摘要

初中中國歷史教學上存在的主要困難之一，就是學生常感被動及沉悶，以致影響學習成果。

另方面，由於一般教師所受的歷史訓練，以甲部課程（政治史）為主，故在處理乙部課程（文化史）的教學上，感到特別困難，只好輕輕帶過，甚或避而不談，以致與我們生活有密切關係 的文化史，在中史教學上一直處於附庸地位。

有見及此，本文作者希望以平日課堂累積的經驗，針對以上兩個問題，舉例說明運用啟發式方法進行初中中史乙部課程教學的可行性及優點所在。

Abstract

One of the major difficulties in teaching junior secondary Chinese History is that students often feel passive and dull which adversely affects their learning.

Moreover, the training received by most Chinese History teachers is mainly in Syllabus Part A (Political History), who then find it difficult to teach Syllabus Part B (Cultural History) and will usually briefly cover the latter Syllabus or even not touch upon it at all. It is why Cultural History has so far been of subordinate importance in Chinese History teaching even though it is very much related to our daily lives.

In view of the above, the authors will focus the following discussion on the two problems and cite examples from their everyday teaching experience to show the feasibility and advantages of applying discovery method in teaching Chinese History Syllabus Part B in junior secondary forms.
