UCLA Community College Bibliography

In this article, we report on the articles published in Community College Journal of Research and Practice (CCJRP) from 1990 to 2000 regarding Latinos at community colleges. Although research published in CCJRP has produced important findings, we contend there is a need for a richer account of the experiences and understandings of Latinos at American community colleges. We propose a new line of research to investigate cultural barriers that undermine Latino success as community college students, faculty, staff, and campus leaders. We refer to these cultural barriers as "la tercera frontera". We conclude the article with discussion of heterogeneity and homogeneity, two key concepts that we believe are central to understanding la tercera frontera.     

A CRITIQUE OF RESEARCH ON WOMEN PUBLISHED IN THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE JOURNAL OF RESEARCH AND PRACTICE: 1990-2000

An examination of titles and abstracts of the 491 articles published in the Community College Journal of Research and Practice (CCJRP) between 1990 to 2000 resulted in a collection of 26 articles to base a systematic review of the literature regarding women in two-year colleges. Several themes emerged concerning women's participation and uniqueness in the community college, services designed to meet the needs of women, and ways in which the community college can grow to more fully represent and support women. Basic suggestions for improving research designs, methodologies, and reporting of studies on women are included.     

Autobiographical Counternarratives from the Community College to the PhD

ABSTRACT

Historically, community colleges and those they serve have been relegated to the margins of academe. Community colleges’ critics argue that students starting at two-year institutions are less likely to earn bachelor’s degrees and have lower student outcomes. This CCJRP Exchange Article draws upon counternarratives in highlighting multiple truths of the community experience through use of scholarly personal narratives (SPN) of those that moved in, through and out the community college to the PhD. The faculty member and doctoral students reflect on how their community college experiences influenced their career trajectories. Further, implications for community college practice, policy, and research are shared as the authors make a case for applying SPN in an effort to see community colleges as sites of deep growth that have lasting effects on the personal and professional lives of their students.     

The cultural milieu of counseling

This article explores the mono-cultural milieu of counseling. There are four primary contributors to the cultural domination of counseling by the Western culture. They are as follows: (1) the deep historical and philosophical roots of counseling in Western culture; (2) the dominant theories, practices and approaches of counseling make the assumption that counseling will take place within a Western culture; (3) the bulk of research and literature pertaining to counseling concentrates on counseling within the West; (4) the emulation by non-Western nations of Western models of counseling. The concept of cultural dissonance is given to help in the understanding of the relation of culture to a counseling relationship at a given time between counselor and client.     

三层次视域下竞技武术的“西方模仿”

本文运用文献资料法、逻辑分析法等研究方法,从武术文化三层次入手,深入研究竞技武术的"西方模仿"因素。研究表明,竞技武术在"物器层"、"制度层"以及"精神层"上都对西方进行着深度的模仿。在这演变过程中,正是由于我们多年来一直以西方的审美价值观念来引导武术的变革,最终让武术进入了进退维谷的尴尬境遇。因此,我们应抛弃以西方体育和西方文化为标准,更不应以此来制约、裁剪我们博大精深的武术。否则将加速武术的消亡进程。若干年后,我们丢失的就不仅仅只是武术本身,而是失去我们整个民族在自我文化上的自尊和认同。     

试论美国文化多元性的成因与特征

美国文化从它的创造主体分析是一种移民文化。它在美国经过初步形成、成熟定型进入当前的多元文化发展阶段。美国移民的多“源”性决定了这种文化在民族认同基础上具有鲜明的多元性。影响移民文化形成发展的三个主要要素是：移民祖籍国的文化传统，移民与新环境的斗争以及在此过程中不同族裔移民的融合。它对美国的双重影响，既有“海纳百川”的包容性与杂交性，也可以成为某些美国社会问题产生的文化因素。     

论蒙古族传统生态文化

蒙古族具有独特而丰富的传统生态文化，体现在生产方式、生活方式等诸多方面，既有物质生态文化，也有非物质生态文化。从文化类型讲以狩猎文化类型的生态文化和畜牧文化类型的生态文化为主，同时也有农业文化类型的生态文化。人与自然和谐相处。是游牧文化的按心和灵魂。研克生态文化，对于保护生态环境。构建社会主义和谐社会，都具有重大现实意义。近年来，蒙古族传统生态文化，遇到了前所未有的挑战和冲击。所以，抢救和保护蒙古族传统生态文化，迫在眉睫。     

"走进"与"走出"的境遇--全球化趋势下的黑衣壮文化保护与开发

在现代社会的进程中,传统的黑衣壮化受到了现代明的严重冲击,方方面面都发生了改变,许多传统化形式面临着失传的命运。如何在发展中实现保护,在保护中进行开发,成为了黑衣壮人、研究、政府以及商业人士共同关注的问题。在黑衣壮化保护与开发的理论建构上,研究们在实地调查的基础上进行了深入的探讨,认为：化需要在活的历史潮流中取得发展。传统化的内涵是化发展的基础和源泉,任何脱离传统的化发展都将是无本之木、无源之水,难以有长久生命力。因此,黑衣壮化须以开发为途径,以保护为目的,以培养黑衣壮本民族的民族自觉意识为根本,协调社会各方面力量,群策群力,共同努力。     

中国传统法律文化转型及现代法治构建

当前,中国正在进行着一场深刻的法治现代化革命,在这场法治现代化进程中,如何客观、公正地对待传统法律文化显的尤为重要。中国传统法律文化表现为宗法等级、皇权至上、法律工具主义、对个人权利漠视等明显不符合现代法治精神的内容,这就需要重塑与现代法治相符的现代法律文化,即对权力制约的同时保护公民个人权利,塑造现代公民人格。当然,在法治现代化过程中,同时要重视对传统法律文化的吸收,利用传统法律文化的固有载体来表达现代法治的内在要求。     

Leveraging new media skills in a peer feedback tool

Today's youth thrive in informal participatory communities where they not only consume but also act as contributors or producers. Through active participation they develop new media skills encompassing cultural competencies and social skills. In a participatory culture of learning, students' active contributions to their learning are stressed and peer feedback is considered an important component. In this paper we consider how to leverage aspects of these skills and the environments in which they are developed in the design of a peer feedback tool for students engaged in collaborative inquiry learning. The tool needs to be lightweight, and “playful” and draw on these participatory skills in order to entice and motivate students to give and receive feedback.     

西方文化强势地位的结构理析与现实启示

西方文化的强势地位是由多方面要素共同作用的结果。具体分析可以发现,它是由西方国家的文化势能、权力体系、对外文化战略、大众文化、科学技术和媒体传播等要素有机组成的完整的结构体,从而保证了西方文化在多元文化竞争中独领风骚的地位。从现实的角度来看,我们需要理性分析西方文化的各要素,探求文化发展的现实条件和影响因素,以保证中国文化的先进性质。     

Action learning and executive education: achieving credible personal,practitioner and organisational learning

Action learning involves balancing the often conflicting forces between working knowledge and academic knowledge. This paper explores the experience of executive learners; academics and external contributors involved in action learning at the postgraduate level. The executive learners are members of cohorts on two masters programmes based in Ireland. The programmes adopt an action learning methodology. Action learning supports a reflective culture for the executive learners and an enriched understanding of their workplace. The challenges associated with action learning are explored. The understanding of best practice in the facilitation of action learning for executive learners is enriched for practitioners and academics. The use of narrative structuring provides an insight into the reality of action learning for executive learners. If action learning is to be successfully integrated into executive education, then there needs to be high levels of communication, commitment and trust between the executive learners; academics and external contributors.     

Top contributors to the school psychology literature: 1996–2005

An erratum has been published for this article in Psychology in the Schools 43(7) 2006, iii‐vi. [ ]. S.G. Little (1997) reported the top contributors to the school psychology literature from 1987 to 1995. The present study represents a follow‐up by examining the top contributors from 1996 to 2005. Similar to Little, a list of the top 50 contributors was developed using a point system that assigned more credit based on fewer coauthors and higher authorship placement. Expanding upon the Little study, we also computed a list of the top 50 contributors in terms of number of articles authored, thus facilitating a comparison of the two methods. Melissa Bray ranked first on both lists. The top 10 authors in terms of articles also were ranked in the top 13 in terms of points. Thus, for the most productive authors, choice of criteria for ranking does not appear important; however, in terms of encouraging versus discouraging collaboration among researchers, criteria choice may be important. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

论西方心理学发展过程中的社会影响因素

任何一种思想都是一定社会历史条件的产物,各种心理学思想的形成和发展不仅有其历史的思想渊源,还有其产生的社会政治、经济等基础.只有研究历史,我们才能知道文化与社会力量怎样铸成人们的态度.正是这些态度塑造成了我们今天所知道的心理学.     

Problematising ‘Transformative’ Environmental Education in a Climate Crisis

The Editor's Introduction sets the stage for this Special Issue with calls for action in light of the climate crisis and other environmental problems sweeping our planet. It then offers a brief overview of the topics our contributors address, and in some cases the philosophical sources they brought into this conversation. It then surveys the background literature on ‘transformative’ environmental education, the topic being problematised and developed by our contributors. This review of the literature reveals a wide range of interpretations, but also shows some productive hybrids in terms of transformation and transgression: seen as opportunities for effecting the changes in attitude, values and behaviours we need for our collective survival. Questions of efficacy are briefly discussed, although it was not the purpose of this Special Issue to decide which are the most effective eco-pedagogies. In closing, we remark on the need for foresight in educational planning and policy, as in government generally, to address the magnitude of problems threatening all life on this planet.     

从语境顺应看《菊与刀》中的耻感文化

本尼迪克特在她的《菊与刀》中指出日本文化是不同于欧美"罪感文化"的"耻感文化"。Verschueren认为,人们使用语言的过程实际上是一个不断选择语言的过程。本文在顺应论理论框架下对《菊与刀》中的"耻感文化"进行了语境顺应性的分析。通过分析耻感文化背景下的日本人在交际过程中是如何对交际语境进行动态顺应并作出相应的语言选择,进一步探讨了语言的选择与文化语境的密切关系。     

中国文化现代化与中国人心理发展的关系

文化是人类特有的现象，人类创造了文化，反过来，文化又影响和制约着人类自身心理的发展，文化贯穿于人类社会的各个领域，体现着人的本质和人的发展；文化分为器物层、制度层和观念器。观念更新对于一个民族的生存和发展，有着重大的影响。对发扬民族的创新精神具有重要意义。中国文化的现代化固然需要崇高的精神劳动的创造，但这种创造也需融入中国人自身心理的成熟发展等更广泛的实践过程中；通过中国人自身的心理调适与心理现代化的发展，促进整个中国文化的现代化。     

蒙古族狩猎习俗

狩猎生产的整个过程，不仅构成了蒙古族物质文化的主体，也深刻地影响着本民族精神文化的各个方面，狩猎文化随着人与自然，人与动物，动物与自然及动物与动物之间的内部生态平衡规律，走过漫长的历史变革进程，并形成了其独有的特色，深入研究和阐释狩猎文化的历史沿革及发展规律，对拓展和深化游牧文化研究有着十分重要的意义。

“后超女”时代的传媒身份的反思

传媒作为文化的载体，也扮演着文化制造者和贩卖者的角色。“超级女声”和“大长今”现象，对应出当代中国传媒界在处理文化和传媒关系时，充当着为社会量身定做新观念和价值标准的终极评判者的角色；同时又实际上悄然消解着文化的传统正规地位。在分析和追溯中，寻找传媒在制造文化和化解文化的过程中其自身合理的动机和目的性。
