Innovation is the soul of a nation or country, innovation is a nation or state the basis for survival and development, while the fine arts curriculum is recognized as the cultivation of creativity, one of the most effective course, so in art teaching, not only to to teach art culture, but also to students of innovation consciousness and creativity. In teaching, I tried the following methods.

1, reducing copying, encourage innovation quality.

People are accustomed to paint “a lot like” to assess student art work, leading some teachers to the easy way, only copying works of the children, parents to children to buy copy of the album or stick figure-like art books. A few simple teachings of teachers, teachers say, the students listen, students Zhaomaohuahu to carry out boring copy, have constrained the students thinking and imagination, neglected the cultivation of children’s abilities, but also deprive students of a rich imagination. If the art teacher at the black board drew a rabbit, and then carrying in each grade classes will be small blackboard on a link, say, “You shining on painting it, class is paid up.” Operation to pay up, the teachers have become accustomed to “paint like monsters”, “painting technique is good” as the evaluation criteria, have greater subjective and arbitrary, ignoring the diversity of art performance, ignoring the child’s psychological, suppress the student’s imagination. This causes students to works of thousands of people side, unison, the lack of individuality and creativity. This long run, will only Wurenzaidi. Innovation is the spirit of art, Art of Innovation. To minimize the teaching of boring copy, multi-close to student life, less Zhaomaohuahu. Students should be encouraged bold performance, to encourage students to works of art for others to express their unique views boldly. In addition, the teaching content should be enlightening and fun, using scientific and rational teaching methods to stimulate creativity among students desire to make it a unique artistic individuality and creative accomplishment.

2, stimulate the imagination and cultivate innovation.

Imagination is the source of artistic creation, but also a source of scientific invention. Primary School Art Teaching by the traditional concepts of education for and patterns, and the “re-teach light participation, re-light techniques to create a” so seriously dampened the enthusiasm of students, relative to obliterate the main body of students and creativity, greatly narrowing the students to imagine space, so that the teaching lost its vitality.

Art New Curriculum requirements “Teachers should be based on a variety of lively and interesting teaching methods, such as film, television, video, Fan painting, visits, interviews, travel, and even stories, games, music, etc. to guide students to enhance the image of the feelings of competence and Imagine the ability to stimulate students interest in art. “Art is a visual art, gives a strong visual impact and appeal. Studies have shown that a person received more than 80% of information provided by vision. By gathering some materials relevant to the content of the animated video, using animation to stimulate students imagination, to stimulate students interest and desire to explore, students learn music, love learning, thinking and imagination also came into being, and then on this basis create, things have become a natural outgrowth. For example, in teaching, “If I become smaller,” a class, through the play “Thumbelina” video and “A Voyage to Lilliput and Brobdingnag” movie clips. Students were attracted at once, staring into the big screen and seriously enjoy. A very high interest in learning, teachers encourage students to bold imagination and timely performance by way of text or records or paintings depicting scenes of their own change turnaround in an hour. Another example is to teach “ancient text” a class, because the materials presented by Oracle and hieroglyphics and other abstract things, students to understand there are certain difficulties. Downloaded from the Internet in China ink animated classic “Thirty six words,” the film by the father taught his son to read, explaining hieroglyphs, indicating the origin of Chinese characters, vivid and lively. Thus stimulate the imagination of students, encouraging students to imitate the way the ancients created characters, create their own fun, “text”, composed of good-looking picture.

3, a variety of materials, production flexibility and diversity to enhance students the spirit of innovation.

In the art of teaching, teachers are often restricted to students drawing tools and materials, uniform standards, this could easily lead to thousands of people side, unison situation. If students painted landscapes, are sun trees, the lack of creativity, denied the student’s personality. Teachers should try to reduce all kinds of unnecessary restrictions and constraints, so that students have a free hand, by a bold imagination to picture in my mind in the world. The students to understand and respect the feelings and experiences, to understand and communicate with students in mind, promote self-learning, inquiry-based learning and cooperative learning, active construction of knowledge and activities, interact with others, and the environment interact to achieve the purpose of the further development of its own. To promote the students with different personalities and tap the potential of the students themselves, teachers should guide students according to their own hobbies, interests, and expertise to choose a variety of drawing tools and materials, technique, bold performance, free creativity, you can use a pencil, but also water brush , crayon, oil pastel, color pencils, etc., cloth, wire, feathers, plastic, twigs, glass, wood … … and so on can be a free choice, can draw, paste, cut, carved, rolled, folded and so on, to experience the kinds of materials, production flexibility and diversity to enhance creativity, so easy to play to the imagination of students.

4, design stratified operation, so that every child make progress.

The traditional teaching is to select outstanding works of art, resulting in many students with age and grade of growth and more and do not like art, so to reform the traditional teaching model for all students so that each child has a right to its own unique way to study art and enjoy art activities, fun and express their own feelings, which need to be stratified job creation, the students according to their own interests, hobbies and abilities freedom of choice, so that every child has harvesting and development. For example, in “Kite flying all over the sky,” a lesson, some students due to production of materials, tools, capacity and other reasons, making kites have a certain degree of difficulty, students can write about feelings or talk about kite-flying kite-flying in their own experience, so that different levels of students are able to actively participate in arts learning, to enjoy the joy of success and happiness, so that each level of the student’s personality and abilities can be developed and improved.

In addition, to encourage students to direct use of brush to paint on paper in large practice, using a variety of waste materials in art creation. Many students do tend to draw with pencil first, and then sketched outline of brushes, etc., should encourage students to describe the direct use of brush, a pen to be sure and bold. Some of the students in the 16 to open a small painting on paper, students should be encouraged in large paper (4 open and above) to create, enable students to view a more open, more rational and bold composition, but not limited to writing with a small paper.

Once I am a literary specialty of Health, now I am a literary specialty health coach and manager. Eleven years of work process, I always wonder: Why should we recruit cultural strengths of students? How can we truly realize the value of secondary school students where the literary and artistic talent?

Current high school students nationwide specialty art building of the contingent of students in Hunan, the overall development of the region is more prone to attach importance to a high standard, the annual art exam are thousands of people, only one thousand people in Hainan. Many colleges and universities across the country for the art of health indicators in Hainan are on the decline, only a few newly opened arts colleges and universities will be more relaxed, even Hainan, the region’s universities are reluctant to local recruitment, a number of provincial colleges and universities admissions index less than 10 , I really do not know the future health of these writers and expertise of the Wang Naqu. Where the problem? Main is the current model of health education literature and art talent just to stay in a single to train professionals mainly ignored the culture of the students to learn and improve ideological and moral aspects.

The last two years, the school dance, literature and art from our specialty candidates in the circumstances, I am deeply felt concerns of parents and students, and ambivalence. 40% of the parents is to be able to enter the elite school and choose a shortcut; 40% of the parents because the kids have this hobby; 10% of the parents is merely to save a school choice costs; an additional 10% of the parents are holding test the state of mind sit. And because school dance, literary and artistic talent of students and management are not standardized, high-intensity caused by a high degree of fatigue, professional training, coupled with a number of theatrical performances and competitions, cultural studies, the study affected the progress of students in cultural studies has deteriorated. Worse still, some girls to a third-year graduate course, heads not see a long, body-aliasing, which are seriously affecting their studies.

Features of Health’s role is twofold, he is an ordinary high school students, but is also a literary health. Due to participation in professional team training, resulting in work schedule is always different from others, when we are ready to eat after school when the specialty of Health have to go to various training venues for training, meals have to wait until after 19 o’clock in order to enjoy, and in order Late repair often is not time for a bath went to the classroom, or some students simply is the next night of the first section was revised to the classroom. Teacher expertise in order to prevent an impact on his classmates to learn, are often placing them in the most corners in the classroom, so specialty health attendant is always present on the students to a number of barriers. The face of such a group, our teacher what to do about them? I think that should do the following:

First, non-discriminatory. Should they be the same with the other students, non-discriminatory treatment to them and manage them. In many Koren teacher’s eyes, they do not like to study a group of children, a group of well-behaved child. Yes, they do not study outstanding, but that is what they choose to be a literary and artistic talent of students one of the reasons; they just arts training, it is because it is their only hobby; they are often not in class, leading to the progress of the basic curriculum unable to keep up, it is because they are often a number of competitions for schools or educational propaganda to go off-site performances ah. We can think of is not from the kids on their own will, if one is to blame, then the school should bear half the responsibility. So I say a child is not wrong and can not be blamed to the kids to look at them as heterogeneous, it should queue up after other students do the same treatment should try to help them delay the culture of tutorial classes.

At this point, I do recommend that schools should develop a viable science education programs, so that expertise of students united in a single class, and the organization of courses according to their expertise, so that they will test the professional class in college very helpful.

Second, the right to guide learning goals, develop a scientific study plans. Health always thought that most of the expertise of professional learning Haojiu Xing, and cultural studies can not learn anyway, so I had lost on the lost bar. The worst-case scenario is that some coaches also think so, so a lot of training coaches are not concerned about the players learning how, only care about whether the increased level of professionalism. The fact is that there are many colleges and universities recruit art expertise in health, which were invisible to these kids one more choice in the past I could only squeeze a number of professional institutions, and spend more money than others, but came out only to go Art Professional this road. However, colleges and universities have an admissions policy that specialty health, then allow them to obtain the A segment than the average student has a new shortcut key universities should encourage them to choose this path. University graduates in the future because they have at least two expertise, in terms of getting a job, but there is a great advantage. However, such institutions tend to have relatively high scores required for admission, he was only high school students than regular admission is only a few points lower, and we usually because there is no systematic training program, the children are mostly used in the training time and effort too much, The time is used in the study are few, and end rehearsals on time is just great feel drowsy, resulting in cultural studies, results often fall short of A paragraph 艺术特长生 colleges and universities admission marks. Those of us in charge of a teacher of gifted and talented should be a high virtuous teachers to deep learning, the development of a scientific study plan so that children in the future can have a good look at the impact of Beijing University, Qinghua University and other famous literary talent of Health.

Third, the training content should be tendency to specialization. Since our previous professional training for secondary school students are a bit amateur-oriented, most are seeking skills and a simple row of programs, resulting in insufficiently standardized dance movements, she is also aliasing, and most important art exam now with the School of Arts students are also put In together, for the students specialty Health, a non-professional groups are relatively disadvantageous position, it should be systematic and specialized professional training is really inevitable.

Fourth, smashing. After the 90 students who are more centered to think about their own problems, very few will stand to think about things that other people’s point of view, so often difficult to manage, will be a lot of things beyond our imagination. Such as puppy love, running away from home overnight Paowang Ba and so on. Therefore, we should be in the training of teachers of literature and art I should do more to guide them to learn to be, learning to life.

Rich vitality of the biology class is not only a basic education, its meaning, and more importantly under the new situation the need for quality education. It refers to the classroom where teachers and students to dedicate themselves, not only to promote the students to master knowledge of biological sciences, awareness-raising level and the ability to apply knowledge, but also constantly surging of life in the classroom experience and growth, to enjoy the creation joy and satisfaction to the quality of life of the brilliant and attractive, thus enhancing people’s spiritual world and the value of life.

So, how to improve the lives of biology class dynamic? Traditional classroom teaching the basic procedures are: review old lessons – Import new lesson – teaching new courses – the consolidation of applications – check the rating, which is characterized by teachers dominate the teaching process, students acquire knowledge in a passive position. As students study the long-term use of acceptance and enhance the student’s dependent, thus weakening their consciousness of the problem, creativity, independence, autonomy and personality. I personally feel that CMC is a teacher-student interaction teaching mode pretty good attempt. CMC is in English Creating Context (the creation of scenarios), Mutuaeactivity (student-teacher interaction), Constructing Knowledge (constructed knowledge) three short phrases. CMC reveals the new curriculum under the conditions of teaching the three basic aspects. CMC teacher-student interaction is the operational procedures for teaching mode: teachers create situations – teachers and students interactive learning – teachers and students work together to build knowledge. Now I am teaching some of the tried and case summary is as follows, also be regarded as a kind of “reflective teaching” bar.

First, do a good job of teaching the beginning part – the creation of scenarios

1, the creation of emotional scenes

Traditional teaching methods often focus only on the knowledge, abilities, teachers in the classroom are frequently condescending preaching, and the formation of one-man, Man Tangguan. Such education, students are not too keen on. New Curriculum Standards pointed out that the teaching should include the knowledge and skills, processes and methods, three aspects of emotion, attitude and values, so I in biological classroom teaching, the students attached great importance to the values of emotion, attitude and correct guidance. Emotional scenes is a psychological atmosphere of group psychological environment. As a teacher, we must by all means, bring a smile into the classroom to give students confidence to tap the emotional content of teaching materials, motivating the students interest in learning, motivation and attitudes. For example, in learning “the role of animals in nature,” when I press clippings from the starting materials to produce a customer is purchasing a frog photos, guide students to talk about their own views, thinking how to deal with this situation should be . Students talk about and much greater interest in, and some say do not eat frogs must start with ourselves, more of the students raised their own pocket money to buy frog Letting Them Go. Highlight the emotions, attitudes, teaching objectives of this study will enable students to understand themselves and the social consequences of positive significance in depicting establish correct attitude towards life and values.

2, the creation of learning scenarios

There are many types of learning situations, regardless of what kind of learning scenario, should be presented in a timely manner to students, outstanding problems, to enable students to pass through reflection and inquiry in order to achieve this goal. For example, we can give students to create the problem scenario, using heuristic questions to guide students to identify problems, ask questions, analyze and solve problems, to fully reflect the teacher-led, student-centered teaching style. For example, “how to design an experiment to test paramecium are alive?”, “How to use semi-permeable membrane devices, identifying concentrations were 10% and 30% sucrose solution?” 1:00 and could not answer the students, teachers can guide their memories of place osmosis, the movement of water molecules is what? Onion epidermal cells plasmolysis What are the conditions? Make these “including but not exposed,” the question for students to think, can play a good enlightening.

3, to provide guidance material

Textbook knowledge is indirect experience, the teachers in the creation of scenarios, you must provide guidance material, which is to connect students direct experience of the bridge approach, is a medium to connect indirect experience will help students to understand from direct experience, as indirect experience, through the exploration of indirect experience into their own direct experience. For example, in studying the “conservation of biological diversity”, analysis of threats to biological diversity, the reason, I gave the students played a FLASH “rest of the fruit” (this film, Hang Nga 2003 Green Contest Winners Cup): deer and boys are good friends, the boy grew up in successful learning achievements and returned to his hometown in the forest someone else opened a factory of disposable chopsticks. Black water, and trees were cut down, and the animals of no fixed abode, panic to flee. Deer in the running, suddenly saw the boy ran without melancholy to him, but then shot the owner of the plant • • • • • • sad songs in Karen Mok, some female students and even cry out. Students can not help but wonder: Why is the type of biological sharp drop? Animals, the rapid economic development has brought about in the end What is this? A beautiful large forest and finally left anything at all? Around us, there are no such examples?

2, reflecting the subjectivity of students – student-teacher interaction

American humanistic psychologists Rogers in the “free learning” in his book states: “Learners threw himself into one of the self-learning, that is, both intellectually and emotionally to participate in the study, and the most durable and most in-depth learning.” in the teaching process, teachers should change the traditional teaching of thinking and behavioral habits, I believe that the ability of students, democratic teaching, the students work hard to create a stage performance, so that students interact with the teacher during the highlight of their dominant position, glow the vitality of life.

Promote self-learning

Each student has a certain ability to learn, teachers to return only when the students take the initiative to learn, embedded in the tremendous potential of students can be released. Traditional mode of education, always first to raise the issue, and then explain, analyze, and the new curriculum reform was initiated to enable students to bring their questions to learn. For example, in studying the “attempt to biological classification”, the guide Xueshengxuewan plant classification, I will give an analysis of the students listed in outline: the classification of animals, on what basis? If the picture of the 11 species of animals, divided into two groups, they are what animals? These two groups of animals for further classification, which can be divided into several categories? You can form along the lines of plant classification solution separate ways do these 11 kinds of animals? How from simple to complex ordered them together? This sub-level, sub-gradient to organize students to discuss the final focus on, and students explore together. This model’s class, students take the initiative, classroom atmosphere, active and positive thinking are fully piqued. Another example is the High School introduction of the study, organized students after school time to investigate media coverage of biological science and technology development, their press clippings, web extracts, etc. organized into books circulated in the class and allow students to each other from the fun, the value, content rich, comprehensive evaluation of all aspects of scoring and decided the best award-winning students make the exchange of power. Teaching in the classroom, teachers can also quote student learning outcomes. As I talking about the “cell differentiation, cancer and aging”, it quoted several students to collect materials: “Stem cells have the potential to transform into a cancer” (Pei Lei students), “so that cancer cells spread to other organs protein “(Li Shuai students),” Telomeres and human life “(according to Liang Zhao students) and so on. This self-learning students, not only have expanded the individual’s knowledge, but also to benefit from teachers and other students.

Learning organizations

In 1983 • Harvard University Distinguished Professor Howard Gardner in his book “the structure of intelligence,” a book presented: There are many people’s intelligence structure, each person’s intelligence structure, at least seven kinds of intelligence, that linguistic intelligence , physical, operational intelligence, interpersonal intelligence, spatial perception intelligence, musical intelligence, mathematical logic, intelligence, intelligent self-awareness and so on, in 1996 Gardner also proposed the first eight kinds of intelligence, that understanding of natural intelligence. The theory put forward in carrying out training creative talents, to promote overall development of students and improve the overall quality of the teaching reform of students today, more practical significance. Each student has their own intelligence strengths, with the help of cooperative learning, students can contribute to the different intelligence structure of the development of biological differences in ability. I was listening to two of Zhang teacher teaching “cell differentiation” also have been inspired by Teacher Chang, designed to provide students with extra-curricular groups investigation “stem cells and the relationship between human health,” and the production of PPT. The classroom, leaving less than half of the lesson time for students to report groups represented. This cooperative learning approach is clearly beloved students, and some students even sent a donation of bone marrow-site initiatives. I was teaching “organelles”, the arrangements for the students a special operations: grouping by color rubber clay model of production of cell structure, each 4-5 people. Students abnormal facial expressions, revealed their inner excitement. Sure enough, the afternoon, there are several groups of students excitedly handed them to produce a good model for the office (although the deadline for the next day). Model of workmanship and colors are quite beautiful, and far beyond my expectations. I was interested to inquire about the production process, the students in animated conversation “briefed” Who with the color, who do mitochondria, black dot is the ribosome • • • • • • In the collaborative learning, students practical ability and cognitive abilities have been strengthened, and truly become the masters of learning, everyone’s linguistic intelligence, interpersonal intelligence and other areas have been developed, biological capacity has also been improved.

The use of role-playing

“Role play” as the teaching activities in a specific form that can stimulate students interest in learning, active classroom atmosphere, but the role-playing is not biology can be applied to any teaching content: those who already have a specific image or vivid describe the classification, morphology, anatomical structure, biological content, without role-playing design; while those with a strong reason or students find that dull abstraction, it is to try to “role play” the best script. It can of abstract into concrete so that the “death” of knowledge back to life, and vividly presented in the visual among students. For example, in learning “the role of animals in nature,” talked about animals, promotion of eco-system, circulation of materials, I arranged a “role play” title: According to the material cycle in the ecosystem to a grassland ecosystem food chain for the cases, improvisation substances in producers, consumers, decomposers transfer process between. Students in the course of performances from time to time a burst of laughter. Teachers for the show, proposed the “cycle of bacteria in the material played what role?”, “Why do students want to write a ‘carbon dioxide and water,’ paper posted back to the blackboard (on behalf of the environment)” and other issues, we are actively answer . Through the performances, the students further understand the “animal in the promotion of eco-system, circulation of materials” in the role, but also deepened the “substance of consumers, producers, break the cycle between the” understanding. “Role play” for equality, harmony, democracy and the formation of the teaching atmosphere and improve student learning biology enthusiasm and ability to express many aspects have played a very large role.

Third, the indirect experience into a direct experience – building knowledge

United States of contemporary well-known instructional design experts, Gagne the study classified as “motivation, comprehend, and to obtain, maintain, memories, general, practice, feedback,” eight stages of self-learning links students to the basic realization of the first three phases of the goal, then five phase can be achieved by building the knowledge part of the multilateral interaction to promote children’s psychological process to be realized. Self-learning knowledge base belonging to construct phase, construction of knowledge is to make students autonomous learning of new knowledge gained to further refine, strengthen, migration, and to construct new knowledge, which in biology into their own quality and enhance the bio-classroom Vitality

How do I create problem scenarios. To guide students to explore their own sexual purposes? This has become a new round of education reform, an important part of the study. National third “active classroom” teaching seminar-curricular activities. In order to implement the curriculum reform is an important step. In this event, three teachers from different schools on the “material instances of transmembrane transport,” a lesson started with the discussion of teaching heterogeneous classes, this paper intends to combine these three classes to talk about their problems on the creation of scenarios some views and experiences.

1, the creation of the importance of the problem scenarios

To enable students to understand the difficult situations faced by scientists. Collecting and processing the required information. Finally reached the inquiry process of problem-solving. So that students find in real life situations and analyzing problems, problem-solving abilities, and these problems are due to this scenario an important prerequisite for the creation of the problem. Therefore, I am biology class teaching, always trying to create problem scenarios. Inspired students & Products enthusiasm for learning. To enable students to create an urgent desire for seeking to obtain new knowledge, in the news and the students create an imbalance between the psychological quest for knowledge, uncoordinated, the students and issues related to the introduction of a scenario being.

Second, the creation of the way the problem scenario

1. The creation of practical problems from everyday life situations

Case 1 Teacher Yang A and B show the label affixed with two mineral water bottles. Which were filled with Stiffness and wilting the greens. Q: “cause these two phenomena are the reasons for what?”

Student replied: “A bottle filled with water, no clean water or a bottle B may be salt.”

Then ask: “how to make the B bottle (wilting of) vegetables and leaves become tender?”

Student A: “to soak vegetables in water, the leaves get in the water restored.”

In this question-answers, and guide students to analyze, students will feel the joy of success and experience the fun of learning biology. Then guide the students to learn can be summed up in high concentration solution of cell water loss, in the low concentration solution of cell-absorbent principle. And in accordance with this principle, enable students to analyze: Why is the ground of the crops nicotine long bad? A one-time crops fertilization would cause too much Why do the “burn MILLER” phenomenon? So. The textbook knowledge and real life link, the students into a real scenario to explore the issue. Easy to understand not only the students have learned. Can also stimulate students to explore their enthusiasm, so that students can actually feel the biological knowledge and our lives, the production actually closely related. Everywhere in life We need to find things.

2. Create problems in the experimental teaching scenario

Experimental inquiry teaching can be used as one of the vehicles, using “problem – - hypothetical – - Experimental Design – Experimental Inquiry – draw conclusions – express exchange” a new model to emphasize the students to explore new knowledge and access to new knowledge through experience to achieve results and the process and try to better train students in scientific literacy.

Teacher Liu Case 2 pre-class collection of students in experimental courses on a one – to explore “plant cells absorb water and water loss,” the issues raised. After the Zhaibian multimedia showcase some of the questions raised by the students. Such as:

(1) Why did you choose the purple onion scale leaf experiment material? Can onion scale leaves with colorless experiment material?

(2) The plant cell is not an infiltration system, which is equivalent to semi-permeable membrane structure?

(3) The plant cell under what circumstances would water loss, water absorption in what circumstances would it?

(4) How do plant cells absorb water and water loss? Water absorption and water loss from the main body where?

(5) If the mass concentration of 0.5g/mL sucrose solution or 5% of the salt solution instead, what are the results ⋯ ⋯ students in hands-on experiments can be raised many questions, so that the students want to know the problem with lectures, can do have to be do not give. Rather than comprehensive. This will not only solve the problem the new materials class tight, but also develop their ability to innovate. Go through the guidance of teachers, so that students quickly grasp the concept of protoplasm layer, the cell under what circumstances the knowledge of water loss and water absorption.

3. Create problems in the multimedia presentation scenario

Multi-media teaching methods through a wealth of maps, text, sound, animation and other vivid scenes, the multi-channel for students to demonstrate against the secret life of students by a number of sensory stimulation, active thinking, the problem thus spark embarked.

Case 3 leaves the teacher demonstrate osmosis unit, the use of multimedia courseware demonstration experiment. Strings to guide students through the issues the panel discussion three issues:

(1) how a device by changing the infiltration conditions so that the funnel and beaker of liquid height difference exist?

(2) If instead of cellophane with a layer of gauze, the liquid inside the funnel tube will increase do?

(3) If not a beaker of water, but the same concentration of sucrose solution. The result? Panellists and students through the analysis of the phenomenon, understanding the role of semi-permeable membrane, and then the role of teachers and students together summarize the infiltration conditions: first a semi-permeable membrane: The second semi-permeable membrane concentration difference exists on both sides of the solution. Students are also very efficient in acquiring this knowledge, but because they observe the side while thinking, thinking skills be trained to improve the comprehension.

Bacteria, the association between the gene and cars? The United States from a bio-fuel companies in this triangular relationship has found a treasure of energy to open the “Golden Key.” Through genetic modification, they make some bacteria have a turning waste into the magical ability – “to eat” is the agricultural waste, but “spit” out of it is directly used as a vehicle power fuel.

Genetically modified bacteria turning waste into treasure

According to the British “The Times” reported June 12, Silicon Valley, California-based LS9’s researchers are using laboratory bacteria this “making oil” project. They use synthetic biology methods, including E. coli, yeast strains of different genetic transformation, to improve the production of hydrocarbons (hydrocarbons) and metabolic pathways. Fermentation of sugar in those under the effect of genetically modified micro-organisms can fully release the energy reserves and, ultimately, into the hydrocarbon fuel can be used, and any can be broken down into sugar, fermented material can be used as a raw material, such as sugar cane, wheat straw and even sawdust.

LS9’s senior director of Greg? Pal said that advances in genetic engineering, genetic modification has greatly enhanced the speed and reduce costs. “5-7 years ago, this process takes several months and several thousands of dollars, but now only a few weeks time, will be able to complete, cost only 2 million dollars.”

By controlling the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) chain length and molecular structure, the researchers will enable bacteria secrete hundreds of different hydrocarbon molecules. LS9 company said they can produce non-sulfur-containing hydrocarbon fuel, and then refining the standard way of producing motor fuel, jet fuel, diesel fuel or other petroleum products.

We hit the sunny day there, from the first sunny day since the snow. The temperature is not quite low, probably zero at 56 degrees. Highway on both sides are mountains, there is sometimes a roadside village, with little farmland. Mixed coniferous and broadleaved forests are secondary forests, there are bamboo. Bamboo lodging, and some burst, and did not burst can continue to live. Everywhere covered with snow and ice are white.

No birds, basically, I remember I saw one. A shrike landed on the wire side of the road is very lonely look.

The car besides me, there is a bird is doing research on the bird is very familiar with, it is easy to find them and see a shadow children will be able to know what the birds. In fact, the mountain before the momentum began to feel wrong, usually this kind of environment, there should be Berau, sparrows, vol tail, Dove, these are the most common resident bird in rural areas. They will fall on the wires, not how far you should go see the 12’s. By the end of February already begun migrating season, migratory birds does not appear.

Chopping block on the “victims”

Anhui Forestry Bureau of the four regions surveyed 130 markets and restaurants, 20 kinds of statistics to 3700 wild animals. This figure also shows that a large number of wild animals died due to snow. Of course, in theory, Yuexi County protected areas are hunting, and wild animals can not be sold in the market, non-protected wild animals, no good. Almost all of the wild animals have entered the ranks of protection. In addition to the national level, two key protection, while a “three have” list, there is economic value, there is research value, useful, non-protected wild animals, including rabbits, sparrows included, into the list. There are also at the provincial level protection, ring-necked pheasant are very common pheasant, which in many provincial protection list.

Anhui zoo patrons

Xiuning County of wildlife rescue center is now pegged to two brands, one rescue center, one zoo. So that we are interested in drilling in the animal cage and feeding the sparrows were in the ambulance near the center we see a lot of birds, there are eight kinds of 170, including sparrows, green parrot Bulbul. This place is because a relatively low elevation, more is omnivorous birds, such as the Red-Brown-breasted Bulbul, as well as wild starling and the Hill Myna.

Desert long-legged ant: It’s the brain has identified the visual and olfactory signs of the navigation system.

As we all know, after getting lost in the desert, it will stop turning in circles. Scientists can not help but ask: In the absence of any signs of navigation, the desert ants how to find the direction of home? A new study shows that the desert ants can smell and visual cues of local input navigation system, in order to find their way home.

Prior to this, scientists have always thought that living in Tunisia, on the ground barren salt desert ants Cataglyphis fortis (long-legged desert ants) is a simple to navigate through the vision of insects. However, the German Chemical Ecology Research Center Kathrin Knaden, Bill Hansson, and Max Planck by gas chromatography (gas chromatography, referred to as “GC”, a gas as the mobile phase chromatographic analysis.) Confirmed that the desert micro-habitat land (Microhabitats) exists in the unique smell of features to help ants return to the cave.

The researchers identify several of these characteristics in the smell, and training for land-based life experience of the ants to identify those smells – the smell can guide them to find the hidden nest entrance. Ants were able to smell the cave entrance with a link, and this smell and other odors to distinguish. They can even smell from the four kinds of mixed distinguish that unique odor. Compared with several mixed smell, the smell seemed to be more conducive to a single ants find the way home.

Pigeons are the use of the environment are usually in some sort of smell as their own navigation signs, and most ants through pheromone secreted themselves for their own navigation. However, for Cataglyphis fortis, they often go to feed up to 100 meters away, where the heat and the ever-changing food, usually so that the smell of their own weakened and can not be effective. This may be why they have to rely on the fixed access in caves near the smell of reasons.

“We are surprised to find that ants can not only based on visual landmarks, but also the sense of smell to gather information for their own navigation.” Knaden said he hoped that in future studies able to combine visual and olfactory information to do further study.

From butterflies to the rainbow stripes colorful colorful lizards in general; from between the film can take advantage of the limbs of the squirrel to glide from one tree “fly” to another tree snake, various species of nature in order to adapt to the environment evolved out of its strange properties staggering.

Natural selection has always been regarded by scientists believe is a major factor in driving the direction of evolution, but also created one of the main biological diversity, but we are able to create this natural selection is rich and varied as nature’s only reason?

New York, Stony Brook University, Institute of Ecology and Evolutionary scientists have left singular Massimo Pigg, said: “We believe that the current biology’s greatest unsolved mystery is one of the positioning of natural selection, natural selection is not in the end to promote the creation of species diversity in evolutionary direction and the only reason? and perhaps unknown factors that we have been at work, I hope that this assumption will eventually become a reality, to enrich our lives in a world of deep understanding. ”

Flexible and diverse gene

Some scientists have set out a number of other factors that may drive biological evolution. Pigg left-ki, said: “In the past two decades, scientists have begun to speculate complex biological systems (such as a living organism itself) have driven some of the attributes of the evolution of the role they and the role of natural selection together, making the original biological evolution out of the eyes, bacterial flagella, wings or shells, the characteristics of a class of strange to meet the environmental needs. ”

Here we introduce one called “significant phenotypic plasticity” concept, this phenomenon refers to the biological process of adaptation to the environment, you can change through evolutionary and flexible characteristics of a part of the body, development of new organs and tissues. But this difference is not at the gene level, for example, the bees and worker bees Bee populations where the gene is completely identical, but in the process of development of complete expression of different genes, so that has happened two kinds of Bees in behavior and signs on the considerable differences in the external environment factors, such as temperature or in the embryonic stage of its food, all contributed to the worker bees and soldier bees express different genes.

This “remarkable phenotypic plasticity,” the meaning lies in the evolutionary process can be beneficial to the shape of the genetic to the next generation, when the phenotype of genetic characteristics of continuous accumulation of time, outside of the natural environment will help eliminate a species need to adapt to the environment traits, while maintaining the descendants of those who have a competitive advantage.

The natural order of the formation of

Some researchers believe that living and non-biological systems tend to have a spontaneous order of self-formation characteristics, such self-organization of capacity is also one of the engines to promote the evolution of species, and this ability it can also be passed on to biological the next generation.

For non-biological systems for a typical example is the storm, this huge storm is absolutely not a random combination of airflow, scientific research found that the storm is a weather system with a high degree of order, all kinds of air flow in the storm in the formation of spontaneously sequence structure, together to reach an enormous destructive effect. Scientists have discovered more and more evidence that biological organisms also have similar features, their various traits are combination of spontaneous and orderly manner.

Biological orderliness of the typical example is the protein structure, we know that protein is a long string of amino acids formed in space, to reverse the winding, and its spatial structure determines the characteristics of the protein. The ever-changing characteristics of the protein because of its spatial structure can have many kinds, if the protein is only by the 100 amino acids, it forms the shape is enough to reach an astronomical figure. Shape of a protein is installed for a few seconds or minutes of time in an orderly manner, but such a conversion sequence, even if we use today are the world’s most powerful supercomputers can not be calculated because this transformation is the order of too complicated.

Nature is full of novel

Environmental factors can also change the external characteristics of animals and living habits, a phenomenon that has attracted many scientists to carry out in-depth research. For example, the U.S. cell biologist at the University of Wisconsin, Madison 西恩卡罗尔 found in East Africa some of the butterflies, when in accordance with its breakthrough in the environment in which to create a different color, during the rainy season with the emergence of the butterflies are generally bright eyes, the shape of the pattern, while the emergence of the butterflies during the dry season showed the protection mentioned in a deep color.

So far, biologists from the fertilized egg to mature on biological individuals are fully aware of the development process, but in the course of their development on how environmental and genetic factors play a role is always unclear. Scientists study called redbreast of seabirds found in some of the migratory routes of birds will be different according to changes in certain biological traits.

Popular Calidris sandpipers have been locked in a cage stocking relatively cold areas of climate, when the bird’s flight muscles and some organs will shrink to reduce heat loss, the characteristics of such a change can be passed on to the next generation of Red Calidris sandpipers.

With the biology, ecology, genetics and computer science integrated development to promote the biological evolution of the various factors and their evolution in the role will become increasingly clear that, while natural selection, Darwin proposed the theory of evolution will be driven by enriched in the developing correctly.

When we understand the various driving forces of biological evolution, the next question before us then – and that is incidental factors in the process of biological evolution in the end played a role in how much? We happen to grow into what it was now the do?

Pairs of high school students of traditional Chinese Gongbi counseling, so that high school students in art class creating a separate Chinese Painting, which is to be focus of the study.

As a high school art teachers have the responsibility and obligation to their students the traditional art education, first of all can not allow students to be Chinese traditional art of illiteracy, particularly in the face of “examination-oriented” education under the high-school students, art class through a number of activities to alleviate pressure on while allowing students to understand the profound Chinese traditional art, and through meticulous painting creation, to enable students to experience a drawing kinds of learning, access to the experience of Chinese Painting, resulting in a sense and confidence.

Integration of high school teaching materials, use of the limited art class, art class so that both normative and practical nature. So that students in a school art class not only mastered the textbook knowledge, but knowledge of the use of textbooks created a tradition of meticulous flower. Teachers in the creative process guiding the students in the main method is to demonstrate methods, and individualized, especially for impatient students to adopt a “meticulous in the freehand nature” approach to counseling students to improve a large area of traditional art capabilities.

1, high school students to learn the traditional art of practical significance

Times have been fast to train into the 21st century. The builders of the 21st century should be one with a sound knowledge of the structure and personality structure of the new talents. To accomplish this important mission, we need the current high school students in early-round development. Since China’s current “exam-oriented” education model of the impact of a considerable number of high school students, their culture is very good lesson to learn, but it is very poor understanding of the arts, especially for even less understanding of Chinese traditional art. Facts have proved that not only would this affect their normal play to their talents, but also impede their healthy development of the personality.

Also in contemporary society, science and technology and the rapid development of productive forces has greatly enriched the material wealth of society, constantly enriched with material wealth, people also need to continuously enrich the spiritual life of high school students to learn traditional Chinese arts, for personal development to the of vital importance.

Senior High School “Art Course Standards” nature of the curriculum that: China’s art has a long history and brilliant achievements, with other countries and peoples of the world of art together form the diversity of art. As art educators have the responsibility and obligation to students in traditional art education, in a sense, marks the traditional arts of classical Chinese civilization, culture and arts in the area of the highest level is indeed the pride of the Chinese nation, we can not allow students to forget that China nation’s glorious art of painting, traditional arts to art educators through our passed along. To let students know up to the prehistoric down to a typical well-known contemporary paintings and artists; understand the characteristics and method of traditional art techniques. Only by understanding the students of this nation’s brilliant culture and history, with national pride, growth path in life to generate self-confidence. Would be more strenuously study.

Peking Opera art and cultural courses are developed by our school a school-based curriculum. Peking Opera rich in cultural and historical connotations. This course: one relying on existing artistic disciplines to ensure that class, sub-paragraphs years has systematically nurture students Peking Opera; two active and orderly conduct classes in two school club activities, the expansion of all students in Peking Opera impact. Courses and activities and to rely on the formation of three-dimensional curriculum system.

China is facing the impact of western culture, contemporary children’s lack of China’s traditional culture influenced by the reality of facing the loss of traditional culture, our history and culture as a successor to assume the responsibility to protect, popularize, promote task. *** General Secretary clearly pointed out: “Opera is our national art treasures, which promote the arts and culture, inspiring the national spirit, to the masses, especially young people an important content of education in patriotism.” Creation of Peking Opera art and cultural courses The purpose is to make our students aware of Peking Opera is China’s cultural legacy, and in the world opera stage, a place, through the activities of teaching and a variety of Beijing Opera, Peking Opera’s fun-loving students to develop feelings and appreciation of opera, performance ability and creativity to improve opera culture literacy, in the lively art form by the patriotic education.

The opening of Peking Opera art and cultural courses, take some basic school. Cheng Yin Street Primary School from the nineties of the last century set up a children’s opera community, in close disciple of Mei Lanfang, Shen Xiaomei, under the supervision of a teacher, have never stopped the activities of almost every class has a small community opera actor. In addition, schools are held each semester Peking Opera Art Festival, attracting parents to participate. Peking Opera culture has penetrated into the campus community and family, opening Peking Opera art and cultural courses can be described as a matter of course, subject to parental support, community recognition, the response of teachers and students welcome.

[Practice Case]: Cheng Yin Street Primary School from the spring of 2006 started in school grades 1-6 to open Beijing Opera art and cultural courses, and as nearly a thousand school students in a required course. Peking Opera Peking Opera art and cultural courses by the provincial-level actors Shao-Liang Zhang, Sha Yu, and many other experts in curriculum development and instruction, the arts team of teachers from the school as the main curriculum implementation personnel, school teachers, with the entire school year, 16 hours, the whole school to a sixth grade fully forward and into the art of lesson evaluation system.

To do the following:

A creation of Peking Opera course. With the course format to ensure education for all students by the Peking Opera and arrange hours to form a curriculum evaluation system, and one to sixth grade are used star system for evaluation.

2, to carry out activities in Peking Opera. Every Friday in the form of school clubs attract a keen interest in a number of pairs of Peking Opera Peking Opera performers to join the ranks of the children, and this radiation, the expansion of all students in Peking’s influence; in class, and teams will be in around the Peking Opera, to carry out various forms of the relevant activity.

3, in the course of penetration of elements of Peking Opera. Peking Opera to cover not only music, art and other artistic disciplines, but also, radiation to the literary, social and even sports and other disciplines, therefore, relevant courses in the infiltration of elements of Peking Opera art so that students all-round understanding of Peking Opera, Beijing Opera experience and enjoy the Peking Opera, is the courses were an important part of the study.

4, organized by Peking Opera Art Festival. Come provincial professional bodies, the creation of Peking opera popular lectures, performing Chinese classical, traditional aria, so that the small community, “amateur” and professional actors to stage to stimulate interest in the small audience, so that professionals, amateur integration, the next stage, an interactive . Our school will be in the original festival traditions, based on the establishment of the annual opera festival, so that “classes in singing opera, everyone will be Peking Opera,” in the arts during the festival in order to Squadron for the organization, extensive mobilization, there are plans to to host “Peking Opera blackboard newspaper” contest; opera tabloid appraisal; Opera history, story telling; opera aria display and other activities.

5, regular participation in community activities. Let opera into the community, not only enriched the cultural life of the community, but also at the same time strive for more community recognition and support. Let the kids into the streets of communities, homes for the elderly and nursing homes, at the same time show their temper, but also learn to care about in performance, experience joy of giving.

6, to create opportunities for students to provide a stage show. Allow more attention to the social dimension of opera, so that students get a sense of achievement in the show, but also to students of the Peking Opera has created and professional community to exchange skills and improve the level of opportunities. We will take the school network platforms, and WAN platforms combine propaganda and media performances combining forms, such as students in order to maximize the display of students in order to let the Chinese traditional culture in a modern metropolis, recognized and echoed.
