In view of the prominent problems in the compulsory education stage - the excessive burden of homework and off-campus training of primary and secondary school students, the "double reduction" policy was introduced, and all primary and secondary schools across the country responded positively, moving forward in the direction of strengthening the main position of school education and effectively reducing the burden on students.
The "double subtraction" has been rapidly spread throughout the country from top to bottom, and has been in the past hundred days. How effective is the promotion of "double reduction" in various places, and how much do students, parents and teachers have gained?
Students are happy
Homework is not boring And fun after class
This new semester, students were pleasantly surprised to find that the homework was not only less, but also more interesting, and it was not only rewarding but also interesting after completion.
When it was time for school to end, a group of children wearing school uniforms lined up at the entrance of the Futian District Academy of Education in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, reciting ancient poems and famous quotes loudly, and walked out of the school gate with great energy, which surprised passers-by. It turned out that this was the homework assigned by the school to "chant out of the school gate". According to the students' usual homework performance, the school also selects the "chanting master" at the end of the term, and sends the children a "chanting pass card", and carries out the chanting examination activity according to the task list on the "level".
Liu Bo, the school's academic director, said that through the fun-filled way of "chanting out of the school gate" and "chanting the examination level", combined with the form of rushing and upgrading with the meaning of "game", students' memories of ancient poems are consolidated. Students memorizing ancient poems have reached the level of "handy" and "blurted out".
While feeling that homework was reduced, students also unexpectedly found that there was more time after class and more cultural and sports activities.
"Now, I have more time to spend with my family and cultivate hobbies. I also participated in the school's etiquette club and the Zhongshan Juvenile Speaking Club, where I could discuss my own insights with my classmates and increase my insights. Hu Xiwen, a student of Shenzhen Zhongshan Primary School, said that the school has carried out a variety of interest groups and club activities, and the teachers have opened as many as 62 clubs, including chorus, folk music, Peking opera, basketball, football, hosting, paper-cutting, origami, English drama, maker, etc., which makes her pick her eyes.
Recently, Han Han, a fourth-grade student at the Yinshan Campus of Tiantao Experimental School in Nanning, Guangxi, was particularly happy: "After two lessons of experience, I completely liked sand painting because it not only improved my hands-on ability and concentration, but also improved my painting level." The reporter saw that the campus was very lively after school, and special after-school services such as roller skating, ping-pong, badminton, chorus, musical instruments, and sand painting were carried out with great sound. More than 1,600 students participated in 48 special courses in the school, and teachers of all comprehensive courses offered special courses.
Parents are assured
Good hosting service Urgent and difficult to solve
The implementation of the "double reduction" not only effectively reduces the burden on students, but also effectively responds to the urgent difficulties and expectations of some parents. In the past, many parents were worried that "their children were out of school and their parents did not leave work", and they were more worried about tutoring their children's homework. With the development of after-school services in schools, the problem of "difficulty in picking up and dropping off" for some parents is gradually being solved.
"In the past, the children were out of school, we had not yet left work, and picking up the children was a big problem for the family. Since the school has an after-school delay service, this has not been a problem anymore. "The delayed service of BeizhongLiu Primary School in Qingshan District, Baotou City, Inner Mongolia has really solved the big problem of the mother of fifth-grade student Pang Yuedi.
During the "homework hour" from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m., students from KitaShige No.6 Elementary School complete their homework under the guidance of their teachers. Then the "literacy moment" began, children can freely choose more than 20 kinds of literacy micro-lessons such as synchronized skipping rope, football, chess and so on. For some parents who have difficulties in picking up their children on time, the school also provides a "companionship time" extended service, and students can continue to stay in school until their parents come to pick them up after work, realizing seamless docking between home and school.
Recently, after-school services in Nankai District, Tianjin have also brightened parents' eyes. Tianjin Nankai District combines after-school services and homework management, teaching according to aptitude, sets up after-school service "project menus" at different grades and levels, and actively explores more than 200 minor theme education activities in 6 categories, such as red culture, scientific exploration, cultural and sports competitions, art appreciation, labor practice, and mental health. Nankai District also gives full play to the advantages of professional teachers in the District Children's Palace, and guides schools to carry out small hosts, performances and singing, choruses, painting and other club activities. After-school services are increasingly attractive to children, and parents are more at ease.
What reassures parents is not only the high-quality after-school service provided by the school, but also the effective homework tutoring after class. The "double reduction" policy requires teachers in all schools to take the initiative to answer questions, counsel, consolidate and improve their homework, so that students' learning activities can better return to the campus, and parents' counseling problems will be gradually solved.
"This is the page introduction of the homework assigned by the Chinese teacher last Friday, the oral homework is review, the basic homework is the seventh lesson syllables and nursery rhymes, and the evaluation form is to show the evaluation, which is clear at a glance." Ms. Yu, a parent of the first grade students of Jiaxing Experimental Primary School in Zhejiang Province, said that the school recently independently developed an after-school homework declaration monitoring platform, and parents praised it. The platform not only layers homework to meet the individual needs of students, but also opens up to parents simultaneously. She now only needs to click on the platform's parent page to keep abreast of class assignments and homework requirements.
Teachers are comfortable
Physical and mental stress is reduced, and humanistic care is more
The main body of after-school services is the school, and the foothold is in the teacher. In the implementation of the "double reduction", how to effectively mobilize the enthusiasm of teachers?
"Thinking that for the healthy growth of each student and relieving parents' worries, our hearts are always sweet." In the after-school service, 12 teachers of the art group of Tianjin No. 80 Middle School "do not wait for the whip to work hard", and have joined the team of after-school service, who have carried out Chinese painting, calligraphy, paper-cutting activities and printmaking, oil painting, watercolor painting, subtle sketching and other professional aesthetic education activities that promote China's excellent traditional culture, which are well received by students and parents.
After the "double reduction" policy was implemented, the after-school custody in the primary school was delayed, the junior high school opened evening self-study and Saturday campus resources were opened to students, and the working hours of teachers became invisibly longer. Many schools in Ningbo have explored the introduction of a "no-reason transfer" system for primary and secondary school teachers to participate in after-school services to alleviate the physical and mental pressure of teachers.
"'No reason to take a break' is very humane, allowing us to deal with our own affairs while doing a good job." Yu Dansheng, a mathematics teacher at Tangxi Middle School in Yinzhou District, Ningbo, enjoyed the convenience of "no reason to take a break" last month because he participated in the activities of his children's class.
Zhang Chunxiao, principal of Tangxi Middle School, believes that before the school introduces any measures, it must listen to the voice of the teacher and let the front-line teachers be the commander. Recently, the school plans to add a faculty activity room on campus, and the division of functional areas, the purchase of equipment, and the design of locker rooms all solicit opinions from teachers to implement the details.
"Flexible working system", "No reason to take a break", "Listening to the voice of the teacher"... In order to protect the rights of teachers, a series of humane measures for teachers are being introduced.
