Liu Tiefang is a caring educator, which can be seen from every word he says. A person who does not love education will not think so deeply and analyze so sharply about various phenomena of education, and see the deep problems behind the excitement from history to modernity and from home to abroad. After reading it, I am ashamed of my ignorance and my shallowness.
As a teacher, one's own growth and personal self-improvement are integrated. In other words, as a teacher, if you want to make your life meaningful, you must realize it through the teacher's self-growth. But this realization should be calm and true, not to occupy a place in the excitement and get honor, but to think deeply in peace and get promoted. I think it can make a difference in my quality of life. [Organizer]
I like what Liu Tiefang said: the awakening of teachers' educational consciousness. "Individuals began to have their own unique understanding and knowledge of education and teaching practice, and infiltrated this understanding into their new education and teaching practice, so that the ideological resources of individual education and teaching practice gradually got rid of external routines or authoritative knowledge and turned to individuals themselves, which came from a true understanding of education." There is no doubt that this is a higher level that teachers can reach, and I think it is also a happy level. A person, what can be happier than a deep understanding of thoughts? Every time you enter a new stage, there will be a joy of success. Perhaps this success has no flowers, applause or money, but the joy of understanding is incomparable to any other substance. This is the joy of the gradual improvement of the quality of life, and it is also the joy of a person's gradual self-improvement.
For the personal improvement of teachers, I think the first thing to learn is to think. Thinking about daily teaching, thinking about educational phenomena and thinking about self-life. Life without thoughts is terrible. All my life, I am as ordinary as me, like an ant, submerged in the vast sea of people, and before I have tasted life, I have found that most of the good times have passed away. How to make a short life more fulfilling? I choose thinking as the theme of my life. Choosing to think is actually a yearning for wisdom, which makes people more dignified. Liu Tiefang's educational prose, each of which has profound thinking traces, is not superficial, does not blindly follow experts, does not blindly follow authority, and dares to challenge traditional educational concepts. He considers himself an educational enthusiast and an educational thinker. The basic reason for his existence is constant thinking, refusing to accept all ready-made conclusions indiscriminately, and refusing to play himself as a pretender of truth to publish educational conclusions and standard answers. On the contrary, he opened himself up when answering the most basic educational questions, constantly questioning, questioning and questioning again. Indeed, his rational thinking is full of wisdom, which makes you realize that thinking should be done while seeing his different general views.
Of course, thinking is not fantasy, so what you think can't be suppressed, but only floats on the surface. Reading is the source of thinking. As a teacher, "never too old to learn" is not only a personal requirement, but also a professional requirement. Teachers need to read. Reading is sometimes very hard and needs persistence; Sometimes I am lonely and need patience. In the growth history of every excellent teacher, reading occupies a large space, and reading should become an indispensable part of teachers' life. We need to read literature, psychology, pedagogy, philosophy and science ... The richer the internal accumulation, the deeper our understanding and the closer our thinking is to the truth. This combination of reading and thinking will enrich our hearts and enrich our lives.
Writing is also an important way to promote thinking. Anyone who has had writing experience knows that the process of writing is the process of sorting out, that is, the process of making thinking more meticulous and logic more reasonable. In the process of writing, we need to look at the overall situation and overlook the overall situation. We need to try our best to lift the veil of fog and see the essence through the phenomenon. We need to try our best to express it more accurately and reasonably. This process may be hard, but the harvest is gratifying. "Educational narrative", as Liu Tiefang said, is really not a difficult thing. These stories record the educational events in life, "becoming our reflective practice of our own educational life and an important form to increase our practical knowledge and enhance the character of this practical knowledge." "Educational narrative has become an important way for us to change the monotony and mediocrity of our daily educational life." If we are tired of teaching day after day, we should try educational narration. With thinking in narrative, the traces of our individual life will become vivid and interesting, full of life breath.
Reading a book, as long as there is a little gain, this book is not in vain. In my opinion, reading a book and gaining a way of thinking is the biggest gain. Reading the book "Watch Education", the biggest gain I got was the breakthrough of thinking mode. Our generation grew up under the influence of a highly politicized ideology, believing that life is either black or white, and so is education. As long as you follow the direction pointed out by experts, you can't go wrong. Life and education are complicated, and we don't just classify them and give standard answers casually. We can think and explore, but we can't stand still. There may never be an answer, and I may be constantly confused, but I believe, "I think, therefore I am."
"Mediocrity is the epitaph of mediocrity", which is Liu Tiefang's description of the national football team. I think it also applies to everyone's life. Unwilling to be mediocre, we need to constantly improve ourselves. A person's self-improvement is a person's happiness; The self-improvement of a teacher and the awakening of educational consciousness are the happiness of a group of people. I don't know how far the road of education can go. I am willing to "reap Mo Wen with no pains".
Everything is like smoke, let me think while walking.
