The "Problem Solving Upgrade—Mathematical Thinking Training Textbook" series (Volumes 1-6) is written based on the "Outline for the Reform of Basic Education Curriculum" and the "Mathematics Curriculum Standards." Cultivating students' practical abilities is a fundamental feature of current mathematics curriculum reform and also the core content emphasized in the new curriculum standards. The purpose of this series is: First, to enhance students' interest in learning and stimulate their enthusiasm for studying mathematics; second, to allow students to engage in creative learning within their own suitable scope based on their foundation and characteristics, enabling the full development and improvement of children's mathematical abilities on their original level. Third, to cultivate a group of top students who excel in mathematical thinking, mathematical abilities, and mathematical qualities compared to ordinary students, promoting personalized education in children's mathematics, laying a foundation for the country to train outstanding science and technology talents, and ultimately achieving the educational goal of "everyone learning mathematics of value, everyone acquiring necessary mathematics, and different people developing differently in mathematics."
The writing characteristics of this series are:
1. Strong foundation and broad coverage. This book focuses on cultivating students' ability to apply knowledge flexibly, with thinking training as the core. Through vivid explanations and lively, diverse formats, it develops students' ability to solve practical problems, aiming for broad coverage and strong interest, reflecting the requirements of quality-oriented education that originate from the foundation and follow a logical difficulty progression. The examples are analyzed in detail, strengthening guidance on learning methods. The exercises are matched with the examples, both derived from them and progressively more challenging. Students can choose exercises suitable for their mathematical level, allowing students of all levels to experience the joy of success.
2. Scientific arrangement and high practical value. The content of each chapter in this book is arranged in accordance with the requirements of the "Primary School Olympic Mathematics Teaching Outline," striving for consistency while incorporating innovation. It is easy to master, remember, and retrieve. The reference answers are provided at the end of the book, detailed and accurate, making it one of the most attractive forms of extracurricular learning for children. Participating in mathematics competitions can not only inspire students to develop a strong interest in delving into mathematics and foster a positive attitude of practicing courageously and innovating boldly but also broaden their knowledge, improve their mathematical quality, and develop their individual strengths.
3. Excellent editorial team. The teachers who participated in writing this series come from major schools across various provinces. With years of teaching experience, they have accumulated extremely rich teaching expertise and have become national, provincial, and municipal model teachers. This series emphasizes the cultivation of students' mathematical thinking abilities alongside learning mathematical knowledge and skills. It not only caters to the foundational training of most students but also provides a bridge for math-talented students to excel in various competitions.
