从大学生的一次小测试谈数学语言转化能力的培养

On cultivation of ability to transform mathematic language from a quiz for college students

结合一道中学数学竞赛题进行测试研究,调查大学生数学语言转化能力。结果反映出大学生数学语言转化能力普遍较差。在分析原因的基础上,给出了提高学生数学文字语言和符号语言转化能力的4种策略:深入数学概念的符号语言教学的“再创造”;加强数学符号语言向文字语言的转化的教学;让学生学会用适当的符号来表征数学问题;加强解应用题教学和数学建模。

The study shows that the ability to transform mathematic language is universially poor among college students, combined with the study of maths contest. On the analysing basis of causes ,this paper proposes four strategies of improvement of students’ maths word language and ability to transform sign language :“recreation” of sign language teaching of maths concepts; strengthening transformation from sign language to word language; students’using proper signs to represent maths problems; strengthening teaching of practical problems and maths modelling.
