由认知角度对英语概念语法隐喻的分析

隐喻是人类认知事物的一种基本方式。隐喻在人类语言与认知中起着极其重要的作用,其产生于人类的思维过程,反映了人类对世界的认知方式,隐喻的实质就是通过联想从一个认知域映射到另一个认知域的过程。概念语法隐喻作为隐喻的一个部分,对人们认识世界、了解世界也起到了重要的作用。     

英汉人体内脏器官隐喻认知对比研究

隐喻是一种用来增强语言表达效果的修辞手段,更是人类认知世界的一种基本的思维或概念化模式。人体器官作为人类体验、认识和描述世界的起点和基础,在隐喻认知过程中发挥着至关重要的作用。文章基于人体隐喻理论,对英汉两种语言中的人体内脏器官隐喻现象进行系统的对比研究,着重探讨两种语言在人体内脏器官隐喻化方面的共性和差异,旨在进一步丰富和完善人体隐喻认知的研究,深化人们对人体隐喻理论的认识,以期对英汉语的词汇教学和跨文化交际具有一定的借鉴作用。

利用量子微积分加深对复合函数求导链式法则的理解

链式法则是复合函数求导的基本规则,给复合函数的求导计算带来便利,但是往往忽略这一法则的重要意义,本文尝试通过讨论量子微积分中复合函数求导的链式法则的丧失,来加深对这一法则的理解。     

我国法律规避立法探析

考虑法律规避行为的违法性,两大法系国家均采取了措施对其进行规制,但是两大法系的规制途径并不相同,大陆法系国家主要是通过法律规避制度直接规制法律规避行为,而英美法系国家则通过公共政策、政府利益分析等灵活方法间接规制法律规避行为。鉴于强制性规则适用制度无法涵盖法律规避制度、英美法律规避的替代性制度无法适用中国、法律规避制度的自身价值,便可以略知我国立法应全面承认法律规避制度,提高法律规避的立法位阶,配套相应具体的司法解释。     

Eye tracking methodology for studying teacher learning: a review of the research

ABSTRACT

Eye tracking methodology offers insights into human attention, decision-making processes, and user behaviours. In the context of teacher learning, data generated from eye-tracking technology has the potential to provide important information about teachers’ behavioural patterns and cognitive processes that may or may not be occurring during learning experiences. This review analyses existing studies that use eye tracking methodology for studying teacher learning. The authors accessed three different databases (ERIC, PsycNet, and EBSCOHost) for their review. An iterative process of reviewing and coding the articles led to an in-depth review of 10 recently published articles. Emergent themes resulted from the in-depth review and include information processing, multimedia learning, learning tools and resources, and expert-novice knowledge construction. The reviewed articles also highlight how eye tracking can be used to determine teachers’ engagement with learning material, reading patterns, and sense-making strategies. Additional study characteristics, including context, data sources, eye tracking device and metrics were also reviewed. Results of this review shed light on how educational researchers can effectively use eye tracking methodology to investigate teacher learning at different career stages. This, in turn, can inform educational stakeholders about how to optimize learning opportunities and environments.     

Fostering metacognitive awareness among teachers: Implications for the Nigerian school system

Abstract

This article focused on the concept of metacognition. Some theoretical models of metacognition were discussed to provide a general framework to understand the relationship between the different aspects or components of this phenomenon. The study also looked at five metacognitive strategies that enhance learning in schools, namely: (1) graphic organizers; (2) metacognitive scaffolding; (3) reciprocal teaching; (4) explicit instruction; and (5) collaborative learning. The work also briefly highlighted the problems of metacognitive strategies used in Nigerian schools. We noted that all learners do not engage spontaneously in metacognitive thinking unless they are explicitly encouraged to do so through carefully designed instructional activities. The study therefore recommended effective practice of scaffolded instruction on metacognitive strategies use in Nigerian schools and other countries in the world.     

The Art of Learning with Difficulty

Summary

Librarians should be actively involved in educating students: not merely teaching them the techniques needed for bibliographic searches, but helping them learn the artistry involved in thinking for themselves. This is not a matter of expertise, of teaching rules for use in academic specialties. It's a matter of creating interactive contexts-conversations-in which students can acquire by experience the general good sense needed to be able to decide in situations, specialized or not, which rules to use and why.     

基于关联规则的我国SSCI文献数量特征研究

对1991-2010年间的16 656条我国SSCI文献数据进行关联规则分析。在对关联规则结果进行冗余规则剪除、有效性检验和模板匹配的基础上,得到基于主导地区、合作模式和成果流向角度的我国SSCI文献的数量关联特征。通过关联特征发现:我国主导的社会科学研究合作范围狭窄、合作对象单一,在跨国合作中不占据主导地位,缺乏把握成果流向的话语权。     

Conceptual change with refutational maps

ABSTRACT

This study investigated how studying a refutational map, a type of argument map, affected conceptual change. Refutational maps visually display both correct and alternative conceptions. Participants (N?=?120) were randomly assigned to (1) a refutational map condition, (2) a refutational text condition, and (3) a non-refutational text condition. The post-test results showed that studying the refutational map led to better performance on free recall and learning transfer measures. Specifically, participants who studied the refutational map performed significantly better than others on a free recall test, and they significantly outperformed the non-refutational text group on a short-answer transfer test. The multiple-choice test, another transfer measure, failed to detect any differences among the three groups. The research also found that individual differences in need for cognition and logical thinking ability interacted with the type of study materials. Participants scoring lower on logical thinking ability gained more from studying the refutational map.
