First, optimize the combination and build a team.
The collocation of players mainly adopts complementary combination. Tell the students the principle first: Match the students with excellent academic performance and behavior habits, the average students and the temporarily backward students, with 6 to 8 students in each group, and the male and female collocation should be reasonable. For example, combine naughty and poor self-control students with steady and strong self-control students; Combine class cadres with non-class cadres; Set introverted, timid and outgoing, lively personality in one. Let the students make a preliminary grouping first, and then the teacher makes a comprehensive adjustment to balance the abilities of each group. This constitutes a homogeneous group with strong and weak collocation, complementary personality and similar basic situation. On the one hand, students at different levels can influence each other, help each other, unite and cooperate and make progress together; On the other hand, it is also conducive to equal competition among groups.
Then ask the students to discuss the group name and slogan of their group, and ask the group name to have connotation and the slogan to have characteristics. This is the first cooperation in the group. Through the consultation of all members of the group, we have our own unique group name and inspiring slogan. Fully mobilize students' internal drive and stimulate their enthusiasm for participation.
Second, elect the team leader and compete for posts.
The group leader is the core of the group, and a good group leader can bring out a good group. The team leader must be capable, caring, patient and responsible. Let the students sign up for the competition, first give a speech and talk about their own ideas, then all the students vote to determine the candidates, and the teacher will put forward corresponding opinions in due course. Each group has a team leader and two deputy team leaders, as well as branch representatives. The team leader is responsible for learning, the deputy team leader is responsible for discipline and hygiene respectively, and the class representative is responsible for organizing undergraduate activities. Each team leader has his/her own responsibilities, and registers the group situation of the day in the group self-evaluation book. Then sum up, select the team members who performed well that day and those who need improvement, and reflect on the work of the team that day. The team leader can not only shoulder the heavy responsibility, but also have certain organizational power, appeal and exemplary role, and can clearly express his thoughts and form a United and enterprising group.
Third, improve training and release while helping.
The key to the success of curriculum reform lies in training, that is, the training of team leaders and team members, which is a long-term process that truly embodies the new curriculum reform. Because in cooperative learning, the group leader is the soul of group activities, not only the leader of group activities, but also the organizer of group activities and the teacher's little assistant, and the group leader plays an important role in group cooperative learning. The head teacher must be patient and meticulous. We should always pay attention to students' ideological trends and solve problems in time when they are found.
The content of the training team leader has four aspects: first, clear responsibilities; The second is the ability of organization and coordination; The third is management ability; The fourth is self-control.
Ability of organization and coordination. A group of 6-8 people will have problems if it is not well organized, and it is easy to cause trouble if it is not well coordinated. Hold regular meetings of group leaders, listen to their opinions and ideas, let them speak freely and inspire each other, so that the group they lead has a certain * * * and distinctive personality. Promote communication, summary, reflection and improvement among groups. At the same time, understand their difficulties in thought, study and life and solve them in time, and affirm, praise and motivate them in time. And tell them the specific methods and measures, and give them to everyone as detailed as possible, such as the study group in the classroom. The team leader should divide the work according to the different characteristics of the team members, that is, let a good speaker act as the moderator, copy the blackboard that can write, learn to show the topic well, be timid and responsible for supplementing, correct mistakes seriously, scrub the blackboard diligently, be responsible for discipline supervision with a strong sense of responsibility, and let everyone be in charge, so that everyone has something to do and do his best.
Management ability. When the team leader first took office, he was often in a hurry because of his inexperience. In view of this situation, the class teacher should encourage and control him in time, so that the group leader can learn the basic process of management: planning-layout-inspection-comment-summary. Plan your work every day. Only when you have a goal can you act and firmly grasp the initiative. If you have a plan, you must implement it and implement the task arrangement to everyone. (including group cooperation, exhibition and communication, duty, participation in activities, etc. ) after the layout, we have to ignore it, check it, find problems and coordinate to solve them. Communicate with team members in time every day. In addition, the team leader should care about and care for the team members, communicate with the team members to understand their voices, be their intimate friends, pay attention to the work style, be not simple and rude, pay attention to the work attitude, be cautious, constantly reflect on the work, often communicate with the monitor, communicate with the class teacher and classroom teacher, learn with an open mind, and constantly improve, so as to become a powerful manager and a veritable CEO in the group.
Self-control If you can't do it, you can. If you don't do it, you can't do it. The team leader is required to strengthen his self-cultivation, strictly abide by the class rules, consciously restrain himself, be a model of learning, a master of management, and set an example for team members everywhere. In this way, doing a good job in group work can be handy.
Carrying out colorful activities in the class has enhanced students' self-confidence. Through the theme class meeting, school sports meeting, American essay recitation and gymnastics competition, the class cohesion and sense of honor are greatly enhanced, and the students' self-confidence is also enhanced. Students are bolder, louder and more confident.
After taking over a new class and training for a period of time, the head teacher should not do everything by himself, but let each team leader learn to manage independently and innovate in practice. Encourage each group to manage independently and formulate rules and regulations democratically. For example, how to give our group a resounding name, which must inspire our group in some way. How to make up a loud slogan according to the group name and shout it out in class and group meetings to enhance team awareness? How to determine the goal of the group? How to help students with learning difficulties? How to change the backward appearance of the group? How to improve students' learning enthusiasm? How to change the phenomenon of not talking in class? How to live without chaos in class? Facts have proved that as long as teachers trust students and give them opportunities to show themselves, students' potential and wisdom will be fully exerted. The teacher showed them the way in teaching and then guided them forward. Don't be afraid of them falling, and don't worry about thorns stabbing their skin on the road. How can they see the rainbow without experiencing wind and rain? Frustration is also a kind of wealth. When they get up after falling, they will walk better. Group leader is a crucial figure in group construction, and the quality of group leader is directly related to the success or failure of group construction. In fact, the really good group leader is not elected or born, but cultivated by the teacher. People often only pay attention to the existing ability of team leaders, but ignore the development and cultivation of human potential.
The group was established, the table was drawn, the distance between students was shortened, and the discussion was active. Under this new learning form, how to keep team members in good condition? When training team members, please pay attention to the following questions:
First of all, training should be open to all. The famous Soviet educator Suhomlinski said: "While educating the collective, we should see every member of the collective and his unique spiritual world, and we should educate every student with great care." In the new curriculum classroom, we should face all the students and let every student participate, which requires group learning to cooperate. You can arrange who is in charge, who records the results, who reports and so on in the group. In the next communication, let each team member have a chance to exercise and show.
Second, we should do three kinds of teaching in training. First, teach students to answer. As a teacher, what is the most distressing thing in class? Maybe students don't cooperate with teachers and answer questions actively, which should be the biggest distress. We should try our best to avoid such distress and teach students effective methods. For example, say "I think it is …" and "Our group's opinion is …" before answering questions formally, so that students can naturally express their ideas or the results of group discussion clearly. Second, teach students to evaluate. In the new curriculum reform, evaluation is not only the responsibility of teachers, but also the master of evaluation, which shows that students are the masters of learning. Third, teach students to listen. Being good at listening is one of the essential qualities of modern people, which embodies the respect for the speaker and is of great significance to students. Paying attention to the cultivation of students' oral ability while ignoring the cultivation of students' listening ability will lead to students' low learning efficiency, which violates the principle of national education and is not conducive to developing good study habits and team spirit. When listening to the classmates' speeches, let the students look at their faces and be single-minded. If the classmate's answer is consistent with his own idea, he will smile and nod his head in agreement. If the classmate's speech is wonderful, you can also give applause. Let the students understand that listening to others is not just "excitement", but listening with questions or purposes. Think while listening to others' reading or answering, so that students will listen and think more deeply. On the basis of listening carefully to other people's opinions, we can analyze and judge, inspire each other, and have a collision of ideas in listening, so that the classroom shines with sparks of wisdom.
Fourth, summarize in time and constantly reflect.
Rousseau, a famous French philosopher and educator, said: "I think the most useful and incomplete knowledge of human beings is the knowledge about' people'." Rousseau profoundly emphasized the importance and necessity of fully understanding himself as a human being from the perspective of philosophy.
Only by constantly summing up and reflecting can we constantly improve, grow and progress. Use the class meeting class every week to summarize the performance of each group last week and some time ago. Every week, the outstanding groups come to the stage to introduce their experiences, and the backward groups come to the stage to reflect. In this way, the members of the excellent group are more United and have higher interest in learning. Backward groups constantly reflect, find ways and try to change the backward status quo. The class has formed a competitive atmosphere in which you chase after me, strive for perfection and be brave in innovation.
Group management cultivates students' self-management ability, exercises students' sense of cooperation, enhances students' sense of collective honor, improves students' interest in learning and reduces the management burden of class teachers.
In a word, group building is very important in the new curriculum reform. Only when all the children in the group can listen, speak and practice can the teaching concept of the new curriculum be truly implemented.
