Nathaniel Lees Gage (1917 – August 17, 2008) was an educational psychologist who made significant contributions to a scientific understanding of teaching. He conceived and edited the first ''Handbook of Research on Teaching'' (Gage, 1963), led the Stanford Center for Research and Development of Teaching, and served as president of the American Educational Research Association. Gage was a professor at the Stanford Graduate School of Education, where he moved in 1962 after 14 years at the University of Illinois. Deborah Stipek, dean of the Stanford School of Education, called Gage a "giant among educational researchers." David C. Berliner, Regents' Professor of Education at Arizona State University, called Gage "the father of the field of research on teaching."〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=A Conception of Teaching )〕 ==Education== Gage was born Nathaniel Lees Gewirtz in Union City, N.J. in 1917; his eventual name change is explained below. He attended the City College of New York and the University of Minnesota. At the University of Minnesota, he had a job working for the youthful psychologist B.F. Skinner. His duties included making food pellets for laboratory rats. He graduated magna cum laude in 1938 with a bachelor's degree in psychology, but was rejected by 10 graduate schools before being admitted to Purdue University. According to David Berliner, the many rejections were due to anti-Semitism.〔 A slightly different version of this article appeared in B.J. Zimmerman and D.H. Schuck (Eds.) (2003) ''Educational Psychology: A Century of Contributions'' (pp. 391-407) Mahwah, N.J. USA: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates.〕 Gewirtz then changed his last name to Gage. During World War II, Gage spent two years in the Army, where he developed aptitude tests for choosing navigators and radar observers.〔 Gage earned a Ph.D. in psychology from Purdue University in 1947. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nathaniel Gage」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
