5 教学方法与风格
5 Teaching means and styles
每一种理念都有其执行的方法。至于风格,则是执行该行动的特定、非固定的方式。在教育领域,风格指教师为了帮助学生实现目标而采取的一切有指导性的活动,即迅速而成功地传达思想、概念和各类知识。教师可以根据教学情境选择不同的风格,因此他会顾及学生的水平,并选择最佳风格来达成目标,例如辩论、讨论、叙述、讲故事、解决问题、实验、直接的实践练习等。风格通常需要一种或多种手段来实施行动。手段和风格并非固定不变;它们会随着环境、人员和可能性而改变、演进并增多。正如执行行动必须有某种方法,手段和风格在执行该方法时也发挥着重要作用。要迅速而成功地完成行动,就取决于创新出适宜的手段和风格来实施这一行动。
Every idea has its method of execution. As for styles, they are specific non-permanent modes of performing the action. Styles within the subject of education means all types of directed activity that the teacher undertakes with the objective of assisting his students to realise the goal, namely communicating thoughts, concepts and diverse knowledge quickly and successfully. The teacher can choose diverse styles according to what suits the education situation, so he heeds the level of students and chooses the best style to achieve the goal e.g. styles such as debate, discussion, narration, story telling, problem solving, experimentation, direct practical exercises, etc. Often styles require one or more means to perform the action. Means and styles are not permanent; they change, evolve and ennumerate according to circumstances, people and possibilities. Just as a method must exist to execute an action, means and styles play an important role in executing this method. Accomplishing the action quickly and successfully depends upon innovating suitable means and styles to perform this action.
