Review of The Atlas of Erotic Anatomy and Arousal

The Atlas of Erotic Anatomy and Arousal is online video education that explores sexual pleasure and sexual anatomy from a sex positive perspective. Written and presented by a sex educator and therapist, Cyndi Darnell, this video is an excellent resource for adult individuals interested in learning about their bodies and having fulfilling sexual experiences with their partners. The video series provides scientifically accurate and pleasure-based information about the anatomy of the vulva, the penis, and the anus, and the physiology of orgasm and ejaculation, in an entertaining manner.     

Socially shared metacognition of dyads of pupils in collaborative mathematical problem-solving processes

This study investigated how metacognition appears as a socially shared phenomenon within collaborative mathematical word-problem solving processes of dyads of high-achieving pupils. Four dyads solved problems of different difficulty levels. The pupils were 10 years old. The problem-solving activities were videotaped and transcribed in terms of verbal and nonverbal behaviours as well as of turns taken in communication (N = 14 675). Episodes of socially shared metacognition were identified and their function and focus analysed. There were significantly more and longer episodes of socially shared metacognition in difficult as compared to moderately difficult and easy problems. Their function was to facilitate or inhibit activities and their focus was on the situation model of the problem or on mathematical operations. Metacognitive experiences were found to trigger socially shared metacognition.     

创造有意义的学习经历——对高校人文素质教育的思考

如何提高高校人文素质教育质量,美国著名的教育学者迪·芬克提出的创造有意义的学习经历这一教育理念值得我们借鉴。创造有意义的学习经历可以突破传统的教育思维,从思想到行动进行人文素质教育全面建构,缩短人文素质教育与社会实践的距离。我们可以从课堂上,设计与实施主题交流、课堂辩论、模拟情境、小组学习、案例教学等有意义的学习经历,同时,设计和增加服务学习、体验学习、观察学习、真实项目等有意义的课外学习经历。     

The Experience of Doctoral Studies in the UK and France: differences in epistemology,research objects and training

This article investigates how doctoral students perceive their research education in different disciplines in two higher education systems, the UK and France. It explores what underlies the diversity of doctoral students' experiences. Three theoretical positions are identified: the epistemological position, conceptualisation of research objects and organisational structures of research training. A questionnaire on the experiences of research training was distributed to doctoral students in Economics & Management (representative of social sciences) and Chemistry (representative of natural sciences) in France and was compared to a survey carried out earlier in Education (representative of social sciences) and Chemistry (representative of natural sciences) in the UK. Strikingly, similar disciplinary patterns were found in the doctoral research experiences in the two countries. The findings were used to review the three theoretical positions on the experiences of doctoral studies.     

Interest,enjoyment and pride after failure experiences? Predictors of students’ state-emotions after success and failure during learning in mathematics

The current investigation was designed to identify emotion states students experience during mathematics activities, and in particular to distinguish emotions contingent on experiences of success and experiences of failure. Students’ task-related emotional responses were recorded following experiences of success and failure while working with an individualised computer-based mathematics learning environment. In addition, relations between these patterns of emotional responses after success and failure experiences and trait-like motivational variables, self-concept of ability, subject value, orientation to learning from errors, goal orientation and causal attributions, were examined. Two separate studies are reported. In Study 1 emotions associated with success and failure experiences in mathematics were investigated in relation to self-concept of ability, subject value and orientation to learning from errors. In Study 2, patterns of emotion following success and failure were examined in relation to students’ goal orientation and their causal attributions for success in school.     

高校武术课情景演绎式教学与传统教学模式实验比较研究

文章通过高校武术课中情景演绎教学模式与传统教学模式的实验对比,分别运用马尔科夫链、SEEQ问卷等方法从学生、教师、教学效果延伸等三个方面调查、统计,进行教学效果评价,发现武术教学到了必须从粗放型普适模式向精细型个性模式升级的阶段,否则武术课教学有可能被高校课堂淘汰,情景演绎式教学法很好地解决了这一问题,但是它对任课教师的综合素质要求较高,对教学条件依存度较高,虽然具有探索意义和推广价值,短期内不具备广泛的适应性。     

关于空间实验室(站)发展技术途径的思考

苏联/俄罗斯、美国、欧洲和日本等国已先后发展了载人航天器。虽然他们采用了不同的战略和途径,但总的技术路线都是先研制技术较为简单、载人时间较短的空间实验室,然后研制技术较为复杂、载人时间较长、用途更为广泛的空间站。由于各国在发展空间实验室（站）的模式上有很大差异,因此所获得的成果也有天壤之别。通过分析、归纳和比较国外空间实验室（站）的发展技术途径,可以发现不少值得借鉴的经验与教训,对我国空间实验室（站）的发展战略和技术途径有一定启示。     

中学生课外补习情况调查

本文对华中科技大学附中学生问卷调查的分析表明,英语、数学和物理的课外补习对提高这些科目的考试成绩有一定的帮助;但由于参加课外补习的主要提议者是家长,而不是学生本人,从而导致学生参加补习情况不稳定。因此若学校正规教育的时间安排更加合理,教学效果更好,课外补习就会大大减少。     

幼儿园科学教育中自主探究的生态化简析

自主探究是幼儿学习科学的基本方式,然而当前的科学教育中,自主探究被片面误解为动手操作,探究内容脱离幼儿生活经验,忽视幼儿的情感体验。基于生态主义系统的视角,科学教育中幼儿自主探究的生态化应从目标、内容、形式和环境四个维度入手,使自主探究焕发其内在生命力。     

新建本科院校大学生课程学习参与的调查研究——以HH学院为例

以HH学院为调查对象,以美国印第安纳大学编制的《大学生就读经验问卷》为调查工具,就大学生课程学习参与的情况进行调查与分析,发现学生课程学习参与程度在不同年级、专业间差别较大,其中艺术类专业学生课堂活动的参与程度较高,理工科学生学习兴趣较弱。文科专业学生在综合运用知识解决实际问题能力方面排名较低。继而提出针对性的对策建议。
