Half a Class: Historical Journey: Really Integrating Teaching into the Classroom

Compared with developed countries such as Europe and America, the development of quality education in China started late. In recent years, under the impetus of the state, educators have gradually realized the importance of quality education, so they strongly advocate popularizing quality education in basic education.

"Half Classroom" is the first time to integrate quality education with various disciplines. Among them, history, as an important humanities, is very important for shaping students' ability and quality.

First, what is quality education?

Half of the classrooms use drama methods and film elements in teaching or social and cultural activities, so that students can achieve their learning goals and objectives in drama practice; The focus of teaching lies in students' participation, understanding the meaning of knowledge from feelings, discovering possibilities from mutual communication and creating new meanings. Semi-classroom can be combined with school education as a teaching method, thus cultivating and perfecting the personality of the educated. Different from traditional education, half class focuses more on students' learning and the all-round cultivation of personality.

Second, the core literacy of history discipline

In recent years, people have paid more and more attention to the importance of moral education from the national level to the school level. The key to moral education is to cultivate the core literacy of the subject. Core literacy refers to the essential character and key ability that students gradually form in the process of learning to meet the needs of personal lifelong development and social development. It is the synthesis of knowledge, skills, feelings, attitudes and values, and it is the most necessary and critical quality, giving consideration to personal development and social development. The core literacy of the discipline includes correct values, necessary characters and key abilities.

The core literacy of history discipline includes: historical materialism, time and space view, historical evidence, historical interpretation and feelings of home and country. The specific understanding is as follows:

1. Historical materialism

It is a scientific historical view and method to reveal the objective basis and development law of human social history, including: social existence determines social consciousness, productivity determines production relations, economic foundation determines superstructure, man is the creator of history, and the real value of life lies in his contribution to society.

2. The concepts of time and space

It refers to the concept of observing and analyzing the relationship between things and specific time and space, which is presented in the form of historical chronology, historical time series, chronological scale, stage characteristics, historical event chronology, historical map and so on.

3. Historical evidence

It refers to the attitude and method of discriminating the obtained historical materials and reproducing the historical truth with reliable historical materials, which are presented in the forms of historical material classification, historical material discrimination, historical material application and viewpoint demonstration.

4. Historical interpretation

It refers to the attitude, ability and method of rational analysis and objective evaluation of historical things based on historical materials and historical understanding, and examines them in the form of material arrangement, interpretation of historical materials, traceability, discussion of cause and effect, analysis of trends, explanation of influence and judgment of status, so as to cultivate the ability to narrate history and form historical understanding.

5. Feelings of home and country

It is the sense of social responsibility and humanistic feelings that learning and exploring history should have, including: excellent traditional culture, national spirit, democracy and rule of law, scientific spirit, world consciousness, positive attitude towards life, sound personality, integration with reality and so on.

At the same time, because the objects of historical research-historical phenomena, historical events, historical figures and the facts and processes of their historical movements-are the objective reality of historical existence, independent of the subjective will of historical acquaintances, and have objective reality and authenticity.

Third, promote half the classroom.

1. Pay attention to the relationship between personal development and the country.

In other words, pay attention to the responsibility of cultivating students' self-cultivation and managing the country and the world.

For example, half of the classrooms pay more attention to process experience when cultivating students. By setting many scenes, teachers reproduce and restore their inner feelings to a great extent, making students feel as if they are in a historical environment. The task of history is to reveal the special laws and characteristics of the historical development of all nationalities and countries in the world. Historical research is a cognitive activity aimed at exploring the special laws of historical development of human society, which determines its disciplinary characteristics. Role-playing and other unique means in half a class can enable students to play the roles of ancient emperors and modern advanced intellectuals. In the face of historical choices, they can substitute the characters' feelings, feel the characters' hearts, experience the realism of history, and have an intuitive knowledge and understanding of traditional culture, which has greatly promoted the cultivation of "feelings of home and country" in historical core literacy, and can even be said to be the best means and methods.

2. Pay attention to the relationship between personal development and society.

The social function of quality education is mainly realized through individual development function. Quality education guides people to actively participate in social life, thus promoting social progress. Half a classroom will face some problems and even contradictions in the process of social development, such as "educational theater" on educational issues and drama therapy in the field of psychology. By paying attention to and analyzing social problems, it is easier for students to form correct values, distinguish right from wrong, and analyze problems from other people's perspectives. It can directly or indirectly promote the formation of "historical interpretation" and "historical materialism" in the core literacy of history discipline.

3. Pay attention to the cultivation of personal critical thinking

Half a class is often promoted in the form of games in the teaching process, and games are conducive to relaxing participants. Students in this relaxed and relaxed state are conducive to independent expression. Through The Imitation Game, competitive games, intelligence games, judgment games, impromptu games and other forms, let them abide by the rules of the game, use their brains, and get the maximum release in the game. Secondly, the game is hypothetical and will reduce people's sense of responsibility in real life. In this case, unexpected ideas and opinions will arise. Activate and maintain children's creative nature and enhance their independent thinking ability. Students' creative thinking is a factor that permeates the core literacy of history discipline. Learn to think critically, take history as a mirror, explain history with historical materialism, treat every historical event, historical figure and historical phenomenon in the historical process, and then produce your own gains.

The organic combination of quality education and history teaching can promote the better realization of history teaching, especially the function of history education. As a science, history has undertaken too many tasks. I believe that today, with the increasing attention and implementation of semi-classroom as a means, we can happily expect that the era of organic integration of school education and semi-classroom will surely come.
