James&Tollefson关于美国东南亚移民教育政策的评价分析
Most studies of recent Southeast Asian immigrants to the
United States have focused on their
adjustment to life in their adopted country and on the effects of
leaving their homelands. James
Tollefson’s Alien
Winds examines the resettlement process from a different
perspective by investigating the educational programs offered in immigrant processing
centers. Based on interviews, transcripts (especially: an official copy of a
student's educational record) from classes, essays by
immigrants, personal visits to a teacher-training unit, and
official government documents, Tollefson relies on an impressive amount and variety of
documentation (the provision of documents in
also: documentary evidence) in making
his arguments about processing centers’ educational programs.
Tollefson’s main contention is that the emphasis
placed on immediate employment and on
teaching the values, attitudes, and behaviors that the training
personnel think will help the immigrants adjust more easily to life
in the United States is often counterproductive and demoralizing. Because of concerns that the
immigrants be self-supporting as soon as possible, they are trained
almost exclusively for low-level jobs that do not require English
proficiency. In this respect, Tollefson claims, the processing centers suit the needs of
employers more than they suit the long-term needs of the immigrant
community. Tollefson also detects a fundamental flaw in the attempts by program
educators to instill in the immigrants the traditionally Western
principles of self-sufficiency and individual success. These
efforts often have the effect of undermining the immigrants’ sense of community
and, in doing so, sometimes isolate them from the moral support and
even from business opportunities afforded by the immigrant
community. The programs also
encourage the immigrants to shed their cultural traditions and
ethnic identity and adopt the lifestyles, beliefs, and
characteristics of their adopted country if they wish to enter
fully into the national life.
Tollefson notes
that the ideological nature of these educational programs
has roots in the
turn-of-the-century educational programs designed to
assimilate European immigrants into
United States society. Tollefson provides a concise history
of the assimilationist movement in immigrant education, in which
European immigrants were encouraged to leave behind (leave behind:
超过) the ways of the Old World and to adopt instead the
principles and practices of the New World.
Tollefson ably shows that the issues demanding
real attention in the educational programs for Southeast Asian
immigrants are not merely
employment rates and government
funding, but also
the assumptions underpinning the
educational values in the programs. He recommends many
improvements for the programs, including giving the immigrants a
stronger voice in determining their needs and how to meet them,
redesigning the curricula, and emphasizing long-term language
education and job training over immediate employment and the
avoiding of public assistance. Unfortunately, though, Tollefson does not
offer enough concrete solutions as
to how these reforms could be carried out, despite his own descriptions of the
complicated bureaucratic nature of the programs.

1987 Aug 11;15(15):6131-48.Synthesis and hybridization studies on two complementary nona(2'-O-methyl)ribonucleotides., , , , , .Abstract2'-O-Methyl derivatives of the common ribonucleosides except for guanosine were synthesized via the 2'-O-methylation of appropriately-protected nucleosides with CH3I in the presence of Ag2O. The 2'-O-methylguanosine derivative was prepared by the monomethylation of a 2',3'-cis-diol system with diazomethane. These derivatives were converted to protected 2'-O-methylribonucleoside 3'-phosphates and used for oligonucleotide synthesis on polymer supports. Thus, oligo(2'-O-methyl-ribonucleotides) having the sequence identical to the consensus sequence of the 5'-splice junction CAGGUAAGU and its complement were synthesized in a stepwise manner using the phosphotriester method. Thermal stabilities (Tm's) of the duplex of these 2'-O-methyl ribo-oligomers and eight related duplexes containing ribo- or deoxyribo-oligomers were examined. It was found that the 2'-O-methyl oligoribonucleotides can be utilized as an alternative to an oligoribonucleotide probe in RNA hybridizations as the hybrid formed has a high, or a higher Tm, the probe is much easier to synthesize and it is less likely to be enzymatically degraded.PMID: 3627981
