中文摘要
该项目改进了以前开发的入门物理材料,包括基于研究的工作表,这些工作表显示了学生在概念学习方面的巨大收获。该项目有一个出版商愿意以开源格式分发这些材料,使它们广泛适用于各种教育环境。此外,该项目还将其视频库中的带注释的视频片段连接起来,以协助助教有效地应用这些材料。这些教材的开发有三个方面有助于它们的成功:(1)系统地关注学生对知识和学习的看法;(2)根据学生的进度和需要对材料进行最后的调整;(3)注重帮助助教更好地关注和回应学生的思考,通常是通过使用背诵课中助教与学生互动的录像。通过使用体现这些方面的工作表,学生在以后的课程中不太可能回到被动学习(例如,从权威人士那里记忆信息)。工作表显示了概念上的收获,也显著提高了学生对知识和学习的看法。
英文摘要
This project refines previously developed materials for introductory physics including research-based worksheets that show large conceptual learning gains in students. The project has a publisher willing to distribute these materials in an open-source format making them widely adaptable in a variety of educational settings. Further, the project is linking annotated video clips from their video library to assist TA development in effectively applying these materials. Three aspects of the development of these materials contribute to their success: (1) systematic attention to students' views of knowledge and learning; (2) last-minute adjustments to materials based on students' progress and needs; and (3) attention to helping teaching assistants (TAs) become better at attending and responding to student thinking, often by using videotaped TA-student interactions from recitation sections. With the application of the worksheets embodying these aspects, students are less likely to revert to passive learning (e.g., memorizing information from authority) in later classes. The worksheets show conceptual gains and also significantly improved student views about knowledge and learning.
