| On the basis of big data,cloud computing,mobile Internet,the Internet has swept all traditional fields like a tsunami and set off a wave of reform.When modern information technology and data permeate into every aspect of our life,the information technology represented by the computer and the Internet will also trigger a comprehensive reform on the education ecosystem.Astronomy is the science that mankind knows universe,it is the cradle of modern science and revolution,it is one of fountainhead that promotes human progress,study astronomy,it is the inevitable demand that human existence develops.Due to China’s large population,poor education infrastructure and the exam-oriented education,the general public’s astronomical science literacy is not high,there is a big gap between the western developed countries,therefore,how to make full use of the modern information technology platform to conduct the work of astronomical science popularization is a major issue that all current astronomical science workers facing.Firstly,this study apply the literature analysis method to analysis the related theory and practice of astronomical science App at home and abroad,then from the aspects of ubiquitous learning,deliberate practice,situational learning and constructivism to explore the common of teaching design and astronomical science App design in theory,then apply the questionnaire survey method to survey general science fans of favoring what kind of astronomical knowledge content,and what style of the App,then apply the case analysis to analysis the advantages and disadvantages of popular astronomical science App cases at home and abroad;Secondly,based on the results of literature analysis,questionnaire survey and case analysis,the guiding principles of App design for astronomy popular science were proposed,namely 1.Attracting user’s interest;2.Content should be interesting and visualized;3.Provide feedback mechanism;Then,on the basis of the above guiding principles,develop the App for popular science of astronomy: App’s name is "starry sky",and contains four main columns: "astronomical information","astronomical photo","astronomy book" and "mine".Finally,apply the interview method to evaluate the effect of the above App,base on the evaluation,summarizing the innovation points and shortcomings of the App designed by this study,for the purpose of providing theoretical and sample references for similar App of astronomy popularization in the future. |
