中国参与世界记忆项目:理念、路径与展望

中国与世界记忆项目的互动是双向促进的过程。我国遵循以构建人类命运共同体为价值追求、以传承人类共同记忆为基本使命、立足于从"遗产大国"迈向"遗产强国"的切实需求、致力于打造文献遗产保护的典范样本等理念,从"引进—融合—延伸—反哺"等路径着手,积极参与世界记忆项目。未来,由"参与者"转向"引导者"、由"遗产本体"延伸至"背景关联"、由"单一沟通"建立起"多元对话"将成为我国参与世界记忆项目的三大重点着力方向。     

The Effectiveness of the Responsive Teaching Parent-mediated Developmental Intervention Programme in Turkey: A pilot study

The case study was conducted to examine the feasibility of an early intervention curriculum called Responsive Teaching with two five-year-old children from Turkey who had significant developmental delays. This study determined whether Turkish mothers might be successful in learning to become more responsive to their children, and whether this would result in significant improvements in their children’s development. Both dyads received 28 individual parent–child intervention sessions which were conducted over a four-month period of time. Pre-, mid-, and post-assessments indicated improvements in the mothers’ responsiveness to their children and the children’s levels of engagement with their parents. There were also improvements in the children’s language and personal social development. Mothers reported that Responsive Teaching helped them learn to interact more effectively with their children and that this resulted in longer and more enjoyable interactions with them. Results from this investigation are discussed in terms of their implications for providing developmental services to preschool-aged children with disabilities in Turkey.     

Does the “Pupil Enterprise Programme” Influence Grades Among Pupils With Special Needs?

This paper asks whether the Pupil Enterprise Programme (PEP) is a suitable working method for improving academic performance among pupils with special needs. Overall, 20% of pupils participate in PEP at some point during lower secondary school. Results from multilevel regression modelling indicate that pupils with special needs who have participated in PEP attain better grades in Written Norwegian and Mathematics than those pupils with special needs who did not participate in PEP. The difference between PEP participants and non-participants in Written English was insignificant. The positive results for Norwegian and Mathematics seem to be related to the organisation and content of PEP. The data are from a study of 1,880 pupils in the 10th Grade.     

“体力波”理论在高校课余体育训练中的运用

以“体力波”理论为依据，结合“生日节律”周期，利用波的叠加原理，为运动员设立具有一定起伏波动性的训练计划。使得运动员原来固有的体力波线，由于外界不断增长的相同频率的“负荷波”的叠加而改变，并逐步形成一条合成的波动曲线，这一波线在比赛时能达到运动能力的最高峰。     

欧盟高等教育的自我救赎

欧盟于2014年1月1日以147亿欧元预算启动“伊拉斯谟加强版”,力图在2020年前打造教育国际化标杆并实现欧盟高等教育全球战略。通过塑造一代又一代“伊拉斯谟学子”,欧盟意在赢取未来。当下,欧盟深陷经济与信任双重危机无法自拔,被寄寓厚望的欧盟教育也失守宗庙,表现为三大缺失,即青春梦想的缺失、标杆效应的缺失和全球视野的缺失。由此,欧盟高等教育全球战略的实质与意图昭然若揭———危机时代的自我救赎与全球时代的人才争夺。在实质与意图的张力之间,欧盟高等教育的身份认同深陷双重二律背反,即融合与差异、中心与边缘。三条原则可供欧盟高等教育实现自我救赎：以本土高等教育质量为核心,以培育全球公民为目标,以国家文化软实力为基础。     

论矿物材料计算与设计

矿产资源产业是国民经济的基础产业,非金属矿产是重要的固体矿产之一,80%的矿物用于材料工业,矿物加工是矿产资源高效利用、制备矿物材料的重要加工技术环节,矿物材料是国民经济中高新技术材料的重要组成,材料科学及矿物材料学科的发展,为矿物材料计算与设计理论的提出奠定了实际基础.借鉴材料设计与计算的理论和方法,在总结、分析和研究矿物加工及矿物材料制备方面大量的理论研究和实际成果的基础上,提出了矿物材料计算与设计及功能性矿物材料、复合材料化学改性药剂分子设计与模拟的学术思想,论述了矿物材料计算与设计的基本科学技术问题、研究内容、相关学科体系、研究层次及其学科地位.其意义在于:使矿物加工工程学科发展和功能性矿物材料的研发,建立在基本科学原理基础之上,将矿物加工工程学科的主要研究内容统一在总体的方向、目标之内,横向拓展了相关学科理论的研究范围;根据矿物结构、组成,通过设计与计算,对矿物材料性能进行预测、预报,进而为制备提供最佳技术路线;对于已知性能的矿物材料优化制备路线,系统分析各种矿物的结构与组成及其所具备固有性质,针对各种材料性质要求,排列对应关系,为复合材料的制备奠定基础,进而实现矿物资源的高效开发和利用,同时,使得材料设计或计算材料的学科基础向研究矿物组成与结构的纵向延伸,丰富了材料科学思想.     

中方机构参与欧盟框架计划的现状及问题研究

对欧科技合作是中国国际科技合作的重要组成部分,而欧盟框架计划内的中欧科技合作是目前的主要合作渠道。欧盟框架计划是全球最大的多国合作的官方科技计划之一,也是中国科学家参与高水平国际科技合作的重要平台。本文介绍了中国参与欧盟框架计划的现状,探讨了制约中方机构参与欧盟框架计划的几个问题,提出了促进中方机构参与欧盟研发计划的对策和建议。     

Teaching and evaluating instructor effectiveness using the instructor effectiveness questionnaire and the instructor effectiveness check sheet combination

Abstract

This article describes the use of two linked instruments, the Instructor Effectiveness Check Sheet (IEC) and Instructor Effectiveness Questionnaire (IEQ). The use of an evaluation instrument during a course can enable improvements to be made — even with experienced instructors. Detail can be taken from the IEC and IEQ to find obvious and not so obvious needed changes and attention to individuals in the group. The article gives an example where the instruments were used to teach instructors about different pedagogical constructs, describes further research using the instruments at the Nantahala Outdoor Center, USA, and describes a case study on a wilderness education group that illustrated improvement in effective teaching.
