创造有意义的学习经历——对高校人文素质教育的思考

Creating Significant Learning Experiences:Thought of the Humanitarian Quality Education of Chinese College Students

如何提高高校人文素质教育质量,美国著名的教育学者迪·芬克提出的创造有意义的学习经历这一教育理念值得我们借鉴。创造有意义的学习经历可以突破传统的教育思维,从思想到行动进行人文素质教育全面建构,缩短人文素质教育与社会实践的距离。我们可以从课堂上,设计与实施主题交流、课堂辩论、模拟情境、小组学习、案例教学等有意义的学习经历,同时,设计和增加服务学习、体验学习、观察学习、真实项目等有意义的课外学习经历。

On how to enhance the humanistic quality education of college students,L.Dee Fink,a famous educator in America,made a valuable educational point,which was described as ＂creating significant learning experiences＂.The point is leading to breaking the originally traditional teaching ideas,constructing an overall quality-oriented education from thought to behavior and reducing the distance between humanistic quality education and social practice.We could design and implement the significant learning experiences in class,including subject discussion,class debate,scenario teaching,group learning and case study.Furthermore,we could also design and develop the significant extracurricular activities,such as service learning,experiential learning,observational learning and actual program learning.
