基于数据仓库的高校学生管理预警与支持系统

数据挖掘技术目前在商业、金融业等方面都得到广泛应用,而在教育领域应用较少.高校学生管理预警与支持系统是客观地分析在校学生的应用软件,它设计的基础是大量的学生信息数据.数据仓库技术可以将这些明细信息汇总统计以供分析辅助决策使用,使预警工作建立在可靠的事实数据的技术上.通过详细阐述高校学生管理预警与支持系统数据仓库的数据建模,为数据挖掘技术应用于教育管理领域提供了一个方向.     

FRANCE: FORECAST OF STUDENT NUMBERS UP UNTIL 1985

SOCIAL DETERMINANTS AND POTENTIALS OF EDUCATION IN LATER LIFE: THE CASE OF AUSTRIA

Various theoretical concepts such as plasticity, competence, and potential have recently been applied to underline the possibility of later‐life development and change. Value and limitations of these concepts are discussed in view of learning in later life. A review of the special case of Austria and the educational attainments of its elderly indicates that social reality is slow in its transformation and that the disadvantageous educational achievements credited to today's older people hardly encourage them in pursuing later‐life studies. The paper reports results obtained by means of two questionnaires filled out by older students and teachers. This empirical investigation examines the influence of societal norms, social setting in institution‐related learning situations (age‐homogeneity vs. age‐heterogeneity), and instructors’ attitudes toward older students. The results demonstrate that permanent education and proper stimulation of the learning processes depend on a complex relationship between (competent) individuals, their social surroundings, and learning conditions that often prove unfavorable.     

对高等院校学生党员教育的思考

大学生是国家宝贵的人才资源,要正视大学生党员教育的现状。大学生党员在发挥先锋模范作用方面具有得天独厚的条件,他们大多是理论学习的标兵和积极工作的表率,但也存在一些问题,包括理想信念淡漠、理论学习脱离实际、进取精神不强。如果注重加强组织队伍建设,学习注重理论联系实际,健全制度、加强群众监督,引入党员导师制,大学生党员教育的效果会有效提高。     

高校学生组织建设的几点思考

高校学生组织在培养学生诸多社会能力方面具有重要作用.学生组织的建设实际上就是人力资源管理的问题.学生组织容易出现三方面问题,即独立创新意识差、工作与学习失衡、服务意识不强.对此,本文根据管理心理学原理,从人力资源管理的角度,提出高校学生组织建设的四大原则（机制）,即引导机制、激励机制、约束机制、竞争机制.

BLIND MARKING AND SEX BIAS IN STUDENT ASSESSMENT

Three studies are reported which investigated the existence of sex bias in the marking of undergraduate degrees. Study 1 failed to find any evidence that females were marked less extremely than males by second markers, as has been found in previous research. Study 2 found that marker disagreements were not resolved upwards more frequently for male candidates, again contradicting the results of some previous research. Study 3 failed to find any of the expected differences between an institution using blind marking and one using non‐blind procedures. In the light of this negative evidence and of the confusing picture presented by. previous research, it is concluded that there is little firm evidence for sex bias in marking. Despite this, it is likely that there will be increasing pressure to adopt blind marking in the future.     

MULTILEVEL ANALYSIS OF THE EFFECTS OF STUDENT AND INSTRUCTOR/COURSE CHARACTERISTICS ON STUDENT RATINGS

Multilevel SEM was used to examine the extent to which student, instructor, and course characteristics affect student ratings. Data were gathered from 1867 students enrolled in 117 courses at a large teacher training college in Israel. Four alternative two-level models that differ in only the nature of the relationship among interest in the course subject, expected grade, and student ratings were tested. Two of the models were judged as less appropriate, one because it failed to support the spurious relationship assumed between expected grade and student ratings, and the other on grounds of poor model-data fit. The other two models were equally good both in terms of the model-data fit and the amount of variance in student ratings that is accounted for by each of them. Both models supported the mediation effect of expected grade in the relationship between interest in the course subject and student ratings.     

PERCEPTIONS OF ACTIVITY AND PARTICIPATION IN THE COLLEGE STUDENT ROLE BY OLDER PEOPLE

A group of senior auditors was compared with a sample of older people to determine if there was an association between perceived levels of activity and participation in higher education. Significant relationships were observed for perceived levels of physical and mental activity but not social activity. Senior auditors thought their levels of mental and physical activity were higher than their nonstudent counterparts.     

STUDENT EVALUATION OF TEACHING IN AN AUSTRALIAN UNIVERSITY ‐‐ STAFF PERCEPTIONS AND REACTIONS

At the University of Queensland staff have had the opportunity since 1982 to make use of a standardised questionnaire to students to get feedback on their teaching. The questionnaire was developed and is organised in such a way that it may be used in promotion applications, as evidence of teaching ability in the annual appraisal of probationary staff by the head of department, and for personal feedback. After one year of operation interviews were held with all those who had used the questionnaire. Their attitude to evaluation of teaching was overwhelmingly positive and differed sharply from the way they perceived their department's and the University's attitude to be. Staff, on the whole, acted on the feedback received from their students by changing the course organisation and content, aspects of classroom teaching or their attitude. Many felt more confident about their teaching as a result of the evaluation, and for many the questionnaires were the only source of feedback and encouragement.     

PROSPECTS FOR STUDENT EXCHANGE AND STUDIES ABROAD IN THE COUNTRIES OF WESTERN EUROPE

Higher education has undergone important changes throughout the period of the last decade or more. These changes have significantly altered patterns with respect to student exchanges and studies abroad. Prospects for student exchange in Western Europe are analyzed below in an abridged version of an article written by Dr. Barbara B. Burn, Director of International Programmes at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. She is also Executive Director of the US President's Commission on Foreign Language and International Studies.
