我们

曾经是,飘摇的,飘零的,孤苦的,孤寂的,狼狈的,劳累的,苦笑的,噙泪的.一代,一辈. 如今是,炫耀的,喧嚣的,张扬的,张狂的,奢华的,单薄的,艳丽的,苍白的.一瞬,一夕.     

寻找

那些年,我一直活在惊恐的寻找里。雨后的黄昏,村庄的空气中浮动着水洗过的亮色,屋顶,树梢,山脊,都被抹上了一层炫目的金辉。正是牧归时分,对面的山坡上,成群的牛羊从坡上俯冲下来,像江流在奔泻,轰隆隆,轰隆隆,那些舞动的蹄子,大的,小的,轻的,重的,单腕的,双瓣的,横踩,直踏,一脚脚,都踩在村庄忙得有些错乱的神经上。     

走出课堂,让语言奔跑

正我们知道,我们的孩子,不喜欢读书,不喜欢教室,不喜欢学校的不少。学生的作文干巴巴的,没有生气,没有灵气,没有趣味,像枯萎的花朵,像生锈的铁钉。可怜的母语,可怜的语文,可怜的阅读,可怜的作文,可怜的孩子们。我们知道,孩子们没有学习语文的热情。在孩子们看来,在教室里读书,老师的语言也是干巴巴的,老师不是缺乏热情,老师不是缺乏多媒体的技术,老师缺乏的是自由的心灵,准确地说,老     

金色畅想曲

早晨的阳光,是金色的阳光。金色的阳光,喷薄,热烈,灿烂。 党旗的镰斧,是金色的镰斧。金色的镰斧,光亮,璀璨,耀眼。 国旗的五星,是金色的五星。金色的五星,辉煌,富丽,庄严。 金色铸成了我们的信仰。金铸的信仰,有金色的意志,有金色的气节,有金色的韬略,有金色的理念。 我们的意志、气节、韬略、理念,是一条长长的金色链条,系着南湖,系着延安,系着北京,系着遥远;系着我党 的形象,系着国家的振兴,系着民族的命运,系着历史的召唤,系着时代的责任,系着每人的奉献。     

让水仙在心头绽放——感悟阅读的美好

有一种美,是徜徉山水,沐浴四季风光,感受春日的和风,夏日的凉阴,秋日的落霞,冬日的暖阳;有一种美,是畅游书海,领略异域风情,一览撒哈拉沙漠的浩瀚,黄土高原的空旷,伦敦大都市的繁华,俄罗斯苹果园的宁静。有一种美,是放飞心灵,洗尽世俗铅华,享受诗人的浪漫,文人的豁达,哲人的思辨,智者的从容。在经济飞速发展的今天,高压力、快节奏的生活,使人难得闲

美文美读

步入美文世界,就步入了美丽世界。不必说春花秋月,良辰美景,旷野小屋,更不必说美丽动人的英姿,至真至诚的心灵,娓娓动听的话语,碧波荡漾的旋律,就是浩瀚的沙漠,汹涌的大海,僻远的野店,孤寂的灯火,沧桑的人生,悲惨的命运,也总让我们沉醉,让我们渴望,让我们泊静,让我们沉思,让我们扼腕叹息。正是那些美丽的东西,才点燃我们渴望美、追求美、创造美的     

祖国颂

中国,像一条源远流长的河,在我心中荡漾,在我心中放歌。歌颂她的秀美,婀娜,歌颂她的伟大,巍峨,歌颂她的顽强,不屈,歌颂她的博大,广阔。她像河一样世代发展繁衍生息,她从未让无情的烈火把信念吞没,啊!这就是我们伟大的祖国——闪烁的星,流淌的河。中国,像一排无坚不摧的波,在我心中激荡,在我心中放歌。歌颂她的雄健,遒劲,歌颂她的激荡,鲜活,歌颂她的傲骨,勇敢,歌颂她的壮志,洒脱。她让几代人的梦飞翔太空,她让“中国”的名字在世界响彻,啊!这就是我们强大的祖国!东方的雄鸡,所向披靡的波。啊!我亲爱的祖国妈妈,您把青春奉献给了儿女,儿女会把…     

转变教学观念,迎接新的挑战——在新课改之前的思考

窗外日新月异,窗外天翻地覆,而我们呢,多年不变的教法,简单机械的重复,填鸭式的灌注,只为那些冰冷却权威的数字.数字的背后,是成长的艰辛,是茫然,是被动的接受.不再怀疑,不再质询,考证,快乐的学习,只是一种奢求.考试是被膨胀的机器,数字决定我们的命运,所以,一切都在继续.直到我们热情的泯灭,直到心如止水,我们所讲的只是知识的框架而已,已不再有血肉.可是,送走一届又一届,我们仍然要面对的是热血的青年,他们梦想着,渴求着,希望在人生之路上得到关注与指引.     

为生命祈祷

菜市场和生活的颜色人流。不断的人流。在县城西关的菜市场上,我站在十字路口,看那些熙攘的人群,还有声音,颜色,表情,动作,以及一切与生活有关的细节。我知道,在生活的名义下,那些热爱生活的人们,可以多么的骄傲,他们充实,平凡,忙碌,甚至连庸常也不怕。这些卑微的琐碎的生活,让他们觉得快乐,让他们尽情地暴露他们自己。他们趿拉着拖鞋,就散散漫漫地走出来,然后,随便地拣起蔬菜,看鲜嫩,讨论价钱,为一角钱费半天口舌,和卖主聊天气,谈新闻,甚至称兄道弟,最后,他们提着一大兜中意或不中意的蔬菜回家,和路上熟悉或不熟悉的人打招呼,说说笑笑,有一…

论罗蒂协同性实用主义的反哲学本性

理查德·罗蒂立足后现代主义、解构主义、文化自由主义、相对主义和后哲学文化论,建立的协同性实用主义,批判分析哲学、现象学、传统的认识论、反映论、符合论和真理观,肯定解释学的功能与教化作用,否定客观性、绝对性、永恒性和不变性,反对理性主义、科学主义和实在论,主张解构形而上学,创立无冕哲学,提倡工具主义、约定主义、实用主义、多元主义,以及心灵与社会的协同性作用。     

教学中几对矛盾的对峙与融通

教学中存在知识与文化、理论与应用、预设与生成、结果与过程、演绎与推理、证实与证伪、论证与实验等多对矛盾,这些矛盾源于各自的认识论基础不同。在教学中要正视和正确处理这些矛盾。教学应当是以知识为核心的文化教育,是以理论、预设、结果、演绎、证实、论证为主,以应用、生成、过程、证伪、实验为辅的结构系统。     

Conditions Revealed by the Use of Standardized Tests in Rural Schools

Abstract

Two hundred eighty-five twelve-year-old children were asked to list all things that thrill, delight, and make them happy. The material was arranged in separate tests for boys and girls and provided for five degrees of feelings: like much, like, don't mind, don't like, hate. The tests were given to 285 other children of the same age and background. The results were tabulated and arranged according to frequency for "like much," The items were then classified under social interests, hobbies and interests, games and amusements, home and family, dreams and ambitions, school, foods, desire to possess, health and appearance. This paper reports the children's reactions to home and family, dreams and ambitions, school, foods, desire to possess, health and appearance, and to significant sex differences. The findings indicate attitudes toward home and school.     

Decolonizing methodologies and indigenous knowledge: The role of culture,place and personal experience in professional development

This study reports findings from a 10‐day professional development institute on curricular trends involving 19 secondary mathematics and science teachers and administrators from Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Korea, Philippines, the United States, and People's Republic of China. Participants explored the roles of culture, place, and personal experience in science education through writings and group discussions. Initially, Asian participants tended to view indigenous knowledge and practices more negatively than U.S. peers. After a presentation on indigenous Hawaiian practices related to place and sustainability, they evaluated indigenous practices more positively and critiqued the absence of locally relevant science and indigenous knowledge in their national curricula. They identified local issues of traffic, air, and water quality they would like to address, and developed lessons addressing prior knowledge, place, and to a lesser extent, culture. These findings suggested critical professional development employing decolonizing methodologies articulated by indigenous researchers Abbott and Smith has the potential to raise teachers' awareness of the connections among personal and place‐based experiences, cultural practices and values, and teaching and learning. An implication was the development of a framework for professional development able to shift science instruction toward meaningful, culture, place, and problem‐based learning relevant to environmental literacy and sustainability. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Nanotechnology and Nanoscale Science: Educational challenges

Nanotechnology has been touted as the next ‘industrial revolution’ of our modern age. In order for successful research, development, and social discourses to take place in this field, education research is needed to inform the development of standards, course development, and workforce preparation. In addition, there is a growing need to educate citizens and students about risks, benefits, and social and ethical issues related to nanotechnology. This position paper describes the advancements that have been made in nanoscale science and nanotechnology, and the challenges that exist to educate students and the public about critical nanoscience concepts. This paper reviews the current research on nanotechnology education including curricula, educational programs, informal education, and teacher education. Furthermore, the unique risks, benefits and ethics of these unusual technological applications are described in relation to nanoeducation goals. Finally, we outline needed future research in the areas of nanoscience content, standards and curricula, nanoscience pedagogy, teacher education, and the risks, benefits, and social and ethical dimensions for education in this emerging field.

Fostering Faculty Collaboration in Learning Communities: A Developmental Approach

Colleges and universities are adopting learning communities to increase student learning and build cohesion. As learning communities grow in popularity, institutions need to invest in faculty development (Oates, 2001) and understand faculty experiences (Mullen, 2001). The University of Hartford created a program that prepared faculty for collaborative teaching in first-year learning communities. Faculty learned to engage in collaborative behaviors, to think outside disciplinary borders, and to employ a specific template as a heuristic for course development. Results of focus group research about the faculty experience and the impact of the experience on their pedagogy are summarized.Catherine B. Stevenson, whose M.A. and Ph.D. are from New York University, is currently an Associate Professor of English and Drama and Academic Dean of International and Honors Programs. She and her coauthors are affiliated with the University of Hartford, West Hartford, CT. Her special interests include nineteenth and twentieth century literature, curriculum reform, pedagogy, and international education. Robert L. Duran, Professor in the School of Communication, who earned his M.A. at West Virginia University and Ph.D. at Bowling Green State University, is a specialist in program evaluation, evaluation research, and research methods. Karen A. Barrett, Associate Dean of Undergraduate Studies, has an M.S. from the State University of New York at Buffalo. Her special interests include interdisciplinary general education curriculum, higher education administration, and diagnostic hematology and microbiology. Guy C. Colarulli, earned an M.A. at the University of Connecticut and a Ph.D. at The American University. He is the Associate Provost and Dean of Undergraduate Studies, whose special interests include Higher Education Administration, First-Year Experience, as well as American Government, and Politics
