Art is a part of the education of beauty. Undeniably, it plays an important role in cultivating people's interest, cultivating people's sentiment and improving people's literacy and aesthetic ability. However, this effect is potential and easily overlooked, and its scope of action is extremely small. Although its form is practice, its essence is still inseparable from the category of learning for learning and teaching for teaching. Although there is art appreciation course in senior high school, most schools give up this course because of many courses, few class hours and great difficulty. Only some schools with professional characteristics make it colorful. One of the reasons for the lack of aesthetic education in ordinary high schools is the lack of understanding and real perception of the development of beauty. To truly appreciate their beauty and function, the key is "enlightenment", and this kind of "enlightenment" is difficult to reach its realm without certain aesthetic knowledge. That is to say, this kind of education is not just because someone's specialty won him any awards, or just knowing his role and not using him to regulate his usual words and deeds. The real purpose is to improve one's aesthetic taste, aesthetic accomplishment and aesthetic taste through this kind of education, so as to restrain one's behavior, so as to achieve the realm of civilized and polite words and deeds, decent clothes, noble and different tastes, pure and selfless mind.
So, how to carry out aesthetic education for senior high school students?
First, renew ideas and broaden knowledge.
As an art teacher in the new century, in order to consciously promote quality education in art education, we should first renew our ideas, seriously study the decisions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on deepening education reform and promoting quality education, especially change the weak situation of aesthetic education in schools as soon as possible and integrate aesthetic education into the whole process of school education. As the breakthrough of quality education, art education should fully realize the important role of aesthetic education in promoting quality education in an all-round way. Education without aesthetic education is incomplete education, especially art education, which should be recognized as an effective implementation way for students' all-round development. It is a means for students to adapt to the future society and cultivate self-confidence, autonomy, independence and creativity. It is an activity to develop students' personality and optimize students' behavior. It is an aesthetic carrier to experience life, express emotions and cultivate the soul; It is a skill course that faces life and the future, participates in the society and strives for survival.
Secondly, we should broaden our knowledge. Today is the information age with the rapid development of science and technology, and students' horizons are getting wider and wider. Teachers can't adapt to the needs of modern society if they lie in the knowledge of the past. Therefore, we should pay attention to the conscious exercise of basic skills, expand our knowledge, increase our knowledge, update our knowledge structure, and lay a solid knowledge foundation for quality education in art disciplines. At the same time, we should also extensively dabble in related knowledge and actively study pedagogy and psychology.
Two, based on reality, according to the psychological characteristics of students, and gradually improve the high school art education.
The high school stage is the stage where students' cultural vision expands rapidly and their thinking is the most acute. What are the psychological characteristics of senior high school students? Is brave, enterprising, dare to meet challenges, dare to show themselves, and have a strong thirst for knowledge. Therefore, when carrying out education, we must determine the contents and methods of education according to the characteristics of students, and theoretical teaching is only one aspect. More importantly, we should take into account students' strong thirst for knowledge and active characteristics, cultivate their aesthetic sentiments and ideals, as well as rich creativity, let them actively participate in practical activities, and improve their interest in high school art classes.
High school art education from scratch is a great progress, but how to make it more scientific and perfect requires the hard work of every high school art teacher. We have no experience to follow, and we need to accumulate experience through groping. Therefore, this provides us with another opportunity to display our talents. On the premise of following the syllabus, art teaching in senior high school should develop its own characteristics, formulate school-based teaching materials and enrich teaching methods and contents based on the reality of our school. Only in this way can teachers turn their attention from textbooks to students and create a brand-new teaching environment. Art class is not only appreciation class, but also sketch class, production class, calligraphy class, photography class, pottery class and so on. , will develop and innovate on the basis of undertaking junior high school art education. With the development of society and economy, students pay more and more attention to the improvement of their own ability and comprehensive quality, and the education of cultivating students' comprehensive quality will also be paid more and more attention. Therefore, high school art education can not escape, and its capacity must be increased in connotation and extension, so that high school art education can really play an important role in the modern education structure.
Third, deepen art teaching in senior high school and explore new ways of art teaching with modern thinking.
Mencius said: "There must be a law for everything, and then it can be achieved." In order to cultivate high-quality qualified talents who meet the future requirements, we must reform teaching methods, because teaching methods are the basic means to achieve educational goals and complete teaching tasks. Practice has proved that teaching methods have great influence on teaching quality and students' intellectual development. The core of high school art education is to reform teaching methods and deepen classroom teaching. Although high school art education has not been established for a long time, due to the inertia of traditional teaching methods and the fact that high school art classes mainly focus on theoretical teaching and analysis and appreciation of works, language teaching methods have become dominant. In this way, it is ok for students to listen to one class or two classes, but it is difficult for students to accept it after one semester and one school year. Its main drawback is that it separates the relationship between teaching and learning, and "even the best theory is gray". This one-way education ignores the role of students, and the educational effect is reduced by half or even half. Although some art teachers try their best to dig up teaching materials, including mobilizing students' enthusiasm and opening up educational space by various means and methods, it is difficult for teaching to make a qualitative leap because of short-term effects and ignoring the characteristics of the times.
The rise and fall of the national movement depends on education, which is the responsibility of the whole people. Education is a systematic project. Strengthening aesthetic education in schools is not only a matter for schools, but also requires the attention and support of all sectors of society. Only when all aspects cooperate with each other and all work promotes each other can students' beautiful thoughts and qualities be improved, so that they can have beautiful clothes, beautiful words and deeds, beautiful hearts and beautiful sentiments. So as to promote students' physical and mental development and promote quality education.
