理解与对话：从解释学视角解读教师评价

理解与对话是哲学解释学的中心话语，其理解现、视域融合、主体同性等思想为我们解读教师评价提供了新视角。以理解和对话为基础的教师评价，其价值由一元走向多元，评价双方由主-客对立走向主体间性，评价方法由实证走向人文，评价标准由预定走向生成，评价过程由静态走向动态，达到评价双方视域融合。     

浅议道德认知发展理论与我国道德教育改革

道德认知发展理论注重发展学生道德判断力,对西方学校道德教育产生了深刻的影响,其产生的历史背景与我国改革开放所遇到的道德困境非常相似,它对我国走向开放型的道德教育有重要的启迪作用。在发展我国学生道德判断力过程中,应着重解决好两大问题:一是确立学生在道德教育中的主体地位;二是转变教师的德育定位。     

古希腊神话：诗学与神学的二元对立

神话作为人类童年时期的学样式。因其创作主体在无意识的心理状态下不自觉的陈述而更具符合特征，显示着人类化现象和精神活动的初始形态。古希腊神知以诗意的栖居阐释着对宇宙本源与形态的哲学感悟和审美认知，在古希腊神话的宗教内涵中显示着古希腊人的终极关切。

The use of mobile devices as means of data collection in supporting elementary school students’ conceptual understanding about plants

The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of mobile learning among young learners. Specifically, we investigated whether the use of mobile devices for data collection during field trips outside the classroom could enhance fourth graders’ learning about the parts of the flower and their functions, flower pollinators and the process of pollination/fertilization, and the interrelationship between animals and plants, more than students’ use of traditional means of data collection. For this purpose, we designed a pre–post experimental design study with two conditions: one in which participants used a mobile device for data collection and another using traditional means (e.g. sketching and note-taking). The sample comprised 48 fourth graders (24 in each condition), who studied the flower, its parts, and their functions. A conceptual test was administered to assess students’ understanding before and after instruction. Moreover, the students’ science notebooks and accompanying artifacts were used as a data source for examining students’ progress during the study's intervention. The conceptual test and notebook data were analyzed statistically, whereas we used open coding for the artifacts. Findings revealed that using mobile devices for data collection enhanced students’ conceptual understanding more than using traditional means of data collection.     

The occurrence of analogies in elementary school science books

An analogy is a model drawn from one contextand used to support understanding in anothercontext. This study investigates the extent towhich analogies in instructional science booksare provided by authors. The books surveyed areavailable from commercial suppliers andintended for use in the elementary schoolclassroom with 7 to 11 year old children.Eighty texts were analysed for the presence orabsence of analogies. Forty-five of the booksoffered no analogies at all. In the remainingthirty-five books, 92 analogies were found.These were classified in line with earlier workon analogies for older students by Curtis andReigeluth (1984) and the findings arediscussed. The extent to which teachers candraw upon the analogies in such texts tosupport children's understanding isconsidered.     

How university teaching changes teachers: Affective as well as cognitive challenges

This paper argues that the teaching of a subject can change our understanding of what it means to know, to teach and learn that subject. It also argues that when our understanding is questioned and changes then academic work can become an emotionally charged endeavour. This paper reports on a study where, over a semesters teaching, around two thirds of teachers changed some aspect of their scholarly thinking or practice. These teachers were teaching a range of first and second year classes, they were not new to teaching, nor were they unfamiliar with the teaching of the subject. For approximately one third, the change in understanding was not major. It involved a change in teaching practice but it did not involve the questioning of their existing understanding of subject matter. For another third, however, the change was substantial. These teachers, in some way, questioned previously taken for granted assumptions, they re-thought aspects of the structure of the discipline or the relationship of the subject to the discipline. They also revised their ideas about how to best teach that subject and what learning the subject involved. This change invariably involved anxiety and uncertainty and in some cases this was extreme. Little attention has been paid to change in teachers understanding of subject matter and little, or no, research has focused on the emotional impact of this change. This initial exploration of these neglected aspects of university teaching suggests a rich vein for further exploration. This paper builds on previous work that has used phenomenography to examine changes in university teachers understanding of subject matter taught. An analysis of metaphor is used to explore change and to tap into the rich and complex emotional experiences that accompany this change.     

通过绿色教育促进国际理解的实践和研究

随着社会的发展，开展“国际理解教育”是学校发展的必然趋势，而将环保教育有意识地与国际理解教育相结合则是上海市第三女子中学目前努力探索的重要课题。在一系列教育活动中，学校以环保课程为依托，以学生环保社团为组织核心，与国际环保组织“Roots ＆ Shoots”、市内各类环保团体形成活动链，积极开展各级各类环保活动，在活动中为学生搭建通向世界的桥梁，加深学生乃至社会对环保的认识。     

Scaffolding 5-year-old children in Japanese kindergarten collaboratively retelling a tale

This study reports an analysis of how children in a Japanese kindergarten are scaffolded when facing the challenge of collaboratively retelling a kitsune story they have been told. What is referred to as a kitsune story is an example of a trickster tale with foxes as anthropomorphised animals. The participants were ten 5-year-old children and their teacher. Told a story by their teacher, the children were asked later to collaboratively retell it. How this retelling activity is supported – theorised in terms of the metaphor of scaffolding – is analysed on the basis of recordings. The findings show the nature of this evolving process. The conclusion is that the metaphor of scaffolding may require some contextual specification to remain a functional conceptual – and in extension, pedagogical – tool in activities fundamentally different from the activity studied in Wood, Bruner and Ross’ founding 1976 study.     

关于学校管理中公平的理解

学校管理中的公平历来是一个令所有学校的管理苦恼和被管理敏感的问题，公平应包括机会，起点，结果的公平，它是在平等自由，机会的公正平等，差别存在第三个原则的基础上建立起来的，追求公平的目的更多要从人的发展方向理解，在当前的学校管理中，公平作为一种价值取向，有着深刻的意义。
