大概念课程设计:指向学科核心素养落实的课程架构

Curriculum Design around Big Ideas: the Framework for Implementing Subject Core Competences

学科核心素养是核心素养在学科层面的具体体现,其落实困难主要有囿于线性知识体系困境、限于浅层学习桎梏以及受于情景固化遮蔽三个问题。日前,我国正式发布普通高中课程标准,首次提出了以学科大概念为核心来推动高中学科核心素养的落实。大概念是知识背后的知识,表现出中心性、网络状、可持久和可迁移等特点,能促进学生对知识的本质理解,形成学科观念,促进学生发生知识联结,发展适应能力,促进学生自我建构与自我进化,指向终身素养。围绕大概念进行课程设计以促进学科核心素养的落实需要七步框架(SFCBI),具体包括选择单元主题、筛选大概念群、确定关键概念、识别主要问题、编写单元目标、开发学习活动和设计评价工具。

Subject core competences are a concrete manifestation of core accomplishment at the discipline level. Its implementation is mainly confined to the difficulties of a single discipline, limited to shallow learning, and obscured by scenarios. Recently, China officially released the general high school curriculum standards, and for the first time put forward the implementation of subject core competences of high school based on the subject Big Ideas. The Big Ideas are the knowledge behind the knowledge, showing a central, enduring, network-like, and transferable （Big Ideas Cent）, which can promote the students＂ understanding of the essence of knowledge, form the concept of the discipline; promote the students＂ knowledge connection, and develop adaptability;promote student serf-construction and self-evolution, pointing to lifelong competences. A seven-step framework （SFCBI） is needed to implement curriculum design around the big concept to promote the core accomplishment of disciplines. It includes the selection of unit topics, the selection of large conceptual groups, the identification of key concepts, the identification of major issues, the preparation of unit goals, the development of learning activities, and the design of evaluations, tool.
