基于普通高中人教版和外研社版英语教材的比较研究

教材是教师向学生传授知识和技巧的工具,也是学生学习知识的主要来源之一。对教材进行分析研究一方面能够让教师对各个版本的教材略知一二,并在教学实践中根据自己所了解的教材对课程目标进行适当的取舍和调整,帮助学生有针对性地学习知识,为教育行政部门提供教材选择的参考和依据,另一方面又能够给教材编写者提供参考意见以对教材的不当之处进行改进。该项研究报告以四川省内较有代表性的外研社版教材和人教社版教材这两种新旧版高中教材进行比较和研究,对教材的研究过程主要使用了两种方法,即文本比较和实证研究。该文试图通过这两种方法对两版教材进行探究,寻找两版之间的共同点和不同点,以及这两版教材各自的优点和不足之处。该文的最终目标是希望能够通过对两版教材的分析研究得出有效的结论,为高中教师更好地认识教材、把握教材,提高英语教学水平和质量提供帮助。     

美俄日英澳5国体育课程标准研究

摘要：为了解国外体育课程标准现状,为我国体育课程改革提供借鉴。采用文献资料法,对美国、英国、澳大利亚、俄罗斯和日本等国体育课程标准的理念、目标、内容、结构和相关社会背景进行了深入地分析。研究发现：1）5国体育课程标准的制定都以现实社会背景为基础;2）以人为本已经成为5国体育课程标准的共同理念;3）5国体育课程标准目标重视技能并兼顾综合素质;4）5国教育标准内容多关注于健康生活方式的养成;5）5国体育课程标准都是总分式递进分层结构体系。据此,本文对我国体育课程标准的修订和完善提出3点建议：1）正视促进学生身体发展等现实需求,重视运动技能;2）注重以人为本,强调学生社会适应能力的培养;3）完善多级课程体系,提高课程标准的科学性和可操作性。     

公允价值在我国新会计准则中的运用研究

公允价值会计因其提供的信息相关性高、决策有用性强而受到国际会计界的高度重视。我国2006年颁布的新会计准则体系,取得了诸多方面的重要突破,其中最大的亮点在于公允价值的引入和运用。中国新会计准则引入公允价值计量属性,有其可靠的理论依据以及特定的经济背景。在公允价值的具体运用方面,则体现了一定的谨慎性特征。至于公允价值的运用能否实现准则制定当局的预期经济目的,关键在于如何保证其可靠性。

Digital Portfolios

Abstract

Educators are faced with developing performance indicators for reporting to state and national agencies on pre-service teacher candidates' ability to teach using innovative pedagogy as well as content-specific standards. Portfolio assessment has gained momentum as a standard in assessing student-learning outcomes. This paper is a discussion of digital portfolio development as a stimulus to the intellectual involvement of the learner (a Type II application). Digital portfolio development is an activity that naturally involves intellectual involvement as the learner identifies the problem (developing the digital portfolio) and then problem solves as he or she creates the digital portfolio. Each student is in control of portfolio development and manipulates the Web-based software to create the professional portfolio.     

Validating Automated Measures of Text Complexity

Automated text complexity measurement tools (also called readability metrics) have been proposed as a way to help teachers, textbook publishers, and assessment developers select texts that are closely aligned with the new, more demanding text complexity expectations specified in the Common Core State Standards. This article examines a critical element of the validity arguments presented in support of proposed metrics: the claim that criterion text complexity scores developed from students’ responses to reading comprehension test items are reflective of the difficulties actually experienced by students while reading. Evidence that fails to support this assertion is examined, and implications relative to the goal of obtaining valid, unbiased evidence about the measurement properties of proposed readability metrics are discussed.     

An Analysis of Undergraduate Students' Search Behaviors in an Information Literacy Class

The purpose of this project was to investigate how students' search strategies changed over the course of a semester-long information literacy class. Data collection included four different paper questionnaires corresponding to course content in the spring 2008 semester. Seventy-seven participants completed the questionnaires and course work in the class. Results showed that participants' demographics did not have any impact on their selection of search keywords. While participants reported better search experiences with more search keywords, they were not able to develop more sophisticated search keywords after receiving more instruction and search experience. The participants who did develop more sophisticated search keywords had better search experiences and a higher rate of satisfaction with their research results. Future studies should examine what enabled these participants to develop more sophisticated search keywords.

中国军人体质的评价标准与综合评价方法

利用百分位数法为所选指标制定评分标准,并在此基础上利用逐步回归分析的方法建立体质综合评价的数学模型,对军人体质综合评价方法进行了探索。在各项指标贡献率的确定上,采用的是经逐步回归分析得来的“标准化偏回归系数”与“简单相关系数”的乘积。在对每一个样本各项选中指标进行评分之后,进行逐步回归分析,建立了体质总体、身体形态、身体机能、身体素质、有氧耐力和力量素质共6种体质评价的数学模型。这些模型的建立以及评价标准的制定为计算机评价系统的实现提供了基本算法,也为《中国军人体质评价系统软件》的开发提供了可能。
