知识探究导向的层次化教学方法研究与实践

主动学习、探究知识是工程教育需要培养的关键能力,其培养方法和效果评估一直是工程教育界研究和关注的重点。本文结合汕头大学CDIO和OBE工程教学实践,提出一种融合发现式教学和接受式教学于一体的层次化教学方法,通过合理分组,翻转课堂,课堂监控、评价与反思,构建类Cache→Memory→Peripheral memory结构化存储的教学系统,实现工程教学与思维能力整合的协同。论文通过分析专业引导性较强的"工程设计导论"、理论性较强的"电工学"、应用性较强的"微机原理"等课程的教学过程数据,证明了该方法有助于加强并改善师生联系,调动学生学习的积极性和主动性,最终达到改善学习效果的目的。     

Spread or Sacrifice: Dilemma for Lighting Policies

ABSTRACT

Light sensitive objects will fade on display. Collection managers and curators face the dilemma whether to spread fading over several similar objects or sacrifice one. This paper describes an experiment in which participants were asked how they would want to pass on a collection of seventeenth century hand-coloured maps to coming generations. Results show that while colour changes are hardly visible, both public and professionals do not perceive them as damage and prefer to spread fading. Once fading becomes clearly visible in all maps, the preference shifts to sacrificing one map. The tipping point lies around five just noticeable changes. This information can be used when selecting objects for exhibition. The outcome also implies it would be prudent to assess the degree of fading of much exhibited objects and consider whether and when to choose for a sacrifice strategy.     

OER evaluation as a means of teaching information literacy in individual and small group settings

ABSTRACT

Open education resources represent a great opportunity to reduce textbook costs, but many of them have not been evaluated for quality. Librarians and former students in an introduction to engineering course collected and evaluated open education resources to supplement the course textbook in future semesters. Both searching for and evaluating these resources created opportunities for the librarians to evaluate information literacy skills of these students and to provide instruction to improve these skills.     

Research universities on the ResearchGate social networking site: An examination of institutional differences,research activity level,and social networks formed

As one of the largest active academic social networking sites, ResearchGate (RG) has been utilized by scholars to share publications, seek collaborators, communicate work in progress, and build scholarly reputation. This study collects data from RG users from 61 U.S. research universities at different research activity levels, as categorized by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education, to examine the impact of institutional differences on RG reputational metrics. The results confirm that RG is a research-oriented academic social networking site that closely and realistically mirrors the research activity level of institutions. With an increase in the research activity level of a university, its affiliated RG users tend to have higher RG scores, more publications and citations, and more profile views and followers, while the average number of reads of their publications and followees tend to be lower and fluctuant. In addition, RG users primarily follow others from institutions of a higher research activity level, forming virtual social networks centered around esteemed institutions. The study suggests academic social networks can serve as indicators in evaluation of research activities among research institutions, and such sites can be helpful and credible for acquiring resources, keeping informed about research, and promoting academic influence.     

试探"合作学习"在《体育与健康》教学中的运用

《体育与健康》课程标准的出台意味着该课程的全面转型,学习方式的转变是其核心问题之一。本文结合教学实际,揭示了在传统体育课教学中被忽视的合作学习的重要性,从不同角度分析了新课程实施合作学习的条件,并进一步提出了实施合作学习的要点。     

群体性纠纷的示范诉讼解决机理与构造

在群体性纠纷解决过程中, 群意表达易被集体意旨所表征而成为公开文本, 但群体成员个体表意的隐藏文本并不能有效转化为合意而被吸纳其中、 并在最终影响群体司法正义的实现. 既有群体司法虽通过直觉法中的情理因素涵摄以及法庭的非社会化给予响应, 但也由此造成了群体性司法诉讼效率与共识达成的现代化之殇. 德国针对私人投资者建立的首个示范性诉讼立法实践表明: 通过示范诉讼契约吸纳当事人诉讼处分合意,可改善群体司法对每一个当事人的诉讼权保障程度; 通过诉讼退出制, 可协调无法达成 "集体意旨" 的少数当事人另行起诉; 灵活运用包括胜诉酬金制在内的起诉激励, 也在一定程度上纾解了群体性诉讼巨型化的困局.     

社会学视角下的温州人群体意识的分析研究

本文首先对意识和群体意识进行了较为简略的综述,然后分别运用迪尔凯姆的"社会事实"、韦伯的"社会行为"和吉登斯的"社会结构"等社会学理论对温州社会进行了分析研究,试图从中探讨出温州人的群体意识中的问题,最后,通过社会学的理论为其指出改正的方向。

Counseling With HEART: A Relationship Violence Prevention Program for College Students

Relationship violence is a salient concern on college campuses today, and psychoeducational groups may be an appropriate prevention format. This article describes a study measuring the impact of college student participation in the HEART (Help End Abusive Relationships Today) program, a series of group sessions designed to increase knowledge and awareness of relationship violence. Findings indicated significant changes for group participants postintervention. Implications and recommendations for college counselors are discussed.
