Information technology not only provides us with a kind of brand-new education mode, but also a kind of challenge to education. How to effectively utilize information technology to instruct our teaching practice is a hot problem as well as a difficult problem of curriculum reform. The application of information technology in various subjects has a far-reaching impact on the current teaching mode, which is to investigate the problem of information technology and curriculum integration. At the same time, it is the key problems of teaching practice to us teachers while we are performing quality education reform.In order to explore maths course teaching mode for high school, through this paper I conduct a thorough careful analysis on teaching mode both theoretically and practically.The first part of the paper presents basic education reform and the influence of information technology on maths teaching. Driven by the education reform, we must take action to find out ideal teaching methods with the help of information technology.The second part will introduce some research achievements about the integration of information technology and mathematics curriculum at home and abroad.The third part mainly states the theoretical research on the integration of information technology and the high school mathematics curriculum, especially referring to the concept of information technology and the middle school mathematics curriculum integration. Cognitive theory, constructivism theory and Bruna's discovery learning theory are included.The fourth part is the major of the paper, which mainly introduces the case studies while I teach maths with the help of the information technology. In detail, the application of information technology in teaching geometry, trigonometric functions and analytic geometry is discussed. And comments are made on teaching practice and exploring activities, feedback reflection, teaching evaluation and so on.The fifth part is the results and evaluation analysis of the research experiment, including the experimental design and implementation of the questionnaire survey, data analysis and the comparison of scores between the experimental classes.The sixth part deals with problems which may arise from the integration of information technology with mathematics curriculum and varied opinions on the current practice of the integration of information technology with curriculum. Some teachers overuse information technology and lose the teacher's leading position, which should be avoided.
