阅读过程心理分析及对英语阅读教学的启示

阅读是外语学习的一个主要途径,而阅读理解本身则是极其复杂的认知过程。本文利用现代心理语言学的研究成果,概述了阅读活动中的三种模式,分析了这三种模式对外语教学的影响,并由此提出教师应指导学生在阅读中既要以阅读材料为本,重视语言文字的解码过程,又要积极发挥学生作为读者的主观能动性,运用阅读策略,激活头脑中的相关图式,综合运用语言知识与图式知识,提高阅读能力和语言运用能力。     

Examining practicing teachers’ perceptions of technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) pathways: a structural equation modeling approach

The seven constructs of the technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) framework has been widely adopted as a theoretical basis for understanding the scope of teachers’ information and communication technology (ICT) expertise. Despite this, very little is understood about the inter-relationships between these constructs, especially how these relationships are related to teachers’ TPACK. As a result, the theory–practice nexus of this framework remains weak. In this study, a structural equation model based on Mishra and Koehler’s TPACK framework was developed to describe the TPACK perceptions of 455 practicing teachers in Singapore. The study shows that teachers, perceived TPACK to be formulated from the direct effects of technological knowledge and pedagogical knowledge. They also perceived these knowledge sources to contribute to the development of technological pedagogical knowledge and technological content knowledge, which also contributed to their TPACK. In these teachers’ conceptions of TPACK, however, the effects of content knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge were not evident. The implications of these relationships to the design of teacher professional development in ICT are discussed.     

Identifying Science Teachers’ Perceptions of Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK)

The application of information and communication technology in instruction is highly emphasized in the contemporary education of science teachers. This paper hence aims to explore science teachers’ perceptions of technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) addressing teachers’ perceptions of the affordances of technology application in instruction. A total of 222 pre- and in-service science teachers in Singapore were surveyed. Structural equation models analysis was utilized to examine the model of TPACK involving the seven factors of technological knowledge (TK), pedagogical knowledge (PK), content knowledge (CK), technological content knowledge (TCK), technological pedagogical knowledge (TPK), pedagogical content knowledge (PCK), as well as synthesized knowledge of technology, pedagogy, and content (TPC). The results confirm the seven-factor model and indicate that the science teachers’ perceived TPC significantly and positively correlated with all the other TPACK factors. This paper further reveals the relationships between the science teachers’ perceptions of TPACK and their demographic characteristics such as teaching experience, gender, and age. The findings indicate that female science teachers perceive higher self-confidence in pedagogical knowledge but lower self-confidence in technological knowledge than males. Further, female in-service science teachers’ perceptions of TK, TPK, TCK, and TPC significantly and negatively correlate with their age.     

城镇化进程中职业教育资源配置问题及对策研究

城镇化进程中的劳动力升级和转型需要职业教育来完成,职业教育资源是实施职业教育的基础,职业教育资源配置的良好与否直接影响城镇化的进程。城镇化进程中职业教育资源配置的突出问题为资源总量不足、资源配置失衡、农民工职业培训缺乏、农业职业教育落后等,为改善资源配置以促进城镇化进程,加强资金投入、人才培养市场化、完善农民工培训体系、发展农业职业教育是为对策。     

心功能指数评定标准的研究

本课题是经国家体委全国选材中心组专家提议,由湖北省体科所牵头,全国10个省市参加协作研究的简易心功能(即30秒30次蹲起机能试验)评定标准的研究。目的是为运动员科学选材、机能评定、体质评价提供较为可靠的参考资料。在对全国10个省市2223人按统一的测试细则进行测试后,通过数据审核、正态检验、曲线拟合、离差法等数据处理方法,进行统计计算分析,制定出适合我国青少年儿童生长发育规律的评定标准。研究还表明,这种机能试验在1岁生物年龄为界之间及性别间没有显著性差别。是否这种机能试验在负荷强度、时间上均还不够,需要做进一步的研究。
