Corné Saarloos heeft op 11 december j.l. met succes zijn scriptie voor de Master Onderwijskunde verdedigd. Voor zijn scriptie heeft hij onderzoek gedaan naar de rol van metacognitie bij het leren oplossen van redactiesommen in het basisonderwijs. Hij heeft een mooi veldexperiment opgezet en uitgevoerd. Daarbij heeft hij een specifiek onderwijsprogramma (een script) gemaakt dat is gebaseerd op het CLIA-model van De Corte & Verschaffel. Het CLIA-model omvat aanwijzingen voor vier aspecten van instructie-ontwerp: C=competentie, L=Leren, I=Interventie en A=Assessment. In het onderzoek is aangetoond dat de script een positieve invloed heeft op het oplossen van redactiesommen. Dat is een veelbelovend resultaat. Deze aanpak van het rekenonderwijs kan wellicht worden verbreed om te zien of de effecten dan blijvend zijn. Met dank aan Dr. Martijn van Schaik die optrad als tweede beoordelaar.

Research of Mr. Misbah Zainun (Indonesia, and PhD student at Wageningen University) on Competence and Knowledge is accepted for publication in Learning Environments Research. This is important news because a major criticism on competence-based education has been that it would neglect the role of knowledge. As soon as the article is published I will share the summary and Pfd. The tentative reference is: Misbah, Z., Gulikers, J, Widhiarso, W., and Mulder, M. (accepted). Competence and Knowledge Development in Competence-Based Vocational Education, Learning Environments Research. You  may want to know that earlier work of Mr. Misbah is published in Teaching and Teacher Education. See Misbah, Z., J. Gulikers, R. Maulana and M. Mulder (2015). Teacher interpersonal behaviour and student motivation in competence-based vocational education: Evidence from Indonesia. Teaching and Teacher Education, 50, August, pp. 79-89. You can find the link to that publication in the Publication list in this website. Thanks to Dr. Judith Gulikers for her continuous supervision and precise feedback on drafts of these publications.
