We have always attached great importance to the teaching quality of major subjects, but what about other technical subjects? Among the academic subjects, calligraphy is one of the least competitive subjects. The main reasons are: (1) So far, there is no officially organized subject examination for primary school calligraphy. The subject inspection organized by the county was limited to writing posture. Even for writing posture, the official did not give a practical evaluation standard. The teacher who went to invigilate the exam said that if it is right, it is right, and if it is wrong, it is wrong. , which is relatively subjective; there is no teaching reference material or textbook. Through efforts, the county has compiled a county-edited calligraphy textbook "Calligraphy", but there are no relevant teaching references, teaching syllabus, teaching objectives, evaluation criteria, etc. Specific settings; There are no related supporting homework books distributed, neither hard pens nor writing brushes. The calligraphy homework books in primary schools today are generally square manuscript paper arranged by the school, and the writing brushes are large regular scripts that have been used for decades. Without exams, teachers will not be under pressure, so give students a message. It doesn't matter if they write well or poorly, so they can be taken seriously or not. (2) In the actual operation of the calligraphy subject, except that the teaching of hard-pen calligraphy basically meets the 40-minute classroom time of primary school, the brush calligraphy is basically scratching the itch. All 40 minutes of practice is not enough. How to explain the demonstration and evaluation? There is one calligraphy class a week. Schools that pay more attention to it usually organize 2 or 30 minutes to practice at noon, or connect it with Chinese writing, and practice 2 or 3 pictures at home every week. Then the effect of the practice will naturally be different. . If you just practice without checking or check without criticizing, then there is no need to worry about the next homework situation. (3) In the specific training, the specific requirements of the calligraphy subject conflict with the requirements of school cleaning and personal hygiene. In addition, as far as the facilities for calligraphy practice are concerned, today’s desks are basically not large enough for brush calligraphy practice. Some schools Even if the dedicated calligraphy classroom is in use, it can only be used by one class. What if the school is larger and has 2 or 3 classes taking calligraphy classes at the same time? Therefore, we can only make do with teaching, teachers and students, and the quality of teaching in the calligraphy subject can only be compromised. Under such circumstances, it is understandable that calligraphy classes are not taken seriously. 2. Problem Analysis The reason why the calligraphy subject is marginalized is mostly due to the different considerations of primary and secondary goals of all parties. Among them: (1) Considering from the school level, on the premise of taking the teaching quality of the main subjects as the premise, for the school Calligraphy, one of the arts education, can at most be a formality. A calligraphy interest group (or what is now popularly called a society) is symbolically opened, and individual teachers in the school who are good at calligraphy (or are reasonably good at it) are organized to conduct training every now and then to cope with it. Various calligraphy competitions above. (2) At the teacher level, since the high school entrance examination and the college entrance examination still use scores as the baton (the primary school graduation exam is also based on scores), the "question sea tactic" must be the first choice of most teachers, focusing on students' performance in major subjects. No matter what, even if the teacher sees that the students' handwriting is not good, he can say a few words at most: "Nowadays, the handwriting of students is...", or if he can't stand it anymore, he will take it to class and lose his temper, accusing the students of not paying attention to their homework. Good, without further paying attention to the actual writing situation of children. In addition, considering the current working conditions of teachers, there is really not much energy to pay attention to these; (3) For students, there are too many homeworks and too much play. If they have less time, they must increase their writing speed in order to complete relevant homework (or tasks) as soon as possible. The purpose is to have more free time; (4) As for the parent level, Their attention is basically focused on the academic performance and scores of their children's main subjects. It is impossible (or rarely) to pay attention to their hand shape and sitting posture, and they rarely pay attention to their writing level. Under such circumstances, it is reasonable for students not to regard calligraphy as calligraphy! 3. Measures and countermeasures (1) Give students an experience and let them deeply feel the importance of calligraphy learning. “Master the correct writing posture and pen holding method, and develop good writing habits.
"The new curriculum standards require teachers to make full use of classroom teaching and conduct repeated and rigorous calligraphy skill training based on students' actual conditions during the teaching process. At the same time, it is necessary to let students know that correct writing posture is the prerequisite and important component of the formation of calligraphy skills. , Developing good writing habits is one of the important criteria for students to become successful, so that they can actively cultivate themselves in their daily studies, learn from the essence of the motherland's thousands of years of calligraphy and the profound historical and cultural accumulation, and truly learn from it. The courtesy, neatness, dignity, and meticulousness of calligraphy are integrated into one's own growth. It can be imagined that a student who writes seriously and neatly will be meticulous and strive for excellence in his work and study, and he will also be fair and modest in his behavior (2). ) gives teachers a concept to solidly control this aspect of classroom writing training. The biggest difference between calligraphy and other subjects is skill development and evaluation standards. In terms of skill development, art, music and other academic subjects are not very different from them. In many cases, in addition to the students' hard work and hard work, they rely on the teachers' example and strict supervision; however, in terms of evaluation standards, different calligraphy styles, different pens, and different public aesthetics have formed The coexistence of multiple evaluations also makes the practice of calligraphy skills multi-directional and unstable. Moreover, the age characteristics of primary school students lead to their short attention span and loose self-requirements. Therefore, teachers must strictly ensure that classroom writing training is solid and effective. , can encourage students to further pursue a higher level of calligraphy practice (3) Give parents a concept to ensure that their writing at home does not rebound. Calligraphy homework is different from homework in other subjects, and homework at school and at home are different (the so-called 5 2 = 0). The results of 5 days of teacher supervision were all wasted by 2 days of relaxation at home. In order to minimize this. When situations arise, teachers should not only correct homework in a timely manner (preferably face-to-face), provide individual tutoring, and allow students to supervise each other, but they should also strengthen contact with parents. Even in rural areas, with the changes in family living conditions and the overall parent team. With the improvement of quality (and this proportion will increase year by year), except for a small number of parents, most parents attach great importance to their children's handwriting. A telephone line is a bridge. Students are strictly supervised at school and at home. , the importance of calligraphy will become increasingly prominent, and good writing habits and writing skills will be formed. In turn, if good writing habits and writing skills are formed, there will be no reason not to regard calligraphy as calligraphy. 4. Conclusion. Good calligraphy is not something that can be achieved overnight. As the saying goes, "It takes a long time and hard work, but also requires inner needs and attention in the rapid transmission of information and cherishing time." In the golden 21st century, will anyone still be willing to spend years, ten or even decades on pen and ink? In an era where printers and copiers are everywhere, because most of us will not be able to in the end. To become a famous calligrapher, the quality of personal calligraphy skills is indeed nothing in the eyes of ordinary people. However, calligraphy, one of the inheritance of Chinese civilization for thousands of years, is enthusiastically sought after abroad. There are many people practicing calligraphy in Japan, South Korea and other countries. Isn't this the charm of calligraphy, an ancient art? As an educator, especially when you are a calligraphy teacher, why shouldn't you think deeply?
