  • Do Algorithms Homogenize Students' Achievements in Secondary School Better Than Teachers' Tracking Decisions?
    education policy analysis archives A peer-reviewed, independent, open access, multilingual journal epaa aape Arizona State University Volume 23 Number 62 July 5th, 2015 ISSN 1068-2341 Do Algorithms Homogenize Students’ Achievements in Secondary School Better Than Teachers’ Tracking Decisions? Florian Klapproth University of Luxembourg Luxembourg Citation: Klapproth, F. (2015). Do algorithms homogenize students’ achievements in secondary school better than teachers’ tracking decisions? Education Policy Analysis Archives, 23(62). http://dx.doi.org/10.14507/epaa.v23.2007 Abstract: Two objectives guided this research. First, this study examined how well teachers’ tracking decisions contribute to the homogenization of their students’ achievements. Second, the study explored whether teachers’ tracking decisions would be outperformed in homogenizing the students’ achievements by statistical models of tracking decisions. These models were akin to teachers’ decisions in that they were based on the same information teachers are supposed to use when making tracking decisions. It was found that the assignments of students to the different tracks made either by teachers or by the models allowed for the homogenization of the students’ achievements for both test scores and school marks. Moreover, the models’ simulations of tracking decisions were more effective in the homogenization of achievement than were the tracking decisions, if the students assigned to the different tracks were at the center of the achievement distribution. For the remaining students, there was no significant difference found between teachers’ tracking decisions and the models’ simulations thereof. The reason why algorithms produced more homogeneous groups was assumed to be due to the higher consistency of model decisions compared to teacher decisions.

  • Harvey Goldstein
    HARVEY GOLDSTEIN Harvey Goldstein 30 October 1939 – 9 April 2020 elected Fellow of the British Academy 1996 by JOHN GRAY Fellow of the Academy IAN DIAMOND Fellow of the Academy FIONA STEELE Fellow of the Academy Harvey Goldstein died in April 2020 aged 80, an early victim of the Coronavirus pandemic. During the course of his career he made getting on for 400 published contributions to the development of statistical methods and to the substantive analysis of various educational, social and medical issues. He is particularly noted for his pioneering contributions to the development and dissemination of multilevel modelling and for his sustained critiques of so-called league tables of institutional performance. Biographical Memoirs of Fellows of the British Academy, XIX, 357–376 Posted 2 October 2020. © British Academy 2020. HARVEY GOLDSTEIN Professional life and contributions In 1977 the London Institute of Education (IoE) advertised a Chair of Statistical Methods and appointed Harvey Goldstein to it. At first glance this was a routine appointment—several professorial positions were being created across the Institute and a new head of department was needed for the Department of Measurement, Analysis and Computing. However, it was an unusual appointment in at least two respects. First, Harvey had been a lecturer at the London Institute of Child Health and, whilst he had already published quite extensively, relatively little of his output had had much to say about educational matters. And second, Educational Research was still in the process of establishing itself as an area of enquiry with its own distinc- tive approaches. Some of the major US graduate schools of education had a dedicated chair in statistics but there had never previously been such a chair in the UK.

  • A Contextual Analysis of Differential Association, Social Control, and Strain Theories of Delinquency*
    Theories of Delinquency / 753 A Contextual Analysis of Differential Association, Social Control, and Strain Theories of Delinquency* JOHN P. H OFFMANN, Brigham Young University Abstract The history of criminological thought has seen several theories that attempt to link community conditions and individual-level processes. However, a comparative analysis of contextual effects has not been undertaken. This article estimates a multilevel model that examines the effects of variables derived from three delinquency theories. The results indicate that youths residing in areas of high male joblessness who experience stressful life events or little parental supervision are especially likely to be involved in delinquent behavior. The attenuating impact of school involvement on delinquency is more pronounced in urban environments low in male joblessness. These results suggest that examining the contextual implications of delinquency theories is important, but theories need to be developed with more attention to specific contextual processes. The search for macro-micro linkages and how they affect deviant and crimi- nal behavior has a substantial and notable history (Coleman 1990; Durkheim 1951 [1897]; Stark 1987). The history of criminological thought has seen Shaw and McKay’s seminal work on how social disorganization affects behavior at the individual level, especially with reference to the qualitative life histories * Support for this research was provided by National Institute on Drug Abuse grant 11293. An earlier version of this article was presented at the 2000 annual meeting of the American Society of Criminology, San Francisco, Calif. I thank Bob Bursik, Frank Cullen, Bob Agnew, David Greenberg, and an anonymous Social Forces reviewer for helpful suggestions on earlier drafts.

  • Evaluating Educational Changes: a Statistical Perspective
    Evaluating educational changes: a statistical perspective Harvey Goldstein* Abstract The paper explores some of the issues involved in evaluating educational policy initiatives. It gives examples of how research findings can be evaluated and draws lessons for the ways in which policymakers can interact usefully with researchers. It argues that while central government’s use of research evidence is often highly selective and concerned with its own perceived short term interests, a broader view of the research process is more productive and beneficial. The issues of class size, school league tables and the effects of homework are studied in detail and the often provisional nature of research evidence is emphasised as well as the uncertainty surrounding the findings of individual studies. Keywords: Educational research. Educational policy. Class size research. League tables. Homework. Avaliando mudanças educacionais: uma perspectiva estatística Resumo O artigo explora questões que aparecem ao se avaliar iniciativas de políticas educacionais. O artigo dá exemplos de como resultados de pesquisas devem ser avaliados e tira lições de como formuladores de políticas podem interagir efetivamente com pesquisadores. O artigo argumenta que enquanto o uso que o governo faz da evidência da pesquisa é frequentemente seletivo e preocupado com seus interesses de curto prazo, uma visão mais geral do processo de pesquisa é mais produtivo e benéfico. As questões do tamanho da turma, ranqueamento de escolas e os efeitos do dever de casa são estudadas em detalhe e a natureza frequentemente provisória da evidência da pesquisa é enfatizada assim como a incerteza em volta dos resultados de estudos individuais. Palavras-chave: Pesquisa educacional.

  • Harvey Goldstein Memoria
    Radical Statistics 2020 Editorial to Section: Memories of Harvey Goldstein (30 October 1939 – 9 April 2020) "In dark times there will be singing" Brecht We statisticians may be hardened by continuous examination of death statistics. We may sneer uneasily at the statement questionably attributed to Stalin: “One death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic”. But tragedy hits hard and we are impacted as much as others when one who dies is one of us, especially when it is a person so dear as Harvey Goldstein. Harvey always wore his eminence lightly: soft, quizzical, humourous. This shines out in a gem of an interview (Goldstein 2017). He was with Radical Statistics before our first meeting on 30 January 1975. The inaugural issue of Radical Statistics Journal (then called ‘Newsletter’) included his call (Goldstein 1975) to establish a Radstats study-group on educational research. Harvey was also with us at our most recent meeting on 29th February 2020, cogent and stimulating as usual, and with no sign of slowing down. His wisdom is already greatly missed in the statistical discussions around the disease that sadly floored him. Goldstein, Harvey. 2017.
