论教育技术发展牵引的教学改革

On the Education Reform Activated by the Progress of Educational Technology

当前教学改革进入了"深水区",尤其是以MOOCs、Smart和Clicker等为代表的新兴教育技术,正在深刻影响和改变着高等学校的教学方式。鉴于Clicker、Smart和MOOCs等教育技术已经相对成熟,并且在实践层面对高等学校的教学方式产生了深远影响,故本文对Clicker、Smart和MOOCs的发展沿革、各自特点和发展趋势,进行了介绍和梳理,试图分析教育技术从单一的技术工具向整体教学空间形成的发展过程,探讨教育技术发展在教学空间、教学方式、学习方式等方面引发的教学变革,进而指出教育技术发展的最终指向,应是促使高等教育回归到人的培养这一本质属性。

At present, the education reform has entered a deep-water zone. Several advanced educational technologies, such as ＂Clicker＂, ＂Smart＂ and ＂MOOCs＂, had changed the teaching mode in higher education institutions across the world greatly. These advanced technologies had already been relatively mature ones, and in practice, they had exerted a profound impact on the development of higher education. Therefore, after a brief introduction to the geneses and the characteristics of the three ones, this paper presents an in-depth study on the evolution of educational technology from a merely technical tool to an overall teaching space. In particular, the educational reforms that activated by advanced educational technologies are demonstrated from three aspects, teaching space, teaching mode and learning mode. Furthermore, it was emphasized that along the development of educational technology, there is but one objective of higher education, i.e., cultivation of man.
