A Study On The Organization And Application Of Local Geography Curriculum Resources At The Compulsory Stage Of High School Geography In Tianjin

The 19 th National Congress of the Party has proposed that education needs to implement the fundamental task of establishing moral education.In the new curriculum reform,it is mentioned that "the content of geography teaching should be closely related to life,and teaching materials and cases should be sought from life,so that students can learn lifelike geography.".Since 2019,Tianjin has been using the new Chinese version of the compulsory teaching materials.The new reform has put forward new requirements for teaching geography in senior secondary schools,and in the face of the overall goal of establishing moral education,cultivating core literacy in geography and the two requirements of "living geography",local geography is a good entry point,but at the present stage,there are very few local geography teaching resources allocated in the new Tianjin senior secondary geography textbooks.Therefore,this paper investigates the current situation of the application of local geography resources in high school geography in Tianjin by means of a questionnaire with the students and high school geography teachers who apply the new teaching materials in the first year of senior high school respectively.At this stage,students have an average understanding of the natural and human geography of Tianjin,but they have a certain willingness to learn about it,and they are also willing to learn about vernacular geography in geography teaching,but they are limited by their exposure to vernacular geography and do not fully understand the value of vernacular geography.For high school geography teachers,they generally agree with the role of vernacular geography knowledge and are willing to use vernacular geography resources in their teaching activities,but due to various factors,the total amount of vernacular geography resources applied at this stage is relatively small.And at this stage,Tianjin is does not have corresponding teaching materials for vernacular geography,and it is difficult for each school to develop its own school-based teaching materials for vernacular geography in a short period of time.Therefore,in the form of curriculum resources,making use of the vernacular geography resources in Tianjin is a feasible path to use vernacular geography resources for teaching at this stage.On this basis,after research and study,the physical and human geography profile of Tianjin is summarised,containing twelve aspects of topography and landforms,climate,hydrology,vegetation,soil,marine resources,population,culture and history,agriculture,industry,services and transport.From this perspective,it is easy to see that Tianjin has a relatively rich basis for the development of local geography curriculum resources.However,when developing curriculum resources based on the vernacular geography resources of Tianjin,certain principles and strategies need to be followed,under the principles of meeting the characteristics of the geography subject,meeting the content requirements of the geography curriculum standards and teaching materials,and ensuring the scientific nature of the content.The development should also pay attention to the effect of the curriculum resources on the cultivation of students’ core literacy and the feasibility of teachers’ application in conducting geography teaching activities,while the application of local geography curriculum resources should not impose additional learning burdens on students.Based on the above principles and strategies,the development of local geography resources in Tianjin is carried out.In this thesis,the local geography curriculum resources corresponding to the content of each chapter of the textbook are collated and presented in the form of a table.The development of local geography resources in this thesis is limited to the compulsory stage of high school geography due to the limitations of my ability.For each chapter of the textbook,the corresponding local geography resources are selected and integrated into the teaching sessions in various forms in order to cultivate students’ corresponding geographic core literacy and emotional values,while effectively avoiding the single form of local geography resources presentation.In this study,two sections of the 2019 Chinese version of senior high school geography,Compulsory 1,"Major Formation Factors of Soil" and Compulsory 2,"Agricultural Location Factors",are selected as case studies for teaching design with the curriculum resources of vernacular geography in Tianjin.In the section "Main Forming Factors of Soil",the saline soil,which is widely distributed in Binhai New Area of Tianjin,is selected as a vernacular geography resource and organically integrated with the knowledge points of the textbook;in "Agricultural Location Factors",Hangu Rose Grapes in Binhai New Area of Tianjin is selected as a case study and integrated with agricultural location factors through its distribution and development changes.In developing these two sections of curriculum resources,the close integration of Tianjin’s local geography resources with the content of geography textbooks,the development of core geography literacy and the application of curriculum resources is achieved.Through the development and application of local geography curriculum resources,they can contribute positively to the cultivation of students’ core literacy,the enhancement of their interest in learning and the establishment of a lifelong learning mindset.However,it cannot be ignored that there is still a deficiency in the development of vernacular geography curriculum resources at this stage.It is hoped that in the next stage of study and research,the development of vernacular geography curriculum resources will be further deepened and improved to provide reference and help for high school geography teaching.
