Based on the reality, our school scientifically divides the training of backbone teachers into five-level platform models, which can significantly improve the enterprising spirit, pioneering ability, scientific research quality and professional quality of backbone teachers and give full play to their leading, guiding and demonstrating roles in education and teaching activities.
First, build a platform for teachers' morality-forge the professional quality of backbone teachers.
Teachers' morality is the soul of teachers, and noble personality is the core of the soul. As the backbone of school teachers, backbone teachers should not only have high IQ, but also have a sense of unity and cooperation, strong organizational discipline, and pay equal attention to IQ and EQ. Teachers who don't know how to communicate and cooperate, be kind to others, set an example, sacrifice gratitude, and learn for their own use, even if their teaching achievements are high, they are not backbone teachers, but can only become teaching experts in the eyes of others, and their value is limited to this. Backbone teachers are not only outstanding in teaching skills, but also pioneers and models of teachers' morality. Therefore, the school attaches great importance to the cultivation of teachers' morality in the cultivation of key teachers.
We put the concentric core value orientation in the first place in the construction of teachers' morality. In March of xx, we adopted the idea of running a school in the new period through the way of teachers' congress, and constructed a plan (Changchun No.87 Middle School "Eleventh? Five "development plans"), running a project (research on dynamic education teaching management mode of "independent development and humanistic specialty"), implementing a project (expansion project of teachers and students' humanistic quality) and implementing two strategies (teaching strategy and moral education strategy) as the carrier to carry out a series of school-based research activities.
To this end, the backbone teachers have been trained in professional quality, so that the backbone teachers can clearly understand their responsibilities and the roles they should play among all teachers. At the beginning of each semester, our school will conduct pre-job training for the new semester. At the exchange meeting, backbone teachers will take turns to give reports on teachers' morality. For example, at the beginning of the 2007 school year, our school carried out a narrative exchange of moral education, "What did I do for the students with my own strength?" The ideological qualities of backbone teachers, such as attaching importance to morality, reality and performance, and loving schools, posts and students, have played a positive role in radiating and leading young teachers. The solid education and teaching work of backbone teachers has promoted the process of education and teaching in the whole school, and at the same time forged the excellent professional quality of backbone teachers in this process-loyal to education with a pure heart, thus promoting the development of the school and self-professional development.
Second, build a training platform-enrich the theoretical training of key teachers.
Our school is in "Ten? In the "Five-year Plan", it is clearly proposed to strengthen the construction of teachers. Focusing on the cultivation and improvement of young teachers, we will establish a young teacher education research association to form a backbone teacher team with advanced educational concepts and teaching and research capabilities, and be brave in pioneering and innovating. To this end, the school has intensified its school-based training and study abroad.
First of all, the way of inviting in was adopted. Since 2003, the school has invited education experts to give lectures every year, and has invited senior experts such as Zhao Qianxiang, Wang Jinzhan and Pan Jingfeng to give lectures on topics such as "What kind of teachers are needed in the new era", "Growing together with students", "The significance and construction of high-quality educational resources" and "Governing education with morality and building teachers' morality".
From 2005 to 2007, the school hired experts and scholars such as Zhang Dianping, president of No.11 Middle School, David Shen and Chen Xuefeng, professors of Beihua University, and Zhang Shaohua, secretary-general of Jilin Education Society, for special training. On June 5438+ 10, 2007, the teaching and research section of the school recommended the book "How Talents are Tempered" written by Mr. Wang Jinzhan, a special-grade teacher and excellent head teacher of the middle school affiliated to Peking University, as the teacher winter vacation homework. On March 12, the school invited Mr. Wang Jinzhan, the author of this book, to give a special report on "Educational Thought Transformation and Teaching Behavior Innovation". Through a series of exchanges and training, the vision of key teachers has been expanded, the teaching and research level has been improved, and the professional foundation has been consolidated. With humorous and vivid speeches, strong sense of responsibility for teaching and educating people, and a large number of vivid cases, Mr. Wang deeply attracted every key teacher present. With a blank sheet of paper and a modest attitude, backbone teachers realize the importance of self-construction and improve their theoretical level through listening and learning.
Secondly, organize seminars to improve the education level. The school cooperates with Northeast Normal University, organizes postgraduate classes in winter and summer vacations, and invites university professors to teach in person to improve the academic level of key teachers. At present, 126 backbone teachers have obtained postgraduate degrees in educational psychology.
Third, organize off-campus observation to broaden our horizons. Advocate backbone teachers to actively participate in all kinds of observation activities inside and outside the region and even inside and outside the province. Only before and after the start of the next semester in xx, four young backbone teachers went to Shanghai to participate in the "National Symposium on New Curriculum for Key Teachers" for ten days. In the same period, more than ten teachers were sent to Dalian to participate in the "three provinces and four cities" teaching observation activities, involving various disciplines.
Fourth, go abroad and actively carry out Sino-foreign exchanges.
In 2004, in order to promote the development of foreign language teaching, the school signed an exchange agreement with the American Center for Transnational Cultural Exchange to exchange visiting teachers bilaterally. In the same year, a teacher from Oshima Middle School in new york came to our school as a foreign teacher. The following year, our school sent two backbone English teachers, Shen He, to the United States for a three-month educational inspection and exchange study. In xx, our school held an academic exchange activity of "Montessori" teaching mode, and visited and exchanged the rest of my life from the United States. In May 2008, Mr. Tong went to the United States to participate in a one-year cultural exchange activity, and accompanied more than 40 people from New York State Girls' High School to visit the school.
Representatives of key teachers who come back from each business trip will give secondary training to teachers in the form of reports, lectures and subject group training, and pass on the most advanced teaching ideas, educational concepts, latest teaching trends and school-running experience in developed areas to other key teachers in the school. Through a series of study and observation activities, we will strengthen the classroom quality awareness of key teachers, improve the overall teaching efficiency and improve the teaching level. Key teachers should have at least 4 educational papers or experiences every year to improve their educational research ability.
Third, build a scientific research platform-strengthen the scientific research consciousness of key teachers.
Educational research is the forerunner of school work and the inexhaustible motive force for school development. Taking education and teaching research as the fulcrum and promoting the growth of backbone teachers is the role of "research-oriented schools, developing education through scientific research". We put forward that "we should look up at the blue sky and be an ugly duckling who dares to flap its wings and fly"; Don't bow your head silently, be an old ox who is willing to plow. "
At the beginning of May, xx, our school successfully applied for the key project of the Eleventh Five-Year Plan of Jilin Education Society, "Research on' Self-development and Humanization' Dynamic Education and Teaching Management Mode". Under the general project, we require every backbone teacher to take the lead in participating in the research of the project, assume the main role in the research of the project, and let the backbone undertake more tasks. After two years of operation, the research has achieved fruitful results, and teachers' teaching behavior and classroom teaching have undergone tremendous changes. Through research, backbone teachers have improved their ideological realm, constantly formed scientific educational ideas, enhanced their information awareness, improved their teaching level, and formed their own styles and characteristics in teaching.
The school research office publishes a monthly issue of Teaching and Research Newspaper. The backbone teachers are required to actively contribute, so that the advanced teaching ideas, good teaching strategies and teaching methods of the backbone teachers can be textualized. Play the role of radiation and epitaxy. In xx, 8 1 person in our school became a member of Jilin Education Society; Two key teachers have obtained outstanding achievements in provincial scientific research; 17 backbone teachers won the prize in the paper appraisal sponsored by China Education Research Association; Our school was also rated as "Advanced School of Teaching System and Scientific Research in 2005"; Two backbones were rated as municipal scientific research teachers; Two people participated in the municipal scientific research backbone teacher forum and won the prize; 23 people participated in the selection of excellent papers of primary and secondary school teachers in the province and won awards; Another 24 teachers' papers have been included in the collection of provincial education essays and will be published soon.
Fourth, build a training platform-improve the practical operation level of key teachers.
The backbone teachers are the first capital of the school and the most abundant, potential and vital educational resources. Only by having a group of teachers with both ability and political integrity, full of love and dedication can we run a school well. The series of activities of "Passing Band Four and Fighting for Four Cups" are specially designed for teachers to improve their professional skills. Combined with the activities of "Double Hundred Flowers" and "Quality Class for Thousands of People" in the Green Park, the "Passing Grade 4 and Fighting for Four Cups" was carried out in a down-to-earth manner. These "four levels" are: developing the basic skills competition of "Sailing Cup" and the teaching ability competition of "Fenghua Cup"; "Imagination Cup" for customs clearance of competitive business; Carry out "special cup" competition for scientific research. In this school's basic skills competition, backbone teachers participated in the fourth cup-"Special Cup" competition. Through class competition and class evaluation competition, the backbone teachers are led to be more mature in teaching and form their own teaching characteristics and styles. The excellent teaching of backbone teachers greatly inspired young teachers and made them dare to let go of their unique teaching methods.
Fifth, build a communication platform-broaden the development space of key teachers.
In the process of cultivating backbone teachers, the leaders of our school strive to build a platform for teachers to exchange and discuss. Let teachers fully absorb nutrition from it, keep charging, learn in many ways, learn at any time, and learn for life.
The school carries out reading activities with the theme of "concentrate on reading, enrich connotation and promote development" among teachers. Recommend and distribute relevant books in time. Strive to improve teachers' cultural literacy and constantly enrich teachers' educational wisdom. Promote sex by reading and constantly update educational concepts. The school's teaching and research section is responsible for the publicity and planning of activities, using the campus network to build a reading exchange platform, recommending classic reading lists for key teachers every semester, and requiring key teachers to write their own reading experiences according to the recommended reading lists and optional reading lists, and communicate in the reading forum held by the school. The school has set up a reading exchange QQ group, which can use the network for reading exchange at any time. Last semester, we organized key teachers in the district to participate in the training on how to set up a teacher blog, and called for setting up their own teacher blog in Sina. Join the school blog world for unified management and communication. Backbone teachers promote action through reading, improve through communication, improve their cultural literacy, enrich their educational wisdom and update their educational concepts! In this series of activities, teachers have established the concept of continuous learning and lifelong learning, which has also made the backbone teachers take a step forward.
Our school has established the "professional development forum for backbone teachers" and "experience exchange for senior high school entrance examination proposition teachers" as the main channels for the development of backbone teachers. Each activity has different contents and various forms, but it fully embodies the teacher's brand-new educational concept and real reflection and thinking on education and teaching. There are not only high-level teaching strategies, but also flexible teaching methods, including the love of boxing, the conscience of teachers and the heavy responsibility.
Through a series of training in recent years, backbone teachers shoulder dual tasks, improve themselves and make themselves a veritable teaching backbone. But also can drive the surrounding teachers to learn and improve together. It can be said that they are ahead in three aspects of the school: study, research and practice.
Now, all disciplines in our school have their own academic leaders and backbone teachers, and the number and level of backbone teachers have been significantly improved. Our school now has municipal experts 1 person, provincial academic leaders 1 person, 6 provincial backbone teachers, 5 provincial backbone trainees, 2 provincial top ten students, 5 provincial rookies, 2 provincial teaching experts, 9 municipal backbone teachers1person, 43 district backbone teachers and 8 district-level scientific research backbone teachers1person. In 2008, there were 25 middle school students and 10 primary school students in our school, who passed the written test and became the training targets of key teachers in Changchun. The successful graduation of the third batch of 25 backbone teachers and the opening of the fourth batch of backbone classes in our district have injected new vitality and vitality into the backbone teachers in our school.
The backbone teachers not only have honor on their heads, but also have responsibilities on their bodies. They should play the leading role of backbone teachers, drive other teachers to grow and strengthen the backbone teachers more closely, and improve the quality of the whole teaching team. Therefore, we strengthen the activities of "passing, helping and bringing" in the school, and take the classroom as the carrier to effectively improve the professional level of the students. Backbone teachers can't wait, rely on or ask for it. We should fully realize that the main position for teachers' growth lies in schools. To this end, 87 middle school insists on the "pairing" activity between key teachers and training objects. In 2004, the first batch of 20 pairs of apprentices in our school helped each other. This year, all the apprentices graduated, and some of them became new backbone teachers. In September 2008, combined with the reality of our school, 12 pairs of backbone apprentices were established. Let the trainees freeze first, then enter the grid, until they jump out of the "mode" and gradually form their own teaching characteristics and styles. In order to reflect the training achievements of key teachers in the school, the school will hold a key teacher competition every academic year.
In order to give full play to the role of backbone teachers at all levels, 32 backbone teachers in our school participated in the "Blue Project" and "Leading, Driving, Inter-school Joint and Balanced Development" projects in the whole district respectively. This year, under the organization of Changchun City Federation of Trade Unions, our school has become a rural school teacher training school. 65438+ 10 At the beginning of June, 20 rural teachers from Yushu came to our school for training; at the end of June, 65438+ 10, 3 teachers from Dehui came to our school. In 2006 and 2007 alone, the number of backbone teachers in our school sent classes to the countryside totaled 19, and the number of people sent classes was 22. The places to send classes are Jiutai No.3 Middle School, Nong 'an No.3 Middle School, Yushu No.3 Middle School, Shuangyang, Baicheng, 65, 438+026 Middle School and No.28 Middle School.
Looking back on the development of 87 middle school, we are delighted to see that the backbone teachers are growing step by step. Looking forward to the future, relying on the outstanding performance of key teachers, we are more confident. Today, I take this opportunity to talk about some inexperienced practices and share them with you. Tomorrow, I hope we can work together to support the blue sky of education!
