The University Lost: The Meaning of the University

This essay examines the current state of the University in terms of lost meaning and value, especially from the perspective of scholarship. The author specifically points to three works of literature and writers on the subject, and how these works have significantly contributed to our understanding of what is taking place within the modern University, and how the University has transitioned and specifically, radically changed from its originary purpose to the “modern” University as an institution narrower in scope and depth, role, and even responsibility. The author examines the writings of John Henry Newman, Bill Readings, and John Milton, and comments on several of their ideas and demonstrates how these ideas are relevant in understanding and improving the modern University which has shifted from academic to managerial orientation; faculty to administrators—hence its decline. Finally, the author provides several examples of challenges in the modern University and how these have created the gaps in perceived and real purpose and philosophy of the ideal university versus current “all-administrative” university and its perceived status and role.

The modernisation of research evaluation: The case of the UK

The Research Assessment Exercise (RAE), first established by the UK University Grants Committee in 1985 has been an important instrument in the modernisation of higher education in the UK. It is a means of rationalising the stratification of universities and the concentration of research resources, and of maximising research output. At the same time, while its operation remains substantially under professional control, it has had profound implications for the academic profession. The article explores these through analysing the workings of the RAE and its consequences for higher education institutions, departments and individuals. It suggests that the RAE has triggered substantial changes in the management of the research function in universities and in the culture of university departments. It has disturbed the web of relationship between the individual academic, the discipline, the department and the institution. It has impacted on individual professional identities and concepts of research responsibilities.

"悟"的审美历程

“悟”是中国古代诗学审美体验的核心范畴,它经历了一个由哲学范畴向美学范畴再向文艺美学范畴的深刻嬗变过程。其中,中国传统的“天人合一”思想和道家哲学思想是其很重要的哲学基础,魏晋之际,“悟”成为一个具有中国特色的审美范畴,在南宋时则成为一个文艺美学范畴。     

UCS-PROMOVE: The engineer of the future

The Universidade de Caxias do Sul (UCS) elaborated the cooperative project called ‘The engineer of the future’, with the objective of promoting science and engineering among high school teachers and students. This project aims to improve the quality of the teaching and to increase the interest of students in technological areas, leading to a future career in engineering. The activities of this project were planned to give meaning and foundation to the teaching–learning process of science and for the application of theory in the solution of real problems, while articulating scientific, economic, environmental, social and political aspects and also to reinforce the important role of engineering in society. Amongst the activities to be offered to high school teachers and students are a specialisation course for teachers based upon new educational methodologies, workshops in different areas of science and technology, a programme entitled ‘Encouraging girls in technology, science and engineering’, science fairs and visits to the industries of the region. Activities with the engineering instructors of UCS are also being developed in order to help them to incorporate in their classes more effective pedagogical strategies for educating the engineer-to-be.     

Match: The Report of the School

Schools are currently suffering from considerable ‘innovation overload’ with multiple changes being demanded by the Education Reform Act and other sources. Tom Peters (1988) has argued that a similar turbulent situation exists in US business and industry and suggests that the most successful companies are those which are able to ‘Thrive on Chaos’. LEAs and schools need knowledge and skills about school improvement and this article attempts to provide research‐based information to help them cope with innovation and improve teaching and learning.

School improvement is seen as a combination of previous research on the management of change and school effectiveness. Eight factors which seem to be related to effective schools are listed and knowledge about the change process is used to consider how a school could be improved. In order to offer practical help to LEAs and schools a set of guidelines is provided and recent research findings are discussed under each heading. The article concludes with an outline of a possible LEA school improvement project, involving a set of stages.

蒸汽技术革命:科学社会主义诞生的助力

蒸汽技术革命同科学社会主义有着正相关的历史联系。它不仅在历史上创造了科学社会主义理论在西欧诞生的客观前提，推动了社会主义从空想到科学的飞跃，而且对科学社会主义进行了持久的推动。但是，同时也给科学社会主义的第一个历史形态——马克思主义打上了历史的烙印，使之受到种种历史局限。

范式的转化研究:教育理论实践化的桥梁

范式的转化研究，是教育理论研究成果向教育实践转化的必经研究阶段，是教育理论实践化和教育实践理性化的中介研究形式。范式的转化研究为教育理论的实践化提供过渡性的知识，具有独特的从理论到实践的价值。没有教育理论范式的转化研究，教育理论就缺乏进入实践的过渡性知识，就难以具有操作性。
