High-quality Development of Science Education in Rural Schools:Values,Dilemmas,Causes and Possible Paths
The development of science and technological innovation capabilities is the key to achieve the great rejuvenation of our coun-try and comprehensively promote the construction of a strong country with Chinese characteristics.As our country progresses from the bal-anced distribution development of urban and rural educational resources towards the high-quality and balanced development of urban and rural education,the gap in the quality of subject-specific courses between urban and rural schools is gradually narrowing.However,the gap in the quality of comprehensive courses is slowly widening,especially in rural schools where science classes often evolve into free activi-ty sessions for students.This situation deviates significantly from the objective of science education,which aims to cultivate interdisciplinary research skills and enhance scientific literacy.Firstly,the value logic of the high-quality development of science education in rural schools were clarified from four aspects:the generation of learning interest,the implementation of core competencies,the coordinated development of urban and rural areas and the construction of a strong agricultural nation.Secondly,the realistic difficulties and potential factors of the high-quality development of science education in rural schools in China were analyzed from three perspectives:the chaos in organizational management of rural schools,the exhaustion of the endogenous motivation of teachers'professional development and the fracture in social support.Finally,the possible pathways for the high-quality of science education in rural schools based on the theoretical perspective of TOE(Technology-Organization-Environment)were proposed focusing on technological empowerment,organizational influence,environ-mental support and endogenous motivation,aiming to provide reference and inspiration for the high-quality development of science educa-tion in rural schools.
