Creating academic atmosphere and improving students' humanistic quality
-Speech at the Parents' Meeting in the Spring of 2007
Dear parents and friends,
Hello!
Thank you for your busy schedule to attend today's parent-teacher conference. This is not only a concern for children, but also a support for school work. Many parents, although we rarely meet, but our hearts are interlinked, all for the children. Parents are children's first teachers, and family education plays an important role in children's growth. Teachers are the guides for children's growth and have a profound influence on children's growth. Only by integrating family, school and society can children be better trained and fully developed. The topic of my speech today is "Creating a scholarly atmosphere and improving students' humanistic quality". When we hear that "students nowadays are worse than before" and "there are fewer and fewer students in this generation who respect teachers", when we see the sudden rise of juvenile delinquency, when we report that students beat their teachers and killed their loved ones ... these sighs beat many of our hearts like wooden sticks. Yes, why is there such a sense of loss in today's developed economy, smooth information and highly developed technology?
Nowadays, students can skillfully use the Internet. They will judge one by one, and their spoken English shows precocity beyond their age. But at the same time, it often shows some worrying phenomena, such as selfishness, lack of love and compassion, disregard for other people's feelings, self-centeredness, self-confidence but lack of due modesty, lack of sense of responsibility, and even "harming others and not benefiting themselves".
To sum up, we can easily find that knowledge is accumulating and intelligence is developing, but the humanistic quality has not kept pace with it. According to Professor Zhu Yongxin, the initiator of the new education reform, what is the lack of education in China? Lack of money, lack of things, lack of mechanism, lack of service awareness, but what is lacking most is humanistic spirit. " He believes in the view of Alain Pere, a French economist, and believes that the "spiritual temperament" of the people plays a key role in the development of a country and a nation, and its importance often exceeds material conditions. In his view, the modernization of China today is to realize the modernization of economy and people's life, and to realize this modernization, high technology alone cannot solve all the problems, and it is very important to improve the overall quality of the people, and humanistic quality is the core content of the national quality.
It can be seen that the improvement of humanistic quality plays a vital role in the current education of students and even the development of the country. So, what is humanistic quality? Humanistic quality is the temperament quality highlighted after people internalize what they have learned, as well as the noble ideological and moral character, stable psychological quality, good way of thinking, harmonious interpersonal communication, correct outlook on life and values.
We can also think that humanistic quality is the embodiment of temperament quality with humanistic spirit as the core and correct outlook on life and values. The study and internalization of knowledge is the premise of having a certain humanistic quality. Therefore, I put forward the topic of "creating a scholarly atmosphere and improving students' humanistic quality", that is, on the premise that students receive nine-year compulsory education and learn basic knowledge, by creating a scholarly atmosphere, students can be further guided to absorb the splendid culture of the motherland and improve their humanistic quality.
2. Analysis of the current situation
Due to the continuous updating of modern media, students receive knowledge from all directions, and there are many mixed channels. In order to pursue high profits, TV, comics and internet often win quick returns with visual impact. Lacking the conciseness of language and writing, the trickle of emotional growth filters out the accumulated cultural connotation. On the contrary, in order to pursue high efficiency and high return, minors are often unguarded, full of violent, pornographic and funny pictures, which satisfy the visual experience and also cast dust on the pure mind. We can't deny that these modern technological means have brought earth-shaking changes to our lives, but the negative impact is still obvious because children themselves lack sufficient judgment and conscious resistance. So many parents have taken measures to block these channels. If you don't know, but you don't, the child will have rebellious psychology. Coupled with the child's unique curiosity, it will prompt him to secretly watch or even imitate when his parents are away, and the consequences will be even more serious. Therefore, creating a scholarly atmosphere, diverting attention through reading, cultivating good interests and cultivating sentiment are all good ways to effectively guide people.
3. Existing problems.
"Reading has a great influence on people's growth, and a good book can often change people's life. A person's spiritual development history should be his own reading history; The spiritual realm of a nation depends largely on the reading level of the whole nation. " This is a passage from Sina Reading Online. April 23rd is World Reading Day, but in China, this world-wide reading festival has never been known to the public, let alone a festival. According to the annual survey of Sohu Reading Website, only 6% people know about World Reading Day, 27% people have heard of it but don't know the details, and 67% people have never heard of it. The creation of "scholarly atmosphere" has not attracted the attention of most people. The reason for this is the following：
Social influence: The proliferation of TV, comics, games and the Internet makes students have insufficient time to read. Compared with them, books lack visual perception, and students are not interested in reading books.
B. Parents have high expectations for their children. Due to the increasingly fierce social competition, parents blindly let their children participate in various remedial classes. The anxiety of expecting children to succeed makes parents pursue immediate results and the feeling of success in a short time. So many children are tired of coping and lack interest and time to study. In addition, the results of reading need more than ten years, or even a person's life to verify, which is hidden and can not be rushed for success. Therefore, according to the different educational level of parents, the degree of creating a family cultural atmosphere is also different. Few parents, especially those in rural areas, take creating a scholarly atmosphere and improving their children's humanistic quality as an important project of family education purposefully, hierarchically, step by step and patiently. Therefore, whether in urban or rural areas, how to guide parents to pay attention to reading, help parents create a scholarly atmosphere and improve students' humanistic quality is particularly important.
C, children of many rural families are almost always educated from generation to generation, and most of their grandparents are illiterate. Their parents work in factories all the year round, and their parents have a low level of education. The phenomenon of not reading books and newspapers all the year round is common in many rural families, which lack reading atmosphere and have low comprehensive quality.
According to the survey, most rural primary school students have less than 10 books, accounting for 75.6%, and quite a few families have no extracurricular books. The only book, however, is poor in literariness, and most of them are composition books for tutoring children. The present situation of book storage in urban and rural areas is very different, and the types of books are also very different.
The data listed in the report "Current Situation and Countermeasures of Children's Early Reading in China" makes people worry about the level of children's early reading in China. For example, children in western developed countries start reading when they are 6-9 months old, while children in China generally don't start reading until they are about 2-3 years old. American children enter the independent reading stage after the age of 4, while China children can reach this level only when they are 8 years old on average (the second grade of primary school); Although the incidence of dyslexia in Chinese is lower than that in English-speaking countries, according to experts' measurement of urban children, the incidence of dyslexia in China is also around 6%-8%, not to mention rural children who start reading later than urban children.
It can be seen that the more books, the richer the categories, the earlier you start reading and the higher the level of family education, which is a positive trend. It can also be seen that reading and creating a scholarly atmosphere are effective ways to improve the humanistic quality of students and even families.
4. Purpose and significance
First of all, the slogan of "strengthening the construction of socialist material civilization, political civilization and spiritual civilization" put forward by the CPC Central Committee embodies the call of the times for humanistic quality.
Secondly, the Chinese Curriculum Standard published by Beijing Normal University Press and formulated by China Ministry of Education clearly points out that it is necessary to cultivate students' "extensive reading interest, expand reading scope, increase reading volume, and advocate doing fewer questions, reading more, reading good books and reading whole books." And in the "general goal", there are specific and clear quantitative provisions on the total amount of extracurricular reading: the total amount of extracurricular reading in nine years should be above 4 million words. Among them, the total amount of extracurricular reading in the first to sixth grades of primary school is not less than 6.5438+0.5 million words. This, in turn, reflects the importance attached by the new curriculum reform to students' extracurricular reading. Its ultimate goal is not quantity, but how to effectively internalize the knowledge, emotion and spirit of reading into one's own literacy, which is the expectation of the new curriculum for humanistic literacy.
And "creating a scholarly atmosphere and improving students' humanistic quality" is the starting point to promote the reform and development of the new curriculum and adapt to the needs of the times.
Second, the goal.
Through the research of this topic, we can create a certain scholarly atmosphere in schools and families, and improve students' temperament cultivation through reading, as well as their noble ideological and moral character, stable psychological quality, good thinking mode, harmonious interpersonal communication, correct outlook on life and values.
Third, the content
1, through the formulation of reading plans and the development of reading activities, create a good campus scholarly atmosphere.
2. Guide the creation of family scholarly atmosphere through parent-teacher conferences, students and parents holding hands and parent-child reading.
Four. range
1. Create a scholarly atmosphere in primary schools and families.
2. The so-called scholarly atmosphere is a strong reading atmosphere formed by most people's reading activities in a certain range. In reading, we can appreciate the broad humanistic spirit and profound human wisdom contained in the text.
3. The construction here mainly refers to stimulating students' desire and interest in independent reading through the intervention of schools and the guidance of teachers, and combining various activities to make most students' reading behavior effective. Teachers should take the lead in reading more books, "make reading a habit, learning a ethos and research a quality", make reading the need of teachers' professional pursuit, get the motivation to improve their spiritual and cultural taste from Chinese and foreign masterpieces, improve their personality and enrich their literary accomplishment from the aftertaste of classics, and make a makeover on a sufficient cultural basis.
4. The promotion here is mainly through reading a lot of books, absorbing the essence of China's 5,000-year culture, learning and accumulating human wisdom, deepening the understanding of the world, and developing a civilized and rational attitude.
Verb (short for verb) target
The creation of scholarly atmosphere for students in Zhongfeng primary school.
(A) to create a scholarly atmosphere on campus and improve students' humanistic quality.
1, problem
(1) The school library has more than 6,000 books. Look at its categories, most of them are books ordered by superiors, and most of them are popular science, composition, stories and education. According to the teacher of the school library, many students like to borrow cartoons and stories with beautiful pictures, and some students in grade 5 and 6 even like to borrow picture books suitable for children. They think reading long stories is a waste of time, and reading comics is easier and faster. At the same time, the phenomenon of not cherishing books, even borrowing them, not reading them or not circulating them among classmates is more prominent, which has not played a real role in reading.
(2) Teachers' reading is out of touch with students' reading. Many teachers love reading, but often only pay attention to personal growth. In order to keep up with their majors, many teachers will read some educational books and periodicals, and even if they appreciate famous books, they lack communication with students, let alone hold reading exchange meetings with students.
(3) Teachers are very utilitarian when guiding students to read. In order to meet the requirements of the new curriculum, many teachers will recommend relevant bibliography to students according to the content of the text, but few people really communicate and discuss afterwards. One reason is that teaching time is not guaranteed, the other is that energy is limited, and the third is the lack of evaluation mechanism. Exploration is only carried out on the edge, and how much it really reaches can only be achieved by students' own consciousness or understanding. In addition, in order to improve students' writing level, teachers will also focus on guiding students to read selected compositions. Although the effect is quick, it lacks cultural background.
2. Measures to solve the problem
(1) Schools, classes, teachers and students, including parents, make reading plans.
A, the school should make corresponding reading plans according to the requirements of the curriculum and students of different grades, that is, students in each semester and each school year should make certain plans on reading quantity, reading content and time requirements, and at the same time, they should also make corresponding evaluation measures. For example, if a school opens its library and reading room at a certain time, it can arrange students to read independently every week to ensure the time and conditions for students to read effectively.
B, the class makes a reading plan. The head teacher can make different levels of class reading plans according to the different levels of class students. Make clear the reading amount and reading time of students at different levels, recommend reading lists to students, and organize small reading exchange meetings according to the reading situation. That is, students at the same level are organized in the form of extracurricular groups, and teachers can be observers and give timely guidance. In a relaxed atmosphere after class, due to the close level and interest, the exchange meeting went smoothly. At the same time, classes can formulate corresponding inspection measures and reward systems to fully mobilize students' reading enthusiasm and create a literary atmosphere.
C. the teacher makes a personal reading plan. The new education advocates reading for teachers and students. As a teacher, to enrich one's humanistic quality, one can announce to students what one has read and the feelings of the same period. I think, under the teacher's example, students will be more willing to study.
D, students can set reading goals every semester according to their own situation, such as how many books to choose, what to read, how to arrange time and so on.
(2) Schools can carry out a variety of reading activities and create a scholarly atmosphere in which everyone loves reading and everyone loves books.
A, according to the quantity and quality of reading, I am a little book fan is divided into one, two and three grades. And give some rewards.
B, regularly carry out "reading a book in grade * * *", organize reading exchange meetings in time, which can be presided over by students themselves, and choose whether to participate according to their own likes and dislikes, and teachers can make appropriate adjustments.
C activities such as "classic reading contest", "poetry dialogue" and "you read, I read, everyone reads" are carried out in conjunction with World Book Day. Take out old books, read books, and have a charity sale by selling, exchanging and donating. In this process, students' desire to explore good books is stimulated, and at the same time, they feel a strong cultural atmosphere in the activities of simulating the book market.
D, open a weekly radio reading column, and teachers or students recommend good books to everyone. Have a lunch class once a week and arrange for different teachers or classmates to introduce a good book to the whole school, so that most students can understand what the book is about or what it wants to tell us. Enrich students' reading horizons through this column.
E. Organize blackboard newspaper or team newspaper competitions with the theme of reading several times each semester. Among them, famous sayings, anecdotes, proverbs, classic fragments, reading experiences and awards can be collected.
Reading is the cornerstone of growth and the beginning of a wonderful life. Under the intervention of the school, create a scholarly atmosphere in the whole school. Even children who don't like reading can stimulate their thirst for literary knowledge through their understanding of various books, and regard reading as a natural thing. Read the taste in the activity and feel the life in the appreciation.
(3) Effective classroom reading instruction.
Class is the position to guide students to read effectively, and the class teacher can keep abreast of students' reading situation and make appropriate reading guidance.
A, read it once a week, tell me what books you have read, introduce the contents of the books, and how you feel.
B, each student has a reading manual, which records the reading time, bibliography, content, excerpts of good words, experiences and so on. Organize evaluation through certain evaluation methods, and protect students' thirst for knowledge and curiosity by encouraging.
C, carry out the exchange meeting on book purchasing, book collection and reading methods, guide students to learn to buy good books, judge which books are valuable, how to cherish books and introduce some reading skills or knowledge about how to read to each other, so as to improve the efficiency and quality of reading.
D, establish a book corner. Encourage students to bring their own good books to share with their classmates, and get the pleasure of reading in mutual communication.
Carry out reading practice activities. Such as story meeting, speech contest, poetry reading, reading experience, bookmark making, reading tabloids, reading essay contest, newspaper editing, introducing an idiom story in turn every day, etc.
F, reading in the game. Many short and pithy ancient poems, three-character classics, hundreds of surnames, thousands of words, disciples' rules and so on. It is catchy but contains many profound principles of being a man, which can be recited by children when playing games, which not only consolidates and renders the atmosphere, but also drives more children.
Reading has a great influence on people's growth, and a good book can often change people's life. A person's spiritual development history should be his own reading history; The spiritual realm of a nation depends largely on the reading level of the whole nation. It is undoubtedly the responsibility of every teacher to cultivate children's reading habits, stimulate children's interest in reading and enrich their spiritual world with culture.
(B) to create a family scholarly atmosphere, improve students' humanistic quality.
1, problem
The rural economy is relatively backward, parents are engaged in a single job, with low income and relatively long working hours, and they still go out to work. Students spend their spare time with their grandparents, whose educational level is low and their educational methods are outdated. For these reasons, children's family reading has the following problems:
(1) There are few books. Because of the low income, most of the income is used to promote the family's living resources, so parents have low ability to buy books. Moreover, due to the relatively low educational level of parents, they do not pay enough attention to reading and are unwilling to invest a lot in books.
(2) Not good at reading guidance. Parents in many families are engaged in overtime and high-intensity physical labor. The workload of more than ten hours a day leads to parents having no time to give their children reading guidance. Parents who are not good at reading guidance can be found everywhere in rural areas because of their low educational level and lack of self-literacy. Grandparents don't know how to influence their children's reading through themselves except taking care of their children's daily life.
(3) Reading starts late and has dyslexia. Most children in urban families can experience falling asleep in their parents' stories when they are two or three years old. At the same time, parents pay more and more attention to children's early education today, and the age of owning the first book is getting earlier and earlier. I remember when my child was three or four months old, I bought her the first book. Bright pictures and magnified objects invisibly affect children's intellectual development and cognitive ability of things and the world. On the basis of reading children's songs, ancient poems and telling stories to her, she can recite several ancient poems soon after learning to speak. Sometimes when she sees me holding a book, she will immediately take out her book and pretend to read it seriously. Although children over two years old can't read at all, her appearance makes me feel the role of parents in children's family reading. In rural areas, reading started late, and many children had their first books in the second grade of primary school. Therefore, in teaching, they always feel that most rural children are not as eloquent as urban students and quote classics. In the teaching of reading aloud, many students lack a sense of language, break sentences and have obvious reading obstacles.
2. Measures to solve the problem
(1) Make good use of parent-teacher conferences. Through parent-teacher conferences and parents' schools, parents will be guided to understand the importance of creating a family scholarly atmosphere, help parents make family reading plans, and supervise, guide and evaluate their children's effective reading.
(2) Small hands pull big hands. Through the construction of campus books and the edification of culture, let children and parents hold hands. You can carry out "I have a book with my parents", introduce your family reading experience, and evaluate your reading activities by family.
(3) Create a warm family reading atmosphere. Teachers can help parents create a warm family reading atmosphere according to the situation of rural families, which can be done in the form of suggestions. For example, it is suggested that families publish and read tabloids, and parents and children work together; It is suggested that some families be invited to participate in the family poetry reading contest through parent-teacher conferences or other forms.
Dear parents, we know that the improvement of humanistic quality cannot be achieved overnight. It is the perception and attitude towards the world and life gradually reflected in the process of accumulating culture. Constantly reading and exploring the 5,000-year cultural history of China will undoubtedly make people accumulate in the profound cultural heritage. Family education has the reputation of the second classroom, which is the continuation of school education and the supplement and improvement of places that cannot be covered outside school education. Middle school is an important period for children to grow up, and it is also one of the best periods for family education. Many children's moral feelings, living habits, personality and concept of being a person after adulthood are obviously marked with traces of childhood and adolescence. Paying attention to cultivating children's good family study habits is of great help to children's future study. Good family study habits are the guarantee of school education. Parents want their children to be the best. However, the actual situation of each child is different, only the correct education and guidance, the close combination of school education and family education. Only in this way can our children make continuous efforts and progress. Dear parents, let's work together to "build an elegant campus and home, and build a harmonious home school". Let's light up children's lives with books and let them overflow our campus homes.
