The Principalship in Transition

Many individuals enter administration not fully prepared for their roles. This is because many preparatory programs have persistent weaknesses in the linkage between theory and practice, are irrelevant and grossly inadequate for the current responsibilities of the principalship, and overlook teaching the social realities of administrative roles. Along with aligning administrative programs with standards of effective leadership, the social side of administration must be considered and addressed.     

Higher education recruitment in the United States: a chronology of significant literature

ABSTRACT

Given the absence of a chronology of the historical philosophies, perspectives, and practices of recruitment within the higher education institutions in the United States, the authors have assembled an overview of the material on recruitment strategies and ideologies of American higher education institutions. Literature from and about the past aids in illuminating the current context while helping to navigate the future of higher education recruitment. The authors have identified five general periods: prior to 1920, 1921 to the end of the Second World War, the post-War decade, mid-1950s through the 1970s, and 1980s to the present. Documentation for each period varies significantly in quality and amount, with the densest data found for the two later periods. Future researchers may explore how recruitment practices and language encourage or discourage under-represented populations in higher education. Further research in other areas of educational recruitment is also suggested.     

高等教育多样化发展的哲学反思和历史溯源

多样化是高等教育发展的根本趋势和基本历史走向。高等教育多样化的核心内涵和根本特征在于其功能的多样化。这在高等教育发展史中表现为，(1)通过高等教育组织机构的多样化，推动、促进高等教育功能类型的增加；(2)通过高等教育融资渠道的多样化，推动、促进高等教育功能强度的增强。多样化有助于高等教育的合法化存在和发展，但是，它也有其效用限度，即多样化无法解决高等教育功能结构的优化和合理化问题。为此，必须以可持续发展的思想和原则为指导，坚持高等教育的多样化发展与政府的宏观统筹、集中调控之间的辩证统一。     

El Colegio Altamirano (1897–1958): New Histories of Chicano Education in the Southwest

In the history of education, every generation brings forth someone who has a lasting impact on the current and future generations of educators. Ralph Winfred Tyler was one of those people. His life spanned nearly the entire 20th century, and his concepts of curriculum and instruction transcended this long and fruitful existence. They are found today embedded in the accountability and reform movements. This article is a short celebration of his contributions and life lest, in our hurry to improve our schools, we forget this bit of heritage.     

高等教育哲学视野下的普通教育与专业教育

普通教育和专业教育在现代大学中的关系问题是近代高等教育发展史上的重要问题.本文拟从高等教育哲学视野来探讨普通教育与专业教育的对立与融合,并试图从中阐明21世纪大学教育的目标和立足点.     

论新中国初期高等教育中的“教育为人民服务”思想

新中国成立初期,党在教育领域提出了"教育为人民服务"的思想。其涵义主要有三:工农是服务的核心;工农是受教育的主体;国家经济建设是服务的方向。所以提出这一思想,根本原因在于当时教育的状况,其中最主要的是高等教育的现状与实现为人民服务的要求相去太远。为此在高等教育领域采取了倾斜招生政策、解决实际困难、创办新型大学和改造师生思想等措施,以落实"教育为人民服务"这一思想。     

高等教育哲学与高等教育研究的创新发展——中美两部《高等教育哲学》的启示

无论是高等教育实践还是高等教育学的学科发展都期待我国当前的高等教育研究有创新性的发展,而高等教育研究的创新发展离不开成熟的高等教育哲学的支撑.哲学的贫乏一直是我国高等教育研究创新发展的重大障碍之一,而高等教育生命论哲学的兴起和发展则昭示着我国高等教育研究创新发展的新契机.     

对于伯顿·R.克拉克高等教育系统三要素的历史检视

从大学发展的历史阶段性维度考察克拉克的高等教育系统三要素,即工作、信念和权力,同时,对每一时期具有鲜明特色的要素从高等教育哲学的角度进行分析和探讨,这将有助于我们揭示高等教育系统要素的时代特征,深化我们对于大学理念和精神特质的认识,更好地把握大学发展的历史脉络,也有利于我们探索把高等教育系统的具体要素和知识特征与我国的文化传统、具体国情和现实问题结合起来,创建具有自己民族文化特色的世界高水平大学。     

This 3 × 5 Civilization

In this information age, the world is fast becoming a global village. In this context, it is relevant to look at the educational vision of Rabindranath Tagore. He tried to realize his educational vision in his schools and Visva-Bharati University where the world makes its home in a single nest. Tagore's vision of international education can help to prevent misunderstanding and war, promote peace, foster multiculturalism, connect human beings, and celebrate their common heritage     

奥地利高等教育的发展及其影响

奥地利有着辉煌的历史，其高等教育也取得了骄人的成绩，在世界高等教育史上具有举足轻重的影响。奥地利高等教育产生于中世纪宗教的襁褓，后曾沦为政治的工具，工业革命后又逐渐走向服务经济的发展道路，及至今天则走上了市场化改革的道路。奥地利高等教育的发展既是世界高等教育历程的一个缩影，也对世界高等教育发展产生了深远的影响。     

Activism,identity and service: the influence of the Asian American Movement on the educational experiences of college students

This article emphasises two major themes that address the influence of the Asian American Movement: (1) encouraging students to broaden the discourse on race and ethnic relations by redefining categories and challenging prevalent assumptions; (2) an increased tolerance and frequency in course offerings that examine and centralise the histories, literature and political underpinnings of Asian Americans and ethnic (i.e. Japanese) specific communities, which has equipped students to engage in discourse and community action. Countering dominant narratives through unification and education is the means by which Asian American students fought for representation and fair treatment.

Teaching energy in high school by making use of history and philosophy of science

How to improve students' understanding of energy transformation and conservation remains one of the main challenges of energy teaching. To address this challenge, we developed a new teaching strategy suited to high school based on history and philosophy of science (HPS). It involves five key ingredients: study and reproduction of Joule's paddle-wheel experiment, introduction of Rankine's definition, study of a historical text of Joule, use of an “ID card of energy,” and early introduction and multiple application of the principle of energy conservation. This strategy was built and implemented in the frame of a collaborative and iterative work involving researchers and teachers. We examined the effects of this HPS-based teaching strategy on students' understanding of energy. We used a quantitative method based on pre- and post-tests (N = 95/87) completed by a qualitative analysis using both video recordings of classroom activities and videos produced by students during one of the teaching sequences. The outcomes show that the teaching strategy had an overall positive impact on students' learning of energy: in particular, Joule's paddle-wheel experiment seems to favor their understanding of the notion of energy transformation, while the early introduction and multiple application of the conservation principle appears as a relevant option to facilitate its mastering. This study illustrates how HPS might actually be introduced in classrooms and brings to light its usefulness for building new science teaching strategies.

欧洲大学史的研究史

通过对欧洲大学史研究相关成果的梳理,本文把欧洲大学史的研究史划分为萌芽和起步、初步发展和专门的学科领域三个阶段。三个阶段的特征分别为:描述记录式研究、理性批判式研究和多维阐释性研究。我们应该借鉴欧洲大学史的研究,加强我国大学和高等教育等方面的相关史料建设,广泛吸取各学科史、专门史的研究者从多个角度对我国大学史和高等教育史进行研究。     

Education: From telos to technique?

A preoccupation with technology has helped bury the philosophical question: What is the point of education? I attempt to answer this question. Various answers to the question are surveyed and it is shown that they depend upon different conceptions of the self. For example, the devotional‐self of the 12th century (which was about becoming master of the self) gave way to the liberal‐self (which was to facilitate social change). Education can only be satisfactorily justified, I argue, by appeal to transcendent values such as mastery of the self, which is incipient in liberal education.
