Cooperative Learning In Applied Research, Computer Teaching In Secondary Vocational Schools

With the development at full speed of education technology, the present reform in education points to the new study way and teaching way too. And the independent learning, collaborative learning, inquiry learning are three kinds of learning ways in which the new course reform tries to recommend. Relevant theory study and practical exploration increase day by day too. To the teacher in first line, how to launch relevant teaching practices in one's own teaching practices, is a subject with realistic meaning.This research combine the course's characteristic and teaching aims, by using action research, have processed the instructional practice of collaborative learning. Primarily studied the effects on the students' score of computer course, the interest of learning computer course, the cooperation consciousness and ability in the course of applying collaborative learning to the teaching of computer course in secondary vocational educational school. The object of research is NO. 1 class in grade two in Handan agricultural school, there are 34 students in the experimental class. The process of this research is primarily divided into two stages: the firststage is the preparation stage: (March------July 2007)consisting of analyzing thesis, designingteaching plan, consulting measuring instrument, and having the ex-test. The second stage is theexperiment stage: (September 2007------January 2008)carrying out the formal experiment.Collaborative learning method is applied to the experimental class, make observation and records during the experiment, and a test was held after the experiment. The research results are: collaborative learning can improve the score, interest of studying computer courses, and influence obviously the middle and low level students especially. What's more, it can heighten the collaborative consciousness and ability of the students to some extent.
