| With the popularization and development of Internet and information technology,globalization has promoted the development of globalization.Globalization has made the links between countries all over the world increasingly close,and the politics,economy and culture can be deeply exchanged.At the same time,with the development of globalization,it has also brought some global problems.In this context,the voice of global competency education for the future is becoming higher and higher.Global competence education cultivates individuals’ global competence,helps them better adapt to globalization,can better survive and develop in this closely connected world,and can contribute to the common well-being and sustainable development of mankind.At present,many countries regard global competence as a necessary quality for students to meet future social challenges,and incorporate it into the education system.To deeply participate in global governance and improve international competitiveness,China needs to cultivate international talents with global competence.The cultivation of global competence needs to be started from an early age,but there is no special curriculum for cultivating global competence in China’s basic education system,so it is necessary to infiltrate and cultivate students’ global competence in subject teaching.Geography has many things in common with global competency education because of its curriculum nature and content,which makes geography have unique and important value in the cultivation of global competency.By combing the existing literature through the literature research method,it is found that the research on the cultivation of global competence in geography is still relatively few,and it is mainly concentrated in the high school stage,and there is little about the junior middle school stage.In addition,the existing research is mainly theoretical research,and there is less research on the combination of theory and practice.Therefore,starting from the discipline of Geography in junior middle school,this study combines theory and practice to explore the training path of global competence in geography teaching in junior middle school.This study is guided by conflict theory,postmodern educational thought and constructivism theory.Using the method of literature research,this paper defines the concept of global competence;Combined with the expert consultation method and based on previous studies,according to the training requirements of global competence and the nature,content and curriculum standards of junior middle school geography curriculum,this paper constructs the global competence index system of junior middle school geography from the four dimensions of knowledge,skills,attitudes and values and action;Taking the geography textbook of Grade 7 of Hunan Education Edition as an example,this paper analyzes the content of cultivating global competence in the textbook;Based on the training requirements of global competence and the constructed index system,combined with conflict theory,constructivist education theory and postmodern education thought,this paper puts forward the training strategy of carrying out communication interactive "topic" situational teaching in classroom teaching and carrying out topic centered practical activities in extracurricular practice.Using the experimental research method and questionnaire survey method,according to the proposed training strategy,the teaching practice of one semester is carried out in the experimental group class,and the routine teaching is carried out in the control group class.Through the evaluation questionnaire,the current situation of the global competency level of the students in the experimental group and the control group before and after the experiment is investigated,and the data are compared and analyzed.It is found that the global competency level of the students in the experimental group is significantly higher than that of the students in the control group.The following conclusions are drawn:(1)Carrying out interactive "topic" situational teaching and topic centered practical activities in junior middle school geography teaching is conducive to improving students’ global competency level.(2)Constructing the global competency index system of Geography in junior middle school can guide the direction for junior middle school geography teaching to cultivate students’ global competency. |
