如何提高在线学习者的自我调节能力

与传统课堂教学相比,网络教学环境独有的特点对学习者提出了更高的要求:要求学习者不仅要掌握知识、技能,更要学会学习,管理自己的能力,进行有意义、高效的学习,使其努力指向目标并最终实现目标。本文结合师范生公共必修课《现代教育技术》在线网络课程的教学实践,有效跟踪学习者的学习行为活动,分析学习者的学习状态、学习风格,以及对学习行为的自我调节能力,总结摸索出一些培养并提高学习者自我调节能力的指导性策略,希望能对广大网络学习者有一定的借鉴意义。     

Undergraduate disarmament and nonproliferation education: gaps,opportunities, and new approaches

ABSTRACT

Despite living in a nuclear-weapon state, young Americans are generally ill-informed about weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and their means of control. The result is both widespread apathy toward nonproliferation and disarmament decision making among the general public and a looming personnel crisis within government sectors that enact policy in these domains. Considering that 67 percent of high school graduates in the United States go on to pursue a bachelor’s degree, exposing more undergraduates to nonproliferation and disarmament issues could contribute to addressing both of these challenges. The present study analyzes how these issues are already being taught at select US colleges and universities and explores ways to introduce them to more students that align with current priorities in higher education, such as interdisciplinary learning, digital humanities, and data-science learning. It also proposes concrete steps that the WMD policy community can take to help institutions of higher education integrate these topics more broadly into their curricula. The anticipated result is greater support for education in this important issue area across different stakeholders in academia, as well as increased engagement with these critical issues among a more diverse population of young people.     

基于航路点跟踪的AUV回收控制

针对军事侦察和海洋观测领域中对自主水下航行器(AUV)自主回收能力的需求,研究了AUV自主回收中的航路点跟踪控制问题.在海流干扰作用下,设计航路点规划跟踪路径,然后运用自适应滑模方法设计AUV的动力学控制规律.采用横向跟踪控制算法,使AUV精确地沿着规划的运动路径进入回收器中.仿真结果表明,所设计的控制规律是有效的,AUV能较好地完成航路点的跟踪任务,并最终到达回收器中实现了对接.     

常值海流作用下多自主水下航行器编队控制

研究了常值海流作用下自主水下航行器(Autonomous Underwater Vehicle,AUV)的编队控制问题.控制器设计分为两部分:一部分综合应用Lyapunov方法和Backstepping技术设计了单体AUV路径跟踪动力学控制律,保证了路径跟踪误差在常值海流作用下的全局渐进稳定;另一部分为路径参数一致性协同跟踪控制器,保证在仅有一个或一部分AUV获取虚拟领航AUV路径参数更新速度情形下能对其进行协同跟踪.从理论上证明了整个闭环系统的稳定性.仿真结果表明了所提出方法的有效性.     

On valuing appreciating human assets in services

This paper derives optimal policies for when to hire, train, and lay off employees in service organizations when worker productivity appreciates deterministically or stochastically under constant, monotonic, and cyclic service demand. The model, an extension of the machine replacement problem from the engineering economy literature, uses infinite horizon linear programming to produce optimal personnel planning strategies and dual prices that characterize the workforce's economic value. The effect of employee attrition is also considered. In its valuation of human assets, unlike pure accounting approaches that only try to measure, this paper proposes an approach to capture the interaction between firm decisions pertaining to human resources and human resource value. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

新疆高校预科汉语教学中有关问题的调查与思考

课时的安排,教材的使用,课程的合理设置,是保证教学任务顺利实施的前提。长期以来,新疆各高校预科汉语教学对此一直没有一个统一的认识,严重制约了该学科的发展。作者对全疆部分院校民族预科学生进行了问卷调查,其分析结果为新疆预科教学改革提供一定的参考。     

Sequential learning versus no learning in Bayesian regression models

We consider two regression models: linear and logistic. The dependent variable is observed periodically and in each period a Bayesian formulation is used to generate updated forecasts of the dependent variable as new data is observed. One would expect that including new data in the Bayesian updates results in improved forecasts over not including the new data. Our findings indicate that this is not always true. We show there exists a subset of the independent variable space that we call the “region of no learning.” If the independent variable values for a given period in the future are in this region, then the forecast does not change with any new data. Moreover, if the independent variable values are in a neighborhood of the region of no learning, then there may be little benefit to wait for the new data and update the forecast. We propose a statistical approach to characterize this neighborhood which we call the “region of little learning.” Our results provide insights into the trade‐offs that exist in situations when the decision maker has an incentive to make an early decision based on an early forecast versus waiting to make a later decision based on an updated forecast. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

刍议英文电影在大学英语课堂教学中的运用

在英语课堂教学中运用英文电影,可为学生提供丰富的语境化的语言和真实的跨文化信息,为学生创造在课堂上实践语言的机会,也更能激发学生的英语学习兴趣。分析在非英语专业学生课堂教学中选择英文电影的标准,探讨电影观前、观看和观后三个阶段的教学活动。     

真实性语言实践活动对大学生外语交际策略和听说能力的影响

外语交际能力是社会所需高水平复合应用型人才应具备的素养。本研究考察真实性语言应用实践活动对非英语专业大学生外语交际策略和听说能力的影响。通过对比研究发现,学生参加了真实性语言应用实践活动后,其交际策略使用情况得到改善,更倾向于使用积极交际策略,消极策略的使用频率明显减少;听说水平整体得到提高;寻找机会说英语的主动性增强。因此,真实性语言应用实践活动有助于大学生提高外语交际能力,提高社会所需整体应用能力素养。     

论高中《政治生活》实施探究性学习的一般模式

探究性学习的实质是要求教师转变教育观念,在教学中充分调动学生学习的主动性和积极性,激发学生学习的主人翁意识,真正使学生成为学习的主人。因此高中政治课的课堂教学应该充分渗透探究性学习的精神,同时教师又应在这一宗旨的指导下,根据教材的内容和特点的不同采用不同的模式,选用不同的方法,这样才能达到构建高效课堂的目的。
