最危险的污染：核污梁的世界简史     

克莱夫·庞廷英 《中学历史教学参考》2011,(4):1-1

【编者按】日本3．11大地震引发的福岛核电站核辐射灾难,已成地球人再度反思核“安全”的焦点,但很遗憾如果像往常那样,只局促于技术层面去反思,从长远看,毫无疑问,是无济于事的。让人类身陷囹圄的何啻技术,难道出路仍然是创造更好的技术？人类想改变一切,却往往不肯改变自己,自作孽却不自知。核灾难的历史本身,就用毁灭性的事实反复...  相似文献   

我国“择校”现象的教育社会学阐释   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

陈·巴特尔 《中国教育学刊》2011,(5)

义务教育阶段的择校问题不仅是社会各界反映强烈的热点问题,而且是影响义务教育公平性和均衡性的难点问题。教育社会学关注教育获得与社会分层的关系,运用教育选择功能理论、阶层优势与社会选择理论、教育成层理论对择校问题进行分析,可以使人们明确其产生的深层原因。要规范择校行为,使其成为促进义务教育公平、推动教育均衡发展的有力举措,政府必须加大实施义务教育均衡化的力度,改革现行择校制度,同时要大力发展多种类型的中学教育,为人的成才提供多种渠道。  相似文献

Applying computerized-scoring models of written biological explanations across courses and colleges: prospects and limitations     

Ha M  Nehm RH  Urban-Lurain M  Merrill JE 《CBE life sciences education》2011,10(4):379-393

Our study explored the prospects and limitations of using machine-learning software to score introductory biology students’ written explanations of evolutionary change. We investigated three research questions: 1) Do scoring models built using student responses at one university function effectively at another university? 2) How many human-scored student responses are needed to build scoring models suitable for cross-institutional application? 3) What factors limit computer-scoring efficacy, and how can these factors be mitigated? To answer these questions, two biology experts scored a corpus of 2556 short-answer explanations (from biology majors and nonmajors) at two universities for the presence or absence of five key concepts of evolution. Human- and computer-generated scores were compared using kappa agreement statistics. We found that machine-learning software was capable in most cases of accurately evaluating the degree of scientific sophistication in undergraduate majors’ and nonmajors’ written explanations of evolutionary change. In cases in which the software did not perform at the benchmark of “near-perfect” agreement (kappa > 0.80), we located the causes of poor performance and identified a series of strategies for their mitigation. Machine-learning software holds promise as an assessment tool for use in undergraduate biology education, but like most assessment tools, it is also characterized by limitations.  相似文献   

Surgeons as medical school educators: an untapped resource     

Haubert LM  Way D  DePhilip R  Tam M  Bishop J  Jones K  Moffatt-Bruce SD 《Anatomical sciences education》2011,4(4):182-189

Despite extensive experience teaching residents, surgeons are an untapped resource for educating medical students. We hypothesized that by involving surgeons as teachers earlier in the medical school curriculum, medical students' interest in surgery will increase and their opinions of surgeons will improve. Five programs designed to involve surgeons as educators in the medical school curriculum were implemented. The first program, started in 2008, introduced surgical faculty into the first-year medical student anatomy dissection laboratories. Other programs initiated in 2008 included: Surgical Clinical Correlates in Anatomy, which involved faculty teaching through cadaver surgery; Clinical Pathologic Conferences in Anatomy, a surgeon-led conference based on clinical cases; and a women's faculty-student mentorship program. Table Rounds, a surgeon-led anatomy review that used clinical scenarios to quiz students was begun in 2009. All five programs were successfully integrated into the medical school curriculum. While student opinion of surgeons as educators improved, there were no significant changes in student interest in surgery as a career nor change in performance on written examinations over the Anatomy content covered by the surgeons. Surgical faculty and trainees can be integrated into the medical school curriculum. Involving surgeons as educators earlier in the medical school curriculum may have longer term effects than could be observed in this study. At a minimum, the experience improved student opinion of surgeons as educators.  相似文献   

A study assessing the potential of negative effects in interdisciplinary math-biology instruction     

Madlung A  Bremer M  Himelblau E  Tullis A 《CBE life sciences education》2011,10(1):43-54

There is increasing enthusiasm for teaching approaches that combine mathematics and biology. The call for integrating more quantitative work in biology education has led to new teaching tools that improve quantitative skills. Little is known, however, about whether increasing interdisciplinary work can lead to adverse effects, such as the development of broader but shallower skills or the possibility that math anxiety causes some students to disengage in the classroom, or, paradoxically, to focus so much on the mathematics that they lose sight of its application for the biological concepts in the center of the unit at hand. We have developed and assessed an integrative learning module and found disciplinary learning gains to be equally strong in first-year students who actively engaged in embedded quantitative calculations as in those students who were merely presented with quantitative data in the context of interpreting biological and biostatistical results. When presented to advanced biology students, our quantitative learning tool increased test performance significantly. We conclude from our study that the addition of mathematical calculations to the first year and advanced biology curricula did not hinder overall student learning, and may increase disciplinary learning and data interpretation skills in advanced students.  相似文献   

Harnessing technology to improve formative assessment of student conceptions in STEM: forging a national network   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2

Concept inventories, consisting of multiple-choice questions designed around common student misconceptions, are designed to reveal student thinking. However, students often have complex, heterogeneous ideas about scientific concepts. Constructed-response assessments, in which students must create their own answer, may better reveal students' thinking, but are time- and resource-intensive to evaluate. This report describes the initial meeting of a National Science Foundation-funded cross-institutional collaboration of interdisciplinary science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education researchers interested in exploring the use of automated text analysis to evaluate constructed-response assessments. Participants at the meeting shared existing work on lexical analysis and concept inventories, participated in technology demonstrations and workshops, and discussed research goals. We are seeking interested collaborators to join our research community.  相似文献

新疆普通高校体育教学现状调查     

海力旦·依不拉音 《体育文化导刊》2011,(8):108-110

采用问卷调查法等对新疆普通高校体育教学模式、教学大纲、课程设置、教师队伍、教材使用、体质健康标准的实施现状等进行调查。调查显示,教师专业结构不合理,教学与科研不能协调发展,体育教师的待遇与工作负荷不成正比。具有地方特色、民族特色、学校特色的体育教改新思路在新疆普通高校逐渐兴起。建议:加强对体育教师的专业培训;在教学中注重培养学生终身体育观念,培养学生积极健身意识;要充分体现民族体育和现代体育的有机结合,开展具有少数民族体育特色的教学活动。  相似文献   

Neuromuscular control and running economy is preserved in elite international triathletes after cycling     

Bonacci J  Saunders PU  Alexander M  Blanch P  Vicenzino B 《Sports biomechanics / International Society of Biomechanics in Sports》2011,10(1):59-71

Running is the most important discipline for Olympic triathlon success. However, cycling impairs running muscle recruitment and performance in some highly trained triathletes; though it is not known if this occurs in elite international triathletes. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of cycling in two different protocols on running economy and neuromuscular control in elite international triathletes. Muscle recruitment and sagittal plane joint angles of the left lower extremity and running economy were compared between control (no preceding cycle) and transition (preceded by cycling) runs for two different cycle protocols (20-minute low-intensity and 50-minute high-intensity cycles) in seven elite international triathletes. Muscle recruitment and joint angles were not different between control and transition runs for either cycle protocols. Running economy was also not different between control and transition runs for the low-intensity (62.4 +/- 4.5 vs. 62.1 +/- 4.0 ml/min/kg, p > 0.05) and high-intensity (63.4 +/- 3.5 vs. 63.3 +/- 4.3 ml/min/kg, p > 0.05) cycle protocols. The results of this study demonstrate that both low- and high-intensity cycles do not adversely influence neuromuscular control and running economy in elite international triathletes.  相似文献
