以自己为圆心画个太阳

童年的一天,他在屋里玩,父亲沉默地坐在角落里。10分钟内,他做了11件事情:写了一个半字,画了一个没画成的苹果,看了几秒钟书,大叫了几声,踢翻了一个凳子,发呆半分钟,玩了三样玩具而且都扔到了门外,傻乎乎地唱了几句歌,欣赏了一下父亲没画完的画作,画了个女孩并哈哈大笑,最后发疯地叫了几声妈……     

盛开的樱桃花

春天到了,小草绿了,树叶长出来了。小鸟在树上叽叽喳喳叫个不停,好像在为春天的到来歌唱;溪水哗哗地流着,欢乐地拍打着沿岸的石头。草儿绿了,花儿开了,天蓝了,雪融化了。那樱桃花也盛开了,开得如此的灿烂,如此的美丽。我一看到它,就想起了我曾经听过的一段故事:     

我记得……

我记得,母亲上床休息,总是等孩子们在火炕上睡了,等进了窝的鸡睡了,等挂在屋檐下的镰刀睡了,等炉灶里冒着烟的火睡了,等储藏室里的叉子和盆子睡了,等对着井水照影子的苹果树睡了,等白鹳鸟巢(cháo)上空的云睡了,等被庄稼起伏摇荡的田野里的路睡了。     

我长大了

告别了充满童趣的低年级,踏入了洋溢着希望的高年级。虽然,课程增加了许多,作业的包袱也重了几分,玩耍的时间更少了,但是,我却真切地感到:"我长大了!"我长大了,告别幼稚,走向了成熟。我看问题的角度变了,变得更加客观、全面;我常常努力尝试依靠自己的力量弄清某个事物的原理。我长大了,告别依赖,走向了独立。我

坚持作文走生活之路

近些年来,作文作秀的现象已成了众矢之的。梦境多了,真情少了;忧郁多了,天真少了;深沉多了,清纯少了;抒情多了,记叙少了;概述多了,素描少了;柔情多了,激情少了;历史多了,现实少了;排比多了,平实少了;感悟多了,经历少了;上帝多了,自己少了。学生作文越来越偏离了自己的感情世界和真实的生活。     

守住语文教学的“本分”

综观当前的语文课堂,我们欣喜地看到了：教师教学理念变新了,教学内容拓宽了,知识结构综合了,教学方式丰富了……但同时我们也看到不少语文课堂,尤其是常态课上,其教学内容“胖”了,教学环节“碎”了,能力训练“浮”了,教学形式“花”了,失去了语文教学的“本分”,教学效果自然就“虚化”了。这里例举小学语文教学中最为常见的三种偏失现象。     

笑声送给了……

糟了糟了—— 春天被打翻了, 洒出了生机勃勃的笑声, 笑声送给了小草,小草高兴地发芽生长; 笑声送给了花儿,花儿露出了美丽的笑脸; 笑声送给了孩子们,孩子们尽情地欢唱。

New educational technologies: Their impact on relationships of dependence and interdependence for Third World countries

The widening gap between North and South is more than economic: it is a knowledge and power gap. The influence of the present information revolution on education in the West, unprecedented in its rate and scope of expansion, is increasing the information gap at an alarming rate. Should Third World countries use new educational technologies (NET) as a tool for development? Can they afford it? Will borrowing NET perpetuate the present dependency of the Third World? This paper argues that Third World countries will continue to be technologically dependent because of research and development in the West. The solution lies in the balance of power theory — selective transfer of NET appropriate for their level of development, to strengthen their bargaining position. Mass education and the development of indigenous technological capacity are implied. Bargaining capacity would reduce dependency, create greater interdependence and change the equation of power.     

Student politics in the third world

Student political activism remains a key issue in the Third World despite its decline in the industrialized nations. Students continue to be active in politics and frequently have an impact on societal events. The historical development of student politics and student involvement in independence struggles, the role of students as incipient elites, and the fragility of the political structures of many Third World nations all contribute to the efficacy of student politics. Universities, as key intellectual institutions in their societies, also play an important role in Third World societies. Students, especially those in the social sciences, are fairly easy to mobilize and they often have a basic interest in political and social issues. It is argued that student movements emerge from their social and political environment and it is not surprising that activism continues as a powerful force in the Third World.     

布什政府的“民主改造”战略探析

“9.11”事件之后,美国加大了向第三世界国家推行民主自由价值的力度。布什政府借“反恐”之机,向第三世界国家特别是所谓的“流氓国家”与“失败国家”实施“民主改造”战略,不但采取政治、经济、军事等各种手段对这些国家进行“政权变更”,而且企图主导它们的“国家建设”进程。布什政府的“民主改造”战略本质上是为美国霸权服务的,必将遭到第三世界国家的强烈抵制,最终难逃失败的命运。     

Training Teachers to Use Computers in Third World Schools

ABSTRACT

This paper draws on research on the use of computers in Third World schools undertaken with the help of a grant from the Harold Macmillan Trust and the assistance of teachers and others in 23 Third World countries. In it we stress tfft importance of training all staff concerned in the introduction of computers into Third World schools, including the policy makers. We discuss training in the early days of introducing the innovation, and how a training cascade may or may not help. We examine the link between motivation to be trained and the prospect of leading change. We point out the virtues of teachers learning about computers in private and the need for software evaluation criteria for teachers to use. We look briefly at the links between training, the curriculum and assessment and at the training of programmers and technicians. We conclude that policy makers need to share with school principals, teachers, teacher educators and computer education specialists or consultants the task of reframing policy while reliable understanding of the state of the innovation emerges and the innovating group matures as a training resource in its own right     

Vocational Education and Training: Singapore and other Third World Initiatives

This paper examines the underlying reasons for the formulation of policies and practices to abate the growing problem of the ‘educated’ unemployed through the initiative of vocational education and training schemes. The paper outlines the main reasons why in Singapore there is a convergence between its vocational education and training strategy and work while this is not generally so for many other Third World countries. It then focusses its discussion on the reasons why there is a mismatch between vocational education and training and work in many Third World countries. The paper concludes by suggesting an alternative strategy for Third World countries through which they may be better able to interface education and work.     

Instructional development and third world textbooks

Educational conditions for children in Third World countries are considerably inferior to conditions in industrialized countries. One important effort to improve conditions has been major textbook-development projects financed by international organizations, including the World Bank. This article looks at the success of such projects and the possible reasons for problems. Then it addresses two crucial questions: Why have these major textbook-development projects ignored instructional development? What could instructional development offer these projects?     

作为中心与边缘的大学

本文讨论了工业化国家大学与第三世界大学之间的相互关系。作者认为 ,第三世界大学在各自国内发挥着重要作用 ,但是相对于工业化国家大学而言 ,第三世界大学处于边缘地位 ,在语言、学术基础设施、科研实力、知识交流途径等方面存在着种种不利。当然 ,大学的中心与边缘地位具有相对性 ,在不同国家之间乃至在一国内部 ,也存在中心大学与边缘大学的区分。作者还对改进第三世界高等教育提出了若干建设性意见。     

THIRD AGE EDUCATION: QUESTIONS THAT NEED ASKING

In many respects the third age is newly discovered territory, and it is therefore instructive to ask whether our understanding of the problems posed for education in the later years can in any way be aided by current developments in thinking about education in the Third World. In this paper the author, who brings to educational gerontology the experience of several years of specializing in education in developing countries, asserts that there are indeed intriguing and illuminating parallels to be drawn. In particular, education for the third age calls into question the social and economic imperialism of established patterns of formal education, while recent Third World examples of alternative development values suggest ways in which the educational contribution of the later years can be given the recognition that is not only its due but also its responsibility.     

International assistance to third world educational management training—A critical examination of alternative strategies

Recent years have seen an increase in international assistance to Third World educational management training. A range of strategies have been adopted by Third World governments and donor agencies to promote training improvement. The paper examines these strategies, drawing on the literature and the author's direct involvement in a U.K. funded research project concerned with developing materials for Third World Educational management training. The lessons from experiences are considered and an attempt is made to identify factors influencing the impact of alternative strategies, which may have implications for international assistance in this field. It is concluded that strategies can at best be catalytic and that a combination of integrated strategies focusing on all components of institutional and personnel development is most likely to contribute towards improvement. It is suggested that more flexible and innovative strategies could offer considerable potential and warrant greater attention by those concerned with educational management training development.
