Research on Mathematics Expression Ability among Chinese High School Students

Abstract

Mathematics expression ability is of great significance to the development of students' logical thinking. It is an essential ability required in the new mathematics curriculum standards, and it is also the focus of the current high school entrance examination and National College Entrance examination. This study used the China National Knowledge Internet (CNKI) as a data source to summarize and sort out previous research in order to provide suggestions for current teaching and found that: (1) Current domestic research on mathematics expression ability of high school students mainly focuses on the following five aspects: connotations and classification of mathematics expression ability, development status of mathematics expression ability, evaluation frameworks of mathematics expression ability, strategies for cultivating students' mathematics expression ability, and the mathematics expression ability of special groups of students. (2) There is relatively little research on the evaluation frameworks and influencing factors of mathematics expression ability, and most training strategies focus on how teachers teach, with very few on how students learn. Previous researchers use self-made test papers, questionnaires or interview outlines to investigate and research, and some researchers base their research on theoretical thinking or teaching experience. (3) Therefore, based on current research, future research needs to adopt more scientific research tools, a more reasonable analysis framework, expand the research scope, increase validation research, and give more scientific suggestions. So that the research on the mathematics expression ability of high school students is more comprehensive, systematic, and profound.
