Features: Research-based Learning, as an important approach and carrier for cultivating students' innovative spirit and practical abilities, is undoubtedly a hot, bright spot, and challenge in the current curriculum reform of basic education both at home and abroad. How can this new form of curriculum smoothly enter primary and secondary schools in China and truly become an important part of the basic education curriculum structure? This is a concern for all educational administrative officials in the field of basic education, curriculum and teaching researchers at all levels, principals, teachers, and some higher education theorists. Based on the author's recent "immersion" in research-based learning curriculum experiments in more than ten middle schools across the country, and referring to the experience of implementing research-based learning courses in developed countries, this book tightly grasps the core of transforming advanced educational concepts into practical, implementable practices for school principals and teachers. It uses the results of the experiments to answer the various confusions and questions of frontline education practitioners regarding the implementation of research-based learning, making a very valuable and meaningful attempt to explore the establishment of curriculum norms for research-based learning. This book is primarily aimed at school principals, teachers, and curriculum and teaching researchers at all levels, with the purpose of promoting the entry of research-based learning into primary and secondary schools. It adheres to practicality and originality, avoids blindly applying foreign theories, refrains from condescending criticism, and does not create or play with jargon, making it highly valuable as a reference for guiding primary and secondary schools in implementing research-based learning courses.
