艾伦·泰特研究

艾伦·泰特在英国开放大学服务了将近30年,他对远程学生学习支持服务领域有着深刻的理解和独到的见解,其理论和实践的研究无疑对我国远程教育学生学习支持服务有着积极的影响。本文在介绍泰特实践的基础上,论述了他关于学生支持、学习支持服务系统以及学习中心的主要理论建树,讨论了由此引发的如何促进我国远程教育学生学习支持服务系统的建设。     

On Some Results of Alan Baker

Alan Baker, who died on the 4th of February of this year, was born in England on the 19th of August 1939. In 1965 he defended his doctoral dissertation titled ‘Some Aspects of Diophantine Approximation’ at Trinity College Cambridge under the guidance of Harold Davenport. It is a very unusual fact that eight of his papers, including [1], which is discussed in the next section, had appeared in print before he submitted his doctoral dissertation. Baker was awarded the Fields Medal in 1970 at the International Congress of Mathematicians at Nice. Other honors he received are detailed in the Article-in-a-Box in this issue.In the present text, we will discuss his paper [1] and the ‘Baker theory of linear forms in logarithms’, which started with the series of four papers [2, 3, 4, 5] published in the British journal Mathematika. This new theory was an impressive breakthrough in the field of Diophantine approximation and we will briefly present some of its applications. For precise references to original papers, including those mentioned in the next sections, the reader is directed to the monographs [6, 7, 8, 9].

艾伦·杜宁的消费主义价值观反思

消费主义实质是对物质的挥霍浪费和践踏,是不珍惜物品和资源,对人类自身和生存环境以及子孙后代不负责任;消费者社会不可能兑现它通过物质舒适而达到满足的诺言,因为人类的欲望是不可能被满足的。因此,在这生态环境资源受到破坏、生存危机重重的时代,呼唤对消费主义的超越和人类的自我觉醒,已势在必行。     

对陈幼坚平面设计理念的思考

我们所处的是一个高度现代化、信息化的社会,新思想、新观念以及国外的各种艺术思潮的涌入对中国的传统文化带来了巨大的冲击。在平面设计领域,平面设计师必然对这一问题进行思考与回应,而陈幼坚也进行了自己的努力和探索。传统文化是人类历史和文化长期发展过程中的积淀,但对传统图形的研究和探讨并不是为了重复过去,而是为了更好地服务现在和未来,西方文化同样有自己的优秀之处,我们也不能盲目排外。在陈幼坚的设计作品中,他在弘扬传统文化的基础上同时借鉴西方文化,更好地以现代设计理念和表现手法丰富了设计的表现手段,使现代设计拥有更为深厚的文化底蕴和更为广阔的发展空间。     

Alan Blyth: A very enabling man

Young children learn through practical experiences. The building bricks known as Poleidoblocs present opportunities to use and characterise a set of related 3-D mathematics shapes. This study identifies ways in which geometric awareness develops through free play and structured tasks, but points to limitations in learning without teacher interaction.     

论格沃斯基于辩证必要性的道德哲学

在欧美学界产生广泛影响的格沃斯学派的基本哲学立场与传统道德哲学思潮不同。格沃斯道德哲学的规范性既不是建立在具体的经验善,比如幸福,也不在善的生活或者超验的自由性基础之上,而是建立在我们施为能力(agency)的规范性(normativity)结构之中。他采用了辩证逻辑的方式,通过施为者内在慎思,阐明了一个内容和形式都兼具必要性的道德最高原则。一言以蔽之,格沃斯的道德哲学认同道德有唯一普遍有效最高原则,但此原则既非纯粹形式的,亦非纯粹经验的,而是兼顾两者的。该原则的实践必要性完全建立在施为主体对施为能力的前提条件以及逻辑一致性的必要认同之上。这样一来,格沃斯的道德哲学就同以超验形式主义为特征的康德哲学,以精致计算有用性为特征的功利主义,个人品格塑造为特征的德性伦理学有了根本的区别。     

埃德加·艾伦·坡诗歌中美学思想

可以这样说,艾伦.坡在世界文学史上是一名不折不扣的"怪才、鬼才",无论在小说界、文学评论界还是诗歌界,他都是当之无愧的"天才",他甚至还开创了侦探小说的先河。细细品读艾伦·坡的诗歌意境,会发现其诗歌所传达的想象力、情感性、音乐性以及唯美型均属独到。本文将分析其诗歌中所表达的美学思想,提请对坡作为一名诗人来关注和重视。
