《普通高中物理课程标准》在课程目标中明确提出要让学生“经历科学探究过程，认识科学探究的意义，尝试应用科学探究的方法研究物理问题，验证物理规律。”但是，时至今日，探究式教学面临着需要进一步发展的问题。笔者以为，探究式教学的最终目的乃是提高学生的科学素养。然而，从科学素养的构成看，并不是一成不变的。特别是随着计算机技术的发展、科学方法的进步，科学探究的形态也由原先的实验探究和理论探究演变出了新的形态特征。这种新的形态又进一步丰富了科学素养的内涵。我们把这种科学探究的新的形态称作“数据探究”，把由数据探究带来的科学素养的新内涵称作“数据素养”。本课题的研究即希望阐述数据探究产生的背景和条件及在中学开展旨在提高学生“数据素养”为目的的数据探究课程的必要性及其实现途径。笔者秉承理论与实践结合的原则，边进行理论研究，边进行教学实践，并取得了一定的科研成果。本课题主要做了以下几方面的工作：第一章阐述了数据探究产生的背景，包括探究式教学的发展、“数据”在科学研究中的重要意义和科学方法教育的发展等，期望能够让读者了解数据探究产生的背景和原因。第二章对相关概念进行了界定。明确了数据探究的核心特征——仿真计算性和数字传播性，及其理科教学的优势——培养高级的科学思维能力和协作品质。需要指出，数据探究是建立在信息技术和理科探究教学基础上的，笔者的目的是期望完善信息技术在理科探究教学中更深层次的方法论意义。第三章是对三种科学探究课堂教学形态的特征方面的案例探讨。为了让读者能够对实验探究、理论探究和数据探究有更清晰的认识，笔者撰写了一个课例，从实验探究、理论探究和数据探究三个维度进行了探讨，并据此对比分析了三种探究形态在科学方法上的特征。第四章对一线教师做了一项问卷调查，一方面想了解一线教师对“数据探究”的认识和理解情况；另一方面也想了解在中学开设“数据探究”为基础的选修课程尚存在的主要障碍，为数据探究指导课程与教学实践做准备。第五章针对数据探究的核心特征和独特教学价值进行的教学尝试。笔者开发了两种实现数据探究教学的途径，一种是出了S-WebQuest的教学设想，并以《追踪嫦娥一号的踪迹》为题制作与试验了一个探究网站。另一种，通过频闪截屏技术探究了《探究单摆的运动规律》。两个案例一个是网络模式，一个是课堂教学模式，通过教学实践发现，均取得了较好的教学效益。第六章是对本研究的一个总结和反思。

“Ordinary High school Physics Curriculum Standard”point out that students should “experience the process of scientific inquiry, know the meaning of science exploration, try to apply the method of scientific inquiry in physics problems, and validate of the laws of physics.”However, Inquiry teaching is faced with the need for further development of the problem. The ultimate goal of inquiry teaching is to improve the scientific literacy of students. However,it is not immutable and frozen from the composition of scientific literacy. Especially with the development of computer technology and scientific advances, scientific inquiry form evolved a new morphological characteristics from the original experimental research and exploration of the theory. This new pattern has further enriched the connotation of scientific literacy. We called this new form of scientific inquiry " data inquiry”, which brought scientific literacy called" data quality". The research wants to explain the data inquiry into the background and conditions , the necessity and its way of realization of Data Inquiry Curriculum that aims to improve students" data quality" in secondary schools .I uphold the principle of combining theory with practice, doing theoretical research and teaching practice at the same time, and has made certain achievements in scientific research. This paper mainly focuses on the following aspects of the work:The first chapter describes the background of the data inquiry, including the development of inquiry teaching,the significance of " data" in scientific research ,the scientific method education development and so on.,expecting to be able to let the reader understand the background and reason of the data inquiry.The second chapter defines the related concepts . Clear the core feature of data inquiry--- calculation of simulation and digital communication.,the advantage of Science Teaching---cultivating of senior scientific thinking ability and cooperative quality. Needs to be pointed out, data inquiry is based on information technology and science inquiry teaching.The purpose of this article is to improve the deeper significance of methodology of information technology in science inquiry teaching. The third chapter studies a case of three morphological characters of scientific inquiry. In order to let the reader have a clearer understanding of experimental research, theoretical research and data research , I set an example, discussing the three dimensions from the experimental research, theoretical research and data research, comparative analysis of three kinds of inquiry form in the scientific method. The fourth chapter did a questionnaire survey of the teachers, On one hand, we want to know the understanding of the teachers to" data inquiry ".On the other hand, we want to know the main obstacle of opened " data inquiry " as the basis of elective courses at middle school, making preparations for data inquiry guidance curriculum and teaching practice.The fifth chapter studies the teaching trial in the light of the core features and the unique value of teaching experiment of data inquiry. I develops two kinds of data inquiry teaching case. On one side, I put forward S-WebQuest teaching plan, and fabricate and test of a research site of tracking Chang'e-1." On the other side, I explore “the inquiry pendulum movement” using the stroboscopic ScreenCapture technology. As for the two cases, one is a network model, the other is a classroom teaching mode, which both achieved good teaching effect.The sixth chapter is a summary and reflection.
