Identifying needs and enhancing learning about climate change adaptation for water professionals at the post-graduate level     

David Alan George  Poh-Ling Tan  Jeffrey Frank Clewett 《Environmental Education Research》2016,22(1):62-88

Using a participatory learning approach, we report on the delivery and evaluation of a climate change and risk assessment tool to help manage water risks within the agricultural sector. Post-graduate water-professional students from a range of countries, from both developed and emerging economies were involved in using this tool. Our approach included participative learning tools – group discussion, software, and risk matrices. The materials developed met the needs of the students, allowing these students to incorporate their learning and adapt the package of materials for use in their home countries. Analysis of evaluations show that the tools and materials are particularly useful and emphasizes the need for sound learning materials and tools, funding to deliver training, and policy support to accelerate education and adoption of authentic climate change adaptation practices. The expected benefits for water professionals about climate change will be translated into improved socioeconomic and environmental outcomes if adopted.  相似文献   

Teachers' perspectives of changes in their practice during a technology in mathematics education research project     

《Teaching and Teacher Education》2017

Teachers' perception of changes to their teaching practice, with respect to digital technology use in secondary school mathematics, during their participation in a research project are reported. Two case studies are presented of teacher perspectives illustrative of the range of perceived changes teachers made to their practice and positions along the ‘path of change’ during their participation in the project. Participating in a project supportive of teacher change and resulting in perception of substantial change was necessary, but not sufficient, to meet the goal of transformative use of digital technologies to increase the level of cognitive demand experienced by students.  相似文献   

Change management and the SENCo role: developing key performance indicators in the strategic development of inclusivity     

Liz Done  Mike Murphy  Mia Watt 《Support for Learning》2016,31(4):281-295

This article follows an earlier publication highlighting the changing role of special educational needs co‐ordinators (SENCos) in England. SENCos are now required to manage change strategically and deliver inclusive school cultures. School‐based action research undertaken by a teacher studying for the postgraduate National Award for SEN Co‐ordination (NASENCO) is featured in the article; a strategic review of resource allocation increased the availability and quality of interventions for students with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The commentary which frames the study acknowledges that many SENCos are not yet members of a senior school management team (SMT) despite their mandated strategic whole‐school remit. Featuring the process through which one SENCo has strived to enhance SEND provision and develop context‐specific key performance indicators brings official guidance on the SENCo's role in strategic change management into sharp focus, raising questions that should concern both SMTs and non‐SMT SENCos.  相似文献

科研型数学教师及其培养   总被引：10，自引：3，他引：10  

郑强  杨世明 《数学教育学报》2002,11(3):72-74

国际经济、科技、人才的竞争正推动着教育的改革。教育改革的关键因素在于合格的、新型教师的培养。科研型教师是指既能教学，又能进行数学及数学教育研究的教师。科研型教师应具备3项条件：转变观念，更新意识，提高能力。科研型数学教师是新时代数学教育的需要，要实行理论学习、实践探索和科学研究三位一体的教师培训途径。教养科研型教师需要解决“为何搞科研”、“如何搞科研”和“研究什么”3个问题。  相似文献   

中苏论战对毛泽东转变世界战争认识的影响--从"世界大战可以避免"到"世界大战不可避免"的观点变化     

齐卫平  杨倩 《徐州师范大学学报(哲学社会科学版)》2005,31(5):64-70

20世纪60年代后,毛泽东改变了原先“世界大战可以避免或推迟”的判断,突出地强调战争爆发的危险性,从而对中国的建设走向产生极大的影响。毛泽东这一判断变化的过程,与中苏两党关系的演变有着密切的关系。中苏两党从产生分歧、摩擦到公开论战,在一系列问题上形成对立,其中包括关于战争与和平问题的认识。中苏论战产生的影响是多层面的。从中苏论战的影响这一大背景,厘清毛泽东改变判断的原因,有助于更准确和更科学地作出历史的评价。毛泽东形成“战争不可避免”的观点以及对战争的高度警觉,决不是其个人主观意志的产物,而是在特定时代背景影响下、特殊历史事件作用下的结果。  相似文献

“Sport for Development” in developing countries: The case of the Vilas Olímpicas do Rio de Janeiro     

《Sport Management Review》2016,19(2):107-119

The benefits of sport for general social outcomes has permeated sport policy in Brazil since the beginning of the twentieth century, but recently the jargon of “development through sport” is more overtly informing public policy and government action in this field. Despite increased uptake of the positive discourse of “sport as a development tool”, the reality for government-funded and -run “sport for development” programs is one far removed from enjoying the attention and financial investment needed to reach their stated development goals. This paper focuses on one such program: the Vilas Olímpicas do Rio de Janeiro. When analysing the specific matters associated with the management of this program three themes were identified that encapsulate the main issues that emerged during the analysis: partnerships, conflicting aims, and community involvement. These themes are analysed in light of the literature that discusses the application of “sport for development” programs worldwide and we conclude with some questions on the applicability of well-defined frameworks and approaches to such programs when these programs themselves tend to operate in very ill-defined and unstable environments.  相似文献   

变奏与期待--90年代后期云南儿童文学印象     

王昆建 《昆明师范高等专科学校学报》2005,27(2):14-17

被称为“太阳鸟作家群”的云南儿童文学一直以自身的地域特色而引人注目。90年代后期以来，云南儿童文学在原有的基础上呈现出开放的视野和现代思考态势。而云南儿童文学在其自身可持续发展中倘要保持良好的势头，也客观地面临着对人才培养的期待。  相似文献   

文质互变发展的顶峰与拐点——略论刘勰的文学发展观     

李锋 《华东师范大学学报(哲学社会科学版)》2005,37(5):59-65

在刘勰看来,以往文学发展的状态的变化,其实质都是因为文质互为量变而形成的递进和衰退。准确地说,他认为:在商周之前,是一个递进的过程,而从商周以后则是一段衰退的历史。那么,商周就成了实际意义上文质彬彬的顶峰。然而,文质无法达到绝对的平衡,商周的“丽而雅”已经开始显示出文进质退的趋势。所以,不可否认,商周实际上又成为文胜质的拐点。文学的发展,在商周之后,便逐步走上了“从质至讹,弥近弥澹”的道路。  相似文献
