摘要:

我们描述了一种方法来介绍物理高中学生没有编程的背景,计算解决问题的经验。我们的方法建立在建模教学改革课程所取得的巨大进步。这种方法强调NRC K-12科学标准框架所强调的“开发和使用模型”和“计算思维”的实践。我们教9年级的学生在建模指令为基础的物理课程使用VPython编程环境构建计算模型。建模教学课程中的数值计算提供了课程中不同的力和运动模型之间的一致性,将课程采用的各种表示联系起来,并将课程扩展到包括纯分析方法无法访问的现实世界问题。

英文摘要:

We describe a way to introduce physics high school students with no background in programming to computational problem-solving experiences. Our approach builds on the great strides made by the Modeling Instruction reform curriculum. This approach emphasizes the practices of "Developing and using models" and "Computational thinking" highlighted by the NRC K-12 science standards framework. We taught 9th-grade students in a Modeling-Instruction-based physics course to construct computational models using the VPython programming environment. Numerical computation within the Modeling Instruction curriculum provides coherence among the curriculum's different force and motion models, links the various representations which the curriculum employs, and extends the curriculum to include real-world problems that are inaccessible to a purely analytic approach.
