Research on the Activity Frame Work of Using Visual Thinking Tools

The development of high order thinking has been considered as a national priority of learning. By using three iteration action research in six elementary schools in Guangzhou, China for about 1 year and a half, we found that visual thinking tools can improve students＇ high order thinking ability and change the traditional teaching method. By using this activity frame work, the teachers can better understand what are the students thinking about and the students can use the thinking tools to help themselves solve complex problems and discuss with other people. The reason we do this research is to improve the high-order thinking ability of primary student. In this paper, we summarize an activity frame work of using visual thinking tools to improve students thinking ability. And the frame work can be divided into three stages： preparatory stage, implementation stage and assessment stage. And different stage has different activity. Though this activity frame work is not perfect enough, we will improve it in our future study.

The Ways of Thinking in a Sample of the Student Community of the Subjects of Structured Programming and Numerical Methods in Engineering of the UAM-Azcapotzalco within the Emerging Remote Teaching Project (PEER)

Due to the pandemic that is currently being experienced worldwide, educational institutions (HEIs) have had to reinvent and innovate the mode of teaching, in order to continue the process of training students at all educational levels. Higher education has not been immune to this situation, the institutions of this educational level face various challenges in remote teaching: one of them, perhaps the most important, was to answer the question: How to get the student to continue their undergraduate studies remotely? In this sense, it was necessary, on the part of the students and the teachers, a preparation to go from the face-to-face to the virtual mode. This paper addresses the specific case of the analysis of the teaching-learning process of the Teaching-Learning Unit (UEA for its acronym in Spanish) of Structured Programming and Numerical Methods for Engineering at the undergraduate level, at the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana, Unidad Azcapotzalco (UAM-A) and its relation to the student’s way of thinking. Likewise, the analysis will be carried out if the way of thinking of the students of the sample influences their academic performance when studying the subject of Structured Programming and Numerical Methods for Engineering.

Yearning the Moon with Sixpence in Hand: Exploring the Relation­ship between External Corporate Social Responsibility, Employee Commitment, and Design Thinking

Prior studies have emphasized the positive relationship between corporate social responsibility(CSR)and employee organizational identification,with the argument that external CSR acts could enhance employee commitment,work engagement,and loyalty via perceived prestige.Despite such emphasis,minimal suggestion has been given in terms of how to design and execute a moderate,structural,and sustainable CSR program to bond with employees on a deeper level of emotional connection.The aim of the present study was to highlight the benefits of adopting the design thinking method for investing and practicing external CSR,so as to realize a positive link between employee commitment,financial performance,and social recognition.

Cultural study on trade disputes between China and the West

In recent years, China＇s international trade has made great actuevements, However, when carefully reviewing its performance in the international market, we have to admit a fact that ＂Chinese businessmen＂ and ＂Made in China＂ are encountering great challenges, even aversion in many foreign markets. The so-called ＂Yellow peril theory＂ and ＂China threat theory＂ have caught on once again. Faced with such frequent trade conflicts, we fall into contemplation. Why did trade conflicts so frequently happen？ Do these conflicts merely remain at the commercial level？ Or, are there any deep-seated conflicts leading to trade conflicts？ What are the root causes of these conflicts？ How to overcome and avoid these conflicts in the future？ With these questions, this paper is designed to inquire into the root cause of trade conflicts and the constructive suggestions to settle trade conflicts from a cultural perspective.

How I Found My Way to the Written Word Through Visual Art

The author＇s practice-led research explores ＂the act of living.＂ In order to advance this idea, the author has acquired skills in investigation and expresses her thinking through a descriptive and explanatory visual language. The author＇s learning journey, while not unique, has not been an ordinary one. Initial academic failure to achieve in the school education system contributed to her choosing a life working on the land and harbouring the belief that she was unable to learn academically. Still, the author has gained a rich base of physical knowledge and experience through the traditional oral route including learning interpersonal communication through body language and vocal tonality. The author has used this intuitive knowledge to develop an arts practice where she explores the bio-cultural links between people and the lands they inhabit, creating works that aim to extend knowing through emphasising the experience and atmosphere of landscape. At this time, when our lives have become increasingly encoded and intellectually based, the author shares a belief with American philosopher Eugene Gendlin （b. 1926） that the ＂felt sense＂ can be developed in order to enable us to engage more fully with the world around us. The author explores this idea in her visual art but also realizes the need to express it in writing, both in order to reach a wider public and because of the possibilities offered by the written word to make public which is private and held deep within.

Means of Choice for Interactive Management of Dynamic Geometry Problems Based on Instrumented Behaviour

Our paper presents a project that involves two research questions: does the choice of a related problem by the tutorial system allow the problem solving process which is blocked for the student to be restarted? What information about learning do related problems returned by the system provide us? We answer the first question according to the didactic engineering, whose mode of validation is internal and based on the confrontation between an a priori analysis and an a posteriori analysis that relies on data from experiments in schools. We consider the student as a subject whose adaptation processes are conditioned by the problem and the possible interactions with the computer environment, and also by his knowledge, usually implicit, of the institutional norms that condition his relationship with geometry. Choosing a set of good problems within the system is therefore an essential element of the learning model. Since the source of a problem depends on the student’s actions with the computer tool, it is necessary to wait and see what are the related to problems that are returned to him before being able to identify patterns and assess the learning. With the simultaneity of collecting and analysing interactions in each class, we answer the second question according to a grounded theory analysis. By approaching the problems posed by the system and the designs in play at learning blockages, our analysis links the characteristics of problems to the design components in order to theorize on the decisional, epistemological, representational, didactic and instrumental aspects of the subject-milieu system in interaction.

Agile Practices Adoption in Romania and Their Benefits

The Agile methods have become the norm in the software development industry to defeat the shortcomings of the Waterfall model(McGregor&Doshi,2018).It promotes an empirical and iterative way of working that empowers the teams to be more self-organized and work closer to their users.As worldwide companies are more and more experienced in using Agile,studies show that the most prevalent advantages generated by this way of working are:increased productivity,improved customer collaboration,better predictability,fewer technical errors,and higher team motivation(Version One,2019).The author’s comprehensive studies about the Agile way of working helped her identify a list of essential practices that teams should apply to reach each one of the mentioned benefits.While Agile is more widespread in specific places in the world,there are still counties that are not that mature in applying it.The purpose of this paper is to present the level of adoption of the most common Agile practices in Romania and their potential benefits.The study focuses on the software development industry,and it is based on the results of a survey with 200 respondents coming from different IT companies.

资源下乡背景下乡村关系的差序格局及其形塑逻辑

以“一乡−多村”为乡村关系的两个主体,突破过去将乡村关系中的“村”视为一个抽象整体的研究进路,提出“乡村关系的差序格局”。在“行政消解自治”乡村一体化的背景下,乡镇与其下辖的各行政村的关系存在“亲疏远近”之别。形塑这种亲疏远近的要素主要有三个:一是特定行政村在中央或地方涉农政策中的重要性。政策性位置越突出,其与乡镇的关系越亲近。二是特定行政村村治情况良善与否。村干部治村能力越强,其与乡镇的关系越亲近。三是特定行政村在体制内有无先赋性外联关系。这种外联关系越重要,其与乡镇的关系越亲近。自上而下的各类资源在各行政村之间的配置,相应由乡村关系的差序格局来形塑。
