The data were collected from the series of four lessons in the fifth grade by teaching experiment methodology conducted following the professional development project implemented lesson study and open approach in Thailand. The results show that extension and integration sequence is an appropriate subject matter to generate lesson for problem-solving classroom. The sequence of lesson leads students to excitement, curiosity, confidence and intimacy in mathematics that are powerful effects of mathematical creativity. Students can produce the different and various ways to solve problems that indicate their divergent thinking.展开更多

And with the help of continuous language information processing and language accumulation, people cultivate their ability of English thinking, which is the goal of English-learning and English-teaching people. As a high-school English teacher, the author, combining her own class teaching experience in relate to English thinking, uses trial and error tests, investigations, interviews, and other research methods based on high-school students' study, to explore the strategies of how to cultivate high-school students' ability of English thinking in English classes, and then sum up to get the following article, which is hoped to provide some references to form the English thinking ability of senior high school students展开更多

Critical thinking has long been recognized as an important part of the curricular framework in education western countries. However, the instruction of critical thinking has not gained prominence in Chinese universities. The author does research on how to foster students' critical thinking skills in the college English classrooms, and proposes some methods and techniques to facilitate the skills: change teachers' concept of language teaching, create a flexible atmosphere in the classrooms, teach students how to raise questions, and teach them to express logically.展开更多

Gifted children refer to a group of children who have such characteristics as high IQ (intelligence quotient), strong creativity, and good personality. Their intelligence and capability have great potential for further development. As cognitive ability is one of the prominent characteristics of supernormal children, the lecturers can not only pay attention to teaching knowledge (facts teaching), but also need provide proper opportunities for them to develop their aggressiveness, creativities, and challenges when teaching these children. Because students are active in thinking, in the classroom, students often have some unexpected ideas, that is, the generation of the classroom, in the face of this situation, teachers should be how to do? A joke between students in the class, sparked the interest of a classmate, and then under the teachers' guidance, they invented a chemistry experiment instrument Ω type pipe, illustrated the importance of the teachers focus on creating teaching.展开更多
