Full textWith more than half of the world's population living in urban areas, it is important that the relationships between the urban environment and climate are better understood. The current research aims to continue the effort in assessing and understanding the urban environment through the use of a global climate model (GCM). Given the relative newness of the presence of an urban land type and model in a GCM, there are many more facets of the urban-climate relationship to be investigated. By comparing thirty-year ensembles of CAM4 coupled with CLM4 both with (U) and without (Un) the inclusion of the urban land type, the sensitivity of the atmospheric model to urban land cover is assessed. As expected, largest differences tend to be in the Northern Hemisphere due to the location of most of the globe's densest and expansive cities. Significant differences in the basic climate variables of temperature and precipitation are present at annual, seasonal, and monthly scales in some regions. Seasonality to the urban influence also exists with the transition months of Spring and Fall having the largest difference in temperatures. Of the eleven regions defined by Oleson (2012), three were most impacted by the presence of urban land cover in the model—Europe, Central Asia, and East Asia.
Since urban attributes can vary greatly within one world continent, the sensitivity of regional climates to the urban type parameters is also explored. By setting all urban land cover to only one urban density type, the importance of city composition on climate, even within the same city, is highlighted. While preserving the distinct urban regional characteristics and the geographical distribution of urbanized areas, the model is run with homogeneous urban types: high density and tall building district. As with the default urban and excluded urban runs, a strong seasonality to the differences between the solo-high-density simulation and default urban (UHD – U) and solo-tall-building-district-density simulation and default urban (UTBD – U) exists. Overall, the transition and winter months are most sensitive to changes in urban density type.

Full textThis research aims the analysis of the senses and expectations that the young people, from the first group of IFPR - Barracão Advanced Campus, attribute to the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology (IF) and to the Integrated Technical High School (EMTI). Through the eyes of young people, we seek to analyze the role of EMTI for them, as well as the meanings they attribute to the IF and the Geography classes. Considering that, as a result of the expansion and internalization of the Federal Network of Professional, Scientific and Technological Education (RFEPCT), a new school reality is created in the most remote spaces, it becomes necessary to understand the role of the IF and the Geography classes. In other words, this research is based on the assumption that the IF makes a new school practice possible and, for that, the role of Geography classes should be rethought. To enable the study, this research presents a qualitative approach based on the premises of the complexity paradigm. The methodological path covered includes a bibliographical review, document analysis and field research. Through the bibliographical and documentary research, it was possible to understand how the RFEPCT expansion occurred. Then, focal group analysis was applied and the writing process was done. On the writting process, we used the technique of discursive textual analysis. Twelve young people from the first group of the EMTI of the IF participated in the study. The proposal of the work aimed to give voice to the young people who live and study in the border, as well as to understand their senses and expectations regarding IF, EMTI and Geography classes. The research revealed that the IF is a top-philist builder and that attending the EMTI has exceeded the expectations of young people. Across the campus young people pass on and conceive of education as a possibility of social ascension. It is equally important to show that there is a sense of belonging with the border area and its elements. There is a very strong relationship of Geography classes with their daily lives. Therefore, it is revealed that the FI makes a new school reality possible and, therefore, it becomes important to rethink our conceptions about RFEPCT and the teaching of Geography.

Full textThis thesis aims to analyze the contributions of the Journal of the Institute of History and Geography of São Paulo (RIHGSP) for history of Brazilian education through an analysis of articles published in this journal between 1895 and 2004. The motivation for the study came from the fact that despite the importance of Geographical and Historical Institutes for national historiography, which can be proven by numerous academic studies conducted, there is a gap in the historiography of Brazilian education regarding the use of these journals institutes as primary sources for the history of education. Therefore, this thesis aims to answer the following research question: what are the contributions of RIHGSP for the History of Education in Brazil? The justification for this research is grounded in the understanding that the study of scientific production in the pages of this magazine is relevant to the reconstruction of their own national historiography and to demonstrate the role that information sources play in dissemination of information and the development of the research scientific education. Thus , the main objective of the research was to highlight the contributions of RIHGSP to the historiography of Brazilian education , and the specific objectives were : a) outline a historical overview of Geographical and Historical Institutes in national and world stage standing in this context the History Institute and Geography of São Paulo , b ) describe the main features of the Journal of the Historical and Geographical Institute of São Paulo ( RIHGSP) c ) analyze this scientific production according to bibliometric parameters of authorship, thematic and temporal distribution; d) conduct a content analysis of a selected sample of 20 articles RIHGSP related to the theme of the history of education. From the methodological point of view the research was characterized as an exploratory and descriptive study. The analytical approaches were supported in the bibliometric analysis and content analysis and involved the following steps: literature review, collection, organization and systematization of data and analysis and interpretation of results. Thus, it was possible to obtain scientific evidence to demonstrate that the texts published in RIHGSP, are key to the history and historiography of Brazilian education, because they allow understanding how the literate elite - represented by intellectuals who publish articles in this journal - thought education Brazilian.
Esta tese analisa as contribuições da Revista do Instituto Histórico e Geográfico de São Paulo (Revista IHGSP) para História da Educação brasileira por meio da análise de artigos publicados neste periódico entre 1895 e 2004. A motivação para o estudo veio da constatação de que a despeito da importância dos Institutos Históricos e Geográficos para a historiografia nacional, o que pode ser comprovado pelos inúmeros estudos acadêmicos realizados, há uma lacuna na historiografia educacional brasileira no que tange a utilização dos periódicos desses Institutos como fontes primárias para a História da Educação. Diante disso, essa tese buscou responder a seguinte questão de pesquisa: quais são as contribuições da RIHGSP para a História da Educação no Brasil? A justificativa para essa pesquisa está assentada no entendimento de que o estudo da produção científica nas páginas dessa Revista é relevante para a reconstrução da própria historiografia nacional e para demonstrar o papel que as fontes de informação assumem na disseminação das informações e no desenvolvimento da própria pesquisa científica em Educação. Assim, o objetivo principal da pesquisa foi o de destacar as contribuições da RIHGSP para a historiografia da educação brasileira, e os objetivos específicos foram: a) delinear um panorama histórico dos Institutos Históricos e Geográficos no cenário mundial e nacional situando nesse contexto o Instituto Histórico e Geográfico de São Paulo; b) descrever as principais características da Revista do Instituto Histórico e Geográfico de São Paulo (RIHGSP); c) analisar essa produção científica de acordo com os seguintes parâmetros bibliométricos: autoria, temática e distribuição temporal; d) realizar a análise de conteúdo de uma amostra selecionada de 20 artigos da RIHGSP relacionados à temática da história da educação. Do ponto de vista metodológico a pesquisa caracterizou-se como um estudo exploratório e caráter descritivo e analítico apoiado nas abordagens da análise bibliométrica e de conteúdo e envolveu o desenvolvimento das seguintes etapas: revisão de literatura; coleta, organização e sistematização dos dados e análise e interpretação dos resultados. Dessa forma, conseguiu-se obter evidências científicas para demonstrar que os textos, publicados na RIHGSP, são fundamentais para a história e historiografia da educação brasileira, pois permitem compreender como a elite letrada representada pelos intelectuais que publicam artigos neste periódico pensava a educação brasileira.

Summary Traditionally college education is considered one part of the higher education. However, with the acceleration of junior colleges transforming to technological institute and university of science and technology, along with our country’s entrance into the World Trade Organization (WTO), it is unavoidable that our government will allow foreign universities to set up branch schools in Taiwan. Private universities and colleges in turn face more and more problems in recruiting new students. In addition, the subsidies from the government to the private schools are decreasing year by year and are far from being enough to meet the demands of every school. Furthermore, the government revenue is shrinking because of the economic depression. Therefore, how private schools could utilize the limited resources to make it through the difficult situation is an issue worth to be explored. Two major subjects in management decision are achievement evaluation and cost control, and responsibility center system is widely used in business organization for achievement evaluation and cost control at present. What is called the system of responsibility center is when an organization divide itself into different responsibility centers in order to evaluate achievement and control cost. Each responsibility center makes it own budget, accumulates its real income and cost, and analyze and compare its difference in income and cost, so that the organization could use the references to evaluate achievement, control cost and make various decisions. Activity-Based Costing System has been widely used and developed abroad. Many researchers in our country have done research to calculate the cost of goods with ABC in many different fields in recent years. The research objects include profit undertakings and non-for-profit undertakings. The traditional method of calculating the cost with working activities has been replaced by the concept of calculating the cost of goods with Activity-Based Costing System. Under the circumstances that it is becoming more and more difficult for the operating of private schools, the correct study of student unit costs, proper achievement evaluation, and appropriate cost control are urgently in need. As a result, the theme of this research is on the establishment of the system of responsibility center in private universities and colleges, discussing the related literature and regulations, analyzing case studies, and calculating the student unit costs, thus serves as reference to the decision making of education administrators. The purpose of this study is as follows: 一、 construct the model of calculating the income or cost of every responsibility center with Activity-Based Costing System and describe the content and structure of the responsibility center system. 二、 Second, employ the Activity-Based Costing System model developed by this research to calculate the income or cost of every responsibility center and acquire the student cost of each teaching center, and then serve as the reference to the decision making of education administrators. According to the result of this research, the following conclusions could be made: 一、 The current problems in dealing with accounting information: If the materials in the accounting journal ledger system can not be utilized directly and need additional software written by information engineers, the materials would lack instantaneity; the expenses are not sorted in accordance with the departments which used them directly, thus lowering the validity of achievement evaluation; the administrative units are responsible for the planning, control and execution of the business, but do not computerize the relevant records of the acquired resources, which in turn makes it impossible to separate the responsibility of sharing the cost and affects the accuracy in calculating the cost. 二、 the results of analyzing the case financial materials (1) Tuition, incidental expenses and subsidies are the major the sources of revenue. However, with the limit on the number of classes schools are allowed to enroll students and on the floor square measure, there is little room to raise the revenue of tuition and incidental expenses. (2) Standard for collecting the tuition and incidental expenses is one of the main reason that affects the income of each responsibility center. (3) Because personnel expenses are the major expenditure in private schools, the amount of personnel expenses would be bigger along with the growing number of personnel in administrative centers. (4) The unit cost of students in departments in the environment designing group is relatively higher than that of students in other departments. (5) The profits of centers in the commerce management group are higher than that of centers in the environment designing group. (6) the newly-set and small-scale departments produced the effects of large-scale economy.

Textbooks are the major teaching resource as well as the important media for delivering knowledge in school. They have a profound effect on education. The design and form of textbooks change along with the succession of ideological trends and the development of instructional technology. Many geographic concepts involve long-term dynamic process of time-space convergence, which are difficult to be understood by students. When students don’t understand the concepts in the textbook, it would better to support their reading with multimedia learning tools such as legends, animations or videos. This study aims to develop an electronic textbook on iPad based on the design principles derived from the cognitive theory for multimedia learning and the cognitive load theory. The learning content of the terrain unit in the senior high school geography has been implemented in the electronic textbook as an example. There are five research questions: 1. What are the principles for the design of an electronic textbook? 2. How to build an electronic textbook? 3. Which group is better on reading comprehension? the experimental group with electronic textbook or the control group with paper textbook? 4. Is there significant difference on reading comprehension between the high-ability group and the low-ability group regarding the use of electronic textbooks? 5. What are the students’ attitudes, satisfaction and improvements toward the electronic textbook? The learning experiment lasts for five weeks. There are 62 subjects including 30 boys and 32 girls who are first graders of a senior high school and selected by researcher based on purposive sampling. They are randomly assigned to the experimental group (32 subjects with electronic textbook) and the control group (30 subjects with paper textbook). Wilcoxon signed ranks test and paired-samples t test were used to analyze the learning outcomes before and after the learning experiment. The same methods are also used to analyze the learning outcomes of the high-ability group and the low-ability group before and after the learning experiment. Besides, Mann-Whitney test and independent-samples t test were applied to analyze the learning achievements between the experimental group and the control group in the post-test. The results showed both subjects of experimental group and control group made significant progress between pre-test and post-test at terrain forces, rivers and coastal units. But in the karst, aeolian, glacial unit, the experimental group made significant progress between the pre-test and post-test, but the control group didn’t. In addition, in the post-test the learning achievement of experimental group is significantly better than the control group among terrain forces unit, rivers and coastal unit and karst, aeolian, glacial unit. In the terrain forces, rivers and coastal units, both the high-ability group and the low-ability group made significant progress, either experimental group or control group. In the karst, aeolian and glacial unit, the high-ability group didn’t make significant progress, but the low-ability group did. In the control group, both high-ability group and the low-ability group didn’t make significant progress. It showed that the electronic textbook is more supportive to the advanced unit and to those students of lower ability. Most subjects enjoy the use of electronic textbook, and they think the electronic textbook is effective and easy to use. They would recommend it to other people.

This research focuses on whether entry level supervisors in the high-tech industry have the same level of satisfaction regarding the work performance of university and polytechnic graduates, and whether the level of satisfaction is related to population statistical variables. Using balance scorecard as an evaluation tool, this research attempts evaluate the work performance of university and polytechnic graduates from both younger and older generations using the 4 aspects of balance scorecard, and investigate entry level supervisors’ level of satisfaction regarding the work performance of younger and older generation employees graduating from these two systems. The results will be used in high-tech industry human resources management, and will also serve as a reference for people who are already working or are prepared to enter the workplace, in order to improve their personal capabilities. The research results indicated that the work performance of polytechnic graduates is lower than that of university graduates in the areas of finance and customer relations; the communication and negotiation skills and service attitudes of polytechnic graduates require particular attention. Familiarity in operational procedure and technical development needs to be reinforced in university graduates . There are no significant differences in work performance in the areas of internal procedures and learning to grow. At the same time, employees’ evaluation results differ according to differences in supervisors’ academic background and seniority. Usually supervisors with higher academic achievement will be less satisfied about employees’ work performance.

The study aims to explore the influence of applying the Interactive electronic Whiteboard (IWB) on junior high students’ learning effects in the teaching of geography. The study objects were students from four classes of the first grade in a junior high school in Changhua County. Quasi-experimental research was carried out and two classes were divided randomly into the experimental group; by using an LCD Projector, IWB teaching was implemented. Two classes were randomly divided into the control group; by using LCD Projector screen teaching was carried out. The fourth curriculum of “Weather and Climate” in the first semester of the first grade was taken as the teaching content. A pre-test was given a week before the beginning of the teaching experiment in order to understand students’ entering behavior; in the process of proceeding with the experiment, two class tests were implemented in order to understand students immediate learning effects; a post-test was carried out a week after the termination of the teaching experiment in order to understand the influence of various teaching methods on students learning. Questionnaires on the use of IWB teaching of students in the experimental group were filled-in to understand their learning feelings as well as their thoughts related to the IWB. The study results showed that there were significant learning effects for students taught with the aid of the IWB. The achievement was much better than using a teaching screen. There was no significant variance in learning effects for students with different genders after using the IWB in teaching. Positive assistance in learning effects was provided to students whose levels were in the middle range or low range, by using the IWB in teaching. Furthermore, based on the results of the test content analysis, students could have a better reading capability in studying the graphs of “Weather and Climate” in geography by using the IWB in teaching. Students from the experimental group gave a positive affirmation to the use of the IWB in teaching. The interaction among students, teachers and peers was significant. Learning became active, and also aroused an interest in them to study geography. As a result, the use of an IWB is clearly very helpful in both teaching and learning.

The study was to develop a computerized adaptive diagnostic testing and computerized adaptive remedial instruction system based on the probabilistic reasoning of Bayesian Network and ordering theory(OT) into Weather And Climate In Taiwan in first-grade geography course to induce the error types, sub-skills and unit target and to validate the effect of the system. The results of this study are as follow. First, Bayesian Network was employed to diagnose accuracy of the error types, sub-skills and unit target in Weather And Climate In Taiwan. The results had the 97.23% correspondence to the expert judgment, which show excellent diagnostic effects. Second, the computerized adaptive diagnostic testing system could save 30% of test items. The reaction of the test answers could be predicted and the accuracy achieved 95%, which showed the predictive ability of this system was similar to the complete test. The accuracy rate of prediction on the error types, sub-skills and unit purposes was over 95%, showing that the computerized adaptive diagnostic testing highly corresponded to the diagnosis in error types, sub-skills and unit target of the complete test. Apparently, the effect of the system was quite satisfying. Third, with the design, almost 95% of the students progressed in studies. The error types were decreased and the sub-skills were increased. All students’ average achievements on pre-tests and the post-tests had significant differences. The significant differences were also shown among the high-score, medium-score and low-score groups in the computerized adaptive diagnostic testing. The testers could receive the proper adaptive remedial instruction in time and enhance their learning.

Therefore the contest obtains 250 surpass creative works, and there have over 10 popular units form these creative works. After accumulating these creative works from different units, people would ask themselves questions from the same teaching unit what is their main gold toward education? How do these participants reveal their creativity? Does teachers’ creative design can initiated students’ motivation to study or help students cultivate their creation? This research paper is based on compare the creative works in the same teaching unit (Pythagorean Theorem) and the valuable sources are from “The Math Creative Pedagogic Contest”. Try to analyze each participant’s main points and the difference from the same unit; as well as, analyze how these participants reveal their creativity. From the analysis and organization of this research paper hope that can improve teachers’ teach skills and give suggestion to their creative works. This proposal provides teachers other sources when they are preparing their teaching materials. Hopefully, it can combine all the advantages of these creative works and make another creative teaching material.

The study aims to discuss the influence of applying e-textbooks in teaching geography at junior high schools on students’ learning outcomes. The quasi-experimental method was adopted in the study; second-year students from the Junior High Department of a comprehensive high school in Miaoli County were recruited as the research participants. Two random classes were assigned as the experimental group and another two were selected as the control group; the former used e-textbooks as the teaching material while the latter adopted traditional lecturing as the teaching method. The content chosen for teaching was “Unit One: Southern Regions of China,” from the second-year, second-semester textbook. The researcher used the participants’ pre-test and post-test evaluation scores to assess whether there was any significant difference in learning achievements between those who were taught by the e-textbook teaching method and those by the traditional lecturing method. Survey of Students’ Comments on the Application of E-textbook in Teaching was used to explore whether such a teaching method had positive influences on students’ learning attitudes. The study suggests the following findings. In the aspect of learning achievements, those students who were taught by the e-textbook teaching method showed higher learning achievements than those who were taught by the traditional lecturing teaching method; no significant difference was found between genders. In the aspect of ability levels, the e-textbook teaching method was shown to have positive influences on mid-level students only. Furthermore, the students who were taught by the e-textbook teaching method had higher learning achievements in chart-based test items than their counterparts; no significant difference was found between genders, in this regard. As for learning attitudes, the students showed positive learning perceptions and acknowledgements toward the implementation of e-textbooks in teaching; however, factors including gender, the possession of a personal computer, and frequencies of computer use caused no significant difference regarding one’s learning perception of the use of e-textbooks in teaching.

The aim of this study was to research on the students’ learning effects of interdisciplinary-teaching and traditional disciplinary-teaching, applied as the instruction methods for social course of nine-year integrated curriculum at junior high school level. It also investigated the teachers’ teaching current conditions in two schools and the students’ learning difficulty to the weather unit. The objects of the study included not only the 7th grade and the 8th grade students of the 92th academic year in two different junior high schools in Kaohsiung, but also the teachers who allow to teach that grade geography unit of the social section. Take the students as the center of the study. In order to match a section representative, Municipal Chung Shan Junior High School represents interdisciplinary-teaching, and Municipal Hsiao Kang Junior High represents disciplinary-teaching. The methods of the study included a well-designed questionnaire and practical interviews. “Investigation Form about the opinions of the geography teachers in the social section to the curriculum content and the teaching current conditions” and “Measure Form about the contents of exams, the learning methods and attitude on the weather unit in grade 7 and 8” were adopted in the study as the instruments. After recycling the questionnaire, the collected data were analyzed quantitatively. According the scores, divide the students into three groups --- high, middle, and low , and then carry on the sampling interview to distinguish and to have the further understanding on the difference of the students’ learning results and the current learning conditions , and the difficulty of learning the weather unit between the two different teaching ways. The summary of the study result as follow: 一、 The content of the exam to the students (一) The grades of the students who accepted disciplinary-teaching are higher than the grades of those who accepted interdisciplinary-teaching. The result is coincident with the one on Chia-Chuu Li’s. (二) Under interdisciplinary-teaching, geography teachers’ class grades are higher than non-geography teachers’. In the 8th grade classes, the class taught by those who are both social studies teachers and their homeroom teachers have higher grades than those by social studies teachers only. 二、 The results of measure form to the students and the interviews: (一) Under interdisciplinary-teaching, teachers have more time to have interaction with students, so the personal style of the teacher’s lively teaching has pretty large attraction for students. (二) Because the contents in Chinese geography of the 8th grade are more trivial and more strange, teachers’ professional is over the importance of lively teaching. So almost the grade 8 students who accepted interdisciplinary-teaching hoped to change the way of disciplinary-teaching. As to the students accepted disciplinary-teaching, teachers’ professional teaching is the main reason to attract students to like having geography classes, but most students responsed that the trouble in bad absorption is due to that teachers’ teaching speed is too fast. (三) After the interviews, the researcher found that the reasons which affect the effect of the students’ learning include “teachers’ professional”, “teachers’ teaching style”, and “whether to be taught by their homeroom teachers.” (四) After the interviews, the most difficult parts of learning geography unit(not the climate unit)and the ideas about the climate which students responsed is evidently different from teachers’ cognition. And collect the students’ difficulty in learning the climate unit. 三、The current condition of the teachers’ teaching: (一) Most of the social section teachers who teach geography think that the most important parts of the unit arrangement and the textbook context in the new studies materials are worse than those in the authorized edition. To collect weight-bearing points in the textbook and to accelerate the achieved percentage of scheduled progress, over half the teachers write handouts themselves. (二)On the choice of the textbook, because of the limit of the connection problems in chapters, most choose the former edition. (三)When the teachers of interdisciplinary-teaching teach the climate in China in the 8th grade, the rate of the difficulty they face is higher than those of disciplinary-teaching. (四)At both of the schools , the teachers think that the most difficult teaching unit is “The Climate”, and their opinions about what is the most difficult in teaching the ideas of the climate are also very close. But their opinions about the factors in affecting students’ learning interests are a little different. At last, it is hoped that the suggestions provided in the study could inspire educational administrative organizations, schools, teachers, and other researchers.
