Key Events In The Classroom Teaching

Critical incidents are the event that could bring conflicting ideals to individual, and cause reflection about its words and deeds with adjustment accordingly. The class teaching formed by a series of event is a complex chain, while the critical incident is an important process. It plays an important role in the teaching effect, the relationship and development of teachers and students. By analyzing the teaching event, the critical incident research can reveal its special quality, category and teaching signification, then search feasibility scheme for constructing it.In this study, we collected the relevant information and teaching incidents by in-depth interviews with 12 teachers from 3 different schools. And we use the literature analysis method to sort and analyze the existed literature, and furthermore analyze critical incidents with case analysis method. On this basis, we sum up several characteristics of critical incidents, and discuss the classification and significance of critical incidents, and analyze the details of how to construct the incident construction at last.Critical incidents have several characteristics in teaching, such as innovation, difficulty, contingency and plasticity and so on, which can be divided into typical and atypical incident. Critical incidents have a great significance for teaching, because it can enhance the link between teaching theory and practice, and promote the establishment of a new teacher-student relationship, and furthermore stimulate the subjectivity of teaching. In order to maximize the significance of critical incident, teachers must participate into all critical incidents. We construct critical incidents in four steps:description-stating incident in details; interpretation-reading the incident in-depth; decision-making action plan; reflection-thinking comprehensively about the whole incident.
