人与生产力

历史是通过人的活动创造的，历史又有着自己的规律，人是在自己意识支配下活动的，历史却并不完全遵照人的意识。马克思主义不到人以外寻找历史规律，却又把人置于历史规律即生产力发展进程之中。人是生产力的创造者，生产力又创造着人。     

The Provision for Personal, Social, Health Education (PSHE) and Citizenship in School-based Elements of Primary Initial Teacher Education

This small-scale research study looks at the PSHE/Citizenship framework and the opportunities for student teachers to understand and experience within school the relationship between values, personal and social development and learning. A questionnaire was given to two sets of student teachers on their final school-based placements. The research suggests that there needs to be greater recognition of the centrality of multi-cultural awareness and understanding within the political literacy section of the PSHE/Citizenship framework. This is the counterpart to a previous study of the opportunities for values education within the university-based elements of Primary Initial Teacher Education ( Mead, 2003 ).     

Should Children Attend Their Parent's Funerals?

The paper discusses elements of the findings of 'Iceberg', a doctoral study at the University of York addressing many issues of child bereavement through a retrospective study of nearly one hundred individuals who had either experienced the death of a parent when they were at school, or were the surviving parent of such a child. The research revealed issues of lack of control and information for children after a parental death. Forty-seven per cent of those in the study attended the funeral of their parent. There was correlation between the age of children and attendance at the funeral. Of the fifty-three per cent of children not attending, twenty-four per cent of them were forbidden to attend, whilst eleven per cent of them were distracted from attending the funeral, such as being sent to school or a neighbours and being unaware that it was taking place. None of the children attending the funeral reported any negative experiences, and two thirds of them reported it as a positive or helpful event. In contrast, over three-quarters of those not attending later wished that they had. Over a third had feelings of regret, others feeling that they had been excluded from the family at the time of the death, and felt anger, hurt, and frustration. The conclusion was that the best strategy is to give children informed choice about whether or not to attend. If children do attend a negative outcome seems unlikely, but it would be prudent to prepare them as to what to expect at the ceremony.     

Invisible children? The need for support groups for siblings of disabled children

Previous research and first-hand experience suggest that a child with a disability can have a profound effect on family life. Although the need for sibling support has been acknowledged in legislation, the implications for non-disabled siblings remain unclear. In this article, Angie Naylor, lecturer in psychology, and Phil Prescott, senior lecturer in childhood and youth studies, both based at Edge Hill, review a number of key themes emerging from the literature on sibling support. They go on to report the findings from an in-depth study of one sibling support group. The work was carried out in partnership with Barnardo's in the north-west of England and involved setting up a sibling support group, in response to an analysis of local need, and evaluating its impact. This research indicates a clear need for further service provision to meet the needs of the siblings of disabled children who attended the scheme. Angie Naylor and Phil Prescott argue for a reinvigorated debate about the needs of such children and champion the importance of listening to children and valuing what they have to say. The results of this small-scale evaluation project have clear implications for future research and, potentially, for policy and practice.

Basic skill requirements for selected Army occupational training courses

This study investigated the basic cognitive skills soldiers must possess before entering the Army, skills that are needed for successful completion of entry-level training. Judgments of 126 instructors from 25 military occupational specialties were obtained on 129 candidate skills, which resulted in the identification of 55 basic skills. Factor analysis of these 55 skill items resulted in 11 interpretable factors. Mean scores on the factors were compared across factors and across Army training schools. The results of the study suggest that, for all occupational specialties studied, skills related to the learning process are as crucial as traditional academic skills for successful training course completion. These results have important implications for training for the Army as well as for industry.     

创新社会管理视角下微博治理问题与对策

＂微博问政＂在社会政治生活中的地位已显得越来越重要。事实证明,政府只要合理利用微博,是有利于创新社会管理的。但是,当下政府在管理微博过程中还存在一些不足,具体表现为：管理过程缺乏法律规范;治理措施相对滞后;对微博的利用率还比较低等等。因此,政府需要合理地利用和管理微博,以更好地传播其＂为人民服务＂的执政理念,促进和谐社会的构建。     

杨时“诚”论探源与发微

被誉为＂程学正宗＂的杨时,是南宋之际理学的重要传人。他非常推崇《中庸》一书,特别对其中＂诚＂这一价值核心进行了清晰而明确的阐发。在兼综二程＂诚＂说的基础上,杨时积极探寻＂诚＂的内涵,力求通过＂诚之＂的工夫即＂致曲＂将作为本体的天道与作为主体的人道统一起来,同时把＂诚＂论加以推衍,将《中庸》＂诚＂说与《大学》＂格物致知＂、＂诚意正心＂之道联结起来阐释＂合内外之道＂。杨时的思想承洛启闽,对后世特别是朱熹和王阳明的思想起到较大的影响。     

明清徽商妇社会分工的商品化倾向

明清时期,商品经济发展愈益繁荣,商人阶层在整个社会中的地位不断上升,“士农工商”的传统阶层界限被逐渐打破,商人享有的权利比以往更广泛。徽州作为传统中国社会的一个典型的区域,随着徽商活动领域和范围的不断拓展,家中日常琐事几乎都由徽商妇人来完成的。同时,徽商妇作为一个特殊的群体,不再仅仅是传统的家庭角色,男耕女织模式在一定程度上被打破,她们与商品市场联系更加密切,其劳作的各方面都受到市场需求的支配。
