西部地区农户家庭教育投资与收入变动关系的调查分析——以陕西关中地区为例

教育投资与个人收入水平之间存在正相关性,教育投资是提升个人及家庭经济地位的主要途径。然而,个人教育投资也受制于家庭现有收入水平的制约。在西部传统农业区,长期性、高密度性教育投资支出与家庭实际收入水平之间的相互制约性更显著。基于此,本文通过对陕西关中某地的实地调查,着重分析家庭现有收入对家庭教育投资行为制约影响,通过对家庭收入与教育投资之间的相关性分析,提出改善农村教育投资环境的基本思路和政策建议。     

论语文教科书练习题设计的价值取向——以人教版、苏教版、台湾版教科书中 《核舟记》《愚公移山》为例

在《核舟记》《愚公移山》两篇课文练习题的设计上,人教版、苏教版注重练习题内容的覆盖面和文言基础知识的学习,单一性、封闭性题目居多,题目总量偏少;台湾版没有文言基础知识及背诵的题目,多设计聚焦式、综合式、开放式的题目,题目总数多。设计练习题的主要目的是为了引导教学和学生的学习,其价值取向应是提升学生的语文素养。这就引发我们思考:怎样设计练习题的内容、形式、层级和数量,才能达到这一目标。

Confidence in prior knowledge,self-efficacy,interest and prior knowledge: Influences on conceptual change

This study explored how confidence in prior knowledge, self-efficacy, interest, and prior knowledge interact in conceptual change learning. One hundred and sixteen college students completed an assessment of confidence in prior knowledge, self-efficacy, interest, prior scientific understanding, and prior misconceptions before reading a refutation text on seasonal change. Students’ misconceptions and scientific understanding of seasonal change was then assessed before and after reading a refutation text, and again at a two week delayed posttest. Three profiles of students emerged based on their confidence in prior knowledge, self-efficacy, interest, prior scientific understanding, and prior misconceptions. The profiles included: (1) Low (low confidence, self-efficacy, interest, and prior scientific understanding and high prior misconceptions), (2) mixed (high confidence, self-efficacy, and interest, but low prior scientific understanding and high prior misconceptions), and (3) high (high confidence, self-efficacy, interest, and prior scientific understanding and low prior misconceptions). Results indicated that the mixed profile appeared to be most productive for conceptual change and that learner characteristics most productive for conceptual change learning may differ from those most productive in other learning situations.

Disaster philanthropy: Exploring the power and influence of for-profit philanthropy in education development during pandemic times

This article contributes a conceptual analysis of the power and influence of for- profit philanthropy on educational development during pandemic times. Through highlighting for-profit philanthropy, describing its relevance to educational development, and drawing attention to four aspects that are under-examined as for- profit philanthropists enact their philanthropic agendas in response to the COVID- 19 pandemic, disaster philanthropy is presented as a window of opportunity for elite donors to enact changes in public education based on their distinct donor and institutional agendas. Implications for educational development are discussed including shifts in power, definitions and public vs. private returns.     

School context and instructional capacity: A comparative study of professional learning communities in rural and urban schools in China

This study examines the teaching gap between rural and urban schools in China from the perspective of teacher professional learning communities (PLCs). Drawing on in-depth interviews with 36 primary school teachers, the study finds striking disparities between rural and urban schools in the working of Teaching and Research Groups (TRGs). These disparities in TRGs result in divergent patterns of instructional capacity building in rural and urban schools. The evidence shows that teaching and teachers are strongly shaped by the school organizational context. It suggests that strengthening school-wide PLCs is an important way of narrowing the rural-urban teaching and learning gaps.     

Heritage education in the Primary School Standard Curriculum of Malaysia

Due to the importance of education for sustainable heritage preservation, it is imperative to pay attention to how heritage is taught in the education system. As a multicultural country with a rich cultural heritage, Malaysia is home to four world heritage sites. This paper investigates Malaysia's new primary school curriculum to determine to what extent the core curriculum cultivates an awareness of and sense of respect for heritage. The results reveal a focus on Malaysian intangible cultural heritage in some core subjects, such as history, Bahasa Malaysia, art, and music education.
