Using critical literacy to explore genetics and its ethical, legal, and social issues with in-service secondary teachers

The described interdisciplinary course helped a mixed population of in-service secondary English and biology teacher-participants increase their genetics content knowledge and awareness of Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications (ELSI) that arose from discoveries and practices associated with the Human Genome Project. This was accomplished by applying a critical literacy approach that allows people develop cognitive skills such that they are able to "read the world" (Wink, 2004). The approach is one that permits readers to go beyond the literal text to examine what is present as well as what is missing as it relates to issues of equity and fairness. Becoming critically literate enabled these teacher-participants to challenge the subtle attitudes, values, and beliefs conveyed by a range of written and oral texts. The teacher-participants in this course improved their critical literacy skills by actively reading, critically writing about, and using evidence to support their conclusions about issues arising from advances in human genetics. A biologist, a linguist, and an educator collaboratively designed and taught the course. The personalized focus on the integration of thoughtful reading and writing in this class enhanced the teacher-participants' (n = 16) professional and intellectual development and will potentially improve learning in their biology and English classrooms in the future.     

中部地区高职院校发展案例分析

通过采用抽样调查法对中部地区的20所高职院校进行调研,调查了解到,在国家大力发展高职教育的背景下,广大中部地区的高职院校在发展模式、办学模式及人才培养模式等方面具有明显的特色和亮点,同时在发展过程中仍然存在许多问题,面临较为严峻的挑战。     

Gold 型Bent函数的两个注记

Bent 函数一直是密码学研究中的重要课题,如何判断给出的布尔函数是否为bent函数是必须要解决的问题.通过对Gold型函数中指数的分析,得到了Gold型函数成为bent函数的充要条件,此充要条件是Leander文献中定理的部分推广,用该结论判断bent函数更加简便.同时还讨论了多个迹函数之和成为bent函数的一个充要条件.     

科学发展观对传统哲学的继承与超越

从传统哲学的视角探讨科学发展观的精神资源,是一次传统与现代超越时空的对话.传统哲学是科学发展观的源头活水,是其内在的历史根据,科学发展观则是对传统哲学的有机整合和与时俱进的发展.在继承传统哲学的优秀成果的基础上,科学发展观也完成了其时代性超越.其中,统筹兼顾的根本方法是对传统哲学中阴阳辩证思维方式的继承和发展,"以人为本"思想源于中华文明的"以民为本"思想,可持续发展观是对"天人合一"思想的历史继承与理性超越.

黄檗文化概念界定的回顾与考辩

准确界定黄檗文化的概念是相关研究的重要前提。 将黄檗文化理解为佛教文化和福清地方文化,有很大的局限性?而以黄檗宗为黄檗文化内核,强调其已成为综合性文化形态的观点,则较严谨而科学。 黄檗文化具有浓厚的华侨文化色彩,又实现了对华侨文化的超越,是中国古代海丝文化的重要组成部分和高端形态,也是封建时代后期中国优秀传统文化一次极大规模的对外传播,展现了中华文化的强大生命力。     

从二元组合到三维一体——在新的视角下对高校贫困生的再认定

三维一体认定标准是在传统的政府和高校二元组合认定的基础上,融入新的元素,同时加强了国家的指导职能,强化了政府的主导功能、细化了高校的实施功能,利用三个不同的支点组成的新锥体。它由点组面,点面结合,相互补充,构建了一个国家、政府和高校三维的科学认定模式;它摈弃了传统二元组合认定方式因主观因素带来的负面效应,实现了学生信息的网络化、认定标准的科学化、认定人员的专业化、认定制度的规范化、政策宣传的广泛化;它以国家宏观指导为主体,以政府和高校护卫两翼,形成了"一体两翼五化"的认定构想,为高校贫困生认定工作提供了新的思路。     

Iterative method on well bore boundary in numerical modeling of variably saturated flow

An iterative method was developed for incorporating the well bore boundary into the finite difference model of water flow in variably saturated porous media. Six cases were presented involving groundwater pumping or injection to demonstrate the advantages of the iterative method over the traditional method. For the iterative method, the total flux gradually approached the well discharge and the flux profile was non-uniform. And the iterative method took into account the variation of well bore water table. Compared to the traditional method, the iterative method can simulate the variably saturated flow caused by pumping or injection more realistically.     

基于工作流和角色协同的毕业论文管理系统的设计与实现

高校毕业论文是一项时间跨度长、程序复杂的系统工程。基于工作流和角色协同的软件设计思想,开发了高校毕业论文管理系统。系统采用Viscual Studio 2008+SQL SERVER 2005开发,实现了不同角色用户按照一定的规则和流程来执行毕业论文任务。目前已在赣南师范学院部分学院推广使用,提高了教学管理质量与效率。     

LIS curriculum in French-speaking West Africa in the age of ICTs: The case of Benin and Senegal

LIS training programme in Africa date from early independence period. In French-speaking West African area, few countries have an LIS school. The existing schools have been created in partnership with either an international organization or a northern country. The curriculum delivered is not always updated as in developed countries. The main objective of this article is to measure the gap between LIS curriculum as actually delivered in developed and developing countries in the age of the information and communication technologies (ICTs). A couple of schools were chosen—English and French-speaking area—from Northern America and Western Europe; their curriculum served as basis for evaluating those in West African French-speaking countries. The conclusion that can be drawn from the study is that LIS curriculum in Africa has changed less since the schools’ first creation and ICTs are not present as in Western countries. This trend brings out the problem of the curriculum pertinence and the competitiveness of the graduate students in the international employment market.
