How to choose a topic for teaching and research papers
Writing teaching and research papers is an effective way for teachers to discuss teaching problems, sum up practical experience and get theoretical support, and it is also an inherent requirement for teachers to improve their own quality and promote professional development. But in reality, many teachers are trapped in the problem of "what to write in teaching and research papers". What to write in teaching and research papers? This is actually a topic selection problem of the thesis. First, what the author didn't write-the topic of the innovation principle teaching and research paper is innovation. Only by writing something new can teaching and research papers make readers shine, arouse their reading desire and give people new enlightenment and thinking. A teaching and research paper will lose its significance as a teaching and research paper if it is simply copied or repeated by others without the author's new ideas, discoveries and viewpoints. 1, open up new fields. Opening up new fields means that teachers can get the topics of teaching and research papers from those fields that have not been studied or rarely studied. Opening up new fields can be macro, such as the proposal and implementation of a new round of curriculum reform, which is a brand-new field for our teachers. If we can find the topics of teaching and research papers, we can often write innovative papers. Opening up new fields can also be micro-aspect, micro-to all specific links of teaching, such as introduction, new lessons, summary, homework, examination and so on. As far as the current teaching and research situation is concerned, there are relatively many papers written by teachers from the aspects of new lesson introduction, new lesson teaching and after-class summary, but how to arrange homework and how to write test questions is rarely involved. Therefore, this is a new field that we need to explore when choosing the topic of teaching and research papers. 2. Put forward new ideas. Putting forward new ideas means that the writing of teaching and research papers can put forward the author's new opinions and viewpoints on a certain issue, which can be mainly divided into three situations: first, the "fill-in-the-blank type", that is, an issue that has not yet reached a clear conclusion and viewpoint is analyzed and discussed to form a relatively clear point of view to fill the gap; The second is "supplementary explanation", that is, although a certain conclusion has been drawn on a certain issue, if you feel that it is not complete enough, you can make supplementary analysis, improve and form a paper; The third is "correct criticism", that is, although a certain problem has been reached or someone has put forward a point of view, you think this conclusion or point of view is debatable. You can write a teaching and research paper on this topic and put forward your own new point of view on the basis of pointing out its problems specifically. 3. Find a new angle. In the process of selecting topics for specific teaching and research papers, we often find that a lot of content has been written, and even many people have written it. Can these contents be written? Is it worth writing? Can you write something new? The answer is yes. The key is that you should be good at finding new angles. Second, do what you can-the principle of feasibility Adhering to the principle of feasibility is an important condition for the success of teaching and research papers, and it is also the premise and important guarantee for teachers to write high-quality teaching and research papers. Therefore, when considering the topic selection of teaching and research papers, teachers should take a look and think about what they have done in peacetime in combination with their own actual situation, ability scope, work situation, and foster strengths and avoid weaknesses, so as to "write as soon as possible". 1, choose a topic from your own advantages. Everyone will have their own strengths and specialties, as well as their own shortcomings and weaknesses. If teachers can choose topics from their own specialties, it will be easier to write papers with content, quality and originality. For example, teachers with high computer level and proficient in network technology can consider selecting topics from multimedia courseware making, network teaching, information technology, curriculum integration and so on; For example, a political teacher with rich knowledge of historical geography may choose a topic from the perspective of subject infiltration; Teachers with profound knowledge of classical Chinese and profound attainments in China's traditional culture can write papers from the aspects of inheriting and developing traditional culture. In addition, teachers can also find unique advantages from their own external environment, including the advantages at the school level and the advantages at the regional level, so as to obtain the topic of the paper. 2. Choose a topic from your own success. Every teacher will achieve something in his daily teaching practice. For example, some teachers do a particularly good job as class teachers, and some teachers have a particularly strong ability to control the classroom, and classroom teaching is very brilliant. Some teachers have done a particularly good job in accumulating teaching materials, and some teachers have made great achievements in guiding the college entrance examination, and so on. When writing teaching and research papers, teachers can choose topics from the aspects that they have done successfully in their own work according to their own situation. 3. Choose a topic from the issues you care about. Teaching and research papers often start with problems, which is the result of teachers' long-term thinking about a certain problem. Therefore, teachers can usually get the topics of teaching and research papers from the problems that they usually pay attention to and think about (that is, the problems that teachers pay attention to themselves). Once a teacher has selected a question (focus), he should continue to pay attention to it and keep thinking until he has a relatively complete view of it and forms a paper. Third, write what the teacher wants to write-the scope of the topic of the paper on practical principles generally has two aspects: basic theory (pure theory) research and applied research (work practice research). As our middle school teachers, the study of basic theories is not our strong point. I think we should choose the latter as the topic of teaching and research papers, that is, we should stick to practical principles: study problems in practice, reflect on gains and losses in practice and sum up experience in practice. "Writing what the teacher wants to write" is the best choice for our middle school teachers to write papers. 1. Problems in research practice. It is not only feasible but also necessary for our teachers to choose the problems in education and teaching practice as the topics of the thesis. Because of all kinds of problems encountered in the practice of education and teaching, we teachers must think and answer by ourselves. For example, the new version of the middle school ideological and political textbook published by People's Education Edition is readable, rich in materials and illustrated, but many teachers have two bad practices when dealing with the materials in the textbook: First, avoid using them; The second is to follow the book. Do you want to use teaching materials? How to use it? This is a problem that many of our political teachers deserve to study. 2. Reflect on the gains and losses in practice. Teaching reflection is an important way to promote teachers' professional development and improve their quality. Only by reflecting in practice can teachers constantly correct the direction of progress and remove obstacles in their growth, so as to constantly achieve self-transcendence. Of course, teaching reflection can be a teacher's reflection on his own personal practice or an analysis of other teachers' teaching practice. Every time you reflect on the gains and losses of your own or others' practice and analyze the advantages and disadvantages, it can become a topic for teachers to write teaching and research papers. 3. Sum up experience in practice. As a teacher, it is obviously not enough to just immerse yourself in teaching. Teachers must also be good at summing up experience in practice, record their own experiences, discoveries and understandings in teaching practice, study and summarize them in time, and express them systematically in words, thus becoming a teaching and research paper with great guiding significance. Teaching without research is shallow, and research without teaching is empty. Our middle school teachers should have a pair of discerning eyes, look for problems that people have not written, but they can write if they want, carry out research and write papers, organically combine teaching with teaching and research, realize learning in teaching and research, and constantly promote their professional growth.
