Second, the cultivation of historical thinking ability needs to focus on creating beneficial learning situations. American educator Ringer pointed out that in teaching, educational psychology focuses on the understanding development of three focus areas, namely learners, learning processes and learning situations, which overlap and are interrelated. The purpose of creating historical learning situation is to make students feel history consciously and actively in the atmosphere of learning and inquiry, thus stimulating students' desire to understand and explore historical issues.
Third, to cultivate the ability of historical thinking, students should understand the basic historical theory. In daily teaching, students must be made clear about the dialectical relationship between productive forces and production relations, economic base and superstructure, ethnic contradictions and class contradictions, patriotism and internationalism, individuality and * * *, principles and strategies, necessity and chance. The scale of evaluating historical figures and events, the role of figures and heroes, and the law of historical development. Teachers should give examples, so that students can give similar examples to consolidate the basic theory.
Fourth, guide students to pay attention to current social hot issues and improve their ability to integrate theory with practice and respond to emergencies. Such as the current reform and opening up, Sino-Japanese relations, the reunification of Taiwan Province Province, the Iraqi conflict, the development of multi-polarization, ethnic issues and the development of science, technology and culture. Pay attention to these questions at ordinary times, and you can answer related questions smoothly in the exam.
