Software engineering education: some important dimensions

Software engineering education has been emerging as an independent and mature discipline. Accordingly, various studies are being done to provide guidelines for curriculum design. The main focus of these guidelines is around core and foundation courses. This paper summarizes the current problems of software engineering education programs. It also proposes some important dimensions as integral parts of software engineering education: interdisciplinary skills, practice experience, communication, skills on continuing education and professionalism. In the current guidelines and studies these dimensions are not addressed specifically. Although there could be other dimensions to be considered in software engineering education, we believe that the proposed ones are very crucial as software engineering is evolving more rapidly than any other engineering discipline. This study also provides a survey of some major universities’ undergraduate software engineering programs to evaluate these dimensions.     

信息技术与课程整合的教学模式研究之二——“传递—接受”教学模式

该文是系统研究"信息技术与课程整合教学模式"系列研究论文的第二篇。这组系列研究论文对信息技术与课程整合实施过程中广大教师必须面对的重要问题——"对信息技术环境下教学模式的内涵与特征应如何正确认识、以及对这类教学模式应如何有效实施"作了较深入的探讨;该文则着重对课内整合模式中的主要代表之一"传递—接受教学模式"进行研究,并从该模式的产生背景、内涵与特征、实施步骤及实施案例等几个方面做出比较深入的阐述。

Educational Research for Policy and Practice in Japan – With Particular Reference to Youth Education

Based upon the Fundamental Law of Education, Japanese school education system has long been a source of pride for the country as a result of the high school participation rate, the homogeneity of compulsory education throughout the country. However, the confidence of the people in its schools is now showing severe signs of strain and fatigue. In recent years, there have been many reports about the growing seriousness of a number of educational problems having to do with young people in their childhood and adolescence. Since the mid-1970s, a number of problems have been highlighted. They include violent behavior, juvenile crimes, bullying, refusal to attend school, dropping out at secondary level of education, and corporal punishment. Against the above background, based on recommendations from such advisory bodies as the Central Council for Education and the National Commission on Education Reform, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology (MEXT) has adopted a range of policies and launched a series of educational reform programmes. For instance, what is called “Rainbow Plan”, based on the final report submitted by the National Commission on Education Reform, provides the country with basic guidelines for the educational reform in the near future. Roles of educational research for making policies have been of significance. Research initiated by the National Institute for Educational Policy Research (NIER) and the National Federation of Educational Policy Research Institutes (NFERI) is an example of contributions to the development of educational qualities in the country. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

留洋学者与南雍学术

在南京高等师范学校、东南大学时期,学校的学术研究极为活跃。究其原因,主要是占全校师资三分之二的留洋学者发挥了中坚作用。南高、东大作为“中国科学社的大本营”,“展开了中国科学的奠基工作,成为中国科学发展的一个主要基地”。以留洋学者为骨干的“学衡派”主张“昌明国粹,融化新知”;参与创办《新教育》,为中国教育界开辟了一条研究、借鉴西方教育的重要渠道;竺可桢、熊庆来、秉志、茅以升、胡刚复等一批科学大师将西方现代科学引进国内。
