《茶经》中的中学化学课程资源

唐代陆羽撰写的《茶经》被誉为“茶叶百科全书”,是中国乃至世界上最早关于茶文化的史料,也是保留最完整、最全面的茶学专著。通过探析《茶经》中蕴含的育人价值,挖掘《茶经》中的化学课程资源。在化学教学中,将《茶经》中与化学知识契合的传统文化内容作为情境载体建立学习桥梁,从化学角度对传统文化内容进行再认识,从文化视角感受化学中蕴含的人文底蕴,帮助学习和理解化学知识,增强文化认同感和民族自豪感。依据新课标中的情境素材建议与要求,梳理了《茶经》中可与高中化学教科书相联系的内容,为创设真实的情境提供素材,利用古代茶器具与中学化学实验仪器之间的相似性创设情境。并且提出了关于中学化学教学中有效融入传统文化的几点建议。     

Developing and applying quantitative skills maps for STEM curricula,with a focus on different modes of learning

Mapping quantitative skills across the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) curricula will help educators identify gaps and duplication in the teaching, practice and assessment of the necessary skills. This paper describes the development and implementation of quantitative skills mapping tools for courses in STEM at a regional university that offers both on-campus and distance modes of study. Key elements of the mapping project included the identification of key graduate quantitative skills, the development of curriculum mapping tools to record in which unit(s) and at what level of attainment each quantitative skill is taught, practised and assessed, and identification of differences in the way quantitative skills are developed for on-campus and distance students. Particular attention is given to the differences that are associated with intensive schools, which consist of concentrated periods of face-to-face learning over a three-four day period, and are available to distance education students enrolled in STEM units. The detailed quantitative skills mapping process has had an impact on the review of first-year mathematics units, resulted in crucial changes to the curriculum in a number of courses, and contributed to a more integrated approach, and a collective responsibility, to the development of students' quantitative skills for both face-to-face and online modes of learning.     

科学素养教育在我国初中化学课程中的历史演进

科学素养由学科内容和“伴随含义”构成。根据这一理论模型,本文利用文本分析的方法考察了过去20余年间我国初中化学课程目的的变化。文章把这一时期的初中化学课程分为4个阶段,对每一阶段的课程目的从学科内容和“伴随含义”方面进行了分析。在此基础上,总结了初中化学课程目的的变化趋势,从一个侧面展示了科学素养教育在我国初中化学课程中的演进历程。     

New developments and directions in the area of elastomers and rubberlike elasticity

There are number of important developments in the area of elastomeric polymers, including (i) network chains of controlled stiffness, (ii) model elastomers (including dangling-chain networks), (iii) fluorosiloxane elastomers, (iv) new thermoplastic elastomers, (v) other new elastomers, (v) bimodal network chain-length distributions, (vi) cross linking in solution or in a state of deformation, and (vii) gel collapse. Interesting elastomeric composites include those with (i) in-situ generated ceramic-like particles, (ii) ellipsoidal fillers, (iii) clay-like layered fillers, (iv) polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) particles, (v) porous fillers, (vi) elastomeric domains modifying ceramics, and (vii) controlled interfaces. New characterization techniques are being developed for elastomers, and there have been new developments in elasticity theory and in elastomer processing. Some examples of societal aspects of relevance are (i) synthesis of elastomers in environmentally-friendly solvents, (ii) biosynthesis, (iii), recyclability, (iv) improved adhesion to tire cords, and (v) better barrier properties in anti-terrorism clothing. Educational topics include curriculum development, and mobile laboratories for elastomer experiments and demonstrations.
