关键期理论与第二语言学习的时机和方式

关键期理论及其相关研究表明：正规学习环境中，年龄对二语习得的作用并不十分重要。我国目前教学条件下，盲目追求外语学习低龄化存在许多隐患，它有碍儿童外语能力发展，同时也影响儿童母语学习和对母语文化的认同。外语学习时机和方式的选择应充分考虑到实际教学条件、学习者的心理特点及不同认知发展阶段等其他更重要因素。     

New directions in education? A critique of contemporary policy reforms

This paper draws on facets of Foucault's theoretical resources to critique current education policy reform from within the Australian State of Victoria, namely the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development's (DEECD) discussion paper New directions for school leadership and the teaching profession. Implicit in the reform effort is decentralization, including penalties for “underperforming” classroom teachers and “ineffective” teacher education courses. Principals will hold a pre-eminent rank in the reforms proposed as they are charged with their oversight and implementation, including intervening in the education and preparation of pre-service teachers.     

动力定型的个性化与临界理论的社会化--第二语言习得两个重要的宏观神经机制制约假说刍议

通过对有关大脑功能侧化及语言习得时效关系诸多假说的历史回顾与批评,有机地结合语言学与脑科学研究的新发现,本文旨在以语言比较研究为发入点,宏观地阐述1.不同语言体系言语能力掌握过程中神经与生理机制的独特性.2.语言习得,特别是第二语言习得的最佳年龄争议及其社会制约因素的存在,对脑动力定型个性化与习得临界理论社会化的综合分析同时也是调和传统语言教学方法与脑科学等前沿学科间研究对象矛盾的尝试之一例.     

土坝回填粘土渗透变形特性试验研究

土石坝的除险加固方案中常采用冲抓套井回填夯实粘土作为防渗体,即粘土心墙防渗体,该方法已在许多水库和相当长度的堤防工程建设中得到广泛的应用;然而其渗透稳定一直是工程设计和施工中的关键问题之一.本文结合某水库土石坝除险加固工程坝体渗透稳定问题,开展了坝体心墙粘土的物理特性、渗透特性、临界坡降的研究,为工程设计和施工提供了必要的分析成果和参考依据.

School mathematics in the era of globalization

This essay reviews the principles motivating contemporarycritical mathematics discourses. Drawing from varied critical discourses including ethno-mathematics, critical theory, post-structural theory, and situated and ecological cognition, the essay examines the pragmatics of critiques to the privileged role of school mathematics in the era of globalization. Critiques of modern school curricula argue that globalization practices linking education to technological and economic development are increasing, and the curriculum is being re-defined through discourses of privatization, national standards, and global competitiveness. Globalization has reinforced the utilitarian approach to school mathematics and the Western bias in the prevailing mathematics curricula, as well as helped to globalize pervasive mathematical ideologies. In most instances, a newfound status that mathematics is enjoying in this era of globalization is not well deserved, as school mathematics can no longer be considered culturally, socially, politically, nor economically neutral. In particular, school mathematics is increasingly critiqued as a cultural homogenizing force, a critical filter for status, a perpetuator of mistaken illusions of certainty, and an instrument of power. With such concerns it is becoming more evident that mathematics learning and education have implications for building just and democratic societies. As an African female scholar who is now living in Canada, I reflect on what the critical stance might mean for contexts with which I am familiar. I discuss the challenges of school mathematics with a view to improving curriculum and pedagogy so as to raise the awareness of teachers and learners to the questionable assumptions from which mathematics derives its prestige. The mathematics curriculum is central to cultivating values as well as fostering the conscientization of learners.     

Considering research paradigms in environmental education

The benefits of qualitative, quantitative, and mixed research methodologies are often emphasized in undergraduate and graduate training about producing and analysing data. Less often discussed are the philosophies of research that can be used to explore environmental education. To help introduce students to the ways such paradigms lead to different insights and lines of inquiry, we offer a supplementary reading of a natural resource management program seen through the lenses of four different research philosophies. The program engages biological and social scientists as they work to increase native biodiversity in Hawke's Bay region of New Zealand and share successes with other regions. We argue that the benefits of training students to appreciate research possibilities via multiple research paradigms could improve the way we work together and collaborate with colleagues in other disciplines. Students are better equipped to select, develop, and defend appropriate research questions and paradigms. Also, the potential for environmental education research activity that complements project-specific data collection is great, as with most natural resource projects. In sum, improving our collective awareness of paradigmatic perspectives will help improve communication and understanding as we all work in the transformation of education, ecosystems and human communities.
