博客在教育教学中的应用

一、博客及其在教育教学中的作用什么是博客(blog)?博客是指个人或团体将每天的事件、意见和信息等发布到Web上的一种流水记录形式,即在线日记。博客也称为“网志”、“网上日志”。一个博客其实就是一个网页,由简短且经常更新的贴子所构成,张帖的文章都按照年份和日期倒序排列,使用者可以对文章分类、管理、隐藏、编辑,是“个性化的知识仓库”。教育博客是博客在教育教学中加以应用的表现形式。对于教师而言,博客的过程主要是整理自己知识体系的过程;对于学生来讲,博客的过程则主要是个人构建自己的知识体系的过程。博客在教育教学中具有…

Beginners and programming: insights from second language learning and teaching

This paper will consider issues that are important in the teaching and learning of programming to students in their first year of an undergraduate course in a computer science discipline. We will suggest that the current educational climate offers the opportunity to move the focus onto the learner and their experience, and that second language learning and teaching in the field of English as a Second, or Foreign, Language may be a fruitful area on which to draw. We will review a particular aspect of second language pedagogy-learner strategies-and discuss their applicability to students who are starting to learn how to program. We will consider ways in which these strategies might be useful to support learning programming at this level.     

“教学做合一”教育思想探源

"教学做合一"在人类的教育教学活动中起着非常重要的作用。陶行知在接受、实践、批判王阳明的"知是行之始,行是知之成"知行观的基础上,形成了"行是知之始,知是行之成"的行知观,这对"教学做合一"思想的形成非常重要,杜威的"从做中学"的教学理论,是"教学做合一"理论的直接源头,历代教育家的教育理论对"教学做合一"理论的形成也具有非常重要的影响。"教学做合一"理论发端于1919年,产生于1922年,成名于1925年,充实于1927年及以后。"教学做合一"具有非常重要的理论价值,它开创了教育"由死变活"、"求异思维"和"创新创造"的新局面。在现代社会教育中,尤其是教学改革、终身学习、创造教育中都需要"教学做合一"理论作思想指导。

Understanding teacher learning in secondary education: The relations of teacher activities to changed beliefs about teaching and learning

In this study, relations between learning activities of teachers and changes in their beliefs were examined. Thirty-four teachers in Dutch secondary education were asked to complete a questionnaire regarding their beliefs about teaching and learning on two occasions. They were also asked to report on learning activities that they undertook. Teachers who had changed their beliefs in a direction congruent with the aims of recent educational reforms often reported experimentation with colleagues' teaching methods. Teachers who changed their beliefs in a direction that was not congruent with the reform often reported experimentation with alternative methods due to discontent with the effectiveness of current methods.     

A Cross-cultural Exploration of Children's Everyday Ideas: Implications for science teaching and learning

Children's everyday ideas form critical foundations for science learning yet little research has been conducted to understand and legitimize these ideas, particularly from an international perspective. This paper explores children's everyday ideas about the environment across the US, Singapore and China to understand what they reveal about children's relationship to the environment and discuss its implications for science teaching and learning. A social constructivist lens guides research, and a visual methodology is used to frame children's realities. Participants' ages range from elementary to middle school, and a total of 210 children comprized mainly of Asians and Asian Americans were sampled from urban settings. Drawings are used to elicit children's everyday ideas and analyzed inductively using open coding and categorizing of data. Several categories support existing literature about how children view the environment; however, novel categories such as affect also emerged and lend new insight into the role that language, socio-cultural norms and perhaps ethnicity play in shaping children's everyday ideas. The findings imply the need for (a) a change in the role of science teachers from knowledge providers to social developers, (b) a science curriculum that is specific to learners' experiences in different socio-cultural settings, and (c) a shift away from inter-country comparisons using international science test scores.     

代数美与提高学生的学习兴趣

在代数教学中如何提高学生的学习兴趣一直是代数教师们所关心的主要问题。本文在对代数美进行探讨的基础上,对在代数教学中如何利用代数学科本身的内在美以提高学生的学习兴趣进行了初步的探讨。我们认为这对于提高学生的学习兴趣是大有帮助的。     

The growing gap between colombian education policy, official claims and classroom realities: insights from mathematics teachers' conceptions of beginning algebra and its teaching purpose

Since 1994 when the General Law of Education was issued, educational authorities have been claiming that Colombia has embarked on an educational revolution [‘La revolución educativa’ (n.d.). From the Colombian Ministry of Education website: . Retrieved 23 Nov 2004] where schools have curricular autonomy, and are to improve the quality of education by attending to the needs of the communities they serve. Teachers are urged to engage in a continuous process of constructing the curriculum which is to be anchored in the fundamental aim of educating critical citizens. The findings of this study carried out with the participation of 13 mathematics teachers with a range of teaching experiences and from different schools in Bogotá, show a totally different picture. Instead, for the teaching of school algebra, teachers emphasised the purpose of training pupils in the manipulation of symbolic expressions, as the prerequisite knowledge for the next school mathematics level and ultimately for the External Examination. I offer explanations for the identified gap and argue for the crucial need to create conditions for change at the education systemic level and for the actual empowerment of teachers.     

Collaborative action research on the learning and teaching of algebra: a story of one mathematics teacher's development

This paper presents the story of a mathematics teacher's transformation that resulted from her engagement in collaborative action research. The collaborative research, conducted by a university mathematics educator and an eighth-grade mathematics teacher (Marylin), centered on investigating the outcomes of implementing a Hands-On Equations approach to teaching algebra. This algebraic study, which is briefly reported herein, serves as a vehicle for examining the questions, reflections, and changes brought forth by Marylin throughout the collaborative process. Thus, the project of investigating the teaching and learning of algebra can be viewed as the sub-study within the broader study of the effects of collaborative action research on the mathematics teacher involved in the investigation. Within this paper, issues related to the broader study of collaborative action research in the mathematics classroom, that are connected to Marylin's transformation, are discussed. These issues include the characterization of and goals for collaborative action research as well as the challenges for collaborative action research in mathematics classrooms.This revised version was published online in September 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Commentary: School reform,teaching and learning

This commentary on the papers starts with the view that reform policies are additive, layered and unpredictable. Given this nature of reforms, the author suggests certain lessons for policymakers and policy researchers to learn. First, that a theory of learning should underlie policymakers’ implementation decisions. Second, that the multiplicity of reforms may block genuine learning. Third, that understanding the relationship between policy and practice requires an ‘inside‐out’ perspective which takes the changing of educational practice as the central concern rather than the policy environment.     

科学选拔创新人才的理念、方法与成效——2006-2017复旦大学改革探索综述

从2006年至今,复旦大学结合本校"人文情怀、科学精神、专业素养、国际视野"人才培养理念的内在要求,探索科学选拔创新人才的途径。在改革中,复旦大学一方面试图克服片面的"唯分数论"应试教育的弊端,另一方面不断探索根据学生综合素质评价选才的切实可行的办法。经过多年探索,复旦大学创立了一套"笔试+入学申请+面试"的选才模式。这一模式既在一定范围内得到推广,也通过学生在校的实际表现证明了其方法的科学性和有效性,还推动了本科教育教学改革,同时在素质教育、全面发展的育人观等方面引领了社会价值取向。
