Junior High School Geography Teaching Design Based On Experiential Learning Concept

In the traditional middle school geography learning mode,students mainly accept the interpretation of the conclusion,can’t fully understand the source of knowledge.In addition,students lack of the space movement imagination and some geographical knowledge and principle are too abstract,students can’t obtain intuitive feelings from real life to form the geographical concept.Experiential learning is the process of gaining new knowledge,skills,attitudes and methods after the learners feel,experience,communicate and practice themselves.After confirm clear learning objectives,with the help of the teachers creating special environment which matches the students’ cognitive level and psychological characteristics.Different from the traditional learning,experiential learning emphasizes learners’ position.Learners build the knowledge system by themselves actively rather than accepting passively.It’s helpful to arouse the enthusiasm and interest of students in learning.This thesis combines the experiential learning research,reviews related theories and discusses the inspiration to teaching design of junior middle school geographical teaching.The inspiration from teaching principles,teaching content,teaching goal design,the choice of teaching methods,teaching stages and the teaching evaluation.The study aims to change the traditional teaching mode,enrich junior high school geography teaching method,provide ideas for teaching design under the concept of experiential learning,improve teaching effectiveness.The main points are as follows:(1)The teaching under the concept of experiential learning should focus on students’subjectivity,situational life,diversity method,and teacher-student interaction principle.(2)The teaching content selection based on experiential learning concept should be based on procedural content;(3)The design of teaching target based on experiential learning concept should pay attention to the design of process and method dimension and emotion attitude and values dimension.The design of process and method dimension can be achieved better.(4)The teaching stages based on experiential learning concept can be summed up to four stages:create experience through creating a situation,through activity inquiry,free experience;through the exchange of expression,perfecting the experience and moving through action,the feedback experience.(5)The teaching evaluation based on experiential learning concept should combine the evaluation of process evaluation and termination,the evaluation of 3 dimention targets,the evaluation by teachers and students.To diversify and process teaching evaluation.(6)The teaching design based on experiential learning concept is beneficial to the mastery of students’ knowledge,conducive to the improvement of students’ learning interest and the individualized guidance of teachers.
