions during the interview process. The results indicated that the leaders perceived that organizational effectiveness was a philanthropic motivator for major donors and measured it by the accomplishments of those who were trained at the institution. The results also indicated that the ministry preparation institution's leaders perceived financial efficiency to provide philanthropic motivation to major donors, though to a lesser degree than organizational effectiveness, and measured it by stewardship of funds. The results further indicated that the ministry preparation institution's leaders perceived that donor watchdog agency evaluations, specifically those of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability and Guidestar, provided philanthropic motivation for major donors. Additional research recommendations included studying how to report about organizational effectiveness in a manner meeting the needs of major donors and what motivates major donors of other education and nonprofit organizations, organizational effectiveness and/or financial efficiency.
