中国入世与传媒创新(提纲)

１．WTO与中国：挑战和机遇并存近年来，中国已崛起为世界上发展最快的大国。预期２００２年的GDP将增长７．５～８个百分点。以欧洲的视角来看，中国社会正受益于一大批受过高等教育的技艺精湛的人才，他们不畏变革，勇于创新，乐于接受新技术。在这片土地上，变革被真正地看作一个坚实的文化特征，这或许得益于古老的亚洲传统哲学。中国将接受入世的挑战。这或许是漫长和艰难的过程，但终将使中国在市场经验中受益。中国入世将为世界大国注入重要内容。２．WTO与中国传媒产业中国传媒业对世界的开放将是中国在今后的数年里面临的最大…     

Children's interests in geology and biology

A study of students from a primary school and its local secondary school was conducted to investigate students' relative interests in geology and biology during the years prior to Year 10. Students from Years 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 were interviewed, using an innovative interview technique, and results show that interest in both subjects appears to be fairly evenly distributed throughout all years. This paper reports on the study conducted and illustrates the success of the interview technique developed to accommodate all students, especially those from younger year levels. Specializations: science teacher education, biology teacher education. Specializations: economic geology, mineralogy, geological education. Specializations: primary science education.     

The decline in CUNY applications: Who and how come

In the fall of 1976 applications for admission to the City University of New York (CUNY) had dropped sharply. In total number they were down by almost 13,000 from 1974, a drop of approximately 18%. Several hypotheses have been posited for the sharp decline in student applicants to the City University. Analysis of data drawn from the computer printouts of the City University's allocations indicates that the end of open admissions, for example, does not, in and of itself, explain the application drop. Similarly, the change in allocation formulas at CUNY seems not to explain the enrollment decline adequately. Finally, the imposition of tuition, or the perception about tuition, appears by no means the single most important factor in the enrollment drop. This paper attempts to determine the characteristics of the students not applying and to examine the reasons contributing to the sharp enrollment decline.
