Focusing on Classroom Effectiveness and Jointly Exploring Middle School Entrance Examination Preparation

In order to implement the requirements of "three synchronizations and three sharings," promote mutual learning and communication among physics teachers in the region, and assist in improving the quality of physics teaching and optimizing strategies for the middle school entrance examination (Zhongkao) preparation, on March 27, Longmen Middle School in Nanchong, Sichuan Province, jointly held a teaching and research activity themed "Focusing on Classroom Effectiveness and Jointly Exploring Middle School Entrance Examination Preparation" with the Zhang Tu Master Teacher Studio of Nanchong City and the Wen Guochun Master Teacher Studio of Xichong County. The school's Executive Principal Zhang Limei attended the event and spoke.

Diverse Teaching Methods Spark Intellectual Collisions and Classroom Practice Highlights Ingenuity

During the diverse teaching methods display session, Tan Shuan, a member of the Zhang Tu Master Teacher Studio, presented a lively and efficient demonstration class on the topic of "Liquid Pressure." Teacher Tan combined experimental demonstrations with real-life examples to guide students in exploring the patterns of liquid pressure, creating an active classroom atmosphere with high student participation.

Teacher Tian Wen from Longmen Middle School also conducted a "diverse teaching methods" class on the same topic. He used problem-driven approaches and multimedia technology to visually present difficult knowledge points, showcasing a different teaching design concept and style. Both teachers, based on the new curriculum standards, employed diverse strategies to overcome key difficulties and provided valuable teaching references for the observing teachers.

After the demonstration classes, the school's Executive Principal Zhang Limei delivered a welcome speech. She warmly welcomed the teachers from the master teacher studios and other schools, highlighting the significance of studio-school and inter-school cooperation and exchange in promoting balanced regional education development. She emphasized that the school would use this joint teaching and research activity as an opportunity to learn from the wisdom of master teachers and implement practical actions. The school plans to deeply integrate cross-regional teaching and research experiences into its school-based reforms, promoting innovations in collective lesson planning and teacher professional development mechanisms, and helping the teacher team narrow the gap with master teachers. She expressed her hope for continued deepening of cooperation and exchanges with master teacher studios and other schools in the future to jointly promote teaching innovation and development.

Special Lectures Empower Examination Preparation and Interactive Discussions Promote Joint Growth

During the lecture session, Teacher Xie Xinghui from Nanchong High School gave a special lecture titled "A Good Question and a Set of Good Questions - Methods for Preparing for the 2025 Middle School Entrance Examination in Physics." Drawing on years of experience in middle school entrance examination question setting and preparation, Teacher Xie systematically elaborated on scientific preparation strategies from dimensions such as "question selection criteria," "tiered training," and "penetration of core subject literacy." He proposed the preparation philosophy of "using questions to promote thinking and guide learning," providing practical guidance for the participating teachers.

In the class evaluation and discussion session, Teachers Zhang Tu, Wen Guochun, and Qin Xin provided in-depth comments on the demonstration classes given by Teachers Tan Shuan and Tian Wen. They fully affirmed the innovative design and classroom effectiveness of the two classes and offered suggestions for optimization, focusing on in-depth exploration of experimental inquiries and strategies for guiding student independent learning.

At the end of the event, Teacher Zhang Tu summarized the joint teaching and research activity. He emphasized that teaching should be based on the actual situation of students, consolidate foundations through innovation, and share wisdom through collaboration. He called on regional teachers to strengthen linkages and jointly improve the quality of physics education.

This joint teaching and research activity, focusing on the classroom and using the middle school entrance examination as a starting point, broadened the teaching horizons of regional physics teachers and inspired new ideas for preparation through multidimensional exchanges and discussions. The participating teachers expressed that they would transform the outcomes of the activity into motivation for teaching practice, continuously optimize classroom design, and help students improve their subject literacy.
