A summary of the research on improving junior middle school students' interest in mathematics
Research and implementation scheme of creating situation to improve junior middle school students' interest in mathematics learning 1. Put forward the theme 1. The importance of improving students' interest in mathematics learning can make a person consciously and voluntarily contact, know and master knowledge and skills, participate in activities, especially promote students' learning. Interest is the best teacher. All kinds of theoretical research and teaching practice prove that when students are interested in mathematics learning, they will be active in thinking, concentrate, take the initiative to enter a good learning state and actively participate in mathematics activities. Mathematics Curriculum Standard clearly points out in the curriculum implementation plan that mathematics teaching is the teaching of mathematics activities and the process of interactive development between teachers and students. Mathematics teaching should be closely linked with students' real life. Starting from students' life experience and existing knowledge, we should create vivid and interesting situations to guide students to carry out activities such as observation, calculation, guessing, reasoning and communication, so that students can master basic mathematical knowledge and skills through mathematical activities, initially learn to observe things and think about problems from the perspective of mathematics, and stimulate students' interest in mathematics and their desire to learn mathematics well. Situational creation is conducive to stimulating students' interest and making them happy to learn; It can stimulate students' emotions and make them learn actively; Strengthen the connection between mathematics knowledge and real life, so that students have the desire to learn. Then, creating a charming and interesting teaching situation has become one of the important ways to stimulate students' interest in mathematics learning. 2. Analysis of junior high school students' interest in mathematics learning in our school. When the school started in the autumn of 2007, our school welcomed nearly 150 freshmen. After teaching for two weeks, I found it difficult to attend the first grade math class! First-year students can't attend classes, read books or do homework. As soon as the class was over, they began to talk, play with things unrelated to study and walk back and forth. Teachers pressed the gourd and lifted it, which greatly affected the teaching effect of mathematics classroom. However, the performance of students who just entered the second grade in mathematics class is not satisfactory, and their attention can not be concentrated for a long time, and some students are not interested in learning. Reason: (1) Our school is located at the western end of Xixia District, and the students are mainly children of migrant workers. Two-thirds of students' parents work for a living, have no time to take care of their children, and have no awareness and ability to cooperate with school education and counseling their children. The communication between parents and school teachers can not be realized, the cooperative education between home and school is not in place, and the study habits and learning effects formed by students in school can not be consolidated in time, so the classroom teaching of teachers is particularly important. (2) Preschool education and primary education are two different educational models: the main activity of preschool and kindergarten grade one students is games, and the learning requirements are relatively relaxed. After entering the school, the leading activity becomes learning, and the main channel of learning is classroom teaching, which has strict learning requirements. It is inevitable that junior students can't adapt to mathematics learning. (3) Junior students mainly think in images, especially the first-year children, who are young and easily distracted. They often know things by interest, and those who are interested will concentrate, while those who are not interested will be absent-minded. Mathematics is a very logical and abstract subject, and it is a headache for junior high school mathematics teachers that mathematics classes are boring and inattentive. If children can feel the joy of learning from an early age and cultivate their strong thirst for knowledge, good thinking quality and study habits, they will benefit for life. Junior math teachers should entertain and teach properly, and use interesting teaching methods to stimulate students' interest in learning, so as to maintain students' strong thirst for knowledge and lasting attention. The creation of mathematical situation can just abstract the teaching content into images, promote the cooperation of students' various senses, and stimulate students' initiative and enthusiasm in learning. Therefore, the junior high school mathematics teachers in our school set up a research group, and according to the actual situation of the school, determined the research topic of creating situations to improve junior high school students' interest in mathematics learning. It is hoped that through the research of this topic, with the help of situational creation, the interest of junior students in learning mathematics will be improved, thus greatly improving the efficiency of mathematics classroom teaching and playing a multiplier role. Second, the definition and theoretical basis of related concepts 1, the definition of concepts (1) context: the explanation in the dictionary is context, context. Situation refers to the situation in a specific situation. In this lesson, emotion refers to emotion, situation refers to the comprehensive superposition of external teaching environment and internal psychological activities of teachers and students, and situation is a learning environment that acts on students and produces certain emotional and interest reactions. (2) Situational teaching: refers to the teaching process that acts on students in the classroom teaching environment and causes the emotional response of active learning. Situational teaching is the breakthrough of teaching. Students unconsciously realize the organic infiltration and integration of cognitive activities and emotional activities, so that students' emotions and interests are always in the best state and devote themselves to learning, thus ensuring the effectiveness and predictability of teaching activities. (3) Interest: The emotion explained as preference in the dictionary refers to the positive, relaxed and cheerful emotional state and the behavior of consciously participating in learning activities in a certain learning environment. 2. Theoretical Basis (1) Constructivism Theory Constructivism holds that learning is always associated with a certain social and cultural background, that is, the situation. Learning in actual situations or situations close to reality created through multimedia can effectively stimulate association, awaken relevant knowledge, experience or representation in long-term memory, and enable learners to assimilate and index the new knowledge they have learned at present by using relevant knowledge and experience in the original cognitive structure. If the original knowledge and experience can't assimilate the new knowledge, it will lead to an adaptation process, that is, to transform and reorganize the original cognitive structure in order to master the new knowledge. Therefore, the creation of real situations can stimulate learners' interest and motivation, give play to students' subjective initiative, and promote students' independent exploration, discovery and active construction of knowledge meaning. (2) Educational Psychology Theoretical psychology believes that all human activities are caused by motivation. Students' learning mathematics is a conscious behavior, which requires students to generate intrinsic motivation, so as to achieve the goal of students actively participating in teaching activities and acquiring knowledge. Therefore, teachers must stimulate students' interest in learning, thus stimulating students' learning motivation. (3) Relationship between People and Environment Students' learning attitudes, learning methods and emotional tendencies have a great relationship with their cultural background and family environment, because people live in a certain environment and are inseparable from them. Therefore, a democratic, harmonious and appropriate classroom atmosphere is more conducive to students' active, lively and personalized development. (4) The first issue of Mathematics Curriculum Standards proposes that mathematics teaching should be closely linked with students' real life, and based on students' life experience and existing knowledge, valuable mathematics situations should be created to stimulate students' interest in learning, so that students can learn mathematics in vivid and concrete situations. Third, the expected goal of the study. Through this study, we hope to achieve the following goals: 1. Improve teachers' classroom teaching behavior and improve teachers' ability to use situational teaching. 2. Further stimulate students' interest in learning mathematics, cultivate the habit of listening carefully and actively participate in mathematics activities, so as to effectively improve the quality of mathematics classroom teaching in low classes.
