The human cognition from low to high is divided into data, information, knowledge and wisdom of these four levels in knowledge management systems. These four levels cover the interaction between man and the outside world of human cognition. The World Development Report published in 1988 took Knowledge and Development as its theme, it says that data is organized numbers, words, sounds, and images. Information is data which processed and arranged in a meaningful form. Knowledge is valuable information for the production. Wisdom is the comprehensive ability to use data, information and knowledge. As a cognitive activity, the content of science communication is nothing less than performance into data, information, knowledge and wisdom. This paper selects a number of children popular science booksat home and abroad, and takes a comparative analysis on these books. The purpose is to summarize the similarities and differences, thus propose constructive comments and ideas to increase the quality of our children popular science works.

Science Popularization was one of the important measures implemented by the Chinese Communist Party for constructing the Shan-Gan-Ning Border Region. The science popularization in the Border Region was adhered to the ‘science serving for the war’ rule. The Party's theorists proposed some judgments about ‘scientific methods should be in accordance with the task of science’ and ‘theory should be in accordance with practice’. Practically the Party emphasized the training of cadres or technical cadres, the education of the mass, solving the urgent problems encountered by the mass with scientific methods, and formulating many policies or laws. The authority of the Border Region founded some science institutions, propagandized and reported science and technology positively, and held exhibitions. The Party also encouraged the cadres to blend in with the mass, solve problems with science and technology. All the practices acquired good results, which defended the Border Region effectively, united the mass and the Party together firmly, and laid the foundation of successive triumph. The theories and practices of science popularization in Shan-Gan-Ning Border Region influenced science popularization of PRC drastically and historically.

This paper takes the scientific squirrelssina micro-blog as the research object, analyzing the 7745 micro-blogs from the beginning until 2013.8.31. This paper analyzes the number, the value-added of information, the distribution of content, subject and the effect of communication, then summarizes its characteristics of communication. We select two typical micro-blogs which are the principal content of the science communication into visualized analysis, put forward the corresponding suggestions in order to boost the long-term developments of micro-blogs' science communication.

Lu Zuofu was a famous industrialist in the modern society. By analyzing current historical materials, we find that Lu is also a prominent educator and science communicator. Here, his thought and practice of science education and his practice have been summarized and discussed. Furthermore, based on the above analysis, an objective appraisal on Lu's science education engagement is made.

Modern biology knowledge was transferred into China with the influx of western missionaries. In order to adapt to the needs of the schools set up by churches, the missionaries compiled the earliest biology textbooks. A number of new primary and secondary schools were established after the Renyin-Kuimao Educational System was put into practice by the Qing government. A large number of biology textbooks were published by the Qing government, government-run institutions of all levels, civil bookstores and some schools, most of which were translated from Japanese textbooks. Compared with the government-run institutions, civil bookstores occupied the main market of school textbooks. Although not yet mature, primary and secondary school biology textbooks in the late Qing Dynasty played a groundbreaking role for the later compilation and publication of biology textbook.

This article reports on a study of the development and characteristics of pupils' creative imagination. Data consisted of 2 160 pupils from grades1 through 6. Findings showed that pupils' creative imagination increased as the grade in school increased from grades 1 through 6, there was a statistically significant difference between pupils of any grades, whichrevealed that creative imagination continued to grow with an increase in grade level.

By using literature research and statistics, the article study the Nature (Ziranjie)'s Agenda setting for “The sinicization of science” from 1926 to 1931. On the basis of study, there are some conclusions: a large number of articles highlight the core issues; the character of the “Chinese style” is very obvious; various forms enhance the key topic; professional writing team ensures the rigorous of articles. By doing these, The Nature (Ziranjie) leaded the public option, enhanced the localization process of the western sciences, and promoted the later “movement of science”.

Professor Zhang Zhijie is a famous popular science writer and science history scholar. In the early 1990s, as a result of editing fine art books, he began to study art history. Since 1996, he has combined the art history with science history and developed his own research direction. In 2006, he published his masterpiece “Science in Paintings”. This book contains 20 articles, some being adapted from academic papers, some being rewritten to academic forms and published in the journals. Usually the author will explain how he finds a topic from the paintings and other cultural relics, and then write down the unraveling process. The significance of the book is to create a kind of popular science writing mode for those science researchers who are interested in popular science writing. As long as the researcher has a brilliant “pen”, he can write the complicated process of solving a problem, and bring up an interesting popular science article.
