Dawan NewsOn December 15, the two-day first county-level middle school high-quality development principals forum was held in Dingyuan, with nearly 500 county leaders from all over the country attending. The forum was hosted by the Anhui Provincial Education Society and undertaken by the Dingyuan County Education and Sports Bureau and Dingyuan Middle School.
The first county-level middle school principals forum was "sought after".
On December 15, the temperature dropped sharply and it snowed heavily that night. But this could not stop nearly 500 county middle school principals from all over the country from attending the meeting.
If education is prosperous, the country will be prosperous, and if the county is strong, the county will be strong. Some experts at the forum bluntly said that the strength of a county not only affects the economic development of the county, but also affects the happiness and sense of gain of the local people. At present, there are certain weak links in the resources, teachers, students, discipline construction and other aspects of the county middle schools, and if we want to solve the difficulties of education in the county, we need to gather the wisdom of many parties. The forum focused on the "three new" education reform, curriculum reform, teaching management and the selection and training of top-notch innovative talents in county middle schools, which aroused great interest among the principals.
Wang Yong, dean of the Anhui Provincial Institute of Educational Sciences, pointed out in his speech that the "three new" education reform is at a critical time when the province has been implemented for three years, and the convening of the county middle school principals forum has built a good platform for these questions to interpret the confusion and answers.
How to evaluate the quality of an ordinary high school?Can the admission rate, the "champion", and the number of admissions to Tsinghua University and Peking University be objectively evaluated?Wang Yong believes that if we use these indicators to evaluate, in reality there are many ordinary high schools that are not satisfactory in running schools, but in fact these schools have given a large number of qualified workers to socialist modernization, and this is precisely the great contribution that existing high schools have made to society, so the development of ordinary high schools is facing various external and internal difficulties and pressures, and it is difficult for high schools to meet the diverse needs of the people and the requirements of high quality.
The experts "helped" the county to solve the problem
At the forum, Wang Yong gave a lecture entitled "Several Breakthroughs in the Current Curriculum Reform". He elaborated on the reasons for the change in the understanding of curriculum reform, the difficulties and support points in the implementation of the new curriculum and new textbooks, etcHow to change?In this way, we will solve a series of problems such as for whom, what, and how to train people, and ultimately train qualified personnel for the comprehensive realization of socialist modernization.
How to improve the quality of the classroom?Yan Biyou, director of the Nanjing Teaching and Research Office, said that the low quality of the classroom is mainly due to the lack of scientific goal setting, the serious phenomenon of full classroom filling and full practice, the blind pursuit of capacity and difficulty, and the lack of opportunities for students to think, discover and understand. He believes that it is necessary to formulate scientific and reasonable teaching objectives, carefully select materials and questions, give students the opportunity to think, express, discover, and understand, give students effective inspiration, guidance and help, and summarize the rules and refine the model. He advised the vast number of teachers not to indulge in "brushing up on questions" and to learn to "fly close to the ground" and cultivate students' good thinking as a new type of teacher in the new curriculum reform and the new education reform.
How are the class schedules arranged?How is the teaching schedule arranged?How to grasp the difficulty of the test paper for grading points?How to deploy teachers?Teaching management determines the final teaching outcome, and it is also the most difficult problem. Chen Zhongliu, a national outstanding teacher and principal of Qidong Middle School in Jiangsu Province, said that everything in Qidong Middle School should revolve around three links: lesson preparation, class attendance and homework. It is like a "hand-to-hand fight" between the curriculum reform and the backward teachers, either the east wind overpowers the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind!To this end, collective lesson preparation, teacher-student examination and all-staff proposition system are the three systems that the school has adhered to for a long time. Not only qualifications, not only professional titles, as long as teachers have made achievements in their work, they can be valued and affirmed, and get due rewards;On the contrary, if you can't teach, you won't have the right to speak in school, let alone be a leader.
Professor Wen Xinhua of East China Normal University believes that high-quality high school education serves new urbanization, provides high-quality high school education for county residents across generations, connects with the national science and technology and talent development strategy, lays a solid foundation for higher education to cultivate top-notch innovative talents, develops the advantages of county high schools, and explores the road of development and innovation at the county high school level.
The Dawan News reporter saw at the scene that the experts' reports were very exciting, the language was humorous and vivid, and some topics touched everyone's hearts, causing resonance among the principals in the audience, and the scene erupted into warm applause from time to time.
The experience of an "honor student" is thought-provoking
On the morning of December 16, Dai Maojun, deputy director of the Dingyuan County Education and Sports Bureau and secretary of the Party Committee of Dingyuan Middle School, made a special report on the topic of "The Practice of County High School Brand Building under the Background of "Three New". In this year's college entrance examination, Dingyuan Middle School has achieved outstanding results and has attracted much attention in the province and counties. In the past five years, the school has sent more than 600 students to key universities in China, and its outstanding performance and outstanding results have attracted the attention of the whole society for several consecutive years. Why did a county-level high school change from a "backward student" to an "excellent student"?Therefore, Dai Maojun's report has attracted special attention.
After years of continuous development, Dingyuan Middle School has experienced from a weak school to a general school, a high-quality school, and gradually to an excellent schoolDai Maojun revealed that his "family short" told everyone that more than 10 years ago, the results of Dingyuan Middle School were still at the bottom of the province's counties, and in 2006, it was rated as a provincial model high school, which is the last two batches of schools in Anhui Province, which also means that it is a school with low grades.
From excellence to greatness, our ultimate goal is to give students the best results in the exam room within 2 hours!Dai Maojun said that in Dingyuan Middle School to judge the performance of teachers, everything in numbers "speak", so that the team is convinced, so that every teacher can win dignity, teacher style, evaluation mechanism and team building is the "troika" of Dingyuan Middle School, of which teacher style and teacher ethics is the foundation of the school's development.
In the past six years, Dingyuan Middle School has embarked on the path of sustainable quality development, professional development of teachers, personalized development of students, and connotative development of schools, and continued to implement the construction of "four schools" of brand schools, teacher schools, student schools, and parent schools.
