Parents generally feel that when their children are in elementary school and junior high school, teachers are very meticulous in their management and pay attention to almost everything, but when their children enter high school, teachers seem to be not enough to discipline them. This view is very common in our society. So, why does the way teachers hold responsibility for the same student change when they enter different grades?
Actually, this problem cannot simply be attributed to the lack of responsibility of the high school teacher as a junior high school teacher, or the child's problem. This view is based on a misunderstanding of the homeroom teacher system and a lack of understanding of high school education.
First of all, the study pressure of high school students has increased significantly, and they need more self-directed learning and self-management. In contrast, junior high school students are more likely to be guided and supervised by teachers in their studies. Therefore, high school teachers pay more attention to cultivating students' self-directed learning ability, hoping that they can take the initiative to learn and manage their own learning process. This requires students to be self-disciplined and have good study habits in order to adapt to the learning requirements of high school.
Secondly, high school teachers need more professional knowledge and skills. The subjects in high school are more specialized and the knowledge is more in-depth. In contrast, a middle school teacher may have an easier time mastering the teaching content. Therefore, high school teachers not only need to have solid subject knowledge, but also need to have teaching experience and skills, and be able to formulate teaching plans and strategies for different students to help them better grasp the knowledge.
Again, high school teachers have a heavier teaching task. At the high school level, the number of students increases, the number of subjects increases, and teachers need to deal with more students and subjects. In contrast, junior high school teachers have relatively light teaching tasks. Therefore, high school teachers must have better time management skills and work efficiency, and be able to reasonably arrange teaching tasks and time to ensure the quality and efficiency of teaching.
While parents have doubts about the ability of high school teachers to be responsible, many parents also affirm the efforts of high school teachers. They recognize that upper secondary education is more complex and difficult than lower secondary education, and that the level of responsibility of upper secondary teachers has likewise increased.
In reality, there are many high school teachers who are very responsible, they pay attention to the comprehensive quality and personal development of students, not only impart knowledge in the classroom, but also pay attention to students' learning and living conditions, actively communicate with parents, and provide students with learning guidance and help. They will care about students' learning pressure and physical and mental health, believe in students' potential, and help them establish a correct learning attitude and concept of life.
At the same time, there are also some high school teachers who believe that parents have a misunderstanding of the level of responsibility of high school teachers. They said that many excellent high school teachers are very strict in the management of students, while those who are more lax in management are declining in teaching quality year by year. They believe that with the development and change of society, the best power is getting bigger and bigger, and it is difficult for a few students to be able to completely control themselves, even adults. Therefore, they call on parents and society to give more understanding and support, and also hope that parents can strengthen communication with their children and guide them to develop good learning and living habits.
In middle and high school, the sense of responsibility of teachers has changed, not because teachers are irresponsible, but because of the growth and learning needs of students. Middle school is the stage where students lay the foundation for learning and life, and teachers need to supervise and help students adapt to the new learning environment at this time. In high school, students need more independent learning and management, and teachers pay attention to cultivating students' independent learning ability and thinking ability. This approach is more conducive to the personal growth and development of students.
All in all, the educational responsibilities at the middle and high school levels are different, and teachers take different approaches to responsibility at different stages. Parents should be aware of and understand these differences, actively communicate with teachers, and work together to create a good learning environment for their children's growth and development. At the same time, parents should also give sufficient understanding and support, encourage children to establish a correct learning attitude and concept of life, and manage their own learning and life, so that they can better adapt and grow in the face of greater learning pressure. On the road of life, only students who know how to be self-disciplined, work hard and have the ability to learn independently can achieve better results and realize their dreams.
