我国研究生信息素质培养的误区分析及对策

对我国目前研究生信息素质培养的误区进行了分析,探讨了消除这一误区应采取的措施,即加强各级领导对文献检索课在研究生信息素质培养中重要性的认识,明确课程定位;提升研究生文献检索课教学改革力度,调整教学内容,改进教学和考核方式,改善教学条件;加强师资队伍建设.     

论指导研究生的有效方法

在研究生培养过程中，指导教师掌握有效的指导方法至关重要。研究生若得不到正确而有效的指导，就难以成为具有创新意识、创新思维和创新能力的高层次人才。这就要求指导教师首先要有较高的科研能力和学术水平，其次还要有先进的教育理念和指导方法。就自然科学技术领域的研究生而言，指导教师应当如何对他们进行指导是一个值得思考的问题。本文从培养创新人才的角度出发，根据研究生教育的基本特点，全面考查了我国的研究生指导工作，并从学术道德、创新能力及论文写作等多方面提出了改进办法和建议，对于解决研究生的有效指导具有一定的现实意义。

农林类高职大学生心理健康水平现状与对策

用症状自评量表(SCL-90)对杨陵职业技术学院307名高职生的心理健康状况进行测查。结果表明,农林类高职生这一群体中有明显心理问题的占12.05%;SCL-90各因子分值均高于全国正常成人常模而低于全国大学生常模;男女生样本Z检验的结果差异并不显著;独生子女心理健康状况不如非独生子女的心理健康状况。     

公费农科生的政策创新与实践检视

培养一支懂农业、爱农村、爱农民的乡村人才队伍,从人才数量、结构和质量上精准服务乡村振兴战略需求,成为涉农高校的历史责任、重要使命和重大机遇。2018年,山东省依托省内农业高等院校实施基层农技推广人才定向培养,政策期望以公费教育为切入点,破解市场配置优秀人才资源流动不畅,致力于解决乡村振兴涉农人才短板问题。文章介绍了山东农业大学等高校在深化农科生教育改革,为乡村振兴人才培养方面的有益探索和实践,以期为其他农业院校服务乡村振兴提供借鉴。     

Assessing the statistical training in animal science graduate programs in the United States: survey on statistical training

Statistical analysis of data and understanding of experimental design are critical skills needed by animal science graduate students (ASGS). These skills are even more valuable with the increased development of high-throughput technologies. The objective of this study was to evaluate the perceived statistical training of U.S. ASGS. A survey with 38 questions was shared across U.S. universities, and 416 eligible ASGS from 43 universities participated in this study. The survey included questions on the demographics and overall training, graduate education on statistics, and self-assessment on statistics and career path of ASGS. Several analyses were performed: relationship between perceived received education (PRE; i.e., how ASGS evaluated their graduate education in statistics) and perceived knowledge (PK; i.e., how ASGS evaluated their knowledge in statistics from their education); ranking of statistical topics based on PRE, PK, and confidence in performing statistical analyses (CPSA); cluster analysis of statistical topics for PRE, PK, and CPSA; and factors (demographic, overall training, interest in statistics, and field of study) associated with the overall scores (OS) for PRE, PK, and CPSA. Students had greater (P < 0.05) PRE than PK for most of the statistical topics included in this study. The moderate to high repeatability of answers within statistical topics indicates substantial correlations in ASGS answers between PRE and PK. The cluster analysis resulted in distinct groups of “Traditional” and “Nontraditional” statistical topics. ASGS showed lower (P < 0.05) scores of PRE, PK, and CPSA in “Nontraditional” compared with “Traditional” statistical methods. Several factors were associated (P < 0.05) with the OS of PRE, PK, and CSPA. In general, factors related to greater training and interest in statistics of ASGS were associated with greater OS, such as taking more credits in statistics courses, having additional training in statistics outside the classroom, knowing more than one statistics software, and more. This study provided comprehensive information on the perceived level of education, knowledge, and confidence in statistics in ASGS in the United States. Although objective measurements of their training in statistics are needed, the current study suggests that ASGS have limited statistical training on topics of major importance for the current and future trends of data-driven research in animal sciences.

思政课程消解当代大学生认知困惑之浅析——以“毛泽东思想和中国特色社会主义理论体系概论”课为例

社会转型时期的大学生容易产生若干认知困惑：对自身认知的困惑、对社会认知的困惑、对中国道路认知的困惑。这些困惑不能顺利化解,就会对大学生思想和行为带来困扰,使之产生迷惘心态。大学课程中开设的思政课可以发挥强有力的作用,为学生答疑解惑。其中,“毛泽东思想和中国特色社会主义理论体系概论”课学时较多、内容较易贴近现实,教师可善用这一课程．从多方面消解学生的认知困惑。     

大学生廉洁文化创建活动研究

大学生廉洁文化创建活动是高校加强廉政文化建设的重要内容。当前大学生廉洁文化创建活动中,廉洁文化教育长效机制有待完善,廉洁文化活动效果有待增强,廉洁校园氛围日益遭受消极因素挑战。高校应当通过创新教育形式、进行分类教育、整合教育资源和凝聚教育整体合力等方式构建大学生廉洁文化教育长效机制,注重拓展实践载体、打造廉洁文化品牌项目,创新大学生廉洁文化活动教育模式。
