Comparative Study On The Content Of "Statistics And Probability" In Chinese And American Primary Mathematics

As the steady implementation of basic education of mathematics curriculum reform, domestic scholars do a comprehensive and in-depth research and discussion to the existence of many problems in mathematics curriculum reform. Currently, the mathematics curriculum reform of basic education are at the stage of summing up and reflection.Meanwhile, some front-line teachers and scholars also pointed out that a number of problems of the new mathematics textbooks. Therefore, studying the new mathematics textbook in depth is an important part to ensure that basic education of mathematics curriculum reform has become a steady in-depth implementation.In this study, based on the development of mathematics education in U.S. primary history and current situation, Mainly in China and the U.S. representative selection of primary school mathematics textbooks, "PEP" and "California Edition " in "Statistics and Probability "do a comparative study of course content. Analysis United States elementary school mathematics textbooks for the preparation of a systematic and comprehensive.Take this comparison, literature and content analysis. First of all, starting from the macro level, do a comparative study of the two countries of the "mathematics curriculum standards. Discuss Similarities and differences with areas in "Statistics and Probability" of two countries. Secondly, take the depth to the micro level, In terms of the content and structure, writing style and structure of three dimensions , do comparative analysis of Sino-US textbooks of written in a style. Finally, select primary school mathematics "average" as a typical case carefully. Do comprehensive and detailed comparison of the content and structure, organizational structure, preparation style, layout location, presentation, and other aspects of the text features. Two versions of textbooks on the similarities and differences are discussed in detail.By two elementary school mathematics textbooks on comparative analysis of the characteristics, I found that the difficulty of PEP course materials and exercises, examples to the whole is greater than the number of the California Edition, whereas breadth of the curriculum and courses to the overall capacity of less than the California edition, And there are two quite different books in the course of time, the preparation of style, structure, layout location, presentation and text features, etc. According to the results of the comparative study, I present recommendations of the improvement of Sino-US "Mathematics curriculum standards" and the textbook "Statistics and Probability" content for the preparation and improvement of textbooks. To promote basic education in mathematics curriculum reform in China is more stable move.
