Tentative Study On Nurturing Middle School Students' Creative Thinking In Chemistry Teaching

With the international competitions being more and more severe, the ability of creation has gone deep into every field, and every aspect. The key point of creation lies in the creation thinking and the cultivation of the ability to create.To create, the most important is to have the creation thinking, creation thinking is a kind of thoughts of creation activities, a special way of thinking, as well as a higher form of creative activities. Creation thinking is also called creative thought, which refers to the rearrangement of information in one's mind under the strong desire of creation. It is to discover the characteristics and rules of some phenomena, to form a new understanding of recognition form and make it reach a higher level so as to explore the unknown, create new knowledge.It shows the most active thinking ability of human beings. Creation thinking is based on logical thoughts and is the major content and form of divergent thought, which, in particular, shows the fluency, flexibility, accuracy, uniqueness, radiation and divergence of thinking.Based on the former study, and the concrete characteristics of the development of thoughts of the youth, this article demonstrates the ideas of how to cultivate the student's creative thinking in Chemistry teaching.It gives examples to demonstrate the theoretical lessons, laboratory lessons, exercise lessons as well as out-class activities. It also systematically demonstrates the techniques of creation and the design of creative teaching models, aiming to make the students know how to think, dare to create and be able to create, show the central role of the students in teaching, and make the students learn to think creatively as well as show his personalities effectively.Teachers' creativity is one of the most important factors for the students to foster their creative thinking. As a result of this, teachers should not only respect each student and their personalities, but also care for their interests and hobbies.Teachers should treat every student in an equal, friendly, and lenient way in order to make the students exploit their potentialities of creative thinking. As is known to us, democratic teaching atmosphere is really the objective conditions where students can tap their talent power and blazing their new trails. Besides, teachers should be adept in encouraging students to keep forging ahead, train students to improve their self-confidence for developing new ideas, gain their courage of new achievement, urge them to explore and choose new things. Teachers should stimulate the desires and demands of the students which can constantly bring forth new ideas. This can help to impel the students in such a good state that can blaze new trails.In teaching process, teaching goes with practicing, Students ought to be intense but orderly work in their study. Students should master the knowledge, train their skills and abilities while they are learning in their learning activities. This conforms to the objective laws of human brains. It can also coordinate relations among new ideas such as logical thinking, thinking in images, concentrating on thinking, decentralizing on thinking and so on. All of these exist together, help each other forward, and develop their coordination which is in keeping with the students' development of new thinking.Above all, classroom teaching is the main channel used as educating students' new thinking, and teaching process in chemistry is the more effective way to train students' creative thinking.
