Exploration And Utilization Of Physical Curriculum Resources In Science And Technology Museum

With the development of curriculum reform, the lack of curriculum resources becomes a problem that needs to be solved immediately. Physics is an experimental-based discipline which needs more practical curriculum resources. Science and technology museum attracts the attention of the public with its excellent interactivity. It has developed rapidly in the past ten years in China. Its exhibitions and educational programs contain a wealth of physical knowledge.The Exploration and utilization of these resources for the supplement of school curriculum resources and the further development of science and technology museum are beneficial.The study consists of two parts:In the first part of the study, research science and technology museum physical resources:The present study first sorts and analyzes the development and utilization of the curriculum resources in science and technology museums at home and abroad. Then the author makes a field trip of Zhengzhou Science and Technology Museum in order to sort out its exhibitions and exhibition activities according to the high school physics curriculum standards.In the second part of the study, The utilization of the actual development of the science and technology museum physics course resources:And based on the first part of the study, the interview outline and questionnaire are designed. The author makes a questionnaire survey of the front-line physics teachers’development and utilization of the physical curriculum resources of science and technology museum in Zhengzhou high school. The main conclusions of two studies above are as follows:Science and Technology Museum in the physics curriculum has extensive resources; the lack of science and technology museum per capita; the lack of communication between schools and science and technology museum; the lack of professionals to explore the curriculum resources of science and technology museum.For better development and utilization of science and technology museum resources puts forward some Suggestions:the government should strengthen policy and financial support; the school should make great efforts to strengthen links with the science and technology museum and attempt to establish cooperation mechanism of "science and technology museums-education researchers-high school physics teachers".
