Let the "classroom" and "palace" cooperate closely.
The museum is not only loaded with stories of human civilization, but its existence can bring far-reaching historical power to generations. Cooperate with the museum to produce teaching materials, "move" the exhibition into the campus, and create a visit and study in the museum ... In the future, rich activities will guide students to understand the world.
Developing museum courses in primary and secondary schools
The "Opinions" mentioned that it is necessary to develop a series of activity courses in museums, fully tap museum resources, and research and develop a series of activity courses in nature, history, science and technology in combination with the cognitive laws of primary and secondary school students and the needs of school education and teaching. Many children are "skimming flowers" when visiting the museum, and they don't know much about the exhibitions and collections in the museum. The "Opinions" pointed out that museum manuals, guide maps, supplementary reading materials, pocket books, comics and so on. Students should be guided to use museum resources to creatively carry out activities and auxiliary learning, and constantly explore a complete museum learning model to improve the learning effect of museums. In the choice of museums, it is best to combine the books recently read by children with the questions raised by children, and find some combination points to connect museums with children's life and cognition.
After determining the museum, children can be encouraged to browse the museum's website first, learn some knowledge points and interesting points related to the exhibition, and do "preview homework" before visiting. When children put their energy into an exhibition and learn a lot of background knowledge, they will naturally have enthusiasm when visiting. Many parents take their children to visit museums with a strong purpose, and even give them too many hard indicators, such as assigning homework that children don't like.
And these will only backfire. The main purpose of the visit is to see and experience, pay attention to details and stimulate children's enthusiasm.
During the exhibition, children will lose interest and get bored. At this time, the guidance of teachers and parents in interest will also play a great role.
Interest is the best teacher to make children like museums. Some parents take their children to visit museums, hoping that they can see everything and play with all the exhibits that can be played. In fact, on the one hand, this way of parents destroys children's concentration, on the other hand, it also hinders children from learning what they are really interested in.
Take children to visit museums. Don't treat museums as scenic spots, shopping malls, playgrounds and theme parks. Don't cover everything. When children visit museums, they must consider their age and acceptance.
Children have different interests at different ages.
At the beginning, when taking children to museums, you can choose venues with more interactive projects and experience projects, such as science and technology museums and natural museums, which are easy to guide children to participate.
