Design And Practice Of Project-based Learning Of General Technology From The Perspective Of Core Literacy

Since the 21 st century,the country has increasingly attached importance to the research of the core literacy indicator system.The newly issued curriculum standards for general technology discipline in 2017 put forward five specific objectives for the cultivation of core literacy of general technology discipline: technical awareness,engineering thinking,graphic expression,innovative design,and materialization ability.At present,how to implement core literacy in general technology teaching practice has become an important issue in general technology curriculum and teaching reform.The general technology course focuses on hands-on practice and learning by doing.It is a teaching mode that can meet the needs of cultivating students’ general technology core literacy in the classroom.Project based learning takes the project as the main line,allowing learners to experience practical operation and improve their ability through independent inquiry,which is consistent with the general technology curriculum.In order to study whether project-based learning can effectively achieve the goal of general technology curriculum and cultivate students’ core literacy,the author proposed the topic of design and practice of general technology project-based learning in the perspective of core literacy.This study first summarized the research status of core literacy and project-based learning at home and abroad through literature review,and explained the concept and process of project-based learning.Secondly,according to the core literacy training objectives of general technology disciplines,the project teaching model under the perspective of core literacy is constructed according to the general technology curriculum standards.The model includes six links: "determining the topic,planning the project,cooperative exploration,materializing works,exchanging experience,and summarizing evaluation".Then,combining the two parts of the general technology elective course of Jiangsu Education Press-Electronic Control Technology and elective course 9-Creativity Development and Technological Invention,the author designed the learning project of Colorful Lantern with this model,and designed an investigation questionnaire based on the five dimensions of the core quality of general technology and the content of the project.In the teaching practice,the experimental class and the control class conducted project-based learning and traditional learning respectively,and reflected the implementation effect of the project-based learning of the Colorful Lantern through questionnaires and interviews.From the questionnaire,it can be seen that the students who accept project-based learning perform well in engineering thinking,innovative design,and materialization ability.The students can achieve their learning goals.Through analysis,it can be concluded that the students trained by project-based learning are competent for innovative practice problems,and they need to strengthen their basic knowledge.From the interview records,it can be concluded that students have changed their thinking consciousness,gained confidence and achievements in project-based learning.Finally,the conclusions are drawn as follows:(1)project-based learning is conducive to achieving the goal of general technology curriculum in high school.(2)Project-based learning is helpful to cultivate students’ core literacy.(3)Project-based learning effectively promotes students’ interest in inquiry...
