Following a paper an the Japanese educational system, this study of the Education of engineers in Japan is the result of a joint reflection by the two authors. Both are engineers in a large french company with an international vocation, and they undertook this analysis with full knowledge of the facts. The selective nature of training in Japan is underlined, in relation with numerous industrialized countries, the authors included significant elements of comparison; in particular, a comparative analysis of the output flow shows a coherence, if one takes into consideration the range of competing and complementary programmes.
Cette étude sur la formation des ingénieurs au Japon résulte de la reflexion commune des deux auteurs. Tous deux, ingénieurs dans une grande société francaise à vocation internationale, ont pu élaborer ce travail d'analyse en toute connaissance de cause tant pour le Japon que pour la France. Elle est complétée par une rapide comparaison des formations el des flux pour six pays industrialisés. 相似文献
Underlined by the belief that teachers' critical awareness of their actions is a vital issue in education, this study examines the insights that evolved from a long-term collaboration among seven doctoral students. To prepare for our comprehensive examinations, we collaborated as a study group for one and one-half years. Adopting the dual roles of listener-researcher and narrator-participant, we engaged in dialogue and narrative to convey to each other the meaning of our collaborative experiences. From grounded theory analysis, four elements of collaboration emerged: logistics, social dynamics, empowerment, and change. In order to convey the meaning of our experiences, we create a multiplicity of meanings based on our diverse and lived personal narratives. Finally, our collaborative process challenges academic administrations to examine how well their current policies encourage personal autonomy and cooperative learning approaches for students involved in preparing for their comprehensive examinations. 相似文献
This article analyses the experiences of women teachers in boys' schools by examining a case-study school. It is argued that whilst there had been a large numerical increase in women at the school, partly as the unanticipated consequence of recent government reforms, the degree of 'feminisation' was much smaller. Teaching style and negative pupils' reactions, undermining by colleagues, exclusion from staff meetings and sexual harassment emerged as important dimensions of these women's experience. The women were not a homogeneous group, however, and two ideal type groupings emerged which offered different interpretations of their situation, contrasting conceptions of what a feminised school would look like and different strategies for feminising the school. It is argued that for many of the women the women's group played an important role in enabling them to redefine their situation collectively. 相似文献
The coronal and sagittal plane leg movements of 24 experienced male cyclists were assessed using video analysis while cycling on a Kingcycle windload simulator. The cyclists were grouped into those with a history of injury and an asymptomatic group on the basis of self-reported injury status. The ages, cycling experience, competition distances and competition speeds of the two groups were compared using Student's t-test. No significant differences (P?<0.05) were found for any of these variables. The maximum and minimum shank adduction, shank adduction velocities, knee flexion and ankle dorsiflexion values were also compared using Student's t-test. Significant differences were found at the point of maximum adduction (1.9°; P?=?0.019) and minimum dorsiflexion (4.9°; P?=?0.014). These differences indicated more dorsiflexion and greater abduction on the part of the symptomatic cyclists, supporting previous research that found that cyclists with a history of injury differ from those without a history of injury in the coronal plane leg movement patterns they adopt. Also, the most extreme medial position of the knee relative to the ankle occurred during knee extension. This supports the potential injury mechanism proposed by Francis (1986), which had previously only been examined using coronal plane kinematics. 相似文献
Counselor education suffers from a lack of emphasis on evaluation of counselor training programs. In response to this problem, a systems analysis-based approach to evaluation is presented and discussed. The approach, which involves performance testing and system monitoring, has sufficient flexibility to be used in programs with divergent theoretical orientations. 相似文献
