开放大学老年课程体系建设路径初探

Approaches to Constructing Elderly-Oriented Curriculum in Open University

信息技术与老年教育正在不断融合。当前,开放大学老年教学体系初步形成,但是,开放大学老年课程资源和课程教学开放程度不高等问题依然存在,迫切需要加强课程体系建设。根据需求学习理论、参与式学习理论、新技术与老年教育融合理论、开放大学理念,提出课程设置精细化、分层化,课程管理自主化、灵活化,课程开发微型化、移动化,课程规划制度化、规范化管理等建议。

On the basis of information technology, an elderly-oriented curriculum has been outlined in the Open University. But there are still some problems like less openness in learning resources development and teaching, which calls for an improvement of the curriculum construction. Such theories as need-based learning, participatory learning, integrative new technology and elderly-oriented education, and open university ideology lend themselves to proposed solutions to these problems, to name a few, accurately stratifying the curriculum system, managing in an autonomous and flexible manner, breaking down the contents into chips serving better mobile learning, systematizing the planning, and regulating management and so on.
