This thesis explores the assumptions and attitudes concerning sexuality conveyed in the official media, and places particular emphasis on the projection of female attributes and responsibilities in sexual relationships. It analyses the different biological and social constructions of sexuality, and the means by which biologically determined sexual differences were inscribed with specific gender characteristics.

  • The Liberal Arts Curriculum in China's Christian
    THE LIBERAL ARTS CURRICULUM IN CHINA’S CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITIES AND ITS RELEVANCE TO CHINA’S UNIVERSITIES TODAY by Leping Mou A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Leadership, Higher and Adult Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto © Copyright by Leping Mou 2018 The Liberal Arts Curriculum in China’s Christian Universities and Its Relevance to China’s Universities Today Leping Mou Master of Arts Department of Leadership, Higher and Adult Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto 2018 Abstract This thesis considers the historical background, the development, and the characteristics of China’s Christian universities, with a special focus on their curriculum design. Through the lens of postmodern theory, the thesis explores the concept and essence of liberal arts education as reflected in the curriculum of the Christian universities through a qualitative methodology, focusing on the analysis of historical archival material. The purpose is to find insights for today’s trend towards reviving liberal arts education in China’s elite universities as a way of countering the influence of utilitarianism and neo-liberalism in an era of economic globalization. ii Acknowledgements The completion of this Master thesis marks the accomplishment of two years’ academic study at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE). Along with my hard work, it is made possible because of the insightful suggestions and guidance from OISE's erudite professors and the help and support from family and friends. It is also an encouragement for me to proceed to further doctoral study.

  • Popularizations of Science and Technology
    POPULARIZATION OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY What Informal and Nonformal Education Can Do? An International Conference organized by Faculty of Education, University of Hong Kong in co-operation with UNESCO, Paris September 4-9, 1989 Edited by Cheng Kai Ming Leung Kam Fong Preface This volume contains a selection of papers which were presented at a conference in September 1989 on the 'Popularization of Science and Technology: What Informal and Non-formal Education can do' which was organized by the Faculty of Education of the University of Hong Kong with the generous support and assistance of UNES- CO. The publication in 1972 of 'Learning to Be' (UNESCO) reflected a growing awa- reness of the problems and effects of illiteracy and a great deal has subsequently been achieved in reducing in the level of illiteracy. The growing importance and impact of science and technology in our everyday lives has the potential to create a new range of problems which will arise for those who are unable to understand and use modern technology. The Conference was premised on the need to address this issue and spe- cifically to examine how non-formal and informal education can contribute to helping people achieve a level of scientific and technological literacy which will allow them to function effectively. I would like to express my thanks to the Conference organisers, to UNESCO for their generous support and to the participants who made it such a worthwhile ventu- re. P.

    2019 International Conference on Management, Finance and Social Sciences Research (MFSSR 2019) Historical investigation on Sports in Gulangyu during Its International Settlement Period Wang Hui1, Zhao Yajie2 1Department of Physical Education, Xiamen University TKK College, Zhangzhou, 363105, China 2Center for Educational Technology Support, Xiamen University TKK College, Zhangzhou, 363105, China Keywords: International Settlement; Gulangyu; Sports Abstract: This paper uses the historical documents about western missionary and Young Men’s Christian Association with the field word to do the research for the sports on Gulangyu Island. Studies have shown that the introduction of Western sports into Gulangyu Island began in 1842. The main carriers were Western military, missionaries and the YMCA. During the period of public concession, the sports of Gulangyu School flourished, and the forms of extracurricular sports activities were mainly based on class and games. The curriculum is mainly composed of track and field, gymnastics and ball games; sports events are gradually emerging, and individual events are held frequently; women's sports have made a historic contribution to women's liberation in the first place in China. The spread of Western sports culture in Gulangyu during the period of public concessions promoted the development of education. 1. Introduction Gulangyu Island is an affiliated island of Xiamen, It is located at the mouth of the Jiulong River and covers an area of about 2 square kilometers. After the Opium War in 1840, the British stationed in Gulangyu and occupied the place of residence; In 1902, the “LAND REGULATIONS FOR THE SETTLEMENT OF GULANGYU, XIAMEN” was signed [1], and Gulangyu was a public concession.

    New ideas of the protection in historic buildings with the surroundings 1 2,* Zhou Jiang , Nana Wang 1 Jinling College Nanjing University, Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, P. R. China ,210089 [email protected] 2 College of Art and Design, Nanjing Tech University, Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, P. R. China ,211800 [email protected] *Corresponding author Keywords: historic buildings; protection of the surroundings; new ideas; overall protection Abstract. After the simply introduction of <Xi'an Declaration>, we made a definition of the surroundings of the historic building. Furthermore, we analyzed four reasons of the necessity of the overall protection of historic building and its surroundings; and we illustrated three new methods of the overall protection. Finally, we draw a conclusion that we must make overall protection on historic buildings and its surroundings; moreover, we need accumulate experience in the process in order to spread history wealth. Introduction As the urban construction is developing in nearly each country, how to deal with the impact city construction has made on the heritage has been an emergent and important problem. On October 21 of 2005, the 15the conference of International Council On Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS) published an important agreement named <Xi'an Declaration>. The core of this conference is to advice all countries to intensify the protection of historic buildings, cultural relics together with surroundings. The publication of this declaration is of great practice meaning because it will supply methods, suggestion, and instruction for evaluation, management and protection of the heritage environment. In other words, it became a powerful policy and law for the consistent and effective protection.
