美国高校师资的国际流动:流入与流出

教师是教学理念的具体实行者,高等教育的国际化必须首先实现高校师资队伍的国际化。无论在丰富自身的知识体系和专业经验方面,还是在开阔视野和提高专业素养方面,有众多的原因决定了必须大力推动高校师资的国际流动。美国在高校师资的国际流动方面有着丰富的经验,一方面通过客座教授项目、访问学者项目和教授交换项目吸引了大批国外优秀师资,另一方面通过教师带队出国留学项目、富布赖学者项目和教师交换项目鼓励本国师资走出国门,改善师资质量。     

Development and Implementation of the Inaugural Anatomy Education Research Institute (AERI 2017)

Education research is increasingly being recognized as a legitimate route for faculty development in universities. However, many anatomy faculty lack the appropriate training and access to experienced mentors who can help them develop their own education research projects. Inspired by the American Physiological Society’s Institute for Teaching and Learning, the coauthors proposed and developed the inaugural Anatomy Education Research Institute (AERI 2017). Funded by an American Association of Anatomists Innovations grant, the five-day institute was held in Bloomington, Indiana in July 2017. The coauthors spent two years preparing the conference schedule, inviting speakers who could discuss education research topics and mentor applicants, reviewing applications, developing assessment instruments for the institute, and hosting the institute. A total of 62 registered participants (applicants and invited speakers) attended AERI 2017. Through a series of presentations and workshops, participants were introduced to many aspects of education research and the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, including developing rigorous education research questions, determining appropriate methods to assess these questions, and searching the education research literature. Each day also included regular time devoted to work on their own education research project with help from more experienced mentors. Throughout the conference, participants were encouraged to post information on Twitter, using the hashtag #AERI2017. Participants had strong positive impressions of the conference and strongly requested future AERI conferences be held. Follow-up analyses will assess the institute in alignment with Kirkpatrick’s Four Levels of Evaluation Model, though preliminary evaluation indicates AERI 2017 met the original aims of the proposal.     

教育信息化视野中的城乡义务教育师资配置均衡化研究——以重庆市义务教育均衡发展为例

城乡义务教育均衡发展是促进教育公平的时代焦点课题。义务教育均衡发展的根本是教师资源均衡配置。现有的城乡教师轮岗、支教和挂职等措施在城乡教师资源配置中存在治标不治本缺陷。随着以教育信息化带动教育现代化战略的实施,发挥现代信息技术优势促进城乡优质教师资源共享,提升农村地区教师自身整体素质,为城乡教师均衡配置提供了新的研究视野。

形式教育与实质教育的心理学基础再探

知识与能力在个体发展中,孰轻孰重一直是教育史上颇有争议的话题.强调知识习得重于能力培养的实质教育以联想主义心理学为依据,强调能力培养重于知识习得的形式教育以官能心理学为依据.从两种观点的心理学依据上展开学理上的分析,探讨它们各自历史与逻辑上的合理性,以便更加辩证地理解两种教育观.     

Examining the impact of four teaching development programmes for engineering teaching assistants*

As current graduate instructors of labs and class discussions, teaching assistants (TAs) play a critical role in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) undergraduate education, especially as some graduate students may choose a faculty career in the future. Because of the importance of TAs and their development as scholars and instructors, we sought to determine the most effective methods of preparing engineering TAs at two research universities. We compare the impact of a teaching orientation with one of four teaching development programmes (Pedagogy Course, Advanced Practice Teaching, Workshop Attendance with Written Reflection, or Mid-Semester Student Feedback with Written Reflection) on engineering TAs’ teaching efficacy and definitions of active learning. Results indicated that the Pedagogy Course consistently increased TAs’ teaching efficacy and attitudes toward teaching compared with the other programmes. We also found that stand-alone Mid-Semester Student Feedback with Written Reflection enhanced TAs’ efficacy for reflection and beliefs about teaching. We discuss implications for providing teaching development for graduate students and directions for future research.
