this is an excellent meta-analysis of surgeon perceptions vs. actual predictive data on the survival rate and some variables that were not considered in the past.
PLUS, this would be a great article to explain how to do excellent meta-analysis research in education.
This would be a great example of the types of research that teachers can do to improve practice. The authors have explained various types of research better than most texts.
Science accounts for more of the texts surviving from antiquity than any other sort of writing, and yet is rarely studied or even read because the texts are relatively hard to find in translation.\n\nMr. Keyser, with Georgia L. Irby-Massie, wrote the science source book: Greek Science of the Hellenistic Era: A Sourcebook w/ updated translations
This would be a valuable library resource for education majors; an especially valuable personal resource for science/math/history teachers interested in the real story of the sophisticated level of knowledge in "ancient" times".
Recent research in neuroscience shows that each brain processes information differently. The way we learn is as individual as DNA or fingerprints. In its research, CAST has identified three primary brain networks and the roles they play in learning.
Learning disabilities such as dyslexia
English language barriers
Emotional or behavioral problems
Lack of interest or engagement
Sensory and physical disabilities
What is Universal Design for Learning?
In today's schools, the mix of students is more diverse than ever. Educators are challenged to teach all kinds of learners to high standards, yet a single classroom may include students who struggle to learn for any number of reasons, such as the following:
* Learning disabilities such as dyslexia
* English language barriers
* Emotional or behavioral problems
* Lack of interest or engagement
* Sensory and physical disabilities
