The famous "2061 Plan" raised the importance of scientific literacy to the national level.The development of the country lies in education,and the core of education is science education,and the scientific literacy of students represents the national interests.The level of middle school students' scientific literacy has a profound influence on the development of the countryIn the process of the formation of scientific literacy,the influence of different disciplines on scientific literacy is different,that is,the corresponding subject literacy appears.As an important part of middle school education,physics education plays an important role in cultivating students' scientific literacy.In the process of studying physics,the students gradually form the subject literacy which adapts to the needs of individual lifelong development and social development,including the four aspects of physics concept,scientific thinking,experimental exploration,scientific attitude and responsibility.The important role of physics education is to cultivate students with correct and positive scientific attitude,so scientific attitude becomes the main content and measure index of physics subject accomplishment.At the same time,a good scientific attitude helps the students to improve their interest in learning,and helps them to understand the content of the study and promote the development of the students'scientific literacy.In the process of physics teaching in the whole middle school stage,what kind of changes have taken place in the students' scientific attitude,what kind of influence and what problems have existed in the middle school physics education in this process,this is the content which this text wants to discuss.By using the CLASS scientific attitude measurement scale(physics)developed by the University of Colorado in the United States,the study was carried out from two junior high schools in Xi' an city,Weinan city,Baoji city,Yulin city,Ankang city,2 junior middle schools and 3 high schools in Xi' an,Shaanxi Province.Three senior high schools are provincial key senior high schools.The author randomly selects two classes at each grade of each school to carry out the questionnaire.The conclusion is as follows:1.In the whole process of physics teaching in middle school from the second grade to the third grade,the overall level of the middle school students' scientific attitude shows the inverted "V" type.That is to say,in junior middle school,the measurement results of scientific attitude showed a significant rise,and reached its peak in the third phase of junior high school.From the beginning of junior high school to senior high school,the scientific attitude showed a significant decline,and this downward trend existed in the senior middle school.Finally,in the third year of high school tend to be stable.2.There are differences in different dimensions in different grades.In junior middle school,students'"personal interest","problem-solving ability","problem-solving proficiency" and "conceptual application" are on the rise.In the middle and high school convergence process,the students'"personal interest" and "problem-solving ability" have declined.This resulted in an extremely significant decline in problem-solving confidence and problem-solving proficiency.In the first and second years of high school,the achievement of "physics and real world connection" declined for the first time,and the decline was extremely significant,and the accompanying effect was the result of"conceptual understanding".There was a marked decline.The decline of "physics and real world connection","conceptual understanding" and "problem-solving ability" in the second to third years of senior high school has slowed down,and the "problem solving proficiency" has increased significantly.3.There are gender differences in the development of scientific attitudes.In the aspect of scientific attitude measurement,the performance of girls in junior middle school is better than that of boys,but boys achieve reverse surpassing in high school,and the overall level is higher than that of girls.The overall trend of female students is more stable,the level of male scientific attitude is higher,but the overall trend is unstable,prone to ups and downs,with the deepening of learning,the difference between boys and girls is decreasing.In order to promote the scientific literacy of middle school students,some suggestions are put forward for physics teachers on the basis of the above conclusions.In view of the problems generally exposed by students,it is suggested to improve students' interest,increase experimental teaching and effectively reduce gender differences.It is hoped that it can be used as a reference for teachers' teaching.This paper studies the scientific attitude of middle school students through scientific,serious and strict research methods and actions.Based on the original research,this study enriches the research on middle school students and plays an important role in the education of middle school students.
