美国积极推动高等教育国际化,着力于提供研究生以上水平的教育,向更多外国学生授予博士学位。新千年美国高等教育国际化出现了几个值得关注的动向:增加联邦拨款强化富布赖特计划;加强对博士和博士后阶段的外国学生、学者的资助;提出了雄心勃勃的林肯计划,促进美国学生留学海外。其背后的原因是美国的科技竞争力下降,以及美国经济持续发展对人才的迫切需求。美国希望以高等教育国际化为政策工具达成三个目的:获得高水平人才,提升竞争力,拓展青年国际视野。  相似文献

"十万强计划"由美国总统奥巴马于2009年11月提出,目标是通过4年时间向中国派遣10万名留学生。为了解美国学生来华参加各类教育活动的实际情况,同时考察美国高等教育机构对学生参加出国教育活动的统计能力,美国国际教育协会(IIE)于2013年1月发布了题为《美国学生赴华:实现"十万强计划"的目标——对美国学生赴华参与出国教育活动的初步研究》的报告。该报告还调查了美国教育机构对未来几年赴华学生数量发展趋势的预期,因此,其研究结果可以作为衡量"十万强计划"未来进展的基准线。本刊编辑部特约首都师范大学文学院孙端对该研究的主要内容进行了编译,以了解美国学生赴华留学现状与前景。  相似文献

The present study investigated whether different forms of disordered-eating-related cognitions and psychological flexibility were associated with psychological distress among female Asian American and European American college students in the United States. Disordered-eating-related cognitions examined in the present study included thoughts (a) associated with the fear of gaining weight, (b) on perceived importance of having an ideal weight and shape as a means of being accepted by others, and (c) of perceived self-worth related to self-control over diet and weight levels. Data from 87 Asian American and 231 European American female college students were used for the present analyses. In both groups, all forms of disordered-eating cognitions were positively associated with psychological distress, which was in turn inversely associated with psychological flexibility. In the Asian American group, cognitions on perceived importance of having an ideal body shape and weight to be socially accepted by others and psychological flexibility were uniquely related to psychological distress when controlling for other disordered-eating cognitions (i.e., thoughts related to fear of weight gain, self-worth from feeling in control of eating), age, and Body Mass Index (BMI). In the European American group, when controlling for other study variables, only psychological flexibility uniquely related to psychological distress. Implications of the present findings for counseling practice are discussed.  相似文献

This study analyzes the perceptions of Turkish and American middle school students of school and schooling by examining the metaphors they produce. A total of 18 American and 24 Turkish students were interviewed as part of this study. The results show differences in the participants' perceptions of schooling by culture. Turkish participants perceived the school environment as family-like, care-giving, psychologically nurturing, educationally exemplary, and physically appealing. School was also seen as a fundamental prerequisite in the preparation for life and the possibility of employment, promising upward social mobility as an adult. Overall, while some American participants perceived school as a wild, crowded, chaotic, boring, painful, regulated environment in which students must learn to survive, others see it as a place of joy, caring, involvement, and learning. The study also indicates that metaphors are useful tools in understanding how students as real actors of school make sense of schooling and their experiences in school.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to examine how the social practices of African American families—with children in grades K-2—changed as a result of participating in a family literacy program utilizing African American children’s literature. The families were exposed, through a series of workshops, to an abundance of children’s literature written by and about African Americans. Data sources included pre and post interviews conducted with parents, parental reading logs, and a reflective journal kept by the researcher. Findings suggested that parents increased the amount of time reading aloud to their children, passed along the information that they learned about African American children’s literature to family, friends, and co-workers, and began seeking out and developing an appreciation for quality African American children’s literature. This study was unique in that it involved collaboration between a public university, a local church, an African American sorority, and an innovative teacher recruitment initiative designed to increase the number of Black, male elementary school teachers.  相似文献

The major purpose of this study was to attempt to understand some of the reasons for the high academic achievement of Chinese and Japanese children compared to American children. The study was conducted with first and fifth graders attending elementary schools in the Minneapolis metropolitan area, Taipei (Taiwan), and Sendai (Japan). 1,440 children (240 first graders and 240 fifth graders in each city) were selected as target subjects in the study. The children were selected from 20 classrooms at each grade in each city and constituted a representative sample of children from these classrooms. In a follow-up study, first graders were studied again when they were in the fifth grade. The children were tested with achievement tests in reading and mathematics constructed specifically for this study, the children and their mothers were interviewed, the children's teachers filled out a questionnaire, and interviews were held with the principals of the schools attended by the children. In the follow-up study, achievement tests were administered, and the children and their mothers were interviewed. Background information about the children's everyday lives revealed much greater attention to academic activities among Chinese and Japanese than among American children. Members of the three cultures differed significantly in terms of parents' interest in their child's academic achievement, involvement of the family in the child's education, standards and expectations of parents concerning their child's academic achievement, and parents' and children's beliefs about the relative influence of effort and ability on academic achievement. Whereas children's academic achievement did not appear to be a central concern of American mothers, Chinese and Japanese mothers viewed this as their child's most important pursuit. Once the child entered elementary school, Chinese and Japanese families mobilized themselves to assist the child and to provide an environment conducive to achievement. American mothers appeared to be less interested in their child's academic achievement than in the child's general cognitive development; they attempted to provide experiences that fostered cognitive growth rather than academic excellence. Chinese and Japanese mothers held higher standards for their children's achievement than American mothers and gave more realistic evaluations of their child's academic, cognitive, and personality characteristics. American mothers overestimated their child's abilities and expressed greater satisfaction with their child's accomplishments than the Chinese and Japanese mothers. In describing bases of children's academic achievement, Chinese and Japanese mothers stressed the importance of hard work to a greater degree than American mothers, and American mothers gave greater emphasis to innate ability than did Chinese and Japanese mothers.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Depression is a major problem among African American older women; however, they also tend to be understudied as members of a multiple minority and oppressed group. As matriarchs and grandmothers in their families and communities, depression often emerges and becomes a detrimental problem for these older African American women. This study, a secondary data analysis, utilized the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) 2010 database to examine depression among older African American women. This article discusses the joint impact of age, social support, religion, caregiving, and physical health on depression among older community dwelling African American women. Findings indicate that age, physical health, and marital status as an aspect of social support were significant predictors of whether or not an older African American woman had ever had depression and whether or not she felt depressed in the past year. Receiving help from relatives as an aspect of social support also remained significant for participants who were feeling depressed in the past year. Implications for research, theory, and policy are offered.  相似文献

成长问题是一个特殊的文学主题,在美国文学史上占有相当重要的地位,也有着悠久的创作传统。19世纪中叶以来,一些作家如霍桑、迈尔维尔以及奥尔科特等通过不同文学形式从不同角度反应年轻人的成长历程。美国独立战争之后到美国内战之前这段时间是美国文学民族身份确立的时期,也是美国成长小说源起的阶段。本文以这期间美国作家创作的《红字》、《白鲸》以及《小妇人》这三部有代表性的成长小说中解读1860年之前美国成长小说的特征以及成因。  相似文献

人权是美国外交政策的重要武器和手段,是美国实现全球利益不可或缺的重要组成部分。人权外交自卡特政府提出以来一直成为美国外交政策中的一个重要方面。上世纪90年代以来我国学术界围绕人权外交出台的原因、实施手段、取得的成效、实质等问题展开了广泛而深入的研究。但与国外同一领域的研究相比,我国学术界对人权外交的研究存在选题重复、观点陈旧、关于美国对中国人权外交的研究不足等问题。  相似文献
