通过“户外教学”、“博物馆教学”等以实践为基础的学习方式,孩子们以问题为载体,主动地探究问题、观察生活、自主获取知识,也培养了学生在如今多元文化的环境下如何有效地利用身边有形和无形的资源。
Classes carried out in parks or museums develop more comprehensive skills. From asking questions and observing the environment, children learn how to effectively take advantage of different forms of resources to understand the world around them.
户外教学,尤其是在疫情之后,创造了多感官联觉学习的机会,孩子们能够在有效、低人员密度、健康免疫、高频度、跨年龄参与的真实世界互动中,对长时间电子设备应用、长期隔离、家庭互动紧张所造成的“社交隔离综合症“进行修复。走向户外,也是让孩子们看到书本外的真实世界,离开现代生活的枷锁,沉浸在由不同生态组成的自然世界,激发孩子们对环境和自然的探索和想象,启发孩子们对于环境保护的认识。
In post-pandemic era, outdoor learning creates opportunities for multi-sensory learning. Children can recover from obsession with Internet and social distancing, participating in face-to-face communication with the real world under a low-density, healthy, and multi-cultural context. Going into the fields also allows children to see the world outside of the textbooks, to leave the shackles of modern life, and to immerse themselves in the nature. It inspires children to explore the ecosystem and envision different possibilities to protect our environment.
博物馆教学将“博物馆”作为主要教学地点。孩子们近距离参观博物馆,增强了对收藏品的好奇心和兴趣。不同藏品或者历史物料的展览和收藏能反映和教授不同的学习内容。通过了解博物馆物件的摆放,孩子们可以学习合理地规划学习生活和方式。同时,也能启发老师们对全新、有效的教学方式的灵感。博物馆教学培养了孩子们主动学习的能力。从中,他们针于艺术品提出问题,思考和讨论疑问,做出独具慧眼的判断,并寻求自己与展品的个人联系。当人们积极参与和体验身边的事物和吸取信息时,他们会学得更深,学习时间更长。博物馆里,孩子不被旧有的教育框架所限制,他们能在馆内随意地走动,探索知识。他们可以自由地选择观看展品,或者是听语音导览。但博物馆的选择也不是无限的,他们也需要遵守某些必要的规矩。例如,不能在馆内吃东西.综上,通过参观博物馆,孩子们可以锻炼自己的研究、观察、批判性思维、对话、沉思等能力,创造独特的学习体验。
Museum teaching takes place in "museums.“ Children learn from and experience museum closely and intimately. They develop curiosity. Artworks also reflect the views and values of different museums. From the placement of exhibits, children can learn, in similar ways, how to plan their study life. They ask questions about the artwork, reflect on their own thoughts and impressions, make unique judgments, construct own interpretations, and seek personal connections between themselves and the exhibits. At the same time, teachers would also gain inspiration for new learning methodologies. When people actively participate in things around them and absorb information, they will learn more deeply and form a firmer memory. Children are more motivated since they are less restricted by the physical boundary of classroom as a carrier of education. They can walk around the museum freely and explore whatever interests them. But the choices of museums are not unlimited. They need to abide by certain rules. For example, you cannot eat in the hall. Thus, from museum education, children can carry out professional research, observation, develop critical thinking skills.
