高中英语阅读教学中批判性思维的培养

批判性思维是创新思维的前提,是思维活动中善于严格的分析思维的材料和精细地检查思维过程的能力.但是,在我国教育活动中,相对缺乏对批判性思维的培养.在过去较长的一段时间里,有相当一部分教育工作者忽视了教育的本质功能,而忽视了学生的主动质疑与思考的批判性思维能力的培养,从而导致学生的批判思维没有被激发,在创新能力方面成效不突出.因此,在教学中培养学生批判思维是十分必要的.本篇文章重点探讨将批判思维纳入高中英语阅读教学中的有效方式,同时提出教师培养学生批判思维过程中应注意的问题.

EVIDENCE ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ECONOMICS AND CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS

This research provides empirical support for the hypothesis that learning economics increases a student's critical thinking skills. Using the short form of the Watson-Glaser Critical Thinking Appraisal (WGCTA-S) as our measure of critical thinking skills, we find that students who gain a high level of economic understanding in their introductory economics class, as measured by the Test of Understanding College Economics (TUCE), have statistically significant gains in their WGCTA-S scores. Students who spend more time taking classes and are more fully engaged in the university experience also have greater gains in critical thinking. These results lend support to the idea that introductory economics courses can work in concert with other university level courses, especially within the context of a full-time curriculum, to enhance critical thinking skills.

Do Electronic Discussions Create Critical Thinking Spillovers?

Few academics question the relevance of critical thinking in higher education, yet there has been little attempt to investigate which specific pedagogies aid in its development. In this study we assess whether critical thinking can be taught effectively using electronic discussions. In most discussions analyzed, the data show that the quality of a student's argument is positively influenced by the quality of their peers'arguments (critical thinking spillovers). While the use of this pedagogy is promising, best results require an appropriate topic as well as effective management of the discussion. (JEL A2)     

Transformation through the Brigades

Teaching critical thinking skills beyond a formulaic, positivist set of questions is a central challenge in radical political economy and critical geography. Grounded in historical consciousness and a quest for human emancipation, critical thinking emerges as part of praxis, the reflective combination of theory and practice. Drawing on Gramsci and Freire, this paper presents the example of the Bucknell Brigades in which students learn about community based initiatives and work with an NGO grounded in community defined projects. The Brigades push the boundaries of most service-learning based in most social service agencies by offering a glimpse of historical consciousness, praxis, critical thinking, all with an emancipatory perspective.     

Effectively Moderating Electronic Discussions

Although instructors are increasingly using electronic discussions with both traditional and online classes, little has been written about how to best moderate these discussions. Moderating online discussions requires tremendous skill. As with in-class discussions, the primary goal of the moderator is to ensure that the discussion continually makes progress toward more advanced critical thinking. Because of this, moderator comments should be limited to helping students make the transitions associated with increasing cognitive complexity rather than leading them to predetermined answers. Building on the existing literature on both in-class and online discussions to teach critical thinking, the authors develop concrete strategies that can be used to make discussions more productive.

A survey of evolutionary policy: normative and positive dimensions

We explore public policy from the perspective of evolutionary analysis. Potential entry points for developing a normative evolutionary policy theory are examined, which involves a critical examination of the related idea of “evolutionary progress”. The meaning of evolutionary policy is next studied from two different, normative and positive angles: namely, policy design informed by evolutionary thinking; and policy-making and politics as an evolutionary process. Several examples are provided to discuss the value of evolutionary thinking for policy, including in the context of the current economic crisis. Next, evolutionary policy is compared with policy advice coming from two dominant schools of policy analysis, namely neoclassical economics and public choice theory. We conclude that evolutionary thinking offers a distinct and useful perspective on public policy change and design. Nevertheless, there is a need for more synthesis and coherence among different studies as well as for policy experiments and in-depth empirical studies.     

创新性法学实践教学方案的重构与实施

实践教学是培养法律专门人才的一种有效手段，它对检验学生所学专业知识和理论体系、训练法学专业思维、强化法律职业伦理修养、提高法律职业技能等都具有极其重要的作用。在目前的法学实践教学中，存在着实践环节缺乏系统的理论作指导、实践教学内容较单一、教学环节与学生所处的年级及开设的专业课程相脱节等现象。因此，应通过建立实践教学激励机制、建立实践教学评估体系等举措以加强法学实践教学。     

建设社会主义新农村:背景、核心和载体
