人力资本理论:大学教师薪酬制度研究的新视野

基于人力资本理念的当代薪酬,表现出期望式薪酬和个性化的特征,适宜于大学教师薪酬制度.新的分配理论更加关注大学教师自身特性,可以弥补和超越原有理论,人力资本产权论还能体现薪酬分配以教师为本的特征,且符合聘任制改革的效率导向.     

民族高等教育的发展历程和现状

我国民族高等教育的历史可以追溯到20世纪初期的“满蒙高教学堂”。而民族高等教育的快速发展是在新中国成立之后的50余年,尤其是党的十一届三中全会以后。目前,全国共有民族学院(大学)13所,其中隶属国家民委的6所,隶属省(自治区)的7所。民族学院(大学)已形成了自己的办学特色,学科种类比较齐全,结构比较合理,办学实力明显增强,教学、科研水平逐步提高,为持续发展奠定了坚实的基础。     

绩效考核对高校教师工作满意度的影响:职业压力的中介作用

在中国高校全面实施校内岗位津贴及配套政策的情境下,探讨绩效考核对教师工 作满意度的影响。大样本调查结果显示,绩效考核对工作满意度的影响有3条路径：绩效考核对工作满意度直接的积极影响;绩效考核通过职业压力的中介作用,间接影响工作满意度;绩效考核通过考核认知的中介作用,影响职业压力,进而影响工作满意度,其中第1条路径的影响最强,第2条路径的影响相对较弱。高校教师这一职业存在高职业满意度、低薪酬满意度并存的现象。

生物语言学研究综述

近年来国际语言学界关注的焦点是生物语言学。生物语言学作为一门新起的前沿交叉学科成形于20世纪60年代。1967年美国语言病理学家Lenneberg出版《语言的生物基础》一书,生物语言学学科自此产生且逐渐兴盛。在其学科发展的进程中,形成了以Lenneberg和Chomsky为主导的两大范式。Lenneberg范式侧重于语言的生理基础、认知机制、起源、演进及发展模式研究,Chomsky范式侧重在语言机能的特异性研究基础上考察语言的演进。     

舟山群岛新区小学全科型师资培训课程设置构想

师资培训最重要的是要确定"教什么"以及"怎么教",也即课程设置和课程实施问题。浙江舟山群岛新区小学全科型师资培养以"职后内部培训"为主。要开展好舟山群岛新区小学全科型师资培训的课程设置工作,必须先确立课程设置原则,再确立课程系列与内容模块,最后形成课程的监督与反思机制。     

Unequally Adrift: How Social Class and College Context Shape Students’ Mentorship Experiences

Faculty mentorship is a highly advantageous yet under-explored form of social capital which can grant access to co-curriculars (e.g., research assistantships), ensure strong letters of recommendation, and more. It is also typically informal and dependent on student initiative, requiring that students be skilled at engaging educational authority figures. Privileged students are most likely to have such skills as part of their dominant cultural capital, making faculty mentorship a site of social reproduction. To explore variations in this process, I compare two institution types: a small, teaching/undergraduate-focused regional university and a large, research-intensive flagship. In interviews with 68 working- and upper-middle-class students, I find that college context mediates the relationship of class background and faculty mentorship. Upper-middle-class students fostered advantageous faculty relationships at both universities, but working-class students diverged: at the flagship, they rarely approached professors in search of mentorship, while those at the regional university described close, beneficial connections with professors. I discuss working-class students’ dissimilar experiences in terms of each university’s structural and cultural characteristics (organizational habitus), particularly their institutional focus and size. I argue that through their particular organizational features, colleges can both reproduce and reduce inequalities, challenging the determinacy of precollege socialization in education.     

地方高校推行教师学术休假制度的现实意义与实施策略

教师学术休假是促进教师专业发展的重要形式，是教师自我完善的需要，是提升教师理论水平、科研能力和教学技能的主要手段，是提高教学质量的有效途径。探讨地方高校推行学术休假制的必要性，提出地方高校推行学术休假的建议，对地方高校教师队伍建设具有重要的现实意义。在实施策略上，应注重4个方面：（1）明确参加学术休假的对象主要是教师和教学科研人员；（2）根据教师职业发展的阶段性确定学术休假的时间；（3）合理设置学术休假人员遴选条件，首先应考虑为工作满5年以上的青年教师提供学术休假，其次应考虑为高级职称教师提供学术休假；（4）明确学术休假期间的教师待遇，并加强对学术休假人员的管理。     

Expanding the Scope of Responsible Conduct of Research Instruction

We argue that responsible conduct research (RCR) instruction should be extended beyond students and trainees funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) or National Science Foundation (NSF) to include all students, trainees, faculty, and research staff involved in research. Extending the scope of RCR instruction can help institutions develop and maintain an environment that promotes ethical research conduct. Universities and scientific organizations have objected to expanding the scope of RCR instruction on the grounds that it would be a major undertaking that would require the expenditure of additional institutional resources. We argue, however, that expanding the scope of RCR instruction can be done efficiently without placing undue burdens on institutions.     

Facing Faculty Fears about Embracing the Ebook: Communication Strategies for Liaison Librarians

Carol Cramer and Ellen Daugman of Wake Forest University discussed faculty attitudes toward ebooks in the library collection. Cramer and Daugman shared communication strategies based on their experience balancing the print book preferences of some faculty with the budgetary and collection development needs of the library.
