This paper provides an analysis of recent educational reforms in Hong Kong that aim to transform the ideological basis of the curriculum, teaching and learning. While the reforms appear compatible with current international developments in higher education and school curriculum—movements, for example, towards standards‐based accountability, the development of technological expertise and meeting the needs of diverse learners—major aspects of the reforms appear to contradict one another. The implications of current reforms for teacher education, in particular, are discussed together with issues related to the politicisa‐tion of reforms and teacher education pedagogy. The discussion highlights the need for an alternative approach to educating and preparing both new and in‐service teachers in Hong Kong to cope with the current and future educational reforms. 相似文献

Is there a place for Indigenous Knowledge in the science curriculum for a Zulu community in rural Kwa-Zulu Natal, South Africa? This article argues “yes,” based on a participative research and development project that discovered relevant science learning in a Zulu community. Among community concerns for relevant factual and performative knowledge, we found that culture and worldview are critical to community identity, to visioning educational outcomes, and to learning in school science. Cultural practices may contribute to pedagogy and curriculum; curriculum, in turn, may affirm cultural practices. Further, worldview needs to be understood as an aspect of knowledge creation. By understanding key aspects of an African worldview, science educators can contribute to both meaningful science education and community well-being. By fostering culture and worldview, a rural community can make a unique contribution to science education. 相似文献

STEM education faces an interesting conundrum. Western countries have implemented constructivist inspired student centred practices which are argued to be more engaging and relevant to student learning than the traditional, didactic approaches. However, student interest in pursuing careers in STEM have fallen or stagnated. In contrast, students in many developing countries in which teaching is still somewhat didactic and teacher centred are more disposed to STEM related careers than their western counterparts. Clearly factors are at work which impact the way students value science and mathematics. This review draws on three components that act as determinants of science education in three different countries – Australia, India and Malaysia. We explore how national priorities and educational philosophy impacts educational practices as well as teacher beliefs and the need for suitable professional development. Socio-economic conditions for science education that are fundamental for developing countries in adopting constructivist educational models are analysed. It is identified that in order to reduce structural dissimilarities among countries that cause fragmentation of scientific knowledge, for Malaysia constructivist science education through English medium without losing the spirit of Malaysian culture and Malay language is essential while India need to adopt constructivist quality indicators in education. While adopting international English education, and reducing dominance of impact evaluation, India and Malaysia need to prevent losing their cultural and social capital vigour. Furthermore the paper argues that Australia might need to question the efficacy of current models that fail to engage students’ long term interest in STEM related careers. Australian and Malaysian science teachers must be capable of changing the personal biographies of learners for developing scientific conceptual information. In addition both Malaysia and Australia need to provide opportunities for access to different curricular programmes of knowledge based constructivist learning for different levels of learner competencies. 相似文献

教师文化是"学校文化"建设的关键,亦是教育改革的重点。新的教育理念能否真正作用于学生,新课程改革能否真正被践行、被落实,都与教师文化极为相关。课堂是解读教师文化的最佳场域,教师的文化样态可以从教师的文化批判力、文化智识,教师的课程观、学生观等多方面察析。通过观察、透视中学语文特级教师肖家芸《向生命鞠躬》一课的教学,可以体察教师的教育智慧,可以解读蕴含于其中的教师文化。而无论是"尊重教师生命,关注教师个性",还是"尊重学生生命,尽显人文关怀",都是"好的"教师文化的显性表征。前者可以帮助我们体认教师的文化批判力和文化智识,后者可以帮助我们体察教师文化中的尊重、平等、全纳、民主等特质。它们直接作用并影响课堂文化品质,进而作用并影响学校文化品质、教育文化品质。 相似文献

论学科教学论的范式转换 总被引：8，自引：0，他引：8
随着教师教育形势的发展和基础教育课程改革的推进,学科教学论必须实现范式转换。从教师专业发展的全程审视,学科教学论具有与以往不同的地位、作用及构成:它为教师职业之旅奠基;培养目标应由教学技能型教师向反思型教育实践专家转换;在课程体系内应强化课程知识、学习知识和实践性知识;在研究方法上应倡导案例分析法、叙事法等;在话语选择上应从课程论、专业学科及教育实践中吸收新鲜的话语,改变陈旧过时的言说方式。 相似文献

20世纪80年代,师范院校各个学科专业体现师范性质的课程是心理学、教育学、教学法三门必修课程加教育实习;20世纪90年代,经过改革,增加了班级管理、现代教育技术选修课程以及三笔字、普通话技能训练课程。其中心理学、教育学始终按照学科理论课程的体系和标准开设,而教学法也演变为学科教育学,甚至教育技术演变为教育技术学,班级管理成为班级管理学。新世纪以来,高等学校培养中学、小学、幼儿园教师的专业理念逐步向教师教育过渡,最近印发的《教师教育课程标准（试行）》实现了教师教育课程的专业化、职业化、实践化变革,由此将会引起教师教育领域的深刻变化。 相似文献

提升"师范大学教育力",是新时代中国经济社会高质量发展对师范大学教育发展提出的更高要求。基于学科视角与方法论视角的概念界定方式,"师范大学教育力"在广义上可以界定为:师范大学所具有的"教育力",即师范大学在文化、制度、资源、科研、教学与课程等方面所形成的对学生的影响力、感召力、吸引力、协同力与整合力。根据师范大学的本体属性,"师范大学教育力"在狭义上可以界定为:师范大学所具有的"教师教育"的"力",即师范大学在教师教育中所表现出的文化引领力、制度保障力、资源提供力、专业投入力与人才培养力。"师范大学教育力"概念的提出是对"教育力"研究的理论深化和对教师教育实践的深刻反思,可进一步厘清新时代师范大学在我国教育体系中的独特地位与价值,为我国教师教育改革与发展提供理论指导与实践引领。 相似文献

特岗教师是我国为解决西部农村贫困地区师资问题而出现的特殊教师群体,研究其实践性知识问题对"特岗教师计划"的深入实施具有很强的现实意义。目前,西部农村特岗教师实践性知识存在的主要问题是课程实践性知识薄弱、教育心理学实践性知识缺乏、学科实践性知识不足。分析其主要原因是教师教育泛城市化倾向明显;应用性学科理论知识匮乏,学术理论知识学而不化;地方课程理论知识与地域性文化知识薄弱。进而提出的对策建议是:加强师范教育的前期准备、特岗教师的入职教育和在职培训。 相似文献

China is undergoing an education reform that calls for a change from a rigid, fixed curriculum and didactic pedagogy to a
more flexible, school-based curriculum and more inquiry-based pedagogy. This study investigated the extent to which Chinese
middle and high school teachers (a) endorse an inquiry-based approach and underlying learning principles, (b) practice this
mode of teaching, and (c) believe that the approach is practically viable in the current educational contexts in China. A
structured survey was developed to solicit Chinese teachers’ responses to the above three issues. A total of 582 valid responses
were collected, representing middle and high schools in different geographic locations. The results show that Chinese teachers
are receptive to inquiry-based pedagogy but find practical constraints in fully implementing it. Several cultural and pragmatic
reasons are explored. Policy implications are discussed with respect to teacher education/development, capacity building for
the new pedagogy, and teaching/evaluation alignment. Finally cultural issues are discussed regarding using inquiry-based learning
to enhance critical thinking and nurture independent thinkers. 相似文献

In this article, we argue that teaching is and should be a central element to learning to teach, particularly as teacher education once again turns toward practice. From this perspective, we must elaborate how such a shift addresses the need to bridge the gap between knowledge for teaching and knowledge from teaching, between theory and practice, and among university courses and fieldwork. If the intent of such a shift is to fundamentally change the preparation of teachers, we argue that it requires teacher education programs to do more than increase the amount of time candidates spend in clinical field placements. It requires, we argue, that teacher educators engage in simultaneous innovation in three related, but distinct aspects of program design and implementation: organizational structures and policies, content and curriculum, and teacher education pedagogy. Without such dynamic engagement, the practice-turn will go the way of many past reforms in teacher education—it will be symbolic but not significant or meaningful. 相似文献

A universal lack of attention to the professional learning needs of teacher educators is the driver for this study, which considers the most effective ways to support the professional learning of higher education-based teacher educators. At a time when many industrialised countries are engaged in systemic educational reform, this study provides an international and comparative needs analysis through a survey of 1158 higher education-based teacher educators in the countries participating in the International Forum for Teacher Educator Development: Belgium, Ireland, Israel, the Netherlands, Norway and the UK. Our results suggest that while teacher educators are only moderately satisfied with their professional development experiences, a strong desire exists for further professional learning. This desire, influenced by their professional context, relates to their current beliefs concerning ‘best practice’ in teacher education, the academic skills required to further their professional careers and knowledge of the curriculum associated with their fields of expertise. 相似文献

The single most important factor to improve the quality of education in a developing country appears to be increased general and professional education of teachers. Initially, it seems that this may be appropriately addressed in the teachers' colleges. However, the teacher educators themselves, often have received their own education either from the universities of developed countries or from “expert” expatriates at home. Often the result has been an adapted western curriculum being offered in the teachers' colleges, which is inappropriate to the student teachers. As a means of obtaining increased insight into a developing country's context, this study sought to gain some understanding of how Papua New Guinea teacher educators and inservice teachers negotiate their western higher education at the University of Papua New Guinea. This may provide assistance to expatriate educators to provide an educational experience that addresses student learning needs with appropriate process and content. 相似文献

This paper uses in‐depth interview data to explore aspects of the lives of non‐native speaking English educators working in the state education system in Sri Lanka. In so doing the research focus is on the educators themselves and the paper will discuss such issues as: careers as English teachers—motives for entering teaching, career progression, becoming a teacher educator; professional self‐development; beliefs about teaching, learning and teacher education; and the wider socio‐educational context of English teaching in Sri Lanka. It is hoped that the paper will offer insights into the development of non‐native speaking TESOL teachers—by making more visible features of practice in particular contexts—as well as providing ‘snapshots’ of teaching and learning in state systems beyond the western world which may inform thinking more broadly about international English language teaching and learning. 相似文献

This paper discusses the kindergarten curricula of Norway, Sweden, Japan and New Zealand in terms of whether they recommend or suggest teachers unify play and pedagogy by employing a pedagogy of play. These countries were selected because, while they have to provide for children's right to play, they cover different geographical and cultural parts of the world – Europe, Asia and Oceania. Their curricula were examined because they can influence teachers in favour or against employing a pedagogy of play, since they express the official-state expectations regarding young children's play and learning. The documentary analysis indicates that Japan focuses on child-initiated and teacher-directed play only, which does not imply a pedagogy of play. In Norway and New Zealand, there is evidence of almost all aspects of a pedagogy of play, which is not recommended for all learning, while the Swedish curriculum recommends a pedagogy of play. 相似文献

AbstractTraditionally, universities of technology (UoTs) have focussed on education to prepare students for the workplace. The Durban University of Technology (DUT) is currently undergoing a pedagogical transformation with the inclusion of a general education curriculum that aims to prepare students for an increasingly complex globalised work environment. This critical paradigm shift in curriculum design foregrounds new ways of teaching, thinking and learning based broadly on humanistic principles. Writing centres in universities are positioned to sustain a teaching and learning environment in which students grow as critical citizens. This article reports on research that explored – through the thematic analysis of tutor reflections – how a humanising pedagogy underpins a responsive writing centre practice within the changing South African context. Thematic analysis of the tutors’ reflections revealed their self-awareness of the significance of communities of practice in their work. These communities of practice could be seen to cultivate a humanising pedagogy within writing centre work, which might contribute to the aesthetic, socio-political and cultural environments in which students live and work. 相似文献

This article offers a critique of the quality of theorising underlying proposals on curriculum and pedagogy in the Cambridge Primary Review. Despite its strengths, the review is seen as omitting consideration of three major areas in primary education: gifted pupils, teacher effectiveness research and the private sector. Questions are raised about the review's use of evidence about a broad and balanced curriculum and about ability grouping. The proposals for curriculum are seen as backward-looking and bureaucratic, while its treatment of religious education is judged to be overly deferential and inadvertently sustaining indoctrination. Its proposals for pedagogy give undue emphasis to a particular form of constructivism, dialogic teaching, whilst ignoring theories of social/cultural reproduction. It is concluded that the review missed an opportunity to propose three more radical and innovatory reforms: to increase school autonomy in curriculum matters; to theorise pedagogy so as to include learning beyond the school; and, to integrate recent findings from educational effectiveness research into theorising pedagogy. 相似文献
