Course On Technological Change: Dilemma, Logic And Way Out

In the information age or in the knowledge age,the voice of the reform of the curriculum with technology is very strong and has been paid much attention by all the countries in the world.This paper will study the hot topic of the technology change course,which is divided into three parts:the first,the middle and the next.The first part analyses the plight of the change.First of all,the history of "IITC(integration of information technology and curriculum)" is reviewed.It combs the three stages of curriculum integration:the opening period,the decline period and the regenerative period.Then the two ways of integration of technology and curriculum are discussed:the Curriculum technicalization and the technology curricularization.There are two enlightenments:first,from the perspective of curriculum integration development,the choice of division or integration depends mainly on the social demand for education and talents at that time.Second from the evolution of the integration,people are used to regard technology and curriculum as two"opposite" things.Then the paper rethinks the current situation of integration.It is pointed out that the current practice problems such as unclear technical application purposes and inappropriate application of technology,etc.It mainly shows the viewpoint of instrumentalism,as well as the"plug in" and "join in" mode of teaching application.In addition,the theoretical dilemma currently facing is the way of thinking trapped in "dualism",the research orientation focuses on "how to teach",the research perspective is limited to "how to do" and so on.The middle part reveals the logic of the course that is being transformed by technology.First of all,from the cultural perspective,this paper analyzes the research turn of integration and pointed out that the essence of curriculum reform is curriculum culture change,technology is the cultural background of curriculum reform and so on.Secondly,the internal mechanism of curriculum reform by technology under the cultural perspective is discussed.Technology promotes the changes of social culture,and the course is essentially a special culture with the aims of education,curriculum culture follows the laws of cultural change and change,therefore,the internal mechanism of curriculum reform is the technical progress caused a paradigm shift of curriculum culture.Accordingly,this chapter puts forward the analysis framework of "technology-Curriculum".Finally,the historical development path of curriculum transformation is sorted out and summarized into four stages:"pre technology-imitated curriculum","raw technology-classic course","mature technology-Stylized curriculum","rich technology-connectionist course",and discussed separately.The last part is to find out how the course will change.First,the "connectionist curriculum"based on rich technology is designed.First,from the four perspectives of "curriculum culture transformation","industrial production metaphor","the connotation of connectionism" and"formation of connectionism ideas",we further elaborate the idea of connectionist curriculum.Then the "five dimensional" design model(human,equipment,events,situations,contexts)are put forward at the micro level.Finally,the "five dimensional" design model is used to analyze the practice case,and to improve the design in view of its shortcomings.
