INTRODUCTION Urban housing is a “unique product” with three peculiarities (Harsman and Quigley, 1991): (1) Com-plexity of housing. As a kind of complicated goods, housing can meet a great variety of a family’s demands and be closely related to such activities as residents’ life, work, amusement, etc.; (2) Fixity of housing. Housing directly relates to urban land in special location. The movement of housing is basi-cally impossible under the present technological conditions, with res…  相似文献

Creativity is seen as important to society by the current Prime Minister and the Department for Education and Skills and is present in curriculum documents applying from birth to 16 years old but with various shades of meaning. Unfortunately, the term creativity is used in English education and the larger society without a clear definition. The author argues that for creativity to truly underpin education there needs to be an agreed definition of creativity.  相似文献

charge,cost,price,fee,fare及expense等都是使用频率很高的词,其中除了fee,fare和expense属于大学英语四级词外,其余均属中学阶段常用词。在Collins COBUILD语料库中,charge,cost和price属五星级词,使用频率最高;fee为四星级词;fare和expense星级低些(三星级词),但其使用频率也是算较高的。我国学生虽然也经常使用到这些词,但用法上相互混淆误用的情况却长期居高不下。请看以下实例:  相似文献

This article explores consequences for children’s education in custodial institutions in a contemporary market society, England and Wales. It finds that policy decision-making designed to ‘transform’ prison education for children is primarily influenced by a desire to limit the cost to the public purse of custodial placements. This paper argues that market values influence decision-making in the youth custody sector and shape the nature and quality of provision that children are permitted to access. The consequences associated with this include further fragmentation of prison provision for children, an imbalance in the types of custodial place made available, (with children disproportionately contained in the cheapest type of provision), geographical discrepancies and persistent high re-offending rates. The concern with the costs of custody is particularly prominent in a society subject to ‘austerity’ measures across a wide range of public services, particularly in the criminal justice sector (Ismail, 2020). However, it is inconsistent with contemporary knowledge and understanding of children in custody, their needs and their vulnerabilities. The transformation supposedly sought is unlikely to materialize while annual cost-per-child place is a dominant driving force. Instead, we need to start with an understanding of what individual support children in prison need in order to be ‘education ready’.  相似文献

I analyze how elementary and secondary private schools decide which students to admit from their applicant pool using mechanism design theory. The problem for an individual private school of who to admit and how much to charge in tuition, is complicated by the existence of peer-effects: the value students place on attending school is increasing with the average ability of the entire class at that school. This feature, coupled with the fact that students can always attend public school for free, places constraints on the types of classes the private school can admit. In my model, students have an ability type that is known to the school through testing, as well as a wealth type that is private information. Students report their wealth to the school and on the basis of the results from the ability test and wealth reports, the school institutes an allocation rule and a payment rule. Allocation rules which only admit all high ability students and no others, or all high wealth students and no others are not feasible. I utilize a simple example to show how in a revenue-maximizing allocation, the private school always under-admits the highest ability students relative to the allocation rule that maximizes social welfare.  相似文献

Assuming the heterogeneity of different industries, this paper, using time series data of years from 1980 to 2008 to empirically testify the direct &indirect as well as the long & short term shocks from energy price on energy efficiency of the tertiary industry in P. R. China, concludes that the rise of energy prices can significantly reduce the energy intensity in China’s tertiary industry in the short and long run. Meanwhile, indirectly, energy price increase also exerts strong influence on the tertiary industry energy efficiency via the channel of coal consumption ratio change in the tertiary industry; namely, the higher energy price leads to more coal consumption, thus enhancing the energy efficiency as well.  相似文献

This study explores the challenges faced by young lecturers in managerial transformation in elite Chinese academic institutions which aim to develop into world-class universities. Drawing on data from in-depth interviews, the paper discusses how a group of lecturers on tenure-track contracts at a research university in China perceived the impacts of this managerial personnel reform. The study revealed intensified academic pressure and consequent feelings of insecurity, uncertainty and anxiety among the participants. Rigid tenure requirements pushed down research quality, and detracted from the efforts the participants could have devoted to teaching. Further negative impacts were strengthened power hierarchies and increasingly gendered nature of the academic culture.  相似文献

Higher education enrolment has long been known to rise and fall counter to the current economic situation. This counter-cyclical enrolment response represents an economic principle where a price-elastic consumer is more likely make a consumption choice when another valuable use of resources is not available. Higher unemployment has historically led to increased enrolment as fewer prospective students have had attractive employment opportunities as an alternative use of the resource of time. This consumer decision was possible students generally had the ability to pay the cost. This trend has now ended as enrolment is no longer rising with increased unemployment. This indicates that ability of many students to pay has now been exceeded by the cost of tuition and other fees.  相似文献
