Who should read campus slogans?

Every school has school mottos, slogans, slogans of one kind or another to set off the educational atmosphere of the school. Taking our institute as an example, the slogans include the school motto "Unity, Diligence, Seeking Truth, and Innovation", "Let students become talents, reassure parents, satisfy society, and establish a new trend of civilization", and "Be a role model for others, be dedicated to work, and be rigorous." Study hard and keep pace with the times”, “Student safety is more important than Mount Tai”, “No climbing”, “Please do not pick”, etc. And most of the school slogans I saw were very different.

I think the school motto is the standard and requirement that all students in the school must meet, and it is indispensable. As for other slogans and slogans, some are requirements for teachers, some are requirements for schools, and some are requirements for education as a whole. Most of them are meant to be seen by teachers, parents, and leaders who come to the school to inspect the work. It has little to do with students. Writing on the wall, students turn a blind eye, it is like a performance without an audience, it is boring and loses its educational role.

School is a place for students to achieve success. It is the main base for educating students to become adults and talents. It is the only way for everyone to grow. Everyone in the school, from the principal to the staff, serves the students; the school's objects, including the environment and visible objects, should also serve the students. Therefore, I advocate here to get rid of the utilitarian, adult, and generalization of school slogans, and return them to be practical, childlike, and interesting. Schools at different levels should determine school slogans for different students. Primary schools, middle schools, and universities have different psychological needs, aesthetic tastes, and world views of students at each stage. Campus slogans should also be designed according to the age characteristics of students.

For example, in primary schools, the placards on the flower stands can be designed with cartoon images that students like. "Little feet don't run around, the grass is sleeping" is much better than "Please take care of the flowers and plants" and "No entry". The campus slogan reads "Believe that you are the best!" to build the self-confidence of students, especially those with poor academic performance and discipline; "Boldly say: 'I think...'" to cultivate students to communicate with others and not blindly follow others, The ability to dare to express one's own opinions; "You are the best!" to teach students to praise others, bow to the truth and facts, and eliminate the phenomenon of "little princesses" and "little emperors" losing their temper and crying at the first place. Helps cultivate the healthy mind of primary school students and eliminate jealousy. "I want to thank those who told me my shortcomings." to correct the mentality of primary school students who only listen to complimentary words but not criticism. In addition, the civilized and polite education and nurturing education of primary school students are also the formative stage of life, and some polite words such as "please, thank you, sorry, hello, I was wrong, etc." should be added.

Chang Si Chinese people are too strict, strict in speaking and doing things, and do not smile or speak. You often like to watch foreign films. Are you intoxicated by the humor of the protagonists? On the traffic warning signs in China, "Accident-prone areas" are painted with a skeleton and two dead bones underneath, which makes the driver's hair stand on end and suddenly become nervous. A warning sign on a curve on a foreign highway reads, "If you want to wash your car, please drive straight." The driver can't help but laugh, knowing how to turn and eliminating the fatigue of driving.

I definitely don’t mean to worship foreigners. I just want campus slogans not to be too strict and rigid. Just imagine, students can still be innocent and happy in such a serious atmosphere with eye-catching slogans? In the context of directives, are there any counter-intuitive thoughts of "I insist on giving it a try"? The school's slogan not only provides guidance for students' growth, but also reflects respect for students; it not only tells students what to do, but is also humorous; it is educational, catchy, and easy for students to remember. is the best.
