Mathematical ability refers to a stable personality characteristic, such as logical thinking ability, that an individual can quickly and successfully complete mathematical activities (mathematical learning activities and mathematical research activities). Therefore, mathematics education must cultivate students' mathematical ability, and the improvement of mathematical ability is one of the important goals of mathematics education.

Second, can mathematics education help students master mathematical thinking methods?

We often say that if we master mathematical thoughts, we will master the essence of mathematics.

Mathematical thinking is the essential understanding after summarizing mathematical facts and theories, and it refers to the result that the spatial form and quantitative relationship of the real world are reflected in human consciousness and produced through thinking activities. Therefore, only by cultivating mathematical thoughts in mathematics education can we greatly improve our mathematical ability. Modern education believes that the teaching of mathematical thinking methods should become an important part of mathematics curriculum in primary and secondary schools.

Third, can mathematics education help students cultivate a sense of discipline?

In mathematics education or other subject education, we often emphasize two consciousnesses: subject consciousness and problem consciousness. The so-called problem consciousness is to learn to find and ask questions. Then discipline consciousness is to learn to use mathematical knowledge to analyze and solve this problem in analyzing and solving problems.

Therefore, mathematics education should help students to establish a correct view of discipline and a correct view of mathematical symbols.

Fourth, can mathematics education enable students of different levels to learn mathematics?

We know that not everyone can become a mathematician, or that not all students have to engage in mathematics-related jobs in the future. This is why there are various majors in universities, but each major has different requirements for mathematics.

Therefore, in mathematics education, I want all students to master the most basic mathematics knowledge and ability, so that students who are interested in or gifted in mathematics can develop better in the field of mathematics.

Fifth, whether mathematics education can adapt to and promote social development.

The changes in classroom education from the initial chalk to projection, PPT and whiteboard teaching all reflect the rapid development of science and technology, such as the popularity of the Internet.

Therefore, with the changes of the times, the expectations and requirements for mathematics education are also improving. For example, through computer simulation, we can reveal unknown mathematical phenomena and prove some unproven mathematical theorems. At the same time, many mathematics educators use modern equipment to further improve and implement the classroom teaching effect.
