Changes and highlights of the new mathematics curriculum standards

The changes and highlights of the new mathematics curriculum standards are as follows:

1. The connotation of the core competencies of mathematics is clearly defined.

The 2022 version of the new curriculum standards adds the concept of core literacy: being able to observe the real world from a mathematical perspective, thinking about the real world using mathematical thinking, and expressing the real world using mathematical language.

The direction of mathematics described in these "three meetings" is very clear, which is to return mathematics to the real world and practical applications, and stop delving into those difficult questions. In the future, the number of applied questions in assessments will increase, and the number of questions in joint related disciplines will also increase.

2. Adjustment and refinement of the division of academic sections.

The 2011 version of the curriculum standards for primary and secondary schools is divided into two academic periods, while the 2022 version of the new curriculum standards is divided into three academic periods: the first academic period is for the first and second grades, and students are required to be able to teach in the classroom. Under the guidance of the teacher, simple mathematical problems are raised from daily life. The second stage of schooling is for the third and fourth grade. Students are required to try to independently discover and raise mathematical problems from daily life, and explore and analyze methods to solve problems.

The third stage of schooling is for fifth and sixth grade students. Students are required to discover and ask questions in real situations, explore and apply basic quantitative relationships, and integrate other subject knowledge such as intuition and logical reasoning to interrelate.

New mathematics curriculum standards:

The Ministry of Education officially promulgated the compulsory education curriculum plan and curriculum standards (2022 version) in April 2022. As far as the curriculum plan is concerned, this is the first systematic revision in the 20 years since the implementation of the 2001 "Experimental Plan for Compulsory Education Curriculum"; in terms of curriculum standards, this is the first systematic revision in the 10 years since the implementation of the 2011 Compulsory Education Curriculum Standards.

The new mathematics curriculum standards are divided into six parts: course nature, course concept, course objectives, course content, academic quality, and course implementation. Each section has some new content changes and adjustments. The new curriculum standard defines mathematics as the science that studies quantitative relationships and spatial forms.

In terms of core competencies, the mathematics discipline cultivates students from three dimensions: "the ability to observe the real world with mathematical eyes, the ability to think about the real world with mathematical thinking, and the ability to express the real world with mathematical language" .

Enable students to acquire basic mathematical knowledge, basic skills, basic ideas, and basic activity experience (hereinafter referred to as the "four basics"), and develop students' ability to use mathematical knowledge and methods to discover, propose, analyze, and solve problems ( (hereinafter referred to as "four abilities").
