Communicating aims and learning goals in physical education: part of a subject for learning?

Based on a socio-cultural perspective on learning, the aim of this article is to examine how aims and learning goals are communicated in physical education (PE) practice. A special focus is on scrutinising how teaching practices are framed in terms of whether and how the aims and learning goals are made explicit or not to students. The aim is also to relate these kinds of communications to different movement cultures. The result shows that many of the students taking part in the study do not understand what they are supposed to learn in PE. However, if the goals are well articulated by teachers, the students are more likely to both understand and be aware of the learning outcomes and what to learn in PE. The opposite is also true. If the goals and objectives are not clarified, students find it difficult to state the learning objectives and know what they are supposed to learn.     

浅评《中国人的性格》

从1840年中国近代化开始,外国传教士逐渐感兴趣和专注于探讨和研究中国国民性格问题。美国传教士A.H.史密斯(明恩溥)所著的《中国人的性格》一书除了对中国人性格做了细致的描写和深刻的批判外,也充分挖掘了中国人性格中的积极的价值。他以西方基督教的宗教文化偏见主张改造中国人的国民性,这引起了以辜鸿铭为代表的封建士大夫的强烈愤慨,但同时也受到了鲁迅等关注民族反省的有识之士的理性对待。     

论文化自觉的“觉自”和“觉他”

西方基督教以神的主体性隐喻了人的主体性,预示了主体性哲学中主体与外在客体的对立。主体性哲学导向了工具意义上的理性化,造成了价值理性的"失语"以及人的异化处境。中国传统圆融不二的文化理念更具包容性与和谐性,但无法与西方的科技理性进行较量。在中西方文化对话中应抛弃抽象意义上的"精华—糟粕"论,而采用一种文化创新意义上的更高形态的"新中体西用"论,在"觉自"和"觉他"的基础上,达致一种既"利己"又"利他"的更具普遍性的视域,以及能够满足多数人价值诉求和理想追求的核心价值理念。     

浅谈汉英谚语中的性别歧视

谚语是语言的特殊形式,是熟语的一种。古往今来,人们对谚语的评价向来很高。有人曾言：谚语乃语言中的盐,一束智慧的花。作为现实世界的一面镜子,语言真实地反映了各种社会习俗和价值观念。谚语作为语言的精华,浓缩了文化的内涵,涉及到社会生活的方方面面,从侧面反映了各民族的思维方式和价值观念。因而中西方文化中对女性带有贬义的看法和评价在汉英谚语中就会有所反映。笔者将以女性主义为视角分别探讨性别歧视在汉英谚语中的体现、性别歧视的根源及其发展趋势。

阿诺德“文化观”影响下的詹姆斯文化

亨利·詹姆斯享誉全球,他的作品在英美历史上乃至全世界产生了深远影响,他小说中经常反映的是欧美文化之间的关系。亨利·詹姆斯的文化理论受到了英国维多利亚时期著名评论家马修．阿诺德的影响。阿诺德作品中经常出现两个词语：希伯来主义和古希腊人文主义。在阿诺德看来．如果希伯来文化能够与古希腊文化完美地结合在一起,那就到了至高无上的境界。亨利·詹姆斯对阿诺德的观点很是信服,他作品中涉及的文化对比沿袭了阿诺德的文化观．亨利．詹姆斯小说中的欧美文化也经历了一个由相互冲突到相互融合的发展过程。     

Logics of practice in movement culture: Lars-Magnus Engström’s contribution to understanding participation in movement cultures

In this article, we present a framework for exploring participation in and social stratification of movement culture based on Pierre Bourdieu’s concept logic of practice. The background to our approach is Lars-Magnus Engström’s struggle to understand the impact of social stratification on participation in movement culture in a now nearly fifty-year follow-up study. The aim of the article is to elaborate further a framework, which Engström drafted in one of his last publications. Here, we assume that participation in movement cultures is guided by a number of logics of practice that are historically, culturally and socially constituted, and which relate to people’s tastes in particular ways that lead to social stratification. These logics are grouped into three overarching kinds of practices: performing, improving and experiencing, which engender both practice and social stratification. Further, the different logics of practice are linked to a principle of uncertainty, which means that quantitative empirical data must be interpreted rather than measured in a strict sense. The here outlined framework suggests that future research about participation in movement culture needs to take into account information about the structure, rhythm and tempo of the practice, as well as of the directionality of the actions. Information about these issues can hopefully contribute to a more elaborated understanding of the impact of social stratification on participation in movement culture, and in what forms movements are pursued.     

论五四时期李大钊的东西文化观

李大钊早期的东西文化观独具特色,既不盲从于全盘西化思潮,也不赞成复兴儒学的观点,而是强调东西文化融通,并视社会主义文明为人类文明的发展方向.但是,受个人思想发展和时代的局限,其早期东西文化观存在一定的不足.成为马克思主义者之后,李大钊逐步克服了地理环境决定论和进化论的影响,深刻反思了西方现代性思潮并纠正了文化救国的片面...
