Action Research On Improving Group Cooperative Learning Of Senior Mathematical Classroom Via Mind Mapping

The key points on basic education curriculum reform are the change of teaching methods and the change of students ’ learning methods respectively.Group cooperative learning is one of students ’ learning methods of high school new curriculum.However,in real applications,it has limitations for improvement.Mind map is one of graphics thinking tools for describing emanative thinking and has been widely applied in real applications.However,it is seldom used in education and teaching.According to our interview in some a middle school in Yulin city,Guangxi province,China,we find the students,regardless any level,do not found their learning habits of induction and summarization.I think I can embed mind map into group cooperative learning of senior mathematical classroom,aiming to enable group cooperative learning methods of high school new curriculum to be carried out smoothly,and to culture students’ cooperative spirit and creative spirit to form good thinking habit and learning habit.My research via using qualitative research methods,such as observation,interview and real analysis,to record the study process and to collect related data.Then I arrange and analyze the derived material.Finally,I make the following conclusions:1.To use mind map in group cooperative learning of senior mathematical classroom helps students to analyze problem and arrange networked resources.Moreover,it benefits for culturing good thinking habits of the students.2.Mind map directly and visually describes knowledge structure,and effectively shows the thinking process of students.Both of them help to form students’ self-evaluation and good learning habits.3.Mind map is an effective tool on group cooperative learning of senior mathematical classroom.It benefits for students’ cooperative consciousness,responsibility consciousness and training students’ creative spirit.During my research process,on one hand,I find that there exists a conflict between experimental processes and the real cases.On the other hand,some students are with low participation and low consciousness.In my future work,I will focus on the following points,such as introducing concept map as well as mathematical modeling into group cooperative learning of senior mathematical classroom.
