近日,南昌力邁(國際)學(xué)校卡文特ELA1B班的孩子們個個忙的不亦樂乎——他們有擔任攝像師的,有負責服裝設(shè)計的,有角色扮演的、有樂器制作的......原來這是一次有聲有色的PBL活動,同學(xué)們各施所長,盡心盡力地制作著一部ELA與Science相結(jié)合的微電影!
故事起源于卡文特1B班ELA課堂上:一片遙遠、潮濕的森林里,夜晚,正在飛行的蝙蝠媽媽遭到貓頭鷹攻擊,不幸將懷中的蝙蝠寶寶Stellaluna掉到了樹上。經(jīng)過一番波折,Stellaluna又墜入一個有3只小鳥的鳥巢。鳥媽媽把它也當作自己的孩子,要求它像鳥一樣,白天飛行、晚上正著睡覺(而非倒掛著)睡覺、吃蟲子而非水果。這些讓Stellaluna感到很不適應(yīng)。終于,在一次遠行時它意外找到了媽媽。
那么,在卡文特ELA1B班,Stellaluna繪本故事是如何一步步成為孩子們自導(dǎo)自演的電影作品的呢?不如讓我們走進Mr.hood的PBL課堂一探究竟吧!
知識小課堂 Project-Based Learning
項目式學(xué)習是一種以學(xué)生為中心的教學(xué)方式。在項目式學(xué)習過程中,學(xué)生會解決具有現(xiàn)實意義的問題,解決這個問題需要用到現(xiàn)實生活中會用到的技能,比如批判性思維、團隊合作能力、決策能力等等。在項目式學(xué)習過程中,不僅僅要求學(xué)生能夠掌握學(xué)科知識,還要懂得如何在現(xiàn)實生活中將這些知識學(xué)以致用。積極地收集信息、獲取知識、探討方案,以此來解決具有現(xiàn)實意義的問題。
項目流程
01
Introduction and research
了解和探索
In stage one, students were introduced to the main idea of the project through the question. The ELA question was “ How can we help new ESL student with little to no understanding of English to understand the book Stellaluna? ” Students looked at the question in different ways and came up with several answers for example: an audio tap, simplified book, a play, however at the end students fell on the idea to develop an abridged movie that would express the story in a simplified meaning.
Due to their decision, students began to come up with the ideas what does a movie need. This began the next question they needed to work on “ what do you need to make a good movie? ” Students work on this question together and came up with several answers and provided some interesting content.
在第一階段,Mr.Hood 通過問題的形式為學(xué)生介紹了這個項目的主要內(nèi)容。他針對ELA課程上課情況對學(xué)生們提出了一個問題:”如何幫助英語基礎(chǔ)薄弱的學(xué)生掌握Stellaluna繪本故事?!睂W(xué)生們想法不一,有的學(xué)生提議做一個錄像帶,有的提議制作一本簡化版書本,還有的學(xué)生提議表演一個戲劇等等。最終學(xué)生們達成一致,決定根據(jù)Stellaluna繪本故事拍攝一個微電影。
確定下來之后,學(xué)生開始思考拍攝電影需要什么,接著他們又思考拍攝一部好電影需要什么。學(xué)生們在一起共同討論如何制作一部好電影,提出了一些非常有趣的內(nèi)容。
02
Being able to identify the content of a story
改編劇本
Students were then asked to complete a work sheet to show their understanding of the Stellaluna story focusing on the character, setting and plot. They were also asked to look at the story again this time trying to solve the issue regarding how to explain the story of Stellaluna to a student with little understanding of English. Students were introduced to the understanding of abridging a story due to this students began to abridge the Stellaluna story in the past tense.
During this time,students were taught about the past, present and future tenses so that they could use this content to help them fulfil their objective for this project. In addition it allowed them to identify the key content of their Calvert’s requirements to be able to identify the characters, setting and the plot of a story.
這個階段,Mr.Hood引導(dǎo)學(xué)生理解Stellaluna繪本故事,重點是在角色、場景和情節(jié)上的理解。他還帶領(lǐng)學(xué)生重溫了這個故事,在這個過程中學(xué)生們需要思考如何向?qū)τ⒄Z基礎(chǔ)薄弱的學(xué)生講解Stellaluna故事。同時Mr. Hood指導(dǎo)學(xué)生如何去改編故事,學(xué)生開始用過去時態(tài)進行故事改編。
在這段時間里,Mr.Hood 教學(xué)生學(xué)習過去、現(xiàn)在和將來三種英語時態(tài),以便他們在這個項目中用正確的英語時態(tài)來完成創(chuàng)作內(nèi)容。此外,學(xué)生還需要根據(jù)卡文特課程要求的核心內(nèi)容來確定這個故事的人物、場景和情節(jié)。
03
The assignments in a team
團隊分工協(xié)作
Once students began to have an idea what they will be doing in their PBL they then needed to work on a new problem, how do they manage the filming of the project? During this period MR.Hood began to introduce students different occupations in the filming industry and focusing on the vocabulary related to need, want and have.
This allowed the students to learn about taking responsibilities. They firstly had to explain what they were responsible for. During this time students began to show a lot of interest in their roles and began to ask questions about what they could learn to be prepared for the filming stage.
學(xué)生開始了解在PBL中將要做什么后,迎來了一個新的問題:如何進行Stellaluna show的拍攝?在此期間,Mr. Hood開始向?qū)W生介紹電影產(chǎn)業(yè)不同的職業(yè),并重點教學(xué)生在拍攝過程中需要的詞匯。
這個過程培養(yǎng)了學(xué)生的責任感。學(xué)生必須闡述各自的工作職責是什么,這引起了學(xué)生對自己的角色的極大興趣,開始主動請教老師他們需要學(xué)習哪些內(nèi)容,如何準備電影拍攝。
04
Prior filming
拍攝準備
After students had decided they responsibilities,students were introduced to another problem to find a solution for. Students were told they were not allowed to speak Chinese in the studio. This was a problem as student English abilities could effect the filming, however students came up with several different ideas to resolve this issue and came up with the idea of using instructional sentences to work in the studio and produce posters to remind people.
學(xué)生們確定了自己的職責之后,又開始著手解決下一個問題。在演播室里學(xué)生是不允許講中文的,但是有的學(xué)生的英語能力可能會影響拍攝。于是學(xué)生提出了幾種不同的方案來解決這個問題,在演播室寫下教學(xué)句子、制作海報來進行提醒。
Mr Hood向?qū)W校申請使用演播室(Studio),并帶來了自己的單反相機和錄音設(shè)備,利用午休時間指導(dǎo)學(xué)生的拍攝及剪輯工作。
05
Reflection
思考探索
Students sat down and began to reflect on the project and decided what they needed to work on in the rest of their project. They also began to look and the next stage of the filming and how to integrate light and sound from their science class.
拍攝告一段落后,學(xué)生們坐在一起思考這個項目,并探討在接下來的項目中需要做什么以及做什么。目前,學(xué)生們已經(jīng)開始著眼于電影拍攝的下一階段,思考如何將科學(xué)課中學(xué)到的燈光和聲音融合到這個項目中。
學(xué)生邀請美術(shù)老師Ms. Zhang和科學(xué)老師Mr.Qu加入到項目中。Ms. Zhang指導(dǎo)學(xué)生,協(xié)助完成拍攝所需的道具,例如:貓頭鷹、蝙蝠等頭飾;Mr.Qu則帶領(lǐng)學(xué)生們在科學(xué)課上完成拍攝所需樂器的制作。

This project had three main goals for student individual development. Firstly being to have students work on their communication abilities, by having students focus on content related to need, want and have, students would practice how to express their desires in an English environment. Our second focus was on the ability to express the past, present and future tenses, this would allow the students to express the action that took place in the project and what they would need to work on. Our final aim was to integrate content they have learnt in English and Science into their daily life to show that content in the classroom can be used in the real world.
從學(xué)生個體角度來講,這個項目主要可以鍛煉學(xué)生三方面的能力。首先通過讓學(xué)生們關(guān)注他們需要的,想要的,已有的內(nèi)容,這激發(fā)了學(xué)生在英語環(huán)境中主動表達自己的強烈意愿,從而鍛煉了他們的溝通能力。其次,學(xué)生通過在這個項目中表達發(fā)生的事情以及他們需要做的事情,在實際中正確掌握了運用過去、現(xiàn)在、將來時態(tài)的能力。最終目標是讓學(xué)生在英語和科學(xué)方面學(xué)到的內(nèi)容整合到日常生活中,將在課程學(xué)習到的內(nèi)容真正的運用到現(xiàn)實世界中。
Students were asked to work as a class to develop a class project. This was to have students work on several key skills and traits they would need in future projects such as: team work、schedule planning、setting goals、cooperation 、researching.
這是一個學(xué)生們以班級為集體展開的團隊項目,這種形式讓學(xué)生掌握了他們將來的項目中需要的幾個關(guān)鍵技能和特質(zhì),如:團隊合作、制定計劃、設(shè)定目標、團隊合作、調(diào)研研究等。
科學(xué)/化學(xué)老師

澳大利亞南澳大學(xué)科學(xué)教育碩士畢業(yè),留學(xué)期間獲得SAAB STEM課程設(shè)計證書。6年教學(xué)經(jīng)驗,擅長策劃和實施基于自然環(huán)境的項目式學(xué)習、科技課程和STEM課程。榮獲 2019 年全國中學(xué)生水科技發(fā)明比賽一等獎,協(xié)助武漢市近50所中小學(xué)開展科學(xué)教育課程。因國際化的教育理念、接地氣的教學(xué)方式,深受學(xué)生喜愛和家長好評。
該項目是以Stellaluna故事展開的英語語言文學(xué)、科學(xué)和藝術(shù)等跨學(xué)科整合學(xué)習。這樣的整合意味著學(xué)生們會對各個學(xué)科更感興趣,學(xué)習過程更具挑戰(zhàn)性,學(xué)習成果將是1+1>2的效應(yīng)。
在科學(xué)課上學(xué)生已經(jīng)初步完成了3種以上樂器的制作。每個孩子都做出了心愛的小樂器:沙槌(Maracus)、管形卡祖笛(Tube Kazoo)、梳子口琴(Comb kazoo)、吸管笛子(Straw flute)和紙盒吉他(Shoebox guitar)。這種學(xué)習模式激發(fā)學(xué)生對于科學(xué)的興趣,每個學(xué)生都非常興奮。接下來,還要學(xué)習光的基本知識和光效的制作,學(xué)生們可以更好地理解聲音和光的基本原理,靈活運用聲音和光制作多種效果,期待學(xué)生們制作出一部聲光并用的Stellaluna show。
Stellaluna show跨學(xué)科學(xué)習形式
教育不斷變革的今天,PBL課程就像高速列車,搭載著科學(xué)、藝術(shù)、數(shù)學(xué)等傳統(tǒng)科目,駛?cè)胄聲r代的高速軌道。知識不再有涇渭分明的界限,學(xué)科的邊界越來越模糊,構(gòu)建出一個全新的學(xué)習場景。
PBL是力邁特色創(chuàng)新教學(xué)模式,旨在激發(fā)學(xué)生的自主學(xué)習的能力,讓學(xué)生成為學(xué)習的主導(dǎo)者,學(xué)習路徑更多元化。這種可以從不同層面激發(fā)他們創(chuàng)造力和求知欲的學(xué)習方式,將比“填鴨式”的課堂講授更實際。更有利于學(xué)生在全新的學(xué)習模式中喚醒自己,突破自己,讓學(xué)生去嘗試、去試錯、去體驗、去歷練的過程中找到屬于自己未來的方向。
