What does educational informatization mean to teachers?
Education informatization is a process that regards information as the basic component of the education system, widely uses information technology in all fields of education and promotes the modernization of education. The technical characteristics of educational informatization are digitalization, networking, intelligence and multimedia, and the basic characteristics are openness, enjoyment, interaction and cooperation. Educational informatization is the application of modern information technology and educational technology to the teaching process, and its purpose is to promote educational modernization with informatization and push education and teaching to a new level on the existing basis. Of course, educational informatization will also have a huge impact on traditional educational ideas, educational concepts, educational models, teaching forms and learning methods, and this impact has already formed. But it is also an impact that is conducive to the healthy development and progress of education, because our school education has initially tasted the sweetness.
Teachers are an indispensable factor in school education and teaching, and education informatization cannot be separated from teachers' active participation. It can also be seen that teachers are the main force to promote education informatization. In the information age, if a teacher does not have good information literacy and information technology that modern people must have, it will be difficult to stand on the three-foot platform, let alone competent, and even more ridiculous. Because in today's society, everyone has been exposed to the environment covered by information technology, from gestures to treating people. If you don't have relevant information technology knowledge and ability, you will be embarrassed everywhere. Campus is the frontier of informatization popularization. There are no traces of informationization in teaching buildings, classrooms, laboratories, libraries and offices. It's just that the degree is high and low. Of course, it takes a process for our teachers to fully adapt to the informationization of education.
Then, in the era of educational informationization, what kind of actual performance should teachers have in educational practice? First of all, we should establish the concept of modern education. Teachers should change from the traditional knowledge imparting to the organizer and coordinator of learning, that is, guide, plan, organize and coordinate students' various learning activities, and pay attention to cultivating students' ability to learn independently and acquire information and knowledge. Secondly, we must have the ability to apply modern information technology. An important aspect of educational informatization is the use of computer-aided teaching, which requires teachers to master relevant computer knowledge and related operational skills, understand and learn necessary things, and cultivate their ability to design and make courseware, so as to be able to carry out stand-alone teaching and network teaching.
2. Educational informatization should point to curriculum integration.
In practical teaching, curriculum integration is a very important aspect of teacher education informatization. If he can make good use of proper teaching to develop courses, he will undoubtedly get twice the result with half the effort to break through the key points and difficulties in textbooks and improve teaching efficiency, and will also play an important role in promoting the reform of existing teaching means, teaching methods and teaching content.
Curriculum integration is the perfect and appropriate application of various technical means to the curriculum, which liberates classroom teaching from traditional textbooks, handouts, chalk and blackboards. For teachers, it is the beginning of modern teaching. But it is not easy to achieve the goal of curriculum integration. Teachers should not only master the means of information technology, but also deeply understand the essence of education, the goals to be achieved in teaching this subject, the emphases and difficulties of teaching, and the advantages and limitations of traditional teaching. In the process of curriculum integration, teachers will inevitably encounter unpredictable problems and difficulties, which requires teachers to pay attention to accumulation and try their best to obtain all kinds of useful information, such as searching for information on the Internet or reading related paper media, TV media and e-books. The more you know about the source of information, the better. You should be able to find those hidden information from places where ordinary people are not easy to detect, and constantly improve your analytical judgment ability. In addition, teachers should constantly improve their ability to integrate relevant information, be able to creatively plan, process and process the obtained information, such as designing classroom teaching plans, writing courseware scripts, etc., and at the same time consider how to make the most effective use of information from reality to embody brand-new teaching concepts and teaching organization forms and methods. We should always organize and adjust our teaching ideas and strategies according to the latest education and teaching information, and we should always be in a state of "negation of negation" in normal education and teaching. For the course content that is especially suitable for using computer and other modern media to assist teaching, it should be included in the scope of courseware making in time, and relevant courseware should be made as much as possible for teaching, so as to achieve the purpose of improving teaching.
3. Education informatization should focus on the cultivation of students' quality.
Paying attention to the cultivation of students' information literacy is another important aspect that teachers should pay attention to in the face of educational informatization. The fundamental purpose of educational informatization is to promote quality education and realize the cultivation of innovative talents. One of the basic qualities that talents facing the information society should have is information ability, which is the basic ability for everyone to live and study in the information society, the passport to enter the information society, and the important foundation and guarantee for realizing national informatization. Education informatization should take the cultivation of each student's information ability as an important content. In the information society, if a person can't choose and use information correctly, he will be in danger of being overwhelmed by information. Teachers should pay attention to the cultivation of students' information ability, and guide and guide students to learn to collect and process information according to the needs of teaching, and turn it into their own ability; It is necessary to guide students to correctly use the Internet, books, television and other channels to carry out learning (including collaborative learning under the network environment), and cultivate students' ability to explore, discover and solve problems independently and creative thinking. The application of information technology in teaching can accelerate the cultivation of the above abilities.
In the traditional receptive teaching centered on knowledge transmission and understanding, students passively accept knowledge, which is far from the requirements of modern society. To reverse this situation and encourage students to actively acquire knowledge, teachers need to guide students to master learning methods and thinking methods, and teach them to actively explore the unknown world by using computer technology and knowledge.
