The Research On The Cultivation Of Evidence Consciousness In High School History Teaching

The essence of history lies in its authenticity, history is the fact that happened in the past, no one can experience it by himself. That is to say, each of the historical conclusion need to be supported by evidence. Since the 1990 s, the study of ‘the consciousness of evidence’ has made a lot of outstanding achievements, especially in the aspect of ‘the development of evidence between the teachers and students’.However, if we look into these studies carefully, we will find that the study about the cultivation of evidence consciousness is not so much. Besides, the relationship between the historical evidence and the historical data does not have clear definition and distinction. These studies mainly start from only one case or just the writers’ own teaching experience. Thus, it is necessary for us to look into this theme deeply from the form to the content. The essences of history are the‘truth and fact’, on this basis, if we penetrate the evidence consciousness into the history teaching, it will be beneficial to our teachers and students forever.This article focuses on the cultivation of evidence consciousness and is based on the current status of developing students’ evidence consciousness. The questionnaire survey method and the interview method are used in this article to find out what is the real situation about this issue. According to the survey results, we will give some solutions. We will also make a clear distinction between the historical evidence and the data at the same time.The paper mainly consists of four parts. First, it gives a specific definition of the evidence consciousness, it also tells us the importance of cultivating evidence consciousness. Second, it presents the situation and the problems during the process of cultivating evidence consciousness by using the methods of questioning and interviewing. Third, according to the results of survey, it states some relative solutions.The teachers must keep the evidence conscious in mind, and constantly improve their professional accomplishment and teaching philosophy, pay more attention to the evidence. Then, the history textbook arrangement needs to be improved. We can add to more outstanding historical evidence and relative data. Finally, we should organize more after-class activities actively, develop students’ interest in history. Forth, we emphasize on the problems during the process of developing students’ evidence consciousness. Such as the select of evidence must adapt to the important and difficult points of the teaching, the breadth and the depth of the selected historical documents and so on to practice the teaching of evidence consciousness smoothly. The writer also hope this study can provide theoretical basis for cultivating students evidence consciousness in teaching, and can also offer the history teachers some guidance.
