人口老龄化是世界范围内的普遍现象。在这些人口结构变化的同时,数字设备的重大突破也影响了这个数字时代。设计教学策略以促进老年学习者的有意义的学习一直是一个长期的挑战。为了提高老年人的终身学习体验,在老年人学习的过程中实施教学策略有助于提高学习效率。尽管在这一领域的研究呼声很高,但仍没有足够的研究系统地回顾现有的关于老年人学习需求和偏好的文献。因此,本文对利用数字技术为老年学习者设计的教学策略的有效性进行了系统的文献综述。审查遵循出版标准,即ROSE(系统性证据合成报告标准)。这项研究涉及从两个已建立的数据库Web of Science和Scope us中挑选的文章。然后利用专题分析对文章中的数据进行了分析,得出了六个主题:(1)协作学习;(2)非正式学习环境;(3)教具;(4)针对性;(5)课程设计;(6)获取和提供反馈。这六个主要主题又产生了15个副主题。本研究的结果在教学设计和老年学领域有重要的贡献。这项研究的结果强调了数字技术教学的几个重要策略,特别是对老年人来说,如下:(1)根据老年学习者的需要和偏好,在教学中加强数字技术教学设计的使用;(2)强调老年人学习数字技术的因素和影响。
An ageing population is a universal phenomenon experienced worldwide. In parallel with these demographic changes, a significant breakthrough in digital devices has also influenced this digital age. Designing instructional strategies to promote meaningful learning among older adult learners has been a long-standing challenge. To enhance older adults’ life-long learning experiences, implementing instructional strategies in the process through which such adults learn can help to improve effective learning. Despite significant calls for research in this area, there is still insufficient research that systematically reviews the existing literature on older adult learning needs and preferences. Hence, in the present article, a systematic literature review was conducted of the effectiveness of instructional strategies designed for older adult learners through the use of digital technologies. The review was guided by the publication standard, which is ROSES (Reporting Standard for Systematic Evidence Syntheses). This study involves articles selected from two established databases, Web of Science and Scopus. Data from the articles were then analysed using the thematic analysis, which resulted in six main themes: (1) collaborative learning; (2) informal learning setting; (3) teaching aids; (4) pertinence; (5) lesson design; and (6) obtaining and providing feedback. The six main themes produced a further 15 sub-themes. The results from this study make significant contributions in the areas of instructional design and gerontology. The findings from this study highlight several important strategies of teaching digital technology, particularly for older adults, as follows: (1) to enhance instructional design use in teaching digital technology based on the needs and preferences of older adult learners; and (2) to highlight the factors for, and impact of, learning digital technologies among older adults.
