Since 1980s, with the development of society, people's demand for education and teaching has been increasing, and the discussion on teacher professionalization has reached an unprecedented height. "Teachers are researchers" has also become a concept and goal generally recognized by the education sector and even the whole society.
"Teachers are researchers" has rich connotations and profound meanings, which are embodied as follows:
Teachers are researchers, which means that in the teaching process, teachers should not only complete certain teaching tasks, but also pay attention to the problems in educational reality, analyze them and rise to the theoretical level; At the same time, we should constantly reflect on ourselves, improve our research ability and make ourselves a research-oriented teacher.
Teachers' educational research has the following characteristics:
① The research on teacher education mainly points to practice and focuses on improving education and teaching. The problems it studies must be in its own school, in its own classroom, among its own students and in its own teaching.
(2) Teachers are the parties in the process of education. They are exposed to real and vivid education and teaching situations and have experienced the scene from beginning to end. Naturally, they can study education as participants in education, which is conducive to revealing the deep state of educational events.
The purpose of teachers' direct research is to improve education and teaching, not for educational research.
