高等院校分层发展刍议

当前在我国高等院校分层发展中凸现出不少问题,主要原因在于我国尚无公认合理的高校分层标准。从宏观层面分析,分层标准制定中有以下不可或缺的因素:师资水平和生源质量是高校分层的人力依据,教育设施、设备的优劣是高校分层的物力依据,教学、科研经费的多寡是高校分层的财力依据。在高校分层过程中,要强化社会评价体系和评价机制在高校分层中的角色扮演,淡化政府主管部门的地位和作用,注重高校自主定位的科学性。     

Evaluation of Internet Information Sources by High School Students in Ghana

The Internet clearly presents the opportunity for students to expand their knowledge at a fast pace, since they are able to access enormous amount of information. However, accessing the Internet also has its downside since not all information is of good quality. The study explored how 12th grade students at a high school in Ghana evaluated online information sources. These students and the head of the Information Communication Technology department respond to self-administered questionnaires and a semi-structured interview, respectively. The study found that most of the high school students did some kind of an evaluation of online information sources, however, they were not applying the right criteria. The study further revealed that students were not introduced to evaluation criteria at school and this had contributed to the gap in their evaluation competencies.

Wearable skin-like optoelectronic systems with suppression of motion artifacts for cuff-less continuous blood pressure monitor

According to the statistics of the World Health Organization, an estimated 17.9 million people die from cardiovascular diseases each year, representing 31% of all global deaths. Continuous non-invasive arterial pressure (CNAP) is essential for the management of cardiovascular diseases. However, it is difficult to achieve long-term CNAP monitoring with the daily use of current devices due to irritation of the skin as well as the lack of motion artifacts suppression. Here, we report a high-performance skin-like optoelectronic system integrated with ultra-thin flexible circuits to monitor CNAP. We introduce a theoretical model via the virtual work principle for predicting the precise blood pressure and suppressing motion artifacts, and propose optical difference in the frequency domain for stable optical measurements in terms of skin-like devices. We compare the results with the blood pressure acquired by invasive (intra-arterial) blood pressure monitoring for >1500 min in total on 44 subjects in an intensive care unit. The maximum absolute errors of diastolic and systolic blood pressure were ±7/±10 mm Hg, respectively, in immobilized, and ±10/±14 mm Hg, respectively, in walking scenarios. These strategies provide advanced blood pressure monitoring techniques, which would directly address an unmet clinical need or daily use for a highly vulnerable population.     

Identifying needs and enhancing learning about climate change adaptation for water professionals at the post-graduate level

Using a participatory learning approach, we report on the delivery and evaluation of a climate change and risk assessment tool to help manage water risks within the agricultural sector. Post-graduate water-professional students from a range of countries, from both developed and emerging economies were involved in using this tool. Our approach included participative learning tools – group discussion, software, and risk matrices. The materials developed met the needs of the students, allowing these students to incorporate their learning and adapt the package of materials for use in their home countries. Analysis of evaluations show that the tools and materials are particularly useful and emphasizes the need for sound learning materials and tools, funding to deliver training, and policy support to accelerate education and adoption of authentic climate change adaptation practices. The expected benefits for water professionals about climate change will be translated into improved socioeconomic and environmental outcomes if adopted.

HIGH TECHNOLOGY,EMPLOYMENT AND THE CHALLENGES TO EDUCATION

The contribution of employment in high technology industry to future employment growth in the US economy is estimated to be small. Much high technology employment is not professional work at all, but routine labour, and much of that performed by minority groups with few career opportunities. Most new jobs will occur in occupations requiring no more than secondary education. High technology may generate employment in other areas, but often low grade work performed in the “homework economy”. Appropriate education for employment in high technology industry and in computer-related fields is not necessarily specialised and technical; high-quality general education is probably more important. Instrumental education, ignorant of the demands of high technology, and of the demands a modern economy makes upon high technology, is likely to be counter-productive. Commercial and technical success requires a combination of cultural learning and technical skill.     

ZnO半导体光催化处理含酚废水的研究

利用中压汞灯作光源，ＺｎＯ为催化剂，研究了辐射波长、ＺｎＯ－酚悬浮液组成和搅拌方式等因素对酚分解率的影响．ＺｎＯ半导体光催化分解酚的适宜条件为：辐射波长３６０～４２０ｎｍ，ＺｎＯ－酚悬浮液的含酚量＜２００ｍｇ／ｌ，ＺｎＯ浓度３～８ｇ／ｌ，ｐＨ＝５～７，反应温度２５℃～４０℃，空气搅拌．酚的分解机理可能涉及酚与光生空穴反应和酚与辐照过程中产生的·ＯＨ自由基反应两条途径     

礼仪教育在高职德育中的作用

高职院校开展礼仪教育是加强德育工作的措施之一，是对学生进行思想教育的重要内容。加强礼仪教育必须从强化基本道德教育和训练文明行为两个方面进行。
