Secondary School Geography Teaching To Cultivate The Students' Non-intellectual Factors In Experimental Research

Non-intellectual factors mainly refer to those psychological factors that do not participate in the cognitive process, but that play a directly restrictive role in it, including motivation, interest, motion, will, temperament, character and so on. People have long realized the role of non-intelligence in intellection.In our society, the non-intellectual factors are raised on the base of elementary education. With the development of the opening policy, we unfold a vigorous mass campaign in tapping intellectual resources in elementary education, following the one-side pursuit of acquisition of knowledge. Because we haven' t clarified the role intelligence plays in the process of learning theoretically, it has brought about many harmful effects. It is gradually recognized that, we should combine the development of intellectual resources and the acquisition of knowledge with the tapping of non-intellectual factors.In years of educational practice, I note that most students have difficulty in learning not because of mental incompetence but because they deviate in motivation, interest, emotion and will of learning.In view of existing educational situation, the author has been researching into the development of non-intellectual factors for two years, and with the purpose of developing them, laid down workable plans, and concentrated on the four aspects of non-intelligence, that is motivation, interest, emotion and will, strung the fourthings in the process of teaching--before-class, in-class and after-class, andelaborately designed interference factors in education.Over two years of experiments and deep study, I have achieved the desired goal. It proves that, students are individually different in non-intellectual factors. What influences their non-intellectual level are environment, materials, and teachers' advice, new-angles of matters and the effects from parents and company.The level of non-intellectual factors can be increased through scientific activities, and therefore has an active effect on knowledge acquisition.
