教育能力论兼论高师院校的教育改革

教育能力是教师必须具备的专门职业能力,是教师素质的综合反映和集中体现,它直接决定着学校教育教学质量的高低。教育能力具有丰富的内涵,其结构包括动力因素、效能因素、个性因素三部分,它的形成和发展有赖于高师院校实施具有师范特色的素质教育,需要高师院校端正办学方向,在课程体系、教学内容、教学方法上不断改革与创新。培养教育能力是一项系统工程。为了保证师范教育的质量,则需对师范生的教育能力进行科学的评价,并促进这一能力的持续发展     

对我国高师院校教育成本的改革研究

教育成本是衡量学校办学效益的尺子，也是国家制定有关政策的重要依据。本文对高师院校教育成本的内涵及如何建立教育成本的约束机制进行了有益的研讨。

WHY "WHAT WORKS" WON'T WORK: EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE AND THE DEMOCRATIC DEFICIT IN EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH

A bstract .  In this essay, Gert Biesta provides a critical analysis of the idea of evidence-based practice and the ways in which it has been promoted and implemented in the field of education, focusing on the tension between scientific and democratic control over educational practice and research. Biesta examines three key assumptions of evidence-based education: first, the extent to which educational practice can be compared to the practice of medicine, the field in which evidence-based practice was first developed; second, the role of knowledge in professional actions, with special attention to what kind of epistemology is appropriate for professional practices that wish to be informed by the outcomes of research; and third, the expectations about the practical role of research implicit in the idea of evidence-based education. Biesta concludes that evidence-based practice provides a framework for understanding the role of research in educational practice that not only restricts the scope of decision making to questions about effectivity and effectiveness, but that also restricts the opportunities for participation in educational decision making. He argues that we must expand our views about the interrelations among research, policy, and practice to keep in view education as a thoroughly moral and political practice that requires continuous democratic contestation and deliberation.     

试论太平天国文化与教育改革的特点

太平天国在其长达14年之久的革命斗争过程中，不仅在政治上、经济上和军事上对封建统治阶级进行了猛烈的冲击，而且在化和教育方面进行了一系列的改革。太平天国化与教育改革具有鲜明的时代特点。一方面，太平天国顺应历史发展潮流，反映广大农民的利益和愿望，其化与教育改革既继承了传统，又有所创新，更体现了进步的平等思想；另一方面，由于受阶级和时代的局限，太平天国的化与教育改革又蒙上了浓厚的宗教色彩，并带有很大的落后性和盲目性。     

COOPERATIVE TEST CONSTRUCTION: THE LAST TEMPTATION OF EDUCATIONAL REFORM?

For decades traditional methods of testing have been criticized for saying relatively little reliably about students’ ability as well as causing anxiety, which can negatively affect students’ recall of learned information. The reform movement with its innovative approaches focusing on learner-centered education perceives assessment as an interactive feedback mechanism, which must provide for active, collaborative reflection by both teacher and students. This means that students must be active participants in designing assessment tasks and be given responsibility for using assessment data to monitor and improve their own learning (Valencia, 1990, p. 339). Focusing on alternative methods of assessment proposed by the opponents of traditional ones, the present study aimed at investigating the impact of cooperative test construction on Iranian EFL (English as a Foreign Language) students’ achievement as well as their attitudes towards such tests. The participants in this study were second- grade high school students (equivalent to Grade 11 in US senior high school) who were assigned to experimental and control groups based on their scores on a standardized retired version of Nelson test. Both groups received the same schedule of instruction for sixteen weeks. The students in the experimental group experienced cooperative test construction while the students in the control group did not have any role in the construction of their tests. The findings revealed statistically significant difference between grammatical knowledge of the students who cooperatively made their own test items and that of those who were tested traditionally. Furthermore, the students’ reactions to cooperative test construction were overwhelmingly positive.
