Evaluating the international dimension in an undergraduate curriculum by assessing students’ intercultural sensitivity

This formative, outcome-oriented, theory-based evaluation research study assessed the effectiveness of requiring an international (‘I’) course by measuring students’ intercultural sensitivity (IS) at the start and end of a semester. Findings revealed that students’ IS scores did not change regardless of the type of class in which the student was enrolled and were not significantly different based on gender, age, ethnicity, undergraduate classification, or number of ‘I’ courses taken. There were significant differences in IS based on religion, traveling outside the US, participating in a study abroad course, and the number of cultural events in which the student had participated. Regression analysis confirmed that religious affiliation and number of times traveled outside the US were significant predictors of IS. This study is an example of the use of theory-based evaluation in an educational system and provides important insights into what experiences affect college students’ IS.     

小学体育兴趣化游戏教学的多维性探索

随着新一轮教改工作在我国全国范围内的深入开展,体育已经成为各地小学素质教育工作中的重点内容。就目前来看,为进一步提高小学体育教学效率,兴趣化游戏教学已经逐步被引入实际教学工作中,该教学模式可以冲破传统教条主义教学思维的拘束,进一步提高学生对学习的兴趣,使被动学习转变为主动学习,从而更好地实现当今时代小学体育教学工作目标。     

白板在小学体育室内教学中的应用

伴随信息技术的快速发展,运用白板开展教学活动的现象日益普及。在很多学科教学中,教师都开始应用白板,以取代传统的运用黑板开展教学的方式。通过运用该种方式,课堂教学时生生互动和师生互动的比例明显增多,课堂教学更加生动高效。在小学低段体育教学中,受诸多因素的影响,室内教学占有一定的比重,教师通过运用白板,有助于丰富课堂教学内容,提升教学趣味性和实效性。     

高中篮球模块教学的实践与探索

随着体育的发展,模块教学理念深入学校的体育教学之中。模块教学是以学生为主体的教学模式,学生能够根据自己的特长和爱好选择适合自己的体育运动项目,从而保障了学习体育的积极性。针对于今天的教学来说,教师的教学目的一定不是单纯地去追求学生的学习成绩,今天随着新课标的不断深入,教师需要把以往从学生纯净的追求转变为对于学生综合素养的追求。这个时候体育学科的重要性就会有所体现,身体是革命的本钱,学生在学习的过程中一定要有一个好的身体素质,只有这样他们才能够更好地应对接下来的生活。

Using the Information Structure Model to Compare Profile-Based Information Filtering Systems

In the IR field it is clear that the value of a system depends on the cost and benefit profiles of its users. It would seem obvious that different users would prefer different systems. In the TREC-9 filtering track, systems are evaluated by a utility measure specifying a given cost and benefit. However, in the study of decision systems it is known that, in some cases, one system may be unconditionally better than another. In this paper we employ a decision theoretic approach to find conditions under which an Information Filtering (IF) system is unconditionally superior to another for all users regardless of their cost and benefit profiles.It is well known that if two IF systems have equal precision the system with better recall will be preferred by all users. Similarly, with equal recall, better precision is universally preferred. We confirm these known results and discover an unexpected dominance relation in which a system with lower recall will be universally preferred provided its precision is sufficiently higher.
