Research On Creative Thinking Assessment In Chemistry Test Of College Entrance Examination In China Since 1978

Creative thinking is one of the necessary abilities for students to solve complex problems.As a basic tool to test students' ability,college entrance examination questions can reflect the goal of curriculum education.Therefore,the analysis of creative thinking in high school chemistry can start from the chemistry examination questions of college entrance examination.The "four wings" requirement proposed by the new college entrance examination evaluation system establishes a new standard for the examination of chemistry.Based on this,this study combined with the current domestic and foreign research results related to creative thinking,trying to construct the creative thinking research framework of college entrance examination chemistry questions,and using quantitative and qualitative research methods to make a comprehensive comparison of chemical creative thinking related questions.This paper attempts to find out the characteristics and development trend of creative thinking in the chemistry examination of college entrance examination in China,and provides feasible suggestions for the design of chemistry examination questions in college entrance examination and high school chemistry teaching.This research is divided into the following six parts:The first part is the introduction,which mainly introduces the research background,research problems and research significanc.The second part is the literature review,which defines the core concepts such as "creation","creative thinking" and "chemical creative thinking",and interprets the related studies of test analysis and creative thinking evaluation.The third part is the research design.This part mainly elaborates the research ideas and process.The chemistry test questions of college entrance examination since 1978 are selected as the research object,and the creative thinking framework and the test question analysis framework are set up.The fourth and fifth parts are empirical analysis.These two parts respectively present the characteristics and development trend of creative thinking.The sixth part elaborates the conclusion and reflection of this research,and puts forward some suggestions on the creative thinking teaching and related test questions.The main conclusions are as follows:(1)Since 1978,The frequency of tests related to creative thinking has decreased first and then increased.The frequency of test questions of creative ideas and different ideas increased,while that of test questions of evaluation and improvement of ideas decreased.(2)In terms of specific dimensions of creative thinking,the test questions mainly test students' ability to generate creative ideas,followed by the ability to evaluate and improve ideas and generate different ideas.(3)Since 1978,the difficulty of the test questions increased first,then decreased,and finally leveled off.Overall,the difficulty of the test questions showed an upward trend.(4)The average absolute difficulty of the test questions was,in descending order,"generating creative ideas","evaluating and improving ideas","generating different ideas".(5)From the perspective of problems,the design of experimental exploration scheme and the design of organic synthesis route account for the largest proportion.(6)The context of the problem mainly includes the context of experimental exploration,academic exploration and production environment protection.The knowledge points commonly tested in the examination are:the properties and transformation of typical inorganic substances,the design of chemical experiment scheme,the properties and transformation of a series of organic substances,etc.The test questions basically examine the ability of inquiry and innovation,and a small part of the test questions examine the ability of induction and argumentation,analysis and speculation,understanding and differentiation.Most of the questions examine a high level of core discipline literacy.In the aspect of chemistry creative thinking teaching,it is suggested that teachers pay attention to the foundation of chemistry subject,cultivate the key ability of chemistry subject,pay attention to the transformation of scientific and technological achievements,carefully create a real situation,innovate the way of classroom questioning,and train students' high-level thinking.In the aspect of designing test questions with creative thinking,it is suggested that proposition workers should optimize the quality of test questions through creative thinking index,comprehensively consider the answer of test questions,optimize the scoring standard,and appropriately improve the difficulty and openness of test questions.
