Learning Theory as Teaching Resource: Enhancing Students’ Understanding of Economic Concepts 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A group of experienced secondary school teachers used a novel learning theory as a resource for planning and carrying out their teaching of a difficult economic concept. Their students mastery of this concept after a series of three lessons was compared with the mastery of the same concept by students who were taught by another group of teachers under the same conditions except for the use of the theory. The difference in learning outcomes was extreme. Observations of what was happening in the classrooms showed subtle but decisive differences correlated with the differences in outcome. These differences were interpreted in terms of the theory used by the first group, and the results seem to give support to the theoretical claim that for any specific object of learning there is a necessary pattern of variation and invariance that the learners must experience in order to appropriate the object of learning in question and thus by bringing out that pattern in the learning situation, the likelihood of that object of learning being appropriated is enhanced. Furthermore, this study shows how the understanding of the simultaneous change in the supply of and the demand for a certain good affects its market price can be brought about in a powerful way. 相似文献

In a previous study, Marton et al. (1992) asked Hungarian and Swedish secondary school students to read Franz Kafka's parable Before the Law several times. Rereading the text several times did not in itself improve or alter the students’ understanding of it. We found, however, that a more complex and advanced way of understanding the text was highly correlated with a certain way of reading; that is, in the use of a reflective variation. In order to determine whether it is possible to elicit reflective variation in readers and affect their awareness of alternative ways of understanding the parable, by giving explicit instructions, we conducted a new experiment in Sweden. The procedure for this experiment was designed with the aim of eliciting a variational reading and a more advanced understanding of the text. This procedure, however, created a strong reverse effect. Paradoxically, the variation in the readers’ understanding of Kafka's parable was dramatically reduced. The attempt to encourage readers to consider different interpretive options thus seemed to have enhanced the dominance of the most frequent form of understanding. 相似文献

This paper is concerned with an innovative approach to teaching Chinese characters. Traditionally, pupils learn Chinese characters
by repeatedly copying them until they can reproduce their form and pronunciation from memory. Most of the characters pupils
are required to learn are selected on the basis of their frequency in adult written communications rather in everyday child
usage. The process takes many years and is perceived by pupils as laborious and boring. The writers of the paper developed
an approach based on the phenomenographic approach to learning and on various pioneering ways of teaching Chinese characters.
Learning starts with the pupils’ own language and characters are introduced and used in contexts meaningful to the pupil,
attention being drawn systematically to structural features, written form and pronunciation. Characters are learnt in relational
clusters, similarities and variations among related characters in the clusters being used by teachers to highlight and emphasise
crucial aspects of Chinese characters and words. The learning mastered serves as a foundation for subsequent learning. After
an in-depth discussion of theory and pedagogy, the writers report an investigation in four primary schools in Hong Kong that
yields strong support for the efficacy of the approach. 相似文献
