The Cultivation of Viewing Skills in Junior High School English Teaching for Enhancing Thinking Quality

依据《义务教育英语课程标准(2022年版)》中“看”的技能要求，教师应融合学生“看”的技能培养与思维品质提升。本文基于“看”的微技能对思维品质的促进作用，结合2024年秋季新版初中教材，提出三项培养建议：激发读图意识、设计对标微技能的教学活动以及通过“看”促进“说”与“写”。旨在强化学生在观察、辨析、归纳、判断及创新等方面的思维品质，培养其在真实的生活情景中独立思考与解决问题的能力。According to the requirements for “viewing” skills in the Curriculum Standards for English in Compulsory Education (2022 Edition), teachers are expected to integrate the cultivation of students’ viewing skills with the enhancement of their thinking quality. Based on the facilitative role of the micro-skills of viewing in promoting thinking quality, this paper, in conjunction with the 2024 edition of junior high school textbooks, proposes three cultivation strategies: stimulating visual awareness, designing teaching activities aligned with specific micro-skills, and promoting speaking and writing through viewing. The aim is to strengthen students’ thinking qualities in areas such as observation, analysis, induction, judgment, and innovation, and to cultivate their ability to think independently and solve problems in real-life contexts.
