Design of physics lesson based on the ideas of developmental teaching

Abstract

Purpose. The goal is to develop a design kit for physics lesson, which is based on the ideas of developmental teaching. Methodology. This work is based on the concept of deve-lopmental teaching proposed by G.D.Kirillova. This concept creates the environment for students to obtain a general know-ledge and modes of activity without assistance. Results. The structure of a physics lesson is defined by the necessity to guide students towards the unassisted conclusions. Lesson consists of analytical stage, stage of systematization and generalization and the stage of using of general knowledge as a mode of activity. While the collective form of teaching is mainly used during analytical stage of the lesson and individual during the stage of systematization and generalization, the use of the frontal form of teaching prevails during the stage of utilization of general knowledge as a mode of activity. The lesson design kit decreases the regulation of students’ activity and promotes self-sufficiency of the students as they move through the lesson stages. Teaching technics are the building blocks of the designer kit, they give exploratory features to the students’ activities and correspond to the age features of the students. Each stage of the lesson can be implemented as either a combination of teaching methods, or their synthesis. Design kit allows to diversify lessons to the great extent. Recommendations for design kit usage make it easier for teacher to work with it. Practical implications. Teaching process in the general education school.
