論香港新高中課程中國語文科的特點及對教師專業素養的要求

香港教育局課程發展處在2010年發表了《新高中課程‧中國語文》，新課程博大精深，加入了校本評估。課程特別重視培育學生的語文素質，教師要設計多元化的教材和創設寬廣的學習空間，提升學生的自主學習和獨立思考的能力。新課程對教師的要求提高了，因此，切實提高語文教師的專業素養是成功實施新高中課改的重要保障。中國語文教師須具備本科學養、教育理論、語文教學的專業和個人涵養，才能達到課改的目的。本文在最後的部分提出一些教師培訓方面的建議。
The Hong Kong Education Bureau has introduced the New Secondary School Chinese Language Curriculum in 2010. Compared to the previous curriculum, the new curriculum engages a broader content and comes with a set of school-based assessment rubric. It places heavy emphasis on improving the quality of the students' language abilities. Teachers are required to develop different kinds of teaching materials and design a more flexible learning environment in order to enhance the students' self-directed learning abilities and develop their independent thinking skills. As the new curriculum has a higher demand on teacher knowledge, it is necessary to enhance their professional knowledgeability through training to ensure a successful implementation of this new curriculum. Teachers should be well-versed in Chinese studies, educational theories and specializes in language pedagogy. They must also have a refined character to serve as the students' role model. This paper attempts to provide a detailed analysis on the new curriculum and hence suggests possible professional training for the teachers. Copyright © 2014 新加坡華文教研中心.
