Thinking teaching method is not only a kind of the change of teaching methods, as well as change of teaching ideas, it focuses on teaching, teaching objectives, teaching idea has profound changes, better reflect the ideology of the quality education. Practice the thinking teaching method for physical education teachers have a new teaching concept, the value of the face up to the cultivation of the ability and intelligence. At the same time also require physical education teachers have a relatively wide range of knowledge, especially about scientific discovery and scientific knowledge of thinking. With the combination of the general interactive teaching and practice teaching approaches, we propose the novel paradigm for badminton education which holds the vital significance.展开更多

The so-called concept of higher vocational education is the rational acknowledgement, the pursuit of ideals and the education thought of vocational education, it is a concept, a state.

I argue that this concept is essentially a trope of reflection and that reflection is thought of itself as itself which involves a "turning around upon oneself." But we do not see ourselves as we actually are, or in our entirety as a physical entity; self knowledge is limited by our nature. What we do not see or attend to is glossed over with the idealizations that are attached to our interest and these are informed by instinctual, or unconscious, intent. The relation between self and other is both contained by and expressed in interpersonal and societal interaction, but still there is an inner aspect that remains sovereign and intimate. Societal values inform our identity, but cannot touch the inner self (or intimate self). We only ever experience ourselves no matter how similar or intimate we are to others. Although physically different from others we mostly aim to be known (identified) in accordance with our own sense of value and self estimation, yet we do not escape judgment from others. One may resist any evidence or opinions about themselves from others that are not in accord with this sense of self value whilst easily accepting ideas and values to be true or accurate facts about them that they only wish to be true. From these two sources of ideas of oneself, internal and externally derived, we form a sense of ourself in comparison to ideal others. This sense of identity informs our actions and choices. We may continually monitor the effect our self-belief has on others and adjust our self-attitude accordingly. Or we may fail to see that others do not share those beliefs we have about ourselves (e.g., a job interview). Narcissism is a human tendency to either exaggerate or underrate one's power or beauty and this leads to false self beliefs. These ideas about oneself are ego-syntonic, within the boundary of the ego, and are thus not (immediately) experienced as being false. Thus, the question as to what is real and what is imagined is at stake in considering how we reflect upon a self which is essentially also a reflection of how others see them. The concept of Narcissism involves this inviolable choice to act for ourself or for others' sake in the pursuit of freedom and satisfaction in social interactions. Taken as an axiologicaUy neutral mode of analysis, Narcissism illuminates the problem of being self in the world of others and goes to the possibility of self determination and knowledge. Specifically, I aim to show that self reflection is the key element of the idea or thought of self, but that form of reflection alone is not enough to ensure error since it is based on a fundamental illusion of ego integrity. However, the attentive mindfulness or open ideation of a purer form of thought which I term "active reflection" allows the possibility of new perspectives hitherto unavailable to the self to form, ensuring that rectification can proceed from experience展开更多

The design thinking tends more to adapting to human self-demand, in order to achieve the purpose of serving for people' s daily life. Therefore, the humanized design concept of modem society is proposed, and in many fields, the humanized design thinking has become mature. This paper mainly takes systematic and overall analysis of the application of humanized design thinking in ceramic modeling, in order to provide relevant reference for the majority of peers.展开更多

In general, it includes three stages, namely cognition, internalization and externalization. By the investigation on the present situation of college students' socialist core value system identity, it can be found that, at present, there is a good development momentum of our country's higher vocational school students' thoughts in general. But it also exists some problems that can't be ignored. Therefore, the top priority should be focused on the students' physical and mental characteristics. We should reform the current education methods gradually, steadily enhance the college students' identity, emotion and behavior cognition of socialist core value system, and gradually strengthen the ideological construction of college students, so as to make them better serve the socialist modernization.展开更多

No transformation is irreversible enough to destroy the experiences of the past, unified as a core in tradition. Those come into light whenever the proper conditions are created. From the point of view of architecture, representation is the basis for the transmission of knowledge, ideas, feelings, etc. The method of the paper is to put in antithesis two concepts which define the present world of representation: real (associated to transcendent revelation) and virtual (understood as result of human imagination). An itinerary through the philosophy of Plato and Plotin, ancient Greek, Byzantine, Gothic architecture, etc., is proposed, until encountering the moment of the death of revelation and the birth of the arbitrary, which is connected to the supremacy of the image. This journey through aesthetic conceptions brought major changes in art and society during the centuries. Recuperation of the involvement of all human senses into perception of space and understanding of the built environment of life as revelation, and not as a simple interface of images, may lead now to a revolution of urban spirit, based on a relationship with the city inspired from the values promoted by Socrates and later developed into Christianity, that proved their permanence across the millenniums.展开更多
