德国环境绩效评估成果对中国环境保护的启示

文章通过研究和学习德国在环境保护方面的基本做法和成功经验,进而给予我们在环境保护方面诸多启示,包括加强环保教育,进一步增强环境保护意识;在引导和鼓励中国环境非政府组织方面,可以给予非政府组织宽松的生存空间;赋予非政府组织广泛的环境权利;强化非政府组织的外部监督;广开财路,多渠道筹措环保资金,融资渠道有通过债券市场,股票环保,基金,环保彩票,引进外资,金融机构贷款,排污权交易方式融资;加强中国企业的环境管理和认证;完善中国的环境政策等。     

大学生减灾教育对策研究

灾害风险认知能力是进行减灾教育的基础,受众获取灾害知识与信息的方式是影响减灾教育方法的重要因素,而受众获取灾害知识与信息的途径则会直接影响灾害内容的传递效率和效果。本文针对以上所关心的问题,为了建立合理有效的大学生减灾教育计划,应对大学生防灾减灾意识和能力不足的现状,通过问卷调查,分析和研究了来自不同生源地大学生的灾害风险认知水平、获取灾害知识和信息的方式与途径。从自然灾害风险认知的视角,通过寻找不同特性大学生群体获取减灾知识与信息的差异和趋同性,提出了现势条件下针对大学生的减灾教育对策。     

上海废电池回收实证分析及相关宣传教育对策探讨

回顾了上海市废电池回收过程;通过对2个试点项目实施效果的分析,指出了目前废电池回收存在的误区及原因。在相关宣传教育方面,指出针对废电池回收的宣传教育并未随政策改变而作相应调整,宣传教育形式比较单一,内容相对陈旧,效果不理想。提出了提高公众认识、调整宣教内容、在环境宣传教育中增强专业性和创新性等建议。     

瑞典环保成就对中国环保的借鉴意义

文章通过了解瑞典环境保护工作的成就并分析其原因,探索如何借鉴其先进经验改善中国的环境问题。对瑞典人群的环保意识进行随机问卷调查,分析总结瑞典得以如此成功的在发展经济的同时保证环境不受到污染的主要原因,最后探讨中国如何借鉴瑞典环保经验的举措。采用随机问卷调查,对象是瑞典博朗厄市及其首都斯德哥尔摩火车、学校、书店的人群。结果显示瑞典公民有良好的环保意识,而良好的环保意识来源于政府和媒体宣传、学校和家庭教育的影响。瑞典公民认为在实现可持续发展的过程中起重要作用的因素有政府政策、环保技术的研发和公众的环保意识。这说明瑞典政府在环保法规、教育的投入和公民、企业的配合是瑞典环保成功的主要原因。鉴于此,中国应该注重教育与宣传,建立分工明确职能完善的管理机制,采取灵活有效的办法引导个人和企业。     

可持续发展的教育评价体系的构建

可持续发展教育评价是可持续发展教育的重要组成部分,是推动可持续发展教育规范化的保证。中国关于学生的可持续发展教育评价机制并不太完善,本文通过确定评价指标的科学依据和设置基本原则,构建对学生的可持续发展教育的评价体系,包括环境指标、社会指标和学分指标三类指标,并对此评价体系进行综合评判。     

大连市海岛环境意识调查与环境教育对策研究

对大连市长兴岛、大长山岛部分学生进行海岛生态安全环境意识问卷调查,通过定性与定量分析(主成分分析),了解当前海岛生态环境现状及居民环境意识、环境行为和环境意愿,为海岛可持续发展与学校环境教育研究提供重要的理论基础。希望这次问卷调查能为将来环境教育的实施提供一定的理论依据,同时也影响、改善学生的环境行为,促进环境行为和环境意识的协调发展,为提高学生的环境素养和探寻合理的环境教育模式提出建议。

Designing for interaction in research environments: A case study

Graduate researchers are an essential part of higher education (HE) in terms of its contribution to knowledge and the wider economy, but how the work environment influences behaviour and productivity in this work domain is poorly understood. Nevertheless, building programmes continue with a detectable trend towards more open office designs. Beyond issues of cost-efficiency, this reflects a popular belief in the significance of face-to-face interaction to research productivity. Using a combination of subjective and quantitative methods, this case study investigates the validity of this claim and how a redesigned environment impacts upon work practices and collaboration within a community of researchers. Although the new environment was judged favourably by occupants and managers, analysis suggests a less positive behavioural response. Contrary to expectation, we conclude that providing open plan environments is not sufficient to produce more collaborative practices in HE. We argue that this would require changes in the organisational structure, the reward structure for individual and team-driven tasks, and the firm policing of the management of change.     

Reducing visitors' group size increases the number of birds during educational activities: Implications for management of nature-based recreation

Organized tours to watch wildlife are popular recreational and educational activities, in which the visitor expectative (to observe as many and as diverse animals as possible) runs parallel to conservation purposes. However, the presence of visitors may cause negative impacts on wildlife, which makes recreation difficult to manage. Thus, restricting visitor's load to minimize impacts on fauna may be advisable, but too much restriction may end up disappointing the public. We analysed how visitors' group size influences the number and variety of birds observed during an educational activity directed to scholars, in a forested area where public access is otherwise restricted. We observed fewer birds, but not fewer species, as the size of scholars' groups increased. Such effect was apparently mediated by a few species demonstrating reduced tolerance to increased group size. Our results support the idea that reducing the size of visitors' groups not only helps to minimize the negative impacts on wildlife derived from leisure activities, but also allows visitors to watch more wildlife. Therefore, organizing visitors in small numbers is recommended in the design of activities directed to groups of people visiting natural areas.
