with others.

I am sure I will cherish my relationship with my fellow students, especially with my roommates, in the years to come.(130 words)

Lesson One: The Time Message Elwood N, Chapman 新的学习任务开始之际,千头万绪,最重要的是安排好时间,做时间的主人。本文作者提出了7点具体建议,或许对你有所启迪。 1 Time is tricky. It is difficult to control and easy to waste. When you look a head, you think you have more time than you need. For Example,at the beginning of a semester, you may feel that you have plenty of time on your hands, but toward the end of the term you may suddenly find that time is running out. You don't have enough time to cover all your duties (duty), so you get worried. What is the answer? Control! 译:时间真是不好对付,既难以控制好,又很容易浪费掉,当你向前看时,你觉得你的时间用不完。例如,在一个学期的开始,你或许觉得你有许多时间,但到学期快要结束时,你会突然发现时间快用光了,你甚至找不出时间把所有你必须干的事情干完,这样你就紧张了。答案是什么呢?控制。 2 Time is dangerous. If you don't control it, it will control you. I f you don't make it work fo r you, it will work against you. So you must become the master of time, not its servant. As a first-year college student, time management will be your number one Problem. 译:时间是危险的,如果你控制不了时间,时间就会控制你,如果你不能让时间为你服务,它就会起反作用。所以,你必须成为时间的主人,而不是它的奴仆,作为刚入学的大学生,妥善安排时间是你的头等大事。 3 Time is valuable. Wasting time is a bad habit. It is like a drug. The more time you waste,the easier it is to go on wasting time. If seriously wish to get the most out of college, you must put the time message into practice. 译:时间是珍贵的,浪费时间是个坏习惯,这就像毒品一样,你越浪费时间,就越容易继续浪费下去,如果你真的想充分利用上大学的机会,你就应该把利用时间的要旨付诸实践。 Message1. Control time from the beginning. 4 Time is today, not tomorrow or next week. Start your plan at the Beginning of the term. 译:抓紧时间就是抓紧当前的时间,不要把事情推到明天或是下周,在学期开始就开始计划。 Message2. Get the notebook habit. 5 Go and buy a notebook today, Use it to plan your study time each day. Once a weekly study plan is prepared, follow the same pattern every week with small changes. Sunday is a good day to make the Plan for the following week.

新职业英语·职业综合英语课文翻译 第一课谷歌 上过互联网的人都见过谷歌,许多人要在互联网上查找某方面的信息时,他们都会去“谷歌”一下。作为全世界最有名的互联网搜索引擎,谷歌是网络业界功成名就的最好范例之一。 谷歌始于1996年1月斯坦福大学博士生拉里?佩奇的一个研究项目。为了找到一种能帮助网络用户搜索到相关网页的更好方法,佩奇设想可以通过检索网页之间的关系来实现。他认为其他网页链接最多的那些网页一定是最受欢迎的,这项技术结果看起来是成功的。 佩奇和他的合作伙伴谢尔盖?布林于1998年9月7日创建了自己的公司,并在之后的一周注册了https://www.sodocs.net/doc/b23778079.html,这一网址。这个搜索引擎很快声名鹊起,2000年谷歌开始在自己的网站出售广告。在投资者的热情资助下,经过几年的发展,谷歌上市了,谷歌的很多雇员一夜之间成了百万富翁。 谷歌最近收购了互联网最大的视频共享网站https://www.sodocs.net/doc/b23778079.html,,而且每天都在不断增加一些新功能,如工具栏、邮件和广告。当然,成长与成功也带来了竞争。微软最近就试图收购雅虎以便能在互联网搜索引擎领域与谷歌抗衡。 随着公司的壮大与知名度的提高,谷歌在美国公司就业吸引力的排名也上升到第一。他们尝试打破传统的办公室设计,努力把办公室变成员工感觉舒适、并能充分发挥自己才华的地方。 现在,谷歌已拥有YouTube、Blogger和其他一些热门网站,并且成为网络广告收入方面的领头羊。当初两个学生的一个小点子已发展成为一家拥有十亿美元资产的大公司,谷歌也成为全球最著名的商标之一。谷歌的发展史为当今的网络企业家树立了一个完美的典范,也提供了灵感。 第二课秘书 秘书可能会有很多其他不同的头衔,例如行政助理、文员或私人助理。尽管所有这些头衔都以行政工作为主旨,但它们却反映了不同种类的秘书工作。秘书岗位十分古老,例如,古希腊和罗马的商人和政客们就曾雇用私人秘书和文员来管理他们的事务。 秘书的工作就是使办公室顺利运转。秘书的职责范围很广,依据他们所在办公室的不同而各异。就最低要求来说,秘书要处理信函,跟踪日程安排,管理文件系统,操作电话、传真机、复印机等办公设备。许多秘书还要接听电话,并将其转给适当的人员。有些秘书还要负责办公室用品的采购,他们也可能会处理预算、簿记和人事文档。秘书应当具备使用电脑和其他电子设备的经验,因为他们将处理大量的电子资料,包括往来信函。

human creations, language may be the most remarkable. Through language we share experience, values, exchange ideas, transmit knowledge, and sustain culture. Indeed, language is vital to sense of reality by giving meaning to events. 在人类所有的创造中,语言也许是影响最为深远的。我们用语言来分享经验,表达(传递?)价值观,交换想法,传播知识,传承文化。事实上,对语言本身的思考也是至关重要的。和通常所认为的不同的是,语言并不只是简单地反映现实,语言在具体描述事件的时候也在帮助我们建立对现实的感知。——语序的调整。 Good speakers have respect for language and know how it works. Words are the tools of a speaker?s craft. They have special uses, just like the tools of any other profession. As a speaker, you should be aware of the meaning of words and know how to use language accurately, clearly,vividly,and appropriately. 好的演讲者对语言很重视,也知道如何让它发挥更好的效果。词语是演讲者演讲的重要“武器”,具有特殊的用途,这和任何其他的工作技艺没什么两样。作为演讲者,必须知道词语的具体含义,也要懂得如何做到用词准确、清晰、生动、适当。 Using language accurately is as vital to a speaker as using numbers accurately to a accountant. Never use a word unless you are sure of its meaning. If you are not sure, look up the word in the dictionary. As you prepare your speeches, ask yourself constantly, “What do I really want to say? What do I really mean?” Choose words that are precise and accurate. 演讲者准确地使用语言和会计准确使用数字是一样重要的。确定词意后再措词。如果不确定,请先查词典。当你在准备演讲的时候,要不断地问自己:“我到底要说什么?我到底想表达什么意思?”用词一定要精准。 Using language clearly allows listeners to grasp your meaning immediately. You can ensure this [by using familiar words (that are known to the average person and require no specialized background); by choosing concrete words in preference to more abstract ones, and by eliminating verbal clutter]. 用词清晰可以让听众迅速理解你的意思(抓到你的点)。要做到这一点,就要尽量使用一般人都熟悉的不需要专业知识就能懂的词语;多用具象词汇少用抽象词汇;还有要减少口误。 Using language vividly helps bring your speech to life. One way (to make your speech vivid)|is through imagery,or the creation of word pictures. You can develop imagery by using concrete language, simile, and metaphor. Simile is an explicit comparison between things (that are essentially different yet have something in common); it always contains the words “like”or “as”. Metaphor is an impli cit comparison between things that are different yet have something in common; it does not contain the words “like” or “as”. 生动地用词能让演讲鲜活起来!比喻,这种能产生文字图像的修辞,可以使演讲达到生动的效果。比喻要用具象的语言,分为明喻和隐喻。 明喻是指在本质上有区别但仍然有相同点的事物之间做一个明确的比较,一般句中会含有“像”或“似”。隐喻则是一种隐藏的比较,不会出现like 和as 这些连接词。 Another way to make your speeches vivid is by exploiting the rhythm of language. Four devices for creating rhythm are parallelism, repetition, alliteration, and antithesis. Parallelism is the similar arrangement of a pair or series of related words, phrases, or sentences. Repetition is the use of the same word or set of words at the beginning or end of successive clauses or sentences. Alliteration comes from repeating the initial constant sounds of close or adjoining words. Antithesis is the juxtaposition of

小学综合实践活动课

小学综合实践活动课教学之我见 综合实践活动是一门新的课程。它具有开放性、自主性、生成性、实践性的特点,极富现代教育的时代特征。然而它作为一个新的稚生事物,在实施的过程中难免会遇到教师理解偏差,课堂观念陈旧、结构老化,缺少教学内容等诸多的问题,这就需要我们边实践边反思,边探索边总结,努力开创新局面。 一、激发学习兴趣是上好综合实践活动课的前提。 “兴趣是最好的教师”,如何激发学生学习综合实践活动课的兴趣,渠道是多种多样的。如开展“乐阅千卷,悦纳百家,健康成长”这一主题活动时,首先,让学生了解新课标对小学高年级学生阅读量的要求,向学生介绍读书的好处,讲鲁迅等名人读书的故事,并积极开展多种形式的读书交流活动,结合语文教材引导学生读书的方向,提高学生的读书兴趣。活动中,进行诵读古诗词或交流名著赏读,推荐经典的名句或心得。通过摘抄成语、名言、佳句等方式做读书笔记和阶段性地制作图文并茂的手抄报或小书签、剪贴报,调动学生阅读的内需,并用于布置教室,以进一步调动学生读书用书的积极性。 二、各组开展探究活动提高实践能力。 随着活动的开展,须不断修正方案,调整活动方式,使活动得以顺利进行。在老师的指导下,各小组要及时将所调查访问到的内容集中起来,并进行分类处理,准备在交流。如在教学“走近生命之源——水”时,各小组开展对“走近生命之源——水”的探究实践活动时,发给学生“自我评价表”。各小组通过采访、问卷调查、查阅资料、讨论等方式完成活动任务,丰富知识,为汇报展示作准备。 三行展示会进行活动成果展示提高素养。新课程改革目标之一:倡导建构性的学习、全人的教育。改变过于强调接受学习、死记硬背、机械训练的现状,提倡学生主动参与、乐于探究、勤于动手,培养学生搜集和处理信息的能力、获取新知识的能力、分析和解决问题的能力,以及交流与合作的能力,强调形成积极主动的学习态度,使获得知识与技能的过程成为学会学习和形成正确价值观的过程。学生生生互动,师生互动。 通常有压力就有动力,有检查就有促进。在开展“乐阅千卷,悦纳百家,健康成长”这一主题活动时,为了推动学生读更多的书,活动中充分利用班级墙报,及时将学生的读书笔记展示出来,表扬先进,激励后进。同时,每学期评比两次“阅读之星”。平时,对读书摘录做得好的同学奖励小红花,评比班级“百花少年”。活动中通过举办“我读书我快乐”、“古诗朗 诵会”“故事会”等读书交流活动,向同学们介绍看过的书,交流自己在活动中的心得体会,在班 级中形成良好的读书氛围。而且通过练笔写读书笔记,汇报对所读过的书的认识,让学生在评比优秀读书笔记中,感受到读书的了处,提高综合能力。在教学“走近生命之源——水”时,各小组经过一段时间的深入调查探究,学生对水有了进一步的认识,并对资料整理分析,通过展示会分组展示成果,通过交流,学生对水有了一定的全面认识。在综合实践活动过程中提高了学生搜集、处理信息的能力,锻炼实践能力,激发创造潜能。 四、活动评价促成长。 新课程改革中提出要确立正确的评价观,改变过分强调评价的甄别与选拔的功能,发挥评价促进学生发展、教师提高和改进教学实践的功能。教师、学生、家长等评价者对学生参与学习活动的态度、形式及效果进行定性与定量相结合、过程评价与终结评价相结合等评价。启发引领学生及时交流并记录自己的感悟和体验,促进活动更好地完成。养学生搜集信息和处理信息的能力,能充分地将课本内容、课外知识、现代信息有机融合,扩充个体信息容量,促进主体充分参与,使学生真正成为学习主人。

新标准大学综合英语2 unit1 课文翻译

NUIT1 大学已经不再特别了 有这么一种说法:“要是你能记得20世纪60年代的任何事情,你就没有真正经历过那段岁月。”对于在大麻烟雾中度过大学时光的那些人,这话可能是真的。但是,20世纪60年代有一件事人人都记得,那就是:上大学是你一生中最激动人心、最刺激的经历。 20世纪60年代,加州的高校把本州变成了世界第七大经济实体。然而,加州大学的主校园伯克利分校也以学生示威、罢课以及激进的政治氛围而著名。1966年,罗纳德?里根竞选加州州长,他问加州是否允许“一所伟大的大学被喧闹的、唱反调的少数人征服。”自由派人士回答说,大学之所以伟大正是因为它们有能力容忍喧闹的、唱反调的少数人。 在欧洲的大学校园里,大学生以新的姿态和激情投入到争取自由和正义的事业中去,大规模的社会主义或共产主义运动引发了他们与当权者之间日益升级的暴力冲突。许多抗议是针对越南战争的。可是在法国,巴黎大学的学生与工会联盟,发动了一场大罢工,最终导致戴高乐总统辞职。 20世纪60年代大学生活的特点并不仅仅是激进的行动。不论在什么地方,上大学都意味着你初次品尝真正自由的滋味,初次品尝深更半夜在宿舍或学生活动室里讨论人生意义的滋味。你往往得上了大学才能阅读你的第一本禁书,看你的第一部独立影人电影,或者找到和你一样痴迷吉米?亨德里克斯或兰尼?布鲁斯的志同道合者。那是一段难以想象的自由时光,你一生中最无拘无束的时光。 可如今那份激情哪儿去了?大学怎么了?现在,政治、社会和创造意识的觉醒似乎不是凭借大学的助力,而是冲破其阻力才发生的。当然,一点不假,高等教育仍然重要。例如,在英国,布莱尔首相几乎实现了到2010年让50%的30岁以下的人上大学的目标(即使愤世嫉俗的人会说,这是要把他们排除在失业统计数据之外)。不过,大学教育已不再是全民重视的话题了。如今,大学被视为人们急于逃离的一种小城镇。有些人辍学,但大多数已经有些麻木,还是坚持混到毕业,因为离开学校实在是太费事了。 没有了20世纪60年代大学生所发现的令人头脑发热的自由气氛,如今的大学生要严肃得多。英国文化协会最近做了一项调查,研究外国留学生在决定上哪所大学时所考虑的因素。这些因素从高到低依次是:课程质量、就业前景、学费负担、人身安全问题、生活方式,以及各种便利。大学已变成实现目的的手段,是在就业市场上增加就业几率的一个机会,上大学本身不再是目的,不再是给你提供一个机会,让你暂时想象一下:你能够改变世界。 童年与大学之间的距离已缩小了,大学与现实世界之间的距离也缩小了。其中的一个原因可能和经济有关。在一个没有保障的世界里,现在的许多孩子依赖父母资助的时间比以前的孩子更长。21世纪的学生大学毕业后根本无法自立门户,因为那太昂贵了。另一个可能的原因是通讯革命。儿子或女儿每学期往家里打一两回电话的日子一去不复返了。如今,大学生通过手机与父母保持着脐带式联系。至于寻找痴迷无名文学或音乐的同道好友,没问题,我们有互联网和聊天室来帮助我们做到这一点。

Unit 1 Changes in the Way We Live 在美国,不少人对乡村生活怀有浪漫的情感。许多居住在城镇的人梦想着自己办个农场,梦想着靠土地为生。很少有人真去把梦想变为现实。或许这也没有什么不好,因为,正如吉姆·多尔蒂当初开始其写作和农场经营双重生涯时所体验到的那样,农耕生活远非轻松自在。但他写道,自己并不后悔,对自己作出的改变生活方式的决定仍热情不减。 Mr. Doherty Builds His Dream Life Jim Doherty 有两件事是我一直想做的――写作与务农。如今我同时做着这两件事。作为作家,我和E·B·怀特不属同一等级,作为农场主,我和乡邻也不是同一类人,不过我应付得还行。在城市以及郊区历经多年的怅惘失望之后,我和妻子桑迪终于在这里的乡村寻觅到心灵的满足。 这是一种自力更生的生活。我们食用的果蔬几乎都是自己种的。自家饲养的鸡提供鸡蛋,每星期还能剩余几十个出售。自家养殖的蜜蜂提供蜂蜜,我们还自己动手砍柴,足可供过冬取暖之用。 这也是一种令人满足的生活。夏日里我们在河上荡舟,在林子里野餐,骑着自行车长时间漫游。冬日里我们滑雪溜冰。我们为落日的余辉而激动。我们爱闻大地回暖的气息,爱听牛群哞叫。我们守着看鹰儿飞过上空,看玉米田间鹿群嬉跃。 但如此美妙的生活有时会变得相当艰苦。就在三个月前,气温降

到华氏零下30度,我们辛苦劳作了整整两天,用一个雪橇沿着河边拖运木柴。再过三个月,气温会升到95度,我们就要给玉米松土,在草莓地除草,还要宰杀家禽。前一阵子我和桑迪不得不翻修后屋顶。过些时候,四个孩子中的两个小的,16岁的吉米和13岁的埃米莉,会帮着我一起把拖了很久没修的室外厕所修葺一下,那是专为室外干活修建的。这个月晚些时候,我们要给果树喷洒药水,要油漆谷仓,要给菜园播种,要赶在新的小鸡运到之前清扫鸡舍。 在这些活计之间,我每周要抽空花五、六十个小时,不是打字撰文,就是为作为自由撰稿人投给报刊的文章进行采访。桑迪则有她自己繁忙的工作日程。除了日常的家务,她还照管菜园和蜂房,烘烤面包,将食品装罐、冷藏,开车送孩子学音乐,和他们一起练习,自己还要上风琴课,为我做些研究工作并打字,自己有时也写写文章,还要侍弄花圃,堆摞木柴、运送鸡蛋。正如老话说的那样,在这种情形之下,坏人不得闲――贤德之人也歇不了。 我们谁也不会忘记第一年的冬天。从12月一直到3月底,我们都被深达5英尺的积雪困着。暴风雪肆虐,一场接着一场,积雪厚厚地覆盖着屋子和谷仓,而室内,我们用自己砍伐的木柴烧火取暖,吃着自家种植的苹果,温馨快乐每一分钟。 开春后,有过两次泛滥。一次是河水外溢,我们不少田地被淹了几个星期。接着一次是生长季节到了,一波又一波的农产品潮涌而来,弄得我们应接不暇。我们的冰箱里塞满了樱桃、蓝莓、草莓、芦笋、豌豆、青豆和玉米。接着我们存放食品罐的架子上、柜橱里也开始堆

Unit1如何发表演说斯蒂芬·卢卡斯 1.在人类创造的万物中,语言可能是最卓越的一项创造。通过语言,我们可以分享经验、阐明价值观念、交流思想、传播知识、传承文化。确实,语言对于思想本身至关重要。和流行的信仰不同的是:语言并不是简单地反映事实,而是通过对事件意义的思考来帮助人们感悟现实。 2.优秀的演说者尊重语言并懂得如何驾驭语言。语言是演说者展示才能的工具,对于他们来说,如同其他职业的工具一样,语言也有特殊的功用。作为一名演说者,你应该意识到话语的意义,并懂得如何准确无误地使用语言,使其表达清楚,趣味横生,恰如其分。 3.如同数字对于会计的重要性一样,准确地使用语言对于演说者至关重要。在没有确切知道一个词语的意思之前,千万不要盲目使用。碰到没有把握的词语,一定要查词典追根究底。当你准备演讲之前,一定要不断地问自己:“我究竟想说些什么?我究竟想表达什么样的意思?”因此,对于一篇演讲稿的用词来说,必须准确无误。 4.语言表达清楚无误,听众就能很快抓住你的意思。鉴于此,演说者应该使用那些对于大多数人来说非常熟悉的词语,这些词语不需要任何专业背景就能够理解;演说者应该使用那些表达具体而不是相对抽象的词语;并且千万不要乱堆砌辞藻,哗众取宠。 5.准确生动地使用语言能够使你的演说贴近生活。有一种方法可以使你的语言更加生动形象,那就是通过展开联想或创造语言图示。通过使用表达具体的词语、明喻或者暗喻等手法可以展开想象。明喻是对事物不同之处的比较,不过有些是相同的:它们总是包含“像……一样”或者“如同……一样”这样的连词。暗喻是一种隐性的比喻,它能够把两个形式不同但是有一些相通之处的事物联系在一起,暗喻不包含“像……一样”或者“如同……一样”这样的连词。 6.另一种让你的演说生动形象的方法是注重语言的节奏感。有四种修辞格可以让你的语言富有节奏感:排比、重复、头韵和对比。排比是将一组或一系列具有相似结构的词语、短语或者句子排列在一起;重复是在一系列短句或者长句的开头或者结尾使用相同的一句话或者一组词语;头韵是指邻近或者相邻的几个句子中的首个词语的辅音字母相同;对比是将一些意思相反的词语或者句子并列在一起,通常使用排比结构。 7.恰当地使用语言是指语言的运用要符合特定的场合、特定的观众和特定的主题。同时,恰当地使用语言还意味着演说者要有自己的语言风格,而不是模仿他人的口吻。如果演说者的语言在各个方面都能够做到恰如其分,那么这篇演说成功的机率就会大大提高。 8.优秀的演说并不是空穴来风、缺乏论据的决断。演说者必须找到强有力的论据来支持其观点。实际上,熟练地使用论据经常是区别一篇优秀演说词和一篇空洞演说词的关键所在。一般来说,通常有三种论据材料:事例、统计数据和证词。 9.在演说过程中,你可以使用一些简明扼要的例子——比如过去发生的一个很具体的事件——有时候,你可以罗列好几个简明的例子,借此增强听众的印象。扩展性的例子——描述、

EasySysprep4统封装图文教程

(一)备份当前操作系统 封装的第一步,其实是备份当前安装好的操作系统。避免我们在之后的步骤中出现问题,以至于还要重新安装操作系统,浪费时间精力。 系统备份想必大家都会。对于WinXP而言,建议使用Ghost备份。推荐使用U盘装机助理中的Easy Image X 执行Ghost备份操作,Easy Image X 具有图形化操作、便于设置压缩率等特点。 提醒大家要注意的是,我们现在是备份系统以备不时之需,而并非封装完毕后制作系统映像,所以压缩率不用调整的过高,以免浪费更多的备份和恢复时间。压缩率建议选择“快速压缩”,体积略大,但备份和恢复速度都很快。设置完毕后,Ghost备份过程自动启动。

2013-1-22 14:15 上传 下载附件(125.39 KB) 稍事等待后,系统备份完毕。 (二)封装前的准备 封装的目的,是为了快速的部署操作系统,减少不必要的重复劳动。所以,我们需要向源系统集成系统补丁、安装常用软件,从而减少每次部署后的重复劳动。 1、集成系统补丁。集成补丁的方法有很多,例如使用Windows Update、使用第三方安全软件、使用第三方补丁包等。这里推荐大家选用IT天空系统补丁安装助理,一次性安装所有重要补丁。

2、安装常用软件。常用软件常用的一般也就几种,大家请根据自己的系统部署范围而决定。

特别提醒 (1)不是所有的软件都能良好适应系统封装部署,特别是某些国产软件; (2)需要激活的软件,部署完毕后一般都需要重新激活; (3)不建议集成安全类软件,某些安全软件会阻挡正常的系统部署进程,甚至导致蓝屏宕机; (4)如果某些软件不适合集成在系统,可以使用首次进桌面静默安装的方法来解决。 3、备份系统。又备份系统?对,备份。补丁安装要20分钟左右,软件也需要逐个安装与调整,所以整体时间一般不少于30分钟。为防止封装时出现未知错误,建议再次备份系统,以备今后的调整操作。这次备份完,我们就可以放心大胆的开始封装操作了。

小学综合实践活动课程标准

小学综合实践活动课程标准 第一节课程的本质与定位 一、课程的本质。 综合实践活动课程是一种超越了学科领域的框架,且相对独立的课程组织形态。它将儿童本位教育与社会本位教育相结合,以学生为主体,以综合体为学习对象,以“问题学习”、“履历学习”、“合作交流学习”、“柔韧学习”等为基本学习方式,以培养学生自我发现课题、自主探究课题、综合解决问题的精神、资质和能力为宗旨,经过学生主体性的、创造性的学习活动,将教与学、内容与形式、感情与活动、个体与群体、课内与课外、自然性和社会性、科学性与人文性有机地结合起来,使学生积累和丰富更多的直接经验,促进学生综合素质的形成和提高,培养学生的创新精神和实践能力,为学生的终身学习打下良好的基础。 二、课程的定位。 1、它与学科课程并列。 综合实践活动课程是一门独立的课程,在新的基础教育课程体系中,它是综合程度最高的课程形态。它在学习系统结构、实践方法和手段等方面有着与学科课程质的不同。 2、它与学科课程相互补充、相得益彰,不能相互替代。 在实践综合实践活动课程时要注意防止两种错误倾向:既要防止教学活动游离于学科理性,而步入学习的经验主义误区;又要防止学科的知识和系统教学活动的束缚,而局限在简单层次上的学科教学的重复和凑合。要及时补足学科教学的缺损。 第二节课程开发的主要观点和基本原理 1、教育学原理 ①大教育学原理。大教育观依据社会未来发展和科学技术未来发展的趋向,坚持认为教育应该是一个多样的、开放的、综合的大系统。当今知识“爆炸”,并且“日新

月异”,因此教育应当时间长、空间广、内容多、效率高。时间长,空间广。是强调实行终身教育并发展各类教育。而内容多是强调发展xx教育,让学生建立合理的知识结构,通过广泛的自然科学、社会科学以及各种专业教育,培养学生的创造力和综合思维能力。效率高则是指教育不但要为儿童未来的社会实践与文化创造作文化知识的准备,更要作学力发展的准备。强调使学生掌握具有“生成性”的各种方法性知识。这些方法性知识包括信息收集和交流的方法、调查与访问的方法、统计测量的方法、发表和讨论的方法,自我评价和相互评价的方法等等。基于以上认识,本课程努力拓展教育时空,使学习与学校外的学习和终身学习紧密地联系起来。例如,课程教材在开发时注意内容的引伸性,教育途径上想方设法与广播、电视、戏剧、报刊、图书、讲座等社会教育进行有效的链接。其次,本课程致力于实现内容性知识向方法性知识的重心转移,以及单一学习向综合学习的转变。? ②情境教学原理。情境包含主观情境和客观情境。主观情境即针对儿童特点,运用图画、音乐、表演等艺术的直观或现实生活中的典型场景,所创造的一种“亲、助、乐”的xx人际情境和“xx、智、趣”的学习情境。促使儿童以最佳情绪状态,主动投入、参与到学习当中,获得主动发展。客观情境是指含有真实事件或真实问题的情境。在客观情境中,由于每一个真实问题的解决不仅需要得到学习者经验背景的支持,也需要运用多种概念、原理。因此,本教材力求弱化或打破不同学科间的界限,强调学科间的相互渗透、联系、整合。其次,客观情境中的各种事件与问题是学生要完成的“真实性任务”,由于这些事件和问题本身的复杂性,以及他们永远处于一个发生、发展的变化过程中,因此,教师和学生在对事件和问题的综合探究过程中,必然会衍生出新的问题情境,即新生出许多潜在的学习机会,使自己进一步发展和完善有意义的知识和技能。于是,教学内部和进程就变固定不变的静态的教育载体为不断变化的动态的有机的整体,
