Finish Exercise 4 on Page 15 of the textbook.A smart home is one that integrated computers into the structure of the building itself. In this way, many of the things that we now do ourselves become automatic. For example, the smart home could control the air conditioning and lights so that you would no longer have to turn switches on and off, and so that your home would be more energy-efficient. The smart home could also monitor itself to make sure that everything is working as it should, and send you warnings if there is a problem. Such smart homes could even be programmed to detect your health problems, and then give you reasonable advice as to the food you should eat or if you should see a doctor. So, in a sense, smart homes will lead us to living smarter lives.2.Create a smart function for your home, and share your creation in the next period.

◇探究提示:传统文化对现实生活是财富还是包袱,要具体问题具体分析,不可一概而论。例如,“忠”是我国古代伦理道德的最高原则,《左传》中的“临患不忘国,忠也”,要人们尽自己最大努力,为维护国家利益而献身,是积极的,对现实生活来说就是财富,应该提倡;而宋代的“君要臣死,臣不得不死”的封建忠君思想对现实生活来说是包袱,应该抛弃。2.继承传统文化的正确态度如何继承传统文化,发挥传统文化的积极作用呢?正确的态度是:“取其精华,去其糟粕”,批判继承,古为今用。面对传统文化,要辩证地认识它们在现实生活屯的作用,分辨其中的精华和糟粕。对于传统文化中符合社会发展要求的、积极向上的内容,应该继续保持和发扬。对于传统文化中不符合社会发展要求的、落后的、腐朽的东西,必须“移风易俗”,自觉地加以改造或剔除。
五、课后反思课后组织学生讨论对本课的感受,同学们都非常乐意采取这种上课方式,既可以通过资料的搜集、整理提高自身信息采集的能力,也能够提高自己学习积极性,变枯燥为生动。本人在教学中也深深地感到:一方面,充分发挥学生的主体作用,有利于启发同学的思维,培养自主思考的能力。而充分利用网络的教学功能,将现代信息技术和学科教学很好地结合了起来。只有调动全体同学的积极性、主动性、创造性,我们的教学才能有生命力;另一方面,光有学生的活动也不行,虽然学生能够积极投入地利用互联网搜集并动手制作课件,在课堂交流中能很好地进行发散思维和创造性思维,但其集中思维和抽象性思维还存在一定的缺陷,主要体现在对搜集的材料的取舍是以及对知识点的归纳和深化方面,所以在充分发挥学生的主体作用的同时应该也必须重视教师主导作用的发挥,引导学生由形象到抽象、由发散到集中、由演绎到归纳的思维能力的逐步提高。
3、文化是人们的一种素养(1)人的文化素养是在社会生活、实践中形成的。每个人所具有的文化素养,不是天生的,而是通过对社会生活的体验,特别是通过参与文化生活、接受知识文化教育而逐步培养出来的。文化素养的形成,离不开生活、实践和教育。人们在社会实践中创造和发展文化,也在社会生活中获得和享用文化。(2)人的文化素养表现在日常言行中。教师活动:引导学生阅读教材7页“公交车漫画”材料,并思考所反映的问题学生活动:积极思考并讨论问题教师点评:人们的精神活动离不开物质活动,人们的文化素养总是要通过他在日常生活中的言行、在社会实践活动中的表现等表现出来。我们通过观察人们的社会行为,就可以从中透视人们的精神世界和精神生活。4、文化的传承和发展离不开物质载体。社会文化和精神产品离不开物质载体,一个时代的文化和精神产品,往往是这一时代社会发展轨迹的反映。
商业活动、人口迁徙、教育活动是文化传播的主要途径。随着科学技术的不断进步,文化传播的手段也越来越多样,越来越先进。现代文化传播已经不仅限于这些,传播的媒介越来越多。经历了口语、文字、印刷、电子和网络等发展阶段。二、大众传媒:现代文化传播的手段1、 传媒:传播的媒介2、 发展:口语――文字――印刷――电子――网络3、 现代传媒包括:报刊、广播、电视、网络、杂志、书籍、手机、电子读物等各种现代传媒的作用各具特色,各有优点。(学生讨论并畅谈各自的优缺点)归纳:新的传媒的出现,并不意味着旧传媒的消失,各种传媒都在文化传播中发挥着重要的作用。传媒的真正开始面向大众传递信息,是以印刷媒体的推广为标志的。如今,依托电子技术、微电子技术、光纤通信技术、网络技术、多媒体技术等现代信息技术,大众传媒能够最大程度地穿越时空局限,汇集来自世界各地的信息,日益显示出文化传递、沟通、共享的强大功能,已经成为文化传播的主要手段。
代中国人民的四大发明,古希腊人的哲学与艺术成就,占代印度人民在宗教和数学方面的成就等,都以其鲜明的民族特色}:富J,世界文化,共同推动了人类社会的进步和发展。总之,尊重和保存不同的民族文化,是人类生存和发展的基础。◇课堂探究:(1)对那些面临失传的占老民族文化,有人反对进行抢救和保护,认为应当顺其自然地让它们被历史淘汰。你同意这种看法吗?(2)你认为,我们还有哪些独特的文化形式可以申报人类口述和非物质遗产?◇探究提示:(1)文化遗产是一个民族的“身份证”,从文化意义上标识出一个民族的个性和一个民族的历史记忆。文化遗产是人类社会发展的见证,是人类文明的重要载体。文化遗产体现着一个民族独特的思维方式和文化价值,是民族的根基,是历史的纪念碑。文化遗产既属于一个国家、一个民族,也是全人类的共同财富。文化遗产具有不可再生性的特点,所以对那些面临失传的古老民族文化,我们不能坐视不管,要进行及时有效地抢救和保护。
