Study on the Logical Reasoning Ability Development of Junior High School Students Based on SOLO Taxonomy

Abstract

Logical reasoning ability, as a vital part of China’s mathematics curriculum objectives, is one of the key abilities that junior high school students should possess. SOLO (Structure of the Observed Learning Outcome) taxonomy is an analysis method pertaining to students’ response to a certain question. Based on SOLO taxonomy, this paper sets up an assessment scale that evaluates the logical reasoning ability level of junior high school students. After analyzing four specific cases, the paper obtains some enlightenment on mathematics teaching, which is supposed to help cultivate the logical reasoning ability of students in actual teaching.
