The OECD‐ENSI Project and its Relevance for Teacher Training Concepts in Environmental Education     

REGULA KYBURZ‐GRABER  IAN ROBOTTOM 《Environmental Education Research》1999,5(3):273-291

This article presents an account of the Environment and School Initiatives (ENSI) project. The philosophical basis of the project is outlined, and case studies from within the project provided as a basis for a consideration of some current issues in the field. It is concluded that one of the distinctive features of the ENSI project is its encouragement of praxiological, action research‐based approaches to curriculum and professional development. The case studies of ENSI activities suggest that some of the more conventionally prescribed characteristics such as agreed sets of goals and professional competencies might need to be revisited.  相似文献   

The Study of Management Subjects in Building Engineering Courses     

IAN E. CHANDLER 《European Journal of Engineering Education》1992,17(4):355-359

In building engineering education throughout Europe the emphasis has been on ensuring the highest levels of theory and practice in structural analysis and design. The graduates from course' have entered practice with construction contractors or design practices. In both cases there is now a need to provide clients with a cost effective and ‘buildable’ building. The building engineer needs to be aware of the cost and organizational issues in achieving a quality structure working within a team of client, architect, building engineer and/or contractor. This paper proposes some ideas for the development of construction management studies which will provide the building engineering graduate with knowledge and skills to enable them to contribute fully to the process of construction. This will put their theoretical and fundamental studies in the context of practice so that they can meet client needs for quality, cost-effectiveness and efficient buildings.  相似文献

Management Development for Libraries and Information Services in Latin America and the Caribbean     

IAN M. JOHNSON 《International Information and Library Review》1999,31(4):337

This paper reflects on the outcomes of a project undertaken in 1997/98, and examines issues relating to the development of the managerial expertise that underpins the library and information services in Latin America and the Caribbean. It reviews the results of surveys of schools of Librarianship and Information Sciences and a small selection of employers in the region, examining the congruence between the needs of the employers and provision by the schools and possible explanations for an apparent mutual lack of awareness of modern management techniques. Proposals for developing management expertise include: enhancing access to indigenous professional publications and teaching materials; developing a Hispanic language distance-learning programme for library managers; improving research into the job market and skills requirements; and developing an electronic network for communication between the schools. The role of international agencies and technical co-operation projects is assessed, and attention is drawn to the need for a more positive approach to overcome the issues surrounding the transfer of management know-how between different cultures.  相似文献   

Passionate Utterance and Moral Education     

IAN MUNDAY 《Journal of Philosophy of Education》2009,43(1):57-74

This paper explores Stanley Cavell's notion of ‘passionate utterance’, which acts as an extension of/departure from (we might read it as both) J. L. Austin's theory of the performative. Cavell argues that Austin having made the revolutionary discovery that truth claims in language are bound up with how words perform, then gets bogged by convention when discussing what is done ‘by’ words. In failing to account for the less predictable, unconventional aspects of language, the latter therefore washes his hands of the expressive passionate aspects of speech. To ignore such aspects is to ignore an important moral dimension of language. Finally, I bring Cavell's approach to bear on the epistemic criterion, which Michael Hand applies in his paper ‘Should We Teach Homosexuality as a Controversial Issue?’. I suggest that Hand's approach, by failing to account for the linguistic dimension of truth and the expressive quality that accompanies this dimension, presents an overly narrow conception of moral education.  相似文献
