摘要

本研究旨在改进美国一所大型公立大学重新设计教师准备课程的实施工作。这项复杂的重新设计影响到 27 个项目的 150 多门课程,每年涉及 200 多名教师和 2500 名学生。重新设计的实施对支持所有参与教师(包括许多兼职教师和新聘教师)的忠实性和代理权提出了重大挑战。我们的目标是通过提高教师对实施忠实性实践的认识、信心和对其有用性的感知,来改进实施工作。为此,我们制定了两项干预措施:一系列个性化课程概况介绍和一个在线指导模块。为了研究这些干预措施的效果,我们采用了聚合混合方法。结果表明,使用了新课程概况介绍的教师对实施忠实性实践的了解和信心有了显著提高,他们的教学代理意识也有了显著增强。研究结果还显示,使用概况介绍的教师比参加指导模块的教师取得了更积极的成果。这项研究对高等教育机构的教师和管理人员具有重要意义,证明了课程概况介绍作为一种创新的、可扩展的解决方案,在改善大规模重新设计的实施方面所具有的潜力。

Improving Implementation of a Large-Scale Curriculum Redesign: An Innovative Approach to Balancing Fidelity and Agency

Improving Implementation of a Large-Scale Curriculum Redesign: An Innovative Approach to Balancing Fidelity and Agency

This study aimed to improve the implementation of a redesign of teacher preparation programs at a large public university in the United States. This complex redesign impacted over 150 courses across 27 programs, involving over 200 faculty and 2,500 students annually. Implementing the redesign posed significant challenges for supporting fidelity and agency across all faculty involved, including many part-time faculty and new hires. We aimed to improve implementation by improving the faculty’s knowledge, confidence, and perceived usefulness of implementation fidelity practices. To do so, we developed two interventions: a series of individualized course fact sheets and an online orientation module. To study the effects of these interventions, we used a convergent mixed methods approach. Results showed that those faculty who used the new course fact sheets had significant increases in their knowledge and confidence of implementation fidelity practices and significant increases in their sense of teaching agency. The results also showed more positive outcomes for those using the fact sheets than those who participated in an orientation module. This study has important implications for faculty and administrators in higher education, demonstrating the potential of course fact sheets as an innovative, scalable solution to improve the implementation of large-scale redesigns.

期刊介绍: Innovative Higher Education is a refereed scholarly journal that strives to package fresh ideas in higher education in a straightforward and readable fashion. The four main purposes of Innovative Higher Education are: (1) to present descriptions and evaluations of current innovations and provocative new ideas with relevance for action beyond the immediate context in higher education; (2) to focus on the effect of such innovations on teaching and students; (3) to be open to diverse forms of scholarship and research methods by maintaining flexibility in the selection of topics deemed appropriate for the journal; and (4) to strike a balance between practice and theory by presenting manuscripts in a readable and scholarly manner to both faculty and administrators in the academic community.
