He devoted most of his life to books. Loving books, buying books, collecting books, reading, teaching and writing books are the main contents of his life.
Four Great Classical Novels in ancient China cultivated his sensitivity to Chinese and writing, and planted the seeds of literature in his heart. Let him become a pure literary youth.
In high school, Cheng Hongbing studied Song of Youth, Wildfire, Spring Breeze Attacking the Ancient City, Morning in Shanghai, How Steel was Tempered and the History of China Literature Development.
While working in the factory, he read many classic works by famous writers such as Turgenev and Mark Twain, and a lot of reading greatly improved his writing level.
He bought a lot of books when he was in normal school, and the collection of books at home has reached more than 20 thousand volumes, and books are everywhere. At that time, his favorite magazines were Xinhua Digest and Reading Magazine published by Sanlian Bookstore. He still subscribes and takes one with him on every business trip.
Uninterrupted reading and writing make him often uncover the symptoms behind various educational chaos with a critical eye. Faced with all kinds of educational chaos, he publicly called for the suspension of open classes, criticized the homogenization trend of primary and secondary schools, and criticized the modernization phenomenon in the process of running schools. This critical consciousness is largely inseparable from a book that has the greatest influence on him-Hegel's Little Logic. Rona's philosophy of art, Zhu Guangqian's psychology of literature and art, and the history of western art aesthetics also improved his logical quality, which made him develop the habit of thinking, pondering and paying attention to other examples or counterexamples. When he reads a book, if he thinks there is something wrong with it, he will record it and see if he still sticks to his original point of view after a period of time. If you still think what the author said is wrong, then collect information and write down the wrong places. Wei Shusheng, for example, was famous in Chinese teaching at that time and even in the whole field of basic education, but when he looked at it, he felt something was wrong. For example, Wei Shusheng's management mode of "everyone has something to do, everyone has something to do, and everything happens sometimes" is not to treat students as people, but an over-standardized management mode, which violates the laws of education. So he questioned in the article, which was approved by many people, even Wei Shusheng himself. Regarding the tendency of paying more and more attention to exams in high schools, he wrote that high schools are not pre-university classes, but should lay a foundation for students' life and spirit. His Critique of the Anti-modernization Phenomenon in Current School-running hits the nail on the head, pointing out that the current basic education is influenced by social thoughts. There are three kinds of pseudo-modern school-running behaviors: the modernization of school laboratories, the modernization of school environment and the modernization of educational slogans. The school has become a school with no history and no memory. He believes that the modernization core of school education should be the modernization of school cultural spirit, which is the foundation of the school and the power source of sustainable development.
Cheng Hongbing is an alternative principal who can insist on giving classes to his students. His Chinese scores in the class college entrance examination are always the first in the grade group, which makes his peers convinced. Mystery. In the final analysis, it was reading that brought him confidence, and it was reading that made his class harvest one surprise after another. Whenever Cheng Hongbing takes over a new class, he will assign special Chinese homework. One poem per lesson and one book per month. The practice of each Chinese class is to let students introduce a poem according to their student number, and then recite it by the whole class. Every month, he asks students to read a famous cultural book, which is recommended by him first, then by the students, and then selected by the students themselves. After three years, he and his students read dozens of cultural classics and planted the seeds of reading in their young hearts.
He said that the biggest problem of Chinese education now is that Chinese teachers have poor basic skills, do not read books, only read teaching references, have no humanistic accumulation, have insufficient understanding and analysis of texts, and have no knowledge gap with students. The core value pursuit of education should be embodied in the purpose of running a school, that is, for students' lifelong sustainable development and healthy and happy growth. The key to education lies in teachers. The foundation of guardian education is in the classroom.
Excellent teachers are always focused, in class, the heart is in education. Real teachers spend their whole lives studying, thinking and leading their peers forward.
He proposed that the way out for China education lies in China education and scientific experiments under normal circumstances. Chinese teachers and researchers majoring in Chinese education should settle down and engage in educational and teaching experiments in a down-to-earth manner, especially exploring scientific experiments in current Chinese education. More pragmatic, less pragmatic. Strive for scientific rigor and practicality. Don't spend all your energy on improving your eyesight, and don't expect to establish an educational model that can change everything. We should know that the exploration of Chinese education does not have to solve all the problems in a period of time. You know, some problems have been solved, some problems have not been solved today, and they may not be solved tomorrow. This is a scientific attitude and a realistic attitude. Only in this way can the problems of Chinese education be truly solved and the cause of Chinese education progress.
