First, high school is not only an important period for students to learn knowledge, but also an important stage for the healthy development of personality and body and mind, which has important guiding significance for people's lifelong development.
In the process of reflecting on high school education, educators in our country found that the fierce and cruel competition for further education and various complicated reasons made schools face great pressure for survival and development, and further education became the sole purpose of almost all schools. In the process of chasing top students with high scores, the development and cultivation of students' sound personality and physical and mental health are ignored. To a great extent, some students lack lofty ideals and beliefs, social responsibility, proactive learning attitude and interest, and it is difficult to improve their moral quality. Students study and communicate with utilitarian purposes. It can be seen that the past high school education neglected people's physical and mental health, sound personality, social responsibility and other related education, which is not desirable, and it is an irresponsible performance for students, as well as for the nation and the country. Therefore, under the new period and new historical conditions, it is necessary to reform high school education to make it develop normally and healthily.
Second, high school education is not only to train talents for universities, but more importantly, to lay a good foundation for improving the quality of the people.
For a long time in the past, until now, high school education still revolves around the baton of the college entrance examination consciously or unconsciously, and the school will teach whatever is tested in the college entrance examination. The social evaluation of a school depends on the enrollment rate of the college entrance examination, the number of Peking University, Tsinghua, key points, undergraduate courses and so on. As we all know, the results of college entrance examination should be an indicator to measure a school, but it is not the only indicator, nor should it be the only pursuit of running a school by society and the state. High school education is connected with nine-year compulsory education and higher education and occupies a special position in the education system. Senior high school study is not a natural extension of compulsory education, but a higher level education for students after nine-year compulsory education. It can be seen that high school is an important stage of basic education and a key stage for students at the crossroads of their lives. It has unique value in cultivating citizens' basic quality and forming a sound personality. It is necessary not only to train talents for colleges and universities, but also to lay a good foundation for the lifelong development of every student, so that students not only have the ability to continue learning, but more importantly, they have the awareness of planning the future and understanding the society, the basic ability to start a business, and the ability to withstand the pressure of future life.
On the basis of junior high school students, the self-awareness of senior high school students is obviously enhanced. Apart from their own achievements, they pay more attention to politics, life and society, and more importantly, they pay more attention to the fate of the country. They gradually understand the basic knowledge of laws, rights and obligations, can correctly distinguish between good and evil, can integrate into society and the collective, have closer ties with society, gradually enhance their social practice ability, and initially have the ability to participate in social activities. They began to think about their own. Therefore, high school education should face the future, be responsible for students' lifelong development and make profits for their long-term development. We can't simply improve their grades and ignore the improvement of their other qualities.
High school education plays an important role in improving national quality. Ordinary senior high schools should further improve and enrich the national quality on the basis of compulsory education, and guide students to consciously think and plan their future lives. Senior high school education should create conditions for the development of students with different potentials. Its most important orientation is to lay a foundation for human development and emphasize people-oriented, not just to train talents for universities. Senior high school education should make them clear their unique values and historical mission, which should be the core content of the reform and development of senior high school education in China, the core task of promoting people's all-round development, and the indispensable condition and foundation for building a harmonious society.
Third, under the historical conditions in the new period, high school education should be diversified to comprehensively improve the comprehensive quality of ordinary high school students.
In the Outline of the National Medium-and Long-term Education Reform and Development Plan, the state put forward specific development ideas for senior high school education: "Deepen curriculum reform, fully implement the curriculum plan, and ensure that students can fully complete the study of various courses such as arts and sciences stipulated by the state. Create conditions to offer colorful elective courses, provide more choices for students, and promote their all-round development and personality development. Gradually eliminate the phenomenon of large classes. Actively carry out research study, community service and social practice. Establish a scientific evaluation system of education quality, and fully implement the high school level examination and comprehensive quality evaluation. Establish a guidance system for students' development and strengthen guidance for students' ideals, psychology and studies. "
"Promote the diversification of the school-running system and expand high-quality resources. Promote the diversification of training modes to meet the development needs of students with different potentials. Explore ways to discover and cultivate innovative talents. Encourage ordinary high schools to run their own characteristics. Encourage qualified ordinary high schools to appropriately increase the teaching content of vocational education according to the needs. Explore the development model of comprehensive high schools. Take a variety of ways to provide vocational education for students at school. "
It can be seen that China's clear requirements for high school education at this stage have adapted to the trend of social development, and schools at all levels and types should actively adapt to national policies and develop in a coordinated and scientific manner. Cultivate students' correct outlook on life, values and world view; Cultivate students' patriotism, democracy and legal awareness; Cultivate students to know themselves, respect others, society, society and nature.
Fourth, the curriculum reform of senior high school under the historical conditions in the new period should lay a foundation for the country to train high-quality laborers, specialized talents, top-notch talents, technical backbones and skilled craftsmen.
Since the new era, all countries in the world have been making education and training goals, and society has paid more attention to citizens' sense of responsibility, teamwork ability, ability to survive and adapt to society, creativity and critical thinking, communication ability, information literacy and international vision. The establishment of the training objectives of ordinary high schools is of great significance to the reform and development of ordinary high schools, and will have a far-reaching impact on bringing up hundreds of millions of high-quality workers, tens of millions of specialized talents and a large number of top-notch talents.
According to the needs of social development, curriculum reform is a necessary condition for cultivating a large number of outstanding talents. The new round of senior high school curriculum reform in China has adjusted and reformed the curriculum design and content, changed the single subject-centered curriculum structure, and established a curriculum structure based on learning fields, which fully embodies diversity and selectivity, creates conditions for students' lifelong development, and strives to make the curriculum a platform for students' all-round development, personality development and self-reliance. This high school curriculum reform has also appropriately added new curriculum areas or categories. Considering the cognitive level, career preparation and development characteristics of senior high school students, labor technology education and information technology education are separated from comprehensive practical activities and incorporated into basic courses as technical courses, with a view to improving students' technical literacy, promoting students' development in all aspects and improving their innovative spirit and practical ability. The cultivation of technical quality is very important to the improvement of national quality, and its core is the ability to analyze and solve problems. Technical education is not to learn simple repairs, but to let citizens have technical awareness, technical concepts and know the most basic technical common sense. The design of general technology course pays attention to cultivating students' technical thinking mode, combining students' hands with their brains, and combining theory with practice. Information literacy includes technical ability, communication ability, problem-solving ability, observing moral and legal rules, and forming a sense of social responsibility, which is of great significance to both students and any member of society.
It can be seen that the content of high school education in the new period is rich and colorful, which is a combination of knowledge literacy and ability, self and society, individuality and generality, diversity and comprehensive quality, theory and practice, and more importantly, the combination of people's staged development and lifelong development.
