服务于学习化社会的教育资源共享——论陕西远程教育教学资源库构建的价值

学习化社会是一个以终身教育体系为基础,能够充分满足全民终身学习多样化需求的社会。陕西省远程教育教学资源库的构建对建立学习化社会具有极为重要的价值,它能整合全省优质资源,实现教育资源最大限度地共享;它将优势资源与区域发展相结合,促进本土特色教育资源与经济的发展;它可以为学习化社会搭建教学资源平台;此外,远程学习不仅能满足全体社会成员的学习需要,而且也实现了学习者个别化学习的需求,成为学习化社会的重要途径。     

Epistemological resources for thought experimentation in science learning

Thought Experiments (TEs) are reasoning processes that are based on 'results' of an experiment carried out in thought. What is the validity of an experiment- that has not been actually executed- for knowledge about the physical world? What are the features that make it distinctive and how do we integrate it into learning environments to support such thought processes? This study suggests that a thought experiment draws on three epistemological resources: conceptual-logical inferences, visual imagery and bodily-motor experience. We start by stating how students' TEs are related to recent research on learning science and then proceed to describe the nature of TEs. The central part of the paper deals with cognitive theories and empirical examples of visual imagery and bodily imagery. It also deals with how these enable implicit knowledge about the world to be retrieved. Students may have, but are not aware of, such knowledge for it is hidden when learning is only based on formal representations. We show that imagination is structured, goal-oriented, based on prior experiential imagery and internally coherent. Students can, for example, mentally rotate objects at constant velocity. Students can 'zoom in and out' to inspect imaginary situations, transfer objects, predict paths of imaginary moving objects and imagine the impact of forces on mechanical systems. We show that the TEs are powerful because of these capabilities. We further claim that these are not exploited by school learning environments and offer a first step towards understanding imagery in science learning.     

基于网络学习社区的德育资源建设

在信息技术渗透到社会各个领域的今天,学校现代教育技术的充分利用,全方位的信息化网络教育已是基础教育改革和发展的重要内容。信息技术对中小学德育工作同样起到很大促进作用,不仅扩大了德育空间,而且丰富了德育教材及资料的形式、促进了德育手段的现代化、加速了德育主体的个性化等等。学校德育工作如何借助现代教育技术突破瓶颈,体现德育内化和学生自育的过程,求得新的发展空间,增强德育的针对性和实效性,德育信息化已成为当前需要探索的重要课题。     

开发期刊文献信息为研究性学习服务

研究性学习的开展,要求高校图书馆尤其是期刊阅读方面提供更多、更新、更快的信息。要求改变当前期刊阅览中普遍存在的“守着学生看杂志,守着杂志看学生”的管理方式和只重管理、不重服务的工作思路及运行机制,建立期刊文献信息资源服务系统将使这种状态彻底改观,从而推动高校研究性学习深入持久地开展下去。

Coteaching: Creating resources for learning and learning to teach chemistry in urban high schools

How do new teachers become confident and competent while they are interns in inner‐city neighborhood schools challenged by many problems, often associated with economic shortfalls and cultural differences between the students and their teachers? Many science teacher education programs place a lot of emphasis on the planning stages of curriculum. But considerable discrepancies emerge between planned and lived curriculum, particularly in inner‐city, comprehensive high schools, and especially in classrooms that honor student interests and culture as starting points for learning. Previous research showed that coteaching provides opportunities for learning to teach even though the lived curriculum emerges often in unpredictable ways from the dialectic of collective (teacher and students) agency and structure. The present study allowed us to understand the underlying processes: the presence of a coteacher increases access to social and material resources, and thereby increases opportunities for actions that otherwise would not occur. Greater teaching opportunities provide newcomers with greater opportunities of learning to teach. ? 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Res Sci Teach 41: 882‐904, 2004.
