札记体著作中训诂材料特点与价值初探

作为训诂材料，札记体著作中对语言文字的考释，具有与一般的随文释义的传注以及训诂专书明显不同的特点。即：它既有具体性、单一性的一面，又有概括性、广义性的一面，而且能够较为清晰、详细地将训释时的考释线索和证明过程展现出来，同时每条训诂材料一般都综合运用多种训诂方法进行训释，丰富而多样。这些特点有利于对语义规律、训诂方法及其体系的探讨，具有特殊的训诂学价值。     

关注大学生文化经典阅读

论接受美学视野下的体悟式阅读教学

语文课程标准建议阅读教学要注重体验和感悟。在新课标的引领下，文本解读不应是过去对教参观点的简单复制，而应是个性化、多元化的。本文以接受美学理论为依据，从文本、解读、创造三个角度，提出文本阅读情境化、文本解读多元化、期待视野拓展化的体悟式阅读教学观。

重视语篇教育提高学生的阅读理解能力

大学英语阅读教学不应只停留在语言形式及字面意义的分析和理解上,而要将一篇文章作为一个整体,上升到语篇教学,训练学生获取完整信息的能力,从而提高学生的阅读理解能力.     

Social inequality of reading literacy: A longitudinal analysis with cross-sectional data of PIRLS 2001 and PISA 2000 utilizing the pair wise matching procedure

In accordance to Boudon's structural-individualistic action model, it is the aim of this paper to investigate the casual effects of individual abilities, resources of the parental home, socially selective educational transitions as well as teaching and learning conditions in schools on the development of reading literacy and its dispersion in respect of social origin. It is assumed that the socially selective transition into the secondary school tracks contributes to the general deterioration of the mean reading literacy when controlling for social origin and individual achievement. The socially selective transition from primary to secondary school contributes to the increase of social inequality of reading literacy existing already since the start of the pupils’ schooling. Since it is not possible to isolate these causes with comparative-static cross-sectional data like PIRLS or PISA empirically, we use a design of generating quasi-longitudinal data with three time references, namely reading literacy at the point of enrolment into elementary school, at the age of 9–10 years, and at the age of 15 years by the pair wise matching of “synthetic twins” with identical status criteria. The empirical analysis of the German data of PISA 2000 and PIRLS 2001 confirm the effects of the individual abilities depending on social origin, the social selectivity of transition into the secondary schools, the sorting and selection performances of the school system, the allocation of children into different learning contexts, and the schooling of both the individual development of reading competences and the social inequality of reading literacy.     

Using a Book Group to Facilitate Student Learning About Social Work

The focus of this short paper is the increasingly popular format of the book group. This format has been used on an undergraduate social work programme in the UK with the aim of engaging students, as some enjoy reading fiction for pleasure but find it harder to read social science. The BA Social Work Book Group has met regularly to discuss non-social science books, such as novels and autobiographies. A specific example is presented of a best-selling novel with significant social work content (J.K. Rowling's The Casual Vacancy) and the book group's discussion of this. The strengths and limitations of book groups in social work education are drawn out.
