TAKING INQUIRY OUTDOORS: READING, WRITING, AND SCIENCE BEYOND THE CLASSROOM
Book ID/图书代码: 12353809B32927
English Summary/英文概要: As national attention is focused on students’ abilities to read and write effectively, instructional time allotted for science and other content-area disciplines is often decreased. Many teachers have discovered, however, that involving students in meaningful scientific inquiry provides them with authentic and motivating reasons to read, research, and write.
Taking Inquiry Outdoors is written by a group of educators who have used the natural world as a setting for purposeful student learning and critical teacher reflection. Their stories are about more than just stepping out the door, more than offering students a breath of fresh air. For these teachers, the outdoors provides an authentic laboratory that promotes questions, investigations, reading, writing, listening, and sharing. Notes are kept, data collected, questions recorded, and observations documented. Children critically review their own experiences, place these experiences within the larger context of group findings, evaluate and compare data, generalize concepts, and, best of all, come up with new questions to explore.
Contributors to Taking Inquiry Outdoors reflect on children and learning, on teaching, on science made understandable through reading, hands-on investigations, and writing. Their work will appeal to all elementary and middle school teachers who want to integrate reading, writing, and research across the elementary and middle school curriculum.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 由于大家都将注意力放在学生读写的能力上,科学和其它领域的学科分配的教学时间往往都会下降。然而教师们却发现,使得学生参与到一些有意义的科学指导中会给他们提供更真实并激励人心的理由去读书、研究和写作。 《将求知带往户外》是由一组教育人员编写的,他们将自然世界作为设定来观察有目的的学生学习和临界教师反映。他们的故事不仅仅是走出户外,也不仅仅是使学生呼吸更多新鲜空气。对于这些老师来说,户外提供了一个真实的实验室来让学生提出疑问、调查、读书、写作、倾听和分享。笔记被保存下来,数据也都收集起来,问题都记录下来,还有观察结果也都记录在案。孩子们评析了他们自己的经验,将这些经验放在更大的小组发现范围内,他们会评价并对比数据,推广概念,而且最好的是,又会提出新的问题来探索。
《将求知带往户外》的作者们反映出了孩子和学习,反映出了教学,也反映出了通过读书、亲手调查和写作对科学的理解。这本书将会吸引那些想将读书、写作和研究整合进小学和初中课程里的小学初中老师们。(LNL)
