What successful black South African students consider as factors of their success

Black South African students have a poor success rate in school leaving mathematics examinations. Attempts have been made to shift teachers' practices from teacher-centredness to learner-centredness, in Black schools, in order to improve the situation. So far, the attempts failed to yield the desired results. This paper reports on the findings of a study that aimed at learning from students and teachers in Black schools, as to what classroom practices lead to success in school mathematics, in their impoverished context.This revised version was published online in October 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

经世学派概说

经世学派试图通过提倡“经世之学”来挽救中国封建社会的末世或寻找社会发展的新的出路。他们揭露黑暗、评击时政、批判君主专制制度、关心国计民生，要求改革。相对当时清朝官方提倡的“宋学”和“汉学”，具有明显的积极意义和进步意义。特别是鸦片战争后，他们立足现实，开眼看世界，提出了“师夷之长技以制夷”的思想主张，开近代学术之风气，对后来的洋务思潮和资产阶级改良思潮的产生和发展都起到了发轫和启迪作用。

《普通高中语文课程标准》评析——以叶圣陶阅读课程理论为视点

《普通高中语文课程标准》(实验稿)在强调加强阅读实践活动、学习并运用阅读策略与方法、培养“读解和欣赏的能力”及体会民族文化、培育民族精神等诸多方面继承并发展了叶圣陶的阅读课程理论,但在选文标准、选文种类、文言文阅读要求及情感态度培养等四个方面却与叶圣陶的阅读教学思想存在较大的差异。应该将叶圣陶的更多阅读教学思想融入到《普通高中语文课程标准》中,以增强其可操作性,从而使一直悬而未决的阅读课基本课程内容及其序列问题能尽早得以解决。     

中学美术学科的教学原则

Choosing schools,choosing selves: exploring the influence of parental identity and biography on the school choice process in Delhi,India

Drawing on qualitative interview data from a group of lower income parents in Delhi, India, this paper focuses on the dynamic relationship between parental choice of a particular school and parents’ own identity construction. The data indicate that choice of school is for some parents a symbolic expression of identity, influenced by family dynamics and parents’ educational biographies. The paper outlines the concept of ‘forging solidarities’ and proposes it as an alternative way of understanding school enrolment decisions that recognises the social significance of such choices for the wider family unit. More generally, as school choice mechanisms in various forms become an increasingly important part of the educational landscape in many countries, the findings draw attention to the sociocultural nature of choice in real-world market settings and the contribution of schooling choices to processes of social and educational segregation.     

正统与异端--试论魏晋清谈中"音声之辨"的意义

言意之辨是魏晋玄学重要的思想方法.王弼创造性地提出了以有训有之不足的原则,这其实就是用语言来进行语言批判,是玄学向传统经学发难的基本思路.所谓"有",就是指现实语言世界.嵇康的<声无哀乐论>用言意之辨的方法,剖析"乐教"被统治者用语言"造立"起来的过程,以其悖谬颠覆其天经地义,堪称文学艺术理论自觉时代的"独立宣言".然而,在我们绵延了五千年的语言世界中,它始终只是一个异端的声音.
