情境学习理论在研究生教学中的应用

On the Application of the Situated Learning Theory in Postgraduate Teaching Program

研究生教学存在着目标狭窄、研究性和自主性不足、评价随意等弊病。情境学习是最适合为研究生的教学改革提供理论指导的一种学习理论。从情境学习理论的视角看,研究生的教学应是高层次的素质教育,可以采取构建学习共同体、提供案例、强化实践教学、促进反思、实施过程性与自主性评价等具体的教学策略。

The present postgraduate teaching program in China has the drawbacks of narrow teaching orientation, inadequate space for research and learning autonomy, and arbitrary assessment. The situated learning theory fits well in postgraduate teaching reform. In the view of this theory, postgraduate teaching is a kind of high-level quality education which can be attained through constructing a learning community, providing cases, strengthening practice, boosting students＇ reflection, and implementing procedural and autonomous assessment.
