论旅游对外国留学生整体教学质量的影响

高等学校自主权概念研究

高等学校自主权是一个极其复杂的概念,源于西方大学的自治权,就性质而言,有时表现为权力,有时又表现为权利;就内容而言,有的表现为权力,有的表现为权威.在我国的权力语境中,高校自主权就是指高等学校依据法律、法规的规定,以办学目标为基础,以学术自由为主要内容,按照自身特点和内部规律的要求,由其章程所规定、效力只及于内部成员的自主决策、自主实施、自主承担责任的资格和能力.     

关于制定《中华人民共和国环境教育法》的思考

国际社会高度重视生态环境,高度重视保护环境、建设环境为重要内容的可持续发展教育;我国对环境也日益重视,颁布了有关的法律法规,开展了一系列环境教育活动,但环境的法律法规执行堪忧,环境的破坏与污染还没有从根本上得到遏制.其原因在于,广大公民环境意识尚待进一步提高,尤其是决策者的保护环境与建设环境的素质与能力亟待增强.落实科学发展观,实现可持续发展、建设和谐社会的理论与实践,都呼唤尽快对我国环境教育立法.《中华人民共和国环境教育法》的内容及其实施涉及到广大公民和各行各业等方方面面,它是隶属于我国宪法的独立法律,并非教育法的子法.     

和谐之道与西南民族教育

构筑和谐社会是人类发展的必然要求,核心是符合和谐之道.和谐之道含义至深,它不是走向一统,不是追求显在问题的简单解决,而是以让各种多样性的事物以各自的特色融入一体为目的.据此,遵循和谐之道应理顺四大关系:人类社会与自然、文化与文化、人与人和人自身内部.西南地区的发展特点是多类型并存与发展水平的参差巨大,因此要使其得到和谐发展必须在西南的民族教育中遵循和谐之道,进行共生教育和共谐教育,以促进西南和谐的自然/文化生态的构筑,继而实现西南的可持续发展.     

高职人才培养模式评析及启示

创新高职人才培养模式是解决目前高职人才培养和社会脱节问题的必然选择。在充分借鉴国内外成功经验的基础上,结合我国的国情,创新高职人才培养模式要走多元化道路,要正确处理好引进和本土化的关系,要体现"技术教育"特点,同时要加强"双师型"师资队伍建设。

‘Even if Martians exist,they’re far from our everyday life’: faculty perspectives regarding gay and lesbian students in social work education

Following a study on gay and lesbian students’ experiences in a Social Work Department in Greece, this qualitative study explores faculty perspectives regarding lesbian and gay students in social work education. Perceptions of gay and lesbian students’ invisibility and low level of comfort were held in common by participants, although some faculty members referred to the more inclusive and accepting climate of the Social Work Department compared to other higher education Departments and Greek society in general. Most participants reported that same-sex sexuality issues are inadequately covered in the curriculum. Displays of heterosexist behaviour by students were reported by most participants and so were conflicts among students when same-sex sexuality issues were discussed in class. The lack of official anti-discrimination policies that include sexual orientation was highlighted. In the absence of a common strategy regarding the teaching of same-sex sexuality content, faculty determined on an individual level how and to what extent to discuss such issues in the classroom. At times the faculty appeared willing but not adequately prepared to approach gay and lesbian issues. Implications for social work education are discussed.     

The role of social work field education programmes in the transmission of developmental social work knowledge in Southern and East Africa

This paper reports on the findings of a study on the role of social work field education programmes in the transmission of developmental social work knowledge in Southern and East Africa. It highlights the challenges in locating developmental social work placements and the creativity shown by social work educators in addressing these challenges and improving learning opportunities for social work students. Both academics and students were found to be committed to developmental social work, within a willing practice environment hampered by knowledge, capacity and resource constraints. Social work education was found to be playing a transformative role through the teaching of a developmental social work curriculum and the creation of collaborative developmental social work learning experiences. Social work educators trained and supported agency supervisors in developmental social work, while students served as conduits, modelling developmental social work practice. What has yet to be determined in future research is the students’ perspective of this developmental educational environment.     

孔子、孟子对语文教育的理论建构与实践创新

中国古代的母语教育没有"语文"的说法,但有诗教"文教"之说.其涵义与现代语文教育基本相近.孔子是"诗教"的创始人,建构了一个美丽的诗教理论系统,建筑了一条宇宙感悟式审美路径,设计了一个以人为本的诗教过程,提倡不言式、对话式教学.注重培养学生的言语交际能力.孟子是诗教理论的发展者和践行者.建构了具有实践价值的诗教释义学,设计了回归学习者主体的"知言养气"范式.
