Research On Programming Teaching Practice In Junior High School Guided By The Cultivation Of Creative Thinking

In recent years,Chinese government has successively issued a number of documents related to artificial intelligence education,emphasizing the need to cultivate innovative talents in the stage of basic education and encouraging governments at all levels,primary and secondary schools in various regions to set up courses related to programming education in order to popularize programming education,and lay a solid foundation for cultivating innovative talents.Creative thinking is the necessary ability for innovative talents.Students need continuous innovation and breakthrough in programming education and teaching.Therefore,programming education and teaching is an effective way to cultivate creative thinking.The existing teaching mode of programming education is relatively traditional.It is easy to appear boring phenomenon in the process of education and teaching.Creative thinking is an abstract thinking that is difficult to measure accurately.Hence how to improve students' creative thinking in programming education and teaching needs more in-depth research.Through reading and sorting out the literature,this study shows a preliminary understanding of the current situation of programming education,teaching and creative thinking research.Using the method of questionnaire,a field survey on the actual situation of programming education teaching combined with the actual situation of the school and the characteristics of students in the author's school has been conducted.Under the guidance of constructivism theory,learning by doing,recent development zone and creative education theory,the linkage model of creative thinking,innovative thinking and the "micro innovation" mode based on reverse engineering have been used as a frame of reference for the study.According to the curriculum standard of youth programming education in China,the teaching activity design of junior middle school programming education has been worked out,guided by the cultivation of creative thinking,mainly including five links: situational perception,deconstruction,observation and recovery,redesign,production and debugging,display,evaluation and reflection.Take the students of the author's school as the research object to carry out three rounds of iterative teaching practice action research afterwards.Through each round of teaching practice feedback data,modify and adjust the teaching activity design.An effective and reliable teaching activity design is finally formed,which also summarizes the teaching activity strategies,including the strategies of using situational teaching method to stimulate students' creative will mind mapping,helping students improve their creative learning strategies,stimulating students' creativity brainstorming strategies,improving students' creative actions role-based collaborative learning strategies,and various evaluation mechanisms which can promote students' creative achievements.Eventually,by comparing the original data and the final one,analyzing the results before and after the control class,it is found that the design and implementation of programming education teaching activities in this study have indeed effectively improved the creative thinking of junior middle school students.
