Book Description
Excerpt from Some Empirical Tests in Vocational Selection, Vol. 49 A. Tests for typists. Lahy (32), reports an experiment made with eleven typists as subjects; six women who had had from two to four years practice, and five men who had had from two to eight years practice, in typing. Measures of the following functions or processes were obtained; muscular sensibility of the two hands, speed of auditory reactions, memory for numbers and sentences, attention, and several higher processes such as imagination, abstraction, judgment and reasoning. In comparing the three good and the three mediocre women subjects it was found that the former posessed a finer threshold of tactile and muscular discrimination, a tendency of the hands to become equally strong, a better memory, fewer errors of attention, but showed longer auditory reaction times. In comparing the men subjects the same distinctions were found. This is an interesting and valuable contribution in that it stimulates work along these lines and blazes the trail, but it has not been worked out extensively enough to be practically applicable. Lough (35) reports graphical curves showing the relation between the time required to perform a letter substitution test, "habit formation test," measured after repeated trials with the test, and ability in stenography and typewriting for a group of high school students. The curves show a good degree of correspondence between performances in the test and judgments of ability in stenography and typewriting. To quote Lought "It is evident that if we give these pupils a test in habit formation first, we can determine what pupils are capable of doing good work in typewriting, and we can save some of the pupils a great amount of wear and tear, by simply allowing them to take some other work in place of typewriting. They are not adapted to the motor responses which typewriting calls for. By means of this experiment it would be possible to select those who are likely to succeed in typewriting and to give a vocation to those who would not succeed." If this test could accomplish all that Lough claims for it it would indeed be a boon to the human race but unfortunately, the necessary scientific data concerning the experiment are not given.

The Adult Learner
Author: Malcolm S. KnowlesPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000072894
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 407
Book Description
How do you tailor education to the learning needs of adults? Do they learn differently from children? How does their life experience inform their learning processes? These were the questions at the heart of Malcolm Knowles’ pioneering theory of andragogy which transformed education theory in the 1970s. The resulting principles of a self-directed, experiential, problem-centred approach to learning have been hugely influential and are still the basis of the learning practices we use today. Understanding these principles is the cornerstone of increasing motivation and enabling adult learners to achieve. The 9th edition of The Adult Learner has been revised to include: Updates to the book to reflect the very latest advancements in the field. The addition of two new chapters on diversity and inclusion in adult learning, and andragogy and the online adult learner. An updated supporting website. This website for the 9th edition of The Adult Learner will provide basic instructor aids including a PowerPoint presentation for each chapter. Revisions throughout to make it more readable and relevant to your practices. If you are a researcher, practitioner, or student in education, an adult learning practitioner, training manager, or involved in human resource development, this is the definitive book in adult learning you should not be without.

Book Description
Synthesizes the empirical literature on organizationalstructuring to answer the question of how organizations structure themselves --how they resolve needed coordination and division of labor. Organizationalstructuring is defined as the sum total of the ways in which an organizationdivides and coordinates its labor into distinct tasks. Further analysis of theresearch literature is neededin order to builda conceptualframework that will fill in the significant gap left by not connecting adescription of structure to its context: how an organization actuallyfunctions. The results of the synthesis are five basic configurations (the SimpleStructure, the Machine Bureaucracy, the Professional Bureaucracy, theDivisionalized Form, and the Adhocracy) that serve as the fundamental elementsof structure in an organization. Five basic parts of the contemporaryorganization (the operating core, the strategic apex, the middle line, thetechnostructure, and the support staff), and five theories of how it functions(i.e., as a system characterized by formal authority, regulated flows, informalcommunication, work constellations, and ad hoc decision processes) aretheorized. Organizations function in complex and varying ways, due to differing flows -including flows of authority, work material, information, and decisionprocesses. These flows depend on the age, size, and environment of theorganization; additionally, technology plays a key role because of itsimportance in structuring the operating core. Finally, design parameters aredescribed - based on the above five basic parts and five theories - that areused as a means of coordination and division of labor in designingorganizational structures, in order to establish stable patterns of behavior.(CJC).
