Construction of Credibility Model for Evaluating the Effectiveness of Ecological Civilization Education

The concept of green development as a rational grasp of the relationship between man and nature is not only an important embodiment of the line of thought of seeking truth from facts and advancing with the times but also a concrete application of Marxist materialistic dialectics combined with the current situation of China’s development. Ecological consciousness is a value orientation that reflects the harmonious development of man and nature as a worldview and methodology to explore and reflect on the ecological and environmental problems of the current society. College students are an important force in promoting China’s development in the future, and cultivating their good ecological consciousness with the concept of green development as a guide for action is of great significance at both the theoretical level and the practical level. Based on the review of online reviews, this study proposes that the content of positive reviews can be classified into praiseworthy reviews. In order to verify the objectivity of the content dimensions of the three types of positive comments, this study selected 1,800 positive comments as the research sample using stratified random sampling and conducted a content analysis of the comment samples one by one using the NET method. The content analysis results showed that praiseworthy comments appeared in almost all of the samples, constructive comments appeared in 23% of the samples, and prosocial comments appeared in only 14% of the sample. The results of the content analysis show that it is necessary to identify the dimensions of positive online comments because the single-dimensional constructs cannot effectively present the multidimensional information content contained in positive comments. By studying the geometric modeling method in soft tissue modeling technology, we propose covering the surface model on the outer surface of the physical model and using the tetrahedral mesh as the support skeleton of the physical model. Through the purification of the initial items and secondary testing, a scale with good reliability and validity for measuring the three constructs of praiseworthy, constructive, and prosocial comments was finally obtained.

«Язык» тела: тело в трансляции сенсорной информации в традиционном мировоззрении тюрко-монгольских народов

The article aims to study the information context of the body signs and the perception of this information by Inner Asian nomads in terms of man and nature interaction. Methods. The research is based on general scientific methods and particular methods of historical science, such as the historical-comparative research method and the method of cultural-historical reconstruction. Materials. In terms of studies of humans as social and biological beings, it is relevant to examine the human body in the system of traditional somatic representations of the Turkic-Mongolian peoples of Inner Asia. In their worldview, the human body represents a specialized “map” of messages of a physiological nature, where organs and body parts were seen as symmetrical and their messages were perceived as negative or positive, depending on location on the left or on the right. Of relevance was also whether the sign came from the upper or lower part of a particular organ. Special attention was paid to the “movements” of the liver and the heart. Conclusions. The study shows that the world that surrounds a person appeared as a complex multidimensional information space, with sensory information playing an important part in its perception. This information was not limited to images created by the senses. In fact, the entire body, including internal organs, was perceived as such a conductor, with various manifestations of a physiological nature, such as trembling, noises, itching, and pains serving as “messages”. Individuals that had special body sensitivity were described as those of “open flesh” or of “light bones”; these were usually the only child in the family or one of the twins.

Contributions of the History and Philosophy of Science and Methodology of Problematization to the Public Health Policies teaching and their connection with the Environment

This paper aims to report and analyze a pedagogical practice developed for Public Health Policies teaching in a course held at the Federal University of Lavras, in the first semester of 2018. For the development of this paper, a class was created and taught in a Public Health Policies teaching course based on the History and Philosophy of Science and Problem-solving Methodology, seeking to understand how these pedagogical strategies contribute to the teaching of this theme and its connection with the environment. At the end of the class, students were asked to evaluate the practice, pointing out the strengths and points to be improved. These feedbacks were organized and analyzed qualitatively through the Content Analysis and, later, were discussed. The results of the analyzes indicate that Environmental Education cannot be conservative of social conditions, but rather present the connection between man and nature, highlighting the link between the exploration of nature and the production of goods. In addition, the History and Philosophy of Science, starting with questions about the reality of students, can enhance the teaching-learning process, since it can avoid fragmentation of knowledge, allowing an approximation of students to scientific knowledge and its social use.

Family Motif in the Epic “Bahrom and Gulandom”

The present paper is about the noble views of our national values, including family, child rearing and respect for ancestors reflected in Uzbek folk epics. Each folk epic - whether it is gallant, romantic or historical in nature, to a certain degree imaginatively communicates the nation’s views on great and fiendish, man and nature, family and society, love and commitment, life and death. The peoples of the world started to completely understand this truth within the period when their heroic epics were being created and shaped, and expressed it artistically in their epics. Afterward, when the states developed and the issue of statehood was resolved, the idea of the family, which was of break even with significance to the solidarity of the people, got to be the staged stage of the historical-folklore process after the heroic epics.

An Interpretation of the Relationship between Man and Nature in Wei Jins’ Metaphysics: Based on the Confucian Ethical Code of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove and Nature

“Nature” and “the Confucian ethical code” are two of Wei Jins’ most important metaphysics. The ethical restrictions of “the Confucian ethical code” and the conflict of free development lie behind this pair of diametrically opposed philosophical conceptions. The Seven Sages proposed the concept of “transcending the realities and embracing our nature,” which was strongly influenced by Lao-Tze and Chuang-tzu. They advocated for the tremendous liberation of man’s nature, as well as a new explanation for man’s relationship with nature: human nature is also nature, enlightening future generations to maintain a harmonious relationship with nature.

Ecological Education by Means of Literature at School

The relevance of the article is due to the urgent need to improve the ecological education of schoolchildren in connection with active human intervention in nature and causing irreparable harm to it. Now it has become obvious that the knowledge gained by students in the study of natural sciences is not enough to foster a sense of responsibility for the state of nature. This deficiency can be filled with fiction, which clearly reflects the interaction of man and nature in different epochs of the development of society. However, in the existing methods and technologies for studying literature at school, insufficient attention is paid to the formation of the ecological culture of students. The work on environmental education in the study of works of art is carried out irregularly, the methodology of conducting a lesson, taking into account environmental education, needs further development. The purpose of the article is to form a respectful attitude towards nature and awareness of its indispensability for humans as an environment in students by means of fiction. The research is based on the concept of humanistic pedagogy, ecological and value-orientational approaches. The main research methods were the theoretical method, the axiomatization method, and the modification method. Based on the work done, it has been established that fiction containing ecological material contributes to the awareness of students of the inextricable connection between man and nature, reveals the beauty of the natural environment, evokes a sense of responsibility for its condition, awakens a protest against the predatory attitude towards it. It has been proved that ecological education by means of literature should be carried out along with moral, patriotic, aesthetic education, relying on the methodology of studying a work of art, using methods and techniques that are most appropriate to the material being studied. Among them, both traditional ones - the word of the teacher, conversation, independent work, creative reading, the heuristic method - which have been tested by many years of pedagogical practice, and new ones - the design-research method, the method of concepts. It has been determined that an indispensable condition for the successful ecological education of students, along with the use of the means of school subjects, is their involvement in active practical ecological activity.

The Conservation Management of Engenho Uchôa Wildlife Refuge as a Natural Heritage

From the perspective of United Statian preservationism, where the presence of human beings in areas understood as natural was opposed, the first protected areas in Brazil appear at the threshold of the discussion on the protection of the country's ecosystems, where the dichotomy between man and nature is admitted, and through which instruments for the management of Brazilian biomes and ecosystems are developed. This article discusses the nature management model in Brazil, contrasting traditional management (through the provisions of the National System of Conservation Units / SNUC and which reverberates to State and Municipal Systems) and the conservation management, understood as the modality of management that acts on the patrimonial dimension of nature. This discussion permeates the definitions of Natural Significance, Conservation and Natural Heritage in the Australian Natural Heritage Charter (IUCN, 2002), and through the example of the Mata do Engenho Uchôa Wildlife Refuge (RVSMEU), a state conservation unit by the State System of Conservation Units of Pernambuco / SEUC, it is discussed how the current ecosystem management plan approaches and distances itself from the conservation management of its heritage values.

儒家為什麼反對超人類主義？

LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in Chinese; abstract also in English. The concept of human enhancement is a key to understanding transhumanism. According to Confucian ethics, the supervision of human enhancement technology is vital because we are facing the reasonable expectation of achieving “the unity of heaven and man.” (The idea of harmony between man and nature is not exclusive to Confucianism; it can be found in other schools of thought in the pre-Qin dynasty period, especially the philosophy of Taoism. However, the idea is uniquely expressed and developed in Confucianism.) Furthermore, human enhancement makes people unable to “settle in their place.” Therefore, Confucianism cannot accept it.
