SCALE-UP项目为大规模招生课程建立了一个高度协作、动手、计算机丰富、互动的学习环境。课堂时间主要用于实践活动,模拟和有趣的问题以及假设驱动的实验室。学生们分成三组,每组三人,坐在圆桌旁。教师与团队和个人一起循环和工作,让他们参与苏格拉底式的对话。在制定课程的同时,对学习情况进行了严格的评估。我们的研究结果可以总结如下:解决问题的能力得到提高,概念理解增加,态度得到改善,失败率大幅降低(特别是女性和少数民族),后续物理和工程课程的表现受到积极影响
The SCALE-UP Project has established a highly collaborative, hands-on, computer-rich, interactive learning environment for large-enrollment courses. Class time is spent primarily on hands-on activities, simulations, and interesting questions as well as hypothesis-driven labs. Students sit in three groups of three students at round tables. Instructors circulate and work with teams and individuals, engaging them in Socratic-like dialogues. Rigorous evaluations of learning have been conducted in parallel with the curriculum development effort. Our findings can be summarized as follows: Ability to solve problems is improved, conceptual understanding is increased, attitudes are improved, failure rates are drastically reduced (especially for women and minorities), and performance in follow up physics and engineering classes is positively impacted
