In recent years, with the deepening of the basic education curriculum reform, the research of educational teaching theory has been perfected gradually. When we are introducing the foreign theory, we also keep an eye on the innovation of the native teaching theory system, and we have had remarkable effect. The most important target of the new basic education curriculum reform is to change the situation that commonly found in the present education: the students learn passively, mechanical memorizing, and repeated excising, so as to advocate the change of learning method. Therefore, modern learning methods like autonomous learning, cooperative learning and inquiry learning are introduced into the middle school chemistry class.The middle school chemistry class is the main force of the basic education curriculum reform. However, the high school or junior school teacher can't understand the main points of the reform, for their absence of the theoretical knowledge and the restrictions of traditional ideas. And it has brought many problems. For example, they don't quite understand the essential characteristics of the new learning methods so they don't take actions to interfere with their study. And they view cooperative learning as group discussion, so they give no instructions in the learning process. They even believe that inquiry learning is equated with scientific research, and place high requirement on the students.Accordingly, it is necessary to review the learning method theory, and make an analysis of the characteristics of the three learning methods and their application mode in middle school chemistry teaching. This will be helpful for the middle school chemistry teachers to get an overall idea of the modern learning method so that they could improve teaching quality and cultivate the students' scientific literacy and innovation spirit.This thesis first introduces the study of learning method and then analyzes the characteristics, development function and their limitations of three typical learning methods: autonomous learning, cooperative learning and inquiry learning. Finally, it illustrates the application mode of the modern learning methods in middle school chemistry class by describing the teaching activity in a middle school chemistry class.This thesis is based on the psychology related to learning methods and pedagogy. It absorbs the former success and other teachers' experience, and finally explores the organization form of middle school chemistry teaching in years of teaching practice. According to the inner logic of different learning content of the middle school chemistry teaching syllabus and the cognitive style of the learning subject, teachers should instruct students to choose the proper learning method, so as to arouse students' learning interests, and ensure students have access to autonomous learning, cooperative learning and inquiry learning, and in this process they could master a scientific ways of learning and acquire a scientific attitude.
