Instructional methods and languages in class: A comparison of two teaching approaches and two teaching languages in the field of intercultural learning

The article presents the results of a quasi-experimental intervention study with a 2 × 2 factorial design. We implemented a problem-based intercultural learning unit in four secondary schools (grades 9 to 12) and varied the teaching approach (analytical/affective-experiential) and the language of instruction (German/English). The learning unit covered six 45-min lessons and was conducted in nine school courses (n = 143). Five additional school courses (n = 66) served as a control group. In all experimental groups, students engaged with critical incidents. These were either analysed (analytical focus) or acted out as role plays (affective-experiential focus). In addition, students analysed film clips (analytical focus) or participated in a simulation game (affective-experiential focus). The experimental groups outperformed the control group in the post-test, which required the analysis of critical incidents. Both teaching approaches were equally effective; however, students evaluated affective-experiential learning more positively. Using a foreign language for teaching did not impair performance.

基于批判性思维和创造力的我国大学生信息素养教育模式研究

信息素养、批判性思维、创造力是21世纪大学生必需掌握的核心技能,研究并揭示三者的内在影响机制,对于促进高等教育信息素养教育观念的转变,制订信息素养标准,进而优化信息素养教育模式,具有重要意义。本文采用问卷调查方法获取我国大学生信息素养、批判性思维能力和创造力状况的基本数据。通过回归分析和中介效应分析发现:信息素养、批判性思维对创造力影响显著,批判性思维在信息素养对创造力的影响中存在显著中介效应。通过路径分析发现:信息评估能力和信息利用能力通过批判性思维的中介作用更能促进创造力,信息素养通过分析能力和系统化能力更能够激发创造力,信息搜索能力通过系统化能力能够最大程度激发创造力;信息搜索能力、信息评估能力、信息利用能力是信息素养的核心能力,分析能力、系统化能力是批判性思维的核心能力。研究结果表明:在信息素养教育中融合批判性思维的培养能较大程度地提高大学生的创造力。根据调研结果及相关理论研究,本文提出融合批判性思维的信息素养教育与专业课程教育的整合模式,即ILi CTi C模式,并提出实现该模式的系统方案,以期为推进我国大学生信息素养教育提供参考。     

吴闽语进行体和持续体的语法化序列分析

莆仙方言的进行体和持续体标记来源于处所词,这是吴语和闽语的共同特征.但莆仙方言的这两种体标记来源于处所代词"即、许",而不是方位后缀或动介词,这又不同于吴语与闽语的其他方言.本文先描写莆仙方言的进行体和持续体特征,然后结合吴闽语其他八种方言的资料,分析进行体和持续体标记的语法化序列,从而观察其演变发展的过程.     

跨文化交际的语用对比研究

不同语言在不同化中的语用差异成为跨化交际中的障碍，从称呼用语、打招呼用语、礼貌用语、介绍、问候、寒暄及告别等方面分辨英、汉语的语用差异有利于跨化交际。     

浅谈哲学思维的培养对高等教育的意义

哲学思维的特征和我国高等教育的目标决定了哲学思维的培养对高等教育具有举足轻重的作用，因而高等教育不仅要在知识技能层面把学生培养成有各种分门别类的具体知识和技能的专门人才，而且要注重在思维层面以哲学思维来影响、塑造学生。这样才能实现我国高等教育的目标，培养出不局限于功利意义的真正人才。

‘Upturned participation’ and youth work: using a Critical Utopian Action Research approach to foster engagement

ABSTRACT

This article reflects on how participatory processes inspired by action research hold a genuine potential for developing social educational work in a more democratic way. We present our concept of ‘Upturned Participation’, which is built upon the methodological framework of Critical Utopian Action Research. First Critical Utopian Action Research is introduced briefly, including a presentation of the core method of the action research approach. We then present an extract from an action research project aimed at creating space for participation for marginalized young people in the area of Copenhagen. On this basis, we reflect on how the ideas of the young people could influence the field of social work. The article addresses contemporary challenges and opportunities for creating development in the field of youth work or social work through participatory processes with marginalized young people.     

凹透镜的会聚与发散

本文研究了影响凹透镜成像而产生会聚作用的几种因素，如介质折射率、透镜球面曲率半径等；给出了薄凹透镜发散／会来临界角；辅助透镜临界物距与两透镜焦距、两透镜距离的关系，从而澄清了凹透镜不能会聚产生实像的概念及产生实像的实质。
