Title: The formative five : fostering grit, empathy and other success skills every student needs.
Author(s): Hoerr, Thomas R. |
Published: Alexandria VA : ASCD : 202017
ISBN: 9781416622697
Abstract: For success in school and life, students need more than proficiency in academic subjects and good scores on tests; those goals should form the floor, not the ceiling, of their education. To truly thrive, students need to develop attributes that aren't typically measured on standardized tests. In this book educators will learn how to foster the "formative Five" success skills that today's students need, including: empathy, or learning to see the world through others' perspectives; self-control, or cultivating the abilities to focus and delay self-gratification; integrity, or recognizing right from wrong and practicing ethical behavior; embracing diversity, or recognizing and appreciating human differences; and grit, or persevering in the face of challenge. When educators engage students in understanding and developing these five skills, they change mindsets and raise expectations for student learning. As an added benefit, they see significant improvements in school and classroom culture. [Back cover]

Title: Transitions in children's everyday lives.
Series: (Everyday learning ; v.14 n.4 2016)
Author(s): Harrison, Linda J. |
Published: Deakin West ACT : Early Childhood Australia : 2016
ISBN: 9781921162978
ISSN: 1448-045X
Abstract: Young children's days are filled with change and transitions that are so commonplace they often go unnoticed. However, all transitions, whether they are from one setting to another, one person to another, or one activity to another, require children to adapt or cope with these changes. And for children, these transitions can be emotionally charged - from exciting and happy to overwhelming and difficult. The book is designed to help parents/carers and educators understand these emotional ups and downs, and support children as they negotiate the transitions of daily life. It explains: what everyday transitions are and how children might experience these events; how adults can support children during transition and change, and the importance of familiar relationships; the many changes in a child's day including timetables and different places and relationships; different responses to transitions and change; and how we as parents/carers and educators can change our thinking towards children and their daily transitions.

Title: Children's independent mobility and dog ownership : 8 to 12 year olds.
Author(s): Underwood, Catherine | Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER)
Published: Melbourne : Australian Council for Educational Research : 2012
Abstract: Many families are now acquiring pets to encourage children, to spend more time in the 'real', rather than the 'virtual' world. The rising prevalence in the number of children who are overweight or obese is increasing in importance as a public health issue in Australia. Walking and physical activity is strongly linked to improved general health and lower risks of obesity and associated health problems. A growing body of research shows that pet ownership has a number of physical health benefits. Studies now associate pets, and particularly dogs with increased levels of physical activity.

Published: Canberra : Standing Council on Tertiary Education Skills & Employment : September 2012
ISBN: 9781922125460 |9781922125477
Abstract: This paper focuses on the National foundation skills strategy for adults, For the purpose of this Strategy, foundation skills are defined as the combination of : English language, literacy and numeracy (LLN) listening, speaking, reading, writing, digital literacy and use of mathematical ideas; and employability skills, such as collaboration, problem solving, self-management, learning and information and communication technology (ICT) skills required for participation in modern workplaces and contemporary life. Foundation skills development includes both skills acquisition and the critical application of these skills in multiple environments for multiple purposes. Foundation skills are fundamental to participation in the workplace, the community and in adult education and training. Australian governments have worked in partnership to develop the National Foundation Skills Strategy for Adults (the National Strategy), in which adults develop and maintain the foundation skills they need to participate confidently in the modern economy and meet the complex demands of modern life.

Author(s): Mills, Jennifer N. | Baguley, John | Coleman, Glen | Meehan, Michael | Australian Learning and Teaching Council (ALTC) | Murdoch University | University of Queensland | University of Sydney
Published: Strawberry Hills NSW : Australian Learning and Teaching Council (ALTC) : 2009
Abstract: New veterinary graduates identify 'communication skills' as lacking in their education, but also recognise them as crucial to overall success in veterinary professional life. As interpersonal communication is closely linked to an individual's sense of identity and levels of confidence, an approach taken to improve it requires an understanding of emotional intelligence. This is a report from a collaborative study that sought to inform the emerging veterinary communication curriculum through developing clinical consultations using simulated client scenarios; addressing the human-animal bond; assessing the needs of clients, students and their attitudes to animals; and developing strategies to enhance and report competencies in professional life skills (using e-portfolio). The study found that experiential tasks help first year students identify the importance of communication for success in veterinary life. Client simulations were effectively scaffolded into the curriculum at various levels compatible with students' level of medical knowledge. The study demonstrated a successful method to incorporate training for students to recognise, acknowledge and support the human- animal bond in client consultations. A specific training module was developed and is available on the Bayer Animal Health website.

Abstract: Pathway Planning is a key component of the Tasmanian Government's Guaranteeing Futures program. The program aims to improve educational outcomes for young Tasmanians and the broader community. Pathway Planning is progressively being rolled out over a three-year cycle which commenced in 2005 with Year 8 students. In 2006 the University of Tasmania was commissioned by the Department of Education to conduct a review of the early implementation of the Pathway Planning program from 2005 through to mid-2006. This report presents the findings of this research and identifies some positive strategies for enhancing the effectiveness of the program. The aim of the review was to: review the range of approaches implemented during the first 18 months of operation of the Pathway Planning initiative; research ways of continually improving the Pathway Planning model; identify the most effective of these to inform the future development and evaluation of the project in subsequent years.

Abstract: The Adult Literacy and Life Skills survey (ALLS) is designed to identify and measure literacy, numeracy and problem-solving skills, which can be linked to social and economic characteristics both across and within countries. An additional literacy measure, health literacy, is also available to countries who request it, as Australia has done for this survey. The key objectives of the survey are to profile the distribution of prose literacy, document literacy, numeracy, analytic reasoning and health literacy in the adult population (15 to 74 years of age), and to identify sub populations whose performance in these skill domains may place them at risk.

Abstract: School teachers know one thing to be true: that cooperative children do better at school and in life. Such children learn how to make friends, manage their emotions and solve problems with others. In 'Getting on with Others', the author identifies three skills as being essential building blocks for children: developing cooperative behaviour, acquiring basic social skills and solving social problems. He shows how parents can teach these skills and help children learn about feelings. In addition, he presents methods to assist children to develop assertiveness, reduce anxiety and handle situations involving conflict. The techniques described are clinically proven and research shows they are effective in changing children's behaviour. [Publisher's website]

Title: Windows of opportunity : creating pathways to education and employment : an evaluation of the Young Women who are Parents Program.
Author(s): Flannery, K. | Irwin, J. | Benevolent Society of New South Wales
Published: Paddington NSW : The Benevolent Society : 2004
ISBN: 097514782X
Abstract: This report documents the evaluation of The Benevolent Society’s Young Women Who Are Parents Program, in particular the Opportunities and Choices Training Program for YWWAP. The evaluation intends to add to the developing body of knowledge about young women who are parents and their children, and the pathways these young women sometimes take to education and employment. In particular it will explore the outcomes of participation in a community-based program focussing on opportunities and choices for further education, training and employment. The aims of the evaluation are to: 1. Examine how the young women’s participation in the Opportunity and Choices Training Program for YWWAP has impacted on their lives and the lives of their children. 2. Explore the pathways young women take into the program. 3. Identify the ways in which the program has influenced the young women’s intentions and capacity to participate in further education or employment. [p.5]

Title: Managing life, learning and work in the 21st century : issues informing the design of an Australian blueprint for career development.
Author(s): McMahon, M. | Patton, W. | Tatham, P. |
Published: Subiaco WA : Miles Morgan Australia Ltd : 2003
Abstract: Changes in the nature and availability of work and the corresponding demands on workers to engage in repeated occupational and learning transitions throughout life have heralded a rise in the importance of and necessity for the provision of career services across the lifespan. Intense interest in preparing workers for the future has brought sharply into focus the differences between the skills and competencies needed by the workers of the industrial era and the workers of the future. While technical and job-specific skills have sufficed in the past, it is increasingly being accepted that the worker of the future will need a more comprehensive set of competencies, 'meta-competencies' such as learning skills, life management skills, and communication skills that are not occupation specific and are transferable across all facets of life and work.

Title: Defining and selecting key competencies.
Author(s): Salganik, Laura Hersh (ed) | Rychen, Dominique Simone (ed) |
Published: Toronto : Hogrefe & Huber : 2001
ISBN: 0889372489
Abstract: What skills and competencies are needed for individuals to lead a successful and responsible life, both in the workplace and in other social environments, and for society to face the challenges of the present and future? What are the foundations (normative, theoretical, and conceptual) for defining and selecting a limited set of key competencies? These are among the important questions, of considerable relevance for fields such as education and training, employment, social affairs and welfare, health, and justice, that provided the starting point for an international and interdisciplinary endeavour carried out by the Swiss Federal Statistical Office and the National Center for Education Statistics, US Department of Education under the auspices of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). The current volume, which has resulted from this work, compiles essays from renowned scholars who explore these questions from multiple perspectives (anthropology, economics, history, philosophy, psychology, and sociology), along with commentaries from leading representatives of policy and practice who provide an important complement to the reflection on key competencies. This volume thus presents a multifaceted sketch of issues related to defining and selecting key competencies in an open, still ongoing debate at national and international levels.
