Mathematics education reform on economic exploration

Abstract: This article from the teaching content, teaching methods of reform, the reform of teaching methods, and test methods discussed several aspects of the reform of Mathematics teaching reform of Economic ideas. The main idea is: the Economic Mathematics teaching should be to "use throughout the teaching of Mathematics has always been. "to apply Shijian main line, enhance knowledge point of understanding, application and supplement, training students to develop Mathematical models to solve practical problems.

Keywords: economy, Mathematics, Education reform

Many people know that math is important, but do not know where it is important only to know all kinds of examinations have math test, it seems that this is examination-oriented Education is synonymous with what exactly the role of science in Mathematics, what Mathematics Teaching should be in How to develop the socialist market Economic development of application-oriented, innovative talents? has been our Education reform issues explored in this paper from the vocational Economic Mathematics Teaching content, teaching methods, teaching methods, and several test methods aspects of reform are discussed. The main idea is to "use mathematics throughout the entire economy Mathematics Teaching." to apply in practice the main line, to the knowledge point of understanding, application and supplement, training students to develop Mathematical models to solve practical problems.

First, the teaching philosophy of "application" as the goal throughout the entire process of teaching
Mathematics and the general economy than higher mathematics has its own peculiarities, should enable students to understand the relationship between the economy and mathematics, in Economics, mathematical analysis to Economic analysis services, and not vice versa, should adhere to the "mathematics of the body, the economy for use "principle, therefore, in teaching, the economy and into the math, each chapter beginning with the current economic life are the hot issues to stimulate students interest in learning about mathematical knowledge into the contents of each section, as much as possible to the economic for example, the combination of mathematics and the economy gradually, and finally, on what they have learned about mathematics, presented at the beginning of each chapter analysis of the economic issues, for example: about function, the production of commodities affected by what, and what the phone bill, etc. introduce the concept of functions, finished function concept, the mathematical expression given to the above-mentioned functional relation, and finally given the common economic analysis function (cost function, revenue function, profit function, demand function, etc. about derivative and differential, ask students, in everyday life seen a product suddenly lower prices and increased profits phenomenon? When students cited many examples of interest in learning are stimulated, the introduction of changes in rates, that is to be introduced derivative finished this chapter, then why the commodity price but given the answer to increased profits, is "flexible." In other words, the appropriate price would demand a big increase, thereby increasing revenue. This teaching, both to help students understand the mathematical principles and methods, but also help students understand their application in economic management.

Second, the teaching content "necessary and sufficient" for the principle
Economic math is important vocational Economics and Management tools based courses and classes, through the calculus, linear algebra, linear programming and other content learning, students initially have the ability to solve problems of economic management and learning for the future economic management courses and engage in economic management to lay the necessary foundations of mathematics. how limited hours to complete so much the content of teaching? it to be tightly bound to professional training objectives, according to the "necessary and sufficient" mathematical principles of economic trade-offs The content of teaching content additions and deletions, the first is to remove some of the abstract theory of strong, pure language of mathematics concepts and proof of the theorem, replace them with qualitative and simple descriptive definition and geometric interpretation, for example, the function concept of limit, for vocational students, there is a perceptual knowledge, establish a limit of concepts, ideas will be enough. focuses on the concept of the limit function, then the whole target function - the limit of the series only as the limit of a function special case, Jane and out of. This treatment, highlights the limits of the function concept than the previous series first introduced the concept of limits, nature, and then introduce the function limit, save a lot of time, teaching was also very effective in teaching, focusing on the power function, exponential function, linear function, matrix algebra, linear equations and so on, remove the bump curve, determined by the parametric equation of the derivative function, the volume of rotation, so part of the determinant , and spend time with their future study and work every day and access to simple interest, compound interest, yield, revenue, costs, minimum investment, maximum profit, flexible functions and so on, for them, more practical, more value, so that will help us train people to work in the future competent job.

Third, actively carry out the reform of teaching methods
(A reform of teaching methods, teaching students to become the protagonist, and we actively implement the action-oriented teaching ideas, a change in the traditional mode of teaching students to listen to teachers talk about teaching methods for students to participate in classroom teaching, teachers, and for a content knowledge points, action-oriented and flexible use of a variety of interactive teaching methods, in order to achieve the learning from the "to me" to "I want to study" the direction of change in this course can be summarized in the application form and a variety of interactive teaching methods, such as brainstorming, lectures method, classroom discussion method, simulations, role-drill method etc. These methods can not only enhance teaching quality and effectiveness, and can greatly stimulate students to learn the course and enthusiasm.

(B to achieve the specific practice of classroom teaching and interaction in this course in the teaching process, to take the curricular and extracurricular practice practice, practice and curriculum practice phase combination of practical teaching methods, teachers for teaching the content, in addition to the necessary classroom practice training, but also actively organize students to conduct social research, Mathematical modeling, as students apply the knowledge to analyze and solve practical problems.

(Three courses has always been the case throughout the teaching of this course content is designed in a number of carefully selected cases, theory with practice, to apply their knowledge through case analysis and explanation, so that students from simply rote application of knowledge into skills, knowledge growth .

Fourth, teaching methods and evaluation tools to achieve the update
Teachers in teaching full use of modern Educational technology, development of production, the use of multimedia courseware and curriculum network resources to enhance teaching intuitive, in order to facilitate students' understanding and knowledge to digest.

Examination is teaching baton, for guiding students to correct learning attitude, learning to grasp the key play has a vital role. The main task of higher vocational Education is to train highly skilled personnel, these personnel, both mental and physical energy, but also to hands-on, so must the concept of vocational education personnel to assess the quality of students, multi-faceted, multi-angle comprehensive evaluation of student performance. To this end we conducted the examination reforms, changing the roll of the practice setting results in the evaluation of students on the one ways and means to improve the flexibility of a comprehensive evaluation would be subject to daily evaluation of development activities, economic mathematics essay, economic math homework, group activities, self-evaluation and mutual evaluation, interviews, questions, observations and other everyday situations content, the second is "unified" approach to improve the evaluation can be referential. to re-test paper the way of a final exam, marking a unified, uniform rate.

In this regard, we have done the collection of questions assessing the ability of the work, but still in the probing, some of the principles of opinion can be summarized as follows:
Emphasis on infrastructure and focus. Basic knowledge to grasp the situation is still an indispensable element in the examination.

Focus on thinking skills fade. Involuted techniques to dilute the economic significance of mathematics in a general mathematical ideas and methods should be the focus of the examination.

Emphasis on the application, examine the ability of students to focus on testing the potential ability to make high-quality, ability, and potential students in the exam dominant.

Forms, flexible. You can try "open" questions, test creative thinking ability, you can also try a combination of written and oral.

Fifth, actively carry out the second classroom activities
Second classroom activities, personality development and emphasis on student ability. Mathematical modeling activities is a directly applied to the mathematical knowledge to solve practical problems of the best fast, effective way to improve students' ability to analyze and solve problems flexibly the use of mathematical knowledge, problem solving skills, stimulate interest in learning, active access to information, enhance the sense of collaboration, the best means to foster innovation, so after the completion of calculus, given the professional and economic issues related to modeling training: product profitability problems, continuous compounding the problem, the marginal function for the most optimization problems, the optimal volume issues in modeling the process of training, students will take a serious book, information search, the teachers often ask each other to explore, so that the students will have greatly improved the overall quality of course, due to poor foundation vocational students, modeling good job not completed, but this requires teachers to constantly in the Teaching of mathematical thinking can solve many economic problems in expand the students knowledge.

At present our school the teaching of mathematics economy has achieved good results, the students learn the economic interest in mathematics increased, earnest in study, diligent in thinking more and more students. In short, we are closely linked to training objectives, the basic theory, organic integration of Mathematical modeling, mathematical theory to be based on the rich background of practical problems to mathematical modeling as a breakthrough, achieved good results through the above teaching reform so that we have realized that students potential is unlimited, the key is how to train teachers and mining, to showcase their talent and development of space, so we have to establish innovative education and teaching philosophy, to believe that others can do, we can do it and will do better.
