Benefits:

1. Mathematics competition can broaden students' horizons and see different kinds of problems; Personally, I think that a child's vision of the subject can determine his future height. If his eyes only focus on the difficulty of the senior high school entrance examination, then it will be difficult for him. If his vision is at the height of the competition, then the senior high school entrance examination will be easy for him.

2. Mathematics competition can train children's thinking and master the ability to analyze and solve problems from different angles; Can better exercise children's perseverance. For children, as long as they can keep thinking, then he has been very successful, and he has gained a lot, which is very beneficial to their long-term development (high school, university). Moreover, the math competition is only held once a year, so it is difficult to have such a good opportunity for children to face challenges and hone themselves. Personal point of view: participating in the math contest is not to win prizes, but to exercise, because the math contest can really bring a lot.

Disadvantages:

There are advantages and disadvantages, and competition mathematics also has disadvantages. The direct purpose of learning competitive mathematics is to participate in mathematical competitions, and the excessive development and abnormal competition of mathematical competitions have also brought negative effects.

Too utilitarian. If learning competition mathematics is only to get a good ranking in the competition, competitiveness is stronger than curiosity, and ignoring the truth contained in competition mathematics is not conducive to students' further pursuit of truth. Ai En Stein said: Education is not to induce students' competitive psychology with competitiveness, but to stimulate students' scientific interest with curiosity. Competition mathematics emphasizes skills. Through specific training, students may have high problem-solving ability, but they may lose the potential for further development. Although the creation of mathematics requires skills, it is more about finding problems, putting forward concepts, inducing analogies, guessing and proving, and constructing theories. Being able to do competition questions is just repeating the questions that others have thought about. This is "learning to answer", not "learning", and a strong sense of creation cannot be cultivated. Emphasizing competition mathematics training affects students' physical and mental health. After all, competition mathematics is not the category of basic mathematics, so it is beyond the scope of learning for middle school students to learn competition mathematics. If you study hard, it will put too much pressure on students and affect the formation of their sound personality.

Remind the landlord to objectively and correctly understand the advantages and disadvantages of competition mathematics, appropriately guide students to broaden their mathematical horizons and accumulate mathematical knowledge, so as to lay a foundation for further study.
