Features: Reading, thinking, using (Read, think, use) is the new research achievement in the international education field today and has now received high attention from domestic education and research experts. It is bound to bring a revolution in secondary school teaching methods. "Reading" means transforming hard studying into smart studying, integrating and mastering textbook knowledge; "Thinking" means enabling students to grasp the patterns of knowledge learned and cultivate their thinking skills; "Using" means equipping students with comprehensive ability and quality to take exams under the current examination system. The level of teaching quality is not entirely determined by teachers, textbooks, or teaching methods. The above three aspects are only external factors for improving teaching quality, while students' desire for knowledge and initiative are internal factors. Currently, many students study passively. Their learning methods are simple and backward, and they have a considerable degree of individuality and blindness. For example, previewing before class is an important step, which directly affects the quality of the 45-minute class. However, due to students' poor independent learning ability, they only understand previewing as reading through the textbook. As for questions such as what important knowledge points the textbook conveys, how to grasp the key and difficult points in the textbook, how to effectively break through these key and difficult points, and how to use existing knowledge to form unique problem-solving skills and ideas, they rarely think about them. Since students do not think enough before class, they naturally become passive in class, inevitably leading to situations where they are led around by the teacher and subjected to "lecturing from start to finish," while losing valuable opportunities for participation and discussion. "Read, think, use" starts from the perspective of learning, providing students with opportunities for thinking and practice, and helping them develop good learning methods, the ability to collect and process information, the ability to acquire new knowledge, the ability to analyze and solve problems, and the ability to express themselves in language and writing. Specifically, the "Chapter" section of this book includes:
[Preview Self-Construction]: Summarizes the knowledge system, content background, ability requirements, and learning objectives of the chapter for students to preview before class, enabling them to have a clear understanding and targeted approach when attending the class.
