开设荣誉课程:普通高中资优生培养的有效策略

Honor Courses Development:An Effective Strategy for Cultivating the Gifted Students in Regular High School

在应试教育的大环境下,普通高中那些学业成绩优良的学生未必就是在智力上受到严格训练、得到充分发展的人。为了论证这一观点,本文首先提出了衡量学生在智力上是否受过良好教育的四条标准,并据此标准从培养结果与过程两个方面论证了为普通高中资优生开设荣誉课程的必要性。为了增强普通高中课程对资优生的内在吸引力,更好地满足资优生智力发展的需要,本文提出了开发"哲学思辨类""、名著选读类""、自主探究类"荣誉课程的基本构想,并对三类荣誉课程的具体体现作了进一步的解释与说明。

In the context of exam-oriented education,students with excellent academic performance in regular high schools are not necessarily those students who have been trained strictly and fully developed intellectually.In order to demonstrate this point of view,this paper first puts forward four criteria to measure whether a student has received a good intellectual education,and based on these criteria,demonstrates the necessity of offering honor courses for regular high school from two aspects of educational outcome and process.In order to enhance the intrinsic attraction of regular high school courses for gifted students and better meet their development needs in intelligence,this paper tries to put forward three kinds of honor courses which focuses respectively on the philosophical speculation,selected reading of famous works,and independent inquiry,and provides further explanation about the basic content and significance of these three kinds of honor courses.
