Abstract


Prof. Han-Zhuang ZHANG is currently a full professor in Jilin University and serves as a National Famous Teacher of China. He has rich experiences in physics education over the past 27 years. His courses are selected to be the official teaching materials in “Textbook for the 12th five-year plan”, “National quality course”, “National quality resources sharing course”, “Video open classes in Chinese universities” and “National quality MOOCs”.
Prof. Zhang’s teaching philosophy is “The greatest truths are the simplest”. He is particularly experienced in using multimedia resources to motivate students' initiative and enthusiasm. His teaching aims at not only passing on the knowledge in Physics, but also cultivating students’ scientific thinking skills which would be useful outside the classroom.
In this talk, Prof. Zhang will share his experience in how to cultivate students' ability while passing on physics knowledge. He will introduce his teaching idea of “The greatest truths are the simplest” and how to integrate the connotation and external resources of a course. He takes the application cases of physics principles as a guidance, combining with the multimedia resources (including more than 200 real object demonstration, more than 20 AR showing and more than 100 animations), to cultivate the students’ scientific thoughts, imaginal thinking and application abilities. Through his education method, the teacher can well mobilize students' initiative and enthusiasm, and finally improve the quality of teaching.

張漢壯教授就職于吉林大學物理學院,國家萬人計畫教學名師。從事多年物理教學工作,是“十二五”國家規劃教材、國家精品課、國家精品資源分享課、中國大學視頻公開課、國家精品線上開放課程等的負責人。他以“大道至簡”為教學理念,採用多種類型的資訊化資源為教學手段,實現教師的主導作用與學生的主動精神的結合,在傳授物理知識的同時培養學生能力。
本报告以传授物理知识与培养学生能力有机结合为出发点,从课程的内涵与外在资源两个方面,介绍了如何以大道至简的教学理念,如何以物理学原理的应用性案例为导引,如何以200余个实物演示、20余个AR演示、100余个动画演示等多种类型的信息化资源为教学手段,最终达到培养学生的科学思维能力、形象思维能力和应用能力,实现教师的主导作用与学生主动精神的有机结合,提高教学质量的目的。

Coffee and tea will be served 20 minutes prior to the seminar.
