Professional knowledge or motivation? Investigating the role of teachers’ expertise on the quality of technology-enhanced lesson plans

In an expertise study with 94 mathematics teachers varying in their relative teacher expertise (i.e., student teachers, trainee teachers, in-service teachers), we examined effects of teachers' professional knowledge and motivational beliefs on their ability to integrate technology within a lesson plan scenario. Therefore, we assessed teachers' professional knowledge (i.e., content knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge, technological knowledge), and their motivational beliefs (i.e., self-efficacy, utility-value). Furthermore, teachers were asked to develop a lesson plan for introducing the Pythagorean theorem to secondary students. Lesson plans by advanced teachers (i.e., trainee teachers, in-service teachers) comprised higher levels of instructional quality and technology exploitation than the ones of novice teachers (i.e., pre-service teachers). The effect of expertise was mediated by teachers' perceived utility-value of educational technology, but not by their professional knowledge. These findings suggest that teachers’ motivational beliefs play a crucial role for effectively applying technology in mathematics instruction.     

大学英语教学应重视交互式教学模式

交互式教学模式是教学中经常使用的一种方法。这种教学模式有利于调动学生学习语言的积极性、主动性和创造性 ,提高学生的语言表达能力。国外采用自主和交互式教学模式培养学生的一些成功事例 ,为我国外语教学在培养外语人才提供了有益的启示。

中、日、美、英体育教学发展共同趋向研究

世纪之交,为了适应本国社会发展的需要,中国、日本、美国和英国都在深化体育教学改革。运用比较分析法等研究方法,对中、日、美、英体育教学的发展动向进行了研究。研究发现:中、日、美、英体育教学目标向着健康化、终身化、多元化的方向发展;体育教学内容越来越关注学生身心健康发展和终身体育的需要,体育教学评价更加注重过程性评价和个体评价,评价内容日益多元化。     

异化理论与媒介批判

本文从马克思的“异化理论”与卢卡奇的“物化理论”出发 ,对媒介批判的内容与目的进行了反思 ,提出媒介批判的内容应涉及“媒介产品的异化”、“媒介活动本身的异化”、“媒介组织与媒介从业者的异化”、“媒介组织与其他参照物之间的异化”等诸多层面 ,媒介批判的目的就是从当今社会媒介的异化现象出发 ,找寻媒介“扬弃异化”的方法与途径 ,在批判与超越中使人们逐渐摆脱被自己创造物“奴役”的状况 ,从而实现社会个体与社会整体的自由发展与全面进步。

我国体育新闻传播教育的现状、问题及发展方向

采用文献资料和实证调查等研究方法,对我国体育新闻传播教育状况进行研究。认为:由于新闻事业和体育事业的迅猛发展以及国家教育政策的调整,使我国体育新闻传播专业办学规模不断扩大,呈现报考和招收人数持续上升与体育新闻传播专业教育“硬件不硬、软件太软”的矛盾。提出:应遵循体育新闻传播教育的办学规律,进一步整合资源,调整结构,加强软、硬件建设,提高教学质量,实现体育新闻传播教育的可持续发展。     

The impact of digital technology on archival science

Archival science is to be regarded as a system. The properties of that system can be investigated and integrated. The methodology to do so has been tested in two research projects which are presented in this article as examples of the way in which the view of archival science as a system supports the development of new knowledge and as a demonstration of the stability of archival theory. This article presupposes that the archival discipline is also a “science”. Many have argued against the idea on the basis of a common perception that a science is a type of study entirely objective by virtue of the rigorous manner in which it is carried out and the restricted range of topics to which it applies. In fact, the activity of science is based upon a complex framework of assumptions that make it possible for the landscape of the scientific endeavour to be redrawn over time, and, while striving towards objectivity, considers it to be an unattainable ideal.     

关于三段论一般规则存在依据的思考

三段论理论是人类有史以来第一个真正的理论体系.选择有效式是构造三段论理论重要的一环.三段论一般规则是一种最简单实用的选择方法,但却存在理由不足的缺陷.包含关系的概念内涵之间所具有的蕴涵关系,能够单一地引申或者说充分地论证三段论全部一般规则,甚至能直接识别出三段论每一个具体的有效式,从而为采用一般规则做有效式选择标准的三段论理论提供了可靠的理论依据.
