本文讨论了教育经济区域的概念 ,教育经济区划的意义、理论基础、方法与步骤。在此基础上 ,将我国3 0个省市区划分成直辖市、发达、中等发达、欠发达等四类教育经济区域。并就教育经济区域与行政区划、地域分布的关系和各类地区在社会经济发展水平。

教育地理学简论

本文结合地理科学和教育科学的发展现状以及我国教育发展的实际，提出了建立教育地理学的重要理论意义和现实意义，对教育地理学的研究对象、性质、内容及学科结构体系进行了初步的探讨。认为教育地理学是一门从地理学的角度，用空间的观点，系统研究教育地域组合的形成、发展及教育地理空间分布规律的边缘性科学，其研究既填补了人文地理学研究中的一项空白，又为教育科学的深化研究提供了新的独特的视角，对促进我国教育与社会发展具有直接的现实意义。

教育地理学与中国教育的地理问题探究

从教育地理学的角度看,我国教育存在与当地自然环境极不协调、不利自然环境中的教育发展水平过低、教育地理区划不合理等突出问题。"人—地"矛盾既有斗争性,又有统一性。人地和谐论反映的是其统一性,马克思主义人地关系论则强调了其斗争性。教育活动在性质上应与自然环境相协调、和谐共生,体现人地矛盾的统一性;教育发展水平应超越不利自然地理环境的制约,体现人地矛盾斗争性中人的主观能动作用。中国人文地理区划不应仅从地域角度划分,更应从自然地理被人类改造与文明化的程度进行划分。由此,中国教育地理的一级区划为城市教育、农村教育、少数民族教育。

Impact of a Pilot, Pharmacy-Led Tobacco Cessation Medication Protocol at Discharge in a Community Hospital

Purpose： To evaluate the implementation of a pharmacy-led tobacco cessation medication education protocol at discharge in a community hospital. Design： Single center, retrospective quality assessment study. Methods： A retrospective review of a pharmacy-led protocol was completed from November 2016 through April 2017. Data from one year prior to implementation of the protocol was analyzed against the study group. Results： A total of 607 tobacco cessation medication education interventions were made during the study period, 379 patients （62.4%） were given an OTC （Over The Counter） NRT （Nicotine Replacement Therapy） recommendation upon discharge and 148 （24.4%） were referred to the Ohio Tobacco Quit Line. TJC （The Joint Commission） TOB-3/3a measure was met in 44.1% of patients during the study period compared to 0% in the comparator group. Of the 75 patients who were reached via follow-up phone call, 23 （30.7%） purchased an OTC NRT and 22 （29.3%） completely quit using tobacco. Conclusions： Pharmacy-led tobacco cessation interventions during hospitalizations have a positive impact on TJC TOB-3/3a quality measure results and quit rates post-discharge. Our results encourage future studies in this area to further establish the importance of pharmacist involvement in tobacco cessation, specifically in the hospital setting.

Religious Education for Effective Ministry： Confronting Leadership Challenges in One Beloved Community

Rev. Smith has been appointed to be the pastor of First United Methodist Church （FUMC）. With the appointment, it comes a specific instruction that the church must be ＂turned around,＂ and it was Rev. Smith＇s responsibility to make it happen. FUMC has been in decline for many years under the leadership of several pastors. Rev. Smith is black and the congregation is predominately Caucasian and elderly, with longtime members who have stayed on because ＂this is their church.＂ Rev. Smith comes to the church bringing her experience, energy, and vision. This appointment is a cross-racial cross-cultural appointment, which is part of her denomination＇s mandate for the future, as it places pastors that reflect the diversity of the surrounding community in churches that do not currently look like the community around them. Currently FUMC does not interact with the community--it does ministry ＂to＂ the community but not ＂with it.＂ Therefore, from the beginning, Rev. Smith knew that her job would not be easy. She accepted the appointment believing that a ＂new wind＂ must blow through the church bringing forth spiritual revival. She now faces a crucial issue in the church, which she feels is in a make or break situation. First United Methodist is located in an urban environment. FUMC has been in this city for 133 years but has been at this site for 83 years. Originally, the neighborhood consisted of predominately white, blue-collar workers, but has since transitioned into a neighborhood community of mostly African Americans, Caribbean Blacks, and Hispanics. When the church was fwst built in this neighborhood and for many years after that, both consisted of white blue-collar workers. As the neighborhood began to change, no efforts were made to develop new programs or a more inclusive worship to include the growing diversity. The lines are drawn; Rev. Smith knows it but she is determined to turn First Church United around. As she has said before in conversations with the church, ＂God called me into ministry and the Bishop sent me here. No one is going to stop me from serving God and the church.＂ For a brief moment, she felt terribly alone, but then she remembered that she did have some support at FUMC. Rev. Smith took a deep breath, ＂I am going back to the drawing board. There is much work yet to be done, and I will not give up. But what is the next step？＂ This paper is based on a case scenario for a religious education program and as a response to Cooling of the ＂Spirits＂ by Marjorie Nunes of the Summerfield United Methodist Church Bridgeport, Connecticut. The author of this response paper analyzing the problems from the case study provides suggestions for a Religious Education ministry as a program for the church, and data on effective church growth and leadership.1
