Importance of strengthening mental health education for middle school students.
The Decision of the State Council Central Committee on Deepening Education Reform and Promoting Quality Education in an All-round Way clearly points out that it is necessary to promote quality education in an all-round way in the field of education. Strengthen students' mental health education, cultivate students' tenacious will and hard struggle spirit, and enhance the ability of teenagers to adapt to social life. ? Carrying out mental health education in primary and secondary schools is not only the need of students' healthy growth, but also the need of social development for human quality.
In recent years, due to various changes brought by social development, school education and children's development in China have been impacted and challenged. The survey shows that about15 children and adolescents in primary and secondary schools in China have psychological and behavioral problems of different degrees, such as weariness, truancy, stealing, lying, cheating, selfishness, willfulness, poor frustration tolerance, aggression, withdrawal, anxiety and depression. These psychological and behavioral problems not only seriously affect the healthy development of children and adolescents themselves, but also bring great troubles to the normal education and teaching work, directly affecting the completion of school education tasks and the realization of educational goals.
However, from the current situation, the psychological problems of middle school students have not attracted enough attention. At present, primary and secondary education pays more attention to students' academic performance, but ignores students' psychological development and needs. In the process of our education, we must talk about the senior high school entrance examination and the college entrance examination, and the enrollment rate has become the only purpose of school education. Academic performance is everything. From home to school, do you think that students do nothing but study? Business? The performance of. Some school comments? Miyoshi students? It's basically become? Good student? . Our moral education is often centered on learning and aimed at educating students. As a result, some students hate school, avoid studying and even have hatred.
At present, the problems of middle school students are shocking. All kinds of bad phenomena of school students have been repeatedly banned, and all kinds of out-of-control and deviant behaviors have occurred from time to time. There is a similar situation in our school. There are many reasons, but it has a lot to do with the low quality of students, especially the low level of mental health and poor psychological quality. Although psychological counseling rooms have been set up in primary and secondary schools for a long time, they all exist in name only, not to mention offering special psychological education classes.
? Ma Jiajue incident? Enough for us to think deeply about the psychological status quo of modern middle school students. What kind of talents are our goals? What standards are used to measure the success or failure of our education? What can be used to test the gains and losses of our education? In the new situation, we have to rethink this problem. If we only pay attention to the education of students' physical health, but not to the education of mental health, it will be extremely unfavorable to the healthy growth of students.
As far as the current situation is concerned, it is very urgent and meaningful to carry out mental health education in school education.
1. Mental health education for middle school students is the need to avoid all kinds of emergencies, maintain social stability, the normal operation of schools and the happiness of students' families. Paying attention to students' mental health education and timely counseling can make individuals in unbalanced or unhealthy state return to normal state, greatly reduce abnormal and abnormal maladjustment behaviors, reduce juvenile delinquency and abnormal events, maintain normal public order and order in schools and society, and ensure family happiness.
Second, paying attention to the mental health education of middle school students is the need to ensure the normal and healthy growth of students. Paying attention to the mental health education of middle school students can promote the success of students' academic career; Promote the formation of students' good moral character; Ensure that students live a normal and healthy life and develop into adults.
Thirdly, attaching importance to the mental health education of middle school students is the need of the characteristics of adolescent physical and mental development.
Adolescence is a very special stage. From childhood to adolescence, the individual's physical and mental development has undergone major changes. There are two kinds of needs that have an important influence on psychology and behavior; One is sexual demand, and the other is because of the all-round development of the body and the formation of sexual demand, teenagers have a sense of adulthood and a strong need for independence. Due to the above factors, it is particularly urgent to carry out mental health education for teenagers.
Fourthly, paying attention to the mental health education of middle school students is the need of the current social change period.
In the past two or three decades, some changes or factors that inevitably breed temporarily with social changes have had a negative impact on the psychological state of teenagers. Family and social environment have a great influence on the psychology of today's teenagers. Paying attention to and strengthening the mental health education of middle school students is not only very important, but also imperative.
To sum up, we can see that the mental health of middle school students can not be ignored, which lights up an early warning signal for us. As educators, we have the responsibility to shoulder this heavy burden. We can't just stay at the level of understanding and analyzing problems, but we should try our best to solve these problems and make mental health education more practical. Doing a good job in mental health education for middle school students is an important task of education in 2 1 century, and also an important guarantee for cultivating qualified talents in 2 1 century.
Research status of mental health education in primary and secondary schools in China
With the development of society, more and more attention has been paid to the mental health education of primary and secondary school students, which has a very important impact on the future development of students. Through the guidance of some policies and the current research situation of mental health education in primary and secondary schools, this paper points out the present situation and existing problems of mental health education in primary and secondary schools in China. Only by paying more attention to mental health education in primary and secondary schools and studying it carefully can we better help students develop in the future.

I. Introduction
At present, the mental health problems of primary and secondary school students have attracted increasing attention from all walks of life. Carrying out mental health education in primary and secondary schools is not only the need of social and times development, but also the need of students' all-round development and implementation of quality education. Mental health refers to people's positive and harmonious mental state, that is, an efficient, satisfactory and sustained mental state, including the harmony and coordination between internal psychological activities such as cognition, emotion and personality and external behavior.
At present, China is in a critical period of establishing a socialist market economic system and realizing the strategic goal of socialist modernization, and the social situation has undergone complex and profound changes. High-quality innovative talents needed for building a well-off society in an all-round way should not only have good ideological and moral quality, cultural quality, professional quality and physical quality, but also have good psychological quality. Primary and secondary school students are the cross-century generation and the hope of our motherland in the future. We should not only have a solid scientific and cultural foundation, but also pay attention to the cultivation of our own mental health, so as to develop ourselves in an all-round way. Therefore, the school should not only act as a disseminator of scientific and cultural knowledge, but also as a spiritual purifier for the cultivation of physical and mental health of primary and secondary school students, providing a good educational environment and methods for the cultivation of their mental health. How to guide primary and secondary school students to adapt to the new requirements in terms of concept, knowledge, ability and psychological quality as soon as possible during their growth is a new topic that schools need to study and solve.
Second, national policies.
Our government attaches great importance to mental health education. As early as 1994 "Opinions of the Central Committee on Further Strengthening and Improving Moral Education in Schools", it was clearly put forward to strengthen the mental health education of primary and secondary school students, and in 1999 "Resolution on Deepening Education Reform and Promoting Quality Education in an All-round Way", it was put forward that in the face of the new situation, due to subjective and objective reasons, our educational concept, educational system, educational structure, talent training mode, educational content and teaching methods are relatively. Promote quality education in an all-round way, respect students' physical and mental development characteristics and educational laws, and Party committees and people's governments at all levels should creatively implement quality education in light of local conditions. ? After the Ministry of Education 1999 issued the document "Several Opinions on Strengthening Mental Health Education for Primary and Secondary School Students", in September 2002, the Guiding Outline of Mental Health Education for Primary and Secondary Schools was issued, which provided clear and detailed regulations and guidance for mental health education in primary and secondary schools. The state's attention has greatly promoted the rapid development of mental health education. In this short period of more than 20 years, China's mental health education has achieved remarkable research results.
Third, the research status quo
The history of mental health education in Chinese mainland is short, but it has maintained a rapid and efficient development trend. At the same time, there are many problems such as weak foundation and low level. However, in the middle and late 1990s, the CPC Central Committee, the State Council and local governments successively issued a series of documents related to the development of students' moral education, which made all sectors of society pay more attention to the psychological health education of school students, and all kinds of related research showed an upward trend in quantity and quality. To sum up, the current theoretical circle is right? Mental health education for primary and secondary school students? The research direction of this subject mainly focuses on the following aspects:
(1) Analysis and research on the present situation, existing problems and countermeasures of mental health education in primary and secondary schools. For example: Research on the Problems and Countermeasures of Primary School Students' Mental Health Education (Zheng Shuoguo, 20 1 1 year), Present Situation and Development of Mental Health Education in Primary and Secondary Schools in China (Yu Guoliang, 200 1 year), Present Situation, Problems and Development Trend of Mental Health Education in Primary and Secondary Schools (Yu Guoliang, Wang Yongli,
(2) A comparative study of mental health education in primary and secondary schools at home and abroad. For example: "Research on mental health education in primary and secondary schools: a comparative study between China and the United States" (Xiao? Chan, 2005), A Review of Mental Health Education Models in Primary and Secondary Schools at Home and Abroad (Zhang Chong, Meng, 2006), A Comparative Study of Mental Health Education in Primary and Secondary Schools in China and the United States (2005), etc.
(3) Research on mental health education model in primary and secondary schools. For example, the study of mental health education model in primary and secondary schools under the background of new curriculum (Pan, 2007), the exploration of multiple models of mental health education in primary and secondary schools (Chen, 2007), the misunderstanding and countermeasures of mental health education model in primary and secondary schools (Qiu Yang, 2005), and the exploration of mental health education in primary and secondary schools in China from the perspective of traditional culture (Sui Lihua, 2065438+).
(4) Research on the present situation and development of mental health education teachers in primary and secondary schools. For example, the present situation and countermeasures of mental health education teachers in primary and secondary schools in China (Yan Haihui, 2003), Research on the professional development of mental health education teachers in primary and secondary schools (20 12), Research on the competency characteristics of mental health education teachers in primary and secondary schools (Yao, 201kloc-0/), and Mental Health in primary and secondary schools
(5) Research on mental health education curriculum in primary and secondary schools. For example, One of the School-based Courses of Mental Health Education in Primary Schools (Zhu Xiaomin, 20 10), Textual Research on the Curriculum of Mental Health Education in Middle Schools in China (Mu Hui, 20 10), Research on Some Theoretical and Practical Problems of the Activity Curriculum of Mental Health Education in Primary and Secondary Schools (Zhang Ying, 2002).
Four. conclusion
The research on mental health education in Chinese mainland started late, and the mental health education in mainland schools grew from scratch. Due to the attention of the state and the continuous research in various fields by people in the industry, mental health education in primary and secondary schools in China has made great progress. However, due to the uneven development between regions, school leaders attach different degrees of importance. At present, there are some problems and negative tendencies in mental health education in primary and secondary schools, such as outdated concepts, serious formalism, large regional differences, low overall level, weak teachers, lack of professional talents, low theoretical level, poor guidance and practice. Therefore, we should further strengthen the research on mental health education in primary and secondary schools in China, find out the shortcomings in organizational leadership, institutional construction, teaching staff, teaching work, consulting work, publicity and popularization work, and provide theoretical reference for better mental health education, provide basis for decision-making departments to formulate more practical mental health education policies, and continue to work hard to cultivate high-quality talents.
