The Research on Cross-Cultural Critical Thinking in English Teaching: A Pedagogical Paradigm Within the Ideological and Political Course Framework

The conflation of linguistic competencies with ideological and political educational paradigms presents unique opportunities and challenges for English language teaching(ELT)in our increasingly interconnected world.This research seeks to address the role of cross-cultural critical thinking within the landscape of English pedagogy,framed by the imperatives of ideological and political education.Employing a multi-method approach,including thematic content analysis and action research,the study proposes a pedagogical model designed to integrate transcultural discourse and ideologically reflective practices into the conventional ELT curriculum.This paper argues for a reimagined approach to teaching English that encourages students to engage with diverse cultural perspectives and develop a nuanced understanding of global issues.

An In-depth Interpretation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights With the Common Values of Humanity As the Research Paradigm

Interpreting the Universal Declaration of Human Rights from political,juridical and philosophical perspectives is es-sential for promoting the guiding principles of the Declaration,build-ing consensus on human rights,and advancing human rights practice in the new historical context.To conduct an academic,systematic in-terpretation of the Declaration that conforms to the trends of the times and answers the fundamental questions of the world,it is necessary to find a new research paradigm.The common values of humanity,namely peace,development,equity,justice,democracy and freedom,put forward by Xi Jinping,general secretary of the Communist Party of China(CPC)Central Committee,provide the most explanatory and penetrating scientific paradigm for reaching the issue.This paper an-alyzes and reflects on the views,value foundation and principled(con-tractual)consensus of human rights in the Declaration,and narrates and foresees the far-reaching significance of the three global initia-tives(namely,the Global Development Initiative,the Global Security Initiative,and the Global Civilization Initiative)with the common val-ues of humanity as the soul in advancing the modernization of global human rights governance and building a new form of human rights civilization.

From Control to Empowerment:A Paradigm Shift in the Discourse of Educational Supervision

As educational reforms intensify and societal emphasis shifts towards empowerment,the traditional discourse paradigm of management and control in educational supervision faces growing challenges.This paper explores the transformation of this discourse paradigm through the lens of empowerment,analyzing its distinct characteristics,potential pathways,and effective strategies.This paper begins by reviewing the concept of empowerment and examining the current research landscape surrounding the discourse paradigm in educational supervision.Subsequently,we conduct a comparative analysis of the“control”and“empowerment”paradigms,highlighting their essential differences.This analysis illuminates the key characteristics of an empowerment-oriented approach to educational supervision,particularly its emphasis on dialogue,collaboration,participation,and,crucially,empowerment itself.Ultimately,this research advocates for a shift in educational supervision towards an empowerment-oriented discourse system.This entails a multi-pronged approach:transforming ingrained beliefs,embracing renewed pedagogical concepts,fostering methodological innovation,and optimizing existing mechanisms and strategies within educational supervision.These changes are proposed to facilitate the more effective alignment of educational supervision with the pursuit of high-quality education.

DAO to HANOI via DeSci: AI Paradigm Shifts from AlphaGo to ChatGPT

From AlphaGo to ChatGPT,the field of AI has launched a series of remarkable achievements in recent years.Analyzing,comparing,and summarizing these achievements at the paradigm level is important for future AI innovation,but has not received sufficient attention.In this paper,we give an overview and perspective on machine learning paradigms.First,we propose a paradigm taxonomy with three levels and seven dimensions from a knowledge perspective.Accordingly,we give an overview on three basic and twelve extended learning paradigms,such as Ensemble Learning,Transfer Learning,etc.,with figures in unified style.We further analyze three advanced paradigms,i.e.,AlphaGo,AlphaFold and ChatGPT.Second,to enable more efficient and effective scientific discovery,we propose to build a new ecosystem that drives AI paradigm shifts through the decentralized science(DeSci)movement based on decentralized autonomous organization(DAO).To this end,we design the Hanoi framework,which integrates human factors,parallel intelligence based on a combination of artificial systems and the natural world,and the DAO to inspire AI innovations.

William Morris Davis: Father of Geomorphology or Father of Geology’s Unrecognized Paradigm Problem

An often unrecognized problem is the geology and glacial history paradigm’s inability to explain topographic map drainage system and erosional landform evidence, which means geology research studies rarely address that type of topographic map evidence. The problem originated in the late 19th century with William Morris Davis who is sometimes called the father of geomorphology and was one of the first geologists to interpret what in the late 19th century were newly available topographic maps. An 1889 Davis paper describes selected drainage system evidence observed on an advance copy of the 1890 Doylestown (Pennsylvania) topographic map and an 1892 Ward paper written after discussions with Davis describes additional selected drainage system evidence seen on the same map. Both papers fail to mention the majority of the Doylestown map’s drainage system features including most barbed tributaries, asymmetric drainage divides, and through (dry) valleys crossing major drainage divides. Had Davis used all of the map’s drainage system and erosional landform evidence he should have recognized the map evidence shows headward erosion of an east-oriented Neshaminy Creek valley captured southwest-oriented streams which headward erosion of the south-oriented Delaware River valley and its east-oriented tributary Tohickon Creek valley had beheaded. Consciously or unconsciously, Davis chose not to alert future investigators that Doylestown topographic map evidence did not support his yet-to-be-published Pennsylvania and New Jersey erosion history interpretations and instead Davis proceeded to develop and promote erosion history interpretations which the map evidence did not support.

Locomotion Paradigms of Topological Space in Shakespeare’s Double Falsehood

In the 16th and 17th century,Britain was constantly strained by sporadic plagues,famines,fires and political conflicts.As a response in literature,Shakespeare has constructed an annular locomotion paradigm in Fletcher and his collaboration work Cardenio.Be more specific,the locomotion routes can be exemplified in Möbius strip,a rhizome system,a reciprocating juxtaposition between the foreground and the background,either of which finally runs to an annular schema.The annular in narration corresponds with The Globe theater and the round world.Shakespeare may express his expectation and prospect for the uprising bourgeoise and the newly found world by the resurrection theme in literature.

Establishment of Optimized Eco-productive Paradigm in the Farming-Pastoral Zone of Northern China

The farming-pastoral zone of northern China plays a dual role in ecological conditions and production and occupies an important position in the national economy. In this paper, the methodology of system engineering is introduced to construct and optimize an eco-productive paradigm system for the typical areas of the farming-pastoral zone. The system was constructed in the following steps: (1) design the framework of the paradigm system based on the data of physical site characteristics, biocommunities, production and economy, social culture and historical changes; (2) analyze the vegetation patterns, the interactions between vegetation and environmental factors (natural, social, economic, etc.) and the contributions of vegetation to the area, including the synthesis of the existing researches; and (3) provide the spatial arrangements of ecosystems and planning of each area, raise a comprehensive indicators of evaluation, evaluate the feasibility and soundness, and determine the optimum eco-productive paradigms for policy-makers which were land-use patterns within the threshold of ecological conservation. Three primitive paradigms of Maowusu (Mu Us) Ssandy Land, Loess Plateau and Huailai Basin in the farming-pastoral zone of northern China were proposed according to this paradigm system.

LCZ696开启射血分数减低心力衰竭患者治疗的新时代:来自PARADIGM-HF的证据

心力衰竭(心衰)是由于任何心脏结构或功能异常导致心室充盈或射血能力受损的一组复杂临床综合征,其发病率、病死率高。肾素-血管紧张素-醛固酮系统(RAAS)的长期激活在心衰发生发展的病理生理学机制中发挥着重要作用。血管紧张素转换酶抑制剂(ACEI)、血管紧张素受体拮抗剂(ARB)以及醛固酮受体拮抗剂(MRA)已经被大规模临床试验证实对心衰具有良好的治疗效果,在心衰药物治疗策略中处于重要地位。2014年8月30日在欧洲心脏病学会年会首次公布PARADIM-HF的研究结果显示,在患者已经使用了β受体阻滞剂和MRA基础之上,LCZ696使心血管病死亡风险降低了20%,慢性心衰患者因心衰而住院的次数减少了21%。LCZ696以其独特的双相作用模式,再次证实调节神经内分泌是治疗心衰的现代观念。LCZ696将带来传统心衰药物治疗的革新。心衰治疗将大跨步进入一个新时代。

Review of studies on target acquisition in virtual reality based on the crossing paradigm

Crossing is a fundamental paradigm for target selection in human-computer interaction systems.This paradigm was first introduced to virtual reality(VR)interactions by Tu et al.,who investigated its performance in comparison to pointing,and concluded that crossing is generally no less effective than pointing and has unique advantages.However,owing to the characteristics of VR interactions,there are still many factors to consider when applying crossing to a VR environment.Thus,this review summarizes the main techniques for object selection in VR and crossing-related studies.Then,factors that may affect crossing interactions are analyzed from the perspectives of the input space and visual space.The aim of this study is to provide a reference for future studies on target selection based on the crossing paradigm in virtual reality.

Extraction of methane hydrate energy by carbon dioxide injection-key challenges and a paradigm shift

Significant effort including field work has been devoted to develop a natural gas extraction technology from natural gas hydrate reservoirs through the injection of carbon dioxide. Natural gas hydrate is practically methane hydrate. The hypothesis is that carbon dioxide will be stored as hydrate owing to its favorable stability conditions compared to methane hydrate. Although the dynamics of the CO2/CH4 exchange process are not entirely understood it is established that the exchange process is feasible. The extent is limited but even if the CH4 recovery is optimized there is a need for a CH4/CO2 separation plant to enable a complete cyclic sequence of CO2 capture, injection and CH4 recovery. In this paper we propose an alternative paradigm to the Inject(CO2)/Exchange with(CH4)/Recover(CH4) one namely Recover(CH4) first and then Inject(CO2) for Storage.

Tencent WeChat’s Micro-Innovation of Integration and Iteration under Technical Paradigm Transformation

This paper attempts to broaden the theory of dynamic competences, defining them as the abilities of firms to integrate and reconstruct in a chaotic and complex environment of technical paradigm transformation （TP transformation）. We have created a semi-interactive theoretical framework based on dynamic competences, technical paradigms and innovation strategies to investigate how corporate dynamic competences support innovation during TP transformation. Under this theoretical framework, this paper attempts to open the popular question of mobile Internet industry - the black box of ＂micro innovation＂ - to conduct an in-depth case study of WeChat＇s micro-innovation featuring ＂integration＂ and ＂iteration ＂. The authors have discovered that the success of WeChat can be attributed to the following factors： seizure of strategic opportunities during TP transformation, effective organizational learning and knowledge management, and powerful virtual integration competences across regions, sectors and firms. These factors have led to the rapid, repetitive and precise iteration of innovation based on technical knowledge and user information. Open and coordinated innovation was carried out ahead of competitors, partners and lead customers, and effective quality control of micro-innovation was conducted to mitigate the uncertainties and risks of innovation failures. These factors have enabled WeChat to become a third-party service platform of disruptive innovation and value creation in the mobile lnternet era. The theoretical contributions of this paper are as follows：it has enriche＇d the theory of dynamic competences, conducted a groundbreaking analysis on the intrinsic mechanism of micro-innovation strategy for Internet firms from the height of technical paradigms, and elaborated how dynamic competences support innovation strategies during TP transformation. This paper offers theoretical support and practical guidance for Internet firms to innovate in the context of TP transformation.
