[SSI Learning] 第十期沙龙纪要:李巧红——教育实践类学术论文的撰写与投稿(2021-03-31)

2021年3月31日晚19:30-21:00,北京师范大学社会性科学议题项目组在腾讯会议室举行在线沙龙,邀请教育部《教育与装备研究》杂志社编辑部主任李巧红为大家讲解“教育实践类学术论文的撰写和投稿”。以下为沙龙的重要内容,供大家参考。

李主任强调,在教育实践类论文撰写中最重要的是换位思考,从编辑和读者角度考虑文稿撰写,可以提高发表机会。在正文的写作中要注意以下五点:选题上大题小做(立意要大,切入点要小),立意要有问题意识和借鉴作用(讲自己的工作方法和原因),内容组织上要有的放矢突出重点(切忌盲目全搬数据和工作过程而导致焦点分散,不要大篇幅强调研究价值、研究过程中遇到的困难等无关内容),叙述上言之有理逻辑清晰(重要观点需要有文献证据支撑),结构合理详略得当。

李主任推荐了两种教育实践类论文的常见框架:对于系列课程介绍类的论文,正文应当包含背景、设计原则、课程体系(要详细说明课程体系如何体现了设计原则)、效果分析;而对于具体教学设计类的论文,正文则应当包含背景、设计思路、教学实践(要详细说明教学实践如何体现设计思路)、效果分析。各结构中,介绍课程体系和教学实践的应占比最高,设计原则、设计思路、效果分析次之,背景尽可能简略介绍。

李主任强调,论文内容呈现应当秉持这样的理念:期刊版面是珍贵资源,所以论文应当有高信息密度,用最少篇幅呈现最多内容。若使用图表,图表要给出顺序编号,正文引用时采用编号引用,不要出现“下图”“左表”等说法;图需要突出重点内容,删除无关背景(如展示仪器的图,应当用白底的仪器图,不要出现人物等无关内容;数据图则不应当出现软件界面),表的版面尽量不要超过一页;图表比起文字更占用空间,如果没有必要,最好使用简单文字表述。在正文的文字部分,要注意以下四点:文字表述规范(没有语法错误、错别字、口语化、网络热词),言简意赅(内容不重复,不陈述无关内容),客观理性(不要过度使用修辞手法,减少文字中的情感抒发和绝对化表达),文章内部词汇措辞统一(给一个较长的名词起了简称后,不要再使用全称;多个同义词统一使用其中一个;分级标题可以按照课程单元或教学流程命名)。

除了正文之外,论文还有其他重要要素,一篇合格的论文应当做到要素的齐全。标题是编辑判断论文价值的第一要素,是读者检索文献的重要依据,需要精准、学术且长度适宜;摘要是编辑了解文章概况和创新点的依据,是读者判断文献是否有必要进一步阅读的重要机制,需要内容客观、简洁,介绍论文写作背景和核心内容(研究目的、方法、结果和结论),不加注释、图表等非文字内容,以编辑的口吻、第三人称来写,摘要内容与正文内容相互独立,所以应当在摘要中重复呈现论文的重要内容;参考文献是学术形式的重要部分,提供学术线索且能够帮助写作,参考文献应注意格式规范。

在论文投稿方面,李主任认为要重视以下几点:首先,综合考虑论文选题内容、期刊定位、栏目、个人对时间和期刊头衔的要求,选择合适期刊;接着,根据期刊要求内容增删(如增加英文标题、摘要、关键词和作者简介),格式调整(分级标题格式和参考文献格式),内容调整(不要提及其他同类期刊,适度引用投稿期刊的文章,不要过多自引);通过近期纸质期刊的封面、封底、版权页或征稿通知查找投稿渠道,或通过网络搜索寻找投稿渠道(谨慎使用百度搜索,防范假投稿渠道,建议在中国知网出版物检索里找到相关期刊的投稿按钮,或者在期刊主办单位的官网寻找期刊投稿方式),注意验证投稿渠道真实性(如在主办单位或期刊官网、期刊公众号查找,通过邮件和电话咨询)。

最后,李主任以两篇文章为例,向大家介绍了《教育与装备研究》。该期刊主要以促进教育与教育装备融合为创刊宗旨,一方面刊发教育教学(实验教学、劳动教育、创客教育、项目式教学)论文,一方面也刊发教育装备类的论文(实验室、图书馆、创新实验室、实验仪器、新技术装备在教育中的应用等)。该刊物希望稿件不要呈现师生对话实录、活动照片,更重视如何实现课程和教学设计,重视设计理念、设计思路图的呈现。可以通过阅读目标期刊的相关话题文献感知期刊文稿要求。李主任鼓励大家多看期刊,一方面有助于修改论文,一方面也有助于个人进步。

At 7:30-9:00 of March 31, 2021, SSL Learning Project group of Beijing Normal University held a cloud salon in Tencent Conference Room. Director of the editors’ office of Education & Equipment Research, Li Qiaohong was invited to talk about academic paper’s writing and submission. The following is the major content of the salon for your reference.

Director Li emphasized that the most important thing in writing a paper is to put yourself in someone else’s shoes and to write from the perspective of editors and readers, which can increase the chance of publication. In writing the main body, it is necessary to pay attention to the following five points: choose a topic from a macro point of view, but write it from a micro point of view (big idea but breaking the points into small ones). The idea should be based on the problem and can be used for reference (talk about your own methods and reasons), and the content organization should focus on the key points (remember not to blindly use all the data during the process in order to focus, not to emphasize the unnecessary parts such as the research values and difficulties in large spaces). In narrative, it should be reasonable and logical (major argument should be supported by literature evidence). The structure should be reasonable and detailed.

Director Li recommended two frameworks commonly seen in the papers: for introductions to curriculum series, the main body should include a background, design principles, curriculum system (a detailed explanation of how the system reflects the design principles), and effect analysis. For papers for specific teaching design, the main body should include a background, design thinking, and teaching practice (a detailed explanation of how the practice reflects the design thinking), and effect analysis. In each structure, the introduction to curriculum system and teaching practice should account for the highest proportion, followed by design principles, design thinking, and effect analysis. The background should be as concise as possible.

Director Li emphasized that the content of the paper should adhere to this concept: the space of journal layout is limited, so the paper should be full of information, showing the most with the least amount of space. If a chart is used, sequential numbers should be given. Citations in the main body should use number references, and words or phrases like “below” or “table on the left” should not be adopted. The graphs should highlight the key points, and irrelevant background information should be deleted (for example, the graph to show the instrument should be white bottom, and no irrelevant parts such as figures should be shown. The data diagram should not include a software interface). The layout of the table should not be more than one page. Compared to texts, graphs take up more space. Therefore, if unnecessary, texts are preferred. For the texts in the main body, the following four points should be noted: text specifications (no grammatical error, typo, colloquialism, or Internet buzzword should be used); concise (no repetitive or irrelevant content); objective and rational (no overuse of rhetoric, less emotional or absolute expression in the texts); the vocabulary in the paper should be united (after abbreviate a long name, do not use the full name any more; one should be used when multiple synonyms appear; subtitles should be made based on the unit of the curriculum or the teaching flow process).

In addition to the main body, there are other major elements of a paper. A qualified paper should include all the elements. The title is the first element for editors to determine the value of the paper, which is also the important basis for readers to do a literature search. The title should be precise, academic and suitable in length. The summary is a major part for editors to further understand the paper, requiring objective and concise content, and the introduction to the writing background and core content (research purpose, method, result and conclusion). Non-textual contents like annotations or charts should be used. It should be written in the tone of the editor or a third person. The summary and the main body are independent to each other, so the summary should repeat the major content of the paper. The references are an important part of an academic paper, providing academic clues that assist in writing. The references should be formatted.

In terms of paper submission, Director Li believes that the following points need to be concerned. First, comprehensively consider the topic of the paper, the audience and column of the journal, and your requirement for the timeline and journal titles before you choose the journal. Next, add or delete content according to the journal requirements (for example, add an English title, a summary, keywords and author introduction), format adjustment (formats of the subtitles and references), content adjustment (do not mention other similar journals, quote the articles of the journal appropriately but do not quote your own articles too many times). Search the submission channels through the cover, bottom, copyright page or Call for Papers of the recent paper journals, or search the submission channels online (be careful when using baidu.com to avoid using fake channels. It is suggested to find the submission button on the relevant journals in CNKI, or find the submission channel on the official website of the journal). Note: Verify the authenticity of the submission channel (for example, through the official website of the journal or the organizer, the WeChat public account of the journal, email or telephone).

Finally, Director Li took two papers as an example to introduce to everyone the Education & Equipment Research. The journal is mainly to promote the integration of education and equipment research. On one hand, it publishes papers on teaching (experimental teaching, education on the hard-working spirit, maker education, and project-based teaching); on the other hand, it publishes papers on equipment research (laboratories, libraries, innovative laboratories, instruments, the application of new technology and equipment in education, etc.). The journal hopes that papers should not present the dialogues between students and teachers, as well as the event photos, but show how to achieve curriculum and teaching design, the design concept and design thinking. You can find out the requirements of the journal through reading the relevant topics of the targeted journal. Director Li encouraged everyone to read more journals, which is instrumental not only in revising the paper, but also in personal growth.
