The 2023 edition of the basic catalogue of experimental teaching in primary and secondary schools was officially released.

　　Cctv newsAccording to the website of the Ministry of Education, in order to thoroughly implement the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, implement the fundamental task of cultivating people by virtue, promote the reform of educational methods, guide the majority of primary and secondary schools to focus on the requirements of the new curriculum and the new educational reform, start experimental classes in full swing, consolidate the practical foundation of basic disciplines, improve the quality of scientific education, and cultivate students’ scientific thinking ability, scientific inquiry and practice ability, scientific attitude and social responsibility. The Department of Basic Education of the Ministry of Education commissioned the Education Technology and Resources Development Center of the Ministry of Education (Central Audio-visual Education Center) to organize the development and release of the Basic Catalogue of Experimental Teaching in Primary and Secondary Schools (2023 Edition) (hereinafter referred to as the Basic Catalogue).

　　The development of the Basic Catalogue is based on the current curriculum standards, with reference to the teaching equipment allocation standards and teaching materials of various disciplines, and sorts out the basic experiments and practical activities that should be carried out to construct the core concepts, core laws, core experimental literacy and skills of disciplines under the new curriculum concept, including primary school mathematics, science, information technology, junior high school mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, geography, information technology, There are more than 900 experiments and practical activities in 16 subjects of high school mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, geography, information technology and general technology, covering a variety of practical activities such as observation, measurement, inquiry, simulation, design, programming, production, planting, breeding, visiting, investigation, mapping and experiment.

　　Based on the current situation, development needs and typical problems of experimental teaching in primary and secondary schools, the Basic Catalogue takes into account the practical needs of meeting regional differences, the integration of learning segments, the characteristics of disciplines and the diversification of teaching, and strives to highlight the basic, typical, systematic and educational nature. From a basic point of view, the Basic Catalogue takes the theme of curriculum standards as a clue, sorts out the basic experiments and practical contents that should be carried out in various disciplines, and defines the experimental activities that should be started and started, so as to ensure that students can fully experience the practical learning experience of exploring nature, acquiring scientific knowledge, cultivating scientific thinking and solving scientific and engineering problems. Typically, the Basic Catalogue fully considers the characteristics of disciplines and practice types. Based on the standardized scientific research paradigm, engineering technology design and implementation process, it refines the typical scientific inquiry and practice activities of natural sciences and the general processes and methods of practical teaching of technical disciplines, and promotes the cultivation of basic experimental skills such as individual skills and skills to the cultivation of high-level practical literacy such as model construction, reasoning, analysis and synthesis, innovative thinking, and promotes the activity and curriculum of practical teaching, and strives to cultivate students’ complex problem solving. From a systematic point of view, the Basic Catalogue follows the demand of advanced training of practical ability, systematically selects and refines suitable practical activities in each study section, reduces repeated and fragmented experimental projects between study sections and disciplines, promotes the integrated development of practice between disciplines and study sections, and provides effective methods and approaches for interdisciplinary learning and project-based learning. From the perspective of educating people, the Basic Catalogue insists on five educations, with moral education first.Fully adopt the forms of investigation and study, exhibition and exchange, map drawing, poster making, emergency drills, simulated first aid and other activities, and integrate major educational themes such as China’s advanced science and technology culture, national security, economic strategy, life safety and health into the practical teaching of science and technology, so as to lay a solid literacy foundation for cultivating students into socialist builders and successors with ideals, skills and responsibilities.

　　Making good use of the Basic Catalogue is of great significance to the implementation of the "double reduction", the addition of science education and the cultivation of compound innovative talents. We should make a good experimental teaching plan according to the Basic Catalogue, take the basic experimental course as an important teaching content, start experimental courses and practical activities well, pay attention to deepening the reform of teaching methods according to the Basic Catalogue, incorporate experimental and inquiry practical teaching as an important part of the science and technology curriculum system into the basic norms of subject teaching, carefully design practical teaching contents such as experiments according to the teaching requirements of different classes, and strengthen learning by doing, using and creating middle schools, reflecting practicality and innovation. Based on the experimental contents of the Basic Catalogue, we should strengthen the construction of laboratories in primary and secondary schools, support the exploration and construction of diverse practical spaces such as functional classrooms, comprehensive laboratories, innovative laboratories and educational maker spaces, do a good job in the allocation of teaching equipment in various disciplines, and ensure the experimental teaching conditions. It is necessary to refer to the Basic Catalogue to strengthen the evaluation and investigation of experimental teaching, incorporate the opening of experimental courses in schools into teaching visual guidance and daily supervision, carry out monitoring of the compliance rate and utilization rate of teaching equipment, and continuously improve the experimental ability and practical innovation ability of teachers and students.
