基于有效失败理论的通用技术课程教学设计实例

Abstract

Failure is a common phenomenon in learning, which can become an important learning opportunity when properly utilized. China's New Curriculum Standard for General Technology call for attention to students' engineering thinking and problem-solving abilities, and productive failure can facilitate the cultivation of these competencies. Based on the theoretical foundation of productive failure, this paper conducts three rounds of action research and proposes a well-conceived instructional design. This design aims to activate cognitive processes, identify optimal points, and create safe exploratory spaces, thereby enabling learning from errors during instructional phases. Supported by productive failure theory and employing action research methodology for instructional design, this study provides guidance and exemplars for General Technology teachers in their pedagogical practices.
