Features: This book is the result of the National Education Science "Fifteenth Five-Year" Plan Key Project of the Ministry of Education, "Research on the Evaluation of Competencies in Primary School Mathematics and Chinese Curriculum Reform." The author combines the reform experiments of primary school mathematics and Chinese curricula, employing vivid subject evaluation cases and comments, as well as teachers' personal experiences and parents' simple dialogues, to explore, analyze, and introduce diverse evaluation methods and approaches. For example, how to implement and record daily observations, how to create effective paper-and-pencil test questions, how to establish and improve comment systems, how to develop and evaluate performance tasks in mathematics and Chinese, how to establish and analyze students' portfolios, how to conduct "secondary evaluations" for students, as well as home-school collaboration, teacher-student joint participation in evaluation, and the diversification of themes, etc. Each chapter is elaborated and analyzed in terms of "problem, solution, case study, and reflection," systematically summarizing the teaching experiments of the research team and the rich experience accumulated in practice. They have integrated theory with practice, accumulating a large number of evaluation case studies. This book is highly practical and offers significant reference value for primary school teachers and other practitioners, as well as relevant researchers.
