大众化背景下大学使命的重新审视

More attention should be paid to four issues during the massification of Chinese higher education: (1) how to understand the prime cause of the expansion of higher education; (2) how to reinforce liberal education; (3) how to balance the relationship between equality and excellence; and (4) how to harmonize the relationship between the university, the government and the market. All these are based on the orientation about the ultimate goal of universities. Modern universities must make students and the public understand that their ultimate mission is places where stratagems for profits and opportunities of employment are provided; rather, modern universities should inspire students’ rationalistic potencies, cultivate their ability to look upon the development of individuals, society and history from a long-term and all-around perspective.

美国高等教育领导研究：范式流变与理论解读

美国高等教育领导研究的特征和行为理论、权力和影响理论、复杂和混乱理论以及认知理论等,从不同的侧面阐释了有效的高等教育领导者的价值倾向、个性特征、行为模式和影响因素。随着研究的不断深入和人类知识的日益丰富,美国高等教育领导研究的研究内容、研究路径和研究对象发生变革,后现代建构主义理论成为构建新研究范式的主导思想。     

论进一步完善党委领导下的校长负责制

党委领导下的校长负责制是具有中国特色的高等学校领导体制。坚持党委领导下的校长负责制符合依法治校的要求,是“三个代表”重要思想的集中体现,能促进高等学校的科学发展。在新的历史条件下,必须进一步提高对坚持党委领导下的校长负责制的认识,并在理论和实践中不断完善这一体制：一是科学界定党委领导下的校长负责制的内涵;二是认真贯彻民主集中制原则;三是建立科学的决策程序和议事规则;四是不断加强领导班子建设。     

College presidents' role performance and faculty satisfaction

This research analyzed faculty evaluations of college presidents' role performance with the intent of identifying underlying dimensions and to ask further which dimensions predicted faculty satisfaction with presidents. Data were gathered from 896 faculty members from two technical colleges, three community colleges, two private universities and three public universities in a Western state. The factor analysis revealed three relatively independent dimensions of the presidential role: personal-public image, faculty and student interaction with presidents, and absence of autocratic leadership style. The personal-public image was the most important dimension and predicted faculty satisfaction across the four types of institutions of higher learning. Faculty-student interaction with the president, while not as important a dimension of the presidential role, predicted faculty satisfaction in three institutional types, but not in public universities. The absence of autocratic leadership style predicted satisfaction in community and technical colleges.     

在学习方式的变革中提高大学教学质量和办学水平——高等教育信息化的攻坚战

信息化正在打破大学传统教学模式及相应体制的多重壁垒,为大学改革开辟出阻力最小之路径;对大学教学的理解,必须突破传统课堂教学的狭隘眼界,从高素质人才培养的大视野中把握教学、科研、社会服务三大功能的内在联系,将提高大学教学质量的立足点建立在\"推动学习方式变革\"这一大学创新发展的难点和攻坚战上。研究和驾驭高等教育信息化,必须将对当代信息技术与大学变革发展的前瞻性把握这两个方面内在地统一起来,这是21世纪从事大学教育创新研究与决策管理的专业人才所必须具有的知识结构和时代眼界。     

论大学使命的演变

大学的使命就是大学在社会实践中所应担当的责任。大学使命是一个逐步发展、不断累积的过程。中世纪大学的使命是传递知识,19世纪大学的使命是科学研究,20世纪大学的使命是直接服务社会,21世纪大学的使命则应是塑造心灵。     

基于培养目标的高职学生学业评价探索——以国际经济与贸易专业为例

高等职业技术教育作为我国教育体系的重要组成部分,既有高等教育的共性,又有自己职业教育的特点。长期以来,高职教育基本没有形成具有高职特色的学业评价方式,背离了高职的培养目标。在分析当前高职教育评价方式弊端的基础上,以国际经济与贸易专业为例,试图探索以该专业培养目标为依据的学业评价方案。     

高等学校人文教育缺失的省思

近年来,我国高等教育发展迅猛,大众化的目标已经实现。但与此同时,在高等教育发展中所反映出来的人文教育缺失的问题却不能小视。人文教育缺失主要源于对科学教育理念的过分关注,而这样一种教育理念并不能代表高等教育的真正目的。因此,在高等教育迅速发展的今天,必须重视树立人文教育理念,使人文教育"归位",从而实现我国高等教育的健康发展。

Executive power and scaled-up gender subtexts in Australian entrepreneurial universities

Deputy Vice Chancellor and Pro Vice Chancellor positions have proliferated in response to the global, corporatised university landscape [Scott, G., S. Bell, H. Coates, and L. Grebennikov. 2010. “Australian Higher Education Leaders in Times of Change: The Role of Pro Vice Chancellor and Deputy Vice Chancellor.” Journal of Higher Education Policy and Management 32 (4): 401–418]. Senior leadership is the sphere where academic and management identities are negotiated and values around the role of the university are decided. This paper examines the changing and gendered nature of the senior leadership setting and its implications for diversity in and of university leadership. The analysis draws from a three-year empirical study funded by the Australian Research Council on leadership in Australian universities. It focuses on executive leaders in three universities – one which is research-intensive, the second, in a regional site, and the third, university of technology. The article argues that the university landscape and its management systems are being restructured in gendered ways. It utilises the notion of organisational gender subtexts to make explicit how gender works through structural and cultural reform.     

新时代大学生领导力心理表征与现状解析——基于安徽、山东、江苏、重庆等地1634名高校学生的调查与分析

大学生是我国培养具有全球竞争力人才的重要构成部分,是新时代背景下人才资源的前瞻性开发和储备。基于安徽、山东等多所高校1634名大学生领导力心理表征及发展状况的调查分析,发现当代大学生自我开发的主动性和积极性还不够,整体的领导力素质偏低,建议高校应重视大学领导力教育,以覆盖面更广的教育方式对更多学生展开领导力培养。     

Becoming an independent field: Societal pressures, state, and professions

This paper inquires about the conditions that enable the rise of new applied undergraduate fields in American universities and colleges. After identifying high-growth fields since 1950, the paper traces their professional development from an embryonic stage until universities and colleges started offering bachelor’s degrees in those fields. The experiences of the six fields of this study show that although pressures for academic differentiation were evident, governmental intervention was ultimately crucial. Qualitative evidence indicates that the independence of a new field hinges on the interaction of four factors: societal pressures, state intervention, academic resourcefulness of the field, and professional institutional processes.     

大众化背景下大学使命的重新审视

我国高等教育大众化过程需要解决四方面的问题:理解高等教育规模扩张的本原,加强人文素质教育,平衡优秀与平等的关系,协调大学与政府、市场间的关系。所有这些都要以明析高等教育的根本使命和目标如何定位的问题为前提。在任何社会形态里,没有只有一种类型的大学、大学只有惟一使命的情况。现代大学的根本使命依然是把传统的智慧和时代的思想传递给未来的一代,而领导人训练、创造新知识、高层次专业训练、特定社会高雅文化的培养、社会既定道德的传承以及社会的改造等都应该只是成为大学的“附加功能”。一定要使学生和公众理解大学不是提供获利的计谋和就业单位的场所,而现代大学最终和最基本的使命应该是要激发他们理性的光辉和力量,培养他们坚持长远地、全面地看待个人、社会与历史的发展所需要的能力。
