Interdisciplinary Thematic Learning:From Formal Innovation to Meaning Construction
Interdisciplinary thematic learning currently presents a situation of innovative teaching forms but lack of meaning.An in-depth investigation shows that the"imbalanced"learning objectives,"sliced"learning con-tent,"superficial"learning process and"false"learning evaluation of formalism are the main causes.Meaning con-struction is an effective way to promote the deep innovation in teaching.Specifically,meaning construction plays a significant role in cultivating the individual's ability to perceive the situation,enhancing the consciousness of knowledge comprehension,strengthening the ability of problem solving,and reinforcing the awareness of life awak-ening.In this regard,taking awakening students'positive experience of interdisciplinary situations as a starting point,it is necessary to grasp the systematic practical path of meaning construction through activating students'meaningful understanding of interdisciplinary knowledge,showing the process of applying interdisciplinary think-ing,and helping learners to consciously improve their interdisciplinary literacy and competence in the process of seeking knowledge and reflecting on it.
