My school redux: re-storying schooling with the My School website

This paper explores the effects of audit cultures on school education through a highly personal reading of the My School website, launched in Australia in 2010. It situates two personal narratives, from the points of view of student and teacher, alongside the other stories available about two of the secondary schools listed on the website. Although statistics such as those generated through the National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy tests, school comparisons and post-school destinations present certain kinds of stories about these schools, I argue that these are reductionist and insufficient for understanding the complexities of pedagogical spaces and the teachers and learners within them. Whilst arguments for hard data to address educational inequity can be marshalled to support My School, I suggest that it also inadvertently disguises other elements of schooling and risks increasing inequity. Rather, the statistical stories might be recognised as partial and supplemented and disrupted by richer accounts, including narrative accounts, about schooling.

21世纪新的战争样式——网络战

所谓网络战是指以己方战场网络为武器,以瘫痪敌方战场网络,进而瘫痪敌方整个作战体系为目的的一种全新的战争样式。它的出现既有时代的背景、技术的牵引,也有其历史的渊源。1991年的海湾战争和1999年的科索沃战争中,网络战已初露锋芒。随着科学技术的迅猛发展,网络战在21世纪将更显峥嵘。     

冷战初期美国对外隐蔽心理战的考察

冷战初期,杜鲁门政府将隐蔽心理战视为遏制苏联共产主义扩张的重要手段之一,先后出台了NSC4/A、NSC10/2、NSC59/1、NSC10/5等文件,确立了国家对外隐蔽心理战略的基本框架.艾森豪威尔执政后,又出台了NSC5412/1和NSC5412/2号系列文件,扩大了国家对外隐蔽心理战略的范围,强调了对外隐蔽心理战在实现国家对外政策目标中的重要性,从而进一步完善了国家对外隐蔽心理战略.由近年解密的美国政府文件材料可管窥冷战初期美国对外隐蔽心理战略的形成与发展,考察美国对外隐蔽心理战实施过程和效果,揭示美国对外隐蔽心理战的阴险性和破坏性.
