Research On The Application Of Mind Map For The Cultivation Of Computational Thinking

The call for innovative talents in the information age is imminent.With the promulgation of the domestic high school information technology curriculum standards in 2017,the formulation and positioning requirements of the core literacy of the disciplines,computational thinking as one of the four core literacy,is the thinking ability that everyone should have.It is considered to be an essential skill that is as important as reading and writing.Many foreign educational practice studies have shown that mind mapping can effectively promote students'cognitive development and knowledge construction.Ra However,the domestic educational application research is relatively lacking in this aspect,and there is little research on the comprehensive and in-depth combination of it and the core literacy"computational thinking"of the specific information technology discipline.To this end,based on the research status at home and abroad,this paper systematically studies computational thinking and mind maps,clarifying computational thinking,several important functions "definition of problems",,abstract functions","building models","tuning improvements" Wait.Based on the theory of constructivism,brain science,and knowledge visualization,the combination of mind mapping and computational thinking has made the traditional teaching model flexible and improved,and constructed a teaching application model for training computing thinking.Combine test questionnaires,work sharing scores,interviews and Dr scratch evaluation tools.Help students master the method steps and subject professional knowledge of game production,and develop students'computational thinking ability.The specific research contents of this study are as follows:The first chapter is the introduction part,which explains the importance of computational thinking to personal development in the context of the current era.The mind map is used as an auxiliary tool for teaching and learning to students.The promotion of computational thinking,as well as the research significance,research methods,research status and research content of this research.The second chapter is to sort out the concept.The definitions and characteristics of computational thinking and mind mapping at home and abroad are discussed separately.At the same time,explain the theoretical basis of the research and develop the foundation for the development of the experiment.The third chapter is the construction process of task-driven teaching mode for cultivating students'computational thinking by using mind mapping.The fourth chapter is mainly based on the teaching experiment research of computational thinking training based on mind map.First,determine the hypothesis of the study;secondly,design the experimental plan;finally,carry out the actual teaching application according to the instructional design.The fifth chapter mainly analyzes and discusses the collected student data.Includes qualitative and quantitative analysis of questionnaires,interviews,and grade data.And through the analysis of the data,some conclusions and suggestions are drawn.The sixth chapter is mainly a summary of the whole research,including reflection and analysis of the inadequacies of the research,and prospects for subsequent research.The three research questions in this study have the following conclusions through the analysis of the data obtained by the experiment:(1)The application of mind map in teaching has a significant impact on students'computational thinking.(2)There are significant d:ifferences:in the influence of mind map on students with different computational thinking.Among them,they have the greatest help to middle-level students,the least for high-level students,and the middle-level students.(3)The combination of mind map and Dr.Scratch evaluation tool can realize the personalized teaching of students'computational thinking.
