On the Importance of Cultivating Education The famous educator Mr. Ye Shengtao once said, "What is education? In a simple sentence, it is to develop habits. " "Moral education is to develop good behavior habits, intellectual education is to develop good study habits, and physical education is to develop good exercise habits." In order to cultivate students' good habits, our school regards formative education as a school-based course, and I am the teacher of formative education. Through several years of teaching practice, I think it is very important to educate students. First, look at the importance of cultivating education from the perspective of Nobel Prize winners. 1987 65438+ 10 In October, 75 Nobel Prize winners met in Paris. Someone asked one of the winners, "Which university and laboratory did you learn the most important thing?" The white-haired scholar replied, "In kindergarten." "What did you learn in kindergarten?" The scholar replied: "Give half of your things to your friends, don't take things that aren't your own, wash your hands before eating, apologize for doing something wrong, have a rest after lunch, and observe the nature around you carefully." Fundamentally speaking, all the things I have learned are these. " What did the scholar learn from these words "fundamentally"? I learned to live and be a man. The scholar's answer tells the most common and enlightening truth-it is very important to cultivate education. Confucius said, "Less is nature, and habit is nature." In other words, the habits formed as a child will be as natural and firm as human nature, and even become your nature. In this way, many aspects of future success and miracles are supported by habits developed as children. When a habit is formed, it is also when a character is formed. People's personality is gradually formed and developed in life practice. A large part of a person's character is manifested in his habitual behavior. Therefore, from the beginning of cultivating good behavior habits, we can finally shape a good character. "Sowing habit, harvesting character, sowing character, harvesting life" is the truth. Bell Prize winners also fully confirmed this truth. Education affects people's life! Therefore, if you want to train your children into useful people, please make up the lesson of "training education". Second, the importance of fostering education from the current situation of the only child. Look at the only child now: blindly asking others and forgetting to improve themselves; Self-centered, everything is self-centered; Narcissism is serious and loneliness is particularly strong; Can't do housework, poor self-control; Weak willpower and strong dependence; Pursuing pleasure, content with the status quo, not seeking progress; Do not talk about responsibility, rights, obligations and the rule of law; Indifferent to people and things, unwilling to distinguish between good and evil, unwilling to distinguish between beauty and ugliness, unwilling to distinguish between right and wrong; Internet cafes in game halls have become places of emotional sustenance, and jeans and T-shirts have become the pursuit of dressing up; My mouth is full of words such as handsome boy, pretty girl, cool, cool, handsome, cool and handsome. Swearing words like "shit" and "your mother's" are not satisfactory ... these are the physical and mental characteristics, manners and behavior habits of some modern middle school students. In the long run, such children will only become a burden to the family and society. It can be seen that nurturing education affects families and even the whole society. To reverse the social atmosphere, we must make up the course of "fostering education". It has been three years since our school started the formative education course. We have compiled a school-based textbook "Cultivating Education". The content of "formative education" is very extensive. We have compiled all the relevant contents into a book, which is divided into three parts: management system, ideology and morality, and safety knowledge. "Management System" consists of twenty items, such as "Code for Middle School Students" and "Code for Daily Behavior of Middle School Students". The "Ideological and Moral Chapter" includes patriotism and law-abiding, civility and courtesy, honesty and trustworthiness, unity and friendship, thrift, self-improvement, diligent study, love for the collective, dedication and so on. Safety knowledge includes family life safety, outdoor activities safety, traffic safety, fire safety, social life safety and network safety. One lesson, one theme, action implementation. Through several years of teaching, students have initially developed good behavior norms, study habits and living habits. Now I often hear polite expressions such as "good teacher", "good teacher", "I'm sorry" and "it doesn't matter". Less swearing, no nickname; Discipline is good, fighting is gone; Less scraps of paper, no traces of phlegm; Dressed simply, strange clothes are gone; There are too many shouts of "report" at the door, and the "bang" is gone; The class atmosphere is good, and the crime is gone; Good study habits, good academic performance ... formative education has achieved initial results. Therefore, in order to make students develop in an all-round way, we must have a good "formative education" class. Fourthly, the importance of educating people from the perspective of creating a "harmonious campus". In 2008, both the Provincial Department of Education and the Municipal Education Bureau put forward the requirements of "building a harmonious campus" in primary and secondary schools and kindergartens in the city. This is the focus of each of our schools in 2008. It is very important to create a "harmonious campus" and educate people. Imagine: How can a student in a school create a "harmonious campus" if he swears at random, hits people easily, doesn't obey discipline in class, and has no good study habits and behavior habits? Cultivating education affects the style of study, class spirit and school spirit of a school. To create a "harmonious campus", we must implement formative education. Fifth, from the requirements of the new era to see the importance of training education. In the new era, the concept of talents has a new connotation: look at academic qualifications and attach importance to talents; Thick foundation and wide specialty; There must be achievements and high quality; Look at being a man first, then look at being a man. This is the requirement of the new era for workers. What qualities should middle school students have in the new century? The State Council's decision on the reform and development of basic education has given the answer: "Students should have the spirit of patriotism and collectivism, love socialism, and inherit and carry forward the fine traditions and revolutionary traditions of the Chinese nation; Have a sense of socialist democracy and legal system, and abide by national laws and social ethics; Gradually form a correct world outlook, outlook on life and values; Have a sense of social responsibility and strive to serve the people; Have the initial spirit of innovation, practical ability, scientific and humanistic quality and environmental awareness; Have the basic knowledge, skills and methods to adapt to lifelong learning; Have a strong physique and good psychological quality, develop a healthy aesthetic taste and lifestyle, and become a new generation with ideals, morality, culture and discipline. "Although many middle school students' behavior habits have improved, they are still far from this requirement. After China's entry into WTO, everything will be done in accordance with international practice. If you don't develop all good behavior habits as soon as possible, the consequences will be unimaginable. Whether we can revitalize the Chinese nation depends on whether we can train enough high-quality talents in 5 ~ 10 years. In the face of international competition, we should pay more attention to fairness, justice, unity and cooperation, pay equal attention to dedication and competition rules, and need high-quality compound talents in Kaku Takashina. Without good behavior habits and interpersonal relationships, it is impossible to better adapt to the modern living environment through reading. Therefore, in order to adapt to the development of the times, we must strengthen the cultivation education. In a word, school education is to train and bring up a large number of successors and laborers with high moral standards, high civilization and high ideological quality for the country and the nation. In order to achieve this goal, formative education plays an extremely important role in the whole educational activities.
