Justification and Persuasion about Cloning: Arguments in Hwang’s Paper and Journalistic Reported Versions 总被引:4,自引:4,他引:0
María Pilar Jiménez-Aleixandre Marta Federico-Agraso 《Research in Science Education》2009,39(3):331-347
We examine the argumentative structure of Hwang et al.’s (2004) paper about human somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT, or ‘therapeutic cloning’), contrasted with four Journalistic Reported
Versions (JRV) of it, and with students’ summaries of one JRV. As the evaluation of evidence is one of the critical features
of argumentation (Jiménez-Aleixandre 2008), the analysis focuses on the use of evidence, drawing from instruments to analyze written argumentation (Kelly et al. 2008) and from studies about the structure of empirical research reports (Swales 2001). The objectives are: 1) To examine the use of evidence and the argumentative structure of Hwang et al.’s Science, 303: 1669–1674 (2004) original paper in terms of the criteria: a) pertinence of the evidence presented to the claims; b) sufficiency of the evidence
for the purpose of supporting the claims; and c) coordination of the evidence across epistemic levels. 2) To explore how the
structure of Hwang’s paper translates into the JRV and into university students’ perceptions about the evidence supporting
the claims. The argumentative structure of Hwang’s paper is such that its apparently ostensible main claim about NT constitutes
a justification for a second claim about its therapeutic applications, for which no evidence is offered. However, this second
claim receives prominent treatment in the JRV and in the students’ summaries. Implications for promoting critical reading
in the classroom are discussed. 相似文献

In this Forum paper we synthesize some of the main ideas from three papers: Auli Orlander and Per-Olof Wickman’s (Cult Stud
Sci 6, 2011), Bodily experiences in secondary school biology, Roger Sages’ (Cult Stud Sci Educ 6, 2011), About Descartes: Uses and misuses, and Steve Alsop’s (Cult Stud Sci Educ 6, 2011), The body bites back! These papers challenged us to identify how emotions functioned as elements of bodily experiences in classroom transactions
and why science teachers often are not responsive to students’ emoting. We also explored how teachers making use of curriculum and companion meanings could support the construction of learning
environments that more productively support students’ science learning. 相似文献

This article analyses the symbolic meaning of the Moon in two bande dessinée books from the Tintin series, Hergé’s Destination Moon (Objectif Lune, 1953) and its sequel Explorers on the Moon (On a Marché sur la Lune, 1954). It argues that these two volumes stand out in the series for their graphic, narrative and philosophical emphasis on both
intellectual achievement and physical death. The Moon, as a goal of modern science and a traditional artistic symbol, is made
to celebrate the human mind. But Hergé also makes it a dangerous no man’s land, where human beings are made to understand
the limitations of their physical abilities. The Moon emphasises the distortion between human dreams of grandeur and the concrete
impossibility of their realisation, and the threats they pose to corporeality. As a result, the article suggests that the
Moon trip can be seen as a modern re-enactment of the mythological journey to Hell, as the works of the human mind are constantly
thwarted by the risk of physical death. 相似文献

The construct of identity has been used widely in mathematics education in order to understand how students (and teachers)
relate to and engage with the subject (Kaasila, 2007; Sfard & Prusak, 2005; Boaler, 2002). Drawing on cultural historical activity theory (CHAT), this paper adopts Leont’ev’s notion of leading activity in order to explore the key ‘significant’ activities that are implicated in the development of students’ reflexive understanding
of self and how this may offer differing relations with mathematics. According to Leont’ev (1981), leading activities are those which are significant to the development of the individual’s psyche through the emergence
of new motives for engagement. We suggest that alongside new motives for engagement comes a new understanding of self—a leading identity—which reflects a hierarchy of our motives. Narrative analysis of interviews with two students (aged 16–17 years old) in post-compulsory
education, Mary and Lee, are presented. Mary holds a stable ‘vocational’ leading identity throughout her narrative and, thus,
her motive for studying mathematics is defined by its ‘use value’ in terms of pursuing this vocation. In contrast, Lee develops
a leading identity which is focused on the activity of studying and becoming a university student. As such, his motive for
study is framed in terms of the exchange value of the qualifications he hopes to obtain. We argue that this empirical grounding
of leading activity and leading identity offers new insights into students’ identity development. 相似文献

This exploratory study addresses differences in self-image as a client characteristic in career counselling by using the Structural
Analysis of Social Behaviour (Benjamin, L., Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 64(6), 1203–1212, 1996; Benjamin, L., Journal of Personality Assessment, 66(2), 248–266, 1996) and an adaptation (Andersson, W.P, and Niles, S.P., The Career Development Quarterly, 48(3), 251–263, 2000) of the Therapist Intention List (Hill C. E and O’Grady K. E., Journal of Counseling Psychology, 32(1), 3–22, 1985; Hill et al., Journal of Counseling Psychology, 35(3), 222–233, 1988). Expected and experienced behaviour of self and other, recalled helpful and non-helpful events during sessions, and evaluation
of sessions were compared between two clients with identified positive self-image and two clients with identified negative
self-image. The results indicated that the clients with a positive self-image compared to clients with a negative self-image
expected more positive behaviours and experienced more positive in-session behaviours from both themselves and from the counsellor;
they recalled more positive and fewer negative events in-session and they evaluated their session more positively. Implications
for career counselling are discussed. 相似文献

This paper explores the possibilities of working with White, working-class teacher education students to explore the “complex
social trajectory” (Reay in Women’s Stud Int Forum 20(2):225–233, 1997a, p. 19) of class border crossing as they progress through college. Through analysis of a course that I have developed, Education and the American Dream, I explore political and pedagogical issues in teaching the thousands of teacher education students who are the first in
their families to attend college about social class. Arguing that faculty in teacher education too often disregard the significance
of deep class differences between themselves and many of their students, I propose that teacher education include coursework
in which upwardly-mobile students (a) draw upon their distinctive perspectives as class border-crossers to elucidate their
“complex social positioning as a complicated amalgam of current privilege interlaced with historic disadvantage” (Reay in
Women’s Stud Int Forum 20(2):225–233, 1997a, p. 25) and (b) complicate what Adair and Dahlberg (Pedagogy 1:173–175, 2001, p. 174) have termed a cultural “impulse to frame class mobility as a narrative of moral progress”. Such coursework, I suggest,
has implications for the development of teacher leaders in stratified schools. The paper draws upon the literatures on social
class and educational attainment, on the construction of classed identities in spite of silence about class in public and
academic discourse, and on pedagogies for teaching across class differences. 相似文献

The study reported here is the third in a series of research articles (Harkness, S. S., D’Ambrosio, B., & Morrone, A. S.,in
Educational Studies in Mathematics 65:235–254, 2007; Morrone, A. S., Harkness, S. S., D’Ambrosio, B., & Caulfield, R. in Educational Studies in Mathematics 56:19–38, 2004) about the teaching practices of the same university professor and the mathematics course, Problem Solving, she taught for preservice elementary teachers. The preservice teachers in Problem Solving reported that they were motivated and that Sheila made learning goals salient. For the present study, additional data were
collected and analyzed within a qualitative methodology and emergent conceptual framework, not within a motivation goal theory
framework as in the two previous studies. This paper explores how Sheila’s “trying to believe,” rather than a focus on “doubting”
(Elbow, P., Embracing contraries, Oxford University Press, New York, 1986), played out in her practice and the implications it had for both classroom conversations about mathematics and her own mathematical
thinking. 相似文献

In recent years several mathematics education researchers have attempted to analyse students’ arguments using a restricted
form of Toulmin’s [The Uses of Argument, Cambridge University Press, UK, 1958] argumentation scheme. In this paper we report data from task-based interviews conducted with highly talented postgraduate
mathematics students, and argue that a superior categorisation of genuine mathematical argumentation is provided by the use
of Toulmin’s full scheme. In particular, we suggest that modal qualifiers play an important and previously unrecognised role
in mathematical argumentation, and that one of the goals of instruction should be to develop students’ abilities to appropriately
match up warrant-types with modal qualifiers. 相似文献

The American Civil War has been a popular topic for young-adult writers for years, with new books now being written from young
women’s perspectives. In this paper, I will examine the gender ideologies that infiltrate contemporary Civil War books for
young adults. I will examine four recent young-adult Civil-War novels: G. Clifton Wisler’s Mr. Lincoln’s Drummer (1995); Maureen Stack Sappéy’s Letters from Vinnie (1999); Jim Murphy’s The Journal of James Edmond Pease: A Civil War Union Soldier (1998); and Karen Hesse’s A Light in the Storm: The Civil War Diary of Amelia Martin (1999). I will argue that in these books young women are often shown to be disengaged and apolitical, while their male counterparts
use language in powerful and political ways, even despite the historical record.

Since the publication of the first young adult novel to deal with issues of sexual identity, John Donovan’s (1969) I’ll Get There, It Better Be Worth the Trip, over 200 novels have been published centered around gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning (LGBTQ) characters
and conflicts (Cart and Jenkins, 2006, The Heart has Its Reasons: Young Adult Literature with Gay/Lesbian/Queer Content, 1969–2004. Lanham, MD: Scarecrow Press). In significant contrast to early texts, many authors in recent years have sought to promote
inclusion of LGBTQ individuals and to present LGBTQ characters in a positive light. To do so, they frequently create antagonistic
homophobic characters and situations that provide a sense of realism (Crisp, 2009, Children’s Literature in Education, 40, 333–348). In this paper, I present several representative examples from these novels that challenge homophobia, but ultimately
leave it intact. Text excerpts are drawn from the numerous contemporary realistic LGBTQ-themed texts, published between the
years 2000–2005, and marketed to young adults. I then contrast these texts with the novel Boy Meets Boy (Levithan, 2003). Through the novel’s blurred genres and inventive use of linguistic features, Boy Meets Boy is able to more effectively undermine heteronormative assumptions by presenting the unthinkable: children as sexual beings,
hegemonic masculinity as in fact non-hegemonic and detrimental to success, and homosexuality as normalized and even ordinary. 相似文献

In response to Richardson Bruna’s “Mexican immigrant transnational social capital and class transformation: examining the
role of peer mediation in insurgent science”, this paper draws on the author’s research on organizing, mobilization and knowledge
production among adult im/migrant workers in Canada. While appreciative of the content and concerns of Richardson Bruna’s
argument, the paper argues for a clearer position on tensions between agency and structure, and class and capitalist social
relations in which to contextualize the schooling of immigrant children in today’s US classrooms. In addition, it explores
some implications of Mignolo’s (2000) work on the geohistory of knowledge, notably his concept of ‘border thinking’ for teachers, teacher education, and curricula.
Finally, the article suggests the potential of methodological frameworks and approaches of institutional ethnography (Smith
1987), political activist ethnography (Frampton et al. 2006) and global ethnography (Burawoy 2000) to inform research into this field. 相似文献

components of creating an active, stimulating learning environment; one purposely designed to actively engage the minds of
young children in order to help strengthen their neurological networks. The article concludes its exploration with the role
of “mirror neurons” in the learning environment and how they affect the young child's mood, emotions, and empathy. 相似文献

Robinson, McKay, Katayama, and Fan (Contemporary Educational Psychology, 23, 331–343, 1998) reported that women were underrepresented in terms of authorships, editorial board memberships, and editorships in the field
of educational psychology based on membership trends. More recently, Evans, Hsieh, and Robinson (Educational Psychology Review, 17, 263–271, 2005) reported that women had made gains as editors but had not kept pace with organizational membership in terms of authorships
and editorial board memberships. Our goal in this paper was to further examine women’s participation in educational psychology
journals by extending the datasets of Robinson et al. and Evans et al. The number of female authors per article, particularly those from non-US institutions, has continued to increase. However,
consistent with Evans et al., although females are continuing to make numerical gains in both authorships—both primary and secondary—and editorial board
memberships, their involvement has not kept pace in relation to membership trends. 相似文献

Recent feminist philosophers of science have argued that feminist values can contribute to rational decisions about which
scientific theories to accept. On this view, increasing the number of feminist scientists is important for ensuring rational
and objective theory acceptance. The Underdetermination Thesis has played a key role in arguments for this view [Anderson
(1995) Hypatia 10(3), 50–84; Hankinson Nelson (1990) Who knows? From Quine to a feminist empiricism. Temple University Press, Philadelphia; Longino (1990) Science as social knowledge. Princeton University Press, Princeton; Longino (2002) The fate of knowledge. Princeton University Press, Princeton; Kourany (2003) Philosophy of Science 70, 1–14]. This thesis is alleged to open an argumentative “gap” between evidence and theory acceptance and provide a rationale
for filling the gap with feminist values. While I agree with the conclusion that feminist values can contribute to rational
decisions about which theories to accept, I argue that the Underdetermination Thesis cannot support this claim. First, using
earlier arguments [Laudan (1990) in: R. Giere (ed) Minnesota studies in the philosophy of science, vol 14, pp 267–297; Slezak (1991) International Studies in Philosophy of Science 5, 241–256; Pinnick (1994) Philosophy of Science 61, 664–657] I show that Underdetermination cannot, by itself, establish that feminist values should fill the gap in theory
acceptance. Secondly, I argue that the very use of the Underdetermination Thesis concedes that feminist values are extra-scientific,
a-rational, factors in theory acceptance. This concession denies feminists grounds to explain why their values contribute
to rational scientific reasoning. Finally, I propose two alternative ways to explain how feminist values can contribute to
rational theory acceptance that do not rely on Underdetermination.

This article analyzes policy convergence and the adoption of globalizing models by higher education states, a process we describe,
following Thatcher (2007), as policy internationalization. This refers to processes found in many policy domains and which increasingly are exemplified
in tertiary education systems too. The focus is on governmental policymakers, their transnational networks, and the dilemmas
they face in responding to the increasing global diffusion of governance models, such as the new public management. The notion
of structuration is introduced to convey the inextricability of autonomy and structural constraint for decisionmakers in globally-situated
higher education states. Primary aims are to understand the forces that drive policy internationalization, not least those
associated with network power, as well as those factors that generate the basis for continuing forms of localism. It is suggested
national policy ‘divergences’ may aid the worldwide diffusion of governance models rather than necessarily act as impediments. 相似文献

George Sarton had a strong influence on modern history of science. The method he pursued throughout his life was the method
he had discovered in Ernst Mach’s Mechanics when he was a student in Ghent. Sarton was in fact throughout his life implementing a research program inspired by the epistemology
of Mach. Sarton in turn inspired many others (James Conant, Thomas Kuhn, Gerald Holton, etc.). What were the origins of these
ideas in Mach and what can this origin tell us about the history of science and science education nowadays? Which ideas proved
to be successful and which ones need to be improved upon? The following article will elaborate the epistemological questions,
which Darwin’s “Origin” raised concerning human knowledge and scientific knowledge and which led Mach to adapt the concept
of what is “empirical” in contrast to metaphysical a priori assumptions a second time after Galileo. On this basis Sarton
proposed “genesis and development” as the major goal of Isis. Mach had elaborated this epistemology in La Connaissance et l’Erreur (Knowledge and Error), which Sarton read in 1913 (Hiebert 1905/1976; de Mey 1984). Accordingly for Sarton, history becomes not only a subject of science, but a method of science education. Culture—and science
as part of culture—is a result of a genetic process. History of science shapes and is shaped by science and science education
in a reciprocal process. Its epistemology needs to be adapted to scientific facts and the philosophy of science. Sarton was
well aware of the need to develop the history of science and the philosophy of science along the lines of this reciprocal
process. It was a very fruitful basis, but a specific part of it, Sarton did not elaborate further, namely the psychology
of science education. This proved to be a crucial missing element for all of science education in Sarton’s succession, especially
in the US. Looking again at the origins of the central questions in the thinking of Mach, which provided the basis and gave
rise to Sarton’s research program, will help in resolving current epistemic and methodological difficulties, contradictions
and impasses in science education influenced by Sarton. The difficulties in science education will prevail as long as the
omissions from their Machian origins are not systematically recovered and reintegrated. 相似文献

The departing point of this study is the theoretical framework of “Making the Match project” (Evers and Rush in Management
Learning 27:275–299, 1996) about how to develop a common language among stakeholders regarding transferable skills. Thus, the paper examines the impact
of demographic variables (age and gender) and developmental dimensions (Career adaptability and Vocational development) in
the representations of transferable skills construction within a Portuguese sample of first-year college students (Vocational
developmental variables are part of career construction theory; Savickas 2001, 2002, 2005, Journal of Vocational Behavior 75:239–250, 2009), a theoretical framework that significantly supports the notion that the acquisition of transferable skills is one of the
consequences of vocational tasks’ resolution. Results suggested that career adaptability seems to be the most robust predictor
for the transferable skills’ groups advanced by Evers and colleagues, followed by career development, and, finally, age and
gender as a block. Results are discussed in the light of the two aforementioned main frameworks. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate the predictive value of optimism, perceived support from family and perceived
support from faculty in determining life satisfaction of college students in Turkey. One hundred and thirty three students
completed the Satisfaction with Life Scale (Diener et al., Journal of Personality Assessment 49(1):71–75, 1985), Perceived Social Support Scale-Revised (Yıldırım, Eğitim Araştırmaları–Eurasian, Journal of Educational Research 17:221–236,
2004), and Life Orientation Test (Scheier and Carver, Health Psychology 4(3):219–247, 1985) and provided demographic information about themselves. Independent samples t-test, correlation, and multiple regression analyses were performed for data analysis. Significant relationships were found
among the variables, with regression analysis indicating that perceived support from family, perceived faculty support, and
optimism were statistically significant predictors of life satisfaction. The implications of these results are discussed and
suggestions made for counseling practice and future research. 相似文献

Today’s emphasis on using children’s literature as a tool to teach reading and writing sub-skills distracts teachers’ attention
from looking to children’s books for their historical role in helping children navigate the intellectual, social, and emotional
terrains of childhood. This article argues, first, that early childhood educators must remain fluent in the use of literature
that supports young children’s psychosocial development. Second, teachers must establish criteria for choice. By way of example,
it examines two popular books for young children, Sendak’s (1963) Where the Wild Things Are [New York: HarperCollins Publishers] and Shannon’s (1998) No, David! [New York: Blue Sky Press] Three theoretical perspectives guide the analysis. The first combines Dewey’s (1938/97) [Experience and education. New York:Touchstone] impetus for learning and Vygotsky’s (1978) [Mind in society. Cambridge: Harvard University Press] theory that learning precedes development through scaffolded social
interaction. The second is Erikson’s (1950, 1985) [Childhood and society. New York: W. W. Norton & Company, Inc.] theory of psychosocial development in light of the
4–6-year-old’s drive towards self-regulation, control, and independence. The third is Rosenblatt’s (1978) [The reader, the text, the poem. Urbana, IL: National Council of Teachers of English] transactional nature of reading. 相似文献

The research project presented in this article was designed to provide a better understanding of the stable and significant
differences in the PISA results between two otherwise very similar Nordic welfare states, Denmark and Finland. In the PISA
studies, Finnish students repeatedly achieve the highest Nordic (and partly worldwide) scores in e.g. reading, science and
math, while Danish students score lower. Even though Denmark has one of the world’s most expensive educational systems, the
OECD ranks the Finnish school system as the world’s best both in terms of quality and equity (OECD 2004). The basic research question is why these differences continue to persist. The case study methodology was mainly inspired by Kirsti Klette’s classroom research (Klette 2003) which involves both interviews and observations. Thus, the overall design could be labeled mixed methods (Johnson and Onwuegbuzie Educational Researcher, 33(7): 14-26, 2004). Five regular public schools in each country were sampled for the comparative classroom studies. The basic theoretical approaches
follow Hundeide’s theory of pedagogical communication and relations (2003) and Csikszentmihalyi’s flow-theory (1992). Both this study and statistical studies (S?rensen 2008) show that the difference in the Danish and Finnish PISA results mainly consists in the relatively better score by the lowest
scoring 25% of the Finnish pupils compared to the lowest scoring Danish quartile. The results of this study point to a number
of possible classroom related reasons why the Finnish school system can produce a better outcome for the lowest scoring quartile
of pupils. These reasons are presented and discussed in the article. The study underlines the need to focus more on good classroom
management in Denmark—and recommends further international, comparative research in order better to understand the huge differences
shown in large scale international programmes such as PISA, PIRLS and TIMMS. The study also reveal the need for more knowledge
about inclusive classroom practices, the use of teacher assistants and free, healthy school meals for all pupils. 相似文献
