摘要

在大学科学教学中,类比概念占据了主导地位,而这些内容大多与学生的已有知识或日常经验缺乏足够的联系。这可能会给学生带来问题,因此本研究旨在确定一个关于使用类比来建立这些重要学习联系的专业发展模块的实用性和有效性。我们对 2018 年至 2021 年期间参加该模块的 75 名研究生助教设计的教学计划中的类比进行了定性内容分析。该模块是大学科学教学(TSU)课程的一部分,将认知科学与结构化类比设计工具相结合,该工具最初是为 K-12 教育开发的。大多数课程参与者都系统地使用了该工具,并开发了将抽象的科学目标概念与学生日常经验相联系的类比;然而,有些类比包含较高的认知负荷或未处理的拟人逻辑,可能会对学习产生负面影响。学员们对本模块学习的反思表明,他们重新认识到有必要对类比进行规划和积极的学生讨论,特别是在类比出现问题时。这项研究表明,TSU 使用结构化教学工具对计划和类比教学进行的逐步指导非常适合高等教育。

Improving University Life Science Instruction with Analogies: Insights from a Course for Graduate Teaching Assistants.

concepts dominate university science teaching, and much of this content is taught without sufficient connection to students' prior knowledge or everyday experiences. As this can be problematic for students, the aim of this research was to determine the utility and effectiveness of a professional development module on using analogies to make these important connections for learning. We conducted qualitative content analysis of analogies in teaching plans designed by 75 graduate teaching assistants who participated in the module between 2018 and 2021. The module is part of a course on Teaching Science at University (TSU) and pairs cognitive science with a structured analogy design tool, originally developed for K-12 education. Most course participants used the tool systematically and developed analogies linking abstract science target concepts with students' everyday experiences; however, some analogies contained a high cognitive load or unaddressed anthropomorphic logic that might negatively impact learning. Participants' reflections on their learning in the module suggested a new awareness of the need for planning and for active student discussion of analogies, particularly where they break down. This research has shown that TSU's stepwise guidance using a structured pedagogical tool for planning and teaching with analogies is highly suitable for higher education.

期刊介绍: CBE—Life Sciences Education (LSE), a free, online quarterly journal, is published by the American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB). The journal was launched in spring 2002 as Cell Biology Education—A Journal of Life Science Education. The ASCB changed the name of the journal in spring 2006 to better reflect the breadth of its readership and the scope of its submissions. LSE publishes peer-reviewed articles on life science education at the K–12, undergraduate, and graduate levels. The ASCB believes that learning in biology encompasses diverse fields, including math, chemistry, physics, engineering, computer science, and the interdisciplinary intersections of biology with these fields. Within biology, LSE focuses on how students are introduced to the study of life sciences, as well as approaches in cell biology, developmental biology, neuroscience, biochemistry, molecular biology, genetics, genomics, bioinformatics, and proteomics.
