明中晚期的徽州社会秩序及儒家伦理价值整合

明朝中晚期,徽州底层社会动荡不安。在对失序的社会进行整合的过程中,官府通过革新诉讼制度,将国家权力再次渗透到基层社会;富于士大夫精神的行政长官励精图治,抚恤受灾百姓,推行乡约,神道设教,以儒家纲常伦理价值规范社会秩序,以民间信仰约束百姓行为;乡绅牺牲自我,提倡克己复礼,整齐风俗,凝聚地方人心,维持地方秩序。儒家传统价值在时代的变局中发挥了重要的稳定作用。     

流动儿童学前教育选择:家庭社会经济背景及迁移状况的影响

流动人口子女入园难问题较为突出。本研究从家庭社会经济背景及迁移状况的视角探讨适龄流动儿童接受学前教育的选择问题。使用CFPS(2010)数据,本研究用Logit模型,估计了不同特征的流动儿童家庭为其子女选择接受学前教育的发生概率。研究发现,农业户籍、跨省迁移的家庭随迁子女入园机会更低;有教育储蓄的家庭,其随迁子女入园机会更高;而父母高学历、与子女同住等因素也会在一定程度上提高流动儿童的入园机会。户籍仍是制约流动儿童入园的关键因素。我们据此明示了相应的政策启示。     

李贽琴乐思想探赜

晚明思想家、文学家李贽在其著作《焚书?琴赋》中提出了“琴者心也”的观点,这一命题对晚明及其后的琴乐发展产生了深远影响。许多学者认为这是对儒家礼乐思想的反叛。然而,深层挖掘“琴者心也”之“心”的思想内涵并梳理历代琴论,可以发现,李贽此说并非空谷之音。“琴者心也”是顺着主流琴乐思想之外的注重古琴自身艺术特性的琴乐思想发展而来的,这种思想并非离经叛道,而是一种对僵化的琴论的内在批判,以引导琴论健康发展。     

Revisiting the occupational aspirations and destinations of Anglo-Australian and Chinese-Australian high school students

Evidence from Australia lends support to the “Asian high achieving syndrome” in Chinese-Australian students and “self-deprivation syndrome” in Anglo-Australian students. Applying ethnographic case studies approach for doctoral thesis the author collected data on a longitudinal basis from homes and school of these students. All of these students attended the same school located in a predominantly middle class suburb of Perth Metropolitan area in Western Australia. Chinese-Australian families had settled in Perth from Malaysia, Singapore and Hong Kong, whereas Anglo-Australian families had been residing in Perth for three generations. Impetus to revisit these students (now young adults with their own families) 10 years later came from an urge to test the validity of the prediction the author had made in the concluding chapter of his doctoral thesis. The author had claimed that “if Anglo-Australian parents keep on dwelling in the era of 1950s and 1960s and do not change their laid-back attitude about education, their children could eventually be under-privileged in their own country”. Ten years later, the author undertook a follow-up study on these young adults from six of the eight original families in order to find out their occupational destinations and future aspirations. Data for the follow-up study were collected from these young adults and their parents. These research cases were interviewed twice, each time approximately for two hours and their parents were interviewed once for two to three hours. The purpose of this paper is to report the findings of the follow-up study which reveals a remarkable relationship between the attitude towards schooling and academic performance with their subsequent occupational destination.     

Disability,Stigma and Otherness: Perspectives of Parents and Teachers

This qualitative study explored the perspectives of parents and teachers in the US with regard to the meaning and implications of disability in the context of schoolling, and of raising a child with a disability. The findings revealed broad conceptual differences in the perspectives of these two groups. Teachers’ beliefs were generally consistent with medical model perspectives on disability as biologically defined. Parents’ interpretations, more aligned with a sociocultural paradigm, were situated in the cultural meanings ascribed to disability and linked with issues of stigma, marginalisation and access. The findings also revealed the existence of master narratives on families of children with disabilities, entrenched in assumptions of pathological functioning and negative outcomes among these families. Implications for professional–family partnerships in the education of students with disabilities are discussed.     

Teacher perspectives on partnerships on families of children with autism

The success of students with disabilities in school and community largely relies on productive family professional partnerships (FPPs). The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA, 2004) recognises the importance of family collaboration to student success by mandating that parents be involved in the Individualised Education Plan (IEP) process as full team members. While several previous studies examined the perspectives of parents of children with disabilities on partnerships with educators, less research exists on teacher perspectives on family professional collaborations. Additionally, there are even fewer studies that focus on teacher perspectives on partnerships with parents of children with autism, a disability category which continues to increase in prevalence. The present study contributes to the literature by examining teacher perspectives on factors that build and hinder positive partnerships with families of children with autism. Researchers surveyed 25 Special Education teachers and conducted additional individual interviews and open-ended questionnaires to examine teachers' first-hand experiences. Findings identified four common themes that educators felt helped and hindered collaborative relationships with families. Study results may lead to the development of specific family professional collaboration strategies that can be implemented and discussed in school districts, teacher trainings, pre-service teacher education programs and family workshops.

谈谈儒家的“慎独”精神

诚于中、形于外、遵乎道的“慎独”精神是儒家的看家本领之一,也是衡量一个人道德水准的重要标志。“慎独”精神通过对不良行为的抵制、道德原则的自律、精神境界的升华以养成人的完美人格;又通过对勤政爱民、清正廉洁、高风亮节的坚守,在廉政建设方面也发挥了积极作用。面对客观世界的日益纷繁和各种诱惑的无处不在,“慎独”精神在今天更显得格外重要。
