For several years experience of mathematics teaching, the author has found that classroom psychological environment is the most important factor of classroom efficiency. In Western countries, there are around40years researching history on classroom psychological environment. Compared with western countries, our research in this field is a little late. But the researches are mostly for general reference to other subjects, but not for particular subjects, especially for the mathematics classroom psychological environment. So the research in this field is rarely shortage. After several years of mathematics teaching, the author has found that teaching prejudice has tight relation with classroom psychological environment. Different teaching prejudice level of the teachers will impact the classroom environment, and then classroom environment will impact the studying positively and finally impact studying. However, until now, few Chinese scholars are engaged in research of mathematics teaching prejudice on classroom psychological environment.According to the situations above, the author has made the research in Liucheng High School, and taken samples from all of the mathematics teachers and580students. The methods we engaged in are Literature search, Questionnaire survey, interviewing and others, and then we analyzed the data throughout the SPSS statistical program methods, and other several methods to prove below:The existence of teaching prejudice; the influence of mathematics teaching prejudice on classroom psychological environment; the different teaching prejudice of the teachers on impacting the classroom environment. Here are the statements the author hold:1. Teaching prejudice is very common among the mathematics teachers.42.86%of them are fair to the students while52.38%of them are not, then this will impact classroom psychological environment on daily teaching, including the relationship of teachers and students, teaching, questioning, helping and assessing, communicating out of class.2. Where there is teaching prejudice, there will lead different impact on different classes’psychological environment. Mathematics teachers’ teaching attitudes will turn out to be the different impact on classroom studying.3. Teaching prejudice will make a great different impact on different grades’ classroom psychological environment. There is a great difference among the grade one, two and three. However, according to the research of our school, there is little teaching prejudice impact on the grade one students, while it has slight teaching prejudice on the grade two and the conditions on the grade three are absolutely obvious. From this research result we could understand, classroom psychological environment on the grade one can get the visible and positive impact by comparing with grade two and grade three. There is slight difference between grade two and grade three.4. Teaching prejudice will also make a great difference on science and arts classes. The impact on arts class is better than science. But as the difference of the teachers’ own identity, classroom psychological environment on science classes could gain the better impact.5. Teaching prejudice will make the less different impact on different sexes.6. Teaching prejudice will not make the great different impact on city students and countryside students.7. Teaching prejudice will make the little different impact on different national students.Thus, here are the most important points one should pay attention to:1. Teachers should pay enough attentions to the points of teaching prejudice existing in daily teaching correctly; and know it has positive and passive impact.2. Mathematics teachers have to avoid the passive teaching prejudice on classroom psychological environment but make any efforts to create a better teaching environment.3. Mathematics teaching should be focus on different identity of the study groups as there are much great different impact on the teaching prejudice and different groups’math classroom learning environment.
