Core literacy and quality education

Lead:? Core literacy? After the official release of the research results, it has attracted wide attention, and many articles about it have appeared in the circle of friends. Core literacy? what's up Explosive text? . In fact, what everyone is most concerned about is what is the relationship between core literacy and current educational reform, and what impact will it have on educational practice? See if the following article can solve your doubts.

what's up Core literacy? Or? Ability?

This time, it is the first time in the history of China's education to propose deepening the curriculum reform of basic education. Core literacy? This concept. According to the definition of OECD, ability? It includes not only knowledge and skills, but also the ability of individuals to mobilize and utilize various psychological and social resources (including various skills and attitudes) to meet complex needs in specific situations? . It surpassed? Cognitive ability? Category is not limited to the traditional sense? Ability? The connotation and extension of, but contains what? All kinds of knowledge, skills, attitudes and values? .

OECD's definition of core literacy has obvious social adaptation tendency. With the advent of the information age and innovative economic model, more and more job types require individuals to be able to cope with unfamiliar challenging situations and complex and changeable tasks. In such an environment, individuals should be able to deal with complex problems flexibly, communicate and use technology effectively, work and innovate in teams, and constantly produce new information, knowledge or products. Throughout the core literacy framework put forward by the European Union, Australia, the United States and other western developed countries or international organizations, this position is highlighted without exception. These frameworks all emphasize the importance of innovation, critical thinking, communication and teamwork in a diversified and heterogeneous society under the environment of digitalization, informationization and globalization. These qualities reflect the individual's adaptation to the requirements of 2 1 century.

In view of the above tendency, some scholars think that this curriculum reform should adopt? Ability? , not? Core literacy? This semester; Others think? Core literacy? More emphasis on social adaptability, not enough attention to personal development. Core literacy? As the goal of this curriculum reform, it is not appropriate enough; Others think? Core literacy? More emphasis is placed on the advanced skills that individuals in the future society should have, and it cannot completely cover all the connotations of the goal of educating people in basic education.

These views are reasonable if they are used to analyze and understand the research on core literacy and related curriculum reform trends in western developed countries and international organizations. But what if it is used to judge this time? Core literacy? It is biased to modify the curriculum standards of ordinary high schools for the design concept. This is because the deepening of the basic education curriculum reform is not a mechanical copy of western related concepts and research conclusions, but a creative application based on international experience and the actual situation and practical problems of the basic education curriculum reform in China? Core literacy? This concept. This understanding is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1、? Core literacy? Trying to answer what to cultivate and how to cultivate people.

If the school curriculum in the basic education stage is an important carrier to implement Lide Shu Ren's fundamental task, then the demonstration and elaboration of the connotation, composition, relationship and development level of the core literacy required by students in the basic education stage in China at present and in the future is the fundamental way to transform Lide Shu Ren's fundamental task into a concrete and systematic educational goal in the basic education stage. Are you sure according to this positioning? Core literacy? Is it necessary to critically absorb international correlation? Key ability? The reasonable connotation and theoretical basis of the research should also inherit and carry forward China's excellent cultural tradition from the perspective of 2 1 century, and also make a profound summary and reflection on several basic education curriculum reforms in China since the 1920s and 1930s, especially the eighth basic education curriculum reform.

In this position? Core literacy? The connotation should not only cover the tools of human culture that should be mastered through school study, but also include innovation, critical thinking, communication and teamwork needed to adapt to the information age of 2 1 century? Ability? ; We should not only attach importance to the tradition of scientifically understanding the world and participating in society under western culture, but also inherit the virtue and accomplishment of China culture. Stop at the best? The spiritual core of. So, what is used in this curriculum reform? Core literacy? And its theoretical construction, in essence, is an attempt to answer questions under the current political, economic and social situation and development trend of China? What kind of personnel should they train? And then what? How to train people? problem

2. Why use it? Literacy? And it's useless? Quality?

In the fundamental value orientation, core literacy? Is this formulation consistent with what China has advocated since1980s? Quality education? It has internal consistency and is the deepening of quality education in the new period. The quality education put forward in the late 1980s aims to change the over-emphasis at that time? Intellectual education is unique and scores are paramount? what's up The disadvantages of exam-oriented education have promoted the transformation of educational model. This time? Core literacy? Formulating academic quality standards based on core literacy, trying to further clarify the quality view of basic education and the requirements of personnel training, so as to realize the fundamental transformation of education model. Why was it adopted? Literacy? Concept, but never used? Quality? The formula has the following considerations:

( 1)? Quality? Usually refers to the result of the interaction between individual innate endowment and acquired environment (education). And then what? Literacy? More points are acquired, can be cultivated through education, and can highlight the value of education.

(2) although there are a lot of related? Quality? And then what? Quality education? However, there is no recognized system theory system, curriculum model and implementation approach. In contrast,? Literacy? It is a scientific construction consistent with international scientific research literature, with a large number of related research and achievements. Can we build our own country on the basis of drawing lessons from international theories and research models? Core literacy? The theoretical system of.

(3) From the perspective of propulsion strategy, what is the choice? Core literacy? Instead of using it? Quality? It is easier to give it new meaning, arouse public attention and thinking, and avoid the mindset that old ideas may contain.

The Relationship between Core Literacy and Basic Knowledge and Skills

With what? Core literacy? As the educational goal of basic education, it does not mean that basic literacy and knowledge and skills in specific fields are unnecessary. The outstanding feature of core literacy lies in whether individuals can cope with all kinds of challenging and complex practical tasks in real life. In this process, it is inseparable from the dynamic system in which individuals can comprehensively apply knowledge and skills, ways of thinking or inquiry skills, attitudes and values in related fields. The reason for this understanding is that I only saw it? Core literacy? The literal meaning of this term does not understand that its training process is based on discipline or interdisciplinary course's study. What problems can the curriculum reform based on literacy solve? To sum up, this curriculum reform based on core literacy attempts to respond to the following five questions, and expects a substantial breakthrough.

Keywords: education target system

The overall goal of basic education in China should pay more attention to students' personality development and social adaptability, but the expression is often too abstract, and its connotation and extension are not clearly defined and systematically expounded. On the practical level, influenced by exam-oriented education and discipline teaching tradition, discipline education aims at acquiring specific knowledge and skills and forming a discipline knowledge system. This phenomenon not only leads to the difficulty in linking the educational goals of disciplines with the overall goals, but also leads to strict barriers between disciplines, which breeds the idea of discipline-based, and it is difficult to achieve real integration in the value of educating people.

Constructing a systematic core literacy model is the key link to connect the overall goal of basic education and the goal of subject education in China. As the embodiment of the overall goal, the core literacy model has become a reference framework for thinking and defining the educational value and unique educational value of different disciplines. It provides a target basis for the deep integration of curriculum objectives, contents and learning opportunities of various disciplines, and also provides a theoretical basis for the determination of interdisciplinary learning themes (or courses). In addition, the development of core literacy runs through the whole basic education stage.

By revealing the connotation, composition structure, performance characteristics and development mechanism of different core literacy in the whole basic education stage, we can build an educational goal theory with core literacy as the main axis and closely combining the physical and mental development level of students in the basic education stage. This objective theory is an important foundation and basis for formulating curriculum standards, curriculum design and management, teaching, evaluation and teachers' professional development, thus providing guarantee for truly implementing the fundamental task of moral education.

Keywords: changes in learning methods and teaching models

Since the eighth curriculum reform, in order to break the over-emphasis on the teaching and practice of subject knowledge points in subject teaching and fully implement the overall goal of curriculum reform, this paper puts forward? Knowledge and skills, processes and methods, emotional attitudes and values? The goal of subject education. However, due to various theoretical and practical reasons, three-dimensional targets? In the actual teaching practice, it has evolved into a unique? Knowledge and skills? ,? Process and method? Not fully realized,? Emotional attitudes and values? Formalization and fuzzification.

Core literacy helps to re-examine? Three-dimensional target? The integral problem of. Core literacy is essentially a comprehensive quality to deal with and solve complex and uncertain real life situations. This process is inseparable from the dynamic system in which individuals can comprehensively apply relevant knowledge and skills, ways of thinking or inquiry skills, attitudes and values. In this sense, what is core literacy? Three-dimensional target? The integration of. This integration takes place in a specific task environment. Core literacy is formed in the process of individuals constantly interacting with situations, constantly solving problems and creating meaning.

In this process, individuals create knowledge through activities in situations, form thinking concepts and inquiry skills, and develop literacy. The function of education or teaching is to choose or create reasonable situations and promote learning through appropriate activities. Therefore, the concept of core literacy includes the change of learning style and teaching mode. It requires teachers to create real problem situations that are closely related to real life, so that students can conduct experiential, cooperative, exploratory or constructive learning through problem-based or project-based activities.

Keywords: modern curriculum standards

The existing curriculum standards in China are essentially content standards, and the arrangement style mainly follows the logic of the subject content system, paying too much attention to the content standards, and the subject and interdisciplinary literacy have not become the main line, resulting in the lack of prominent and systematic cultivation of core literacy.

The latest development model of international basic education curriculum standards has been adopted in the revision of ordinary senior high school curriculum standards. On the basis of interdisciplinary core literacy, we should reflect on the concept of discipline essence and the value of discipline education, condense the core literacy of various disciplines, and formulate academic quality standards based on core literacy. Taking the cultivation of core literacy as the direction, the course content is integrated and reconstructed with the concept of (interdisciplinary), and the structure of subject knowledge and skills is concerned; Highlight the practical activities of the discipline and emphasize the infiltration of the way of thinking and inquiry. The revised curriculum standards always focus on cultivating students' core literacy. Is it really realized? Education-oriented and literacy-oriented? The design concept of.

Keywords: new concept of students' quality standard

The revised curriculum standard establishes the academic quality standard with core literacy as the key link, and reshapes the academic quality view in the basic education stage. According to this view, the so-called academic quality standard refers to the clear definition and description of various core qualities that students should have when completing their studies in different periods in basic education. This view of academic quality is conducive to guiding teachers to pay attention to how the core literacy falls on students, to clearly understand the literacy performance of students at different levels, and to design teaching methods and strategies and choose curriculum resources according to actual needs.

Integrating academic quality standards with clear hierarchical descriptions into curriculum standards means that the curriculum standards promulgated by the state can directly guide teachers' teaching and students' learning, provide a basis for process academic evaluation, graduation examination proposition and college entrance examination proposition, and provide an upper theoretical framework and hierarchical basis for theoretical updating, practical reform and college entrance examination proposition reform of subject teaching methods.

Keywords: evaluation system

The existing examination and evaluation in our country are too rigid in the form of paper and pencil, emphasizing the acquisition of isolated and deterministic subject knowledge and skills. The evaluation task is divorced from the reality of students' life and pays too much attention to the standard problem-solving process and correct answers.

The evaluation based on core literacy aims to change the disadvantages of current examinations and evaluations. By creating comprehensive, situational and ill-structured real tasks, students' real academic achievements can be directly evaluated, and the propositions of large-scale examinations in China, such as senior high school entrance examinations, can be changed from the connotation. Pay attention to uncertain (interdisciplinary) disciplines and daily evaluation activities based on real social practice, and pay attention to students' ability to raise and form problems, discover, collect and use information, weigh different schemes, generate new ideas or find new ways to solve complex problems, effectively express their understanding and understanding, and effectively communicate with others in real task situations.

Through observation, discussion, display, peer or self-evaluation, growth record portfolio, etc., all kinds of evidence of students in different occasions, at different times and in different forms are collected to realize a comprehensive and reasonable evaluation of the development level of students' core literacy. More importantly, relying on the academic quality standards based on core literacy, by formulating a reasonable core literacy evaluation system, we can build a quality discourse system with substantive connotation and promote the construction of common learning among students, teachers, parents, schools and communities.
