探寻贫困山区教育现状及支教有效途径——以丽水月山村支教为例

大学生支教已经成为比较常见的大学生公益实践活动。短期支教因时间要求较为灵活,条件要求更为宽松,从而更适于在校学生参与,成为大学生支教活动经常选择的项目。浙江大学城市学院月山支教项目已有四年的发展历程,本文立足已有经验,结合当地教育状况对贫困山区支教有效途径进行了探索。     

关于建立大学生支教长效机制的思考

现在,大学生支教已经成为比较常见的大学生公益实践活动。其中,短期支教因时间要求较为灵活,条件要求更为宽松,从而更适于在校学生参与,成为大学生支教活动经常选择的项目。但是,正是由于支教时间过短,导致了效果不佳和资源浪费等问题。文章将大学生短期支教作为研究对象,探讨大学生短期支教的原因及存在的弊端,在此基础上提出建立大学生支教长效机制的对策,旨在促进大学生支教朝着规范化、科学化、可持续化的方向发展。     

基于大学生支教活动的德育实践研究

德育对大学生成才至关重要,如何利用支教活动提高德育实践的有效性成为研究重点。大学生支教活动对大学生形成道德自律、加深大学生对社会主义核心价值观的认识以及培养大学生社会责任感效果显著。但在支教活动开展过程中出现的安全无保障、时间短且仓促、动机功利化等问题,严重影响支教活动德育实效性。提高大学生支教活动德育实效性,必须从个人层面、高校层面、社会层面加强德育实践,使在支教活动过程中发挥其应有的作用。

大学生假期支教活动现存问题与对策研究

近年来,大学生利用假期进行支教活动已渐成常态。假期支教活动在一定程度上推动了支教地的教育发展,大学生来到贫困地区,缓解了当地学校教师紧缺的问题,带来了较为先进的教学理念与富有特色的教学方法,拓宽了支教地学生的视野,调动了学生学习兴趣。对于参与支教的大学生,假期支教提供了接触社会、认识社会的机会,在“教”的过程中深度挖掘所学知识,提高了知识灵活运用能力、团队合作和社会适应能力,进一步开阔了视野,适应社会中待人处事的方式。但假期支教也存在教学时数短、教学内容系统性、连贯性、针对性不强等问题,支教地和大学生志愿者均存在经济负担增加的情况,运行机制的不完善引发部分志愿者的安全、权益难以得到保障,经验不足还会导致教学“供需”不对称。结合对150名参与支教的大学生志愿者调研情况,阐述大学生假期支教活动存在的问题,探讨完善支教组织和管理机制,从而提高大学生假期支教活动质量,提出完善假期支教的对策建议。

Review on research about Chickering＇s seven factors theory in China

Chickering＇s seven vectors theory developed in America in this category is the most useful for student development in student affairs. There has been no systematic research on Chickering＇s theory in Mainland China, even some existing in Taiwan. However, based on the summary of scattered references, two trends on development for Chinese university students are found for future research： one is that there is some research related to every vector respectively. The other is that a growing trend with rising grades from some aspects connected to some psychosocial vectors is shown on university students. So seven vectors theory is useful for describing development for Chinese university students.

Using Instructional Activities Game to promote mathematics teachers＇ innovative instruction

NIER （National Institute of Educational Research, 2004） survey revealed that the most common attitude of Japanese high school students to mathematics is that ＂it is not useful in daily life but must be learnt for entrance examinations＂. It was also clarified that only 3.2 percent of mathematics teachers use computers in their classes. Therefore, a training system to improve teachers＇ professional competence through the design of lessons which will improve students＇ ability to solve problems in daily life was developed using ICT （Information and Communication Technology） in conjunction with mathematical thinking processes. The lAG （Instructional Activities Game） system developed by Matsuda （2004） was used to provide a platform for the execution of several game boards, which were designed to achieve different objectives for different conditions of teaching. Herein, the design of the STG （Simulate Teaching Game） game board and data sets of teaching materials and menu items for lesson plans are described, together with the means of elaborating the lAG system if new functions are required.     

Examining Samoan language development in Samoan bilingual students＇ understanding of texts in English

This paper examines language development of Samoan students in bilingual contexts in Aotearoa, New Zealand. In the absence of valid and standardized assessments tools in Samoan, one was designed to test reading comprehension and oral language development for Samoan students using common narratives as a base. For reading comprehension, the tool used a listening comprehension format to avoid possible decoding limitations and provided a gradient of difficulty with a surprising drop in both oral and reading comprehension at year 7. This drop was attributed to a change in competencies of some students entering the bilingual classroom at year 7. For example, the mixed levels of both L 1 （Samoan） oral and L1 （Samoan） reading comprehension within and across years of schooling likely reflects the varied provision in the Samoan bilingual classes and the variations across cohorts in different degrees of bilingualism. We argue that this might be due to the make up of the two schools of which one was an Intermediate school of years 7 and 8 students and, the other was a full primary school with students from years 4 to 8. The patterns suggest two general instructional needs in Samoan bilingual classrooms. One is the need to develop metacognitive components and the need for deliberate and explicit instruction to build awareness of strategies and effectiveness. The other is the ubiquitous need identified in reading comprehension instruction generally to develop vocabulary both through oral and written forms. There was a highly significant relationship between L 1 oral at L1 reading comprehension levels reflecting a general relationship found in other studies of monolingual in L2 （English） contexts.     

Universities——Drivers for regional innovation culture and competitiveness

The actual infrastructure of the information society sustains the globalization trend and increases the importance of the information and knowledge. The development of the knowledge society is the direct consequence of the mix of economic, social and cultural processes, which involve the knowledge creation and its equitable distribution, access and sharing. Universities, as poles of knowledge, creativity and innovation, play a key part in the regional development and the global competitiveness. The universities are active promoters of the innovation culture at the regional and international level, by increasing the synergy among education, research and innovation. The article focuses on the role of the academic area in the development of the learning and creative society at the regional level, contributing to the design of new knowledge and technology embedded products, services and organizational processes, which represent the premises of the global competitiveness. The most important challenge the academic environment faces in the new economy is to bridge the gap between the political decision, the governance and the labour market, offering innovative solutions and developing the intellectual capital to address the various issues of the knowledge economy. The article highlights the role of the universities as regional development drivers, by analyzing the economic performance of the Bucharest-llfov region and the direct influence of the trinomial equation： education-research-innovation.     

Learning for the natural environment： The case against anthropocentrism

The world （Africa in particular） is in a progressive state of environmental crisis, caused by global warming, loss of biodiversity, human overpopulation, pollution, massive deforestation and desertification, urbanization and many other environmental problems and risk factors. For several commentators and theorists, part of the solution resides in the provision of pertinent and adequate education, including environmental education. The present paper briefly examines the history of environmental education, internationally and in South Africa, and some of its most prominent current trends and issues, before critiquing its general orientation. Arguing against what appears to lie at the heart of environmental education and literacy, namely anthropocentrism （ideas like ＂education for sustainable development＂）, the paper urges a radical rethinking of its central concerns and modus operandi, in terms of facilitating learning for the natural environment. In other words, in order to live up to its promise of contributing towards life beyond the twenty-first century, such learning must include the realization that nature matters in and for itself.
