Examining relationships among work ethic,academic motivation and performance

In this study, work ethic was examined as a predictor of academic motivation and performance. A total of 440 undergraduate students completed measures of work ethic and academic motivation, and reported their cumulative grade point average. Results indicated that several dimensions of work ethic were related to academic motivation and academic performance. Differences between correlations were examined, and work ethic dimensions were more strongly related to hypothesised dimensions of motivation than other dimensions of motivation. In addition, structural equation modelling was used to examine the mediating effect of academic motivation. These findings provide additional evidence for the importance of work ethic in academic settings, as well as important construct-related validity evidence for work ethic. Implications of these study findings, limitations and future directions are discussed.     

On Deciding The Aims and Content of Public Schooling

In this paper, John Tillson defends an approach to deciding the aims and content of public schooling from the critique of Public Reason Liberalism. The approach that he defends is an unrestricted pairing of the Epistemic Criterion and of the Momentousness Criterion. On the Epistemic Criterion, public schooling should align students' credence with credibility. On the Momentousness Criterion, public schooling ought to include content that it is costly for children to lack the correct view about, where they are otherwise unlikely to have it. Public Reason Liberals seek to restrict both the Epistemic and Momentousness Criteria to within a range that is acceptable to politically reasonable citizens. In response, Tillson argues, first, that the considerations that encourage Public Reason Liberalism instead motivate unrestricted versions of the Epistemic and Momentousness Criteria; and, second, that Public Reason Liberalism faces a dilemma, that it either entails absurd consequences or must undermine itself in addressing these.     

希腊化数学和应用数学领域理性精神的发展

亚历山大里亚的学术活动与应用实践领域紧密结合在一起。这种希腊化特征具有促进应用实践技术领域理性意识的成长和理性推测领域的理论发明向观察一实验视界靠拢的双重意义。欧几里得思想体系对于从希腊古典时期的数学理性向近代以来科学理性的范式转换,在很大程度上起到中枢作用。托勒密对由柏拉图发起的以数学原理“拯救现象”的传统起到无可替代的中继环节作用。此外,应用数学的发展还与力学、光学等应用科学和营造技术等实践技术紧密联系在一起,从而达到了与近代科学革命相隔近千年之久的古代科学巅峰。
