STS课程研究综述

STS(科学、技术、社会)教育是当今科学教育领域中研究的热点问题之一。由于它的诞生和发展与整个时代的科学技术、社会以及文化的变化联系在一起;因此,作为一种科学教育的改革思潮,它还没有一个完全成熟的理论体系。本文从当前国际上STS课程发展状况出发,分析了STS课程的目标、课程类型和课程建构,并由此寻找一种把握STS课程发展趋势的框架。     

STS课程:类型、特征及改革走向

STS课程是当代西方科学教育改革的产物,它的出现折射出复杂的社会背景和科学教育观念的根本转型。作为综合课程的一种具体表现形式,STS课程可以划分为三种主要的类型:以科学概念和原理等基本知识为主导的STS课程、科学知识和社会问题交融的STS课程和以社会问题为主导的STS课程。课程内容的综合性、课程目标的多元性、课程实施的灵活性等是STS课程的基本特征,它预示了当代科学教育改革的一些走向,如强化科学教育的价值维度,摒弃科学教育的精英主义传统,从注重"知识体系"到注重"探究过程"以及关注科学伦理道德,等等。     

主要发达国家STS课程研究与实践述评

STS课程是西方发达国家科学课程的重要形式,是30年来西方科学教育政策调整和改革的产物。西方国家STS课程的实践有深厚的理论基础。不少国家都推出了一些具体的STS课程形式和教材。研究发现:主要发达国家的STS课程在目标上致力于培养学生的科学素养,在内容上体现了综合化的特征,在理念上则强化了科技与人文的整合。     

加拿大中小学STS课程的实践与启示

加拿大是在中小学阶段成功推行STS课程的国家之一。在科学教育的实施过程中,加拿大以培养学生的科学素养为总体目标,明确界定了科学素养的四个基础,并提出以统整性的"科学—技术—社会—环境"(STSE)作为实施STS课程的新方式。在加拿大,萨斯咯彻温省、大不列颠哥伦比亚省在实施STS课程方面较有代表性,其课程设置和实践经验值得借鉴。     

技术课程化演进及其对技术通识教育的启示

文章通过对技术课程化演进轨迹的历史回溯,系统地分析了STS课程的教育内涵及其实践价值,并对当前正在开展的技术通识教育提出了建议。基于STS教育的发展理念,技术通识教育应该走出技能应用教育或单纯技术素养教育的误区,着力加强技术课程与科学课程和人文课程的联结统整,突出技术通识教育的社会意义和人文价值。     

Teachers' perspective: Developing and implementing an sts curriculum

This article explores science TEACHERS' perceptions of and consequent decisions about the development and implementation of a nontraditional science curriculum. It is a case-study analysis that examines the perceptions of 14 secondary teachers of a model science/technology/society (STS) curriculum designed to promote scientific literacy. Although the TEACHERS' decisions varied on whether to accept, alter, or reject the STS curriculum, they shared similar concerns about the development and implementation of this multidisciplinary curriculum. There existed a common set of five factors that the teachers believed to be critical, and that strongly affected their daily teaching decisions. This study offers insights into how science teachers perceive an STS curriculum, and the influence those perceptions have on their teaching decisions. It explores curricular issues from the frame of reference of teachers, the key factor in successfully implementing innovations.     

Impact of the Knowledge and Beliefs of Egyptian Science Teachers in Integrating a STS based Curriculum: A Sociocultural Perspective

The failure of much curriculum innovation has been attributed to the neglect by innovators of teachers’ perceptions. The purpose of this study was to investigate inservice science teachers views of integrating Science, Technology and Society (STS) issues into the science curriculum and identify the factors that influence their decisions concerning integrating STS issues (or not). The study used mixed methods (questionnaire and interviews) with Egyptian science teachers who teach science courses for 12- to 14-year-old students. The findings indicate that unless curriculum developers take account of teachers’ beliefs and knowledge and the sociocultural factors that shape or influence those beliefs in designing and planning new STS curriculum materials, these materials are unlikely to be implemented according to their intended plan.     

再论STS教育的后现代性

基于对后现代主义教育主张的理解,STS教育在多层面上体现出后现代性:STS教育的产生与发展蕴含着后现代性;STS教育追求主体个性的发展,在课程内容上强调开放、多元,在教学中关注"对话"与交往,这些都显现出了STS教育的后现代性.     

Assessment of Practical Work in Ireland: A critique

Proponents of science, technology and society (STS) education advocate a literacy grounded in the context of ethical, individual and social responsibility. Accordingly, STS programs and themes have been designed and developed in an effort to interpret science and technology as complex socially embedded enterprises, and to promote the development of a critical, scientifically and technologically literate citizenry capable of understanding STS issues, empowered to make informed and responsible decisions, and able to act upon those decisions. This paper posits that STS is a desirable and commendable goal. However, many dilemmas arise when educators begin to seriously address issues of power, knowledge, decision‐making, and responsible action in the science curriculum. In particular, this paper is a case study of an elementary teacher involved in STS education, with her grade three‐four class. The real‐life event or issue that triggers the STS curriculum unit is the school's septic tank overload. In describing this case, the author examines the potential power and problems of STS education.     

The Delphi Technique in Identifying Learning Objectives for the Development of Science,Technology and Society Modules for Palestinian Ninth Grade Science Curriculum

This article outlines how learning objectives based upon science, technology and society (STS) elements for Palestinian ninth grade science textbooks were identified, which was part of a bigger study to establish an STS foundation in the ninth grade science curriculum in Palestine. First, an initial list of STS elements was determined. Second, using this list, ninth grade science textbooks and curriculum document contents were analyzed. Third, based on this content analysis, a possible list of 71 learning objectives for the integration of STS elements was prepared. This list of learning objectives was refined by using a two-round Delphi technique. The Delphi study was used to rate and to determine the consensus regarding which items (i.e. learning objectives for STS in the ninth grade science textbooks in Palestine) are to be accepted for inclusion. The results revealed that of the initial 71 objectives in round one, 59 objectives within round two had a mean score of 5.683 or higher, which indicated that the learning objectives could be included in the development of STS modules for ninth grade science in Palestine.     

A Study of STS Themes in State Science Curriculum Frameworks in the United States

This paper reports the procedure and results of a study analyzing Science-Technology-Society (STS) themes in state science curriculum frameworks in the United States. The criteria for the analysis consisted of 15 categories of standards derived from the K–12 content standards of the National Science Education Standards. Out of the 25 state science curriculum frameworks analyzed, 88% emphasized the standard Science and technology in society. Three standards (Environmental quality, Science as a human endeavor, and Nature of science and scientific knowledge) were represented in nearly 50% of the state science curriculum frameworks. The remaining 11 content standards were scarcely represented in the state science curriculum frameworks analyzed. The recommendations of this study include an examination of educational policy links to state science frameworks, and case studies of curriculum policy-to-practice transition in STS education.
