Educational

Initiated in the seventeenth century, the growth of Scotland's glass industry was severely restrained by taxation laws and reached a low ebb in the 1820s. Recovery after the repeal of these laws enabled developments in every branch of glass making. Big demands for containers, especially from the drink trades, assisted the setting up of numerous container works particularly in Glasgow. Tied to coal rather than to sand, the industry was concentrated in Central Scotland. Since 1950 the use of oil and natural gas have enabled the establishment of works outside the traditional areas, but Glasgow, Alloa, Irvine, Kinghorn and Edinburgh (Penicuik) continue to be the main locations of the glass industry in 1980.

School Choice and Educational Stratification

Recent growth in the number of school choice programs across the country has ignited debate on the stratifying effects of these programs. In the context of interdistrict open enrollment, this paper analyzes—both theoretically and empirically—how choice programs affect stratification levels through the mechanisms of (i) the relative characteristics of program participants and nonparticipants and (ii) the schooling choices of different groups of program participants. The theoretical analysis uses Monte Carlo simulation techniques to analyze a hypothetical world where interdistrict choice is available to students in three school districts that are allowed to vary in student composition, the type of students who take advantage of the interdistrict choice program, and schooling choices of students who open enroll. The results of these simulations provide an understanding of the conditions under which an interdistrict open enrollment program leads to increases, decreases, or no changes in stratification levels. The empirical analysis uses data from the universe of students attending Colorado public schools in 2009–10 to examine how the state's interdistrict choice program affects stratification levels. It also analyzes the factors responsible for any increases or decreases in stratification and finds both participation patterns and differences in schooling decisions across groups to play important roles. The paper concludes with a discussion of its implications for research and policy.     

作为教育方法的博物馆

博物馆是具有教育职能的公共机构,在传递文化知识、促进理性启蒙和创新教育方式等方面发挥重要作用.博物馆为拓展学校教育之外的教育方法体系提供了一个新的实践领域,博物馆呈现的不仅是一种特殊形式的教育,而且它本身可以被视为教育方法.空间、物件和记忆共同构成博物馆的教育叙事,丰富了教育实践的文化经验.当前,如何将博物馆介入教育实践活动成为博物馆工作者亟待深思的问题.这种思考无疑将对博物馆的知识组织方式以及文化理念的创新提出新的要求,勾勒出博物馆教育的未来图景.当博物馆工作者将意义生成性、开放互动性和文化实践性融入博物馆教育的肌理深处时,作为教育方法的博物馆才能真正彰显其独特的教育意义并服务于社会.     

伪华北政务委员会教育总署教育行政报告书

该教育行政报告书从高等教育、普通教育、社会教育、体育及文化事项等五个方面,较为详尽地报告了华北沦陷区自1938年前伪临时政府教育部成立至1943年初之前伪华北政务委员会教育总署主管期间文化教育情况,反映了伪临时政府及华北政务委员套等傀儡政权在华北推行奴化教育的基本情况。     

晚清直隶的查学和视学制度——兼与日本比较

近代中国地方视学制度虽源于欧美、日本,但“省视学”的职权范围不仅超出了对教育的内在事项（教学内容、教学方法）进行指导、监督的一般定义,扩大到教育的外在事项（校舍、校具、学校财政）,而且有权检查各地学务管理机构的设置及人员配备、各地办学经费收支等等。特别是“省视学”兼及人事权,对于不称职的教员、学堂管理员甚至劝学所总董（县视学）,可商由提学使即行撤换。这一方面反映了此制度建立伊始,对职能、权限的界定模糊;另一方面也符合清朝试图通过地方“视学”以加强中央对地方教育控制之本来目的。
