NEWSROOM'S NORMAL ACCIDENT?

This study examines 10 recent high-profile cases of journalistic deceptions at major American news organizations, and analyzes deceptive news and authentic news in a comparative perspective. Applying disaster incubation theory and normal accident theory to newsrooms, it focuses on how newsroom organizational culture contributes to journalistic deceptions. Results suggest that prior to the final revelation of a reporter's deception, an incubation period occurs during which a “first flag”—an initial warning signal often related to the reporter's earliest work that gives rise to suspicion of authenticity—is overlooked. The study also identifies patterns in deceptive news that distinguish it from authentic news. Deceptive news stories are more likely than authentic news stories to be filed from a remote location, to be on a story topic conducive to source secrecy, to be on the front page (or magazine cover), to contain more sources, more “diverse” sources and more hard-to-trace sources. It is suggested that editors might use these recognizable patterns to help prevent journalistic deceptions.     

文科专业本科毕业论文抄袭现象的成因及对策

本科论文的抄袭现象日渐普遍,其成因有内因和外因两个方面。内因主要有学生的写作能力、课程设置、老师的指导、学校对论文的要求等;外因主要有学生写作的时间、学校关于论文的执行理念、网络资源的丰富等。针对上述成因,本文提出了加强学生综合素质教育、合理定位本科生毕业论文、加强老师对学生的论文指导及严把质量关等对策和措施。     

学术不端视角下的教育审视与改造

学术不端问题从一个侧面反映了我国教育的缺陷。学术不端问题说明:过去我国的教育以考试为唯一评价方式,致使教育被窄化、束缚性强;过去我国的教育对德育重视不够、育德不力,对学生创新能力的培养和精神砥砺都不够;过去我国的教育缺乏规则意识的培养和基本的学术规范教育,没有教会学生做学问。针对上述问题,我国教育需要进行深入的改造与重建,以培养更多更优秀的人才。     

永远的“国父”——斯大林形象与斯大林主义研究在当代俄罗斯

2013年斯大林逝世60周年之际,俄罗斯和原苏联各加盟共和国的人民以各种方式怀念这位伟大人物。在经历了苏联解体和国家政治经济转轨的阵痛之后,俄罗斯民众更加能够以平和的心态去评价“国父”,斯大林的形象正经历一个“去妖魔化”的转变,斯大林主义研究在俄罗斯也是方兴未艾。     

本科毕业论文抄袭的检测与防范

近年来,本科生毕业论文质量不高且抄袭严重的现象已为大多数高校所关注。本文剖析了本科毕业论文抄袭现象的成因,介绍了现阶段检测本科毕业论文抄袭的常用手段,并提出了相应的防范措施。     

图片中学术不端的类型与防范措施

学术不端行为屡见不鲜。近10年来文本查重工具的出现对学术出版中文字剽窃或重复相似度的检测比对已见成效,但图表中剽窃、篡改及伪造等不端行为却不易察觉和检测。本文主要针对学术出版中各种与图片相关的学术不端案例,进行了系统分析、归类与定义;梳理收集了目前国际上对图片造假、重复和剽窃的鉴别方法、检测工具及效果评估;提出了正确分析图片原创性的一些建议与方法,力求与国内同行共同探讨防止图片中的学术不端行为的标准与规范,确保学术出版回归原创,保护版权。     

从《佩文韵府》、《骈字类编》、《子史精华》看康雍之际的类书编纂

选取诸书中与“月”相关的事类,通过多角度对比,总结《骈字类编》与《佩文韵府》、《骈字类编》与《子史精华》材料之间的相互关系,证明这几部类书在材料的运用上是各自独立的,很大程度上避免了辗转稗贩这一历代类书编纂中的痼疾。     

Questioning Student Learning: an exploration of student's views on learning to become independent nurse prescribers

This illuminative evaluation study gives insights into attitudes to learning, interaction and the perceived roles of theory, evidence, reading and previous experience. These insights lead us to question some aspects of the course as currently presented. Students indicated that they found the course material stimulating but prior guidance on the areas to read before commencing learning would have been helpful. Students were desperate to learn and to be successful, but many were apprehensive about the intensity of the pharmacological content and diagnostic skills that are required to make a clinical diagnosis. Sadly, some students felt that the restriction of the extended nurse formulary, while valuable to their professional development and credibility as a nurse, would not enhance the care that could be provided to patients. This limitation was not realized until the course had commenced. This may have been avoided if an information day had been provided before commencing the course. For many students, a positive finding was the realization of the relevance to practice and the contribution that could be made to everyday nursing care. Future independent nurse prescribing students would benefit from the provision of pre‐course reading, guided studies in pharmacology, normal physiology and physical examination skills before commencing the course of study. The use of a theoretical self‐assessment tool would allow potential students to assess their suitability for the programme. Aspects of student learning need to be discussed early in the programme.
