How to educate middle school students independently and promote their self-growth?
First, cultivate students' awareness of autonomous learning

Quality education is student-centered education, and students are the masters of learning. Therefore, in the process of implementing quality education, we should pay attention to cultivating students' autonomous learning consciousness, and urge students to explore and think independently in teaching activities to achieve the best teaching effect.

(A) to stimulate interest in learning

Tolstoy said: "Successful teaching needs not coercion, but arousing students' interest. "Interest is the best teacher to learn. Psychological research shows that the level of interest in learning will have a great impact on the learning effect. When a student has a strong interest in learning and is in high spirits, he will learn relevant knowledge deeply and enthusiastically, dabble in relevant knowledge extensively, and show his tenacious spirit of research when encountering difficulties. Otherwise, he only grasps the knowledge he has learned superficially and formally, and often loses confidence when encountering difficulties and cannot persist in learning. The so-called "strong twisted melon is not sweet" is also true. Therefore, in order to promote students' active learning, we must stimulate and cultivate students' interest in learning.

When the author talks about the chapter of multimedia tool software "POWERPOINT", he first shows students various styles of slide works with multimedia courseware. The exquisite text design, vivid images and pleasant sounds in the works deeply attract students, stimulate their interest in learning and desire for creation, make them want to design slides, and promote the formation of students' autonomous learning consciousness.

(B) to establish a harmonious relationship between teachers and students

Teaching practice shows that students love a teacher and the courses he teaches, and he will actively explore the knowledge of this subject. This also promotes the formation of students' autonomous learning consciousness. It is pointed out in the famous educational book "Xue Ji" that "kissing his teacher and believing in his way" is the truth. Therefore, teachers should strive to turn the cold educational theory into vivid teaching practice, and truly love, respect, accept and satisfy students.

Second, actively guide students to learn independently

Modern educational theory advocates student-centered and emphasizes students' initiative in learning. The role of teachers is to organize, guide, help and promote students' learning, give full play to students' initiative, enthusiasm and creativity, so that students can learn most effectively and achieve the best teaching effect. Even if students have the awareness of autonomous learning, teachers should adopt flexible and diverse teaching methods according to students' actual interests and abilities, so that students' awareness of autonomous learning can be transformed into students' practical activities.

(A) bold exploration, seeking new knowledge

Information technology is an exploratory subject, which pays attention to students' hands-on practice. Inquiry learning is based on "questions", and questions are the carrier of students' inquiry learning. Teachers can stimulate students' desire to explore new knowledge through the presentation of "questions", and in the process of guiding students to explore, students actively generate learning needs. Therefore, proper "questioning" is an important means of information technology teaching, which can not only consolidate knowledge and feed back teaching information in time, but also stimulate students to actively participate in teaching activities and become masters of learning.

Teachers should actively create problem situations, "generously" provide raw materials for thinking processing, review old knowledge, observe phenomena, and arrange exercises. And put forward problems that can inspire students' thinking, give full play to students' subjective initiative, and enable students to find and solve problems themselves.

For example, in the teaching of "FOR—NEXT loop statement", the author first read a simple program segment for students:

S=0

For step 2 of I= 1 to 10

S=S+I

Print s

Next, I

First of all, review the old knowledge and ask: What is the running result of the program?

Then, modify the above program segment, as shown below:

S= 1

For step 2 of I=2 to 9

S=S+I

Print s

Next, I

Then ask the question: What is the running result of the program? Are they the same? Organize students to discuss and practice on the computer. The process of students finding and solving problems is a process of bold exploration and seeking new knowledge, and it is also a process of students' autonomous learning.

(2) Dare to question and be willing to think.

Create a democratic, relaxed and harmonious teaching atmosphere in teaching, and encourage students to question boldly and be willing to think. Many educators advocate a good learning atmosphere in teaching. Babanski pointed out: "Whether a teacher is good at creating a good spiritual and psychological atmosphere in class plays an important role." Contemporary educator Shatanov even stressed: "It is the primary responsibility of every teacher to create an atmosphere of universal mutual respect, spiritual equality and psychological comfort in the classroom." It can be seen that a good teaching atmosphere is very important for the development of teaching activities. The information technology classroom should create this kind of atmosphere, so that students can be free and unrestrained in their study. Only in this way can there be a collision of thinking and a spark of thinking.

Psychology tells us: "If there is doubt, there is thought; if there is no doubt, there is no thought." Teachers should encourage students to be brave in questioning, not easily disagree with others' views, and boldly express their unique opinions. Teachers should leave space for students to think, explore and develop themselves in teaching, and be good at taking the contradiction between teaching content itself and students' existing knowledge and experience as a breakthrough to inspire students to explore.

"Why" makes students' thinking active, makes them diligent and willing to think, and thus puts themselves into learning more actively and independently.

For example, in the teaching of "FOR—NEXT cycle sentence", the author arranges students to complete an exercise in the textbook. Title requirements: After reading the following program fragments, students analyze the results of the program operation.

S=0

For I= 10 to step 4 -3.

S=S+I

Next, I

PRINT " S =S

Many students analyze the "FOR—NEXT loop statement execution process" diagram in the textbook and quickly write the "result" of the program operation.

I am in no hurry to answer, let the students verify on the computer, and the "result" obtained by running the program on the computer is inconsistent with the "result" analyzed by the students. At this time, I encourage students to think positively and question boldly. After students' independent inquiry and group discussion, two reasons for the inconsistency of "results" were found. The diagram of "For-Next loop statement execution process" in the original textbook is only designed for loop statements with positive step value. When the step value in the "For-Next loop statement" is negative, this figure is no longer applicable, but in this program segment, the step value is negative (-3).

(C) bold innovation, independent interaction

Someone once said: "Creativity is slowly disappearing in the requirement of consistency". In class, teachers should encourage students to study creatively. For example, when teaching students to use POWERPOINT software to make slides, most of the presentations made by students are similar at first, with more imitation and less innovation, and there is little communication and discussion between them during the production process. The author tries his best to create conditions, prepare the resources needed in teaching and put them on the internet for students to share. Students can also find relevant information on the Internet to complete their studies according to their own learning needs. In addition, the author also recommended some websites for students. A large number of resources from the internet, teachers and classmates have greatly enriched students' classrooms and broadened their horizons.

In addition, teachers should encourage students to be bold and innovative, do not follow the practice of teachers and classmates, and emphasize that their works should be different. For example, in order to guide students to design slides with their own characteristics, the author carefully observes the innovative highlights in students' works, shows them to students through multimedia teaching networks, organizes students' analysis and discussion, and stimulates students' creative enthusiasm. At the same time, students are encouraged to interact independently, and students of different levels can organize themselves into groups and complete their works in groups. Students have their own strengths and learn from each other through mutual communication, observation and demonstration in independent interaction. Students choose their own learning resources and learning methods, innovate boldly and interact independently, which is also the process of students' independent learning.

(d) Dare to let go and learn independently.

Teachers boldly let go in teaching, encourage students to learn independently, let students really take the initiative in learning and become the masters of learning, so that students can actively and independently participate in learning and give full play to their subjectivity. First of all, at the beginning of each semester, the author will tell students about the teaching arrangement of this semester, including the plan, progress, class hours, etc., so that students can know fairly well. Some students with better knowledge can put forward learning requirements to the teacher in advance according to their respective levels and hobbies on the premise of completing the teaching content at the corresponding stage. The author encourages students to study independently and implement individual counseling. When it comes to preliminary programming, some high-level students have a strong interest in programming and are not satisfied with the content of classroom teaching. For those students who have spare capacity for these studies, the author encourages them to design and write programs to solve practical problems according to their own learning contents and interests and combined with real life. Independent self-study does not mean letting yourself go. When students encounter problems, teachers should discuss with them, inspire their thinking and guide them to find solutions.

Third, self-motivation and self-evaluation.

Teachers should attach importance to the incentive function of academic performance and make full use of the feedback function of academic performance. Teachers should put forward different requirements for students with objective differences in teaching, encourage students of different levels to succeed in their studies, and let students experience the joy of success. Students with learning difficulties, in particular, have poor foundation, slow progress and strong sense of inferiority. Teachers should try their best to explore their bright spots, help them build up their self-confidence and let them feel the joy of success all the time. A sense of accomplishment is an incentive mechanism for students' autonomous learning. Give students a successful experience, strengthen and motivate students to study actively, and students will continue to pursue this experience in autonomous learning. When it comes to "FRONTPAGE" software, I will praise and encourage students in time whenever I receive their personal web works. Academic achievements have been affirmed, students' confidence has been greatly enhanced, and the motivation to participate in learning independently has also been enhanced.

In the process of autonomous learning, students know best what kind of learning can best meet their own needs, what they want to know most, and what they are most confused about. Therefore, teachers should attach importance to students' self-evaluation, guide students to gradually understand whether the process of "learning" is reasonable and effective, whether the methods used in learning are appropriate, conduct timely feedback and regulation, and constantly improve learning methods.

In short, in the process of implementing quality education, we should pay attention to cultivating students' autonomous learning ability, and urge students to explore and think independently in teaching activities to achieve the best teaching effect.
