0 1 The value orientation of exam-oriented education is the root of paid remedial classes.
First, under the single evaluation mechanism of the current college entrance examination, the pursuit of grades has naturally become the best choice for parents.
With the improvement of living standards in China, the intensity of family investment in education is increasing, and the competition for students' learning is bound to become increasingly fierce. As a rising tide lifts all boats, parents have higher and higher requirements for students' academic performance. Therefore, extracurricular training has also intensified.
Second, the failure of the current university system in China lies in the fact that the college entrance examination only focuses on the results.
With the popularization of education, China's universities have embarked on the road of merger and integration. As a result, the universities in China are highly similar, with vertical gradient competition and little horizontal differential development. Therefore, the admission of students from different institutions can only be based on the choice of high scores to low scores. Theoretically and practically, this university model is low-end. Almost all universities in China are comprehensive, and one university covers countless majors. However, the total amount of resources for school development is limited, and every major has to experience rain and dew, which restricts the development of every major. This is also one of the reasons why the professional ranking of China University is not ranked in the world.
Imagine if each university only offers dozens of majors in related fields. We can concentrate resources to develop vigorously, push the specialty to a deeper level and make the specialty reach the international advanced level. At the same time, it also makes different universities develop differently. Then, high school students' choice of universities will be diversified, and universities will inevitably weaken the scores of college entrance examination and pay more attention to the professional quality of students when choosing students. I think only by taking this road of development can China University truly realize its dream of becoming a powerful country.
Thirdly, behind the achievement-only theory of college entrance examination, it is also the embodiment of unfair distribution of market-oriented employment in China.
There are two main reasons why China has achieved rapid economic growth through reform and opening up. First, the transformation of labor capital, from direct inefficient agricultural production to relatively efficient material production. Second, the technological innovation brought by education investment has changed from backward and inefficient production to relatively efficient material production. However, due to the low education level of China's overall population, some talents in the low-end application production field are saturated, and talents in the high-end field are insufficient. As a result, the wage levels of employees in different fields in China are quite different. And this difference mainly depends on the competition of different university graduates.
In order to change the present situation of exam-oriented education, the state needs to start with the construction of colleges and universities and basic education at the same time in order to achieve results.
If we put aside the macro-environment of the country, we will analyze the reasons for paid remedial classes separately. There are the following points.
02 paid remedial classes have high returns and benefits. Teachers' salary has always been a hot topic among teachers, ranging from 3,000 yuan to 6,000 yuan a month. Compared with other non-teacher industries after graduating from universities at the same level, the overall salary level is lower. And make up lessons is much higher than the relative income.
Generally speaking, one-on-one remedial classes are about 200 yuan/hour at the municipal level and 300 yuan/hour at the provincial level. If classes are held to make up the missed lessons, it is generally at the prefecture level 150 yuan/hour, and at the provincial level in 200 yuan. This is a lower standard, and it is definitely higher in developed areas. According to this standard, if you make up 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon every Saturday and Sunday, there will be 8 hours in 2 days. According to the municipal charging standard, the one-to-one income is 1.600 yuan. Then there are 6400 around a month, only eight months in school a year, and 52200.
In winter and summer vacations, if you count four hours a day, 800 yuan is a day. The winter vacation and summer vacation are 30 days each, and the income of * * * is 48,000 yuan.
Then, the annual income of make-up teachers is at least 654.38+ 10,000. Running a class should earn hundreds of thousands of dollars. I didn't make up classes. I wonder if there are so many. This is my estimate.
If it is a training institution, it may be cheaper because of the large number of students. The income of teachers in training institutions should be similar to that of teachers' personal remedial classes.
Judging from extracurricular income, one year's income exceeds the normal salary of teachers. From the perspective of income efficiency comparison, make-up lessons may be 300% of the school's unit time income, which is very tempting. So some teachers are desperate.
Self-feeling, at present, the main reason is that training institutions make up more lessons, and then college students make up more lessons in winter and summer vacations.
As teachers, we should all know that students' grades mainly depend on their study habits and are not necessarily proportional to time. If you have bad study habits, the benefits of making up lessons will not be very high. In addition, many make-up lessons are fragmentary knowledge traps, so it is difficult for students to form a systematic knowledge system and really improve their grades.
In fact, the real schoolmaster seldom makes up lessons, and most of the students who make up lessons are below average. These students have problems with their study habits, and their make-up lessons are unstable. At first, they may have some effect, but after a long time, they will return to their original state. So for most students who make up lessons, the key is to guide them to establish normal study habits.
And because make-up lessons take up students' life time, it will inevitably have an impact on students' normal life. Everyone should have all aspects of life, such as study, entertainment, making friends, working and exercising, hobbies and so on. No one aspect will affect students' cognition, emotion and intelligence, thus affecting students' learning efficiency. Students who can really learn must also be people who participate in all aspects of life.
Some parents may also understand these truths. However, parents are highly nervous because of the huge pressure of competition for further studies. Seeing other people's children make up classes, I am afraid that my children will fall behind. In hesitation, people often have herd mentality and choose to make up classes.
Some teachers have lost their educational responsibilities. Teachers are ordinary people and have to support their families.
But I have always believed that teachers have a more important responsibility, that is, to cultivate the future of the country. In other words, teachers are born with a sense of mission and need a certain sense of professionalism. Of course, if the materials are sufficient. If it is not enough, we need to pay attention to dedication and not lose our responsibility for money.
Some people say that there is no contradiction between making up lessons and going to school. But also beneficial to students, which is something agreed by both parties. Why should it be banned?
This involves many deep-seated problems in education and needs a lot of space. I'll talk about it briefly today, and then write an article to demonstrate it later.
First, the pursuit of achievement is not a normal education, and the mode of strengthening training and pursuing achievement will stifle students' creativity. This is also the foundation of the national college entrance examination reform, from the cultivation of technical talents to the cultivation of creative talents. Many parents say that only looking at the results of the college entrance examination is the biggest channel for rural children to break the solidification of the class. This view is wrong, and the new educational model is definitely better. The country will not sacrifice its future development for the benefit of some people.
Second, even if we only pursue grades, squeeze students' time and carry out intensive training is not the best way. The best way is definitely the real emotion-oriented quality education (not the so-called quality education that many people think today, but a superficial understanding). However, this kind of education requires high quality of teachers, and many teachers may not be able to do it. Moreover, there may be some teachers who are unwilling to pay so much energy to do it. So I chose a relatively simple mode of long-term intensive training. From the essence of education, this is a manifestation of teachers' lack of responsibility or ability.
Third, any educational behavior must be accompanied by the transmission of values. The essence of teachers' making up lessons is for the benefit, so the act of making up lessons itself conveys a selfish idea to students. If students agree with the teacher's behavior of making up lessons, it makes sense to agree with selfishness. When students grow up and enter the society, they will inevitably use this selfish value to dominate their behavior.
Therefore, from the above aspects, teachers' making up lessons is an act that teachers lack educational cognition or lose educational responsibility.
Social media strengthens and distorts the concept of educational values. Now there are many online and offline paid trainings, and life skills training is also possible. Because people need skills to seek or enhance the capital for survival.
The so-called knowledge training for primary and secondary school students is misleading to students' values. The education that primary and secondary school students really need, on the one hand, is the healthy development of body and mind. The second aspect is to establish a correct understanding of life, nature and society. Although these are related to knowledge, the more important embodiment is a cognitive thought.
And training just erases thoughts and leaves only knowledge, which is putting the cart before the horse. This is like teaching people to pursue beautiful clothes and makeup, not spiritual cultivation. People educated in this way will be invisible and lack some personality and temperament.
Paid remedial classes are related to the media's pursuit of interests and malicious propaganda. As the carrier of the state and citizens' speech, the media has the responsibility to publicize correct and beneficial educational ideas. However, judging from the current media propaganda on education, there are too many misleading people. It only maliciously emphasizes the competition of maximizing interests, ignoring that only based on the development of the whole society can people be truly rich. Otherwise, only some people will make a fortune by trampling on others forever.
