[Keywords:] professional ethics; University teachers; Teach knowledge and educate people.
Teachers are called &; Ldquo, the engineer of human soul &; Rdquo shoulders the sacred responsibility of teaching and educating people, and teachers' professional ethics is the soft power of educational development. Teachers' professional ethics is not only related to the healthy growth of teenagers and the cultivation of all-round high-quality talents, but also related to the future destiny of the country and the future development of the nation. At present, there are some unhealthy phenomena among college teachers, such as neglecting education, academic anomie and academic corruption, which are contrary to the professional ethics of college teachers. Therefore, in building a harmonious socialist society, we must give full play to the role of educational soft power, cultivate all-round high-quality talents and improve the level of teachers. We must analyze the problems and causes of the current professional ethics of higher education, explore the professional ethics that university teachers should have, create countermeasures to sublimate the professional ethics of university teachers, and open up new ideas.
First, university teachers should have professional ethics
The main duties of university teachers are teaching and educating people, scientific research and serving the society. Its professional ethics is the moral norms formed in long-term professional activities, as well as the corresponding moral views, moral sentiments and qualities. There are not only the requirements of real society, but also the inheritance and development of traditional professional ethics, which includes three levels:
(a) love their jobs and dedication.
University teachers must first abide by civic ethics. The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China's Resolution on Several Important Issues in Strengthening the Construction of Socialist Spiritual Civilization points out that it is necessary to: vigorously advocate the professional ethics of being dedicated, honest and trustworthy, fair and just, serving the masses and contributing to society; rdquo。 Among them, love and dedication are the general requirements for people's work attitude; Honesty and trustworthiness is the basic principle of dealing with people and social interaction; Doing things fairly is a character of being a man and a working principle; Serving the masses is the value orientation and style that people should have; Dedication to society is the realm of socialist professional ethics. Citizen's moral standard should be the general requirement for university teachers' professional ethics.
(2) lead by example.
As educators, university teachers must have a code of conduct. Education is a public product with public welfare and should be supervised by the public. Teachers' words and deeds should be concerned by the majority of students. In people's minds, teachers should be noble, knowledgeable and exemplary, otherwise it is difficult to teach people. The image of teachers in people's minds is an ideal and pursuit of human moral perfection, and it is an honor to assume this expectation as a teacher. It should be said that all teachers should be loyal to the cause of the party, teach and educate people wholeheartedly, not be tired of fame and fortune, and devote themselves to the cause. If you choose the profession of teacher, you must have the ethics of people's teachers and do something different.
(3) The professional ethics of university teachers has its particularity. Mainly manifested in:
1 Pursuing the perfection of personality.
The professional ethics of university teachers is essentially a personality problem. Teachers' occupation is to cultivate personality with personality and mold soul with soul. The main target of university education is college students, whose world outlook, outlook on life and values are in a critical period of formation, so it is particularly important to learn to be a man. Educator Mr. Tao Xingzhi put forward:&; Ldquo Thousands of teachers in Qian Qian teach people to seek truth, while thousands of students in Qian Qian learn to be human. & amprdquo The cultivation of students' personality mainly depends on edification rather than preaching. Teachers' words and deeds will not only have a subtle influence on students, but more importantly, teachers' ideology will affect the formation and establishment of students' outlook on life and values.
In universities, teachers' noble personality is a professional requirement. American educator Boyle pointed out: I firmly believe that maintaining the value system of a school or college ultimately depends not on the curriculum, but on the personality of great teachers. Teachers' personality is manifested in many aspects: they have correct political beliefs and good political literacy, are politically sensitive, can distinguish right from wrong, and maintain a firm political stance on major issues; Can safeguard the interests of the party and the country, and have certain analytical ability to complex social problems; Have a correct world outlook, outlook on life and values, and a mind that dares to take the world as its own responsibility and does not care about personal gains and losses; Have good moral cultivation and sentiment, be honest, frank, consistent in appearance, not follow the trend, articulate, self-respect, self-respect and self-love. What universities need is this unique personality, and whether this personality can become the mainstream personality is the key to the success or failure of education and teaching. A team of teachers with noble morality, good at teaching and diligent in educating people is the soul of the development of school education.
Wide range of knowledge.
The students faced by university teachers have certain cultural literacy. Especially in the knowledge economy society, new knowledge appears frequently and spreads rapidly. As the most active group, students have a strong thirst for knowledge and preliminary knowledge. University teachers should not only master their own professional knowledge, but also master other knowledge to show &; Ldquo is a teacher &; rdquo。 In other words, teachers' profound knowledge can make students admire, have prestige and have good teaching effect. The teaching profession is a continuous learning profession. Teacher ldquo preaches, teaches and dispels doubts & rdquo. A teacher must know first. Where is the ldquo Road, the teacher is there &; rdquo。 From ancient educators to modern master Tao Xingzhi, they all have profound knowledge, rigorous attitude towards learning and endless spirit of learning, and become models for teachers.
With the spirit of academic exploration and innovation.
As a high-knowledge group, university teachers should have higher pursuit in teaching and scientific research, supported by scientific spirit, conscious academic belief and perseverance; The scientific attitude of seeking truth from facts is not only in books, but also in innovation; Don't be seduced by profit, don't be confused by name, and keep a scholar's demeanor. Pursuing knowledge, advocating science and pursuing truth is one of the qualities that university teachers should possess.
He has distinctive cultural characteristics and is the disseminator and creator of excellent human culture.
On the one hand, university teachers use their own values and personal experiences to select, digest and absorb the culture accumulated by human beings for a long time and spread it to students and people; On the other hand, explore the unknown, engage in spiritual production activities, and create a new culture through exploration, reflection and criticism. Knowledge from different fields meets together and becomes the foundation of university culture. Teachers are carriers and disseminators of human culture. Under the environment of advocating academic freedom in universities, national culture has been enriched and sublimated through the dissemination of knowledge and the creation of culture, which has played a role in promoting the accumulation of human culture and the progress of social civilization.
Second, the professional ethics of college teachers
At present, the professional ethics of university teachers are being tested. Some teachers have weak political and ideological concepts, wavering beliefs, serious utilitarian tendencies, weakened scientific spirit, lack of professionalism and rigorous academic attitude, and lack of collective cooperation spirit and hard work style. The main reasons for these problems are:
1 From the planned economy system to the market economy system, the diversification of economy has caused the diversification of ideas. In addition, social politics is at a loss, there are many uncertain factors in economic life, and ideas change rapidly.
Some teachers have outdated ideas and have not learned to face the new situation of market economy. Some teachers have strengthened their subjective consciousness, but they have no serious choice to change their ideas, but they are self-centered and go their own way.
Feudal consciousness has a deep foundation in our country, which limits people's vision, mind and choice of communication methods, and is easy to be narrow-minded and stubborn in understanding problems. This has led some teachers to pay more attention to reality and lack high-level spiritual pursuit.
3. Value orientation pays attention to profit and forgets righteousness.
The existing knowledge system and ideas are impacted by western cultural thoughts, and some teachers begin to re-examine professional ethics. In terms of value orientation, it values profit and forgets righteousness. department
Sub-teachers have abandoned the traditional teachers' morality and ignored the candle spirit and selfless dedication of teachers. In the market economy, values are distorted, and there are phenomena such as unreasonable fees for education, running classes in disorder, and enrolling students in violation of the national macro plan, which leads to academic certificates and even graduate certificates flying all over the sky. The extreme values of some teachers greatly interfere with the normal teaching order, resulting in the strange phenomenon that the academic qualifications do not match the actual diplomas.
4 their own shortcomings.
Nowadays, some university teachers have experienced &; Ldquo "& rdquo extreme. With the impact of left rdquo politics, life has experienced the twists and turns of personal ideals and disillusionment, and the adjustment of diversified interest relations. Because they don't adapt to the changes in the market economy, they have adopted a conniving attitude towards themselves. Another part of young teachers walked from the school gate to the school gate. They don't know much about society and refuse to suffer. Although they have a strong desire for success, they are often eager for quick success and grandiose style because of their lack of experience. They lack the spirit of delving into business and exploring deeply, so they can't learn from each other.
5. The influence of negative social factors.
Corruption and unfair distribution in society are reflected in schools, and some teachers are psychologically unbalanced, gradually generating negative emotions, relaxing their demands on themselves and tending to put personal interests first.
6. The dislocation of the school in management.
Some schools tend to be administrative and market-oriented in management to varying degrees, and their main energy is not in teaching, but in daily affairs. The leading consciousness of teaching is not strong, and it often works passively and ignores being a teacher.
Third, thinking about improving the professional ethics of college teachers.
The 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China emphasized: giving priority to the development of education and building a powerful country with human resources. At the same time, it is pointed out that it is necessary to fully implement the party's educational policy and adhere to the principle of educating people and putting moral education first. In view of the present situation of college teachers' professional ethics and the requirements of education and teaching, it is imperative to strengthen the construction of professional ethics. School administrators and teachers should face up to the existing problems, form a public awareness and everyone's participation, start from themselves and take practical and effective measures to make the construction of higher education teachers reach a new level. Mainly from the following aspects:
(A) the sublimation of personality.
Teachers should pay attention to their own personality cultivation, consciously learn all kinds of positive cultural knowledge and moral norms, draw nutrition from them, and internalize them as their duties. Personality is not formed overnight, so this kind of learning should become a habit and a way of life. From the school's point of view, it is necessary to create an atmosphere of personality improvement, stimulate teachers' internal requirements and motivation to improve their own personality, and establish quantitative indicators for the evaluation mechanism of teachers' performance, teachers' morality and study style. To urge and motivate teachers to strengthen the education of correct world outlook, only by taking the education of world outlook, outlook on life and values as the essence and core of moral education can we realize the key to moral education and make the cultivation of teachers' morality and teachers' morality constantly sublimate.
(2) Attach importance to humanistic spirit.
Teachers' professional ethics must be supported by humanistic spirit, and the humanistic spirit of a school determines the grade of professional ethics. Humanistic spirit does not rely on slogans, but on establishing people-oriented concept and multicultural atmosphere. Such as forming a relaxed and harmonious academic atmosphere, creating a better policy environment, giving full play to teachers' potential, creating conditions to improve teachers' humanistic quality, establishing a positive and tasteful campus culture, encouraging teachers' individuality, and so on. Highlighting humanistic spirit is conducive to the improvement of teachers' professional ethics.
(3) Broaden teachers' horizons.
Philosopher Jasper said: Communication is one of the sources of seeking truth. Only with this kind of communication can universities become a way to live for truth. Schools should create conditions to support teachers to expand various exchanges, such as attending meetings, training, organizing various lectures, visiting scholars, and organizing study tours. Teachers should also take every opportunity to go out and broaden their horizons.
(4) Further strengthen teachers' professional ethics education.
In addition to educating teachers to abide by professional ethics, we should also educate teachers on ideals and beliefs, improve the professional quality of university teachers, and enhance their sense of responsibility and mission. Guide teachers to be strict with themselves, cultivate high-quality talents to adapt to the all-round development of modernization, and establish a good moral demeanor.
On Teachers' Professional Ethics Part II: On Teachers' Professional Ethics
Teachers' professional ethics is the moral quality that teachers should follow in their work. Teachers' quality and accomplishment are not only the premise of teachers' development, but also the important premise of students' development. This paper comprehensively discusses the great significance of teachers' professional ethics construction, and puts forward the ways of professional ethics construction in combination with reality.
Keywords: teachers' professional ethics and teachers' love
Wang Guowei, a master of Chinese studies, talked about & ldquo; Three Realms of Life &; Rdquo has a wonderful exposition:&; The great cause of ldquo in ancient and modern times, the university questioner must go through the following three realms: last night, the west wind withered the green trees, went up to the tall building alone, and looked at the horizon. This first scene is also; I don't regret that my belt is getting wider and wider, which makes people haggard for Iraq. This second environment is also; Looking for him in the crowd, suddenly looking back, that person is in the dim light; So is this third place. & amprdquo's use of this language to describe the mental journey of engaging in education is also very appropriate. Just out of school, with textbook knowledge, full of ambition, this is the first situation; There are many problems and setbacks in actual teaching, which is the second environment; Tossing and turning, I suddenly realized that this was the third place. The third condition is to realize the true meaning of education: love.
Education originates from love, and love perfects education. Love is always the theme of mankind, and teacher love is the eternal topic of education. Teachers' love is one of teachers' ethics &; Ldquo soul rdquo & ampldquoshiai & rdquo； It is teachers' selfless love for students and the core of teachers' morality, that is&; The soul of teacher ldquo. . Teachers' infinite love for education is called dedication, teachers' concern for students is called love for students, and students' love for teachers is called respect for teachers and respect for morality.
Here we set the teacher's love as this formula:
This formula is expressed as follows: first, the love between teachers and students is equal and mutual respect, and teachers become good teachers and friends of students; Second, teachers' love for students is rewarding and interactive. Teachers spur and motivate students to study hard and make continuous progress.
The famous educator Suhomlinski once said:&; Ldquo emotion is like fertile land, on which the seeds of knowledge are sown. & amprdquo When a student is fully respected and understood and can express his feelings without scruple, he can grow up completely.
The object of our teaching is a group of naive, lively and emotional children, which requires teachers to put students on an equal footing with teachers, rather than teaching with dignity. For example, there is a phenomenon that many students will call out their teachers kindly when they see them on campus or on the road. Hello, Teacher ldquo &; Rdquo, but some teachers turn a blind eye to bicycles,&; Ldquo Go Forward &; rdquo。
This leads to students' silence when they meet their teachers in the future, which violates the laws of education and seriously dampens students' enthusiasm and self-esteem. Furthermore, as a model of teenagers' moral cultivation, teachers should strengthen their own moral cultivation, and their love for students should be reflected in their usual words and deeds. A smile, a nod, a gesture and a greeting can all reflect the teacher's encouragement, praise, affirmation, care and support for the students. Therefore, teachers should seize every opportunity and give full play to their role of demonstration, guidance and education.
If you love students, students will love you, like you, like the subjects you teach, and even like their own schools. On the other hand, if teachers don't pay attention to their moral image and love students from the heart, how can students like the subjects you teach? What some students call subject &; Ldquo & rdquo If the Chinese exam is excellent but the math fails, can it be said that the student has an IQ problem? No, it is likely that students are not interested in your teacher and the subjects you teach. He doesn't like you, so he doesn't like the subjects you teach.
So how should teachers get along with students? & Mr. Xingzhi once warned teachers: ldquo, there is Watt under your pointer, Newton in your cold eyes and Edison in your hungry smile. & amprdquo From the perspective of love, a teacher should be a good teacher and friend of students. If a teacher loves education, loves your students and does his duty, your career will be more than half successful.
I remember a classmate I taught, Sue, who had a high IQ, but was naughty. Since he took over this class, he scored 92 points in mathematics, but in the next two unit tests, he only scored more than 40 points. He didn't listen to the lecture in class, handed in his homework on time and didn't do it. After discovering this problem, I talked to him for the first time, but he ignored me. As a result of the conversation, the ideological problem has not been fundamentally solved.
Later, I learned from other students that it was because I disliked his poor handwriting that I simply and rudely tore up his homework and asked him to copy it 50 times. This caused him not to like me, and he was not happy to learn math, so he wanted my math score to count down in the grade. Knowing this situation, I bought some new books and a pen, took him home, had a heart-to-heart talk with him, admitted that it was wrong for the teacher to tear up his exercise book rudely last time, and seriously instructed him to write well, make up his math homework, and was willing to make friends with him.
From then on, he can listen carefully in class and do his homework carefully. In every exam, his Chinese and math scores are excellent, and his classmates also choose him as the team leader. Practice has proved that the above-mentioned identity of Shi Ai is established. Teachers can respect and love students, and students love teachers, subjects and learning, and teachers' love will be rewarded.
What and how to train people is the fundamental problem of education. Hu Jintao emphasized:&; The core of ldquo's comprehensive implementation of quality education is to solve the major problem of who to train and how to train people, which should be the theme of education. & amprdquo implements this concept, as Minister of Education Zhou Ji said: Education is the foundation of a century-long plan; Teachers are the foundation of education. Without high-level teachers, there will be no high-quality education. Improving the quality of education is related to the development of the whole education and fundamentally depends on the quality of teachers. The core of the construction of teachers is the construction of professional ethics.
Teachers' professional ethics is the moral quality that teachers should follow in their work. Teachers' quality and accomplishment are not only the premise of teachers' development, but also the important premise of students' development. Teachers are not only builders and disseminators of socialist spiritual civilization, but also moral demonstrators and transmitters of students. Therefore, teachers' morality is not a simple preaching, but a manifestation of spirit, a profound knowledge connotation and cultural taste.
The times put forward higher requirements for teachers, especially the implementation of the curriculum reform of basic education, and the teacher profession has encountered unprecedented opportunities and challenges. Confucius, The Book of Rites? Persuade "say&; Ldquo is not enough to learn, but difficult to teach. If you don't know enough, you can turn your back on yourself. Advance despite difficulties, and then strive for self-improvement. & amprdquo We should take the challenge as an opportunity, keep learning and making progress, and implement the construction of professional ethics.
