• 浏览(或冲浪)——这是大多数学生已经大量运用的一项技能,其特点是先有一个大致的
初始探究方向,接下来却会随意偏离到任何其它方向去探索。浏览的问题是,当需要进行
方向性较强的研究时,偏离方向的情况却常常发生。
• 保持意识——这更多的是一项批判性素养技能,基本的意思是要能够意识到在我们的环境
中推送而来的所有信息,对其进行扫视,看其是否相关,但无需专门或直接关注它。大学
预科项目语言与文学课程的一部分任务,就是鼓励学生发展这一技能。
• 搜索——通过普通类型的搜索引擎(谷歌、雅虎)和更为专业或学术类型的搜索引擎(大
学图书馆、商业数据库、谷歌学术搜索),利用布尔运算符和搜索限制器来优化搜索。
• 观察监控——使用聚合阅读器收集所有与学校学科探究线索相关的互联网内容(馈源),
定期扫描收集到的馈源以寻找有价值的主题,找到相关的信息并下载,分享、张贴或归档
重要数据。
21 世纪的研究技能
• 马兰德于 1981 年将研究技能分成9个有顺序的步骤 :
• 确切阐述和分析研究的诉求 ;
• 识别和鉴定可能的原始资料 ;
• 找到每一项资源 ;
• 考察、挑选和排除各种原始资料 ;
• 质疑原始资料 ;
• 记录和储存信息 ;
• 解读、分析、综合和评价
• 收集到的信息 ;
• 介绍和交流正在取得结果的工作 ;
• 评价所取得的成就。
Approaches to Teaching
Approaches to Teaching
• Based on an inquiry approach
• Focused on conceptual understanding
• Developed in local and global contexts
• Focused on effective teamwork and collaboration
• Removing barriers to learning
• Informed by assessment (formative and summative)
Inquiry Action
Reflection
DP Unit planning
• On the Approaches to teaching and learning website, there are
examples of DP unit planners. These DP unit planners are not
intended to mandate or restrict what DP teachers can or cannot do.
Rather, they are intended to inspire and support teachers to think
more about not only what they are teaching, but also how they are
teaching.
• Introduce “DP unit plan review tool. ATL in the DP”
• Review one unit plan( English A)
Group work
• Opening the door on unit planning and creating a culture of
collaboration with the goal to always improve is vital.
Use the questions below to self-assess your school's social skills reflected in the
physical
• environment.
• Does the physical space of the classroom illustrate student-centred learning?
• Can desks be easily moved into pods; is the teacher desk/table off to the side?
• Are there opportunities created for students to interact with one another in ways that build on
their learning in and out of the classroom?
• Are tasks oriented to allow for collaboration?
• Is there opportunity to model and practise refined social skills?
• Do you assign roles for the groups so they can meet an expectation?
• What skills does a student have when there is trouble reaching consensus?
• Do ATL skills get explicitly reinforced in the core(s)? In the Diploma Programme’s CAS, TOK, and
EE? In the Career-related Programme’s reflective project, service learning, PPS, and language
development?
• Do you connect ATL skills to co-curricular programming?
Make ATL learning visible
Please note:
• Common language of approaches to teaching and learning fosters
collaborative planning and facilitates meaningful conversations about teaching
and learning between colleagues and between teachers and students.
• Thinking skills are essential to developing conceptual understandings and
fostering critical inquiry.
• Research skills enable students to process and evaluate relevant information
appropriately, and play an important role in inquiry-based learning.
• Communication and social skills foster meaningful collaboration between
students and teachers, and create connections with the greater community.
• Self-management skills help teachers and students navigate the complex
demands of the Diploma Programme (DP)
The Aim of approaches to teaching and learning
• (Ken O’Connor)
Informed by assessment (formative and summative)
• Formative assessment: “all those activities undertaken by teachers,
and/or by their students, which provide information to be used as
feedback to modify the teaching and learning activities in which they
are engaged” (Black and William 1998: 7)
• Formative assessment is a tool or process that teachers can use to
improve student learning; it is about assessment for learning, rather
than simply assessment of learning.
• Summative assessment is a summary assessment of learning at a
particular time after students have worked with concepts, content
and skill development, and have had sufficient feedback to make
improvements
Feedback
• As educators, is our feedback actually valuable?
• 1) Teacher: “go deeper”
• Student: “I don’t know what else to add”
• 2) Teacher: “too descriptive”
• Student: “I don’t know what he means….and I am NOT going to
ask”
• 3) Teacher: “analysis needed”
• Student: “I am no good at…..”
• 4) Teacher: “great work”
• Student: “not sure why it is great but ok”
• Read the article and conduct group discussion:
