Learning English in China
This study examined the relationship of university students’ English proficiency to the age at which they started learning English in mainland China. With the data collected from 4530 students in 50 universities in 24 different provinces or municipalities, we employed a multiple regression model to investigate (a) whether the tested English score in the national entrance exam was predicted by the age at which the students started learning English…
A longitudinal randomized trial of a sustained content literacy intervention from first to second grade
We developed a sustained content literacy intervention that emphasized building domain and topic knowledge from Grade 1 to Grade 2 and evaluated transfer effects on students’ reading comprehension outcomes. The Model of Reading Engagement (MORE) intervention emphasizes thematic lessons that provide an intellectual framework for helping students connect new learning to a general schema (i.e., how scientists study past events). A total of 30 elemen…
Social perspective taking
When teachers struggle to understand students' thoughts, feelings, and motivations, the teacher-student relationship typically suffers.Better social perspective taking-understanding the thoughts, feelings, and motivations of others-should facilitate these relationships.In this preregistered field experiment, teachers (N=105) from a K-9 charter school network participated in a new social perspective taking induction aimed at helping them better un…
Paul Newman, A history of the Hausa language
As the title tells us, the present book offers a history of the Hausa language. The author wishes to “offer fresh and insightful observations, interpretations and hypotheses, ideally in a readable and accessible fashion” (p. ix), and has largely achieved what he set out to do. This is an important book for all who have an interest in the Hausa language and in related Chadic languages as well as for historical linguists. Following the List of Tabl…
Gender Equality, Human Development, and Pisa Results over Time
Gender equality through the empowerment, representation, and provision of equal opportunities for all, regardless of gender, is increasingly recognised as a driver of social outcomes and a fundamental human right. This study explores the longitudinal (2006–2018) relationship between gender equality, human development, and education results as measured by PISA. Gender equality and human development are consistently correlated with PISA scores at e…
Transitive L-verbs (grade 2) and transitive H-verbs (grades 1, 4, 5, and 6) in Hausa verbal compounds
This paper examines Hausa verbal compounds in terms of the division of regular verbs (verbs in the “grade system”) into verbs which have a High or Low tone first syllable. The focus of the paper is the surprisingly small number of transitive L-verbs (verbs beginning with a Low tone – “grade 2”) and their limited use of compound markers which contrasts strongly with the frequency of transitive H-verbs (verbs beginning with a with High tone) and th…
Assessing Parent Perceptions of School Fit
Students whose school environment fits their developmental needs also typically experience academic success and increased motivation. Most investigations of school fit, which focus on teachers’ and students’ perceptions, have found a general decline in fit across the transition from elementary to middle school. However, little research has examined the school-child fit from the parent perspective. In this article, we first detail the development …
Mobility in the Hausa language
This article looks at how mobility is expressed in the Hausa language. The Hausa are a sedentary people in West Africa but mobility nonetheless still has an important place in their culture. The article begins with a description of figurative terms, whereby it is argued that such terms show how a sedentary culture regards various kinds of mobility. Following this, two regular forms of the Hausa verb are described that indicate direction to or fro…
