Characteristics of Linqu Foreign Language School
Facing the tide of basic education reform, Linqu Foreign Language School adheres to its origin while pursuing dreams, adheres to the principle of taking students as the foundation, and teaches people to seek truth, which has laid a solid foundation for students' lifelong development.
2065438+On April 24th, 2004, Shandong Exercise Teaching Observation Seminar was held in Linqu Foreign Language School. Walking into this school which is surrounded by mountains and rivers and has an elegant environment, we can see that the campus layout is unique, the campus building is beautifully shaped and the school conditions are superior and comfortable ... However, what makes people feel the deepest is the original and fresh vitality of the school. The construction of school culture is the spiritual power of school development. The reason why school culture construction has become a direction guide is that its concept of truth, goodness and beauty has enabled people to find the foundation of school development.
"To run a school well, the first thing is not the hardware construction, but the construction of the school spirit and soul." President Liu Xinyong has been thinking about: As a new school, what kind of school-running concept should Linqu Foreign Language School build, so as to truly reflect the school-running purpose, school-running goal and school-running strategy, so as to form a common vision of all teachers and students? To this end, he presided over many teachers' symposiums, made a special trip to ask famous teachers for guidance, and established the school's "three styles and one training" on the basis of in-depth discussion and repeated argumentation.
Teaching style: due diligence
Due diligence is duty and responsibility; It is the bottom line requirement and the highest realm. Teach with meditation, concentrate on educating people, love their jobs and be self-reliant.
Style of study: do your best.
Learning is the first step, and learning is the most important. Do your best with your heart and do your best with your strength. Aim high, be down-to-earth, work hard and succeed.
School spirit: perfect
Truth, goodness and beauty are the essence of education. The pursuit of goodness, the pursuit of beauty and the foundation of truth explain the educational concept and value pursuit of the school. "There is no best, only better", striving for perfection.
Motto: Hengyuan
The school motto determines the educational behavior of the school group, guides the direction of running a school and locates the brand image of the school.
Ten years of trees, a hundred years of tree people; Adhere to this principle and innovate.
People are ambitious, ambitious and unchangeable; Persistence will definitely make you go further.
"Three Styles and One Training" has no flashy whitewash, showing its simplicity and beauty, and interpreting the school-running culture and value pursuit. The real pursuit of education, the ultimate destination is the growth of students now and the future development. The soul of educational reform is the renewal of educational ideas, and the realization of educational ideas will ultimately be reflected in the implementation of courses.
Linqu Foreign Language School has perfected the curriculum structure of compulsory courses and elective courses, forming a "one body and two wings" curriculum system. According to personal hobbies, students voluntarily sign up for their favorite courses in grade, forming a situation of "everyone chooses courses and has their own specialties". Since the formal establishment of the school, according to the wishes of students, more than 30 societies have been established in four categories: art and sports, literature, life education and disciplines.
Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, students take elective courses.
Students in sports clubs like to go to stadiums and gymnasiums. They are full of vigor and vitality, or learn skills or compete in the same field, and their faces are full of happiness and joy.
The students of the dance club walked into the rehearsal hall, and under the careful guidance of the teachers, they practiced with relish with beautiful music and elegant and free and easy posture. These little dancers are already very famous. They are active in many social activities.
The painting and calligraphy club has a full-time art teacher as the main lecturer and tutor. Their profound artistic foundation has enabled students to be influenced by professional art and laid a solid foundation.
In the ceramic club, students are unrestrained, bold in imagination and show endless innovative spirit in the process of playing. In the "My Ideal Car" activity, the students created various cars, two-wheeled cars and a three-story "My World" activity. The students built shelters for animals and plants and lived happily with them.
Life education, science and technology production, small chefs, skillful workshops and other community activities are also vivid. Zhao, the instructor of the science and technology community, said: "Every time I walk into my community cabin and see every child in the community, I feel fresh and enthusiastic. In the face of children's strong curiosity and desire to explore, I always have a sense of satisfaction. "
Ivy League, Dream Light and Shadow Corner, English Salon, Newton Club, Mathematics Paradise, Future Chemist ... The activities of subject societies are even more colorful. IvyEnglishClub (Ivy English Club) is a strong club built by the school. English radio stations regularly broadcast campus English, English weather forecast and English classic songs every morning and evening. Fantasy Light and Shadow Corner organizes an English "Talk about Heaven and Earth" every other week and watches a foreign original cartoon every other week; The foreign teachers hired regularly introduce historical events, celebrities and famous schools in Europe and America to students in the form of themes. ...
Diversified and characteristic curriculum activity system has realized the transformation of curriculum structure from single to multiple, and colorful courses have met students' various needs and are deeply loved by students. The ultimate goal of education is not only to impart existing knowledge, but also to induce people's creativity and awaken people's life consciousness and value. Therefore, the classroom should be an educational Yuan Ye that respects, cultivates and releases life.
How can students enjoy their childhood and care while enjoying their studies and classes? Let the teacher's "teaching" and the students' "learning" no longer be out of touch? Let the choice and ability of work no longer be arbitrary?
Linqu Foreign Language School further promoted the classroom teaching reform, put forward the authentic classroom of "Three Navigation Guides" and compiled Happy Navigation.
"The way students learn is the way teachers teach." This educational thought of Mr. Tao Xingzhi is an important basis for designing "Happy Navigation". Happy navigation is a text that integrates teaching plans, learning plans and homework for teachers, parents and students. For teachers, it is a lesson plan, for students, it is a study plan and homework, and for parents, it is a reference book. With a book in hand, teachers have no worries, students have no worries, and parents have no doubts.
"Happy sailing" is divided into three sections: interesting sailing-happy sailing-sailing. Set sail independently and preview, so as to be aware of it; Navigation cooperative learning, so as to be targeted; The voyage is expanded and supplemented, so that it can be upgraded and its personality is also displayed in * * * *.
According to the characteristics of students and textbooks, all subjects and grades form their own characteristic plates; The lower grades are lively and lively, and the upper grades are solid and effective.
For example, Happy Navigation, the first volume of the fifth grade Chinese, is divided into five modules: target instrument, navigation needle, navigation line, navigation chapter and evaluation column based on the principle of happy growth and efficient wisdom.
The target instrument determines the direction;
Sailing needle has columns such as "thorough word search", "text retrieval", "knowing in your heart" and "having doubts in your heart" to guide students to preview independently;
In the navigation line, there are columns such as "reading for enlightenment", "learning for gain" and "route extension" to guide students to think, read aloud, accumulate and improve;
Navigation articles-selected exercises, for the purpose of training, so that students can gain something;
Evaluation column-summary evaluation combines self-evaluation, group evaluation and teacher evaluation to quantify students' learning, which not only implements classroom objectives, but also stimulates students' learning motivation.
Mathematics is the same as English. The three main modules are refined separately, with vivid illustrations and timely explanations to accompany students to study happily and help teachers to teach easily. The authentic classroom, which seems unpretentious, is full of real, natural, fresh and healthy vitality under the deduction of teachers and students.
Thus, the "three modernizations" came into being.
Standardization of classroom teaching-"Three Navigation Guidance" enables teachers with different personalities and characteristics to have the same teaching norms. Although teachers' teaching styles are varied and the knowledge content of each subject is far from perfect, through "sailing, piloting and sailing", preview, study and review are streamlined and standardized, teachers are promoted to allocate teaching time reasonably, teaching process is flexibly adjusted, and students' homework is strictly regulated.
Classroom learning autonomy-"Three Navigation Guidance" makes students benefit more. From the preparation guidance of navigation, to the classroom practice of navigation, and then to the promotion and expansion of navigation, students have rules to follow, and their ability of independent learning and active learning has been improved. The former "waiting for the teacher to teach" has become the present "learning by yourself". Teachers leave the space for thinking to students, and return the time for reading and thinking to students. The students were deeply touched: "Thanks to the teacher for tailoring this book for us in his busy schedule. Doing homework has become exciting and fun. When previewing, attending classes and reviewing, it is my inseparable good friend, and I like to play with it. "
Classroom homework-homework has changed from the previous pursuit of quantity to the present pursuit of quality, and has realized the "qualitative change" of teachers from homework to homework design, put an end to invalid homework and reduce the burden on students. Traditional homework is mainly based on review and consolidation. The current homework design starts from the development of students, pays more attention to the cultivation of students' innovative ability, thinking ability and practical ability, and strives for various forms, including listening, speaking, reading and writing. Infiltrating the quality education of music, physical education and beauty into the teaching of cultural subjects, there are not only descriptions of the heart, but also elegance of recording and reading aloud, and even practical lessons ... It fully stimulates students' interest in doing homework, extends the classroom to extracurricular activities, and allows students to fully enjoy their studies. The students expressed their love for Happy Navigation: "Every time I walk into Happy Navigation, I feel the joy of learning. The colorful world and the happiness of intellectual challenges, happy navigation is really our good helper! " If you are clumsy, you are silent. This is the management art that every excellent school administrator should possess. Traceless management is effective management, which is the high realm of management.
Sun Tzu said, "Let vegetarians get along with others." The "acquisition" here is a state of mutual recognition between superiors and subordinates. If this state is reached, why should schools worry that the leaders' decisions will not be observed and implemented?
Faced with various forms of work sign-in, foreign language schools have never implemented sign-in and sign-out since its establishment. The system of no sign-in gives teachers full respect and trust, and this state of no repression makes teachers more conscious and self-disciplined Pursuing real management and realizing the harmony between teachers, students and schools can achieve the unity of heaven and man and make everyone happy.
Let every teacher and student become the master of the school, from the principal to the newly enrolled children, equal to each other. Every teacher and student has their own right to know, to speak and to participate in all school-running activities.
We are the masters of the school: teachers participate in and discuss state affairs.
Participate in the daily management of the school-realized at the weekly meeting. Teachers come with their own ideas and suggestions, and the school ensures that all opinions are listened to, taken seriously and answered in time. The way suggested by the teacher can be face-to-face instruction or written examination. Weekly suggestions arouse teachers' awareness of finding and solving problems. Everyone catches a problem with keen eyes, some care about the life of teachers and students, some care about the development of the school, and glow with great enthusiasm for work.
Participate in the recent school management-put forward at the monthly school affairs meeting. The school asked teachers' representatives elected by ministries and commissions at all levels to check the implementation of school work last month, sum up the work and find problems as the main content of the meeting. From a certain link in teaching to the implementation of this month's plan and school management in each office, decisions are made on this basis.
Participate in the long-term management of the school-highlight it at the school teachers' congress. Review the school development plan, work plan, various rules and regulations and school budget and final accounts, evaluate the management of school institutions and personnel, put forward rectification opinions, and participate in the macro management of school work. It is with such a set of effective management measures that the scientific and executable decision-making of the school is guaranteed.
We are the masters of the school: self-management.
Make a convention, standardize students' behavior, and restrain students —— On the basis of the Code of Daily Behavior for Primary and Secondary School Students, each class has made a unique class convention, and good behavior is accompanied by children's growth.
Open Sunshine Bank, preserve students' advantages and give encouragement-"Sunshine Bank" imitates the form of bank savings, and guides students to convert their outstanding behaviors at school into certain scores and deposit them in "Sunshine Bank", so as to get a certain share in exchange for corresponding rewards, and children feel fresh.
Equip students with The monitor on duty, give them rights and give them responsibilities-equip each class with The monitor on duty brand, establish the The monitor on duty system, and take turns to be The monitor on duty according to the student number. The monitor on duty is solely responsible for class affairs, and the executive monitor assists in the work. The monitor on duty is responsible for checking the health and discipline of the day, urging each student to do his own work, recording the class affairs log, and checking the work of other class cadres. The The monitor on duty system allows every child to participate in class management.
The authentic management mode with the development of teachers and students as the core of the school has pushed teachers and students onto the stage of self-management. In such a natural and simple atmosphere, students will grow up happily, teachers will gain professional happiness, true knowledge, true feelings, unadorned nature, and wash away the beauty of lead China, which will definitely ripple in the campus.
