Focusing on academic institutions in higher education as the research context, this study examined the relations of key factors
affecting students’ supportive behavioral intentions toward the university (e.g., giving gifts as alumni, continuing education,
and giving referrals regarding the university). Based on the literature from various disciplines, this study proposed four
factors are critical influencing such intentions: (1) students’ communication behavior with the university, (2) perceived
quality of educational experience, (3) evaluations of the relationship with the university, and (4) university reputation.
The data in this study were collected using a survey of current undergraduate students (N = 336) who were attending a private university in Seoul during Fall 2005. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to
analyze the proposed model. Regarding overall results, the proposed model can be retained as a valid model based on data-model
fits: Eight hypotheses were supported in this study, but not the effect of students’ educational experience on university
reputation. The findings suggest that to foster students’ supportive behavior, universities need to cultivate a good relationship
with their students and to obtain favorable reputation held by students, while ensuring active communication behavior of students
and the quality of students’ educational experience.

Louise Erdrich is one of the most influential writers of the Native American Renaissance. Her contributions to the representation
of Native American history have been great, and her masterpieces of children’s literature have won her a prominent reputation.
This article explores the (re)location of the concept of home in Erdrich’s The Game of Silence and analyzes the novel’s historical context with reference to various discourses on space/place, including those by Native
Americans. Erdrich’s narration reconstructs a space for Native American culture, religion and tradition, and for the continued
survival of Native American people. She represents the silent history of her ancestors’ displacement to the West, as white
settlers encroached upon their beloved homeland. As Erdrich’s work so poignantly illustrates, for Native American people,
home is nowhere and anywhere. 相似文献

Russell Hoban has compared himself as a writer to a shaman—willing to admit the unseen and making himself a medium for the
quality of the unseen in his novels. This article explores Hoban’s highly-regarded The Mouse and His Child (1967) with this comparison in mind. The writer interweaves Mircea Eliade’s study of shamanism with an examination of the experiences
of the protagonists of the novel—The Mouse and His Child. In so doing, she reveals many elements of shamanism in the text which, it is argued, reaches a conclusion which is consistent
with the central tenets of the Indian philosophical system of Advaita.

connections between Advaita and fantasy fiction for children and the devotional poetry of many cultures 相似文献

This article considers J.M. Barrie’s satirical treatment of the Platonic doctrine of reminiscence in Peter Pan, and how Barrie’s work both honors and undercuts it. It will first analyze the Platonic notion of the doctrine of reminiscence in Wordsworth’s “Ode: Intimations of Immortality from Recollections of Early Childhood” (1807). It will then show its influence on Victorian literature in the depiction of the exalted perception and moral purity of children, and how Barrie satirizes these ideals by underscoring the ignorance and savage qualities of the children in Peter Pan. The essay will also explore the portrayal of the Eden of childhood in Wordsworth’s poem (as influenced by Plato), and how Barrie subverts this utopia by presenting a dystopic world where Darwinian principles rule. Like Darwin, Barrie argues for a natural rather than a divine origin of species and demonstrates the struggle for existence in a profoundly disturbing way. Finally, the essay will contemplate the subject of immortality and how, far from being an idealized condition as in Wordsworth’s poetry, it is a far more ambivalent state in Peter Pan.

This article argues that Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials may be read as a series which attempts to assault the Christian doctrine of God. We believe that this demonstrably accords with Pullman’s personal views, and that, through his story, he seeks to foster such views in his readership. However, the accuracy of his attack falls short of its intended mark when it is examined alongside classical Christian theology. The Authority which Pullman’s narrative destroys is actually more akin to the Christian view of the devil than he is the divine, and the victories of Will and Lyra—as a new Adam and Eve—have strong resemblances to the victories which Christianity claims for Christ and Mary. Pullman’s narrative, therefore, becomes an inversion of his deicidal intention rather than an inverting and revolutionary destruction of theology.

Melvin Burgess has gained a reputation as an enfant terrible, whose writing tackles topics and presents attitudes which are controversial in literature for adolescents. Kimberley Reynolds
cites him as an author whose work demonstrates that “writing about sex, sexuality and relationships between the sexes [is]
one of the most radically changed areas in contemporary children’s literature.” Reynolds argues that novels depicting teenage
sexuality no longer focus on socialising teenagers into adult-approved behaviours. Yet changes in literature are never fully
“radical”; they always build on established traditions. This article examines the ways in which Burgess uses the motif of
animal transformation in Tiger Tiger and Lady: My Life as a Bitch to maintain the prevailing view of adolescent carnality as a deviant variation of “proper,” adult sexuality, whilst celebrating
early sexual experiences. 相似文献

This study investigates the mechanisms of scaffolding in a synchronous network-based environment – the ‘collaborative virtual
workplace’. A theoretical ‘multi-actor’ scaffolding model was formulated. The study itself focused on the role and inter-relations
of verbal scaffolding by tutor and peers during a collaborative process of making decisions about environmental issues. The analysis drew on data from the decision-making
discussions of 31 groups – material that was saved automatically by the learning environment software. The age of the 62 students
ranged from 14 to 17. Discourse act categories were devised to describe the tutor’s and the students’ task-related, supportive
and social communicative acts. The scaffolding situation was characterized through a causal discourse act interaction approach.
Tutor and students appeared to be elaborating and replacing each other’s process scaffolding acts in the collaborative decision-making
situation. The influence of certain tutor’s and students’ inter-related scaffolding patterns on students’ decision-making
provided empirical support for the ‘multi-actor’ scaffolding model.

The purpose of this study is to examine fathers’ participation in and views about play. This study was conducted in the southwestern
part of Turkey and its sample consisted of 97 fathers who had a child attending randomly chosen public early childhood institutions.
The Parents’ Participation and Views on Play instrument was developed and used to collect data. Independent sample t tests and a series of repeated measures analysis of variance procedures were conducted to assess the influence of independent
variables on the fathers’ participation in and views on play. The results of the study indicated that fathers frequently participated
in their children’s play, and they hold positive views about play. Fathers’ socio-demographic characteristics such as income,
working status, family type and children’s gender influenced their participation and views about play. Results are discussed
in relation to the literature on parent–child play and suggestions for further research are presented. 相似文献

Uncovering the Potential: The Role of Technologies on Science Learning of Middle School Students 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Angelia Reid-Griffin Glenda Carter 《International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education》2008,6(2):329-350
There is, no doubt, untapped potential in using technological tools to enhance the understanding of science concepts. This
study examines the potential by observing 7th and 8th grade middle school students’ (n = 23) use of portable data collection devices in a nine-week elective class, Exploring Technologies. Students’ use of the data collection devices and subsequent interactions were traced through audiocassette and videocassette
recordings, field notes, and student artifacts. The culminating activity for the course was a scientific investigation that
required students to use the technologies to answer student-selected research questions. To illustrate the use of technology
as a mediatory tool, an inquiry investigation of three student groups is described. In examining the three groups of middle
school students the researchers encountered specific evidence of technology maximizing students’ science learning. The students
were able to use the portable data collection devices in their investigations as they discussed scientific ideas related to
temperature and heat. The study’s findings indicated that the three student groups were able to use the tools to conduct scientific
inquiry and engage in scientific discourse. Further research on instructional approaches that allow students to develop expertise
by using technology as tools to construct knowledge about complex phenomena is encouraged. 相似文献

The author analyzes two texts, Gloria Whelan’s Homeless Bird and Deborah Ellis’s Parvana’s Journey, in an attempt to explain some of the problems and difficulties associated with those texts. The author examines Whelan’s
representations of India and finds troubling binaries associated with that text. In comparison, the author finds Ellis’s depictions
of Afghanistan more nuanced and complex. The author also discusses student reception of both texts and offers ways to problematize
some of their reactions.

The purposes of this study were to determine preservice physics teachers’ instructional beliefs and to investigate the relationship
between their beliefs and practices. The theoretical framework was based on the combination Haney & McArthur’s (Science Education, 86(6):783–802, 2002) research and Ford’s (1992) motivation systems theory. A multicase study design was utilized for the research in order to focus on a belief–practice
relationship within several examples. Semistructured interviews, observations, and preservice teachers’ written documents
were used to collect data. Results showed that most preservice teachers held instructional beliefs aligned with constructivist
philosophy. Some of the preservice teachers’ beliefs were consistent with their practices while some of them presented different
practices from their beliefs in different placements. 相似文献

In this case study, we examine a teacher’s journey, including reflections on teaching science, everyday classroom interaction,
and their intertwined relationship. The teacher’s reflections include an awareness of being “a White middle-class born and
raised teacher teaching other peoples’ children.” This awareness was enacted in the science classroom and emerges through
approaches to inquiry. Our interest in Ms. Cook’s journey grew out of discussions, including both informal and semi-structured interviews, in two
research projects over a three-year period. Our interest was further piqued as we analyzed videotaped classroom interaction
during science lessons and discovered connections between Ms. Cook’s reflections and classroom interaction. In this article,
we illustrate ways that her journey emerges as a conscientization. This, at least in part, shapes classroom interaction, which
then again shapes her conscientization in a recursive, dynamic relationship. We examine her reflections on her “hegemonic
(cultural and socio–economic) practices” and consider how these reflections help her reconsider such practices through analysis
of classroom interaction. Analyses lead us to considering the importance of inquiry within this classroom community.

Tony Brown 《Educational Studies in Mathematics》2012,80(3):475-490
In this volume, Wolff-Michael Roth provides a critical but partial reading of Tony Brown’s book Mathematics Education and Subjectivity. The reading contrasts Brown’s approach with Roth’s own conception of subjectivity as derived from the work of Vygotsky, in which Roth aims to “reunite” psychology and sociology. Brown’s book, however, focuses on how discourses in mathematics education shape subjective action within a Lacanian model that circumnavigates both “psychology” and “sociology”. From that platform, this paper responds to Roth through problematising the idea of the individual as a subjective entity in relation to the two perspectives, with some consideration of corporeality and of how the Symbolic encounters the Real. The paper argues for a Lacanian conception of subjectivity for mathematics education comprising a response to a social demand borne of an ever-changing symbolic order that defines our constitution and our space for action. The paper concludes by considering an attitude to the production of research objects in mathematics education research that resists the normalisation of assumptions as to how humans encounter mathematics. 相似文献

It has been over ten years since the Teacher’s Law took effect on January 1, 1994, and its promulgation and implementation have somewhat helped in protecting teachers’ legal
rights and interests. Undeniably, however, the Teacher’s Law is defective in many aspects, such as the absence of teachers’ legal identity, its failure to safeguard a teacher’s essential
interests and rights, serious laggardness of the teacher’s appointment system and obstacles to dealing with teachers’ complaints
and litigations. All such defectiveness make the legislative purpose “to safeguard the teacher’s legal rights and interests”
in Article 1 of the Teacher’s Law less effective in practice. Therefore, in order to judicially assist teachers in safeguarding their own legal rights and
interests, it is necessary to modify the Teacher’s Law and especially give priorities to: (1) defining the identity of the state staff member for teachers; (2) treating teachers
owed to in arrears as peasant-workers, and paying and remunerating them punctually (3) formulating detailed measures on the
implementation of the teacher’s appointment system as soon as possible, solving problems of unemployment of teachers arising
from the inequality between the teacher’s rights, the school’s power and the absence of the teacher’s identity; (4) establishing
a lawsuit system connected with teachers’ complaints and personnel arbitration.

In recent years, leaders in the school counseling profession worldwide have been calling on their colleagues to re-examine
their role as “agents of social justice” in schools, with a view to promoting equal educational opportunities for all students.
This research examines counselors’ perceptions of the role, role behaviors, personal justice sensitivity, the school’s justice sensitivity and the interrelations among these variables. Two hundred and six Israeli school counselors responded to a questionnaire.
Findings show that the majority of counselors perceived their role as promoting social justice, and indeed engaged in activities
meant to increase disadvantaged students’ chances of success. The variable of role perception was found to mediate between personal sensitivity to justice (justice sensitivity) and counselors’ actual behaviors. These findings have theoretical and practical implications for the professional socialization
of counselors as agents of social justice. 相似文献

This research partially replicated Nilsson and Anderson’s Professional Psychology: Research and Practice (2004) study on training and supervising international students. It investigated the relationships among international counseling
students’ training level, acculturation, supervisory working alliance (SWA), counseling self-efficacy (COSE), role ambiguity
(RA) and multicultural discussion (MD) in supervision. In the present study (N = 71), two acculturation variables and RA predicted SWA. SWA and MD did not predict COSE, while language use in acculturation
did. Training level differences were only associated with COSE. Findings indicate that supervisors should attend to role ambiguity
and multicultural issues when supervising international students, including acculturation issues and their impact on students’
performance. Results are discussed against Nilsson and Anderson’s original study and the implications for supervision of international
counseling students. 相似文献

Our research is concerned with teacher’s knowledge, and especially with teacher’s processes of learning, in the classroom,
from observing and interacting with students’ work. In the first part of the paper, we outline the theoretical framework of
our study and distinguish it from some other perspectives. We argue for the importance of distinguishing a kind of teacher’s
knowledge, which we call didactic knowledge. In this paper, we concentrate on a subcategory of this knowledge, namely observational didactic knowledge, which grows from teacher’s observation and reflection upon students’ mathematical activity in the classroom. In modeling
the processes of evolution of this particular knowledge in teachers, we are inspired, among others, by some general aspects
of the theory of didactic situations. In the second part of the paper, the model is applied in two case studies of teachers
conducting ordinary lessons. In conclusion, we will discuss what seems to be taken into account by teachers as they observe
students’ activity, and how in-service teacher training can play a role in modifying their knowledge about students’ ways
of dealing with mathematical problems. 相似文献

Models of associative learning differ in their predictions concerning the symmetry of generalization decrements. Whereas Pearce’s
(1994) configural model predicts the same response decrement after adding elements to and after removing elements from a previously
trained stimulus, elemental models, such as the replaced elements model and Harris’s (2006) model, anticipate more of a decrement
for removing than for adding elements. In three contingency learning experiments, we manipulated the motion and the spatial
arrangement of colored dots in order to induce configural or elemental processing by perceptual grouping. The results reliably
showed symmetrical decrements for the added and removed groups. The manipulations of the stimuli had no effect on stimulus processing. This is in line with Pearce’s configural model,
but it is at variance with the elemental models and previous studies. 相似文献

Princeton University Press recently published the American moral philosopher Harry Frankfurt’s book On Bullshit, which quickly made the New York Times best seller list. Originally published in the journal Raritan in 1986, Frankfurt’s book has been heralded as an important theoretical development in the study of what he (and society)
colloquially refer to as “bullshit.” Frankfurt formally defines BS as a situation where ones inclination and obligation to
speak about a topic or concept far exceeds one’s knowledge of the topic, which most certainly has been a rising problem for
a number of reasons over the past 20 years. However, Frankfurt’s book, which purports to be a moral victory of sorts, and
despite its popularity, is not only severely flawed and outdated from an educational, cognitive, and philosophical perspective,
but it is also highly oppressive in several different but very important ways. Because this book and its main arguments are
being cited favorably in a number of different academic circles (including the science education community), this paper highlights
the limitations and flaws of this book and develops a counter-argument and model of BS that has important implications for
science, mathematics, philosophy, and educational theory and research. 相似文献

This study examines young children’s ideas about natural science phenomena and explores possibilities in starting investigations
in kindergarten from their ideas. Given the possibilities inherent in how young children make sense of their experiences,
we believe it is critical to take children’s perspectives into consideration when designing any activities, and ideally, to
design activities from their perspectives and understandings. Specifically, this research focuses on 5- and 6-year old children’s explanations of
rainbows, and there are three main findings. First, our analysis demonstrates that opportunities to discuss their ideas revealed
children’s different perceptions of the phenomena of rainbows. Secondly, this research emphasizes that peer-to-peer interaction
in the co-construction of science concepts provided support to the children to learn from, and with, each other. Third, children’s initial explanations provided the teacher-researcher (second author) with a starting point
to scaffold her teaching from. Although rainbows are quite an abstract topic to try to reproduce in the classroom, the children
demonstrated their often sophisticated understandings of natural science phenomena, as well as their creative ideas as related
to rainbows. In order to foster an appreciation of themes in natural science, it is crucial to build from what children already
know and can do, and to use these emergent theories and considerations in designing curriculum. Thus, we draw implications
for the importance of teaching science at the early childhood level and for using children’s ideas as starting points in planning
instruction. 相似文献
