STEM教育视野下小学机器人教学活动设计与实施

Design and Implementation of Robot Teaching Activities in Primary Schools from the Perspective of STEM Education

以机器人教育为代表的科创类课程成为小学信息技术教育及创客教育不可或缺的一部分。但在实际应用中存在诸如跨学科整合不足等问题。STEM教育强调跨学科的综合性学习,为小学机器人教育提供了新视角。本研究以福州市Y小学的六年级学生为研究对象,在EV3乐高教学实践中,融入STEAM教育理念,设计趣味机器人教学案例和教学模式。在零件搭建和编程实现工程中,运用数学、语文、物理、科学、编程等多学科知识,将教学重难点循序渐进地渗透到课程内容中。在动手实践中培养了学生的工程搭建能力,也刺激了学生对相关知识的深入理解。结果表明基于STEM理念的小学机器人教育,在项目学习扩展学生知识的过程中,丰富了学生的人工智能知识,提高了其学习兴趣、学习自主性、创造力和协作能力。

The creative curriculum represented by robot education has become an indispensable part of primary school information technology education and maker education.However,there are some problems in practical application,such as the lack of interdisciplinary integration,and so on.STEM education emphasizes interdisciplinary comprehensive learning,which provides a new perspective for robot education in primary schools.This study takes the sixth graders of Y Primary School in Fuzhou city as the research object,integrates the STEM education into the Lego teaching practice,and designs interesting robot teaching cases and teaching models.In the building and programming realization project,the important and difficult points of teaching are gradually infiltrated into the course content by using multi-disciplinary knowledge such as mathematics,Chinese,physics,science,programming and so on.In the hands-on practice,it not only trains the students engineering construction ability,but also stimulates the students in-depth understanding of the relevant knowledge.The results show that the primary school robot education based on STEM concept enriches students artificial intelligence knowledge and improves their learning interest,learning autonomy,creativity and cooperation ability in the process of expanding students knowledge.
