Education is the soul of a nation, which determines the future of a country. With the progress of science and technology and the developments of society, human’s material civilization rapidly increases, all countries in the world are beginning to realize to reform education in order to survive and development.

As a basic study, chemistry has the close relation to the development of the society. In the United States’chemistry course reform, they put forward the chemistry teaching should train students’scientific literacy for the purpose, not to develop chemical science and technology talents. They advocate to cultivate the rigorous attitude to science, paying attention to the scientific literacy of the whole people. Japan paid great attention to the student’s survival ability and basic skill to live.In the new curriculum reform of chemistry,they focused on the inquiry, increased the proportion of the practice activities, ang let students understand the development process of science. In the new curriculum reform in our country, we also requested to raise the students who had survival and competitive talents to adapt to the society, trained the citizens who had the overall development and scientific literacy.Meanwhile, it strengthened the chemistry’s connection to life and production.
