The Application of Curriculum Ideological and Political Cases in the Teaching of Road Survey and Design

Ideological and political construction of curriculum is the key link to implement the fundamental task of moral education.Focusing on the training objectives of civil engineering professionals in the new era,combined with the teaching concepts of moral education and student-centered education,the teaching objectives for the course of road survey and design have been re-set.The implementation plan of ideological and political education has been put into practice by involving excellent engineering cases,stories of outstanding figures in this field,traffic accidents,design concepts and technological innovation to explore the methods of integrating ideological and political cases into curriculum teaching for a continuous improvement of the promotion of curriculum ideological and political education to the teaching quality of professional courses.

Application Strategy of Dynamic Management Mode in Municipal Road Survey and Design Management

With the continuous improvement of urbanization level,the construction of municipal roads has received more attention.The rational application of dynamic management mode to the survey and design management of municipal roads is conducive to improve the survey and design management level of municipal roads and further realizing the optimization of the construction effect of municipal roads.In this paper,the various factors which are affecting the management of municipal road survey and design as well the principles of municipal road design were discussed.Further,the recommendation of the application strategy of dynamic management mode in municipal road survey and design management was proposed in this paper.

Information literacy course design based on student survey: The practice of subject librarians at NSL, CAS

Purpose: This paper aims to explore best practices in academic and research libraries in providing information literacy(IL) instruction to science and engineering graduate students.Design/methodology/approach: Using the questionnaire survey method, we conducted an IL assessment study on 114 graduate students enrolling in graduate courses offered by College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Graduate University of Chinese Academy of Sciences(GUCAS).Findings: The current situation of graduate students' IL competencies and the need to develop them are revealed. An IL course was designed by subject librarians of National Science Library(NSL), Chinese Academy of Sciences(CAS), with three patterns addressing the development of graduate students' IL competencies.Research limitations: It is only about the practice of subject librarians at NSL, CAS, in designing IL courses for graduate students enrolling in graduate courses offered by College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, GUCAS.Practical implications: The results can provide a lot of useful information for the improvement of IL competencies of graduate students in science and technology disciplines.Originality/value: It is significant for assisting future subject librarians in incorporating IL skills into their course, especially for academic and research librarians to prepare and develop IL courses for science and engineering graduate students.

Designing optimal number of receiving traces based on simulation model

Currently, the selection of receiving traces in geometry design is mostly based on the horizontal layered medium hypothesis, which is unable to meet survey requirements in a complex area. This paper estimates the optimal number of receiving traces in field geometry using a numerical simulation based on a field test conducted in previous research （Zhu et al., 2011）. A mathematical model is established for total energy and average efficiency energy using fixed trace spacing and optimal receiving traces are estimated. Seismic data acquired in a complex work area are used to verify the correctness of the proposed method. Results of model data calculations and actual data processing show that results are in agreement. This indicates that the proposed method is reasonable, correct, sufficiently scientific, and can be regarded as a novel method for use in seismic geometry design in complex geological regions.

An automatical infill shot method for uniform imaging of target layer

Seismic imaging quality is critical to describing reservoirs. There are many methods that can improve imaging quality; some rely on advanced processing means, whereas others rely on changing the field acquisition methods. However, most of the acquisition methods focus on improving imaging by using infill shots without considering the target-layer illumination energy. Moreover, total infill shooting greatly increases the acquisition cost. In this paper, we present a new method for maximizing the contribution to the target shadow area illumination by automatic local infill shooting. Thus, we designed 2D and 3D models and obtained the depth migration section by forward modeling, infill shots, depth migration, etc. The model results also show that by choosing the most appropriate number of shot points, we can enhance the shadow area energy and improve the target-layer imaging quality at low cost.

THE DESIGN AND DATA PROCESSING OF THE SAMPLING SURVEY OF CHILDREN'S SITUATION IN CHINA, 1987

In July of 1987, the Sampling Survey of Children's Situation was conducted in 9 provincesautonomous regions of China. A stratified two--stage cluster sampling plan was designed for thesurvey. The paper presents the methods of stratification, selecting n=2 PSU's (cities/counties) withunequal probabilities without replacement in each stratum and selecting residents/village committeein each sampled city/county. All formulae of estimating population characteristics (especiallypopulation totals and the ratios of two totals), and estimating variances of those estimators aregiven. Finally, we analyse the precision of the survey preliminarily from the result of dataprocessing.

Developing a longline/jig sentinel survey program for an area with limited monitoring and fishing efforts

Areas,such as coastal eastern Gulf of Maine(GOM),perceived to have low density of target fish species and having high density fixed gear,are often subject to low fishing pressure and not well monitored.This can lead to a shortage of information regarding the fine scale dynamics of groundfish populations.Sentinel surveys are commonly developed for such areas with little monitoring and commercial fishing activity as a cost effective way to collect relevant data for monitoring the dynamics of fish stocks.In this study,we outline an approach that utilizes information from other survey programs and pilot study for designing a survey that satisfies both the wish of fishermen participants to contribute their knowledge and experience in determining groundfish abundance and distribution and the statistical rigor required for stock assessments.Through an analysis of spatial and density distribution of groundfish populations based on data from pilot seasons of the sentinel survey and other monitoring programs,we designed a survey that has good spatial and temporal coverage and captures the spatial variability in species composition and size structure of key species.The spatially explicit data collected in the program can contribute to a better understanding of groundfish stock status in the eastern GOM.The approach,although developed for the coastal eastern GOM,is also applicable to other areas with similar issues.

Using Cognitive Interviews to Explore the Many Different Meanings Undergraduate Students in China Attribute to the Term“College Teacher”

The cognitive interview method was applied to evaluate survey questions translated and adapted from a US-based college student survey instrument.This paper draws data from cognitive interviews with 45 undergraduate students in China and explores the different meanings they attribute to the term“college teacher.”Students understood college teacher as course instructor,academic advisor,class headteacher and counselor,student organization supervisor,and student service personnel.Students developed the understanding through a socialization process of student-teacher interaction.This paper also discusses the importance of using cognitive interviewing to improve questionnaire design,implications for research on student-teacher relationships,and suggestions on fostering student-teacher interaction in Chinese higher education institutions.
