留学生英语语法教学调查研究

通过对留学生英语语法教学调查发现：留学生一般不将英语的语法学习作为一门独立的课程：在教学方法上,应采用交际教学法使形式和意义并重;在教学目的上,语法课的学习动力多来自于考试。

来华留学生专业基础课程学习的探索——以中国地质大学(武汉)通信专业留学生为例

随着来华留学生规模的增加,各个国家的留学生的基础不太一样,而且目前来学校学习通信电子的来华留学生主要都是一些发展中国家,我们国内的重视基础理论的教育模式已经越来越不能满足这些发展中国家留学生的需求。如何满足学生的各种学习要求,增加学生学习的积极性与主动性,开展多种模式教育,对于我们吸引更多的留学生学习,提高我们的办学水平很有帮助。本文根据来华留学生的特点,讲述了来华留学生普遍存在的问题,如数理基础薄弱,更喜欢实践等,探索了专业基础课程教学中的一些方法。

Intercultural PhD supervision: exploring the hidden curriculum in a social science faculty doctoral programme

International knowledge markets rely heavily on a ready supply of highly mobile doctoral students, many of whom are from the global South, to bring in revenue. The supervision of these PhD students, however, can reproduce neo-colonial knowledge relations, often in subtle ways. In settler nations, international PhD students may find that they are assigned subaltern status in their university departments and this can have a significant impact on their learning. This paper explores the experiences of a group of international PhD students in a social science faculty in a New Zealand university during the first two years of their doctoral studies. It examines how they responded to the displacement of their cultural values and priorities, the way they navigated intercultural engagements with supervisors, and their ensuing relationships with indigenous and ethnic allies in the faculty. Despite considerable pressure to conform to the dominant modes of academic knowledge production that characterise universities in settler nations, it is concluded that international students find ways of speaking out, often in highly coded forms, that complicate their subaltern academic status.     

Double-edged sword: social media use in the classroom

The purpose of this research is to identify the students’ perceptions of social media use in a classroom setting. Knowing students’ perceptions of social media can help the instructor build a course that both student and teacher can find effective. Using focus groups this study found a model to determine if social media is an appropriate or inappropriate tool to incorporate into the classroom. The findings showed that social media can be a double-edged sword. Students are willing to accept social media use for class purposes under circumstances they perceive as appropriate. Students deem social media use as appropriate if it can be used without providing personal information, is the most effective tool available, can be engaged in voluntarily, is used for the purpose of announcements, and is perceived by the students as a convenience.     

Feeling feedback: students’ emotional responses to educator feedback

Assessment feedback allows students to obtain valuable information about how they can improve their future performance and learning strategies. However, research indicates that students are more likely to reject or ignore comments if they evoke negative emotional responses. Despite the importance of this issue, there is a lack of research exploring if certain types of students are more likely to experience negative emotional responses than others. This study builds on extant qualitative studies through a quantitative examination of two previously identified student variables: different citizenship backgrounds (domestic and international) and different grade expectations (higher or lower than expected). The participants were 4514 students from two Australian universities. Analysis of survey data revealed that, regardless of language experience, international students were more likely than domestic students to find feedback comments to be discouraging, upsetting and too critical. Students who received grades lower than they expected on a particular assessment task were more likely than students who received grades higher than they expected to feel sad, shameful and angry as a result of the feedback comments. This paper concludes with several recommendations, including the need to modify assessment feedback practices in order to be sensitive to different student cohorts.     

Fish out of water: refugee and international students in mainstream Australian schools

In this paper, the authors combine Pierre Bourdieu's concept of hysteresis (the ‘fish out of water’ experience) with the discourse historical approach to critical discourse analysis (CDA) as a theoretical and analytical framework through which they examine specific moments in the schooling experiences of one refugee student and one international student, both enrolled in post-compulsory education in Australian mainstream secondary schools. We examine specific moments – as narrated by these students during interviews – in which these students can be described as ‘fish out of water’. As such, this paper takes up the concerns of researchers who call for an examination of the lived geographies and the everyday lives of individual students in mainstream schools. We find that our students' habitus, conditioned by their previous schooling experiences in their home countries, did not match their new Australian schools, resulting in frustration with, and alienation from, their mainstream schools. However, we also note that schools, too, need to adapt and adjust their habitus to the new multicultural world, in which there are international and refugee students among their usual cohort of mainstream students.     

Acculturative Experiences of Black-African International Students

There has been a significant increase in the number of international students pursuing higher education in the U.S. since 2001. Upon arrival, students are often beset with feelings of isolation and alienation, which are characteristic of adjusting to a new culture. African International students, specifically Black-African international students, are no different in this regard and often experience significant adjustment concerns. Most notable of the concerns for Black-African students are the issues of prejudice and discrimination, which can lead to the experience of acculturative stress. It is, therefore, imperative that institutions find ways to help Black-African international students adjust better to life in the U.S. This paper discusses some adjustment concerns of Black-African international students and provides some suggestions for addressing their concerns.     

中国钢琴作品在高师钢琴教学中的运用

钢琴是律制不同于中国民族乐器律制的西洋乐器，中国钢琴音乐由于在钢琴上演奏，不同于中国原有传统音乐。在中国音乐文化自己独特风格和体系的艺术传统下，中国钢琴音乐的创作显示着两种文明交融带来的文化内部的斗争、冲突、调矛口、融合。按照中国传统文化中的和谐、中庸美学观，作曲家在冲突中摸索着使二者平衡的方法和形式。重视本民族音乐文化已经成为近年来国际音乐教育发展的重要趋势，高等师范院校学生应该在接受西方优秀音乐文化成果的同时，牢固地掌握本民族优秀的音乐文化成果，使二者相辅相成。互相促进。     

受教育权关照下的办学自主权——从泉州民办学校招生案件谈起

泉州民办学校招生案件是个教育变革时代的典型案例,从宪法上解答这个案件具有重大意义。从宪法的受教育条款的逻辑结构可以分析出办学自主权的存在,并证明把考试作为招生方式是民办学校的权利;另一方面,分析受教育条款中的义务教育性质,可以得出民办学校的招生方式不属于政府监管的范围,民办学校没有义务免试招生。这个案件使人们直接认识了办学自主权的内容、范围及其界限,从而更深入认识了宪法受教育条款特殊的三方主体的逻辑结构,社会权和自由权兼具的两个层次的价值结构,以及三方主体各自的法律权利义务的界限,生动地阐释了宪法第46条。     

The effect of work placements on the academic performance of Chinese students in UK higher education

The main controversy as a result of the commercialisation of international education markets is that international students especially those from China are unable to perform as well as UK students in UK universities. So far, research has yet to identify the influence of placements on the academic performance of Chinese students from entry to graduation. Using four cohorts of accounting and finance students in a UK university, this present work is the first to find that Chinese students who undertake placements in the third year are seven times more likely to achieve good degrees (2.1 or 1st) than those who opt out of work placements. It is also found that Chinese students who have a high prior academic achievement and better academic results from years 1 and 2 are likely to undertake placements. Finally, the results show that the academic performance of international students is influenced by domicile.     

关于当前教学评价理论基础的反思

教学评价是教学活动中的重要一环，起着诊断教学效果、调节教学活动、强化学生学习的作用。但当前基础教育的教学评价，只是使学生线粹地接受教育中固有的意义，使灌输已有的原义成为了教育的主要任务，导致学生是否接受这种原义和接受的程度作为评价学生的主要依据。这种评价方式对教学是有害的，教学评价的重建应是从外在的机械的评价转向内在性的评价。
