Research On The Educational Reform Of Science Discipline In Normal Colleges

At the end of 20^th century, our country started up a new fundamental educational courses' reform. As the ministry of education promulgated the compendium on fundamental educational curriculum reform in June, 2001, the new curriculum reform entered the experimental stage. This reform based on the establish of the new courses system had intense systematization, and changed the simple methods of only renewing the textbook in the past, but systemically reformed in terms of course idea, course goal, course construction, course content, teaching process, course manage, teaching evaluation and so on. The new reform puts forward unprecedented requirements and challenges to vast teachers and teaching staff. How deep the teacher's qualifications and levels are will be the key to the success or failure of the course' reform. This makes a new requirement to the college education and its important position and function stand out in the course of fundamental education courses' reform. So based on fundamental educational reforming, it has vital realistic meaning. This article has made a analysis of the background of the fundamental education courses' reform at home and abroad, especially to the science education which is a part of these reforms, and abstracted four basic ideas: constantly cultivating and improving students' scientific accomplishment; standing out scientific research ,materializing scientific essence; emphasizing STS education; standing out the position of integrated scientific courses. Second, this artic systemically reviewed the essential features of science and meaning of scientific qualification ; putting forward the three-dimension structure of present scientific education ideas: scientific essence, times features, students' individual development. On the base of this, it analyzed the fundamental courses' education reform will gradually develop toward integrity, study and humanity. From these ideas above, we can know the hopes and requirements of fundamental education's reform to the scientific education of college, then build the normal school qualification students' knowledge structure (vast general education knowledge, systemetical specialty knowledge subject, firm educational special knowledge); abilities structure (common ability, subject ability, normal ability); qualification structure (scientific qualification, basic qualification, some qualification humanity ). This article also makes a full expatiation and evaluation about the normal university 'ideas and models of running a school, setting of scientific educational specialty, cultivating objectives and standards, the structure of course, teaching content, evaluating manners .Taking the representative course of general physics as an analyses, we aim to find common sense from peculiarity ,and comparatively fully reflect the actual matter of scientific teaching in college. Referred to main concludes, we know correctly a series of problems of scientific teaching in college .there is always a dispute between "normal" and " academy". And the final result is in almost all colleges: first, the course of normal teaching and the building of teaching groups are neglected and the teaching impact are bad; Second ,the setting of normal educational course are so single ; Third , the range of knowledge which only contains specialty is so narrow, not vast; Forth , Students lack ability to digest the close subjects, and can't meet with the requirements of vast knowledge in fundamental education ; fifth, the content of subjects are old, and the teaching materials with normal features few, teaching methods single ,evaluating manner solo, and so on. Through these discusses, especially the scientific educational reform ideas, it has briefly analyzed the important meanings of basic education's scientific qualification ideas and present scientific education ideas, dissected the knowledge abilities and qualification structure which college scientific students have to acquire, deeply examined the existing problems in current college scientific education. Under this vast view, it has all-around discussed college scientific education's reform in the terms of the ideas of building school, the style of cultivating talented persons, the aim and standard of scientific education specialty, the structure of subject specialty, system of courses structure, teaching content and methods and so on. It not only makes the teaching system actively adhere to and care for the basic education, but also constantly promote, lead and develop it.The 17th item of the compendium of fundamental educational course reform pointed out: "Normal school, other senior academy and training institution which has the tasks of cultivating basic education and teaching group should adjust cultivating objective, setting of specialty, structure of courses and methods of educational reform, according to the purpose and content of fundamental educational courses' reform." This article contains all these aspects.
