No matter in any era, excellent talents are needed. Without such talents, the progress of culture and science is impossible. This is the need of the times and the need of national construction. The current society is an era of rapid development of knowledge economy, and all walks of life are calling for the emergence of outstanding talents. Top students with mathematical talent can't appear spontaneously. No matter how smart and studious they are, they can't learn without a teacher. They need training, targeted guidance and strict training. And teachers can't ignore the task of finding and cultivating top students in mathematics on the basis of general improvement. As a people's teacher, it is an unshirkable responsibility to train outstanding students.
To cultivate top students in mathematics, we must first be good at finding and choosing good seedlings. Top students should have a solid foundation, active thinking, agile thinking, excellent learning potential and strong ability to analyze and solve problems, and have a strong interest in mathematics and innovative spirit. Mainly from the following aspects:
1. Pay attention to the all-round and balanced development of students' learning level in all subjects. As top students, young people should not only have solid strength in mathematics and physics, but also have a good foundation in liberal arts, so as to have strong understanding, expression and induction. This is an indispensable prerequisite for top students to become talents.
2. Pay attention to students' intelligence level. Some students are diligent, good at imitation, cautious and patient. They often do well in regular exams, but they are confined to books and lack potential in learning. Such students are not suitable as the seeds of top students. Some students have strong thinking ability, like studying, reading extra-curricular books, learning by themselves in advance, being ingenious, but careless. His math scores are unstable. This kind of students have great learning potential, and as long as they are properly guided, they are all good prospects.
3. Understand students' non-intelligence factors. Good young people who are among the best in mathematics often have a strong desire to learn, good self-confidence and perseverance, unique learning methods and scientific learning habits. These non-intellectual factors can just strengthen the depth of learning and improve the efficiency of learning.
It is very important to select the top students in mathematics accurately, but this is only the first step. More importantly, how to train top students in mathematics. Here, we should solve the relationship between popularization and improvement, and solve the contradiction between the top and the general. If we don't solve these problems, we will lose sight of one thing and lose sight of another. How to deal with these problems, so that top students in mathematics can be fully developed and their knowledge and skills can be reached to a higher level? According to the specific characteristics of these top students, effective corresponding measures should be taken:
1, strict requirements, solid foundation. A strict teacher makes a noble apprentice. To train top students in mathematics, we must first be strict and let students lay a good foundation. Only with a solid foundation can we study deeply, further cultivate our ability and develop our intelligence. Some top students are complacent about some achievements. They are too ambitious in their studies and are unwilling to lay a solid foundation. This is a fatal weakness. We should affirm our achievements and establish confidence in top students. But don't praise too much, but also point out the shortcomings, take advantage of the situation, and play it slowly and steadily. We must strengthen practice and consolidation in learning mathematics. In particular, we should use our brains and do more work.
2, select the content, pay attention to cultivate the ability of thinking and learning, improve the ability of self-study. According to the learning level of top students in mathematics, some high-quality learning contents are compiled, and some necessary extracurricular learning materials are provided to help them make certain learning plans. Give necessary guidance on learning methods, especially guide them to learn to compare, summarize and summarize in self-study, take notes, accumulate knowledge and solve problems. When looking at the topic, don't just stare at it, but summarize and synthesize it, so as to draw inferences from others. We should gradually let them grope for progress instead of doing things for them. When encountering difficulties, only point out the key points, make the finishing point, let students express their opinions more, cultivate original spirit and encourage innovative thinking.
3. Strengthen the infiltration of mathematical thinking methods. Mathematical thinking method is a dynamic tool for students to acquire mathematical knowledge and develop their thinking ability. In the process of training top students in mathematics to solve problems, we should grasp the good opportunity to infiltrate mathematical thinking methods, consciously and purposefully combine mathematical knowledge with mathematical problems, appropriately put forward the background of problems, provide mathematical thinking materials, and repeatedly use mathematical thinking methods to deepen the "problem solving", thus further improving the mathematical quality of top students in mathematics.
4. Actively carry out extracurricular interest group activities. Adhere to extracurricular activities and incorporate them into your teaching work plan. You can put some difficult and comprehensive math problems on the wall or copy them on the blackboard every day. Small-scale math competitions are often organized. Use holidays to hold competition-related counseling lectures to deepen and broaden students' knowledge. Encourage them to actively participate in different levels of mathematics competitions and their training.
5. Strengthen the professional quality of teachers. Teachers should also constantly update their knowledge, not only to master all the contents of middle school mathematics, but also to broaden the relevant knowledge on this basis, teach it to top students in mathematics in a timely, accurate and appropriate manner, and influence them as much as possible with their profound foundation. Therefore, in addition to preparing lessons and teaching after class, teachers should often learn books and papers written by other experienced teachers or experts to enrich themselves, which is of great help to the cultivation of top students in mathematics.
Every teacher hopes to cultivate outstanding talents who can make great contributions to the country and society. The cultivation of outstanding talents can not be separated from the ladder of teachers. Let us teachers who work in the front line of teaching take out the experience accumulated in the process of cultivating top students in mathematics.
