英国文化委员会的语言推广策略

当今世界,语言推广与文化传播已经成为各国增强国家软实力、提升国际地位的重要战略举措.为了维护并加强英国的国际地位,最大化英国的国家利益,英国政府于1934年设立了英国文化委员会这一海外英语推广和文化传播的准官方机构,积极推进英国的国际文化教育交流活动.英国文化委员会作为文化外交组织,其在语言文化推广方面所取得的成功是史无前例的.而世界“汉语热”持续升温,汉语正在迅速地以文化为依托向世界传播,这迫切需要我们总结发达国家推广语言、传播文化的经验、学习他们的成功方法,以制定出适合我国国情的语言文化推广方针和政策.以英国文化委员会为中心进行语言文化推广策略的研究,正好可以为汉语国际推广的核心机构—孔子学院的发展提供有益的参照和借鉴.     

Today and in Perpetuity: A Canadian Consortial Strategy for Owning and Hosting Ebooks

The Ontario Council of University Libraries (OCUL) is a provincial consortium of twenty-one publicly funded universities in Ontario, Canada. A consortially-built platform called Scholars Portal is our digital library for archiving ebook content and making it available 24/7 to university students and faculty. An Ebooks Committee has responsibility for coordinating the consortial acquisition of ebooks, within the context of an Information Resources Committee. This paper discusses the consortial strategy and philosophy for ebook licensing in OCUL, which involve a focus on ownership and local loading rights, for dual purposes of preservation and immediate access. Key processes, tools, and accomplishments of this innovative service model are highlighted.

The development of solution focused multi‐agency meetings in a psychological service

This article outlines the successful development of multi‐agency meetings as part of a staged approach aimed at supporting families and children within the Scottish Highland Council Area. Drawing on the research evidence for the factors which help to make meetings effective, a distinctive meeting structure was developed. This structure is outlined – including the key solution‐focused principles which underpin it. Two main evaluations focused on gathering the views of multi‐agency partners, head teachers, parents and voluntary organisations regarding the effectiveness of these meetings. Resulting improvements are reported along with a discussion of the limitations and strengths and the future of the meetings.

北极海洋资源利用的国际机制及中国应对

气候变化使人类利用北极海洋资源成为可能,但少有研究涉及包括北极理事会在内的国际机制在北极海洋资源利用中的价值和作用方式,及其与环境保护之间互动机理的动态发展。对北极海洋资源利用的国际机制进行研究,有利于更好地利用北极海洋资源并为维护中国在北极的权益提供科学依据和参考意义。在气候变化的影响下,以往因海域结冰而无法利用的航运、油气、渔业等海洋资源被开发的机会和潜力显著增强,并吸引了各利益攸关方的浓厚兴趣。通过对北极海洋资源利用潜力和环境风险及相应的国际治理机制进行分析,发现：①具有分区主义特性的《联合国海洋法公约》和以议题为基础的一系列国际组织和国际法律文书共同构成了有关北极海洋资源利用的国际机制;②北极理事会在治理海洋资源利用的过程中,扮演了提供知识产品、协调北极国家一致意见、提升政治意愿、联络相关主管国际组织的角色,但其区域主义的治理路径缺乏对外部利益、人类共同利益以及海洋整体利益的考虑;③在跨领域的北极海洋资源利用问题上,现有的国际机制忽视了海洋的整体性,在解决资源利用与海洋生态环境保护之间的关系上力有不逮,既有的国际机制亟需能够容纳域外利益攸关者的国际合作。中国应在海洋命运共同体理念的指引下,继续拓宽在北极理事会内外参与北极治理的多维渠道,有技巧地维护中国在北极地区的国家利益。

Student voices: Re-conceptualising and re-positioning Australian library and information science education for the twenty-first century

This paper reports on the preliminary research findings of the sub-study group of a larger undertaking, the Australian Learning and Teaching Council (ALTC) priority project Re-conceptualising and Re-positioning Australian Library and Information Science Education for the Twenty-first Century. It examines student experiences of library and information science (LIS) education across both the tertiary and vocational education sectors in Australia. The student sub-study group’s task was to provide the student/recent graduate perspective on LIS education in Australia. The research considered four major themes to find out how students and recent graduates felt about LIS education in Australia. The themes were: learning opportunities; learner attributes; learning experiences; and learner outcomes. In the second half of 2010, self-administered anonymous web questionnaires and focus groups were used to explore issues such as student demographics, socio-economic backgrounds, past experiences, expectations and rationale behind course choices. In addition the destinations of graduates were explored. Key findings suggest there are various pathways that students take to achieve a LIS qualification in Australia; students are generally optimistic about the future of the LIS profession, and consider that technology will continue to play a key role in future career options; they stress the importance of practical workplace experiences as part of course structure; their satisfaction levels with current courses are high and students feel confident they have been provided with the skills required to begin their professional life.
