What if the teacher is tired from work?
The sentiment of an ordinary teacher says that a teacher is the most glorious profession in the world. With such beauty, many people choose to be teachers without hesitation. However, with the repeated curriculum reform, the "teacher" in Han Yu's mouth became a "preacher" and gradually became a mentor in the process of learning. Some scholars even regard teachers as the same media as blackboard and chalk. But at the same time, teachers are labeled as "the main force of curriculum reform" and "the chief among equals". Education authorities have repeatedly called on teachers to become researchers, experts and famous teachers. In the constant orientation of teachers' roles, the phenomenon of teachers' job burnout has surfaced like a ghost. For the time being, don't care about those people who will eventually become famous teachers, but focus on those familiar figures who are still running around the campus. The embarrassment and helplessness we have experienced have made many people feel that the passion that has just stepped out of school has disappeared in the high-rise buildings of the city, and the lofty aspirations on the road have gradually disappeared. The hope of being full of peaches and plums has become indifferent, and the idea of being content with the status quo, doing nothing and muddling along has increased; Lovely students seem to get angry every year; Young teachers without professional titles are still trying to make several articles, whether downloading or copying, but they are still doing it. With all the titles in their hands, senior teachers seem to have no hope. Those who have the "ability" have also jumped ship. Forget those who are "incompetent" "Find a mixed word." So work is more and more like chicken ribs-tasteless to eat, but a pity to abandon. In fact, this is the symptom of teachers' job burnout. The engineer of the human soul-the teacher's own soul is suffering from the cruel impact of reality. Unfortunately, teachers have become a high-risk group of job burnout. According to the survey on teachers' occupational stress and mental health in China in 2005, organized by School of Public Administration of Renmin University of China, jointly conducted by Institute of Human Resources and Sina Education Channel, 86% of the teachers interviewed have mild job burnout, 58.5% have moderate job burnout and 29% have serious job burnout! This survey may not be accurate, but at least it shows a worrying trend. 1. In the new curriculum reform, teachers who have been in a passive position for a long time are flattered by the management setting of the three-level curriculum, but they are pleasantly surprised to find that the new curriculum requires teachers to re-examine teaching with a new eye. However, I'm afraid even the professor of the curriculum reform expert group can't tell you why. Teachers simply wear new shoes and go the old way in confusion. In the process of carrying out the new curriculum reform, the dispute between exam-oriented education and quality education reflects his constant influence in education, and also puts teachers in a dilemma. In order to adapt to various so-called reforms, teachers have participated in many "hard and expensive" trainings and exams, and you all know the effects during the period. What should teachers do? They are a little confused about this profession. As far as a class teacher's chores are concerned, there are morning self-study patrols, morning exercises, school at noon, afternoon self-study patrols, class accident handling and cleaning every day. In the absence of a school, there will be someone to check the points. There are also parents visiting constantly, and there are a lot of meetings such as school teaching and research activities, grade meetings and teachers' meetings. Get up early and come back late every day. I have to correct my homework and prepare for tomorrow's teaching when I get home. The teacher profession that I yearn for in my heart has changed a little. Prescription: Occupational value preservation The so-called occupational value preservation means that people have a longer-term interest in their careers and can invest for a long time without getting bored. The first is the question of balance. The enthusiasm at the beginning of a career can't cover up a person's life needs. Schuber's "Career Rainbow" clearly points out that people's roles in the whole career are not only workers, but also parents, children, idle people and so on. Ignoring any one of them may cause imbalance in career development. If you think about it carefully, you will understand that with a solid rear, changes in the frontier will not shake the foundation. In fact, for most people, the ideal job has more than one requirement, but it is difficult to find a job that fully meets the requirements. For example, the work of teachers is relatively stable, but many people feel that the salary is not high (the pay is not proportional to the gain), there is too much repetition, and there is a lack of challenges. However, being a secretary is boring; Doing sales is too hard; Want to start a business, there are risks; Learning psychology is a long process ... so, don't expect to have a perfect job. All you can do is: pick out good aspects from many unsatisfactory conditions to supplement your confidence, and think more about the benefits of being a teacher, such as relative stability. Although the salary is not high, it can't be considered low. Just like half a glass of water, some people will say "how come there is only half a cup" and some people will say "there is still half a cup". Second, long-term development. It is very important to establish a long-term career development goal for yourself. Because only by looking further can we not be tempted by what is in front of us. Temporary recognition and even temporary rewards are temporary, and the ultimate goal of your career development is the end you want to achieve. For example, what kind of coordination ability, management ability and professional knowledge do you want to have, and confirm the professional goals of teachers. Career planning is a process of constantly achieving established goals through actions. After setting a reasonable goal, we must take effective actions to achieve it. You can't act blindly. All actions should be guided by this professional goal, step by step, step by step. When making actions, we should first make clear the requirements of career goals, and then prescribe the right medicine for different requirements. Second, the torrent "brave" looked back at my colleagues and said that there is really no one who does not think that the extra pressure of the teacher is too great. Endless continuous training, not to mention a provincial, municipal, district and school level. Teachers don't seem to be idle, even in winter and summer vacations, all kinds of learning and training abound. In this case, how many teachers really want to catch their breath, because it is good to be busy and really don't want to squeeze out time from the little time left. Therefore, generally, after struggling desperately for entering the city or promoting professional titles, I really want to have a rest and it is rare to be quiet. I bravely chose to live in a down-to-earth way in the turbulent torrent, and regarded "teacher" as a career to support my family, and never dared to be a "career" again. Prescription: Effective Intervention of Self-efficacy Theory Self-efficacy theory was first put forward by American psychologist Bandura. Bandura's self-efficacy theory holds that self-efficacy refers to people's subjective speculation and judgment on whether they can successfully carry out some kind of achievement behavior, which includes two components, namely, result expectation and efficiency expectation. According to Bandura's self-efficacy theory, teachers' sense of efficacy is considered to be composed of two independent dimensions: teaching efficacy and personal efficacy. Teaching efficacy refers to teachers' expectation that teaching can affect students' learning, or teachers think that any teacher can exert his influence under the constraints of external factors such as family environment, family background or parents' influence; Personal efficacy refers to an individual's evaluation of his teaching ability, or a teacher thinks that he has skills and abilities that affect students' learning. Belief affects behavior. "If I work very hard, I can handle students with learning difficulties or low motivation." Efficiency expectation and result expectation complement each other, reducing teachers' pressure and increasing teachers' love for their profession. As far as schools are concerned, we should create a good environment for teachers and give them as much care as possible. Imagine that if a good teacher gets more attention and encouragement from leaders and peers, then he will continue to work hard because of honor, thus gaining more honors and more exercise opportunities, prompting him to constantly surpass the past and win new honors. On the contrary, teachers with average grades may lose confidence and motivation because they feel that they are not recognized. The former will make further efforts because of more honors, and then achieve greater achievements, thus growing rapidly. The latter may be idle, waste time, take everything as a task, and lose the initiative and enthusiasm of study and work. When you feel that work is a kind of happiness, you will never get tired of it. Third, the inertia of evaluation At present, the detailed rules of teacher evaluation are flawed in many places. Leaders often say that only by doing something can they take a stand. In reality, many of them have chain reaction and halo effect. Therefore, some teachers who are usually unknown and down-to-earth are often idle. In reality, many teachers see that they can't make achievements, and it's useless to do it. It's better not to do it. The inertia of performance, ability, motivation and morality finally contributed to the inertia of teachers. Prescription: The developmental evaluation of teachers' professional growth should reflect the humanistic spirit. Schools should change the one-sided evaluation method of quantifying teachers' working machinery, popularize teachers' developmental evaluation, let teachers experience their sense of accomplishment and success, and alleviate job burnout. This year, our school has newly issued the Implementation Plan for the Development Evaluation of XX Primary School Teachers' Professional Growth. According to the detailed rules, each teacher has determined the direction of development and the goal of his efforts from his own point of view. Obviously, teachers' enthusiasm for work has improved, and some even joked: not this year, try again next year. From this plan, we can see that the guiding ideology of this evaluation focuses on the following points: 1, self-concern: everyone's foundation is good or bad, and the level is high or low. Our evaluation focuses on self. It is a vertical comparison of self-level and does not need to be compared horizontally with others. In order to eliminate the fear of comparing with excellent teachers. 2. Focus on the process: Our evaluation focuses on the process. It focuses on the process of self-learning, self-reflection, self-education and self-improvement. Only in this way can we eliminate the slack mentality of not making progress. 3. Focus on development: Our evaluation focuses on development. As long as your index score is improving (no matter how low your index achievement level is), you can get high marks in your index evaluation; As long as your overall level of professional growth is developing (no matter your current level is still so low), you are a good teacher. In order to eliminate the inferiority complex of people with poor skills. The following is a concrete evaluation of our school (omitted). Kim Kagan believes that psychological crisis contains opportunities for development. I believe that with my own efforts, every teacher who is engaged in this glorious profession can also have a "brilliant" bright mood, thus successfully passing through the meaning of burnout and entering a brand-new procedure.
