Since the European Union and the United States put forward the concept of key competencies or "21st century capability",critical thinking has become a core content of the future talent-training goal of the international community,and it has become the core competence of human lifelong development.Governments attach great importance to the cultivation and research of students' critical thinking,and integrate critical thinking into the educational targets and contents of school in every period of education.The higher education in our country is also increasingly concerned with the students' critical thinking and materially promoted.Nevertheless,the basic schools have not given enough attention to the cultivation of students' critical thinking.At present,there are many subjects' researches of critical thinking,which is far from implemented in the whole process of school curriculum,teaching and evaluation.In fact,focusing on the cultivation of critical thinking under the information technology environment is a timely and forward-looking project,and it is a worthy discussing question to explore the deep integration of education information technology and school education and apply theoretical research to practical improvement.This study is based on the empirical research on the current situation of students' critical thinking skills and tendencies in H district,and the relevant practical research is carried out in S1 School.This study will select two experimental classes and a number of subject case teaching classes in Senior 1 and Senior 2.Through three rounds of teaching action research of IMMEX-C(Interactive Multimedia Exercises-Chinese)critical thinking course in four years,we analyze students' thinking process of solving the problem by using students' quantitative data of solving problems in IMMEX-C platform.Then,we will explore and build a new development model of high school students' critical thinking which based on the “three dimensions-four stages-eight indicators” of IMMEX-C's "teaching-learningevaluation".This study is composed of eight chapters.Chapter 1 focuses on the research background,current situation and significance of research,and puts forward the research questions and elaborates the research methods.Chapter 2 combs and analyzes the theoretical basis of critical thinking and puts forward relevant research hypotheses.Chapter 3 is an empirical research.It statistically analyzes the questionnaire results of high school students' critical thinking tendency and skills and then obtains leading research of the conclusion.Through investigation and research,the most lack of critical thinking ability of high school students is found,so it will analyze which development model to adopt in practice.Chapter 4 is to build a critical thinking development model based on IMMEX-C,and explain the model structure,implementation dimension and evaluation scale,which is also the core breakthrough of this research.Chapter 5,Chapter 6 and Chapter 7 respectively analyze the practice cases of teaching dimension,evaluation dimension and learning dimension of high school students' critical thinking,summarize the implementation results,and put forward the implementation suggestions.Chapter 8 summarizes the basic conclusion and deficiencies of this research,and puts forward the future research prospect.In this study,a hybrid approach combining quantitative research and qualitative research is used.The theoretical basis,practical orientation and practical problems of development of high school students' critical thinking are clarified through literature review and questionnaire survey.Several new IMMEX-C problem sets have been created through curriculum development.More than 50,000 IMMEX-C learning tasks have been distributed through classroom teaching.The critical thinking processes of S1 high school students have been analyzed and tracked by means of interviews,questionnaires and statistical analysis.Through a continuous action research of the process of "practice-estimate-rethink-adjust-practice again",the thinking performance of the students' learning process has been capture and analyze,and then we can summarize experimental results and adjust to propose new implementation suggestions.Through three rounds hybrid approaches of high school students' critical thinking development,it has reached the following conclusion.(1)The high school students' critical thinking tendency is general,the critical thinking skill is a little weak,the short of "evaluation" skill is the most prominent,and the senior students have no obvious advantage in critical thinking skills.(2)Development model focusing on the four thinking stages of discovery,analysis,optimization and evaluation,and then moves in cycle rises in spiral,finally it discovers,tracks and promote the development of students' critical thinking by means of visual thinking.(3)The development of critical thinking based on the IMMEX-C platform has formed a complementary and mutually reinforcing whole with the subject learning in the implementation of course teaching,which makes the action of promoting students' critical thinking development operational.(4)The critical thinking teaching based on IMMEX-C has greatly promoted the transformation of teacher education concept and the transformation of classroom teaching.(5)The eight indicators condensing in the process of exploration provide a new perspective and technical support for the construction of a relatively scientific and complete evaluation of high school students' critical thinking,which effectively promotes the development of students' critical thinking.(6)Critical thinking learning based on the IMMEX-C platform also provides an extendable learning time for enriching students' learning style and optimizing learning process.(7)The IMMEX-C critical thinking courses which is independently set up and integrated with subjects,is an effective carrier of training high school students' critical thinking.
