新一代航天飞机即将起飞

他们是活着的“神奇四侠”，他们就在我们中间。猜测他们是谁应该是一件非常有意思的事。他们现在都是20多岁的年纪，都聪慧而富有理想。他们也许是一名工科的学生，正绞尽脑汁地准备自己的毕业论文；也许是一名飞行员，正驾驶着战斗机在空中飞翔；也许是一名实习医生，正在急诊室里紧张地忙碌着。再过12年左右的时间，他们会坐在位于火箭顶端的乘员舱里，承受着500吨固体燃料带来的4.5g的过载，上升到7.5万米的空中，然后由第二级火箭将他们推到近地轨道。二级火箭在近地轨道上会与另一枚火箭对接，这枚火箭会将他们送到月球轨道。     

Effects of Counselor's Ordinal Position When Involved in Role Play Practice in Triads

To investigate the effects of the order of being the counselor when involved in role-play practice, 36 novice trainees were assigned to counseling triads and then to the levels of ordinal position—counselor first, second, or third. Each participant also served as a client and as an observer within the triad. No difference among the three ordinal positions was found in the trainees' abilities to produce reflection of feeling responses. Similarly, there were no differences between those trainees who functioned as as observers before being the role-play counselor. There was a significant positive linear trend, however, for ordinal position (i.e., the accuracy of the trainees' reflection of feeling responses steadily improved from first counselor role play to third counselor role play). These results are discussed from a social-learning theory perspective.     

A Systems Approach for Implementing an Affective Education Program

This article describes a model for implementing an affective education program which was developed using systems analysis techniques. The following seven independent and interdependent functions are identified and described: obtain community involvement, conduct needs assessment, specify program goals, select program materials, prepare for program installation, implement affective education program, and evaluate affective education program. The use of experts and an affective education advisory board is recommended to facilitate program implementation. In addition, assessment techniques and a team approach for remediation are described.

Environmental Education: Arguing the case for multiple approaches

This paper develops existing arguments about the need to rethink ways in which environmental education is conceptualised, interpreted and enacted by schools, teachers and students working within their communities. In doing this, it critiques what it sees as the narrowing and constraining influence that socially critical theory has exerted over the field, and calls for multiple approaches, carefully and communally deliberated on, in order to deliver the (environmental) educational goals deemed appropriate and necessary by schools and communities. Such an approach, it is argued, will likely be cross-disciplinary and multi-faceted in that it will be informed by a combination of traditions and ideological persuasions which together will offer more than any one of them could alone.
