Latest ArticlesIn order to study the cognition of the parents participating in the series of parent-child science-popularization educational activities, Museum of Chengdu University of Technology designs the details of five aspects including the analysis of the parent-child activity participants, the interpretation of parent-child relationship, the frequency and personnel makeup of the parent-child activities and the analysis of the participation willing. According to the analysis results, it is known that museum’s carrying out series of parent-child activities has great potential. The participating objects are mainly the children from the kindergarten to Grade 4 of primary school and their parents. The parents in the activities pay more attention to the experience and practice of their children and thus have further cognition about the parent-child relationship. The cognition is good to set up and improve parent-child relationship. In this age which is full of media, the museum should establish service awareness, strengthen the joint with corresponding social organizations, design and carry out series of parent-child activities with museum characteristics.

Western Learning is crucial in the study of Chinese history of science and technology. This paper analyzes the importance of Macao by collecting and organizing the materials concerning the activities of science and technology in Macao.
Chinese society is undergoing transformation of the development pattern. To adapt to the new situation, adjustments of national development path, innovation elements and innovation strategy, position of public policy making, innovation culture construction and other aspects construct the current national development context. Based on judgments of new national development context, this paper makes an analysis of new requirements for science popularization work transformation: from four levels of science and technology open trend, transformation of public resources and market resources integration, rapid coverage of mobile Internet and information service industry, national demand for inclusive science and science popularization. Besides, following suggestions are put forward for transformation objectives of science popularization work: 1. start project concerning the national scientific literacy construction resource configuration from top design; 2. promote development of consumption science popularization industry; 3. Implement engineering of the national science popularization service open platform; 4. build service system and service pattern for “national innovation and business startups”.
Following the dynamic advancement of certain field is an important task for a researcher. This study compares and analyzes the conference papers in NARST 2014, ESERA 2013, ASERA 2014, as well as EASE 2013. The result shows that hot issues that researchers across different regions pay heed to are more or less the same. These hot issues deserve great attention from researchers in China.

With the integration of Meyrowitz Theory, the paper firstly introduces four elements (space and environment, users’ real-timecondition, users’ life style and social atmosphere) of context, and secondly analyzes how to get adaptive context of science popularization, in a nutshell, some suggestions are proposed: the manifestation of science knowledge should be adaptive to the mobile context and the balance between standardization and individualization is necessary.
We measure and compare the main hot spots and research groups of images of scientists research literature both at home and abroad indexed by WOS and CNKI on the basic principles of Scientometrics by the way of keywords co-occurrence, author co-citation and research institutions and regional visualization analysis. The results indicate that hot topics of images of scientists abroad are more diversified and systematic, they pay more attention to “science”, core authors have been formed, and research institutions are mainly distributed in America; on the contrary, hot topics of images of scientists are not that diversified in China, core authors are still in the preliminary stage, and research institutions are mainly based in such cities as Beijing and Wuhan.
Through a survey of ten WeChat public platforms on scientific achievements in China, the paper summarizes four major characteristics of them, discusses two aspects of their influence, and finally puts forward four suggestions for their further improvement, namely, enriching the diversification of communication forms, expanding the scope of communication, subdividing diverse audiences, strengthening different supervisions, and fostering a favorable atmosphere for science popularization.
