中澳高中化学课程内容和课程评价的比较研究及其启示

A Comparative Study of Secondary Curriculum Content and Evaluation of China and Australia and Its Implications

以澳大利亚维多利亚州和我国的现行高中化学课程标准为研究对象,采用定性、定量相结合的方法比对分析中澳两国课程文本在课程内容、课程评价方面的异同,发现:我国课程内容覆盖面全,以内容模块体现选择性,课程评价提出多样化评价理念和建议;澳大利亚课程内容只选择部分学科核心知识,注重学科观念建构;课程评价注重学科核心技能,对多样化评价特别是活动表现评价提出具体可操作建议。澳大利亚课程标准不求知识点全,力求建构学科观念的课程内容设计,以及注重核心技能评价、落实多元化评价、活动表现评价的具体做法值得借鉴。

The study investigated secondary chemistry curriculum standards of China and Australia （Victoria） to compare the similarities and differences in content and evaluation by using a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods. The results show that China^s chemistry curriculum standard has the bigger range of content statements, embodies selectivity with content modules, and proposes the concept of diversified evaluation. Australian curriculum selects parts of core knowledge of the discipline, focuses on the construction of the conception of discipline, emphasized core skills of the discipline in curriculum evaluation, and proposed specific operational suggestions in diversified evaluation, especially the evaluation of performance in activities. The Australian curriculum standard is worthy of reference to its selection of core knowledge, the efforts in constructing the conception of discipline in curriculum content design, the emphasis on key skill evaluation and the implementation of diversified evaluation and activity performance evaluation.
