| The theory and practice of biology research study in Junior High School raised recently, which is opposite to the traditional passive acceptable study. It reflects the revolution of curriculum fully and conforms to the requirement of education for all aspect in modern society. Now days, there are generally three problems in class: First, the students activities are mainly controlled by the teachers and the teachers can disrupt the students thinking and discussing at random. In fact, this kind of activity serves for the transmitting of knowledge, which is only a form, It' s not democratic at all, let alone embody the students opinion. Second, the questioning in class is dominated by teachers, too. Using some low level questions that need simple reasoning and memory mainly to make sure whether the students, understand the knowledge or not. While it is valuable to ask questions, do the students often ask questions to the teachers? Third, the knowledge is only about the textbooks, which has little relation with life. Students learn the knowledge to do exercises and take part in exams, but they seldom solve the practical matters in reality. Therefore, research study has great value in researching and exploring.Seen from the achievements of the research recently, main of them referring to pure theory or using the small topics after class for a long period, it is hardly performed in class. And the majority is in Senior High School. This thesis is mainly about the study in Junior High School.Inquiry learning can help to motivate the students interest and sense of questioning, develop their thirst for knowledge, strengthen their ability of collecting and handing information, strengthen their ability of creating and communicating, strength their social sense ofresponsibility and improve their scientific accomplishment to let them develop in full scale.Inquiry learning is a high - level of studying which means that students choose and research a subject from subject fields or the real life situation according to their interest, love and ability under the guide of the teachers to gain knowledge, use knowledge and solve problems on their own initiative in the way which is similar to scientific research, in order to develop creative quality, form scientific spirit and scientific attitude, and improve the comprehensive quality and ability. Spoken from essence, it means giving the teaching sovereignty back to the students and make them the real masters in the initiative and positive study circumstances.The essential features of inquiry learning are: questioning . opening exploring .bodying.practicing. First, emphasize the procedure, It emphasizes the procedure of study, study of thinking methods and improvement of thinking level. Second, emphasize application, It emphasizes the application of knowledge skills, but not the quantity of the knowledge obtained. Third, emphasize experience, It emphasizes that students take part in the study activity which is similar to the scientists research to obtain the firsthand experience, experience the change of the emotion experience and arouse the creative enthusiasm. Fourth, emphasize participance . It faces to the whole students, advocates the positive participance of the whole students and let 100% of students obtain the best development, study and research by learning cooperation, The learners can learn from others and learn how to communicate and cooperate in order to obtain high-level result.The theoretical foundation of inquiry learning: Second, the study theory of Piaget s constructionism, The center of constructionism lies in making students construct and complete their own cognition foundationon their own initiative according to inquiry learning, and achieve removement successfully, Constructionism in inquiry learning, emphasizes the researching and exploring functions of the students in the procedure of knowledge s internal change, emphasizes the creation of questionable situations during study procedure, emphasizes knowledge s foundation and renewal,...
