To jump the wave or not: teachers’ perceptions of research evidence in education

This article presents a microanalysis of how a group of primary school teachers deals with research evidence in their work. Based on analysis of a group of Norwegian teachers’ interactions over issues of educational research and research-based knowledge, we find that teachers’ representations of educational research particularly center on the following issues: educational research being perceived as circular, ‘polyphonic’, and a matter of accommodation to their experience-based knowledge. These metaphors also shed light upon the dilemmas that arise when research evidence meets teachers’ more contextual knowledge. We conclude that teachers’ practice-based evidence may take new forms with an increased policy focus on research-based evidence, as well as bringing forth challenges for teacher work and professionalism.     

孟子的仁政学说与和谐社会的构建

孟子以人与禽兽之别来规定人性,强调人性为善的道德自觉。人的"类"意识内在地规定了人性具有善的可能性。统治者从这种善性出发,推行得民心的仁政,就成为一种必须的选择。仁政包含了政治、经济、教育、人事等具体内容,它强调稳定的政治秩序,突出"民"的主体地位,对我们社会主义和谐社会的构建具有重大借鉴作用。

The de/politicization of pronouns: implications of the No Big Deal Campaign for gender-expansive educational policy and practice

ABSTRACT

Accommodating non-binary transgender people, many of whom use gender-neutral pronouns, poses a unique challenge to schools and universities, even in contexts with legal protections for transgender rights. This article explores a recent Canadian controversy around gender-neutral pronouns, and assembles a theoretical framework to analyze the argument that legal protection for transgender peoples’ pronouns poses a threat to ‘free speech.’ The framework bridges queer theory, affect theory and Deleuzo-Guattarian assemblage theory to propose a threshold between ‘extra’ and ‘excessive’ effort to accommodate social difference in everyday life. Free speech objections produce some peoples’ pronouns as requiring ‘excessive’ effort. This extra/excessive framework was exemplified by a recent Canadian social media campaign that sought to produce transgender peoples’ pronouns as requiring merely ‘extra’ effort, which entails de-politicizing pronouns. Community responses to the campaign carry significant implications for gender-expansive educational policy and practice.     

贾谊《诗》学寻踪

根据新近出土文献,分析了贾谊引用《诗经》与四家诗的异同,注意到贾谊说《诗》以“雅”,“颂”为主的事实,说明贾谊的《诗》学继承了春秋官学中“以诗为教”的传统。     

驻共产国际时期的王明思想探析

驻共产国际时期的王明思想是以“左”倾错误思想为指导的，他宣传世界革命“高涨论”，中国革命“高潮论”，系统地阐发了冒险而教条的主张，给中国革命带来了惨重的损失，但王明在坚持“左”倾思想的同时，随着中国抗日战争形势的发展和共产国际指示精神的变化，在一些方面也适时地调整了政策，提出了比较符合实际的新见解，对全党调整方针政策起到了一定的作用，如在统一战线，东北问题以及反对李立三“左”倾思想等方面阐述了一些可取的思想。

The “A” factor: Coming to terms with the question of legacy in South African education

This paper attempts to offer an alternative framework for assessing education delivery in South Africa. Its purpose is to develop an analytic approach for understanding education delivery in South Africa in the last 11 years and to use this framework to pose a set of strategic questions about how policy might be framed to deal with delivery. The paper begins with a quick review of the country's achievements and challenges in education and shows that a failure to produce a high quality education system remains the country's primary challenge. The broad approach that is taken is to suggest that dominant approaches for understanding this lack of performance underplay the specificity of the country's context and specifically so its apartheid legacy. This legacy, it is argued, continues to be determinative in shaping, and accounting for the character of current social behaviour in the country, including the performance of children in schools.     

长沙地区第四纪地质若干问题探讨

本文对长沙地区第四纪地层、沉积环境及新构造运动等方面进行探讨,指出:1)下更新统与中更新统的分界线应放在白沙井组与新开铺组之间较为合理;2)更新世以来,本区环境为河湖演替的发展过程,“白沙井”组为中更新世早期河流沉积;3)由于中新生代以来地幔上拱引起洞庭坳陷沉降,致使区内出现南升北降的掀斜变形;4)继承性构造活动和新生的构造,集中表现在湘江两岸的阶地变形及 NNE、NE、EW 向三组断裂,这些新构造均发现在晚更新世以前地层中,说明该区近期属地壳运动较稳定的时期。但晚更新世以后的构造形迹需进一步查明,而一些重大工程仍需进行系统工程地质及地震地质方面的调查与研究。
