Schools are the cradle of cultivating talents and an important place to spread democratic ideas. In China, schools attach great importance to democratic education and integrate the spirit of democracy into the education and teaching process through various forms and ways.
I. Democratic management system
The school has established a democratic management system with principal responsibility system, staff congress system and student congress system as the main contents. Under this system, the principal should report his work to the staff congress and listen carefully to the opinions and suggestions of the staff. At the same time, the student congress system allows students to participate in school management and give full play to the spirit of ownership.
Second, the curriculum and teaching reform
In terms of curriculum, the school fully respects students' interests and development needs, and guides students to choose courses independently. In the teaching process, teachers pay attention to heuristic teaching, guide students to participate in discussions, and cultivate students' independent thinking and critical thinking ability. This kind of education mode is conducive to cultivating students' democratic consciousness and improving their democratic literacy.
Third, the democratization of teacher-student relationship.
In school, teachers respect students' personal dignity, care about their growth and treat every student equally. Teachers communicate with students like friends, listen to their opinions and suggestions, and guide students to establish correct values. In this democratic teacher-student relationship, students feel respect and it is easier to cultivate self-confidence, self-discipline and sense of responsibility.
Fourth, extracurricular activities are colorful.
The school actively carries out extracurricular activities so that students can fully display their talents in their spare time. Various interest classes, community activities, voluntary services, etc. Provide a broad stage for students. The school encourages students to participate in the planning, organization and implementation of these activities, cultivates students' teamwork and organizational leadership ability, and lays a foundation for future participation in social public affairs.
Fifth, there is a strong democratic atmosphere on campus.
The school pays attention to cultivating students' democratic consciousness, and educates students to cherish democratic rights and fulfill their civic obligations through thematic class meetings, current affairs and political lectures, moral education classes and other forms. In school, students learn to respect other people's opinions and dare to express their own opinions, forming a good democratic atmosphere.
Six, the close combination of family education and school education
Schools should strengthen communication with parents and jointly cultivate students' democratic literacy. At the parent-teacher conference, parents can put forward opinions and suggestions on school management, education and teaching, and student growth. The school actively adopts the reasonable suggestions of parents and jointly promotes the reform and development of the school.
In our school, democratic education runs through all aspects of education and teaching. Through various channels, the school enables students to grow up in a democratic environment and cultivate a new generation of citizens with democratic consciousness and literacy. This is not only in line with the development direction of education in China, but also conducive to the construction of socialist democratic politics.
