Effect of gender on trunk and pelvis control during lateral movements with perturbed landing

In lateral reactive movements, core stability may influence knee and hip joint kinematics and kinetics. Insufficient core stabilisation is discussed as a major risk factor for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. Due to the higher probability of ACL injuries in women, this study concentrates on how gender influences trunk, pelvis and leg kinematics during lateral reactive jumps (LRJs). Perturbations were investigated in 12 men and 12 women performing LRJs under three different landing conditions: a movable landing platform was programmed to slide, resist or counteract upon landing. Potential group effects on three-dimensional trunk, pelvic, hip and knee kinematics were analysed for initial contact (IC) and the time of peak pelvic medial tilt (PPT). Regardless of landing conditions, the joint excursions in the entire lower limb joints were gender-specific. Women exhibited higher trunk left axial rotation at PPT (women: 4.0 ± 7.5°, men: ?3.1 ± 8.2°; p = 0.011) and higher hip external rotation at both IC and PPT (p < 0.01). But women demonstrated higher knee abduction compared to men. Men demonstrated more medial pelvic tilt at IC and especially PPT (men: –5.8 ± 4.9°, women: 0.3 ± 6.3°; p = 0.015). Strategies for maintaining trunk, pelvis and lower limb alignment during lateral reactive movements were gender-specific; the trunk and hip rotations displayed by the women were associated with the higher knee abduction amplitudes and therefore might reflect a movement strategy which is associated with higher injury risk. However, training interventions are needed to fully understand how gender-specific core stability strategies are related to performance and knee injury.     

试论文学在英语教学中的作用

英美文学在语言、文化背景、俚语及写作等方面对提高学生英语水平都有较大帮助，因此不可忽视英美文学教育在英语教学中的积极作用。     

语言教学中的文化教学

语言和文化互相影响，互相作用，学生如只学语言而不学其文化，将无法真正掌握一门语言也无法正确运用。文化差异决定语言差异，导致语用差异及价值观念的差异。因此，在语言教学中应渗透文化教学。     

校本课程评价研究综述

我国的校本课程评价研究存在着对实践问题关注不够、独创性不高、研究不够深入以及忽略不同类型校本课程之间的区别等问题。为此,需要采取课程研究模式向课程实践转变、课程评价理论由引进向转化和创生转变、研究中坚持全面、整合的课程价值观等相应之策略。     

小学数学课堂练习设计的策略

在小学数学教学中,练习课约占总教时的一半多,几乎没有一节课是只讲不练的。古人云:"拳不离手,曲不离口"。可见练习的重要性,如何探索新课程理念下的课堂练习设计,是广大教师共同关注的课题。教师可根据教学内容,紧扣教学目标,设计有"坡度"、"难度"、"密度"的练习,加大知识"跨度,"变换练习角度,提高练习设计的有效性。     

建立学习型政府的障碍及对策

建立学习型政府,实质上就是要在政府机构中引入学习型组织的管理模式和理念,进行以愿景为基础的学习管理,以提高政府组织的适应性。然而,建设学习型政府不可避免地会遇到许多现实障碍。而且,在政府组织中,由于其自身的特殊性,还存在着不同于企业组织的特属于政府组织的学习障碍。为此必须采取相应的对策。

导学教师对学生学习监控的探讨

在开放教育教师与学生在时空上准分离的情况下,对学生学习过程的有效监控十分困难,为此,试图从导学教师对学生学习过程监控入手,就监控的标准、内容、途径等问题做一探讨。     

英语专业语言教学中文化导入的层次及内容

英语专业的语言教学中要导入文化教学，这在我国的英语教学界已经是一个不争的问题。但是，文化导入的层次及内容是什么?这正是目前广泛而深入探讨的问题。本文根据作者长期的教学实践，结合相关的理论研究，针对新《大纲》的有关要求，就英语专业语言教学中文化导入的层次及内容进行探讨，以便促进我国的英语专业语言教学。
