Giving Birth: “We Just Don’t Talk About It”

In this column, Alyson Grauer, a young woman recently embarking on her postuniversity career, shares her experiences with friends who do not talk about childbirth. She contrasts their fear and their unwillingness to talk and learn about birth with her own experience being the daughter of a Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator and doula. Grauer’s experiences provide a backdrop for a deeper understanding of young adults’ beliefs about childbirth. Judith Lothian provides insight related to when and why women and men stopped talking about birth and the implications for childbirth education.

Don’t overlook the obvious

这个故事有许多个版本,但都说明了一个真相:小心那些转移注意力的东西;不要忽略最明显的东西。有个男人在一家工厂工作了20年,每天晚上当他离开工厂的时候,他都会推着一辆满载稻草的小推车来到大门口的警卫处。警卫总是把稻草翻个底朝天,什么也找不出来,只好放行。一直到了这个男人退休的那一天,他仍然和往常一样来到警卫处,只是这次没有推小推车。他们已经做了好多年的朋友,警卫问他说,"查理,我看见你每天晚上从这里出去,有二十年了,我知道你一直在偷东西,现在你也退休了,告诉

Don’t let me forget the teacher I wanted to become

This article reports findings from a study of 14 beginning teachers in their first year of teaching in primary schools. By the end of the first year, half were reconsidering their long-term commitment to teaching. The study found they were considering leaving because they were struggling to be the teachers they had envisaged being. One reason for this was the lack of alignment between the supports offered to them, and their own visions of good teaching. The consequences of misaligned supports for beginning teachers are discussed, along with suggestions for the ways in which mentoring and induction programs can better support beginning teachers to be the teachers they wish to be.     

Where on earth am I? Don’t worry, GPS satellites will guide you

With the help of a couple of satellites going around the earth we can find our position on the earth with very high accuracy by measuring ranges from these satellites. The satellite based navigation system is called the GPS (global positioning system). In the first part¹ we described the basic principle of the operation of GPS. This part is about the mechanism and uses of GPS.     

“I Don’t See Color”: Challenging Assumptions about Discussing Race with Young Children

Early childhood classrooms in the US continue to become increasingly diverse as we journey through the twenty first century. Yet and still, many early childhood educators have been slow to respond to these shifts in diversity on the basis of both developmental and political concerns. In this guess editorial, I argue for the integration of anti-racist education in the early childhood social studies classroom. The reasons I discuss here concern: when and how children develop racial attitudes, the difficulty of altering long-standing stereotypes, student empowerment, critical teacher reflection, and issues of standardization. I conclude with several considerations teachers should heed as they engage in this form of education.     

Where on earth am I? Don’t worry, GPS satellites will guide you

Since ancient times navigators have been taking the help of celestial objects to find angles between the horizontal and the lines of sight to the celestial objects, in order to determine their position on the earth. Now, they would take the help of couple of manmade objects whizzing around the earth to find their position with very high accuracy, by measuring ranges from these objects. These objects are satellites and this article gives a brief introduction to a satellite based navigation system, called the GPS (Global Positioning System) in two parts. The first part introduces the basic principle of operation of GPS.     

Don’t Forget Your Own Motherland

If I have a chance to study in America I'll come back to work for my motherland when I have finished my subjects. My country is not so developed and rich as the U.S., but I love her very much.Some people say "America is Heaven on earth. Laving in America is better than living in China." Frankly speaking, I agree with what they say in some sense. However, as we know, China is a developing country, which needs a large number of people of talent to build it. I'm determined to become one of these talented people. I'm sure China will get richer and richer and, sooner or
