浅议物理学在应用型本科院校建设与发展中的作用

为探讨物理学在应用型本科院校建设和发展中的作用,首先从物理学学科性质出发,结合当前国内应用型本科院校物理学面临的机遇和挑战,简要阐述了物理学在我校优势学科进一步发展过程中所起的推动和促进作用。同时结合我校校情,提出了我校物理学学科发展的一些具体思路。     

汉语常用学科名称词溯源

汉语中一些常用的学科名称词所表达的概念大部分是外来的,但其本身是否外来词,值得仔细研究。这些词包括数学、几何、物理、化学、逻辑学、经济学等。     

学生对静电感应理解的初步研究

通过问卷调查和访谈,分析了学生对静电感应概念的理解,并把这些理解划分成三种类型。     

谈中学物理课堂教学策略的制定和选择

目前关于教学策略的研究还停留在理论探讨阶段,真正对一线教师有用的系统的学科教学策略的研究不多,而这恰恰又是他们所需要的。从教学目标、教学内容、学生情况、教师特点和教学条件等方面说明物理课堂教学设计过程中教学策略的制定和选择显,旨在为中学物理课堂教学提供一些参考依据。     

由“死”观“生”的老年人死亡教育研究

中国是世界上老龄化人口最多、增长最快的国家之一,老年问题日益成为人们关注的焦点。而科学的应对死亡,是老年人面临的严峻现实,死亡教育对于老年人显得尤为重要。本文在理清死亡教育内涵的基础和前提下,基于其由"死"向"生"的教育真义,探究我国老年人死亡教育面对的难题,并提出在积极老龄化理念下,保障老年人生活的尊严和死亡的尊严,把老年人作为一种资源,积极引导老年人热爱生活。     

吴健雄国际声誉折射的“吴健雄精神”

20世纪杰出的物理学家吴健雄用实验证实了李政道、杨振宁提出的弱相互作用中宇称不守恒假说。后李政道、杨振宁藉此摘得1957年的诺贝尔物理学奖桂冠,而吴健雄则无缘诺奖。尽管如此,这并不能掩盖吴健雄在科学领域作出的贡献：在科学研究中,她始终抱着一颗热爱科学、投身科学的心,不畏艰难、细致严谨,实验设计富有创造,并体现了正义的科学伦理道德观;在研究之外,她关心教育,致力于改变社会对女性的偏见。     

社会治安的非线性动态物理模型研究

提出了一个社会治安问题的改进型模型，并进行了数值模拟．其结果显示了该模型的演化趋势，揭示了社会治安状况在好、坏之间的转换规律．     

DIIGO在大学物理实验课前预习中的应用

课前预习是物理实验课程的一个先导,是不可或缺的一部分,预习结果的好坏对实验操作过程有很大的影响作用。文章将引入DIIGO来说明如何应用DIIGO使同学们能更好的进行课前预习,真正达到预习的目的。     

Teaching and Learning Physics in a 1:1 Laptop School

1:1 laptop programs, in which every student is provided with a personal computer to use during the school year, permit increased and routine use of powerful, user-friendly computer-based tools. Growing numbers of 1:1 programs are reshaping the roles of teachers and learners in science classrooms. At the Denver School of Science and Technology, a public charter high school where a large percentage of students come from low-income families, 1:1 laptops are used often by teachers and students. This article describes the school’s use of laptops, the Internet, and related digital tools, especially for teaching and learning physics. The data are from teacher and student surveys, interviews, classroom observations, and document analyses. Physics students and teachers use an interactive digital textbook; Internet-based simulations (some developed by a Nobel Prize winner); word processors; digital drop boxes; email; formative electronic assessments; computer-based and stand-alone graphing calculators; probes and associated software; and digital video cameras to explore hypotheses, collaborate, engage in scientific inquiry, and to identify strengths and weaknesses of students’ understanding of physics. Technology provides students at DSST with high-quality tools to explore scientific concepts and the experiences of teachers and students illustrate effective uses of digital technology for high school physics.     

Gender Differences in Science: An Expertise Perspective

The purpose of this paper is to propose a new approach to research on gender differences in science that uses the work on expertise in science as a framework for understanding gender differences. Because gender differences in achievement and participation in the sciences are largest in physics, the focus of this review is on physics. The nature of expertise is first discussed and a framework that focuses on factors that influence the emergence of expertise in physics is presented. This is used to interpret what is known about gender differences in science, particularly physics. Next, the potential contributions of the research on gender differences to our understanding of expertise are discussed. Using what is learned from these two areas of research, recommendations are made for future research examining gender differences in physics. It is suggested that such an approach be used for other areas of science, such as chemistry, where large gender differences in achievement and participation also exist.
