Research on the Cognitive Degree of Pre-service School Mathematics Teachers for Application Consciousness Literacy

Abstract

Currently, the application of consciousness literacy has been widely concerned by all walks of life. Many scholars have studied the cultivation of application consciousness literacy, but there is no research on the cognitive degree of pre-service school mathematics teachers on application consciousness literacy. In this study, 37 postgraduate students of education in a university were investigated, and the cognitive degree of their application consciousness literacy was investigated by open interview. After that, through data analysis, it can be found that: 1. Pre-service school mathematics teachers have a wide range of application consciousness literacy and recognize most of the content; 2. The overall cognitive depth is low, and the cognition is not deep; 3. The overall cognitive clarity is low, and only a few people have a clear understanding of individual points. Therefore, it is suggested that: 1. Application consciousness literacy courses should be added to mathematics education-related majors in colleges and universities to increase their attention; 2. Pre-service school mathematics teachers should have a comprehensive and profound understanding of the relevant content of application consciousness literacy.
