Some thoughts on educational problems

Reflections on how to improve the quality of education and teaching

In recent years, under the correct leadership of the county party committee and the county government, the teachers and educators in the county are determined to forge ahead, work hard with heavy burdens, step by step, the educational outlook is changing with each passing day, and the teaching quality is steadily improving. After the new leaders of the county party committee and government took office, they began to pay attention to education early, had a strong sense of respecting education, took practical measures to promote education, and created a good atmosphere of worshipping education and learning in a short time. The education authorities have made great efforts to make the teaching atmosphere in the industry smooth and the external environment improved significantly. Last year, the convening of the county-wide education work conference and the promulgation of the five-year work plan for educational development in Huichang County pointed out the direction for education in our county. It can be said that Huichang's educational development has entered a golden age of improving quality and increasing efficiency and leaping development. As an educator, I deeply feel the glorious mission and sacred responsibility of education. I would like to take this opportunity to talk about my personal views on how to improve the quality of education and teaching.

First, pioneering and innovating, grasping the thin tube, paying close attention to implementation and demanding quality from scientific management.

Management system is the basic pillar of school management system, and it is also the institutional guarantee to ensure the orderly and efficient operation of all school work. Science and innovation are the inherent requirements of management system. With the deepening of education and teaching reform and the continuous advancement of new curriculum experiments, the original management system is difficult to adapt to the new situation and new requirements, so it is imperative to adjust, enrich, improve and innovate the management system. Innovative management system should proceed from the reality of the school, reflect the requirements of scientific and sustainable development, and highlight people-oriented, fairness and efficiency. A good school not only has a perfect management system, but also lies in the fact that these systems can be truly put in place and the faculty members have a strong sense of governing the school according to law. School management should realize three changes in management concept: from extensive macro-management to refined management, from scale expansion to connotation development, from focusing on hardware construction to enhancing the soft power of campus culture; In terms of management methods, it is important to start from the basic grade, from the first day of school, from getting up every day, and from every link; In the form of management, it is in charge of the mouth, responsible at all levels, with people doing things and people doing things, standardized management and scientific development.

Second, change ideas, improve teaching methods, improve efficiency and put forward quality requirements for classroom teaching.

For a long time, many teachers have outdated teaching methods, single means and no vitality in teaching; It is very common to follow the script, and teaching is not targeted according to students' aptitude; Students' dominant position is not reflected, the requirements of autonomous learning, cooperative learning and inquiry learning are not implemented, the classroom atmosphere is dull, the learning efficiency is low, and students have no interest in learning. Classroom teaching is the main channel for students to acquire knowledge. Classroom is the main battlefield for teachers and students to teach. It takes 45 minutes, but the efficiency of a class can be expanded infinitely. There is no fixed teaching method, but there is an excellent teaching method. No matter the school leaders or teachers, they should firmly sing 45-minute battle songs and actively explore effective ways of classroom teaching. The wonderful and efficient 45-minute class comes from the careful preparation of 45 minutes before many classes, and also incorporates the reflection and understanding of previous teaching. Only by pouring sweat into every link of teaching can classroom teaching bear efficient fruits. Both "learning before teaching, classroom training" in Yang Si Middle School and "336" teaching experience in Dulangkou Middle School highlight students' dominant position in classroom teaching, and advocate and cultivate the spirit and ability of autonomous learning, cooperative learning and inquiry learning. This teaching mode has brought about subversive changes in the position and function of teachers, classrooms and lesson plans: the position of teachers has changed from "teaching" to "guiding" teachers. This teaching mode is to organically combine the three aspects of "teaching, learning and practice", and improve students' self-study ability and test-taking ability through intense, efficient and orderly classroom teaching, so as to maximize classroom efficiency.

Three, overall arrangement, full rotation training, step training, to develop the quality of teachers.

In recent years, with the expansion of school scale, the number of teachers has been increasing, especially young teachers. The structure of teachers is not reasonable and the level of teachers is uneven. Young teachers are full of energy and enthusiasm, but they lack teaching experience, immature teaching methods and unsystematic professional knowledge, so it is difficult to undertake important teaching tasks in a short time. Some teachers have lost their enthusiasm, sense of responsibility, outdated knowledge, outdated methods, lack of enterprising motivation and sense of crisis after their senior titles. Teachers are the first resource for the development of education and teaching, and what kind of teachers there are will teach what kind of students. The quality of teachers directly determines the level and quality of education and teaching. Therefore, the school should build a teacher professional development mechanism that conforms to the actual situation of the school and improve the professional level of teachers in an all-round way. We believe that teachers' development can be promoted by implementing the "five major projects". First, implement the three-year all-staff training project to comprehensively improve the professional quality of teachers. The second is to implement the "blue-blue" twinning project to promote the professional growth of young teachers. The third is to implement the "Five Ones" project for senior teachers (presiding over or participating in a project, writing a high-quality paper, tutoring a teacher, giving a demonstration class and making a special report during school) to promote the professional level of senior teachers to a higher level. The fourth is to implement the demonstration project of academic leaders and give full play to their leading, demonstrating and radiating roles. The fifth is to implement the cascade training project of famous teachers and form a cascade training model of school-level famous teachers-county-level famous teachers-famous teachers above the city level.

Fourth, raise awareness, synchronize learning with thinking, combine teaching with scientific research, and make teaching and scientific research quality.

At present, the phenomenon of teaching without learning, teaching without thinking and teaching without research is common, and the teaching and research atmosphere is not strong. Teachers often have only two books when preparing lessons, one is a textbook and the other is a reference book. The quality of preparing lessons is not high, and there is no reflection and summary after class Teachers write papers and engage in projects for the needs of promotion and evaluation of professional titles, and only pay attention to reports and ignore the conclusion. Even if there is a conclusion, it is often difficult for them to have their own ideas and innovations, let alone show their achievements and popularize their experience. Schools should be upgraded, schools should be more efficient, teaching should be better and teachers should be better, all of which are based on the word "research". We should make a big fuss about research and do a good job. Teaching research should be closely integrated with daily teaching work, closely surrounding the new problems and new situations in teaching and curriculum reform, taking the effectiveness of classroom teaching and students' ideological education as the main content of research, optimizing teaching methods and improving learning efficiency as the main direction of research, taking the optimization and upgrading of topics as the goal, taking the effectiveness of topics as the foothold, unifying thoughts, raising awareness, vigorously advocating research-oriented schools, vigorously promoting teaching research, and striving to achieve everyone's topic, everyone's paper, materialization and experience.

Five, reflect the characteristics, pay attention to taste, improve the function, and demand quality from the cultural construction.

Campus culture is the soul, image and connotation of a school. Campus culture is rich in content, including spiritual culture, material culture, institutional culture and activity culture. The construction of campus culture should be combined with the spirit of the times, the red culture in the central Soviet area and the traditional Hakka culture in southern Jiangxi, reflecting the requirements of the times, local characteristics and school reality. To enrich campus culture, we should constantly expand and enrich school-running concepts such as school purpose, school motto, school spirit, teaching style and study style. Use websites, window, blackboard newspaper, radio, school newspaper and other propaganda tools to vigorously publicize the advanced deeds of outstanding teachers and students and encourage teachers and students to keep forging ahead. Enrich campus culture, and often hold teachers' forums, teaching competitions, special reports, academic lectures and other cultural and sports activities to enrich campus cultural life. Carry out reading month activities and build a learning campus and a scholarly campus. To enrich campus culture, we should attach importance to the construction of campus cultural landscape, and make students deeply impressed by flowers, trees, celebrity statues, landscape stones, windows, publicity columns and so on. Set up civilized language boards, warning signs and school-running ideological propaganda walls in conspicuous positions on campus, and hang celebrity calligraphy and painting, class discipline training and inspirational quotations in classrooms, corridors and stairs to improve the charm of environmental culture and enhance the function of environmental education. Create a pleasing campus environment and high-grade campus culture with elegant taste, outstanding characteristics and distinctive personality for teachers and students, and promote the harmonious development of students, teachers and schools.

The good wind sent me to Qingyun. The next few years may be the fastest time for Huichang education to develop, or it may be the best opportunity for Huichang education to get rid of the backward hat and catch up. As an educator in Huichang, we should seize the opportunity, face difficulties, improve our quality and promote leap-forward development with a sense of urgency, a sense of responsibility and vigor.
