Separated and integrated perspectives on environmental,economic, and social dimensions – an investigation of student views on sustainable development

The sustainable development (SD) concept is based on the idea that economic and social development should be linked to the environment. However, controversies about various associated issues often arise due to the differences in protagonists’ viewpoints, depending partly on whether they focus mainly on environmental, economic, or social dimensions and partly on ideological stances related (for instance) to the optimal ways of promoting economic growth and social justice. This study investigates views of 638 Swedish upper secondary students who responded to a questionnaire probing their views of SD from two perspectives. In the first, the dimensions were separately introduced, so the respondents only had to consider one dimension at a time. In the second, the dimensions were introduced in an integrated fashion, so the respondents had to consider effects related to all three dimensions. The results strongly indicate that the students’ views and priorities concerning the dimensions depend on both the perspective and the context. Implications for teaching and learning are discussed.     

谈探究性实验在初中物理教学中的意义与实施

1 探究性实验教学的意义 1.1 从建构主义理论看探究性实验 建构主义(constructivism其理论核心就是:以学生为中心,强调学生对知识的主动探索、主动发现和所学知识意义的主动建构,在探究性实验中,课本中的物理知识对于学生来说都是未知的,让学生自己去主动探究,通过一系列的方法,自己有所发现,有所得.探究性实验在初中物理教学课堂中创造了一个良好的学习环境,让学生通过主动探究来积极建构他们自己的知识,而且以这种方式建构的知识不易退化,并给学生以主动学习的机会,培养他们的创造性思维能力.     

Teaching Orthodox religious education on the border

In geographical areas bordering those of other states, the function of educational systems, as the means for states to foster their citizens, is challenged by ambiguities and tensions connected to intercultural experiences. In this article, I illustrate some of the findings from a project that studies religious education in four border areas around the Baltic Barents Sea, by bringing forward the case of a school teacher who teaches Orthodox religious education (ORE), in a town in Finland close to the border with Russia. Thus, the aim is to present and discuss ORE in Finland as well as to understand what implication the border situation can have on religious education.

高校体育课生理负荷的聚类分析

为了更加深入全面地探讨高校体育课生理负荷强度分布与生理负荷量的特点，避免因不同类型的生理负荷强度分布之间的互相叠加而造成总体分布曲线的偏差，对采集30所高校的458名“标志”学生的16万个数据进行K—Mema聚类分析，分成3类曲线，平均生理负荷强度为：113、132、151次／min，并分别建立了相应的数学模型，用中国高校体育课生理负荷数据分析软件进行分析处理。
