1、《戰(zhàn)后資本主義世界經(jīng)濟體系的形成》是人教版高中歷史必修Ⅱ第八單元第22課,學(xué)時為1課時?!稓v史必修Ⅱ》一書用古今貫通、中外關(guān)聯(lián)的八個專題來著重反映人類社會經(jīng)濟和社會生活領(lǐng)域發(fā)展進程中的重要史實。從第一單元勾勒“古代中國經(jīng)濟的基本結(jié)構(gòu)與特點”再到第八單元“世界經(jīng)濟的全球化趨勢”,以歷史唯物主義觀點清晰闡明經(jīng)濟全球化是世界生產(chǎn)力發(fā)展的要求和結(jié)果,是不以人的意志為轉(zhuǎn)移的歷史必然趨勢。第八單元的標題是《世界經(jīng)濟的全球化趨勢》,作為最后一單元,從內(nèi)容上講,有強烈的時代感和現(xiàn)實意義,是全書內(nèi)容的總結(jié)與升華展望。提起“全球化”這個十年前才首次出現(xiàn)在美國《商業(yè)周刊》的新名詞,如今卻是地球人都知道了。然而究竟什么是全球化?作為一歷史現(xiàn)象,全球化有其自身內(nèi)部嚴密完整的體系,其中核心之一便是制度、規(guī)則的全球化,而這正是本課內(nèi)容的著力點。
環(huán)節(jié)四 情感升華,感悟生活播放《愛我中華》,感受祖國的偉大,民族的團結(jié)。設(shè)計意圖:使學(xué)生感受偉大的中華民族的精神,內(nèi)心產(chǎn)生共鳴,抒發(fā)強烈的愛國熱情。教師帶領(lǐng)學(xué)生一起合唱,用歌聲結(jié)束本堂課內(nèi)容,能再次喚起學(xué)生的愛國情感,使學(xué)生認識到:維護國家統(tǒng)一和民族團結(jié)是每個公民的義務(wù)。環(huán)節(jié)五 課堂小結(jié) 鞏固知識本節(jié)課我采用線索性的板書,整個知識結(jié)構(gòu)一目了然,為了充分發(fā)揮學(xué)生在課堂的主體地位,我將課堂小結(jié)交由學(xué)生完成,請學(xué)生根據(jù)課堂學(xué)習(xí)的內(nèi)容,結(jié)合我的板書設(shè)計來進行小結(jié),以此來幫助教師在第一時間掌握學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)信息的反饋,同時培養(yǎng)學(xué)生歸納分析能力、概括能力。本節(jié)課,我根據(jù)建構(gòu)主義理論,強調(diào)學(xué)生是學(xué)習(xí)的中心,學(xué)生是知識意義的主動建構(gòu)者,是信息加工的主體,要強調(diào)學(xué)生在課堂中的參與性、以及探究性,不僅讓他們懂得知識,更讓他們相信知識,并且將知識融入到實踐當(dāng)中去,最終達到知、情、意、行的統(tǒng)一。
由此引導(dǎo)學(xué)生的深思,學(xué)生通過合作探究,幫助學(xué)生認識到不注重思想道德修養(yǎng),即使掌握了豐富的科學(xué)知識,也難以避免人格上的缺失,甚至危害社會。進而總結(jié)出關(guān)系二:加強思想道德修養(yǎng),能夠促進科學(xué)文化修養(yǎng)??茖W(xué)文化修養(yǎng)的意義播放感動中國人物徐本禹先進事跡短片。學(xué)生觀看完視頻后,思考:從徐本禹的事跡中,我們可以了解到我們加強科學(xué)文化修養(yǎng)的根本意義是什么?引導(dǎo)學(xué)生結(jié)合自身體會,發(fā)表各自見解,在此基礎(chǔ)上幫助學(xué)生總結(jié)出,要使自己的思想道德境界不斷升華,為人民服務(wù)的本領(lǐng)不斷提高,成為一個真正有知識文化涵養(yǎng)的人,成為一個脫離低級趣味的人、有益于人民的人。知識點三:追求更高的思想道德目標根據(jù)教材110探究活動(思想道德的差異、反應(yīng)人們世界觀、人生觀、價值觀的差異)思考:用公民的基本道德規(guī)范來衡量這些觀點,你贊成哪些觀點?反對哪些觀點?小組進行合作探究,引導(dǎo)學(xué)生根據(jù)公民基本道德規(guī)范對這些價值觀進行評析。
(3)改造主觀世界同改造客觀世界的關(guān)系。改造客觀世界同改造主觀世界,是相互聯(lián)系、相互作用的。改造主觀世界是為了更好地改造客觀世界,人們在改造客觀世界的同時也改造著自己的主觀世界。通過自覺改造主觀世界,又能提高改造客觀世界的能力。師:人們對自己的思想道德境界的追求,是永遠止境的。讓我們共同努力,在踐行社會主義思想道德的過程中,不斷追求更高的目標,像無數(shù)先輩那樣,加入到為共產(chǎn)主義遠大理想而奮斗的行列中吧!課堂小結(jié)通過本節(jié)課學(xué)習(xí)使我們認識到面對現(xiàn)實生活中的思想道德沖突,加強知識文化修養(yǎng)和思想道德修養(yǎng),不斷追求更高的思想道德目標的必要性;把握了知識文化修養(yǎng)與思想道德修養(yǎng)的含義及其相互關(guān)系;明確了我們應(yīng)該和怎樣追求更高的思想道德目標;認識到這是一個永無止境的過程。我們要腳踏實地,從現(xiàn)在做起、從點滴小事做起,不斷提高知識文化修養(yǎng)和思想道德修養(yǎng),追求更高的思想道德目標。
1.做學(xué)問之前首先學(xué)會做人2.知識文化修養(yǎng)和思想道德修養(yǎng)的關(guān)系三.追求更高的思想道德目標㈤ 說教學(xué)評價和反思:1.這節(jié)課主要是以學(xué)生為主體,老師為主導(dǎo),讓學(xué)生充分發(fā)表自己的看法,把理論的知識結(jié)合在實際的日常生活中,鼓勵學(xué)生充分發(fā)表自己的意見,能調(diào)動學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)的積極性,達到教學(xué)目的。這節(jié)課學(xué)生討論,發(fā)言的機會很多,但由于我校的學(xué)生的基礎(chǔ)薄弱,在發(fā)言時難免偏離老師引導(dǎo)的方向,甚至出現(xiàn)毫不相干的說法,由于本人經(jīng)驗不夠此時如何去引導(dǎo)他們可能做的還不夠好。2.新課程的教學(xué),如何突破書本知識的局限,延伸更深層次的內(nèi)容是一個難題。本節(jié)課在知識的處理上,把道德的重要性與道德的層次兩個知識點補充了進去,目的是讓學(xué)生在學(xué)習(xí)之前有一個情感的鋪墊,從而更好地達到教學(xué)目標。
反思感悟用基底表示空間向量的解題策略1.空間中,任一向量都可以用一個基底表示,且只要基底確定,則表示形式是唯一的.2.用基底表示空間向量時,一般要結(jié)合圖形,運用向量加法、減法的平行四邊形法則、三角形法則,以及數(shù)乘向量的運算法則,逐步向基向量過渡,直至全部用基向量表示.3.在空間幾何體中選擇基底時,通常選取公共起點最集中的向量或關(guān)系最明確的向量作為基底,例如,在正方體、長方體、平行六面體、四面體中,一般選用從同一頂點出發(fā)的三條棱所對應(yīng)的向量作為基底.例2.在棱長為2的正方體ABCD-A1B1C1D1中,E,F分別是DD1,BD的中點,點G在棱CD上,且CG=1/3 CD(1)證明:EF⊥B1C;(2)求EF與C1G所成角的余弦值.思路分析選擇一個空間基底,將(EF) ?,(B_1 C) ?,(C_1 G) ?用基向量表示.(1)證明(EF) ?·(B_1 C) ?=0即可;(2)求(EF) ?與(C_1 G) ?夾角的余弦值即可.(1)證明:設(shè)(DA) ?=i,(DC) ?=j,(DD_1 ) ?=k,則{i,j,k}構(gòu)成空間的一個正交基底.
師:在科學(xué)發(fā)展過程中,前一個理論體系的不完善之處,往往是新的研究和新的發(fā)現(xiàn)的突破口。開普勒之后,意大利天文學(xué)家伽利略創(chuàng)制了天文望遠鏡,用更加精確的觀察繼續(xù)發(fā)展和驗證哥白尼創(chuàng)立的新天文學(xué)理論。除了用望遠鏡進行天文觀察以外,伽利略還開始進行自然科學(xué)的實驗研究,哪位同學(xué)能給大家講一講伽利略在比薩斜塔上所作的關(guān)于物體自由下落的實驗?生:(講述這一實驗)師:所以,伽利略在科學(xué)方面更加重要的貢獻是奠定了近代實驗科學(xué)的基礎(chǔ)。(2)實驗科學(xué)和唯物主義師:伽利略從實踐上開辟了實驗科學(xué)的方法,而英國唯物主義哲學(xué)家培根則從理論上闡述了實驗科學(xué)的方法——歸納法。培根和伽利略同被稱為實驗科學(xué)之父,培根還有一句影響深刻的名言:“知識就是力量”,表明了他注重知識,尊崇科學(xué)的精神。我們再來概括一下意大利哲學(xué)家布魯諾的唯物主義思想,是否有同學(xué)可以簡述布魯諾的生平事跡?
Example:One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by sending newspapers door to door found that he only had one dime(一角)left. He was so hungry that he decided to beg for a meal at the next house.However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do I owe you?” “You don’t owe me anything,” she replied, “Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness.” “Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart.” With these words, Howard Kelly left that house.Years later the woman became badly ill and was finally sent to the hospital in a big city. Dr. Howard Kelly, now famous, was called in. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Dressed in his doctor’s clothes, Dr. Kelly went into her room and recognized her at once. From that day on, he gave special attention to her, and decided to do his best to save her life.At last the woman was saved. Dr. Kelly asked the business office to pass the final bill to him. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to the woman’s room. She was afraid to open it because she was sure that it would take the rest of her life to pay for it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill caught her attention. She read these words: “Paid in full with a glass of milk, Dr. Howard Kelly.” Tear of joy flooded her eyes.

How much do you know about Chinatown of San Francisco ?Chinatown is a main living place for Chinese immigrants, where you can see many Chinese-style buildings, costumes, operas, restaurants, music and even hear Chinese.Step 2 Before reading ---Predict the contentWhat is the writer’s purpose of writing this text ? How do you know ?From the title(Welcome to Chinatown) and some key words from the text(tourist, visit, visitors, experience), we can know the purpose of the text is to introduce Chinatown and show the relationship between Chinese culture and American culture.
The themes of this part are “Talk about how to become an astronaut” and “Talk about life in space”. As Neil Armstrong said “Mystery creates wonder and wonder is the basis of man’s desire to understand. Space is difficult for human to reach, therefore, humans are full of wonders about it. However, if wanting to achieve the dream of reaching the Moon, some of our human should work hard to be an astronaut at first. Part A(Talk about how to become an astronaut) is a radio interview in a radio studio, where the host asked the Chinese astronauts about his story how to become an astronaut. Yang Liwei told his dreamed to be an astronaut since childhood. Then he worked hard to get into college at 22. The next 10 years, he gradually became an experienced pilot. At the same time, to be an astronaut, he had to study hard English, science and astronomy and trained hard to keep in good physical and mental health and to practise using space equipment. Part B (Talk about life in space) is also an interview with the astronaut Brown, who is back on the earth. The host Max asked about his space life, such as his emotion about going back the earth, the eating, shower, brushing, hobbies and his work. Part A and Part B are interviews. So expressing curiosity about the guests’ past life is a communicative skill, which students should be guided to learn.1. Students can get detailed information about how Yang Liwei became an astronaut and Max’s space life.2. Students learn to proper listening strategy to get detailed information---listening for numbers and taking notes.3. Students can learn related sentences or phrases to express their curiosity like “ I wish to know...” “I’d love to know...”4. Students can learn more about the space and astronauts, even be interested in working hard to be an astronaut
The theme of this unit focuses on “space exploration.” Students will learn about the training and experience needed to become an astronaut. The text is mainly about the development of space exploration. On the one hand, the text helps students to have a good understanding about the great feats humans have achieved, on the other hand, they will further understand the contributions that we Chinese have achieved, and feel confident and proud about our homeland and strengthen their love for our country. The teacher should instruct students to aim high and study harder to make great progress in the space career if possible.1. Read about the development and value of space exploration.2. Explore the mysteries of the universe and the achievements in space exploration.3. Skillfully use the vocabulary of this text to cultivate self-study ability 4. Develop cooperative learning ability through discussion.1. Enable the Ss to talk about the development and value of space exploration.2. Guide the Ss to summarize the main idea of each paragraph as well as the main idea of the text.3. Help Ss comprehend the main reasons for space exploration. Multi-media, textbook, notebooks.Step 1: Warming up and predictionLook at the title and the pictures of the text and predict what the text will be about?2. What are the main reasons for space exploration?

1. 這個寓言是一個關(guān)于一位國王古寓言。 The fable is an old fable about a king.2.作者用這個故事讓讀者對于社區(qū)的問題負有個人責(zé)任的必要印象深刻。The author used the story to impress upon readers with the need to take personal responsibility for problems in the community.3. 這個故事十分成功的實現(xiàn)了它的目的。The story was quite successful in achieving its purpose.Step 7 WritingPlease write a review of the story according the outline above.The fable is an old fable about a king who thought his people are lazy, so he put a large stone in the middle of the road and hides and waited to see if anyone will try to move it.The author used this story to impress upon readers with the need to take personal responsibility for problems in the community. The story was quite successful in achieving its purpose, and I liked it because it had a clear moral.However, while the moral of the story is clear, the actions of the king seemed pointless to me, because none of the characters in the story learnt anything. For this reason, I think there are better stories that can be used to impress upon people with the need for personal responsibility.Step 8 Pair workExchange drafts with a partner. Use this checklist to help your partner revise his/her draft.1. Does the writer give a short description of the story ?2. Does the description include the most important details of the story ?3. Does the writer give his or her opinion about the character or their actions ?4. Is the review well-organised ? 5. Does the writer use the -ing form as the adverbial correctly in the writing ?6. Are there any grammar, spelling, or punctuation errors ?Step 9 HomeworkPut up your revised draft in the classroom or read it to your class.
1. In Picture 1 and Picture 2, where do you think they are from? How do you know?From their wearings, we can know they are from ethnic minority of China--- Miao and Dong.Picture 1, they are playing their traditional instrument lusheng in their traditional costumes.Picture 2. the girls are Miao because they wear their traditional costumes and silver accessory.2. In Picture 3, can you find which village it is? What time is it in the picture?It is Dong village. It is at night. Step 2 While-listeningJustin met a new friend while traveling in Guizhou. Listen to their conversation and complete the summaries below.Part 1Justin and Wu Yue watched some Miao people play the lusheng. The instrument has a history of over 3,000 years and it is even mentioned in the oldest collection of Chinese poetry. Then they watched the lusheng dance. Justin wanted to buy some hand-made silver/traditional accessories as souvenirs. He was told that the price will depend on the percentage of silver. Part 2They will go to a pretty Dong minority village called Zhaoxing. they will see the drum towers and the wind and rain bridges. They may also see a performance of the Grand Song of the Dong people.Step 3 Post-listening---TalkingWork in groups. Imagine Justin is telling some friends about his trip to Guizhou. One of you is Justin and the rest of you are his friends. Ask Justin questions about his trip and experience. The following expressions may help you.
Discuss these questions in groups.Q1: Have you ever been to a place that has a diverse culture ? What do you think about the culture diversity ?One culturally diverse place that I have been to is Harbin, the capital city of Heilongjiang Province. I went there last year with my family to see the Ice and Snow Festival, and I was amazed at how the culture as different to most other Chinese cities. There is a big Russian influence there, with beautiful Russian architecture and lots of interesting restaurants. I learnt that Harbin is called “the Oriental Moscow” and that many Russians settled there to help build the railway over 100 years ago.Q2: What are the benefits and challenges of cultural diversity ?The benefits: People are able to experience a wide variety of cultures, making their lives more interesting, and it can deepen the feelings for our national culture, it is also helpful for us to learn about other outstanding culture, which helps improve the ability to respect others. The challenges: People may have trouble communicating or understanding each other, and it may lead to disappearance of some civilizations and even make some people think “The western moon is rounder than his own.”Step 7 Post reading---RetellComplete the passage according to the text.Today, I arrived back in San Francisco, and it feels good (1) _____(be) back in the city again.
