The Practice Of Individualized Method Of Instruction In Chemistry Teaching

The reform experiment in the new curriculum for high school students carried out from the autumn of 2004 highlights the educational conception to develop the students'personality and make the people as the foremost during the teaching process. While chemistry, as a part in the reform, should implement this conception to achieve the development of each student, who should become comprehensive as well as characteristic. To achieve the goal asks for the teachers to teach students in accordance with their aptitude, which we can call individualized method of instruction. As a result, studying this method and principle will still make realistic sense, even in the condition of new curriculum.We can see that most of the chemistry teachers can teach students in accordance with their aptitude more or less. But they don't really fulfill this principle. In fact, to teach students in accordance with their aptitude should make this principle a regular teaching idea, a conventional pattern and a teaching habit.This article is to analyze the reasons for difficulties in applying this principle to chemistry teaching, and to probe into a operational pattern using this principle from 3 aspects as the following: I) what is"according to their aptitude"II) how to teach case by case. III) to build a set of test and evaluation system of the students'accomplishments.According to the operational pattern, the writer draws an"outline for the class and students researched", and looks into the thoughts, cognition and ability of each student. Then teachers can adopt different teaching methods to get used to their diversity, such as cooperative teaching, method of discussion and investigation, and creative teaching.The forms of teaching organization should also be various and can be combined by the following: class teaching, group instruction, investigable teaching, teaching by levels, individual instruction and the students'learning by themselves.All that teachers do is to guild the students to take part in the learning process actively, to investigate independently and to think over questions. In the teaching process, teachers should develop the students'ability of seeking and dealing with information, analyzing and solving problems, communicating and cooperating with each other, investigating as well. Teachers should also train the students'attitude to explore the truth and their creative spirit.The writer also forms some cases under the different teaching organizations mentioned above, and provides a standard pattern of...
