Student Use of Internet Study Rooms for Out-of-Class Group Study in Introductory Biology

This paper describes a pilot study in which undergraduates in an active introductory biology class (Biol 100) used online, virtual study rooms to study together outside of class in small groups. The study was conducted (a) to determine whether students who had access to Internet study rooms would make use of them for out-of-class group study, and (b) to find out how students perceived their online group study experience in comparison with face-to-face group study. Self-reported data were obtained at the time that multiple-choice exams were administered in the large class of Biology 100. The survey was completed by 90 of the students who had signed up for online study rooms. The results indicated that 47 students used their online study rooms to study for the final exam together with other members of their in-class teams. More than half of the students who provided written comments were positive about their online experience. Even those who strongly preferred face-to-face meetings expressed willingness to use online study rooms in a pinch.

女性话语:建构的迷惘--女作家对女性话语建构的探索

女性话语是以男性意识为模式与规范，还是“以性意识为规范”？为了还“女性”话旆的本真面貌，中国女作家通过她们笔下女性形象的建构，希望建构出真正的与男性话语平等存在的“女性话语”。但是在建构女性话语的过程中。女作家们的努力地展现了女性话语建构的迷惘。男权意识规范女性话语势力的强大，是赞成女性话语建构迷惘的主要原因。     

茨威格小说与弗洛伊德学说的联系与区别

纵观茨威格的小说创作,我们发现其创作受弗洛伊德学说的影响是事实。但是笔者对茨威格小说“除了运用弗洛伊德的心理学理论外,看不出别的特征”这种观点,却是万万不能苟同的。我们认真阅读和分析茨威格的小说文本,发现并不仅仅是再现和图解弗洛伊德的心理学理论,茨威格的小说创作有其特殊的内容和特征。     

Team-based Introductory Research Experiences in Mathematics

Abstract

As part of Middle Tennessee State University’s (MTSU’s) initiative to improve retention of at-risk STEM majors, they recruit first-time, full-time freshman STEM majors with mathematics ACT scores of 19 to 23 to participate in MTSU’s “Mathematics as a FirstSTEP to Success in STEM” project (FirstSTEP). This article overviews MTSU’s FirstSTEP research approach and demonstrates that introductory, early research experiences can be successful for mathematics projects. At the end of their freshman year, mathematics students can develop a foundation to conduct mathematical research, increase depth of content knowledge, and build confidence in their technical abilities.
