A Study Of Teacher-Student Interaction Behavior In Smart Classroom From The Perspective Of Symbolic Interaction Theory

Smart classroom is the inevitable result of focusing on teaching,classroom and teacher-student activities in the "Internet+" era of school education informatization,which is the new normal of school education in the information era.Effective teacher-student interaction in the classroom can stimulate students’ interest in learning,improve learning quality,enliven the classroom atmosphere,and bring teachers and students closer together.Whether the teacher-student interaction is effective or not determines whether the teaching objectives can be achieved,so the study of teacher-student interaction behavior in smart classrooms is especially necessary.A review of the existing literature reveals that most of the existing studies simplify and fragment the teacher-student interaction and fail to analyze the rich connotation and dynamic process of student-teacher interaction.Based on this,this study uses symbolic interaction theory as the theoretical basis,and analyzes teacher-student interaction behavior in smart classrooms with two methods: quantitative research and qualitative research,in order to explore the rich connotation of teacher-student interaction behavior in smart classrooms and provide reference for front-line teachers to improve the quality of teacher-student interaction and teaching effectiveness.First,the core concepts of this study are defined to determine the theoretical basis of this study.The connotation of symbolic interaction and the appropriateness of symbolic interaction to the elements of teacher-student interaction are clarified,the process of teacher-student interaction under the theory of symbolic interaction is analyzed,and the teacher-student interaction in the smart classroom is divided into four dimensions: subject,mode,content,and environment.Then,30 excellent lessons were selected as the research objects of this study,and a teacher-student interaction analysis system was designed based on the existing teacher-student interaction analysis system to meet the characteristics of the smart classroom,and the selected lessons were processed using this analysis system as the data for the next quantitative analysis.Then,the teacher-student interaction behavior was analyzed from both quantitative and qualitative aspects:the quantitative study analyzed the overall structure of the smart classroom,the subjects of teacher-student interaction,the content of teacher-student interaction,and the atmosphere of teacher-student interaction through the teacher-student verbal interaction ratio,the teacher-student interaction matrix,and the dynamic line graph of the teacher-student interaction ratio;the qualitative study analyzed the cases to observe the non-verbal interaction and spatial interaction of teachers and students.Finally,we summarize the teacher-student interaction in smart classroom in four dimensions: interaction subject,interaction mode,interaction content,and interaction environment,and find that teacher-student interaction in smart classroom is more active in students,more flexible and diverse in interaction mode,more diverse in interaction context,and more significant in the role of environment on interaction compared with traditional classroom.However,teacher-student interaction in smart classrooms also has the phenomena of teachers’ symbols controlling students’ symbols,mechanized forms of interaction with shallow content,solidified knowledge content and lack of emotional content,and environment neglecting student-centeredness.To address these problems,this study gives suggestions to optimize teacher-student interaction behaviors in each of four dimensions: in terms of interaction subjects,teachers should improve their teaching behaviors and focus on professional development;in terms of interaction methods,they should make good use of smart classrooms and optimize teaching questions;in terms of interaction content,they should optimize cognitive interaction and promote emotional interaction;and in terms of interaction environment,they should upgrade classroom space and create living situations.
