This article presents findings from a pilot study that examined the effect of a school counselor-led intervention, using the “Skill-Builders” curriculum, on middle-school students’ attitudes toward mathematics learning. Results from the current study demonstrated that students who received the Skill-Builders curriculum had significantly higher posttest scores on a measure of attitudes toward mathematics learning, including self-confidence, value, enjoyment, and motivation. Females in the Skill-Builders group improved significantly more than their male classmates. Implications and directions for future research are discussed.

Using the "Middle School Student Mathematics Learning Non-intellectual Questionnaire," a total of 1,400 middle school students in 11 districts and counties of Tianjin were surveyed. According to the data, using the raw score normalization method and the formula “T = 50+10×Z”, the middle school student mathematics learning non-intellectual population and its sub-dimensions norm table were established the corresponding grade evaluation standard was determined. The results of applied research were analyzed for class and individual application cases, and corresponding suggestions were made based on the analysis results.

This study was examined the effect of health promotion literacy program on knowledge and health behaviors of Ten National Health Recommendations among middle school students. Classroom action research was implemented among grade 8 students at middle school students selected purposively. Two comparable schools were assigned to the online Health Promotion Literacy Program for 3 weeks. The instruments employed in the study consisted of Health Promotion Literacy Program, questionnaire on knowledge and health behaviors, and user satisfaction survey. It revealed there was a significant difference in the learning achievement of health literacy and health behaviors of each school those who were participated in Health Promotion Literacy Program who performed posttest better than pretest the programme (t1=24.26, P1=0.000, t2=26.33, P2=0.000). It revealed there was an insignificant difference in the learning achievement of health literacy and health behaviors of both affiliations that it is shown that students who come from different schools totally have similar knowledge, perceptions, and behaviors (t=1.22, P=0.848). The students who participated in health promotion literacy program had satisfaction at good level (x ̅=4.39). From the study, health literacy promotion program on health behaviors according to the National Health Recommendations can positively affects student learning outcomes.
