Emile 1 Rousseau's Emile, written in 1757, is a masterpiece about educational theory. This book mainly describes the physiological and psychological characteristics, growth process and educational methods of the fictional aristocratic son Emil from birth to adulthood, which is vivid and is a theoretical masterpiece of modern educational art.
Rousseau put forward a viewpoint in Emile: children should develop naturally according to their own nature, and I agree with him.
Rousseau believes that education follows nature and conforms to children's nature, and should not interfere with children and impose adult thinking on them. Young parents feel the increasingly fierce competition in society at this moment, fearing that their children will lose at the starting line and even be eliminated by society in the future. Therefore, they are eager for their children's success. They accompany their children to shuttle between different types of instrumental music, art, dance and English, and arbitrarily occupy their children's play time without considering their thoughts. Children should be allowed to grow freely. Any social interference with children will make them feel unfree, unequal and even sinful. Any way of education that goes against nature will lead to the abnormal development of children and have serious consequences. Children are not containers that can be shaped and filled at will, not whiteboards, but have their own fixed rules? The existence of nature? . In our educational life, we should educate children as living people. Any teaching that violates the law of students' physical and mental development is inhuman and cannot exist for a long time. ? Everything given by the creator of nature is good, but once it is in hand, it goes bad. ? Therefore, Rousseau strongly advocated that children should be kept away from society, return to nature, see and listen in the natural environment, and not understand the secular influence before their understanding is developed. Let them run freely and laugh heartily. Return to nature, let children adopt the aura of heaven and earth, collect the essence of the sun and the moon, and thus cultivate their spirituality and personality. Reflecting on our education, in the dead of night, I feel like I am training a machine to cope with exams.
As a teacher, I should clearly realize the importance of the concept of nature education, fully tap children's talents, make children's hearts close to nature, and let children grow up in free air.
Reading Experience of Emile 2 After reading this masterpiece, I was deeply impressed by the author's unique views, incisive exposition, delicate description and delicate writing. Numerous famous educational classics run through the book, which contains profound insights and unique educational thoughts, making people hide memories from time to time. The most amazing thing is that Rousseau's concept of children's education still radiates brilliant light, which makes people have to marvel at Rousseau's amazing sense of advance and lasting connotation.
Although Rousseau's Emile is a monograph on bourgeois education, Rousseau opposed the feudal education system by educating his imaginary educational object Emile, and expounded his bourgeois education thought, which still has reference significance for current preschool education.
First of all, as a kindergarten manager, I want to change my concept, enrich myself with knowledge, be good at extensive study and reading, regard nature education as an attitude and mode of thinking that broadens my horizons, be a wise man who likes learning and thinking, regard early childhood education as an education that is close to nature, and make kindergarten a paradise for children to grow up happily. Let nature and education blend naturally, and children are like young green saplings, full of vitality and thriving; Teachers are full of spring, vitality and hope. The harmony between man and nature fully embodies the educational concept of people-oriented and following the laws of nature. I firmly believe that as long as you act, you will gain something.
Secondly, we should respect children in daily education and teaching, actively create conditions, guide and encourage children to experience the beauty of nature. Make full use of the beautiful natural environment and rich community environment of Geely Kindergarten to create a humanistic environment for children, create a safe and warm atmosphere for children, exercise children's ability to live independently, cultivate children's spirit of overcoming difficulties, unity and mutual assistance, and establish good interpersonal relationships; The first site that really started life became the cradle of education that children yearned for. Here, children will always have beautiful and happy memories. Quality education? This wonderful flower blooms fresher and more brightly in Geely kindergarten!
Finally, mobilize parents and friends to fully understand that early childhood education should follow the natural law of children's growth through Geely Garden Newspaper, Class Newspaper, BBS, parents' school and Geely QQ Group. We should deeply understand and respect children, carry out education at different stages according to their physical and mental characteristics, and promote their all-round development. As Rousseau said: love children, help them play games, make them happy and cultivate their lovely instinct. Who among you has not always been attached to that childhood that is always smiling and quiet? Why not let naive children enjoy fleeting time and deprive them of extremely precious wealth that they will never spoil? The first few years of their lives, like those of your life, are gone forever. Why should those fleeting years be filled with sadness and pain? Let our homeland listen to the master's call hand in hand, understand the children's world, and let our children have a free childhood.
Rereading Emily made me suddenly enlightened.
The reading experience of emir 3. I first heard about Emile when I was in a normal school. I think "Emily" will be a book familiar to teachers' majors. I want to read this book in normal school, because in my impression? Emily. It is a person's name, and this book takes it as the title of the whole book. I think it will be a book through description, right? Emily. The growth process of a book. Personally, I like this temporary educational book very much, so I've always wanted to read it.
After I got this book, I didn't read it all at once. Because this book is divided into two volumes, nearly 900 pages, and my habit of reading slowly, I have been reading slowly. Recently, due to my leisure, I finally finished reading this book. After reading it, I found that this book is actually different from what I thought before. So-called? Emily. It's just an educational object imagined by Rousseau in order to expound his thoughts. It's not that what I thought was a monograph on narrative education, even if it involves? Emily. Many examples of Rousseau are naturally imaginary, not educational facts. At the same time, this book has another reason to read slowly. I summed up two reasons for the difficulty: one is that my level is not enough, so it is naturally difficult to digest Rousseau's thoughts in the process of reading, and the other is that the sentence expression is very different from ours because of translation.
Of course, my feelings can't hide that Emily is an epoch-making masterpiece. Some students once commented that after reading "Emile", the biggest feeling was to find that all the original educational ideas had been expounded in this book as early as17th century. I'm not sure whether all educational ideas can be found in this book, but I'm sure it contains extremely rich educational ideas. The idea of democratic education, for example, rose in China in the 1980s, and even we are still discussing and exploring it now, which is expounded in the book Emile. What we can imagine is that Rousseau in the17th century can put forward such an educational thought, which shows that this book is a good book that is ahead of the times and affects the times. The most mentioned in the book is natural education, but it can also be said that it has its own uniqueness.
The reading experience of emir 4. The theme of Emile is that education should follow the laws of nature and develop children's nature. This statement is really common and not fashionable at all. But what shocked me was that it was such a common truth. For today's colorful and endless educational fashion thoughts, such a humble theme needs to be discussed and demonstrated by Rousseau, a great educator, in the first and second volumes and his representative works. What makes me sad especially is that three centuries have passed from the18th century to the present 2 1 century, but people are still constantly lost in their viewpoints and practices of educating the next generation, and they are always confused by many unpredictable new educational ideas and go in the wrong direction. Compared with our present basic education, haven't we educators lost our way? Pick out some examples where we are far apart, with my peers? Tea tasting practice? .
First, real education lies not in oral training, but in practice; As soon as we begin to live, we begin to educate ourselves; Our education begins with our life. In just three sentences, as long as we are honest with each other, we will find that our practices are sometimes far apart in reality. As teachers, we seem to be preaching more, or bossing around, or being bitter. The common mentality is to preach condescendingly with the dignity of the teacher. The common feature is that we listen and understand not as equal people, but as experienced people? Wise advice is always correct, but it is always itchy. Children are rational? Have you confirmed it? Teachers are the correct representatives, but they can't stop being sad, miserable or escaping emotionally. Education is closely related to children's lives, and education is integrated with students' life growth. From this perspective, we have narrowed the field of education. Our teacher pays more attention to what knowledge students have learned in class, what ability they have exercised, whether students have learned it or not, and how much their ability has developed. Although the new curriculum constantly emphasizes paying attention to the process and methods and cultivating emotional attitudes and values, there is little soil in the actual educational practice, or only sowing and rarely cultivating. Of course, I also cry foul for our teacher. It seems that our responsibilities are getting heavier and heavier, and the flavor of politicization, task and administration is getting stronger and stronger, but we have less and less time. Our words and deeds and thoughts, as if on the track of a train, will always move forward like companions, but they will never cross and merge.
Second: go with nature and follow the path she drew for you. She often exercises her children. She honed her temperament with various tests; She let them know what trouble and pain are from an early age. How well it is said, as long as it is life, from birth, it will naturally use all kinds of hardships to exercise the will, sharpen the temperament and keep fit. But we smart humans seem to be too smart, and always want to use human power to stop the power of nature. Although we embrace the reasons of love, such as picking up a child immediately after falling, we deeply blame the fault on the ground; For example, when a child fails, we always comfort him anxiously and even comfort him with gifts? There are many examples from which we always get temporary warmth, but from a macro and long-term point of view, it is always the smart people themselves who learn the lesson. Therefore, all parents and teachers need to let go of the form of care and love. When children encounter pain and troubles in natural life, don't think that care is love, sometimes? Watching? , even? Look on coldly? It is true love, because only in this way can children understand the truth of nature, learn to obey the will of nature and become a person who obeys the laws of nature.
Reading experience of "Emily" 5. The book "Emily" has been on the shelf for a long time, but it is too difficult to read, so it has been kept on the high ground. After entering the second day of junior high school, I began to work as a class teacher, and I also read some books on the management of class teachers. I also want to know more about children, so I opened "Emily" with a lot of traditional Chinese characters in two volumes. Although reading is a little difficult, I have a general understanding of this book, from which I know Rousseau's educational thought more or less. Below I want to briefly talk about some of my experiences.
Emile is Rousseau's monograph on bourgeois education. By educating his supposed educational object, Emile, he opposed the feudal education system and expounded his bourgeois education thought. He advocates adapting children to natural development? Nature education? . The so-called nature education is to follow the eternal laws of nature and let people develop physically and mentally freely. Therefore, he believes that the means of this kind of education is life and practice, so that children can obtain the knowledge they need from their personal experience of life and practice and through sensory feelings. At this point, I think we can learn from our teaching. In composition teaching, we always emphasize writing true feelings. In fact, only through children's personal feelings can we have a more and more real understanding of things, and what we write will be true.
Rousseau asked Emile to learn games, planting and carpentry. What children at this stage need is the happiness brought by sensory experience, and games are the best means to achieve this happiness. Lu Xun, a great writer in China, said that games are the most legitimate behavior of children, which is consistent with Rousseau's view. Rousseau also believes that a child should keep a lively character through games.
But, look at our current family education, many parents? Expect your son to succeed and your daughter to succeed? My desire is too urgent. I want children to learn more knowledge than others in as little time as possible, which takes up most of their game time. There is a sketch satirizing that I want my child to be born with a doctor's hat? . Indeed, we can't deny our parents' good intentions, but we don't realize how thankless it is. Because letting a child do something he doesn't want or need to do won't get the expected effect at all, not only will the investment be wasted, but the child will hate receiving education from now on, and the rebellious psychology will become more and more serious; Maybe the children are willing to accept it, then we can only cast a sympathetic eye, because it will be a group of poor people who can't enjoy the happiest and most carefree life.
