Learning science through writing: associations with prior conceptions of writing and perceptions of a writing program

Students in a large undergraduate biology course were expected to write a scientific report as a key part of their course design. This study investigates the quality of learning arising from the writing experience and how it relates to the quality of students’ preconceptions of learning through writing and their perceptions of their writing program that led to their report. Closed‐ended questionnaires investigating student conceptions and perceptions of writing, and approaches to writing, were completed by 121 students. Significant associations were found amongst qualitatively different prior and post conceptions of writing, approaches to writing and achievement. The results of the analyses suggest that the effective support of student experiences of writing reports requires teachers to be aware of the type of conceptions that students bring to their course and the perceptions they hold about the purpose of the writing program in which they are engaged.     

基于自主性学习的英语教学模式探究

传统的大学英语教学模式,教学效果不理想,引起众多批评。于是正在进行的大学英语教学改革里,提出要培养学生的自主学习能力,然而实践中出现对自主学习的认识偏差,忽视了课堂教学活动的重要性,轻视了教师的主导地位,对学生的主体地位的定位不准确等等问题。针对以上情况本文尝试探讨通过何种模式来培养学习者自主学习能力。     

Color control of the multi-color printing device

INTRODUCTION During the development of printing technology, digital printing has played an important role. Now various kinds of multi-color digital inkjet printers are available. Compared with the conventional digital inkjet printer, the multi-color digital inkjet printer has larger color gamut and can faithfully produce more colors. The conventional color printing devices nor- mally use three or four inks, e.g., CMY, CMYK. Although some adopt more than four inks, e.g., CMYKLcLm, the…
