Classification of scientific thinking levels and its application in unit teaching
Scientific thinking is an essential component of the core literacy for biology.The classification of thinking level can serve as a reference scale for frontline teachers.This paper creates a scale of scientific thinking level for junior high school biology from three dimensions:types of knowledge,scientific thinking methods,and question contexts.In addition,the paper proposes strategies for applying the scale in teaching design and student assessment when it is combined with the unit teaching model advocated in new curriculum teaching,to promote the development of students'scientific thinking.
