A Study Of Physics Concept MapsTeaching In Junior High School

This thesis elaborates systemically the definition,the categories,the teaching functions,the teaching signification,and the psychological base of the concept maps.Special stress is laid on the research of the theories and the practice in the construction of the concept maps and the application of the concept maps to physics teaching.In the research of the theories and the practice in the construction of the concept maps,the construction of the concept maps integrated curriculum resources is carefully studied.On the foundation of teaching practice and the experience of excellent teachers,the teaching mode of the physics concept maps in the junior high school is summed up.The impact of concept maps teaching on junior high school students'thinking depth is researched through the experiment of using concept maps in optics teaching in junior high school.The result of experiment indicates that the teaching using concept maps can improve the thinking depth of junior high school students in physics studying.
