For the "Fundamentals of Computer Application" teaching characteristics and teaching strategies

Abstract: <<Computer Application>> in vocational schools, non-Computer majors of the compulsory public basic course. Other Computer-related courses are also learning pilot program. Purpose is to enable students from the perspective of Computer Applications, master Computer, network and other related information technology, basic knowledge and basic skills. For the future with computer knowledge and technical expertise to solve real problems lay a good foundation, according to the non-computer science vocational school computer teaching status and characteristics of the object. Article focuses on basic computer Applications and teaching methods of improvement.

Paper Keywords: vocational schools, non-computer professional <<Computer Application>> teaching methods
First, the teaching status of the object analysis
In recent years. Because of the uneven development of regional information technology education, new science students, the level of computer knowledge can be divided into three levels: a few students have mastered basic computer skills, they learn there is no pressure in this course, most students before enrollment is limited to simple document editing, the initial Application of computer networks that send and receive e-mail and online chat, but the basics are still not reached the goal of teaching the computer, but they can easily meet the status quo, that they play a good game, is a computer science well: there are a few students from remote mountainous areas. Computer knowledge is almost a blank. That the computer is very mysterious, want to learn but there are psychological fear and inferiority. Freshmen level of computer knowledge when it presents a very different, they want to acquire knowledge of the requirements of different nature. For this situation, and basic computer courses of their own characteristics and laws. Our teaching methods and curriculum experiments conducted in-depth discussion and improvement, achieved good teaching results.

Second, the teaching method
(A) strengthen the teaching content design
Teaching content design is based on curriculum, teaching purposes and characteristics of the object, combined with the characteristics of the course and the actual situation of students, the use of systems ideas and methods, all the elements of teaching to an optimized combination of teaching structure. Teaching content and teaching in order to achieve optimum results.

Computer-based teaching content. In addition to basic computer knowledge, the outstanding feature is that it keeps track of the latest developments in computer technology, developments, and related new knowledge and new knowledge throughout the teaching content, so teachers need to carefully design each lesson teaching content.

1. The establishment of the teaching goals. Teaching objectives should be established on the basis of the purpose of teaching. With concrete, actionable language to be expressed, so that teaching objectives specific, orderly and clear.

2. Determine the teaching of this content teaching content is the core of instructional design, teachers should pay attention to outline the services, individualized, closely linked to target and focus. As students of varying levels of computer knowledge. If you use the old methods of teaching, some students may meet the status quo, loss of interest in learning. In order to meet the learning needs of all levels of students, teachers to enhance teaching content level. Stimulate their interest in learning. Adding new elements in the teaching process, such as what is the new standard interface USB. What is the flash drive. And the use of mobile storage and features. Such as these new technologies, new knowledge, is not the contents of the textbooks. Teachers through the organization to expand the content. To present the latest computer technology to show to everyone. Could well stimulate students interest in learning.

Computer Application is a very practical course, teachers in the classroom can not explain the continuous theoretical knowledge, but can not leave alone, allow students to freely operate in the teaching process, we first formulate a planned phase of teaching goals. Each lesson should have a speaking with the main focus. Each chapter to set a number of hands-on experiments to practice, consolidate, both practical and are not familiar with some advanced features and use of skills, but also a planned, phased approach to explain the exercise, to stimulate enthusiasm for learning, so that each two levels of students have been the joy of success, such as talking about the Word word-processing application software, we are more familiar than the common features experimental class-based machine. Word provides a very useful on the Mail Merge feature to highlight, through the various stages of operation, training, different students have different levels of harvest and feelings.

Second, goals must pay attention to the design stage and reasonable distribution of lectures and operation time. If teachers can use when talking about PowerPoint succinctly and training methods because of the relatively simple application of theoretical knowledge, emphasis on lectures form the structure of the document, hyperlink technology, slide layout, the application of multimedia technology in teaching process, teachers first demonstrate some simple, and provide some type of animated GIF files small picture, and then allow students to freely play, and strive to make everyone be able to complete the final stages of a content integrity. Clear structure, beautiful, dynamic effects with music and picture slide lecture presentation.

(C) strengthen the person teaching the individual teaching
Compared with traditional teaching methods. Computer-assisted instruction most significant advantage is conducive to individualized instruction in support of network resources, students can share more of the teaching resources in the choice of learning content, learning and progress of control, students great deal of autonomy and initiative. From the past passive learning to active learning.

(D) strengthen the teaching content of hierarchical design
In the teaching process, teachers should be based on the object of this curriculum, teaching objectives, teaching content, teaching resources and conditions. Take full advantage of the integration of multimedia and interactivity. Stratified design of the teaching content: basic grasp the contents of the expansion of the content, focus and difficulty, together with a certain degree of difficulty of the operation exercises, made into a simple, easy to learn multimedia courseware production of a good multimedia courseware on the file server As a shared resource of multimedia courseware is not only used in class presentations, students can also according to their actual needs, can visit to learn lessons after school. Quick to understand and master a good student learning in a self-operating computer, you can choose the depth of learning courseware content or training content, and may be repeated based on the less fortunate students to learn and practice a pArticular content, until the master. This would form a lively student-centered learning situation, and effectively to improve teaching efficiency.

(E) the use of information technology teaching methods
Full use of electronic teaching equipment. Or make a reasonable choice of CAI courseware in teaching. Each class has become an effective teaching methods to be used due to learning, learning places and learning the timing has a lot of flexibility, so it is more suitable for different levels of teaching objects.

Short. Objects according to different teachers, teaching, flexible use of teaching methods, can effectively motivate students motivation to learn. Stimulate student learning initiative, enthusiasm: the right classroom design ideas, and scientific design methods, to strengthen the teaching content design phase objectives, to improve teaching efficiency is of great practical significance: the individualized teaching of individualized appropriate use of computer-aided instruction, can make this seemingly simple program the door to new forms of content and new display in front of students.
