Cheng Hongbing believes: “The biggest problem in Chinese education now is that Chinese teachers have poor skills and do not read books. The teaching staff has no humanistic accumulation, insufficient understanding and analysis of the text, and there is no knowledge gap with the students. "In fact, is this just a problem for Chinese teachers? Most teachers basically do not read other books except textbooks, teaching reference materials, and teaching aids. They do not understand the cutting-edge of their own disciplines and have little understanding of the development of education. The new situation is unknown, which greatly restricts the professional growth of teachers.
Wu Fei borrowed the words of a philosopher: A person's future depends on whether he reads. What kind of books do you read? Hua Yinglong believes: “Some people can read a lot, while others gain very little. The difference mainly lies in the depth of reading. ”
Ask yourself, I should be considered a person who likes to read, but what are the aspects of the books I read? Can I have the patience to read classic and theoretical things? I also read them occasionally. Let’s take a look at the books on education. After reading the books written by 15 famous teachers, I really feel ashamed. I have not read most of the books they read. From this point of view, I cannot be considered a person who likes reading and can read. Because I have never been a person who likes to "climb uphill", I only realized the crux of my reading when I saw teacher Yan Xue's suggestion of "reading with a slope" and "reading focuses on improving the teacher's knowledge structure".
2. Think more: There are ways to read, and the results are in the classroom
After reading this book, I think the second key word should be "thinking", which means to Only by combining reading with your own life can you gain something. As teacher Yan Xue said, "My growth history is a history of reading that improves my knowledge structure, a history of writing that I keep writing, and a history of continuous reflection. " Teacher Wang Songzhou also said, "Only by immersing yourself in it wholeheartedly, observing it personally, and reading it carefully can you gain something, accumulate something, and transform it into the foundation of life. When reading, Teacher Yu Yongzheng prefers to put himself into the book and his work into the book. He said this: "I like to think about myself when I read. I read with the attitude of looking for wisdom, ideas and methods from books. If reading is not connected with myself and work, and if I don't use it, it will be useless to me." For me, reading has lost most of its meaning."
As for pondering and thinking when reading, I think it is a reading habit. And under all the pressure from the school, I slowly developed this habit. For example, when I was reading, I also started to draw circles and start thinking about how to use the knowledge in the book in conjunction with my own work. In fact, these are all due to the need to write down the reading experience after reading, so when I start reading, I will think about how to write the experience while reading. In fact, the process of writing the reading experience is to think about how to connect it with my own life and work, and integrate it into it. process. In this way, I should be grateful that every book must have a reading experience, and every month I must upload an article to gain insights from reading.
There is a big difference in the classroom performance between teachers who like to read and teachers who don’t like to read.
Just like what Mr. Ji Xianlin said to young people, "When you study, you must achieve three penetrations: the first is the penetration of Chinese and Western knowledge, the second is the penetration of ancient and modern times, and the third is the penetration of liberal arts and science. Once you achieve these three penetrations, Then your cultural heritage becomes generous and solid like the base of the pyramid."
3. Use more pens: read your true self and lay the foundation for multiple colors
These are 15 famous teachers. The same thing. Write reading experiences, take reading notes, write study notes, etc. Each of the 15 famous teachers should have hundreds of thousands of words of notes, experiences and the like. Therefore, whether it is a Chinese teacher with quick writing skills or a mathematics teacher with mainly rational thinking, which famous teacher has not published several books? Most of these books undoubtedly come from their daily accumulation.
Actually, I have been told by my seniors from the very beginning of my work to use more pens. I remember when I first started working, a senior introduced me to another young senior and said, "She started writing a class teacher's work diary from the beginning when she became a class teacher. This is why she grew up so fast." Therefore, as a class teacher, In the past five years, although I had little experience, I insisted on writing a "class teacher's work diary" as I continued to learn. Therefore, I took out the work diary for several class teacher essay competitions. Now I am no longer a class teacher, I am engaged in educational management, and I have started to write an educational life diary. Keep writing.
The process of reading is actually a process of continuous exploration in two aspects.
One direction is to look inward, constantly explore your own heart, and try to understand yourself correctly. Wang Songzhou said: "We continue to seek outside, our hearts become fragmented, and we pay less and less attention to our inner needs. In fact, reading is the only way for people to find themselves and perceive their existence." Dou Guimei emphasized You must be highly sensitive to words while reading. "With the power of literature, it is a very happy thing for a Chinese teacher to radiate the emotions accumulated in his heart and diffuse them into the classroom."
The other direction is to look outward, constantly exploring areas related to your life and work, and constructing your own understanding of the world. Li Zhenxi said that the theme faced by educators at home and abroad in ancient and modern times is the same and eternal, which is "human liberation" and the resulting understanding of human nature, personality, creativity, teacher-student relationships, schools and society, Thinking and exploration of a series of fundamental issues such as education and life. This is his understanding of the world of education.
"Reading is actually a date with the author, making you happy with their happiness and sad with their sadness." Zhang Yunying's words may well represent the voice of many readers. What Zhong Zhinong said is also very interesting: "Life is short, and good books are like people. If you miss it, you will miss it forever. I don't want to leave with regrets."
Teachers falling in love with reading will have an impact on students' reading. important impact. Yu Yongzheng said: "When you are a student, you must read more classic works, which will lay the foundation for life." Wu Fei even emphasized: "Education is to teach students to think, and cultivate a kind of thinking through extensive reading. Only in this way can we have a better understanding of various historical and social phenomena. "If a person reaches the age of seventeen or eighteen and still does not realize the importance of the humanistic spirit and does not have the awareness to think independently, he will not be able to hope to enter university. After practicing again, there are already many holes in temperament, mind and education that cannot be filled.”
Today’s teachers and students, living in the flood of Internet information society, have more to cultivate in reading habits. obstacle. The rapid and fragmented means of information dissemination and the popularity of shallow reading have had a great impact on reading. For this reason, Hua Yinglong specially reminds everyone: "Stop surfing the Internet, as surfing the Internet will inadvertently lose our reading time." Karl, the author of "Shallow: How the Internet Poisons Our Brains," also said: "From paper to screen, It’s not just the way we read that changes, it also affects the degree of concentration we devote to reading and the depth of immersion in reading.”
Medical scientists have come to a reliable conclusion after research: expression. Focused people live longer. For example, calligraphers generally live longer than ordinary people. Because when practicing calligraphy, you must concentrate on it, get rid of distracting thoughts, concentrate your mind, sink your energy in your Dantian, unite your heart and hands, and master your pen with your mind without any distraction.
When a person devotes himself to a favorite cause, he will naturally be immersed in a pleasant mood, do it with all his strength, do it with all his heart, and do it calmly. In the process of his full devotion, he naturally found himself in a supreme state of tranquility and far-reaching, forgetting both things and myself. This state can make people happy and forget their worries, and can enhance the body's immune function. Reading, can’t it bring us such a state?
This book is the one I have drawn the most and folded the most, because this book has too many words about reading that I like, and there are too many that fit my thoughts, so it is One of my favorite books. When I read about teachers Dou Guimei, Wu Zhengxian, and Wang Songzhou, I even searched for their class videos on the Internet. I wanted to take a closer look at what the classroom of such a well-educated teacher was like.
When I was studying, I felt that I lacked too much, so I started by "making up for what I lacked." For the rest of 2020, my challenge is to seriously study at least one book in each field, especially theoretical ones. Teacher Cheng Hongbing said: "The difference between famous teachers and ordinary teachers lies in resilience and persistence. Reading can influence people, and persisting in reading and thinking constantly is the key to changing people." Therefore, do your best, read carefully and cherish every moment What a good book! It can provide guidance for teachers who have not really embarked on the path of educational reading. Of course, for teachers, it is not necessary to pursue fame and a family. However, by following the correct path of reading, teachers can enrich their spirit, broaden their career, improve their literacy through uninterrupted reading, and let reading encounter the beauty of life growth!
