Moral cultivation, and strive to become a moral, capable, and mature teacher as soon as possible. Let’s look at the basic content of teachers’ professional ethics.

The basic content of teachers’ professional ethics

1. Teachers love their jobs and are dedicated to their work.

Teachers’ dedication to work can be summarized into three levels of content:

(1) Emotionally - love for school, love for teaching, and love for students.

There is an emotional acceptance, even "fascination" for one's profession; there is a constant "complex" for the place where one engages in professional activities. You can connect your emotional world with the rise and fall of education and schools, worry about education, and rejoice in the joy of education.

Treat the school as your home and treat the students as your children, brothers and sisters. This emotion is the most fundamental source of motivation for dedication and dedication. This emotion is intrinsic and lasting, and will not easily fluctuate due to the level of teachers' professional remuneration or the severity of their conditions. Only when teachers love their profession can they respect their career and be proud of it; only if they love their job can they perform their duties with respect and be serious, dedicated and conscientious towards their students and their career. , fulfill one's duty.

(2) Concept - teaching and educating people.

Teachers’ love for their profession must be premised on understanding the laws of education, scientific thinking methods and a clear mind, otherwise this love will be blind and directionless.

Teachers’ love and dedication are not only reflected in paying attention to students’ learning and doing everything possible to improve students’ academic performance, but also in paying attention to cultivating students with good ideological and moral character, and in the educational nature of teaching activities. , reflected in caring for the inner world of students.

Teachers who are dedicated to their work should not only teach students to do things, but also teach students to be human beings, and cultivate students to develop the good moral character they should have in doing things and being human beings.

(3) Attitude - serious and responsible.

Teachers’ attitude towards work and students is a direct reflection of teachers’ love and dedication to their jobs. Zhu Xi, a famous thinker in ancient China, emphasized that "a dedicated person is dedicated to his or her profession." The objects of teachers' work are people, not things, and there is no room for any negligence. The influence of education touches the soul and leaves no room for carelessness. Any rashness, mistakes, and randomness in the education process will have a negative impact on students. Therefore, teachers’ professional attitude has no choice but to be “serious.”

Specifically: Teachers must conscientiously implement teaching routines at work and never do things half-heartedly. In terms of actions, they must be scientific and standardized, abide by rules and disciplines, be strict with themselves, and be a role model for others. In front of students, teachers have no personal behavior. Teachers' words and deeds are within the students' field of vision. Teachers should always pay attention to improving their professional image.

Loving one’s job and being dedicated to one’s work is generally divided into different states such as being happy with one’s work, being dedicated to one’s work, being diligent in one’s work, and being diligent in one’s work.

Loyalty - is based on a positive attitude, strong interest and deep love for the teaching profession in which one is engaged. Teachers who are happy with their work sincerely love education and students, regardless of salary or status. No matter how hard or tiring the work is, they enjoy it. They are excited about every bit of progress of their students, and they are emotional enthusiasts.

Dedication - is a positive attitude formed by teachers based on their rational thinking about their profession. Dedicated teachers establish their own world view, outlook on life and values ??based on their understanding of the nature, social significance and personal development significance of the teaching profession. Taking conscientiousness, meticulousness, and rigorous style as one's work criteria, this is a rational job-loving person.

Several levels of teachers’ dedication to work:

Model level of teachers’ ethics. "The spring silkworms will not be exhausted until they die, and the wax torches will turn to ashes before tears dry up." This is the extremely high state of teachers' ethics. They devote themselves wholeheartedly to the cause of teaching and educating people, work hard and enjoy it, and take the world as their goal in life. Taking the cultivation of outstanding talents as their own responsibility, being loyal to their duties, working silently, making selfless contributions, being role models for others, leading by example, being strict with themselves, determined to reform, and achieving outstanding results are a true reflection of their teacher's ethics. Although the number of teachers with such ethics is small, they have a greater influence and appeal among teachers, and they play a pioneering and exemplary role.

Excellent level of teacher ethics. "The belt gets wider and wider, but I don't regret it anymore. I feel haggard because of the loss of my clothes." Such teachers have a high level of teacher ethics.

The basic level of teacher ethics. Be conscientious and diligent.

In short, dedication and dedication reflect teachers’ pursuit of a positive outlook on life. Doing one's job conscientiously is the life attitude that every teacher should have, and it is also the basis for our requirements and efforts to educate students.

2. Teacher’s love (teacher’s love)

Teacher’s love for students is referred to as “teacher’s love”. Teacher ethics is the soul of teacher quality, and teacher love is the soul of teacher ethics. Therefore, it is said that teacher love is the soul of teachers.

Teachers should dedicate their entire hearts to their students, and they must insist on treating everyone equally and spread the sacred teacher's love evenly to every student. Enjoying the love of teachers is the need and right of every student. This is the sunshine, air and water for them to grow healthily.

To love every student is to understand every student. Understand their hobbies, talents, their personality characteristics, and their spiritual world. Only by understanding the characteristics of each student can we guide them to become complete people with personality, ambition and wisdom. Suhomlinsky said it well, if you don’t understand the student and his intellectual development, then you can’t talk about education if you don’t understand his thoughts, interests, hobbies, talents, talents, and tendencies. Understanding students is a concrete manifestation of loving students.

Teachers’ love for students is not a pure emotional process, nor is it a pure cognitive process. Some people define it as a psychological process of blending emotion and reason, a kind of kindness and kindness. psychological characteristics. Teachers' love for students is a symbol of perfection and ideal of the human soul.

Emotion is the prerequisite of teacher love. Teachers are active with students from morning to night, looking into their eyes during class, and communicating from time to time. Teachers feel happy when students can complete tasks according to their own requirements. These natural and innocent emotions are the basis for teachers to love students.

Reason is the direction of teacher love. There is no education without love. But it is far from enough for teachers to only have "love" and "dedication". Teacher love also requires teachers to respect students, understand students, understand students, and guide students. This is the correct direction of teacher love.

The integration of emotion and rationality is the guarantee for teacher love to realize the unique educational function. That is, the harmony of emotion and reason, the harmony of severity and kindness.

Teacher love is a two-way communication with an emotional effect. Loving students is a process of psychological harmony and vitality between teachers and students. When students receive teachers' love, they will also inspire love for teachers, which will be fed back to them, forming a two-way exchange of love. This affective effect produces good results. First of all, students will show conscious respect for teachers, be very willing to approach teachers, and hope to cooperate with teachers. It is the so-called closeness to the teacher; what follows is that the educational influence of the teacher is easily assimilated by the students, and the teacher's requirements are willingly accepted by the students. The goal of education is precisely in this two-way communication process. be realized. The more important effect of two-way communication of love is that it can sublimate teachers' personality and stimulate huge energy and potential to make people great and perfect.

Dedication and never forgetting the mission. Love means giving. Teachers' love is a kind of dedicated love that only cares about giving without asking for reward, only about students, and does not ask for anything in return.

Love, understanding, and respect for students are essential conditions for successful education, but they are not the ultimate goal of education. The love for students is ultimately reflected in being responsible for the future of students and the future of the nation. That is to say: love is an indispensable condition for the success of education, and it must ultimately be reflected in cultivating talents for society.

3. Teachers’ impartiality.

Teachers’ fairness is the fairness and justice shown by teachers when they treat different interests in educational activities. Teachers are involved in many interests in educational activities, such as: the relationship between teachers’ own investment and teachers’ income, the interests of teachers’ groups, the relationship between teachers and students, the relationship between teachers and students’ parents, etc. . To treat and handle these relationships correctly, we must use the basic ethical principle of justice.

The issue of teacher fairness is very relevant. Education is a systematic project that requires coordination and cooperation from all aspects. In the process of forming a good educational environment, it is very important for teachers to be fair to others and themselves. If teachers can treat parents fairly and respect, understand, and sincerely cooperate with each other, it will be conducive to forming a good external education environment. If teachers can treat their colleagues fairly and achieve unity and cooperation, it will be conducive to coordinating different educational functions and forming a good educational atmosphere.

Treating students fairly is the focus of teachers’ fairness. In a group, there are always good and bad students. If teachers cannot be fair, prefer good students, and discriminate against poor students, it will often cause chaos in the education and teaching order, which is not conducive to the development of normal educational activities. The fairness of teachers determines the role of teachers in students. Students have high expectations for teachers’ impartiality. Whether a teacher is fair or not is closely related to the teacher's image in the minds of students.

Teachers’ impartiality can promote the formation of a good class body and help mobilize the enthusiasm of all students for learning. Teachers' injustice will make students doubt the rationality of justice, and justice itself is an important connotation of moral education. In the long run, teachers' injustice will definitely affect students' moral growth. Teachers' fairness is the core of educational justice, and educational justice is an important part of social justice. Therefore, teachers’ impartiality can contribute to the realization of social justice.
