MM education mode is: in the whole process of mathematics teaching, teachers give full play to the two functions of mathematics education (technical education function and cultural education function); Consciously follow two basic principles (the principle of paying equal attention to proof and conjecture and the principle of synchronous coordination of teaching, learning and research (discovery)); Aim at three specific goals (to guide students to improve their general scientific literacy, improve their social and cultural literacy, and form and develop their mathematical literacy); Appropriate use of eight teaching measures (mathematics returning to nature education, mathematics aesthetic education, mathematics discovery method education, mathematician character education, mathematics history education, deductive reasoning teaching, rational reasoning teaching and general problem-solving method teaching) can achieve the goal of improving students' quality in an all-round way.

MM education mode is the education mode of mathematical methodology, and the code name MM takes the first two prefixes of the English phrase "Educational mode of mathematical methodology".

It is not a specific teaching mode, but a mathematics teaching idea, a basic principle guiding teaching design, which can be embodied by various specific teaching methods and means. At the same time, it is an open system, which can constantly absorb new teaching experience, teaching methods and teaching ideas, constantly improve and develop, use different teaching modes and have specific operation steps.

MM education mode is based on the theoretical and applied achievements of Xu Liquan, a comrade of Wuxi Institute of Education, in the research of mathematical methodology at home and abroad. On the basis of learning and studying other people's excellent teaching methods and learning methods; Combined with my own teaching, scientific research and scientific research experience, I made an independent and calm reflection on the present situation and history of mathematics education in China.

With the care, support and direct deployment of the main responsible comrades of Wuxi education administrative department, the first mathematical education experiment (MM experiment for short) was held in Wuxi senior high school in September, 1994. 1May, 1994, the MM experiment was officially appraised and highly praised by the expert appraisal committee headed by Wang Zikun, an academician of Chinese Academy of Sciences, entrusted by Jiangsu Provincial Education Commission. The appraisal team believes that this educational method is feasible and effective in primary school, middle school, vocational education and adult education, and it is worth popularizing.
