Abstract

The mathematics reform of basic education in China has attracted worldwide attention. Based on the new edition of mathematics curriculum standards of compulsory education stage issued by the Ministry of education in 2011, this paper illustrates the overall framework of China's basic mathematics education reform, analyzes the characteristics of the curriculum objectives, curriculum implementation, and teaching suggestions, especially the part about the mathematics problem-solving. The aim of this study is to promote a comprehensive understanding of mathematics education researchers to the new round of mathematics education reform in China and to enhance the deep communication between Chinese mathematics education and the world mathematics education.

Highlights

  • As the foundation of modern science and technology, mathematics has been highly valued by the Chinese government [1]

  • The Ministry of Education of the People’s Republic of China issued the new edition of mathematics curriculum standards of compulsory education stage (MCSCES) in 2011, which marked the beginning of the new round of basic mathematics education reform in China [6,7]

  • It could be seen from the analysis above that the new edition of MCSCES changed a lot and put forward many new ideas

Summary

Introduction

As the foundation of modern science and technology, mathematics has been highly valued by the Chinese government [1].

It can be seen from the achievements obtained by Chinese middle school students in the International Mathematics Olympiad and the PISA (Program for International Student Assessment) tests. The Ministry of Education of the People’s Republic of China issued the new edition of mathematics curriculum standards of compulsory education stage (MCSCES) in 2011, which marked the beginning of the new round of basic mathematics education reform in China [6,7]. Wang etc. reviewed the recent progress in the reform of mathematics curriculum in China in the early 21st century and introduced the Compulsory Education Mathematics Curriculum (2001 edition, 2011 edition) [8], more in-depth research needs to be done.So this paper will analyze and elaborate on it according to the new edition of MCSCES issued in 2011
