Dear young teachers :

Hello everyone!

A few days ago, during the annual work review of the editorial department, I heard a young editor say: Among the young teachers in the school, there was a concentrated discussion some time ago. When reading the "Journal of Xi'an Jiaotong University", everyone's comments made her feel very uncomfortable. For several years, she has been proud of the team she is a part of and the journal she runs. Later, she mustered up the courage to participate in everyone's discussion and tried her best to explain everyone's "misunderstandings". However, there is one question she cannot answer:? EI inclusion alone is useless. If it is not SCI, no one will value it!? To this end, I want to talk about my understanding and ideas to communicate with everyone.

(1) It is understandable to publish SCI papers. The school pursues academic papers to be included in SCI, and the authors pursue publishing journal articles included in SCI. I understand it very well! In any case, SCI inclusion is currently a direct and efficient way to expand the school’s international academic influence, not to mention that various evaluations use it as an indicator. One?! I think that SCI is just a symbol, and its meaning is international academic influence! With international integration today, no industry can be said to not communicate with the world but to be independent, let alone academic exchanges (of course technology Except)! As a university that aims at international high levels, it is natural that it should place itself on the international stage to display and compete. The academic influence of the school is naturally composed of the academic influence of each teacher. Therefore, the task of expanding the school's international influence falls on each teacher. One of the "outstanding" tasks is to publish SCI journal papers. .

(2) SCI inclusion is not the purpose. As I mentioned earlier, the school’s goal is to enhance international academic influence, and SCI is only one of the direct and efficient ways. If we pursue simple SCI inclusion, we may go astray. As far as the journal publishing industry in which I work is concerned, everyone is publishing English journals one after another, and even pursuing SCI publication sources by any means, which is very dangerous. I think: Expanding international influence requires an international platform, but it is too simplistic just to be included in SCI. From the perspective of academic impact, it is undoubtedly the most effective way to demonstrate academic impact with the help of existing academic platforms recognized by international peers, without necessarily building another platform yourself. If it is easier to perform on a platform you have built, then it is difficult for this platform to have international influence, even if it is included in SCI. The purpose of publishing international journals (in English) is to compete for the right to speak in international academic exchanges, and to build a stage that can be recognized by peers around the world and controlled by us. Building an international stage and publishing international papers are two interrelated but different issues.

(3) SCI has been entangled for many years. In 1997, the journal was released from the EI publication source, and the whole school was in an uproar, because the search index of EI was very important at that time. By the time the journal was admitted again in 1998, the whole country had begun to take a fancy to SCI. School leaders have asked me many times that my journal should aim to enter SCI journals, but no one has considered: Is it possible? If possible, in what form should it be entered? My answer is: Impossible, I have to If you enter the SCI journal source, you cannot run the journal as you do now. You must run the journal according to the SCI inclusion standards. Gradually, no one will directly ask "Journal of Xi'an Jiaotong University" to aim to enter the "SCI publication source" anymore. In 2009, the school leaders made a clear request: "If you want to compile, give money to money. The goal is to establish one or two academic journals with international influence."

?I won’t talk about the hard conditions of giving what you want (the English version of the "Journal of Xi'an Jiaotong University" published at that time was struggling to maintain with a funding of 80,000 yuan and one editor). Simply put: a high-level academic journal is How does it operate and publish?! From an international perspective, it is not the enthusiasm and active investment of academic leaders? Marrying for others is the publisher's high-investment brand operation. As an academic outsider, he can publish a high-level academic journal. It's not impossible but it's difficult, at least I can't do it (except for abnormal means). If you look at the current publishing history of academic journals at home and abroad, you will believe: People only see the glory of successful people on the stage but not the hardships behind the glory?! We usually use it as a dowry for others. For example, editors, I Don't think this is accurate. The editor here mainly does not refer to a full-time editor like me. The so-called full-time editors are editors who make this their profession. Since it is your own profession, why do you make dowries for others? What kind of profession is not serving others? If it is "dowry for others", it is also a full-time "embroiderer?!" Make dowry for others? The editors should refer to those academic scholars, You can stop making wedding dresses for yourself and become an editor to make wedding dresses for other colleagues. Behind the high-level academic journals in the world, there are such high-level scholar-editors. This kind of editor is respectable! What I mean is: high-level academic journals cannot do without the input of the editor-in-chief!

(4) Regarding the positioning of Jiaotong University Journal. The positioning of "Journal of Xi'an Jiaotong University" has always been to expand academic influence with the help of domestic and foreign resources and serve teaching and scientific research with the influence of the journal. Teachers are the main force of the school, and we are the school’s support team. A leader once suggested to me at a performance review meeting that the school issue a regulation: Each doctoral supervisor must publish a manuscript in a journal every year. ?This suggestion was flatly rejected by me on the spot! My reason was: the school's excellent scientific research results should be encouraged and assisted by teachers to be published on the "highest possible" platform, in order to strive for greater academic influence for the school, and if Published in its own journal, although it supports the journal, it causes the loss of academic influence of the school. The process of transforming the influence of journals into the influence of schools is bound to decline. I think this approach is inefficient for both schools and teachers. University journals should strive to train our students (authors), including our young teachers, through the journal stage. When it has a certain level of strength, it should go to the international stage to win glory for the school! Maybe, you will feel that my positioning is a bit "stale", but I think that I can be confident and loyal to my own career and pursue my own reasonable positioning. , is the way to realize your own value. Maybe, we don’t get flowers and appreciation, but so what. Just as you, as teachers, work diligently to teach undergraduates, we all shoulder the responsibility of educating people! This is also one of the characteristics that distinguishes university journals from professional journals. .

(5) How to use university journals? Although "Journal of Xi'an Jiaotong University" receives a lot of submissions, it has been very distressed: the rejection rate remains above 75, and high-impact manuscripts Still relatively few. This is also the motivation for one of my young editors to eagerly solicit manuscripts from you. Everyone hopes to get high-quality manuscripts, and my editor is no exception. But if you don’t submit manuscripts to my journal, I won’t encourage teachers in my school to lower themselves to publish in journals. For this reason, my editor also complained: This makes us how to run a journal! I think: only in this difficult situation can the initiative of our editors be reflected, and our level and harmony in the university can be reflected. value. Our slogan is: create first-class influence with second-rate manuscripts! Fortunately, "Journal of Xi'an Jiaotong University": ranks around 3rd among the 25 university journals sponsored by C9 universities (academic indicators only); it continues to be ranked 5th It has been awarded the title of China's top science and technology journals in universities for consecutive years; it ranks among the top 10 in the international influence index ranking of national science and technology journals (including more than 200 English journals), ranking around 300, and has been ranked among the top 300 by China for three consecutive years. The Academic Journal Evaluation Center awarded the title of "Excellent Journal of International Academic Influence to Chinese Science and Technology Journals".

Our approach is: 1) Treat all manuscripts equally in terms of academic level regardless of whether they are inside or outside the school. We do not use expression problems as a reason for rejection of manuscripts inside the school, and strive to revise ordinary papers into excellent papers through our review organization; 2) Study the rules of network communication and the expression of scientific research results, through the expression and editing of papers to improve the logic, clarity and theoretical nature of the results, especially to facilitate online retrieval and shallow reading; 3) Encourage innovation, especially encourage young people to boldly explore and innovate, and provide The preliminary results of exploration in new fields provide a publishing platform and create an innovative environment (please indicate this when submitting for easy attention); 4) Be rigorous and realistic, and use our style of study to influence the authors who deal with us. What we are most proud of is the review Readers, readers and authors commented that we have inherited the rigorous and realistic academic style of Jiaotong University?!

We are proud that more than 50 of the school’s 14 science and engineering Changjiang Scholars have had their first works published in "Xi'an" "Journal of Jiaotong University" (statistics in August 2009), we hope to publish more "first works" for future "Changjiang Scholars" and contribute our efforts to the glory of Xi'an Jiaotong University again. We sincerely hope that we can leave our footprints with you on the way before you take off. Although our editors work hard, they are well aware that their level and abilities are limited. We are willing to grow with the majority of young authors! On this occasion of the New Year, I wish you all a happy family, good health and safety!

"Journal of Xi'an Jiaotong University" deputy editor-in-chief Zhao Daliang

Sample letter 2 to young teachers on January 9, 2015

Thoughts after reading "To Young Teachers":

p>

A sixty-year-old man had one eye tightly closed, one eye open and tears streaming, and he persisted in teaching his students the last lesson. After arriving at the hospital, one of his eyes was examined. Blind. This old man is none other than Teacher Wu Fei, who is loved by students and whom we respect very, very much. He has said goodbye to his beloved podium.

"To Young Teachers" is Teacher Wu Fei's farewell work. I was fortunate enough to read this book recently. In the book, Teacher Wu imparts his more than 30 years of educational experience, answers in detail the problems that our young teachers encounter in education and teaching, and gives advice on some details that may be overlooked in teaching. The most important thing is What I hope is that young teachers will not give up their educational conscience no matter what the circumstances, and do something that is beneficial to the nation and worthy of the future.

There is such a sentence in the book that touched me deeply: Children are not only trying to get a perfect answer sheet in the college entrance examination, but more importantly, in today's somewhat exaggerated era, when children When we lose our childishness and leave the high school campus, we will have the courage to face difficulties without fear, have an optimistic and sunny attitude towards things, and have a positive and upright attitude in dealing with things. ?

Teachers are not only people who teach and solve doubts, but more importantly, they are the guides of children’s spiritual growth and people who teach children how to behave.

First of all, I want to be a teacher with true feelings.

In my first year on the podium, in order to establish prestige in front of the children, I never smiled easily in front of the children. I remember a girl once asked me quietly: Teacher Guo, why do you never smile? I hope you can smile more! Indeed, the result of not smiling can make children feel awe of me, but more Yes, the child distanced himself from me.

As Teacher Wu said, the expression of true feelings is the most beautiful emotion in human nature. As a teacher, you teach students to be a person with true feelings, rather than a person who is indifferent, indifferent, and cold-eyed to anyone and anything. The ultimate goal of education is to cultivate real people. Therefore, as a teacher and their class teacher, at an age when their values ??have not yet been formed and their independent thinking is immature, I should not only be a disseminator of knowledge, but also guide the children to pay attention to The most beautiful emotions in human nature, the guide to discover the truth, goodness and beauty.

Now that I am out of confusion, I can openly express my emotions in front of my children.

When they are happy, I laugh with them without hesitation; when a child does something kind, no matter how small it is, I will be the first to express my gratitude and appreciation. I want to use my true feelings to guide my children to become kind and tolerant people.

Secondly, I want to be a teacher who sets an example.

Paying attention to details, teaching by one’s own example, and being a teacher by example are the eternal norms of teacher behavior. I should pay attention to the details in my words and deeds and show my enthusiasm, because enthusiasm will not only be infected, but also the most basic quality that a good teacher must possess. Show a good attitude, show affection, care and respect, because attitude makes a difference.

On weekdays, I dress neatly and appropriately, speak and behave civilly, because children can observe and appreciate. I will stand and pay attention when the national flag is raised, because the children also pay attention to my love and belief. I often pick up scraps of paper and rubbish around me, wipe the blackboard myself, and turn off the lights when I leave the classroom, because the children will follow the teacher subtly.

I also pay attention to keeping time and keeping my promises. I always come to class early and never delay class. I abide by the agreement I made with my children. As long as I say it, I will definitely fulfill it. Guide children to be honest and trustworthy people like their teachers.

These are some unfinished thoughts brought to me by Teacher Wu Fei’s "To Young Teachers". Too many articles have given me too much inspiration, and there is still a lot more I have to do. I would like to continue to read this book after work and savor the profession of being a teacher, which will accompany me throughout my life. Sample Letter to Young Teachers

Thoughts after reading "To Young Teachers":

"To Young Teachers" is a collection of short educational essays that have influenced many teachers. It compiles 85 articles by teacher Wu Fei (Wang Dongsheng), which involve school management, classroom teaching, moral cultivation, curriculum construction, educational evaluation, students' spirituality and many other aspects. The articles are short and concise, and the text is meaningful and profound. It is a lot of inspiration to read. . The book is written for young teachers, but it deserves to be read carefully by every educator.

1. Love the students you teach

A qualified teacher must be full of love. Teachers in ancient China called students "disciples", that is, teachers regarded students as their own brothers or sons, and would treat these disciples like they love their own relatives. Although society has undergone great changes, and schools and courses have also undergone subversive changes, the relationship between teachers and students should not change.

In a society dominated by utilitarianism, it is increasingly difficult to love students as much as you love your own children or younger brothers. It was reported in the media a few days ago that two kindergartens in Xi'an City have given children prescription virus medicine for six consecutive years to increase children's attendance and ensure the kindergarten's income. Such teachers are simply unconscionable and a blasphemy to the title of teacher. I don’t know whether these teachers’ own children attend these two kindergartens and whether they also let their children take such prescription drugs.

A teacher who regards students as his "disciples" will at least respect his students as he respects an ordinary person. He will care about students' inner feelings, will not yell at students easily, and will not insult children.

When grading students' test papers, he will think that these scores will be seen by class representatives and surrounding classmates. If a student's score is not ideal, handing out test papers in this way will make him feel embarrassed and embarrassed; when talking to students , you will think of the weight behind this sentence: "Come to my office?", and think of the uneasiness that may make students feel, but instead: "If you have time, are you willing to come to my office to play?", so as not to give students Bringing unnecessary tension; when the bell rings, you will think that many students will come to compete for toilet resources during recess. If you delay class for a few minutes, your children may not be able to relax during recess. I may also let my children develop the bad habit of being late for class; when students like me very much, can I tell whether they like me as a person or the subjects I teach? In the process of studying, a student You will meet many teachers. If you just like me as a person, it may cause students to fail in their studies after changing teachers. We must guide students to change from liking the teacher personally to liking the subject; if the student is late in the morning or something is abnormal, When acting, you must understand the child's hard work in studying and homework. Do not sarcastically, sarcastically or even punish the child on the basis of his already feeling of guilt. Use the mentality of "killing the chicken to show the monkey" to allow yourself to gain emotional pleasure.

A teacher who regards students as his "disciples" will pay great attention to his words and deeds, and strive to become a civilized person, so as to influence his students in a subtle way. When he opens or closes the door, he will check to see if there is anyone in front or behind him to avoid bumping into others. The sound of closing the door is very soft and will not make a "bang" sound; when he walks in the study place, he will not ignore anyone and let himself His high heels or leather shoes with spikes make harsh noises that interfere with other people's thinking; he will not smoke or spit in front of students, let alone litter all kinds of debris, and he will not let his desk be filled with all kinds of things. objects appear messy; he will no longer organize students to flush their classrooms with water when cleaning the class, and let the dirty muddy water flow in the corridors or corridors without doing anything; he will not do anything during the competition events of a sports meeting , got angry because his class ranking did not reach the expected goal, and took the whole class to find the ethics referee, causing an uproar in the whole school; he would not only ask students to study hard, but he had hardly read any books, and only asked students to study hard. Do the exercises seriously, but you don’t know how to do this set of radio exercises?

Educating students is actually not difficult. Growth is the child's own business, and what we have to do is to create a suitable environment for their healthy growth, an atmosphere full of care.

2. Love the profession you are engaged in

A qualified teacher is full of love for the teaching profession and even more passionate for the subjects he teaches. Because he is full of love, he will devote himself wholeheartedly to it. Leif, an American middle school teacher who has visited China several times to give lectures recently, is one of the representatives. Teachers who love and cherish their profession will gain the joy of teaching and the joy of life from their own subjects. A teacher who does not even love his profession cannot become an excellent teacher.

Teachers who love their profession will often review their educational concepts to see whether they follow the characteristics of students' physical and mental development and the laws of education, and whether they reflect the direction of educational reform. Over the past thirty years of reform and opening up, we have invested more heavily in education than ever before. School teaching facilities and school running conditions have also undergone earth-shaking changes, but few educator-level teachers have emerged. The problem may lie in the concept of education. Education is a slow undertaking. The growth of children is like planting trees and crops. It is impossible to sow seeds today and reap harvests tomorrow. But our education often can't wait, and our teachers can't wait either. We hope that our children will stand out as soon as possible.

Teachers who love their profession usually have a conscious awareness of moral cultivation. Studying in normal colleges only provides teachers with the foundation for teaching. Much practical wisdom and understanding of children's physical and mental development characteristics are gained in teaching positions.

The teaching profession is a profession that requires continuous learning and lifelong learning. Only by persistently strengthening learning and constantly improving one's teacher ethics and subject literacy can one be qualified for the job of a teacher. But today, many teachers have basically given up studying after joining the workforce. They have not studied except for teaching supplementary books for a whole year. They are often forced to participate in teacher training and have to cope with the mentality of coping with the gap. Some teachers are very disgusted with the frequently changing teaching materials and curriculum standards, because these changes mean that they have to prepare lessons again, which brings them a lot of trouble.

Teachers who love their profession are very concerned about the cutting-edge development of their disciplines. He is not only familiar with the basic structure and internal system of the discipline he is engaged in, but also understands some key events and representative figures in the development of the discipline. He also understands that today's society is changing with each passing day, and new knowledge emerges all the time. New developments, as well as hot and difficult issues that everyone is concerned about in subject development are promptly integrated into their own teaching, so that students can always breathe with the development of society. One of the biggest drawbacks of today’s subject teaching is that subject knowledge is separated from life practice. Physics teaches students the discoveries and knowledge from a hundred years ago. Mathematics is intoxicated with numbers and symbols, and children do not know how to learn these. What is the use of knowledge? Naturally, it cannot inspire their passion for learning.

Teachers who love their profession usually have strong humanistic feelings. They will convey their joy and passion for the subject to students, allowing students to feel the beauty of the subject. They pay special attention to the intersections and connections between disciplines, allowing students to realize that the entire world is a complex, and only because of the convenience of learning, several disciplines are artificially divided. They usually have a broad vision, pay attention to various phenomena and problems around them, and can communicate with students in many aspects, allowing children to distinguish truth, goodness, and beauty. What can be remembered by students about a teacher is often not a certain class he took or a certain knowledge point he taught, but usually the teacher's humanistic care for him. A chat in a depressing moment, a smile in an embarrassing situation, the vast world after school, and an example in life?

Wu Fei said in the book that a qualified teacher must possess three things: Basic qualities: thinker, learner, practitioner. Among them, repeating your own teachings over and over again will not make you a practitioner. Because students are changing, the requirements of curriculum standards are also changing. As a teacher, you should treat every class as a new class, study the students carefully, study the teaching materials carefully, and work together to design teaching methods and procedures. Teacher Yu Yi said: "Be a teacher all your life and learn to be a teacher all your life." ?This is a famous saying from an educational practitioner, and it is also the basic quality that a person who loves the teaching profession should possess.

3. Love your own school

A very important platform for teachers’ educational ideals to be realized is the school. Every tree and plant in the school is a factor in education, and they are all influencing the growth of students in a subtle way. A qualified teacher must be a teacher who loves school and leads students to love their school together. A school is truly successful only if both teachers and students like school life.

If you love your own school, you will pay attention to whether the various facilities, equipment, flowers, plants and trees in the school serve the purpose of educating people, and you will think about how you can contribute to the better construction of this school. Order something. Everyone is a builder of the school. This awareness and action of all teachers, students and staff participating in school management will not only bring about the transformation of education from management to governance, but also make every plant and tree on the campus more in line with the purpose of education. , effectively exert the effectiveness of educating people. Teacher Wu Fei said in the book that he likes to sit on campus during holidays and admire the big trees growing vigorously, think about who planted these books and what their intentions were at that time, and tell the students his thoughts so that everyone can Let’s find the meaning together. After such discussions and searches, the trees on campus have a different meaning in the eyes of children.

If you love your own school, you will pay attention to the school’s school objectives, school motto, charter and other regulations related to the school’s direction, as well as the various slogans in the school to see whether they are in line with the laws of education and whether they are beneficial to the school. Students’ physical and mental growth. There are many famous schools around us, but when talking about these famous schools, people often have a lot of feelings about the past of these schools, but have few words about their present. The reason why famous schools became famous is because they embodied the spirit of the times in a certain historical period. However, after these famous schools reach today, the only thing they can tell others is their college entrance examination results. If you study carefully the various slogans shouted to encourage students to get into good schools, they often go against common sense in education.

If you love your own school, you will pay attention to the school’s curriculum to see if it can achieve the educational goals of all-round development of students. For example, is the student's physical fitness guaranteed by the school's serious implementation of exercising for an hour a day? The children not only actively participate in sports activities, but also develop the habit of persisting in their favorite sports; for example, the student's Is there an overall plan for cultivating aesthetic ability, which has been effectively implemented in each grade, and the improvement of students' artistic literacy has been effectively guaranteed; for example, students' habit of loving labor has been observed through the school's curriculum. , there are many things within the school that are completed by students through their own personal labor? In Japanese elementary schools, from canteen cooking to restaurant decoration and organization, children are basically the main focus, but in our schools today How many classes here have their own sanitation area and can still insist on taking a certain amount of time to participate in labor classes every week? When students are keen on "Model United Nations", debate competitions and speech contests every day, they can't even clean themselves. If they can't do things like classrooms or cleaning their own campus, can you still expect them to really contribute to international affairs and social affairs?

Loving your school is not just a slogan, it can Implement it through specific things. How are we doing in this regard?
