School profile
First, the civilized and diligent Dalian Xigang Middle School
Dalian Xigang Middle School, established in1September 1999, has 83 teachers, including 65 undergraduate teachers, 8 graduate students/kloc-0, 54 municipal teaching experts, 3 senior teachers1person, 3 academic leaders and 2 famous teachers. There are 1 excellent class teachers in China. The school has 24 classes with about 1200 students. The teaching building covers an area of 6,000 square meters and there are 33 classrooms (including 14 special classrooms with complete functions). The school has realized campus networking and office automation, which has the characteristics of art and foreign language teaching.
In the past four years, the school has successively won the titles of "Green School in Liaoning Province", "Dalian Campus Environmental Art School", "Dalian Demonstration School for Training during recess", "Dalian Primary and Secondary School Facilities Standardization School" and "Dalian Civilized Unit". It is the national innovative writing teaching research and experimental school, the experimental base of comprehensive evaluation method of mathematics, the key subject of the Ministry of Education, and the formative evaluation of English teaching in basic education.
At present, the school ranks first among all middle schools in Xigang District of Dalian in terms of teaching staff, education and teaching level, students' comprehensive quality, modern education and teaching equipment configuration and means application. Become a hot school that the society respects and students yearn for, and the cradle of cultivating key high school students.
The following are two sets of statistics: First, in last year's junior high school entrance examination, the school ranked among the best in the city with 62% and 62.08% key finalists respectively. Second, in the market model test at the beginning of this year, 96 students in the whole school broke through the 600 mark; The finalist rate of 575 points reached 62.9%; In the second examination, the whole school 100 people broke through the 600 mark. Excellent academic performance laid the foundation for students to further their studies. It has won high social prestige for the school.
When I entered Xigang Middle School, I saw the beautiful school environment, the quietness in the teaching building, the joy of classroom activities, the students' decent speeches, the order during the big recess, and the tension and busyness of the teachers' offices. This feeling has been with me from beginning to end, and people have to admire the rigor of school spirit, teaching style and study style.
Although the school has not been established for a long time, it has made outstanding achievements in education and teaching. It is because her development has poured into the feelings of teachers and students, and gradually formed a relatively strong cultural atmosphere of civilization, diligence, realism and innovation. It is the formation of this cultural atmosphere that has laid a solid foundation for the further development of the school.
Second, be pragmatic in the work, pay attention to the development of teachers, and pay attention to cultivating teachers' scientific research consciousness.
1. Understanding of being pragmatic. Zeng Hongzhi, director of the guidance office of Xigang Middle School, once thought that "truth" is an objective law and a reality. In the development of the school, we should face up to the reality and laws of the school itself, not only emphasize "planning", but also dare to get out of some strange circles of "falsehood" and "seeking truth"; Furthermore, school management should put "morality" in the first place, and the focus of work should be on education, teaching and students' reality. We should adjust measures to local conditions, suit our schools and teach students in accordance with their aptitude. Don't be afraid of problems, but be good at finding solutions, whether it is the leadership management of the school, the guidance of teachers or the problems of students. This requires "pragmatism", investigation, research, summary and reflection. It is necessary to improve the ideological quality and professional quality of all teachers, make joint efforts and develop together.
As we all know, the head teacher has many trivial matters. The head teacher of Xigang Middle School is good at "fine" words: the school implements the class teacher's sitting system, and the classroom is the office, which implements all-weather management of major and minor issues in the class. It is stipulated in the work system of the class teacher; Every class teacher should have a comprehensive understanding of the family situation, personal hobbies, learning specialties, ideological trends and recent performance of all students in the class, such as a few treasures. And developed a personal growth file for students. Carry out case analysis, investigation and research, and help the special students to the end. If the head teacher can't solve the problem, he should report to the Ministry in a timely, unobtrusive and unpretentious manner. The Ministry will hold a meeting of the head teacher to exchange research on a problem of a class and a student, diagnose together, brainstorm and find a solution. Just like a small teaching and research activity. It can be studied and discussed from the perspective of teaching and research. When talking about this matter, a class teacher said: "Class is a place to improve teachers' awareness of teaching and research, and the way to deal with class affairs flexibly is to improve the ability of managing and educating people. The solution of the problem is a great progress for every teacher. "It truly reflects the work attitude of seeking truth and being pragmatic.
Another example: On May 3rd1day, I observed a live teaching and research activity called "Study on Students with Learning Disabilities" in Xigang District Teachers' Training School. The class was attended by the senior group of Bayi Road Primary School. Very impressive. Eight people participated in the research, including teaching researchers, class teachers, classroom teachers and senior teaching and research team leaders. Next to a boy in Class One, Grade Five. The content of the activity involves students' family situation, personal hobbies, personality characteristics, attitude towards teachers, their current state of mind, the specific number of times of helping and teaching, and shows students' various performances at school. The information is detailed and detailed. Everyone who participated in the activity spoke, and finally the negotiation result came out: every teacher didn't give up ideologically, let the boy's favorite Chinese teacher be the main target of help, and also seize the bright spot and let him preside over the blackboard publicity activities in next week's class. The observation period is one month, and then the analysis and research will be carried out one month later. At this seminar, specific solutions to the problem of students with learning difficulties were also put forward.
This is a solid and effective field teaching and research activity. From beginning to end, the activity revolves around the theme, tells the facts, truly stands from the students' point of view, and puts forward practical solutions without showing off. It can be said that people who participate in the activities get practical exercise and improvement, not just some vague theories.
2. On the cultivation of competition consciousness, innovation consciousness and scientific research consciousness in education and teaching research. These kinds of consciousness are very strong in Xigang Middle School. There is a public opinion position "Golden Idea Salon" in Xigang Middle School, which is held twice a month. After the topic is determined, draw lots to decide the speaker. The theme of the salon involves "class moral education", "network education", "family education", "subject teaching", "subject research", "curriculum reform concept" and "learning confusion and thinking". During the communication, every teacher speaks freely and the school leaders ask questions at any time. This can be used as an evaluation of teachers' theoretical accomplishment and practical concept. Vigorously advocate the valuable new ideas of "Salon" and discuss new problems that cannot be solved at the meeting. The forum actually builds a platform for teachers' self-development. There are competitions, speculative sparks and ideological changes in communication.
The most intense competition is the "academic leader selection activity" held once every semester in Xigang Middle School. The selection procedure is well organized and the selection requirements are very high.
(1) Selection procedures
1, written test: (new curriculum theory accounts for 40%, subject curriculum standards account for 40%, and education and teaching regulations account for 20%. )
2. Evaluation of teachers' morality: school evaluation, teachers' mutual evaluation results and students' grading results.
3. Open class: extract topics, give lectures and attend lectures.
4. The comprehensive strength of two years' teaching achievements.
5, the ability to use computer-aided teaching.
Testing.
6. Performance summary.
(2) Scoring criteria:
35 points for written test, 30 points for teachers' morality 10, 30 points for teaching, 5 points for score summary 10, and 5 points for microcomputer test, * * * 100.
From the procedures and grading standards, we can easily see that it is well-organized, demanding and difficult for participants. It is difficult for teachers to participate if their basic teaching skills are not solid, their theoretical literacy is lacking, their performance is not outstanding, and their evaluation results are not up to standard. But this activity is very popular with teachers. Why? There are two reasons: teachers have a strong sense of self-discipline, pay attention to the exercise of professional skills on weekdays, and are good at self-pressure. The study of new curriculum theory, subject curriculum standards and education and teaching regulations is often a combination of collective learning and self-study; (The leader's inspection and spot check on theoretical study is no longer so important, and the written test results have already explained everything. The second is based on each teacher's affirmation of self-worth, confidence in the three-foot platform, and trust in openness and fairness in the selection process. Dare to accept challenges, face competition directly, be unconventional, and have the courage and courage to innovate.
The six grading standards are actually a test of teachers' comprehensive quality and an exercise for teachers who participate in the whole process. Those who are selected will make persistent efforts to perform the duties of academic leaders. Undertaking a teaching research class or an open class every semester plays a leading role in the teaching of this subject. Undertake scientific research projects in provinces and cities. Undertake the work of class teacher or other education management.
Accept the evaluation conducted by the school every semester: the school carries out multiple evaluations (personal summary, student evaluation and school evaluation) to evaluate three levels: competent, basically competent and "incompetent", and those who are rated as incompetent are eliminated. Being rated as "basically competent" twice will also be eliminated.
There is competition in communication, innovation in competition and development in innovation, which is the knowledge that every teacher in Xigang Middle School has achieved. Come into the classroom, listen to the teacher's lecture and feel the flash of collective wisdom: the "question style" before mathematics, the "speech style" before Chinese and the "composition style" before English. It is a good way for the research group and the teaching and research group to try to succeed in collective lesson preparation and research, and to summarize and reflect on the teaching. The introduction of "problem-based" should be carried out in the science classroom, extended to extracurricular development, and put forward solutions to the problems left by teachers. The introduction of "lecture style" should be to let students recite a beautiful article recommended by themselves in Chinese class, recommend good sentences, explain the reasons for self-recommendation, and ask them to write down their inner feelings about the selected article, and then extract it in their notebooks. The purpose is to serve the composition. The introduction of "composition style" should be in English class. Teachers leave topics in advance, such as "Talking about Dalian's environment". Students copy them on the blackboard, and teachers and students evaluate and modify them. Then copy it in the composition book and practice it once a day. The students who made these three introductory speeches before class were all decided by drawing lots before class, which is consistent with the determination of the speech teacher in the "Golden Idea Salon". The purpose is for everyone to participate, everyone to improve and fair competition.
Teng Pei Jun, president of the school, said at a faculty meeting that every teacher should establish a "bridge" idea, that is, the idea of teamwork, and to abandon the idea of "mahjong" is to abandon the idea of going it alone. Everything should be about cooperation, everything should be solid, and everything should be about scientific research. Seek truth from facts.
Thirdly, humanized moral education management arouses the return of students' independent consciousness.
The concrete practice of "Students' Self-determination Meeting" in Xigang Middle School. The school advocates humanization and democratization in the management of students' moral education, which shows that students are the masters of the school. In this context, the "Student Independent Association" was established. "Student Independent Association" consists of seven departments: Sports Department, Learning Department, Science and Technology Department, Literature and Art Department, Organization Department, Propaganda Department and Editorial Department of School Newspaper. Belongs to the school youth league Committee.
The selection of members of the "Student Self-government Association" is initiated by all members and selected at different levels. Students sign up voluntarily, and the school chooses the best. Its selection and employment procedures are very strict. The program is divided into: written test (the content of the test is 50 points for comprehensive encyclopedia), debate contest (20 points for players to draw lots) and campaign speech (30 points). The judges are composed of students, school leaders and teachers, and the three rounds of results are superimposed as the total scores of the players.
The following is a detailed job assignment submitted by the president of the Student Autonomy Association of the school. (now excerpt. )
1. Chairman and Vice Chairman: Responsible for organizing, planning and supervising the daily and large-scale activities of the school, and always paying attention to everything. It has the function of commanding the overall situation.
2. Organization Department: mainly responsible for flag-raising ceremony and training flag-raisers, checking speeches, filling in records, checking class meetings and moral education month plans. It also mainly undertakes the work of assisting the chairman and vice chairman.
In the course of the work, all departments cooperated well. Besides my own work in this department, I also help other departments to make suggestions together. The plan, process and experience of the activity need to summarize and save the text and video materials.
This semester, the Student Self-determination Association independently participated in the planning of large-scale school activities, including: campus culture and art festival, volleyball competition, comprehensive competition of "Golden Ideas" and "Flying Youth", campus group dance, "Happy English Corner", "English Story Speech", "Willing to talk", "Fun Games" and "Science and Technology Art Festival".
The "student association" in this school truly embodies the "student-oriented" educational concept, trains a large number of student cadres and provides a broad stage for the development of students. Calling students "ministers" is really worthy of the name. It is the real return of students' independent consciousness. The purpose is to prepare for "training leading talents", improve students' organizational ability and expression ability, develop students' specialties, commend outstanding students and set an example for learning.
Four, based on the reality of the school, pay attention to professional guidance, and take the road of scientific research integration.
The concrete practice of national research work. The introduction principles of research (Innovative Writing Teaching Research and Experiment, Comprehensive Evaluation Method of Mathematics, a Key Topic of the Ministry of Education, and Formative Evaluation of English Teaching in Basic Education) are based on the reality of our school, do a good job in research, always pay attention to the research process, and vigorously promote the research results. Eliminate blindness.
The research work of "comprehensive evaluation method of mathematics, a key topic of the Ministry of Education" and "formative evaluation of English teaching in basic education" is close at hand. This paper takes English as an example to briefly introduce its research results.
English teaching is the characteristic of this school. On the basis of the original textbooks, the school has increased the teaching of new concept English and Oxford English, and carried out a variety of English activities, such as English courses, one sentence a day, one motto a week, one song a week, holding foreign language corner activities, reading newspapers and so on. In this year's Maple Leaf Cup Grand Prix, English drama won the first prize in Dalian Textbook Drama Competition.
2. The construction of a multi-evaluation system has taken shape in an all-round way: the evaluation contents and evaluation subjects are diversified. Diversification of evaluation cycle.
The content and subject of evaluation are diversified. The combination of school education and family education, classroom teaching and autonomous learning determines the diversification of evaluation content and evaluation subject.
(1) Teacher-centered evaluation
Learning behaviors related to students' learning in class, such as speeches, notes, feedback and grading of students' papers, are all evaluated with teachers as the main body.
(2) Student-centered evaluation
Learning behaviors related to students' extracurricular autonomous learning, such as extracurricular reading, listening practice, reading practice, keeping an English diary, etc. All of them are student-centered self-evaluations.
(3) Student-centered evaluation.
Some in-class and out-of-class English practices, such as students' duty report and English corner activities, mainly focus on students' mutual evaluation.
(4) Evaluation of teachers and students.
In some competition-oriented English practice activities in and out of class, such as story catching, imitation show, English speech and English sketch performance, teachers and students participate in the evaluation together.
(5) Teachers, students and parents * * * with evaluation.
Teachers, students and parents all adopt the method of * * * evaluation when it comes to the collection of files, questionnaires, students' off-campus study, parents' impression of school education, English activities in and out of class, students' test scores, etc.
Summary evaluation period: (1), before class
evaluate
Teachers evaluate preview notes, make teachers and students interact in class, and improve classroom efficiency with material preparation and knowledge reserve.
(2) Classroom evaluation
In the process of classroom learning, students with active speech, active thinking and good learning efficiency are encouraged by excellent groups.
(3), phased evaluation
Evaluate students in stages during the mid-term and final period, including oral, written and listening, students' test papers, and filling in performance reports. , and create a folder to contain the materials in the learning process. Such as: self-evaluation form of students' learning attitude, my most satisfactory calligraphy (English), my imitation show tape, word and phrase competition paper, English test paper I designed, my periodic report and so on.
(4) Deferred evaluation
For those students who have not achieved satisfactory results in different periods of evaluation, delayed evaluation is adopted.
An experimental teacher passed the senior high school entrance examination in Grade Three last year. Class One achieved remarkable results, with an average score of 95.04 (out of 65,438+000) on paper A and 65,438+026.5 (out of 65,438+050) on paper AB, and 52% of the students achieved excellent results on paper AB, which won unanimous praise from parents and schools.
On Curriculum Reform and the Practice of School-based Research
1, adopting a top-down democratic way, teachers put forward the problems that the school urgently needs to solve at present, summarize, study and determine the topics, and then organize teachers' discussion in the "Golden Idea Salon". This semester, the school has successfully held three issues, and published essays on how to create a relaxed and harmonious classroom atmosphere, appreciation education and homework.
2. Four school-based training methods have been formed:
Learning: refers to theoretical learning, combining concentration with self-study, and editing and distributing Xigang Middle School Theoretical Learning Monthly every month to encourage teachers to actively participate.
Lectures: organize curriculum reform and school-based lectures.
Research: Strengthen the discussion between curriculum reform and school-based in the activities of teaching and research group.
Reality: implement in practice. Don't generalize, put the gains from studying, attending lectures and holding seminars into education, and put them into every link of preparing lessons and teaching classes well.
3. In the aspect of curriculum management, the organizational system has been innovated.
It is constructed from two levels: first, the leading organization for the purpose of organization and management, that is, the leading group with the principal as the leader, the vice president in charge as the deputy leader, and the guidance office and the teaching and research team leader as members; Second, the online curriculum reform study group with the teaching and research group as the unit (1) (the head of the teaching and research group is responsible); The second is to take the history discipline as the leader, drive the newly reformed discipline, and radiate it to other unchanged grades. The third is to set up research groups, such as comprehensive practical activities, information technology and discipline integration, bilingual teaching ... and supervise the operation through monthly regular meetings and monthly group research classes. This cross-organizational form and operating mechanism ensure that every teacher is in a certain relationship, thus performing their duties and responsibilities, which greatly mobilizes the enthusiasm of all teachers to participate in the research and practice of curriculum reform.
Five, some understanding and thinking:
1, the level of a school's social reputation stems from the level of school education and teaching achievements, and the key to the quality of education and teaching is to have a group of leading cadres who understand teaching management, a group of dedicated teachers and pragmatic work style. Xigang Middle School just organically combines these three aspects. Gradually condensed into their own school culture.
2. In education and scientific research, everything is meticulous, the process is solid, and there is no show. Class and discussion, theory and practice, try and improve; Practice and theory, reflection and summary, experience and popularization. They are all very attentive.
3. The development of students' ability. Pay attention to diversified development and evaluation. Pay attention to all aspects of development. In addition to academic achievements, they also provide students with various stages to show themselves: campus flower art festival, student self-government meeting, science and technology culture art festival, network information technology competition and so on.
4. The assessment of teachers adopts multiple evaluation methods (the last elimination system), and at the end of the period, schools, teachers and students (according to a certain proportion) jointly evaluate. Teachers who are rated as incompetent will apply for it themselves. Choose another school. If you can't choose a school, you will be laid off and find your own way. Strict and ruthless.
5. About the shift system. This is stipulated by Dalian Education Bureau. No lunch break at noon (1 1: 40 after school, 1: 00 officially entered the classroom). Teachers and students sometimes have poor energy.
6. The system of running a school for more than four years, which has won a high social reputation for Xigang Middle School. In the second half of this year, the school will be transformed into a private school. Whether it is a one-time buyout or installment payment, it is a transitional type. The current injury is inconclusive. Whether the source of teachers can be guaranteed and whether Xigang Middle School can continue to be brilliant, facing the prospect, the majority of teachers in Xigang Middle School are worried.
