[Paper Keywords] teaching; Scientific research; The relationship between teaching and scientific research
Abstract: Teaching and scientific research are the basic tasks of college teachers. Through several years of teaching and scientific research practice, the author has a deeper understanding of the relationship between teaching and scientific research of college teachers. This paper mainly introduces the author's learning experience and experience.
1. Introduction
The relationship between teaching and scientific research is an eternal topic in the development of universities. In different environments, the relationship between teaching and scientific research has different characteristics. Teaching and scientific research are the two most important functions of colleges and universities, but there has been a big contradiction between these two functions for a long time, and the phenomenon of attaching importance to scientific research and neglecting teaching is widespread. How to coordinate the contradiction between them, not only highlight the main melody position of teaching, but also strengthen scientific research is a problem that college teachers need to solve at present.
2. Theoretical exploration of the relationship between teaching and scientific research
2. 1 Teaching and scientific research are dialectical unity.
Different scholars hold different views on the relationship between teaching and scientific research. To sum up, there are mainly the following three schools of thought:
(1) Teaching and scientific research are negatively correlated. There are three theoretical models that think that teaching and scientific research are negatively related, namely, scarcity model, personality difference model and different incentive system model.
(2) There is a positive correlation between teaching and scientific research. There are two theoretical models that think there is a positive correlation between teaching and scientific research, namely, traditional wisdom model and G model.
(3) There is no correlation between teaching and scientific research. There are three models that think that there is zero correlation between teaching and scientific research, namely, different activity model, irrelevant personality model and bureaucratic funding model.
The above viewpoints discuss the relationship between teaching and scientific research from different angles, but the author thinks that the relationship between teaching and scientific research is a very complicated issue, which needs comprehensive analysis. What we call the coordination between teaching and research is not just a simple 50-50 split. But according to their own conditions, rational layout, adjust measures to local conditions, and focus on * * * to cooperate with development. There are more scientific research achievements than teaching achievements, which does not necessarily mean that teaching is not good. In this sense, the relationship between teaching and scientific research should be unified, complementary and mutually reinforcing. Teaching is the foundation of scientific research, and scientific research is the development and improvement of teaching. Scientific research and personnel training depend on each other, promote each other, complement each other and develop together. The combination of the two is the best way to optimize the allocation of resources and develop science and technology education. Teaching and scientific research are the means, and cultivating talents and innovative knowledge is the purpose. Only educated people can promote the progress of scientific research, and scientific research can also promote the cultivation of talents. Their internal relations have formed a virtuous circle.
2.2 The role of scientific research in promoting teaching
(1) Scientific research is an important way to improve the level of college teachers.
Teachers in colleges and universities can always master the development direction and latest achievements of their major through scientific research; Through scientific research, constantly update their knowledge structure, so as to constantly improve teaching materials, enrich teaching content and carry out teaching reform; With the source of scientific research, teaching will be handy, the content of the courses taught will be more vivid and informative, more attention will be paid to the organic combination of theory and practice, and the learning effect of students will be improved accordingly.
(2) Scientific research is an important guarantee for cultivating new talents.
First of all, college teachers constantly explore ways and methods to adapt to the new era of talent training through scientific research activities. Through continuous teaching practice and teaching reform, while learning and inheriting traditional teaching methods, teachers explore, improve and innovate teaching methods and means, and constantly explore and improve talent training modes and ways to adapt to the new era.
Secondly, some scientific research tasks undertaken by teachers create good conditions for improving students' scientific research ability, practical ability and spirit of unity and cooperation. On the one hand, students improve their scientific research level and practical ability by participating in scientific research projects undertaken by teachers, which provides a good topic for completing their graduation thesis; On the other hand, by participating in teachers' research, we consciously strengthen the cultivation of students' teamwork spirit.
(3) Scientific research is an important means to promote discipline construction and development.
Discipline construction is the foundation of the development of colleges and universities, the foundation and core of the construction of colleges and universities, and an important embodiment of the core competitiveness of colleges and universities. A large number of scientific research achievements made by teachers are a powerful driving force for the development and take-off of discipline construction in colleges and universities, and an important guarantee for colleges and universities to achieve their overall goals.
(4) Teachers with high scientific research achievements are more attractive to students.
Teachers engaged in scientific research will make the school have a high reputation, which means that the school's ability to attract funds and excellent students has been improved. More funds and excellent students are an important basis for achieving high-quality teaching. Teachers who have made achievements in scientific research are more attractive to students, and their ideas, moral demeanor, scientific attitude and professional accomplishment all play a subtle role in improving students' moral character.
2.3 Teaching is the driving force and catalyst of scientific research.
(1) Teaching is the premise and basic condition of scientific research.
Scientific research activities have been tested by countless practices, resulting in theorems and laws, that is, theories. These theories have been compiled into university textbooks and become the teaching content of teachers. This understanding is the theoretical basis for further scientific practice. Through the transfer of knowledge, teachers' own theoretical level has also been improved, and even a new understanding has been gained. Teachers' theoretical level, knowledge structure, practical ability and creative ability determine the structure and level of scientific research team. Teaching not only raises questions for scientific research, but also provides ideas and technical routes for solving problems.
(2) Teaching is conducive to the further dissemination of scientific research results.
Teachers apply scientific research results to teaching, which enriches and optimizes the teaching content on the one hand; On the other hand, teaching can further spread, extend and regenerate scientific research results and give full play to scientific research value; Teaching practice can make teachers understand the basic knowledge more thoroughly, promote teachers' own understanding and reflection on the basic knowledge, and thus make teachers' research activities have a more solid foundation. At the same time, strengthening teacher-student interaction in teaching is conducive to activating students' thinking, and students' active thinking is also conducive to the development of scientific research.
3. Conception of coordinating the relationship between teaching and scientific research
3. 1 Strategies for coordinating the relationship between teaching and scientific research at school level
From the school level, coordinating the relationship between teaching and scientific research mainly starts with the renewal of ideas, the formulation and planning of macro policies, and the optimal combination of colleges. And take some operable measures to alleviate the double pressure faced by schools, and finally these measures will be implemented by departments and teachers.
(1) update ideas
Teachers' correct concept, correct attitude and positive work enthusiasm are the powerful guarantee for the coordinated development of the relationship between teaching and scientific research. First of all, we should adhere to the basic concept of talent training in universities. Secondly, teaching is redefined as a form of learning.
(2) Optimize policies and innovate management mechanisms.
The relationship between teaching and scientific research is dynamic. Universities need not only the change of ideas, but also the innovation of systems. Schools need to constantly develop and innovate interaction management mechanism and interest incentive mechanism. On the one hand, both teaching and scientific research reflect the academic level and establish an interactive mechanism at the academic level. ① In terms of organizational structure, the balance of the relationship between teaching and scientific research needs to establish a flow, which combines research institutes with teaching departments. ② To evaluate the quality and quantity of teachers' teaching, we should take some targeted measures: check teachers' lesson preparation and textbooks submitted by teachers, so that teachers' teaching content can be updated and better reflected. ③ To develop the potential of teaching and scientific research resources, it is necessary to improve the competitive incentive mechanism and interest mechanism. On the other hand, the school takes discipline construction as an opportunity to optimize the structure of teaching staff and promote the relationship between teaching and scientific research.
(3) Promote the division of labor and exchanges between teaching and scientific research schools.
Schools should publicize, exchange and learn from the systems and measures to coordinate the relationship between teaching and scientific research among disciplines, teachers and departments at different levels. In addition, strengthen the enjoyment of resources such as instruments and equipment, and promote the coordination between teaching and scientific research.
3.2 Department-level measures to coordinate the relationship between teaching and research
(1) Adjust teaching management
Schools should improve the treatment of teaching and scientific research at the same time, and the return of teaching is directly proportional to the efforts made in teaching, and increase the incentive policy for teaching; Do a good job in the construction of teaching style and study style, improve teaching quality, especially strengthen teaching supervision.
(2) Using secondary distribution lever to coordinate the relationship between teaching and scientific research.
Departments play a key role in dealing with the relationship between teaching and scientific research. In order to balance teaching and scientific research, colleges and departments should strengthen the connection in planning, structural adjustment and practice, and create the best environment for the combination of teaching and scientific research. According to the characteristics of the college and the individual differences of teachers, the college analyzes the different characteristics of different disciplines and sets up different teaching posts and research posts, which are reflected in the corresponding secondary distribution; Colleges and departments should formulate a reasonable secondary distribution system, and rationally quantify and rotate teaching posts and scientific research posts.
(3) Establish a coordination mechanism to promote the organic unity of teaching and scientific research.
Colleges should take some concrete coordination measures to deal with the relationship between teaching and scientific research. Strengthen the awareness and task of the college in this regard; Strengthen the connection between teaching and scientific research through discipline construction; Formulate feasible policies. Offering courses closely related to teaching and scientific research.
3.3 Ways to deal with the relationship between teaching and scientific research at the individual level of teachers
(1) Improve the teacher management system.
Schools need a fair, open and just competitive environment; Make fair use of its resources, especially human resources, and give full play to the potential of human resources. Leaders should show more humanistic care to teachers, understand their practical ability, and let teachers freely choose whether to apply for teaching posts or scientific research posts.
(2) Promote fair competition in teachers' scientific research.
Schools should provide a more favorable competitive environment and strengthen scientific research guidance and encouragement for young teachers. Of course, colleges and universities, big or small, can put scientific research in an important position. To solve the contradiction between teaching and scientific research, we should not only start with the renewal of ideas, but more importantly, innovate various systems to provide a fair competitive environment for teachers' teaching and scientific research.
(3) Strengthen teachers' moral cultivation
The assessment requirements not only pay attention to the quality of teaching and scientific research achievements, but also need to assess the cultivation of teachers' morality, because the promotion of the relationship between teaching and scientific research also needs noble teachers' morality to ensure, not only for the benefit, but also for the country to cultivate innovative talents. It is not only a passion for scientific research, but also a responsibility for teaching.
Teachers deal with all kinds of contradictions in the relationship between teaching and scientific research, in addition to technical problems, there are also moral problems, which requires teachers to have noble moral sentiments and handle the relationship between teaching and scientific research according to their own internal requirements.
4. Conclusion
The relatively balanced and coordinated relationship between teaching and scientific research is not formed spontaneously. Different teachers have different interests, abilities and other factors, and the relationship between teaching and scientific research is the same; The policies of management departments are different from those of supervisors, and they have different tendencies towards teaching and scientific research. Different majors, different disciplines and even different institutions are different. Therefore, the relationship between teaching and scientific research is a very complicated problem in colleges and universities. To promote the relative balance between teaching and scientific research, it is mainly to establish an innovative management mechanism, so that teaching and scientific research can be deeply integrated and play a common role.
Based on a comprehensive analysis of the dialectical relationship between teaching and scientific research in colleges and universities, this paper puts forward some ideas to solve the current contradiction between teaching and scientific research, which will help teachers to correctly treat the relationship between them in the future teaching and scientific research process and improve their level and ability.
