Features: This series of exercise books is our first collaboration with a national-level publishing house for middle school students. It essentially reflects the teaching practices and experience in talent development and remedial teaching at our school. It is authentic and is expected to be favored by a broad readership. Based on the New Teaching Syllabus and Examination Guidelines, the series innovates in its format design, including sub-sections such as [Review and Reinforce], [Classroom Assignments], [After-School Assignments], and [Olympiad Links]. The exercises are designed with innovation, embodying a fresh, contemporary feel. They emphasize novelty in test intent, content structure, scenario creation, question formulation, and open-ended exploration, striving to reflect the new trends of curriculum, teaching, and examination reforms. This makes them suitable for regions, schools, and students of varying levels. They not only strengthen foundational knowledge but also enhance learning and exam-taking skills.
During the writing process, the following guiding principles and features were fully highlighted:
1. Hierarchical and Progressive Topic Structure: The design fully considers the teaching realities in underdeveloped regions in central and western China and the diverse needs of middle school teachers and students for exercises. Each question is marked with hollow letters A, B, or C at the beginning to indicate its approximate difficulty level, facilitating differentiated instruction and improving the efficiency of practice.
2. Practical and Effective Lesson-Based Design: The most significant difference from other traditional teaching aids is that the assignments are designed per lesson, ensuring synchronization with subject teaching, practicality, and effectiveness. It emphasizes "learning through practice," focusing on what and how to practice in each lesson.
3. Detailed and Standardized Solution Guidance: The answers and explanations are thorough and detailed, highlighting key knowledge points and basic methods, while also providing problem-solving techniques. This addresses both "how to solve" and "how to think about solving" the problem, making it widely applicable. Additionally, each assignment specifies the time limit and scoring criteria, allowing students to practice independently and effectively improve their quality. Thus, this exercise book can also serve as a self-assessment tool for students' learning abilities.
4. Innovative and Extraordinary Educational Philosophy: The writing process fully reflects the requirements of the new teaching and curriculum reforms, embodying the teaching philosophy and educational concepts of the new curriculum. It showcases extraordinary thinking. The selection of questions follows a principle of combining originality with classics, with most exercises reflecting novelty and a fresh, contemporary feel. Efforts are made to strengthen the development and research of ability-based, open-ended, and comprehensive questions. Each subject book includes a certain number of newly created original questions by the authors.
The Qidong Middle School Exercise Books are a high-level, synchronized, in-class training series. They examine questions from the perspectives of exam trends, key points, and question design (the "three exams"), and provide guidance and analysis on problem-solving methods and techniques. They are an excellent supplementary material for students in both junior and senior high school, serving as outstanding aids for practice and examination preparation.
