Collective remembering of Confucianism in Chinese language textbooks

This study focuses on the collective remembering of an ancient system of meaning, examining content and changes in the construction of Confucianism in Chinese textbooks. The data consists of 84 editions of Chinese language teaching textbooks published by the People’s Education Press from 1949 to 2019. Content analysis shows that Confucianism is and was barely represented in this corpus. Thematic analysis shows that: (i) Only Confucius and Mencius were recognized as Confucian masters. (ii) Representations of Confucianism in the textbooks come from The Analects, Mencius, The Book of Rites, and The Book of Poetry, all of which are more than 2000 years old. (iii) Except for the 1970s, Confucianism was represented in a positive or at least neutral way. (iv) Confucianism is represented in a distant, abstract, decontextualized, and apolitical way, disconnected from students’ daily life. This gives insight into how a core representation stripped of its peripheral elements can lose meaning, and lose its normative influence on behavior. Contributions to collective memory, and implications for how to edit Chinese language textbooks to be more engaging are discussed.

Application of Corpus to the Exploration of Senior High School English Vocabulary Teaching Strategies——Based on the Concept of English Learning Activities

The New English Curriculum Standard for Senior High School (2017 Edition) advocates the core competence-oriented “concept of English learning activities” which is the main way to achieve the curriculum goals; The Standard also advocates using modern information technology which is one of the approaches to promote students’ English learning. As a product of modern information technology, “corpus” has been a new method to English vocabulary teaching. Taking the vocabulary lesson of Unit 4, Book1 of the new textbook of the People's Education Press (2019 Edition) as an example, the paper is based on the concept of English learning activities and uses corpus resources to resolve the problems existing in English vocabulary teaching in senior high school currently. This exploration will guide students to learn vocabulary and improve teaching efficiently.

The Evolution and Reinforcement of Lei Feng Image in Chinese Moral Education Textbooks

Against the background of the Centennial of the founding of the Chinese Communist Party, Lei Feng is a role model to follow. In Chinese moral education textbooks, Lei Feng is an indispensable moral example. Studying the image of Lei Feng in moral education textbooks helps to promote the moral development of students and strengthen the study of party history. The textual analysis on Lei Feng image in the 5 sets of primary school-oriented moral education textbooks by People’s Education Press suggests the following findings. In terms of the external form, the trends include the gradually decreasing class hours to portray Lei Feng image, the increasingly simple way of presentation, and gradually simplified descriptive words. In terms of the internal connotation, Lei Feng image has transited from the political field to the educational field, from the political attributes to the life attributes, from a screen hero to a citizen in daily life, and from the ideal and belief to the self-cultivation example with good deeds. Therefore, while keeping pace with the time, the compilation of Chinese moral education textbooks should continuously promote the inclusion of Lei Feng spirit, and adopt a graphics-text combination mode to depict Lei Feng image truly on the basis of substantial literatures, so as to strengthen Lei Feng image in the textbooks and highlight the value of Lei Feng spirit in contemporary moral education.

Evaluation of Suitability of a Listening Textbook for English Majors in Universities of China

Textbooks occurring in diverse social settings points to the need to make textbook evaluation in its social context. Many researchers have highlighted the significance of evaluating textbooks in local practices. The present study aims at exploring the suitability of a listening textbook--- A Listening Course(I) published by Shanghai Foreign Language Education Press in terms of content analysis. The analysis of the textbook finds that the general organization of the book, text types, listening tasks and activities are mostly suitable for first-grade English majors, but it still needs improvement on theme interests, authenticity, task options and assessment. Although ALC is a localized textbook, it still mirrors the macrocosm of English language teaching. The findings of this study will shed light on developing listening materials for textbook developers in order to avoid some pitfalls, and enlighten teachers on selecting suitable listening textbooks.

Environmental literacy: raising awareness through Chinese primary education textbooks

ABSTRACT This article examines environmental literacy topics in Chinese language textbooks used in elementary school education nationwide in China. Published by People’s Education Press, the textbooks serve as the core teaching material for literacy education of primary school children. Informed by language socialisation and literacy studies, this paper examines what texts and topics are included in textbooks that introduce child-readers to environmental literacy, how child readers are positioned as (ir)responsible environmental actors, and what text-types and features are used to socialise children to become environmentally conscious individuals. To understand the ideological constructs of environmental literacy, intertextuality is employed to analyse how meaning is derived by revealing the interconnectedness of text production with the broader socio-political issues. Through content analysis, the article examines particularly how text features such as texttypes, lexical choices, grammatical elements and generic structures are used in the textbooks to reflect environmental issues and develop children’s awareness. The ideological orientations serve as a framework for socialising children into environmentally conscious individuals. The article enhances our understanding of the role textbooks play in literacy education, as they not only provide materials for literacy learning and teaching, but also entail a socialisation process that shapes individuals’ environmental perception of the world.

Religious education and the new cosmology

James Michael Lee (in Forging a better religious education in the third millennium, Religious Education Press, Birmingham, AL, 2000, p. 3) suggests that “religious education visions a broad sweeping future and then makes that future happen earlier than it would have happened if religious education were not there.” Religious Education thus has a prophetic role to play in society. The current generation is between stories—the religious and the scientific. How might religious education be developed in the Catholic school to reflect the growing convergence in theological discourse of the Christian Story with the New Universe Story? How might it energise young students with images that empower them to develop a prophetic stance towards their future and the future of humanity? We first consider the need for a paradigm shift in the way we tell the Christian Story. Then, taking our lead from the theology of Karl Rahner which allows us to take a cosmic view of Christian religious experience, and from various writers who apply such a view to different areas of Christian life, we attempt a synthesis of current theological thought. Lastly, we suggest how this shift might be applied to the religious education curriculum in order to provide an answer to the questions posed above.

Effect of Echinacea pallida supplementation on the amino acid and fatty acid composition of Pharaoh Quail meat

The purpose of the research was to investigate the effect of Echinacea pallida extract effect on the amino acid and fatty acid content of Pharaoh Quail meat. We proved that the amount of essential amino acids was greater by 1.31% in the pectoral muscles of Quails that consumed 12 mg/kg of Ehinacea pallida dry extract. This increase was caused by the better accumulation of lysine, arginine, threonine, leucine, and phenylalanine. The amount of essential amino acids was the highest in the thigh muscles of the control group. We found that the quality of fatty acid composition of the pectoral muscles was better due to the greater accumulation of linoleic, γ-linolenic, and α-linolenic acids. The accumulation rate of linoleic, γ-linolenic, and arachidonic fatty acids was higher in thigh muscles of the experimental Quail.

Visible-light-promoted Dearomatization of Benzene and Derivatives

Benzene rings are widely found in petrochemicals, which are cheap and readily available. Compared with other (hetero)aromatic rings, the dearomatization of benzene rings is more challenging as benzene is more stable. On the other hand, visible-light photocatalysis has experienced rapid development since last decade. Upon visible-light irradiation, highly active intermediates are formed to break aromatic stability and to construct three-dimensional molecules from flat compounds. In this review, recent examples on visible-light-promoted dearomatization of benzene and derivatives are summarized, which can be divided into two main categories: ground-state chemistry and excited-state chemistry. The perspective for future development of this field is also discussed. © 2020, Higher Education Press. All right reserved.

ЖИЗНЕННЫЕ ТРАЕКТОРИИ НАРКОЗАВИСИМЫХ: БОЛЕЗНЬ, РЕЛИГИОЗНОСТЬ И МЕТАМОРФОЗЫ СОЦИАЛЬНОСТИ

The article, based on the author’s field materials conducted among drug-addicted patients of rehabilitation centers, examines their biographical “medical histories”, an important aspect of which is the experience of accepting a new reality, their own chronic disease. In a simple way, drug addiction can be seen as one of the variants of one’s disturbed adaptation to their familiar or a wider social environment, leading to incorrect life strategies. And if drug addiction is considered as a complex disease within the framework of the biopsychosocial model, then the treatment can consist of different practices including psychological, religious and adaptation-socialization components. The religiosity of the participants is studied based on a conceptual framework, formed by studies conducted in the USA of the phenomenon of religious conversion in the midst of new religious movements. The article analyzes the role of religiosity in the emergence and maintenance of a patient’s interest in treatment and in the development of a new social reality. The author also examines the attitude of drug addicts to modern therapeutic practices that use the religious factor directly, and studies their life trajectories. References Bogdanovskaia, I.M. 2002.
