课程描述
你是否喜欢教书，但又无奈地发现似乎学生没有学到什么？你是否想教书，但又担心是否能做得好？你对科学教育方面的最新研究感兴趣吗？有关科学教育的研究表明，学生学习最大的障碍是不能鉴别和正视先前形成的错误认识。这门课程每周进行一次讨论，旨在使学习者能够发现和解决学生的误解并培养学生对关键概念的理解和记忆。参与者阅读科学教育方面的重要文献，发现在生物学教学中经常被忽略的基本概念，并在组织生物学导论课的学生每周进行一次小讨论。
Do you like teaching, but find yourself frustrated by how little students seem to learn? Would you like to try teaching, but are nervous about whether you will be any good at it? Are you interested in new research on science education? Research in science education shows that the greatest obstacle to student learning is the failure to identify and confront the misconceptions with which the students enter the class or those that they acquire during their studies. This weekly seminar course focuses on developing the participants' ability to uncover and confront student misconceptions and to foster student understanding and retention of key concepts. Participants read primary literature on science education, uncover basic concepts often overlooked when teaching biology, and lead a small weekly discussion session for students currently enrolled in introductory biology classes.
