Access to postsecondary education through sign language interpreting

Despite the importance of sign language interpreting for many deaf students, there is surprisingly little research concerning its effectiveness in the classroom. The limited research in this area is reviewed, and a new study is presented that included 23 interpreters, 105 deaf students, and 22 hearing students. Students saw two interpreted university-level lectures, each preceded by a test of prior content knowledge and followed by a post-lecture assessment of learning. A variety of demographic and qualitative data also were collected. Variables of primary interest included the effects of a match or mismatch between student interpreting preferences (interpreting vs. transliteration) and the actual mode of interpreting, student-interpreter familiarity, and interpreter experience. Results clarify previous contradictory findings concerning the importance of student interpreting preferences and extend earlier studies indicating that deaf students acquire less than hearing peers from interpreted college-level lectures. Issues relating to access and success in integrated academic settings are discussed as they relate to relations among student characteristics, interpreter characteristics, and educational settings.     

中西文化差异之根源--兼析两种时空观对文化的影响

中西文化比较,著述甚丰,然大都皆是罗列中西文化异同之处及民族性格、行为的不同表现,很少在表象的背后进行进一步的追问和反思:同样是地球上的万物之灵,为何思想、行为有如此巨大差异?本文试图从时空这一本体角度对造成中西文化差异的现象进行考问和剖析,以期获得较新的解答。

漫谈化学课堂心理环境

课堂心理环境是指在课堂教学中影响学生认识效率的师生心理互动环境，它是由学生学的心理环境，教师教的心理环境构成的。课堂心理环境融洽还是冷漠，活跃还是沉闷，将对整个课堂教学过程产生积极或者消极影响。为此，教师就要投入、倾注一定的情感，上课伊始就要展现、演绎教材内蕴含的情感因素，激发学生的学习情趣，启发学生善于探究，鼓励学生获得成功的体验，处理好课堂教学的动与静、冷与热、宽与严的关系，使课堂心理环境始终处于融洽和谐、稳定持久的状态。

淡谈转化初中教学学业不良学生的策略

随着现在九年义务教育的实旌，作为广大农村初中来说，一般初中生源普遍较差，数学学业不良学生的比例较大。在重视大面积提高教育质量的今天，如何转化数学学业不良学生便成为我们山区数学教师普遍关注的课题。[第一段]     

Flow Field of Circulating Fluidized Bed Reactor with Venturi Inlet Configuration

Different two-equation k-ε models were used to simulate the gas flow field generated by a new type of circulating fluidized bed reactor with venturi gas distributor. The numerical results were compared with the experimental data. It has been shown that the simulation results from the standard k-ε model have the best match with the experimental data. Based on this model, the gas flow field in the venturi diffuser and riser was analyzed by the concept of velocity nonuniformity and dead zone percentage. Both the nonuniformity of gas velocity and the dead zone percentage reach the maximum at the venturi outlet due to the effect of the vortex. At the same time, it provides a good platform for the further optimization of the inlet configuration of circulating fluidized bed reactor.
