High School Students Biological Reading Ability, Practice And Research

The key issue of contemporary education is to develop students'learning ability. Since reading ability is the basis of learning ability, developing students'learning ability should start with the reading ability. However, when referring to reading, most people would think of the reading in the subject of Chinese and some foreign languages. Few would relate reading to biology or other subjects.

Thus, teachers should pay attention to the development of students'reading ability in biology class of secondary school.First, essence of reading and characteristics of biological reading are introduced in this article. On the basis of analyzing current situation of biological reading in secondary school, we demonstrate the necessity of developing students'reading ability in biology class. Besides, with the combination of cognitive development theory, constructivism theory and the specialty of biology education content, we discuss the way to implement the strategy of biological reading education. Doing the statistic analysis of examination paper in both pretesting and posttesting, we provide specific cases in biological reading and briefly summarize some problem that should be paid attention to in reading activity.The purpose of this article mainly indicates:firstly, analyze the value of biological reading education; secondly, provide some advice about carrying out the idea of biological reading education.
