   Alex Reins got three generations of his family together Wednesday morning at a little corner inside the Belmar Library in Lakewood.
  They’re diligently knitting hats for those unable to afford one during these unforgiving winter months. “In case they’re out in the cold and don’t have enough money to get a hat,” the 9-year-old said.
  Last year Alex saw a news article that caught his attention. “It was about a person who was discharged from the hospital in a hospital gown and socks waiting at a bus stop in the snow,” he said.
  “His big heart saw that and he thought, ‘We just need to do something to help other people,’” explained his great-aunt Cherie DeHerrera.
  His mother, Bri Reins, knows it’s in his blood to care for others. “It doesn’t take much to help somebody,” she said. “We learned that from our family, from my parents, from my aunts, from my grandma. They all taught us to give back to other people.”
  Seeing Alex, and three great-aunts sitting around a table, knitting hats they’ll never wear drives her point home. Bri said they’ve made over 300 hats and scarves in what they’ve called: Alex’s Warm Hat Project. They welcome anyone who wants to contribute time, supplies, or clothing they’ve knitted to the cause.
  Alex’s aunt Judy Lockwood drops them off at the Larimer County Food Banks in Loveland and Fort Collins as well as the 137 Homeless Shelter in Loveland.
  Bri said giving back and helping others doesn’t need to be a process. “You can turn a ball of yarn into something beautiful,” she said.
  Alex knows donating some of his time is worthwhile when it helps someone in need. “I just wanted to help more people,” he said, knitting away. “There could be a lot of people out there like that.”

  A.Alex has been knitting hats for the community since last winter.
  B.Alex has been learning to knit for people in need since last year.
  C.Alex has been knitting hats and scarves for people since last winter.

  D.He is in the blood of his family.

【摘 要】深层次学习一直是教学研究领域广为关注的问题,于在线学习的境脉下展现出了新的内涵和特点。但从文献回顾情况来看,国内外对在线学习中深层次学习的内涵并未形成统一的理解,也缺少清晰、系统的概念界定和特点分析框架,未能有效引导在线学习中深层次学习的实践。基于这一现状,本研究通过分析国内外深层次学习及在线学习中深层次学习的相关文献,对在线学习中的深层次学习进行了界定,建构了在线学习中深层次学习的特

沈昌文老哥:  见信好。  我四十岁以后,见到比我年长的男性都叫“老哥”,仿佛天津人管年纪稍大点儿的女生都叫“姐姐”。这样,总透着点儿亲切和平等,似乎有种不知老之将至的样子。所以,我这样叫您,如果按常理没论对辈分,老哥勿怪。  2021年1月10日,我在伦敦,处理完工作,给自己倒了杯香槟,泡个澡,刷手机,微信朋友圈里被您仙去的消息刷屏。九十岁,高寿,在睡梦中走了,福德多多。我老爸八十三岁的时候,也

【摘 要】 本文旨在探讨高等教育教与学的“教学法为先模式”。文章认为在决定把何种技术工具应用于教学之前,首先要考虑的是教学法问题(我们打算如何施教)。文章首先阐述当今高等教育常见的几种不同教学方法,并从教学法视角提出如何选择不同技术工具支持我们所选择的教学方法。文章重点阐述如何创设主动、协作和真实的学习体验,尤其是借助技术手段向远程学习者或混合式教学模式学习者提供(与面授教学)相当的学习机会,如
