The Research Into Learning Plan Design And Application Of Elements' Compounds In New Curriculum

Before the new curriculum reform, most of the classroom teaching model is traditional, that is, teachers speak too much and students just listen and have less autonomic learning; they are accustomed to lectures, taking notes, rather than thinking and exploring it actively. Students are often in a negative, passive, and depressed state, and thus can't be initiative, and enthusiasm. This is not conducive to the acquisition of knowledge and training of ability, but also not conducive to the develop of the intellect and innovation. Under the impact of the new curriculum, whether it is experimental or non experimental areas, teachers use the "Learning Plan" to guide the students to observe, read, think, and discuss, thus forming a teaching model of "guide the students with the learning plan". This model has been generally recognized, and attracted most teachers to research and practise designing and using learning plans.Because learning plans can help develop the ability of students'autonomic, cooperative and exploring learning, Currently, how to put Learning Plan Guidance into practice, and how to use the limited classroom time effectively has become a great concern to researchers. The studying of elements' compounds is a student's study of the composition, structure, properties, production method and use of a substance. The study of elements'compounds is especially important to developing and training students' ability of observation, experimental capabilities, analyzing and concluding skills, as well as deducting ideation from the general to the individual, which means developing students' ability of exploring. During the teaching of elements and their compounds, if the teacher adopts the model of "Learning Plan Guidance", design corresponding plans for different teaching courses, guide students to explore the properties of substance and establish the laws of interaction between substances, thus to improve students'attainment in thinking and science, there will be far-reaching significance and practical value.In recent years there have been many scattershot but not systemic studies in various magazines and journals, Inquiries between 2000-2009 on Outstanding Master Thesis of Chinese text databases shows only a few studies were involved in this area. For these reasons, I decide to conduct this project.Via systemic and academic study and aiming at the characteristics of compounds of elements, this research focuses on summarizing the principals of the Learning Plan design, and concluding the law that the model of Exploring Learning Plan is more accordant to requirements of the new curriculum. With illustrations of the principle of the use of the Learning Plan design, it will be more helpful for us to design the Learning Plan of elements'compounds and contribute to new models in Senior Chemistry teaching.With the guidance of the theories of operative learning, exploring learning and constructivist learning theory, my project concludes that during the design of the Learning Plan, we should follow the next six principles: the exploring principle, situational principles, challenging principle, opening principle, the hiberarchy principle, and the oriented principle. And according to different lecture patterns, there are new lectures and review lectures. During the design of Learning Plan of new lectures, there are two laws:the law of recurring the history of science and the law of creating situations. During the design of Learning Plan of review lectures, we should demonstrate three designing ways combining the properties of elements' compounds, evaluate it with detailed designing examples and illustrate that Exploring Learning Plan of elements' compounds can better match the requirements of the new curriculum. At the same time special stress is laid on the proceedings during the designing.On the basis of researches into theories and practical cases, we tested the students in Class 09-3 and 09-4 Senior one in No. One High School, in the form of paper quiz and questionnaires. In the end, we found that the Learning Plan made according to these principles and ways above can reflect the actual levels of the students' acquisition in elements'compounds.The outcome of the project falls on concluding the principles that we should follow while designing the Learning Plan; concluding different categories of the Learning Plan; providing the model of the Learning Plan-Exploring Learning Plan. Meanwhile, the project puts forward advice on how to bring it into effect. Most of all, the project lays foundation for the research into teaching and Learning Plan-design of elements' compounds.As the academic level of researchers and research time are limited, the conclusions of this project remains to be further tested, deepened, improved and expanded. How to improve the quality of the design, and how to improve the use of the design to promote the formation of effective lectures is the future direction and focus of further study.
