“让每一个儿童主动参与课程设计”的思考与实践

Reflection on and Practice of Children's Active Participation in Course Designing

让儿童参与课程设计,是对课程传统观念的挑战。经过二十多年来对儿童与课程的研究,无锡新区实验小学逐步从外围走向核心,从外铄走向内生,将儿童纳入课程的主体,让他们主动参与到课程设计中来。学校开发了丰富的校本课程,吸引并引导学生发现最好的自我;在课程实施过程中,坚持从课程和学科本身切入,寻找便于学生参与设计的要素。

Children’s participation in course designing is a challenge to traditional education.Research into children and curricula over the past20years sees that our school has gradually changed from the periphery to the core and from external to internal,and that children have been regarded as the principal body of curriculum,so that they can have the chance to participate in course designing.Our school has developed substantial school-based curricula,attracting and guiding them to bring out the best in themselves.Meanwhile,in the implementation of curriculum,our school sticks to starting with courses and subjects to look for the elements suited for children’s participation.
