把孩子培养成成功的学习者是苏格兰卓越课程的主要目标。本文介绍了一项为期八周的探索性实地研究的定性结果,在这项研究中,一个十岁的班级制作了自己的电脑游戏。分析的重点是课程中确定的成功学习的各个方面的发展:学习的热情和动力、达到高标准的决心、独立和小组学习,以及在新情况下联系和应用学习。由于教师在促进和支持学习者使用技术方面起着重要作用,文章最后讨论了对课堂实践的启示。(C)2007爱思唯尔有限公司。保留所有权利。
Developing children as successful learners is a key aim of A Curriculum for Excellence in Scotland. This paper presents qualitative results from an eight week exploratory field study in which a class of ten year olds made their own computer games. The analysis focuses on the development of aspects of successful learning as identified in the curriculum: enthusiasm and motivation for learning, determination to reach high standards of achievement, independent and group learning, and linking and applying learning in new situations. As teachers have an important role in facilitating and supporting learners as they use technology, the paper concludes with a discussion of implications for classroom practice. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.
