论作为童年境遇的网络文化

网络文化是一种建立在数字技术之上的文化，一种将世界进行抽象编码而又重新构造的文化。网络文化对儿童和少年的影响不可忽视，但对青少年来说，最具影响力的是网络歌曲、网络游戏、网络交友和网络文学等几种亚形态。网络文化对儿童成长有积极的影响，但它也不是完全正向的。     

"三喻文化"与成人教育探论

米德从文化传递的不同方式出发,将人类文化分为后喻文化、同喻文化和前喻文化三种类型,并阐述了不同文化类型中相应的教育模式。具体就成人教育而言,后喻文化对应着后喻式成人教育,同喻文化对应着同喻式成人教育,前喻文化则对应着前喻式成人教育。人类个体发展以及社会发展的趋向都表明,在后喻式、同喻式和前喻式成人教育模式融合共存的前提下,前喻式成人教育的发展更值得我们关注和期待。     

论文化类型与教师权威

美国文化人类学家米德把人类文化分为三种类型:后喻文化、同喻文化、前喻文化。教育是文化传承的特殊载体,作为教育权威的集中体现者,教师权威必然受到文化类型的规限。后者对教师的传统权威、知识权威、感召权威有很大影响。传统权威即是长期的传统因素形成的教师的职业权威,知识权威就是教师专业所长形成的专业权威,感召权威即教师个人内在情感因素形成的精神权威。     

后喻文化时代教师权威论

当今社会是典型的后喻文化时代,传统教师权威遭到后喻文化的消解,表现为:教师传统的知识权威、道德权威和法理权威正在消解。教师权威的消解不利于社会主流价值观的代际传递,不利于青少年的社会化,不利于现代学校教育教学的实施。现代教师权威的重建迫在眉睫,包括教师的知识权威、道德权威和法理权威的重建。其中,教师道德权威的重建在后喻文化时代尤显重要。     

新媒体时代的后喻文化特征及其对思想教育的启示

新媒体具有分众传播的独有特性和交互传播的显著优势,长辈文化权、进一步遭遇消解,晚辈”文化反哺”能力明显增强,年轻一代同辈群体圈子极大延展.思想教育工作者应当在观念上更加自觉摒弃权威主义倾向和专制主义作风,在技术手段上更加熟悉新旧媒体的各种功能特性,提升校园传媒的文化感召力.     

论文化类型与教师权威

美国化人类学家米德把人类化分为三种类型：后喻化、同喻化、前喻化。教育是化传承的特殊戢体，作为教育权威的集中体现，教师权威必然受到化类型的规限。化类型对教师的传统权威、知识权威、感召权威有很大影响。传统权威即是长期的传统因素形成的教师的职业权威，知识权威就是教师专业所长形成的专业权威，感召权威即教师个人内在情感因素形成的精神权威。     

信息对称环境下家庭教育的后喻文化特征

在简单介绍信息对称的基础上,分析了信息对称环境下家庭教育的后喻文化特征,弗构建了后喻文化时代家庭教育的新框架。     

信息对称环境下家庭教育的后喻文化特征

信息网络化使每个人获取信息的机会变得平等,这促使后喻文化时代迅速到来。信息对称环境下家庭教育的后喻文化特征表现为：知识占有地位的变化;思想观念影响力的变化;“文化反哺”广泛呈现。后喻文化时代家庭教育应构建新的框架：更新教养观念,消除数字鸿沟;善于倾听,当好“精神园丁”;允许青少年扮演家庭角色;创建学习型家庭。     

商业文化精神与当代童年形象塑造——兼论中国当代儿童文学的艺术革新

20世纪70年代末以来的中国儿童文学经历了基础性的艺术话语变迁,在这一过程中,商业文化话语的影响不容忽视。从20世纪90年代起,中国城市生活题材儿童文学作品中的童年形象塑造越来越显示出商业文化精神的影响,它主要表现在儿童文学中童年形象的"日常化"、"肉身化"和"成人化"趋向。这类童年形象是对于传统儿童文学童年美学的一次积极和意义重大的解放,但它还有待于转化为对当代社会童年命运的更为深刻的思考。     

后喻文化与家庭教育

中华传统文化历史源远流长,博大精深,是中华民族的重要凝聚力。中华民族向来重视家庭教育,因此也出现了《弟子规》《三字经》等经典教育著作。然而在竞争激烈的当今社会,深受后喻文化的影响,家庭教育也出现了一些不良的现象,产生了消极作用。针对如何有力的弘扬优秀传统文化、树立正确的家庭教育观,本文做出了分析。     

文化学习与幼儿教育

幼儿应该学什么?什么时候开始学?如何才能学得好?我怎样才能知道我已经回答了上述三个问题?第一个问题主要是关于课程的目标与目的,第二个问题是关于如何看待儿童长远发展问题,第三个问题是关于如何贯彻课程计划,第四个问题是关于评估。这四个问题是所有打算制定幼儿教育课程的人必须回答的。本文对这四个问题作了初步讨论。     

Early childhood education in India: History,trends, issues,and achievements

The changes in the social and economic structure of India have intensified the need for universal early childhood education. The formidable challenges before the Indian Government are: to provide high quality early childhood education programs; to preserve indigenous practices such as multilinguality, family/community involvement, participation of older children as caretakers of their younger siblings; and to provide early childhood education to all children despite serious financial constraints. This article presents a brief overview of the traditional childrearing practices in India, chronicles government initiatives in early childhood education, describes the range of programs available in India, and identifies goals that will shape the future of early childhood programs in India. Portions of this article will appear in Isenberg, J.P., & Jalongo, M.R. (Eds.). (1997, in press).Trends and issues in early childhood: Challenges, controversies, and insights.

Early childhood education programs in Kenya: challenges and solutions

Early childhood education in Kenya serves the critical purpose of preparing young children for primary education. Notwithstanding the associated benefits for society as a whole, the government of Kenya is involved minimally. Indeed, parents are responsible for planning, developing and managing different early childhood programs. Consequently, problems such as funding and lack of program consistency are common. Because early childhood programs are essential, the government should be involved actively in the development and implementation process.     

幼儿教育如何出现小学化倾向及其应对策略

由于传统教育思想对人们根深蒂固的影响,很多人认为孩子的发展要赢在起跑线上,很多幼儿园,尤其是私立幼儿园对孩子的培养有很浓的小学化教育的倾向,孩子在接受超前教育是以丧失学习兴趣为代价的,违背了教学中幼教原则。本文将会对幼儿教育过程中小学化倾向进行分析,提出问题的解决方案,还给孩子们一个无忧的童年。     

Early childhood practice and refrains of complexity

Early childhood practice has often been described as complex in both policy documents and research literature; however, less attention has been given to exploring the nature and consequences of complexity in early childhood practice. At a time of intense policy attention in many national contexts, there is the potential for closing down, as well as for opening up conceptualisations of early childhood practice. To help keep possibilities open for multiple conceptualisations of practice, in this paper, we explore how complexity works and what it produces in early childhood practice assemblages. To do this, we draw on data fragments from research with 10 early childhood educators in NSW, Australia, and read these data with concepts from Deleuze and Guattari. We suggest four ways that our readings help articulate, and contribute to understandings of the complexity of early childhood practice.     

Early childhood education and care educators supporting parent-child relationships: a systematic literature review

Building strong relationships between children and parents is vital for children’s social and emotional development. A majority of children attend early childhood education and care (ECEC) settings where they experience a range of relationships (educator–child, educator–parent, parent–child). Educators build relationships with children and parents, yet their influence on parent–child relationships is not well understood. Therefore, an evaluation of interventions/programs designed to promote parent–child relationships in ECEC settings (long day care, occasional care and preschool) and a range of settings (play groups, community groups and health centres) was conducted. The search revealed 21 peer-reviewed studies and seven interventions: two conducted in ECEC settings and five in a range of parent–child support settings. All studies reported intervention efficacy, yet none examined educators’ influence on parent–child relationships. Investigation into current educator practices is recommended to ensure educators are supported to promote and nurture parent–child relationships, consequently strengthening children’s social and emotional development.     

Early childhood education and care: politics,policies and possibilities

This paper considers some of the current knowledge about our understanding of and provision for early childhood internationally. It looks at its relative importance, offers a short overview of research and terminology, outlines a global perspective (the big picture) and provides a brief summary of the current South Australian policy and position.     

Schematising activities in early childhood education

The purpose of this study was to determine the importance of introducing schematising to children in early childhood and to determine whether schematising can be taught to children. This was done using a longitudinal, quantitative study with a quasi-experimental design (N = 133). In this study, the use of schematising was taught to an experimental group of children to determine if it is possible to realise significantly improved results in schematising tasks for an experimental group in comparison to a control group of children who were not taught schematising. Pupils in the experimental group demonstrated significantly better results on schematising, which cannot be explained by maturation. In our future research, we will investigate the mathematical performances of these experimental and control groups in the next grade of the primary school curriculum.     

Behind the starting line: school capacity building in early childhood education

This paper describes the process of school capacity building in Hong Kong's early childhood education at a time when there was a quest for quality education. A local preschool was selected for the study, which took part in a university–school support programme through which consultancy was hired from a university to provide school-based support. An action research approach was chosen in the research design. The process of building capacity was examined in the selected preschool over a year. The findings indicated that the preschool went through a process of capacity building, from the status quo ante, through the exploration stage to the initial implementation stage of change. Restructuring and reculturing were emerging in the change process, with the support of the school consultants.     

Analyzing teacher narratives in early childhood garden-based education

Learning gardens can provide dynamic learning and developmental experiences for young children. This case study of 12 early childhood teachers explores how teachers describe (1) learning across numerous school readiness domains and (2) how to support this learning by promoting opportunities for autonomy, relatedness, and competence. Participants worked at a university-affiliated early education program with a learning garden in the midwestern United States. Data included 19 narrative, photo-elicitation interviews during two growing seasons. Iterative qualitative analyses informed the creation of a Gourd Tee-Pee Model that describes learning across multiple domains and integrates self-determination theory into early childhood garden education. This framework can inform the design and evaluation of early childhood garden education programs.
