祝刚 等：Examining Chinese and Spanish preservice teachers’ practicum teaching experiences: a transformative learning perspective
This paper examines how Chinese (n = 11) and Spanish (n = 11) preservice teachers reflect on their learning-to-teach experiences during the teaching practicum period through the lenses of transformative learning theory and third space conceptualisation. Specifically, the authors adopted the five-stage transformative learning model and collected reflective journals from the participants. Framed by this model, the authors traced the Chinese and Spanish preservice teachers’ transformative professional learning experiences evidenced by (1) disorienting dilemma, (2) reflection and exploration of assumptions, (3) gaining confidence in a new role, (4) behaviour changes, and (5) integration of new perspectives. Implications for fostering a third space, namely hybridity and boundary-crossing between university and schools, during teaching practicum are discussed in this paper.

钟启泉：对话型教学的创造
“对话”是沟通人心的桥梁,没有对话就没有沟通,没有沟通也就没有教育。知识社会中的教师必须深刻认识”对话”的意涵与”对话教学”的价值,针对儿童实际展开有效的对话教学实践,借以培育每一个儿童的”对话力”。对话型教学的前提是对话与沟通,践行对话型教学的过程同时也是促进每一个教师成长的过程。
金晨：国际视野下一流大学弹性退休制度的核心要素
——基于五所英美高校的分析
弹性退休是国际上多数高校应对教师队伍老龄化的主要措施,但由于社会背景、大学传统和学校具体情况的不同,大学形成了多样化的退休制度设计和富有启发的实践方式。基于麻省理工学院、斯坦福大学、哈佛大学、牛津大学、剑桥大学五所世界一流高校的退休制度文本,分析弹性退休的实施状况,研究发现,英美一流大学的弹性退休制度包含四点共同的核心要素:灵活的退休年龄、渐进化的退休方式、能力导向的年长教师续任标准以及益老的教师续任工作环境。在具体的弹性退休措施上,五所高校有所差异。
