Locating mathematics within post-16 vocational education in England     

Diane Dalby  Andrew Noyes 《Journal of Vocational Education & Training》2016,68(1):70-86

The political importance of mathematics in post-16 education is clear. Far less clear is how mathematics does and should relate to vocational education. Successive mathematics curricula (e.g. core skills, key skills) have been developed in England with vocational learners in mind. Meanwhile, general mathematics qualifications remain largely disconnected from vocational learning. Following a brief historical survey of mathematics within vocational education, the paper presents findings from a nested case study of student groups in three large Further Education colleges in England. The primary unit of analysis herein is student groups learning Functional Mathematics in two vocational areas: construction and hairdressing. We show how approaches to organising teaching, developing connected curricula and classroom pedagogy tend to isolate or integrate mathematics from/with the vocational experience. Integrated approaches are shown to impact positively on student engagement and attitudes to learning mathematics. The paper concludes by discussing the potential impact of academic qualifications displacing vocationally relevant mathematics.  相似文献   

系统功能语法简述     

Li Xueying 《考试》2008,(4)

人与人之间的文化交流对文明社会的形成起了至关重要的作用。这种交流以口头或书面的语言形式表达着人们思想。而语法正是语言结构的框架。语法规定及架构着语言,以致语言中所包含的意义与思想得以持续,清晰的表达。没有语法的作用,语义将在交流中丢失及被曲解。在本文中,我将着重论述功能语法是怎样操控及作用于语言,从而使交流更加明晰有效。  相似文献   

《左传》中的"N以"结构的实质     

罗红昌 《宜宾学院学报》2005,5(9):89-91,94

“以”是上古汉语中一个重要的虚词，其与名词（N）的组合有“以N”和“N以”两种方式。对于前者的结构特征，学者已有定论。而对于后者，尚存分歧。本文以《左传》为语料，通过系统研究得出结论：“N以”结构从本质上讲是一种介宾结构，从来源上讲是“以N”结构的变体。  相似文献

Differences in reading development among Danish beginning-readers with high versus low phonemic awareness on entering grade one     

Frost  Jørgen 《Reading and writing》2001,14(7-8):615-642

This longitudinal study explored the relation betweenpreschool phoneme awareness and initial reading development. Distinctions were made between formal and functional letter knowledge and between foundation and subsequent phases of reading development. 44 children with at least average language comprehension were followed from the beginning of grade 1(7 years) until the end of grade 2. They were divided intotwo groups: one group of 21 children with high phonemic awareness (HPA) and 23 children with low phonemic awareness (LPA) on entering grade 1. The results showed persistent group differences in favour of the HPA children regarding letter-knowledge and word reading. The results confirmed a significant impact of functional letter knowledge on the length of the foundation period and on later reading development. Length of foundation period was shown to have a significant impact on reading development at the end of grades 1 and 2. It is argued that phonemic awareness is an indispensable catalystin the development of initial word processing ability.  相似文献   

功能性训练促进5－6岁幼儿粗大动作发展的实证研究     

周喆啸  孟欢欢  赵焕彬  白锐  雷园园 《成都体育学院学报》2016,(5):16-22

目的：探讨功能性训练对5－6岁幼儿粗大动作能力发展的影响。方法：随机抽取石家庄某公立幼儿园5－6岁幼儿143名为研究对象，将其分为实验组与对照组，实验组70人，对照组73人。实验组进行12周的功能性训练干预，对照组保持幼儿园原有体育活动内容，干预前后，通过美国大肌肉动作技能发展测试系统第二版（ TGMD －2），对受试幼儿粗大动作能力进行测试。结果：（1）对照组幼儿粗大动作总分为74．65，其中位移动作得分39．82、控制动作得分34．83，较实验前74．61、38．86和35．75，未见显著性提高（P ＞0.05）；（2）实验组幼儿粗大动作总分为85．74，其中位移动作得分44．60、控制动作得分41．14，较实验前74．22、39．62和34．60，具有非常显著性提高（P ＜0.01）；（3）实验后实验组与对照组幼儿相比，实验组粗大动作、位移动作和控制动作得分均显著性高于对照组（ P ＜0.01）。结论：根据幼儿身心特点所设计的功能性训练能够较好促进5－6岁幼儿粗大动作水平发展。  相似文献

A functional analysis of congressional television spots, 1986–2000     

LeAnn M. Brazeal  William L. Benoit 《Communication quarterly》2013,61(4):436-454

Despite the hundreds of millions of dollars spent on television advertising in congressional campaigns, relatively little research has examined the content purchased by those advertising dollars. This study applied the Functional Theory of Political Campaign Discourse to a purposive sample of television spots from U.S. House and Senate races from 1986 to 2000. Acclaims (self‐praise: 64%) outnumbered both attacks (criticisms: 35.5%) and defenses (refutation of attacks: 0.5%). Policy utterances comprised the bulk of the discussions in the ads (70%), while character utterances appeared less frequently (30%). Past deeds of candidates were the overwhelming focus of policy discussions (81%), while personal qualities dominated the discourse on character utterances (86%). Incumbents had a strong proclivity to acclaim (79%) more than challengers (51%) whereas challengers had a tendency to attack (49%) more than incumbents (21%). Incumbents were more likely to use past deeds to acclaim, whereas challengers used past deeds to attack.  相似文献   

世居高原铁人三项运动员平原训练期间的机能监控   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

屈成刚  孟超一  王冠栋 《四川体育科学》2006,(1):19-21

对成都军区铁人三项队运动员于2004年1月至2月的下高原到平原(三亚)训练进行了全程跟踪,测试相关生理生化指标,结果发现,下到平原后,运动员HGB、RBC、HCT等指标逐渐下降,直到第3周开始,各项指标才逐渐回升,到18~21天达到峰值。CK的高值出现在下到平原后第3周,为431±123.7U/L,随后逐渐下降并保持在一定水平。BUN的高值出现在第1周,为5.83±0.41mmol/L,而且在整个训练期间BUN值保持在1个较理想值水平。T值无显著变化,处于较好水平。建议高原运动员平原训练时,在血红蛋白出现上升时,可考虑增加运动负荷,尤其是运动强度,以达到强刺激、激发运动员潜能的目的;在参赛时间上最好安排在下到平原的第18天左右。  相似文献
