“工程识图与辅助设计”混合式教学改革与实践     

黄莉  王直民 《教育教学论坛》2022,(4)

浙江财经大学“工程识图与辅助设计”为浙江省级线上线下混合式一流本科课程。分析“工程识图与辅助设计”课程的性质、特点以及在传统教学模式下课程教学存在的问题;对照“金课”的“两性一度”标准以及课程教学存在的问题,认为开展线上线下混合式教学改革是“工程识图与辅助设计”课程的建设路径;构建“三体系+三模式+三阶段+三形式”的教学组织形式,包括重组课程内容、运用多种驱动模式、重构课前课中课后教学流程以及形成线上线下混合式有机融合的教学形式,并从网络平台、课程资源与考核方式等方面开展课程建设。实践效果表明,采用线上线下混合式教学有效解决了传统课堂教学存在的问题,并能激发学生的学习兴趣,提升学生学习效果。  相似文献   

基于山东省高等学校在线开放课程的教学改革--以“概率论与数理统计”课程为例     

陈素玲  仇大伟  刘静 《教育教学论坛》2022,(11)

基于信息技术在教育领域的飞速提升,在线课程融入课堂势在必行。混合式教学是目前高等教育教学改革的热点。山东中医药大学教学改革团队依据培养应用型人才的毕业要求,对“概率论与数理统计”课程进行了混合式教学改革。“概率论与数理统计”课程知识点多且内容抽象,课堂容量较大,从而导致传统课堂重知识技能的传授,难以展开知识的应用,这进一步导致学生学习兴趣不高。另外,课程思政元素的融入也是一个亟待解决的问题。首先将知识点拆分,重构知识框架,建成山东省高等学校在线开放课程“医药数理统计”,在此基础上将智慧树平台翻转教学互动工具用于课堂教学,改革成果初见成效。  相似文献   

Factors impacting the rapid transition of anatomy curricula to an online environment in response to Covid-19     

Laura D. Bauler  Kate M. Lesciotto  Wendy Lackey-Cornelison 《Anatomical sciences education》2022,15(2):221-232

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, many academic institutions had to rapidly transition education to a remote online environment. While a hurdle for most educators, this transition posed an even greater challenge for anatomy educators, many of whom were forced to depart from the traditional cadaver-based laboratory to a virtual format. Recent publications have discussed the rapid transition to online formats necessitated by Covid-19 and the accompanying difficulties, but none have identified specific factors that influenced the difficulty of this transition. Anatomy educators were surveyed to examine how this transition was accomplished and perceived. Of the 165 educators who responded, the majority utilized cadaver-based laboratory instruction. Educators felt that transitioning the laboratory portion of their courses was significantly more difficult and required more time than converting lecture materials. Factors that impacted the difficulty of the transition included a number of pedagogical aspects of the pre-Covid-19 curricula, including the delivery format of prior content, availability of pre-existing electronic materials, and the laboratory technique previously used. Additionally, the length of time an educator had been teaching prior to Covid-19 impacted their perception of difficulty, with newer and more senior educators finding this much more challenging than mid-tenure educators. Ease of transition may be related to previous exposure to curricular reform, experience with multiple anatomy pedagogies, and educator adaptability. While not surprising that converting a cadaver-based laboratory to an online format was challenging, knowledge of the alignment of this difficulty with prior educator pedagogy can help guide future innovations to anatomy education.  相似文献   

Teachers Curating Virtual Exhibitions for Learning Visual Arts: A Study of Impact and Effectiveness     

Cheung-On Tam  Claire Ka-Yan Hui 《The International Journal of Art & Design Education》2023,42(3):469-485

Although visual arts teachers have free access to high quality online artwork images offering them immense teaching resources, making meaningful use of them remains a pedagogical challenge. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the transition from face-to-face to online teaching caused an immediate need for teachers to enhance their digital competencies and technological capability for planning and delivering a blended art curriculum. Herein, I propose a ‘teacher-curator pedagogy’ via a study in six primary and secondary schools in Hong Kong to assess its effectiveness. The study took place in the academic year of 2021-22 with 331 student participants. The proposed pedagogy puts visual arts teachers in the role of ‘digital curators’ who create virtual exhibitions for teaching art appreciation and artmaking. This paper addresses the theoretical framework, implementation strategies, and the results of the study highlighting its effectiveness, impact and limitations on teaching when using teacher-curated virtual exhibitions in both physical and virtual learning contexts. It was found that the technological capacity and confidence of the teacher participants was enhanced through the use of online resources and virtual exhibition tools. Making use of the 3D presentation of exhibits in themes and context through digital content curation, the teachers engaged students with deep interaction through the blending of online and face-to-face teaching. However, the proposed pedagogy was limited by the high demand of training and preparation work, hardware and software support, and difficulties in assessing and monitoring learning beyond class.  相似文献   

Interactional power and support in digital inclusion of an adult with intellectual disabilities: a case study analysis     

Darren D. Chadwick  Susan Buell 《Journal of Research in Special Educational Needs》2023,23(3):251-261

Digital inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities is not commensurate with those without disabilities. Societal, political, financial, individual and interpersonal barriers help explain this disparity. Caregivers can act as both support and gatekeeper to internet access and use by adults with intellectual disabilities. This study investigated micro-level interpersonal factors influencing access and use of the internet by an adult with intellectual disabilities to explore the balance and interplay of power and support around the processes of digital inclusion and online risk taking. Taking a case study approach, perspectives of three key stakeholders were gathered via interviews: the person with intellectual disabilities, his mother and a paid support worker. Perspectives and experiences were contrasted using systemic functional linguistic analysis of discourse to explore the ways power and support were represented in the language of negotiated digital inclusion. Dynamics between the parent and person with intellectual disabilities and between the parent and paid staff clearly influenced processes of digital inclusion and were affected by varying priorities, positions and perceptions of power to allow, disallow and monitor access and use of the internet. These had the power to shape and drive internet access. Language choices by the person with intellectual disabilities showed that he was not fully aware of the risks involved in engaging with certain aspects of digital inclusion but how he spoke about the internet indicated some autonomy in technology use. Supporting the development of digital competence, confidence and resilience in people with learning disabilities should be combined with support to increase self-awareness regarding digital risk. Those supporting people with intellectual disabilities towards digital inclusion need additional guidance on how to do this effectively for the people they support.  相似文献   

Inclusive pedagogies in digital post-Covid-19 higher education     

Anastasia Liasidou 《British Journal of Special Education》2023,50(1):6-27

The Covid-19 pandemic has not only led to medical conundrums and uncharted scientific territories but has also engendered new educational challenges and opportunities that need to be considered in order to reconceptualise, recalibrate and reconfigure higher education in terms of its inclusive foundations and orientations. While current research has highlighted the role of digital teaching methodologies in creating the ‘new normal’ in higher education in the post-Covid-19 era, the ‘new normal’ must be concomitantly envisaged in terms of the role of higher education in fostering more inclusive e-learning spaces. This article discusses the ways in which the tenets of an inclusive pedagogical discourse can be conceptualized and enacted in virtual learning environments in terms of teaching methodologies, learner-centred content delivery and formative assessment implementation. The pedagogical triptych should be underpinned by an inclusive and equity-based ‘cyberculture’ that constitutes a sine qua non element in developing all students' sense of belonging and learning in higher education.  相似文献
