The education of chemical basic conception in middle school can influence students'ability to grasp chemical knowledge and to solve problems. Therefore, the training of chemical basic conception for students has an important effect on chemical learning.The history of chemistry is not only the history of both knowledge and method, but also the resources of rich mental treasure. Furthermore, it has special effect on cultivating the students' chemical basic conception. Teaching combined with education of chemistry history will be more facilitated to cultivate students'chemical basic conception.So far, there are relatively fewer studies in this field. Therefore, we selected chemical history education as our primary point to cultivate students'chemical basic conception.We elaborated the educating and teaching function of chemistry history and the methods and ways of chemistry history education, generalized chemical basic conception about its definition, conforming process and contents, discussed the relationship of chemistry history and chemical basic conception and the methods of using chemistry history to cultivate chemical basic conception, practised the method of using chemistry history to cultivate chemical basic conception in daily teaching works, carried out questionnaire investigations to assess the effect of this teaching method and analyzed and summarized the results of the questionnaire.The results indicate that making the best of chemical history in chemistry teaching could be facilitated for students to grasp chemical basic conception. |
