The ideological and moral construction of minors is a hot issue of current social concern. At present, the domestic and international environment we are facing is more complicated and changeable: social development and progress, diversified values, rapid expansion of the Internet, and unprecedented activity in social life have all made it more difficult and challenged to strengthen the ideological and moral construction of minors. The traditional work carrier can no longer meet the actual needs of ideological and moral construction of minors. In order to achieve new results in the ideological and moral construction of minors, we must innovate the work carrier, constantly expand the working ideas and fields, and strengthen the ideological and moral construction of minors in all directions.
First, the connotation and classification of minors' ideological construction carrier
What is a "carrier" has two meanings in Modern Chinese Dictionary: ① In science and technology, it refers to a substance that can transmit energy or carry other substances. For example, in order to increase the effective surface area of the catalyst, pumice and silica gel attached to the catalyst are carriers. (2) the material form that carries knowledge or information. It can be seen that the connotation of the carrier we want to study is close to the note 1, and the more popular explanation can be said that the carrier is the way and means.
In short, the carrier of minors' ideological and moral construction refers to the educational methods and means adopted to enhance minors' moral awareness, moral behavior norms and comprehensive moral quality, including carrying out moral education, organizing moral education, creating moral environment, setting moral positions and establishing moral mechanisms.
Through investigation, discussion and interview, we know that the carrier of ideological and moral construction of minors can be divided into five basic types.
1, the practice carrier. First, the school-led moral practice activities link students' study life with their ideological practice. By offering ideological and moral courses in primary and secondary schools, organizing colorful theme class meetings, class meetings and league meetings, and carrying out educational activities such as loving the motherland, people, labor, science and socialism, ideological, cultural, scientific and civilized education is integrated into practice. Second, practical activities based on society. Carefully build an activity platform conducive to the healthy growth of minors, organize students to participate in public welfare services and social services such as greening, environmental protection, respecting the elderly and helping the disabled, so that minors can get the experience of serving others and contributing to society.
2. Place the bracket. First, relying on the patriotic education base, combining history with reality, attracting minors to visit and study, understanding revolutionary traditions, enhancing patriotic feelings and improving ideological cultivation. Second, relying on special venues, such as libraries and youth activity centers, to attract young people, educate them and unite them with rich activities and rich contents. The third is to make use of the position of community education, give full play to the role of community education office and youth work Committee, and realize the mutual promotion between schools and communities by organizing campus twinning.
3. Cultural carrier. That is to meet the cultural needs of minors by creating diverse cultural carriers and rich cultural products. First, through the creation of outstanding literary and artistic works, actively organize the creative selection of children's music, dance and literature. Send excellent spiritual food to minors. The second is to enrich the content of cultural activities, such as cultural performance training, culture and art festivals, etc. Let healthy and excellent culture enter the campus, the community and the family. Third, by strengthening the function of cultural edification, we should combine the promotion of regional culture with the establishment of characteristic cultural schools, so that minors can feel, learn and inherit regional culture and cultivate the feelings of loving their hometown.
4. Environmental carrier. First, create an atmosphere of public opinion, widely publicize advanced models, and actively carry out supervision by public opinion. The second is to improve the social environment, strengthen the management of Internet cafes, and prevent minors from entering commercial Internet cafes. Carry out "anti-pornography" and "illegal publications", strengthen the supervision of the cultural market, and resolutely put an end to illegal publications that spread pornography, violence, feudal superstition and pseudoscience. The third is to improve the social education system, build a trinity education network of schools, families and society, give full play to the role of the Young Pioneers, the Communist Youth League and other relevant departments, and provide support and help for youth education.
5. Service operators. From the perspective of caring for teenagers, we should educate in service and guide in care. First, we should promote Project Hope, increase assistance to poor students, and concentrate our efforts on doing practical and good things for minors. Second, do a good job in helping and teaching, care for the young people who have lost their feet, and carry out pairing services to help them distinguish right from wrong and establish confidence in their study and life. The third is to carry out rights protection actions, protect the legitimate rights and interests of minors by promoting judicial rights protection, school rights protection and social rights protection, and strive to improve their safety awareness and self-protection ability.
The second is "the growth base of sincere care for teenagers"-the first brand of ideological and moral construction innovation for minors in our region.
Our district is located in the southeast of the main urban area of Nanjing, covering an area of 23 square kilometers. Residents are mainly indigenous residents and migrant workers in the south of the old city. The population is dense and the personnel composition is complex. The ideological and moral construction of their children has always been the focus and difficulty of our work. In recent years, in view of the new situation and new problems in the ideological and moral construction of minors, combined with the actual situation in our district, our district has actively innovated the carrier of activities, expanded the scope and scope of services, constantly safeguarded the legitimate rights and interests of teenagers, cared for teenagers, especially those who are weak, marginal, problematic and illegal, and provided quality and effective services for their healthy growth. Our district has successively established the "Sincerely Love Juvenile Growth Base" and the "Pearl River Juvenile Reeducation through Labor Base". Through these two new carriers and platforms, the ideological and moral education of minors in our district, especially those who are on the verge of slipping, has been further strengthened and achieved good results.
In particular, the "Cheng 'ai Youth Growth Base", which was established in April 2004, is the first professional base specializing in the correction of juvenile offenders in China. The "Sincere Love" base is a community service organization in our district, which is based on the actual needs of youth work, focuses on preventing and reducing juvenile delinquency, is based on the practical experience of socialization of related work in recent years, is led by functional departments such as the Communist Youth League Committee and procuratorial organs, is based on the professional intervention of social workers and the community as a platform, and integrates youth correction and youth service. Since its establishment, the base has played an important role in correcting and preventing juvenile delinquency. 22 juvenile suspects have been treated in the community. At present, 5 people are admitted to university, 10 people are back to school, 5 people are employed and 2 people are unemployed. There is no illegal record, and the correction rate reaches 100%.
The advanced service concept and good social effect of Cheng 'ai base have been highly valued by leaders at all levels and widely praised by all walks of life. In the first half of 2006, in order to further expand the scale and effect of the "sincere love" base, on the basis of giving full play to the role of the original "sincere love" base, our district integrated the judicial organs, government functional departments and various social resources in the whole district, and set up "sincere love youth growth base" in five streets, with ideological and moral education and crime prevention as the main work contents, to provide integrated correction and services for juvenile delinquents. A three-level work network has been established, including the district "Cheng 'ai" base leadership office, the street "Cheng 'ai" base and the community "Cheng 'ai" workstation, and the community juvenile offenders' correction and assistance for marginal and troubled teenagers have been carried out in depth. In the first half of 2007, the "Sincere Love" base was awarded the second prize in 2006 by the Central Civilization Office, and has been inspected and studied by the central, provincial and municipal departments for many times, which has been highly valued and fully affirmed. "Sincere love" base has become the first brand of ideological and moral construction innovation for minors in our region.
Third, the problems in carrier innovation and the principles to be followed.
There is no doubt about the adaptability and vitality of the emerging carrier, but it is precisely because it is a brand-new thing, there is no precedent to follow, and everything is progressing in exploration. So there are bound to be many problems and difficulties, which deserve our attention. Below, take the "Ai Cheng Youth Growth Base" in our district as an example to make a brief analysis.
1, according to local conditions. At present, five streets in the whole region have set up a "sincere love" youth growth base with ideological and moral education and crime prevention as the main work content, integrating juvenile delinquency correction and youth service, and established a three-level working network of the district "sincere love" base leadership office, street "sincere love" base and community "sincere love" workstation. However, the focus of the "sincere love" base in five streets is different. For example, the "sincere love" base of Confucius Temple is good at carrying out activities, and the "sincere love" base of Zhonghuamen Street has advantages in the utilization and integration of resources. This involves a question of adapting to local conditions, universality and particularity. That is, the "sincere love" base has expanded from the initial operation in a street to the current regional level. On the basis of overall planning of the work in the whole region, combined with the characteristics of various streets and even communities, how to do a good job in youth correction and youth service will become the focus of thinking and research in the coming period.
2. Management and energy issues. The "Cheng 'ai Base" has been extended to the whole region since its initial establishment, and is jointly organized and cooperated by many departments. On the one hand, the integration of multi-resources can effectively avoid the waste of resources, so as to maximize the benefits. However, on the other hand, it also brings a problem, which is the diversification of management. At present, the "Sincere Love Base" is under the management of the Political and Legal Committee, but the influence of other departments still exists, especially because of the need of mutual work between departments or the numerous investigation and research tasks of their units, which leads to the staff of the "Sincere Love Base" spending considerable energy and time to deal with related problems, which has affected the "Sincere Love Base" to a certain extent.
3. Personnel management. At present, there are 6 professional judicial social workers in Cheng 'ai Base, who have undertaken most of the tasks of Cheng 'ai Base in our district, which can be said to be a solid skeleton of Cheng 'ai Base. However, due to conditions, they are still contract workers, and their hukou cannot be settled in Nanjing, and various welfare benefits have also been affected to some extent. These unstable factors have affected their enthusiasm for work to some extent. Therefore, under the limited economic conditions in our region, how to improve the treatment of six professional judicial social workers in Cheng 'ai base and how to effectively improve the conditions and abilities of recruiting, retaining and educating people in our region are major problems to be solved urgently.
Obviously, facing the new situation and new problems, it is necessary and necessary to innovate the carrier of ideological and moral construction for minors. However, we should also attach great importance to the new problems in innovation, tap their uniqueness, find solutions, and build emerging carriers into stable and effective working platforms to better serve minors.
According to the above analysis, combined with investigation and study, we believe that the carrier innovation of ideological and moral construction of minors under the new situation should follow the following four basic principles:
1, the innovation carrier must adapt to the actual needs and strive to reflect the times. The formation of minors' ideological and moral quality can not be separated from our times. Carrier innovation should be based on the requirements of the current new situation and new tasks, and through carrier construction, while persisting in carrying forward the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation, we should vigorously carry forward the spirit of the times, so that new ideas, new morals and new concepts that adapt to the development of reform, opening up and socialist market economy will be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
2. The innovation carrier must adhere to the dominant position and pay attention to regularity. To do a good job in ideological and moral construction of minors, we need to give full play to the main role of minors. The carrier of innovation should proceed from the reality of minors' growth, respect, understand and be close to minors, firmly grasp the key links that affect the formation and development of their ideological and moral concepts, improve the carrier of innovation education, and give targeted ideological guidance, academic guidance, life guidance and psychological counseling.
3. The carrier of innovation must highlight experiential education and enhance its effectiveness. Experiential education is the process for minors to receive education through practice and the basic way to shape their character. The carrier of innovation should highlight the content and form of innovative experience education activities, combine education with emotion, rationality and life, and let minors internalize the basic principles of being a man and doing things into healthy psychological character and turn them into good behavior habits through personal experience and real feelings.
4. The carrier of innovation must focus on the steady progress of work and constantly improve the new leadership mechanism and operation mechanism. At present, we should focus on how to form a strong overall coordination mechanism, so that all relevant departments can perform their duties and form a joint force; How to form an effective supervision, inspection and incentive mechanism, and fully mobilize the enthusiasm and initiative of all social forces to support and participate in the ideological and moral construction of minors; How to form a sensitive information feedback mechanism, grasp the changing trend of social factors affecting the healthy growth of minors in time, and enhance the scientificity and predictability of the work.
Four. Concluding remarks
Teenagers are the most active and energetic force in the whole social force, and they are the future of the motherland and the hope of the nation. To strengthen the ideological and moral construction of minors and protect their healthy growth, we in Qi Xin need to work together, constantly explore and improve new service concepts and methods, and strive to create a brand-new world in the field of ideological and moral education for minors.
