本文报告了通过增加学生的参与,使大型(和小型)讲座的学习环境更有效的一般策略。自1989年以来,我们已经在物理导论讲座中使用并评估了基于微机的交互式讲座演示(ILDs)的有效性,并发现它们在教授物理概念方面非常成功。ILDs由一系列概念上简单的物理实验组成,使用基于微电脑的科学思维工具实验室(MBL)工具。学生们通过使用一个学习周期积极参与其中,包括对实际物理实验结果的书面预测,与最近的邻居进行小组讨论,使用MBL工具实时观察物理事件,并将观察结果与预测进行比较。这一策略的发展是基于物理教育研究的成果和我们在引导发现实验室课程中的经验。
This paper reports on a general strategy for making the learning environment in large (and small) lectures more effective by increasing student involvement. We have used and evaluated the effectiveness of Microcomputer-Based Interactive Lecture Demonstrations (ILDs) in introductory physics lectures since 1989 and have found them to be very successful for teaching physical concepts. The ILDs consist of a sequence of conceptually simple physical experiments using the Tools for Scientific Thinking microcomputer-based laboratory (MBL) tools. Students are actively engaged by the use of a learning cycle which includes a written prediction of the results of an actual physical experiment, small group discussion with their nearest neighbors, observation of the physical event in real time with the MBL tools, and comparison of observations with predictions. The development of this strategy has been based on the outcomes of physics education research and on our experiences with guided discovery laboratory curricula u...
