Abstract: In middle school mathematics, some teaching contents embody a teaching idea of "combination of numbers and graphs", especially in the geometry part of middle school mathematics. Therefore, in the actual process of teaching, teachers should combine numbers and graphs to guide students to learn and explore some practical mathematical problems with intuitive and vivid graphics. Graph theory is a branch of discrete mathematics, which takes graph as its research object. A graph in graph theory is a graph composed of some vertices and edges connecting two vertices. This graph is usually used to describe a specific relationship between certain things. In a graph, a vertex represents a thing, and edges are used to represent specific relationships between connected two vertices. In the history of graph theory, the emergence of graph theory has solved many mathematical problems, especially some seemingly simple problems that are difficult to solve with traditional mathematical methods. The method of graph theory is widely used in middle school mathematics, especially in middle school mathematics competitions. This paper discusses some applications of graph theory in middle school mathematics. We first introduces graph theory through two specific problems in life, and then explores some applications of Ramsey number problem, bipartite graph and matching problem of graph theory in middle school mathematics teaching.Abstract: In middle school mathematics, some teaching contents embody a teaching idea of "combination of numbers and graphs", especially in the geometry part of middle school mathematics.

Abstract: In-service teachers need continuous learning and training, but their education and teaching tasks are very heavy. Can teachers not be separated from the classroom and work to learn, to improve the efficiency of both work and learning, so as to achieve a "win-win" situation? The concept of learning organization and knowledge management emphasizes the integration of work and learning, which provides the possibility for this kind of learning. For teachers, if they want to combine work and learning, action research is a good intermediary. Studying in work, learning in studying, thus teachers can achieve professional development. Organizational learning is the most fundamental feature of a learning organization. So it is suggested to apply cooperative action research among teachers. Practice is the carrier of action research and the source of the generation and development of teachers' personal education knowledge. It is suggested to change the formula for teacher growth: experience + reflection + peer mutual assistance = growth. Or it can be said as: teacher's professional growth = practice + action research + organizational learning. Cooperative research based on practice is an ideal model for in-service teacher training based on teachers' personal education knowledge from the perspective of knowledge management. School-based research is one of the important forms of this training model.Abstract: In-service teachers need continuous learning and training, but their education and teaching tasks are very heavy.

Abstract: Recent research on learner beliefs has started to highlight their dynamic and variable nature. By investigating the relationship between learner’s language learning beliefs and language proficiency in SA context, the current study tries to investigate how the changes of learner beliefs impact on language learning proficiency. The data of the study were collected from thirty Chinese students attending a pre-sessional language course in ELTC at the University of Sheffield. Combining data drawn from the questionnaires, semi-structured interviews and the IELTS scores, the current study seeks to answer three research questions: 1) Do learners’ beliefs change in SA context? If so, in what ways? 2) Does learners’ language proficiency change in SA context? If so, how? 3) What is the relationship between learners’ English proficiency and their beliefs about language learning? The results indicate that learners show changes in their language learning beliefs after a period of language learning in SA context. Participants report their beliefs in learner autonomy and self-confidence have significantly strengthened during SA sojourn. Also, there are statistically significant gains in proficiency, as measured by the IELTS scores. In the current study, no statistically significant relationships seem to exist between the overall changes in beliefs and gains or losses in proficiency. However, moderate correlation between beliefs about analytic learning and the IELTS score has been observed. The current study also acknowledges that understanding of one’s own beliefs can influence learners’ daily learning behavior and their learning results.Abstract: Recent research on learner beliefs has started to highlight their dynamic and variable nature.

Abstract: At this stage, China has implemented a new round of educational reform. After a period of practice, the development of China's education has made considerable progress. However, there are still some problems. It is difficult to effectively communicate and coordinate the development between teachers, students and students, which affects the promotion of quality education. In particular, primary education is a key shaping period in school education, which is related to children's quality and quality cultivation. Under the policy of double reduction, the key to carry out quality education is to find out the educational concept and mode of transformation from examination oriented education to quality education. The symbiotic education theory attaches great importance to giving play to the advantages and enthusiasm of students and teachers. Both parties participate in class management and form a good symbiotic circle by exploring appropriate symbiotic points. In order to promote and realize quality education, the author, based on teaching practice, integrates the symbiosis theory into class management, attaches importance to cultivating and giving play to students' individual advantages, actively participates in class collective management, and achieves common progress through assistance, thus forming a class collective with distinctive class culture and strong cohesion, and realizing a new model for the common development of individuals and collectives. Through the cultivation of symbiotic education mode, the cohesion of the author's class has been significantly enhanced, teachers, students and students can develop synchronously and harmoniously, and a good class ecology has been built. This paper can provide some reference for the primary school head teacher to carry out class management.Abstract: At this stage, China has implemented a new round of educational reform.

Abstract: Manganese is an important metal element and is widely used in various fields such as industry and medicine. However, there is a lack of systematic introduction of manganese and its compounds in secondary school textbooks The purpose of the experiment is to prepare several unconventional valence compounds of manganese elements, to clarify the intrinsic connection between the oxidation states of manganese, and to help students recognize the various oxidation states of manganese. In this study, three sets of experiments on the interconversion of different valence states of manganese elements were designed, involving the knowledge of redox reactions, reversible reactions and coordination compounds, and the products were analyzed by UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The results showed that the unstable blue potassium manganate (V) was prepared from potassium manganate (VI) and manganese dioxide under strong alkaline conditions. Potassium permanganate and concentrated sulfuric acid under different conditions produced relatively stable red manganese trioxide and trivalent manganese ions, respectively, with rich color changes. This can provide experimental evidence for students to feel the transformation process of various oxidation states of manganese element, and also can effectively stimulate students' interest in learning.Abstract: Manganese is an important metal element and is widely used in various fields such as industry and medicine.
