From Vision to Action: One Campus's Experience with the UC CONSER Funnel     

Xiaoli Li  Michael Colby 《Cataloging & classification quarterly》2018,56(2-3):214-223

ABSTRACT

In 2006, the University of California launched a Cooperative Online Serials Program (CONSER) Funnel. It paved the way for serials catalogers across UC libraries to work with CONSER records in the OCLC WorldCat database. The first funnel dealing with bibliographic records in a decentralized approach in the Program for Cooperative Cataloging's history, it has had significant impact locally and nationally. The UC Davis Library was one of the early participants. Valerie Bross was instrumental in its establishment and implementation. This article presents the view from a participating library's standpoint and complements Valerie's article which was published here in 2010.  相似文献   

Interview with Dr. Ken Haycock as Conducted by Dr. Robert P. Holley     

Robert P. Holley 《图书馆管理杂志》2017,57(1):123-133

Dr. Ken Haycock directs the recently created Master of Management in Library and Information Science (MMLIS) program in the Marshall School of Business at the University of Southern California. As the only LIS program located in a major business school, the MMLIS is focused on integrating business skills with traditional library and information science to graduate students who are prepared for leadership roles in the profession. The MMLIS program requires students to have prior work experience. Students work in teams to solve real world problems and also choose an independent project. Of particular interest is a proposed special track for experienced library and information science managers to acquire the MLIS.  相似文献   

Get ‘Em In,Get ‘Em Out: Finding a Road from Turnaway Data to Repurposed Space     

Nikki DeMoville  Aaron Wood 《期刊图书馆员》2016,70(1-4):266-271

Statistical analysis and comparison of library print and online holdings are used to reduce shelf area and inform index back-file purchases. Nikki DeMoville of California Polytechnic State University’s Robert E. Kennedy Library combined Counting Online Usage of Networked Electronic Resources (COUNTER) JR2 Access Denied usage reports, holdings information, and print circulation data to identify journals exhibiting a high desirability for online access and low print circulation. In this presentation, DeMoville shared how further combination of this data with ScienceDirect quote lists for back-file journal packages and Web of Science metrics could be used to support the efficient de-selection of print journals, allowing the library to recover the maximum amount of physical space while also acquiring backfile access to those titles most frequently needed in electronic format. The presentation detailed the workflows and comparative methodology used to reach collection management and development decisions for journal coverage, with an emphasis on before and after metrics.  相似文献   

Rethinking the History of Education for Asian-American Children in California in the Second Half of the Nineteenth Century     

Kyung Eun Jahng 《Educational Philosophy and Theory》2013,45(3):301-317

This article brings to light discourses that constituted the education of Asian-American children in California in the second half of the nineteenth century. Guided by Foucaultian ideas and critical race theory, I analyze California public school laws, speeches of a governor-elect and a superintendent, and a report of the board of supervisors, from the 1860s to the 1880s. During this targeted period, the images and narratives of Asian-American children were inscribed with racism. Racializing politics rendered them to be disqualified from attending public schools. Segregated schooling for them was legally ordered and therefore unquestioned. It was a discursive practice implemented on their bodies by dint of a mechanism of a spatial division. This article reveals the shifting dominancy of discourses regarding Asian-American children. Rather than accepting the given historical facts, I intend to reread historical texts in order to rethink the education of Asian-American children through a Foucaultian encounter with critical race theory. Acknowledging different interpretations of the past events is a way of rethinking them and interrogating the history through the revelation of different histories in the education for Asian-American children.  相似文献   

美国CSET初级教育技术能力考试的特点及其启示     

张均兵 《中国考试》2011,(6)

研究美国加州教师教育能力考试项目中的初级教育技术能力考试有助于完善我国相关考试项目,如全国中小学教师教育技术水平考试和教师资格认证考试。其考核内容包括在教学环境中需要运用计算机的各种能力。考生要获得多学科或单一学科教师证书以及教育专家指导证书就必须通过该考试。其特点包括:考查内容综合全面,界定清晰明确;偏重教育技术的应用能力考核,兼顾教育技术的基础知识考核;简答题评分标准详尽规范,且提供正反两方面的范例,可操作性较强,便于阅卷教师参考。不足之处是采用了传统的纸笔考试而未采用机考。  相似文献   

加州高等教育总体规划的经验教训及其启示     

曹萍 《现代教育论丛》2011,(2)

《加州高等教育总体规划1960-1975》有力地促进了加利福尼亚州高等教育的发展。它不仅成功地化解了公立高等院校之间的矛盾,使高等学校之间停止了恶性竞争,而且把加州高等教育引上了健康有序发展的道路。规划实施后,加州大学系统、州立大学系统和社区学院系统都得到了很大发展,使加州公立高等教育系统成为美国运转最为良好而且质量一流的公立高等教育系统。加州高等教育总体规划对各层次高校成功定位的经验,对我国高校的结构层次划分可能包含积极的借鉴意义或警示意义的因素。  相似文献

A cross-cultural confirmation of the dimensions of intercultural effectiveness     

Hiroko Abe  Richard L. Wiseman 《Int J Intercult Relat》1983,7(1):53-67

This study attempted to further our understanding of the construct of “intercultural effectiveness.” Specifically, the study compared the dimensions of intercultural effectiveness found in Hammer, Gudykunst, and Wiseman (1978) using American sojourners with the dimensions found using Japanese sojourners. The results revealed five dimensions for the Japanese sample: (1) the ability to communicate interpersonally, (2) the ability to adjust to different cultures, (3) the ability to deal with different societal systems, (4) the ability to establish interpersonal relationships, and (5) the ability to understand another. Both similarities and differences were found between the American perceptions and the Japanese perceptions of intercultural effectiveness. The implications of these results were then discussed.  相似文献   

Rural women in development: Veil of invisibility,world of workFemmes rurales et le developpement: Voile d'invisibilite,monde de travailLas mujeres rurales en el desarrolo: El velo de las invisibilidad,en mundo del trabajo     

Rae Lesser Blumberg 《Int J Intercult Relat》1979,3(4):447-472

Over the last decade, evidence has been accumulating that the process of development has resulted more frequently in greater economic marginalization than benefits for poor rural women in much of the Third World. Yet recent efforts aimed at incorporating these poor non-urban women into development have been hampered by the “veil of invisibility” hiding their past and present conditions and contributions. This article formulates some hypotheses concerning female invisibility as well as productivity, and then contrasts the extant view of rural Third World women as relatively unproductive with (1) evidence drawn from evolutionary history, and (2) data from new micro-level and UN studies. The former indicates that women were the primary producers in most pre-agrarian human groups. The latter indicate that women continue to produce approximately half the world's food, although there is dramatic regional variation. The article concludes with an analysis of the statistical biases and stereotypes that obscure these contributions and briefly indicates the cost of this invisibility to the countries involved as well as to the women themselves.  相似文献
