高师院校开展研究性学习的学科支持

Subject Backup for Research Study in Higher Normal Institutions

当前研究性学习在高中阶段的全面展开 ,给高等师范教育带来全新挑战 ,但在实施过程中存在着如下一些问题 :一是学生不善于从学科课程中挖掘资源 ,不善于从基础知识中寻找问题 ,发现问题 ;二是许多学生因知识面太窄 ,不了解相关学科的基础知识 ,因而在研究性学习过程中无从着手或打不开思路 ,致使研究性学习课程流于形式 ;三是教师指导存在着相当大的问题 ,致使研究性学习无法顺利开展。要解决这些问题 ,就必须在高等师范院校加强研究性学习的学科支持。这是因为高等师范院校开展研究性学习具有强劲的学科优势 ,加强学科支持不仅能为研究性学习提供坚实的基础 ,而且也是解决研究性学习课程存在问题的有力手段 ,同时能更好地推进研究性学习的实施 ,为基础教育输送合格的师资力量。所以 ,加强学科支持 ,推进研究性学习的开展 ,首先 ,要调整高师院校的学科专业结构 ;其次 ,要正确处理学科课程与研究性课程的关系 ;第三 ,要加强对学科教学的研究 ,注意密切联系实际 ,鼓励学生发现问题 ;第四 ,要加强教育学、心理学以及学科教学法等方面的知识 。

At present, research study has been fully applied in high school phase, which has form a new challenge to higher normal institutions. However, in the process of implementation, following problems do exist: Firstly, students are not good at exploring resources from subject courses, nor looking for and finding questions. Secondly, due to the narrow knowledge in many students, they have not got the basic knowledge in correlative subjects, therefore, they have no access in the process of research study or they cannot do with an open mind. As a result the research study is only a form. Thirdly, there are considerable problems in teachers guidance, so that the research study cannot be carried out smoothly. To solve these problems, subject backup should be strengthened in higher normal institutions. This is because higher normal institutions have subject advantages for carrying out research study; more subject backup will not only provide solid foundation for research study, but it also is a forceful measure to solve the problems in research study courses, in the mean times, it will better promote the implementation of research study to supply qualified teaching staff to basic education area. To strengthen subject backup for the carrying out of research study, we should firstly make adjustment to the subject structure in higher normal institutions, secondly deal with the relationship between subject courses and research courses, thirdly strengthen the research on subject teaching, paying attention to the close relation with practice, encouraging students to discover problems, fourthly strengthen the knowledge in pedagogy, psychology and subject teaching method, so as to provide instrumental assist for the carrying out of research study courses.
