Abstract:With the increase of social need to the intellectual quality, it has become a basic requirement of school teaching: to explore the new teaching pattern, pay attention to the student ability training, and improve the talent training quality. Scaffolding teaching means that teachers provide a conceptual framework which is based on students’ existing knowledge to help students understanding new knowledge, just like a process of building a ladder, ensuring that students’ existing knowledge becomes the key for them to construct a new knowledge system. Scaffolding teaching emphasizes students’ learning initiative and pays attention to students’ ability cultivation. In the simulated environment created by teachers, students complete knowledge construction by means of active exploration and cooperative learning to improve their comprehensive ability. In this paper, the authors explored the teaching practice of scaffolding in exploratory learning through the process of scaffolding construction, situation creation, independent exploration, cooperative learning and effect evaluation.
