Zhao Xingyi, a teacher of Dongfanghong Primary School in Qingyang City, has been a class teacher for 37 years. He said, "As long as I am still a teacher, I will be the head teacher." Teacher Zhao's attitude towards the head teacher has not changed, but the attitude of young teachers towards the head teacher has changed: if you can never be a head teacher, you will never be a teacher.
Huang Jun, a junior high school Chinese teacher in Rouyuan, Huachi County, launched the curriculum reform project of "Life-oriented Teaching of Chinese Reading and Writing in Junior High School" to encourage students to read the author's life from the text and then write their own life into the composition. As a result, the attitude of students in Chinese class has changed, and the attitude of writing has also changed.
All these "changes", in the view of Lu Huadong, director of Qingyang Education Bureau, can be summarized as "returning education to its true nature". Zhu Yongxin, a famous educator, visited some primary and secondary schools in Qingyang in April this year. In his Weibo, he said with joy, "We have seen the changes in the living conditions of teachers and students in the west".
Make reading a habit.
201April 15, Lu Huadong was deeply moved after reading an article "Every teacher is a principal" written by Liu, the principal of Suzhou No.10 Middle School, and wrote a letter to the principal, which was sent to some principals of schools directly under the city and counties along with Liu's article.
Soon, the principals responded. Lu Shoulong, president of Zhengning No.3 Middle School, said that principals, teachers and students should "look at each other's advantages with appreciation and their shortcomings with development". Tong Junru, principal of Qijialou Junior High School in Xifeng District, said, "The principal should create a channel to wake up every teacher." Dou Xingwen, the headmaster of Qingyang No.1 Middle School who received the letter on the first day of school, said, "The headmaster can still do this!"
Lu Huadong said that 10 years ago, when he first served as the director of Qingyang Education Bureau, he found that there was a common phenomenon among primary and secondary school teachers: "The principal is an inertial principal and the teacher is an experienced teacher." He called this phenomenon "job burnout": "The core of job burnout is utilitarianism and impetuousness, and to overcome utilitarianism and impetuousness, we must nourish teachers' character and cultivate educational ecology through reading. "
In 2005, the "classic reading" activity in primary and secondary schools in Qingyang education system was fully launched. For teachers, the Municipal Education Bureau has issued a unified reading catalogue, which clearly requires every teacher to read at least one educational classic every year, and education directors at all levels must set an example. Since then, "reading clubs" of different sizes have sprung up in various schools, and the "reading clubs" of various schools have frequent exchanges. Reading classics, talking about experiences and writing experiences have gradually become a living habit of teachers, forming a long-term mechanism of "the director takes the principal to read, the principal takes the teacher to read, and the teacher takes the students to read", and a large number of "seed teachers" who love reading and are good at thinking have emerged.
Half an hour before class every afternoon from Monday to Friday, it is the time for teachers and students of Dongfanghong Primary School in Qingyang to study together. The requirements put forward by the school are: "students don't preview, don't do homework, teachers don't prepare lessons, and don't change homework."
The last two classes every Friday are the whole book reading time for teachers and students in Qingyang No.5 Middle School. The slogan put forward by the school is: "read classic books and be a rooted person."
Every Saturday night from 8: 00 to 9: 30, it is the online reading time for members of Qingyang Li Zhenxi Education Research Association. The purpose of the seminar is to "listen to the master's teachings and feel the true meaning of education."
This year, the city's education system launched the classic reading activity of "One Book, One Salon". The idea of the Municipal Education Bureau is: "Read a book together and think about one thing together."
Many teachers who graduated from normal universities said that they had never read educational classics at school, but they didn't expect to read them after work. Many schools display books written by teachers and students in their reading achievement showrooms, which is not only a vivid interpretation of "scholarly campus", but also the best footnote for "happy teachers".
Before this year 10 months, Fan Jianguo, the headmaster of Dongfanghong Primary School in Qingyang City, read nine books, and Suhomlinski's "Suggestions for Teachers" was read twice, making more than 20,000 words of reading notes. He said that a lot of reading accumulation has made the teachers of Dongfanghong Primary School more and more emboldened, more and more aura and more atmospheric. "The normal state of school education is to let students follow real scholars."
