First, the causes of underachievers
Family reasons for the formation of underachievers-parents' bad words and deeds. Parents' words and deeds directly affect children's healthy growth. Some parents do not shoulder the responsibility of educating their children, but ask their children about their thoughts and learning. Some parents spoil their children too much, don't have high requirements for their children, and are ineffective in guiding and supervising their children. Some parents treat their children rudely, which seriously dampens their self-esteem and makes them the opposite of their parents. Some families have divorced parents, and students can't get a warm education, which has caused great psychological trauma to their children.
The school reasons for the formation of underachievers ── the influence of teachers' inadequate ideological education and one-sided pursuit of enrollment rate. Some teachers' education methods are simple and rude, and they are indifferent to underachievers. If you live in this indifferent attitude for a long time, underachievers will breed self-destruction psychology. In order to pursue the enrollment rate, some teachers care for outstanding students and ignore the underachievers, which leads to the underachievers slipping further and further on the backward road.
Social reasons for backwardness ── the influence of unhealthy social thoughts. In today's era of reform and opening up, people's outlook on life and values are constantly changing with the trend, and their ideology is constantly being updated. At the same time, it inevitably brings some negative factors, which makes some students be influenced by wrong ideas such as money first, hedonism and the futility of reading, and deviate from the road of healthy growth.
Mr. Tao Xingzhi once said: Whoever doesn't love students can't educate them well. Suhomlinski also stressed that children who behave differently because of the adverse effects of family and even social environment should be treated with friends and like-minded people, because only sincere love for students can inspire them, make them feel incomparable warmth and ignite the fire of hope for students to pursue progress and become excellent students. Because of poor academic performance, they can't get the affirmation and praise from classmates, teachers and parents, and consciously or unconsciously become a group of "special elements" in the class, feeling ashamed and guarding their own hearts, shrinking into the "condom" made by themselves or others, giving up on themselves or being undisciplined. We know that emotional health directly affects the healthy development of a person's psychological quality, and the emotions of "underachievers" are the most fragile, and their hearts need more comfort. At this time, emotion is the catalyst for them to learn and forge ahead. As class teachers and "engineers of human souls", we should save these "out of favor" people and give them real feelings. In the process of educational transformation, teachers should be rational and emotional, improve the moral consciousness and self-motivation of underachievers, cultivate their right and wrong concepts, insist on positive induction, convince people by reasoning, and avoid simply and rudely oppressing others. 2. Look for the bright spots of underachievers and appreciate their advantages.
American psychologist William? James has a famous saying: the deepest principle of human nature is to hope others appreciate him. He also found that an uninspired person can only play 20% to 30% of his ability, while when he is inspired, his ability can play 80% to 90%. It can be seen that the use of praise and encouragement is also extremely important in the work of transforming underachievers. As the ancients said, those who teach are good at saving their lost talents. Although the underachievers have many shortcomings, even the worst students always have some specialties or advantages. For example, those who are poor in learning and have expertise in music and art, the class teacher should be good at capturing their bright spots and praising them at the right time. Rousseau, a French educator, once said that it is much better to praise students' slight progress than to laugh at their obvious evil deeds. How to dig? 1) Make the best use of the situation and follow the crowd.
In today's implementation of quality education, that is to say, we should respect students' personality and personal interests and cultivate qualified high-quality talents with special skills. This requires educators to be good at capturing students' advantages and praising them appropriately, so that they have confidence in themselves and hope for the future. At this time, the teacher will make some demands, and he will be willing to accept and work hard. There is an example: once in a geography class, a classmate painted with such relish that the teacher didn't notice when he walked by. Look at the content of his picture. The teacher is holding a book in class. The teacher wants to tear it, but he draws really well and can't bear to part with it. At this time, the students' eyes were fixed on the teacher. The teacher calmly praised his paintings and showed them to everyone on the spot, but at the same time he pointed out diplomatically that painting is good, but you can't lose your geography study! This classmate is a famous naughty boy, probably because he was praised by the teacher for the first time! He looked at the teacher blankly, and it was hard to say whether he was sad or excited. The teacher talked to him after class and pointed out that you are very talented in painting. If you practice painting more in your spare time, you will definitely make great achievements when you are admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts for further study in the future, but you can't fall behind in other disciplines, otherwise this beautiful ideal will be ruined. Through this conversation, he realized that he had done something wrong and said on the spot that he would not live up to the teacher's expectations. So the teacher assigned him the task of designing the class header. He did his duty and finished each issue well, which was praised by his classmates. Since then, the student has made great progress in all aspects. 2) Create opportunities and encourage enterprising.
Psychological research shows that all children need to express and show their desires. Therefore, teachers should conform to students' psychology, provide students with opportunities for self-expression, pay special attention to those underachievers, create opportunities, and use situations to stimulate students' enthusiasm for learning. You can carry out some activities in the class, such as holding a class meeting to find the bright spots, so that everyone can speak freely about the bright spots of each classmate. Let him know that nothing is impossible as long as you work hard. We can be sure that everyone has his own specialty. For an "underachiever", one aspect may be worse, but on the other hand, it may be extremely powerful. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the "underachievers" and look for their "bright spots", even if they are extremely small progress or strengths, they should be affirmed and encouraged in time. We should encourage them with their strengths and highlights, let them know what they can do, let their good aspects gradually replace their bad aspects, and provide them with opportunities to display their talents and performance as much as possible. In this way, they will have a * * * sound with their teachers, which will enhance their confidence in overcoming difficulties. Only in this way can we help them gradually build up their self-esteem and self-confidence and truly achieve the goal of healthy development. 3. Build up confidence, stimulate their interest in learning and help them improve their grades.
Goethe has such a famous saying: you lost your wealth, you only lost a little, you lost your reputation, you lost a lot, you lost your courage, you lost everything. Therefore, let the underachievers make progress and re-establish self-confidence is the key to the transformation work. Teachers should make great efforts to help them improve their learning methods and improve their learning efficiency. Underachievers should not only affirm their achievements immediately, but also put forward new goals when they work hard. Don't exclude all the underachievers in the class. We can arrange some jobs suitable for them, and even let some progressive underachievers introduce their experiences, play a role, let them see hope, stimulate their inner potential for progress, and establish confidence in continuous progress. After underachievers have confidence in their studies, they will have interest, and interest is the best teacher. Therefore, in teaching, we should use good teaching design to stimulate students' interest in learning and create an environment conducive to stimulating students' internal drive; We should give priority to praising underachievers and seize every bright spot to praise them. 4. In the educational transformation, schools, families and society should form a joint force.
For a long time, there has been insufficient cooperation between off-campus education and on-campus education in educating students, especially underachievers. On the one hand, the school seriously educates the underachievers, on the other hand, the society generally doesn't care about and satirize the underachievers and downplays school education. Combine family, society and school organically, give full play to their respective advantages, and strive to create a good transformation atmosphere. Family and society should be regarded as an important link to consolidate the effect of school transformation. Teachers, as the main force to transform "underachievers", should coordinate the relationship among family, school and society, and can't ignore any one. Only in this way can they receive help from all sides in a good environment. In short, the transformation of "underachievers" can not be achieved by one person alone, but requires the all-round cooperation of teachers, schools, families and society. It is necessary to give full play to the leading role of schools and make full use of the positive influence of external factors on them. In particular, we should attach great importance to the role of family education, do a good job of parents of underachievers, and obtain the cooperation and help of parents to achieve the purpose of * * * education. 5. Persevere and never give up
After a period of persuasion and education, students' thoughts will fluctuate to some extent, some will strongly reflect on their own thoughts and behaviors, learning methods and skills, and their behaviors may temporarily converge. At this time, teachers must not give up their efforts because they think that the work has been finished. The transformation of underachievers cannot be achieved overnight. In the process of transformation, it is a normal phenomenon that underachievers recur and appear repeatedly. Teachers must be full of enthusiasm for this very hard work, and must follow the laws of education, grasp it repeatedly, grasp it repeatedly, guide the situation according to the situation, and let the underachievers keep the momentum of continuous progress. Without a long-term patient education and psychological preparation for transforming underachievers, teachers can easily lose confidence in them and even think that they have? It's hopeless. It's hopeless? . You know, you can't dig a well with one shovel, and you can't eat fat people with one bite. It takes a long time to carve a stone statue, let alone shape a person's soul. Therefore, the transformation of underachievers should also be a gradual process, let alone a primary school student.
In the specific process of education, we should understand the "underachievers" and care for them with generosity, fraternity and keen heart. We should create a good class environment for them and provide them with opportunities for exercise and performance; Actively discover their bright spots and encourage them to establish self-confidence and self-esteem. Then, "underachievers" will pursue and struggle with a successful attitude. Guo Moruo failed several subjects when he was a student, but this did not prevent him from becoming a famous scholar in the future. Newton's intelligence was normal when he was a child, and there were always students with poor grades in the class. Edison, the great inventor, was rejected by the school because of his poor academic performance; The French revolutionary Napoleon's primary school was a mess, and everyone thought he was worthless; Former British Prime Minister john major dropped out of school at the age of sixteen. These people, who were regarded as mediocre people in primary and secondary schools, later became world-famous figures. Let's abandon our prejudice against underachievers, give them more love, let the sunshine of love warm their hearts, let the rain of love nourish their growth, actively explore new methods and skills, and strive to strengthen the transformation education of underachievers. Maybe another great man will be born in your hands!
