Features: Divergent thinking, also known as divergent thinking, is a multi-directional way of thinking. Figuratively speaking, it starts from a single point of knowledge and sends out a ray into the knowledge network space, forming connections with two or more points of knowledge, achieving the effect of "one input, multiple outputs." It demonstrates strong multi-directionality, flexibility, and creativity. Applied to learning, divergent thinking can bridge the gap between known and unknown, creating new ideas and problem-solving methods. It enhances understanding, transforms knowledge into intelligence, and truly achieves the effect of "learning one thing and understanding many." The distinguishing feature of this book compared to other similar books is its full utilization of the supplementary book's "function of supporting the foundation and elevating the peak." The necessity of supplementary books lies in their "function of supporting the foundation and elevating the peak." The "foundation" refers to the core knowledge of each subject, or the basic key points of each knowledge unit. These basic points are the foundation for students' understanding and application of knowledge, their. The "peak" refers to the extension, enhancement, and refinement of basic knowledge. Supplementary books should be based on the textbook but also surpass it. If "supporting the foundation" is the basic function of supplementary books, then "elevating the peak" is their soul, the source of their vitality. Based on this understanding of supplementary books, this book reflects its targeting and innovation from four aspects: high standards, new perspectives, broad vision, and extensive thinking. It introduces divergent thinking into the entire process of learning and practice, with the main structure of "divergent thinking guidance and practice" being another feature of the book. In practical application, it is divided into two parts: Divergent Thinking Analysis starts from key points, focus points, and difficult points to analyze the content and relationships of knowledge in this unit, revealing thinking patterns and highlighting problem-solving techniques using divergent thinking methods to achieve comprehensive understanding. Divergent Thinking Application selects typical examples, using multi-angle, multi-aspect, and multi-level divergent thinking on key issues to cultivate students' comprehensive abilities in conceptual differentiation, comprehensive summarization, transformation, thinking transfer, reverse application, experimental design, writing expression, and multiple solutions. Stripping away the trivial and focusing on quality is the third distinctive feature of the book. In the education of the new century, the arrangement of course content requires "focusing on quality." Teachers' classroom explanations should be "few but essential," and supplementary books should also strip away the trivial and focus on quality, enabling students to learn better while reducing their workload. This is also the goal of this book. Therefore, it includes a "Chapter (Unit) Summary" section to help students organize knowledge structures, inspire problem-solving ideas, point out methods and techniques, provide new information, and improve their exam-taking skills. This book opens up an incredible learning world for you, and we hope you will draw nourishment from this wonderful world and successfully knock on the door of a top university in the future. Divergent thinking, or divergent thinking, starts from a single point and reaches the thinking goal through multiple directions. Illustrated, it is a ray sent from a single point to the knowledge network space, forming connections with two or more points of knowledge. It includes horizontal thinking, reverse thinking, and multi-directional thinking. Divergent thinking has the characteristics of multi-directionality, flexibility, fluency, and uniqueness, focusing on multiple approaches and solutions when thinking about problems, and multiple methods and ways when solving problems. For the same problem, it expands horizontally, delves deeply in reverse, and adopts exploration, transformation, variation, transfer, construction, deformation, combination, and decomposition, opening students' minds, stimulating their potential, and enhancing their quality, which is crucial for cultivating creative talents. This series of books strives to closely align with the entire teaching process, focusing on cultivating students' creative thinking abilities, enhancing the flexibility and expansiveness of their thinking, and improving their problem-solving skills. To achieve this, we closely connect with students' learning realities and comprehensively reflect the questions from recent years' national college entrance exams and provincial and municipal middle school entrance exams. Aligned with the teaching syllabus and current textbooks, it covers from the first to the second year of high school, synchronizing with each chapter and unit of the current textbooks. The basic goal is to enable students to use the method of goal management, grasp the key points and direction of learning, and achieve targeted learning, ensuring that each chapter (or unit) meets the expected learning objectives and outcomes. Basic Knowledge Guidance provides a concise overview of the intrinsic knowledge system of each chapter (or unit) and offers insightful analysis of the knowledge points for the middle school and college entrance exams. Key and Difficult Points Guidance highlights the key and difficult points with a stroke of the brush, serving as the main thread for developing divergent thinking. Divergent Thinking Guidance and Practice is the core structure of this series, divided into the following two parts: Divergent Thinking Analysis starts from key points, focus points, and difficult points to analyze the knowledge content and relationships of the chapter (or unit), revealing thinking patterns and highlighting problem-solving rules using divergent thinking methods to achieve comprehensive understanding. Divergent Thinking Application selects typical examples, using multi-angle, multi-aspect, and multi-level divergent thinking on key issues to cultivate students' comprehensive abilities in conceptual differentiation, comprehensive summarization, transformation, thinking transfer, reverse application, experimental design, writing expression, and multiple solutions. Consolidation and Basic Training, Ability Improvement Tests can help students evaluate their classroom learning outcomes; parents can also use them to assess students' mastery of knowledge in each chapter of the textbook. The following types of divergent thinking are used in this book:
- Type Divergence: Transforming typical problems into different types.
- Solution Divergence: Using multiple methods for one problem or one method for multiple problems for flexible training.
- Vertical and Horizontal Divergence: Forming divergent thinking through connections between two or more divergent points, as well as between divergent points and other knowledge points, using examples.
- Transformation Divergence: Maintaining the essence of the original proposition while changing its form.
- Combination Divergence: Combining multiple divergent points to form a type of divergent thinking.
- Transfer Divergence: Solving new situational problems using information or method transfer.
- Decomposition Divergence: Breaking down a complex proposition into simpler propositions and analyzing and solving them one by one.
- Reverse Divergence: Thinking from the goal to the conditions.
- Creative Divergence: Overcoming thinking patterns and solving problems unconventionally.
- Comprehensive Divergence: Integrating connections between divergent points across different chapters of the textbook and between one subject and others.
In summary, this series of books progresses from simple to complex, with in-depth analysis and extensive practice, bringing students' review and exam preparation closer to reality, thereby enhancing their ability to flexibly apply knowledge, improve transfer and adaptability skills, and develop creative thinking abilities.
