试论大学校长任期

大学校长的任期和大学的发展有密切的关系,大学校长应有一个较长的任期。我国大学校长的任期较短,这在一定程度上影响了大学的发展。大学的可持续发展必须要有较长的校长任期做保障,大学校长要有自己独到的教育思想,要制定学校章程。     

学科体系的解构与行动体系的重构--职业教育课程内容序化的教育学解读

就业导向的职业教育课程内容,应以从业中实际应用的经验和策略的习得为主,以适度够用的概念和原理的理解为辅。课程内容序化的哲学思考在于:作为一种知识序列,课程内容序化的最重要的目标指向,在于如何使学习的主体——学生容易地接受这一序列。因此,课程序化的教育学思考强调的是学生对知识的构建过程,应以工作过程为参照系整合陈述性知识与过程性知识。课程不再片面强调建筑在静态学科体系之上的显性理论知识的复制与再现,而是着眼于蕴含在动态行动体系之中的隐性实践知识的生成与构建。实际上,“工作过程导向课程”的开发过程,是一个伴随学科体系的解构而凸显行动体系的重构的过程。     

教育理论的特质及其研究使命

新世纪中国的教育研究需要承担一种理论的使命,这就要求梳理教育理论的知识类型和确立其理论形态。这种理论形态,不是单一理论,而是一个理论连续统, 包括由抽象命题构成的具有反思功能的一般理论,呈现方法论要求的中层理论,表现具体经验的微观理论。它们之间不是孤立分离的,而是相互联系,彼此互动的。探讨教育理论的问题结构及其独特意义,可以认为教育理论的进步也意味着对教育条件的认识所取得的进步。

The inextricable link between sport and the press in the Victorian era: the example of the ‘Sentinel Cup’

During the Victorian era sport underwent what has been described by academics as a ‘revolution’. What began the nineteenth century as largely informal, recreational pastimes with few written rules and a small commercial fringe was transformed into a codified, commercialised, mass-spectator entertainment industry. During this period an inextricable link developed between sport and the press and both became mutually beneficial; sport provided a continuous conveyor belt of content for journalists to report whilst newspapers provided enhanced publicity and exposure in return. However, the press were not merely commentators and observers of sport and several publications took a more central role in its development and organisation. This is exemplified by the Staffordshire Sentinel, a regional newspaper that circulated across North Staffordshire and South Cheshire, which established the self-titled ‘Sentinel Cup’ in 1892. The competition was officially created to develop junior association football in the region, although key stakeholders also had other alternative motives, and it has been contested for 125 consecutive years, making it the longest continuous football cup in Britain. This paper uses the ‘Sentinel Cup’ as an exemplar of how the press became increasingly involved in sport during the Victorian era and explores the competition’s inauguration.
