How to do a good job in freshmen's entrance education?
First, the importance of freshmen's entrance education
1. Help students determine their goals in life and find the motivation to study and live again.
For the vast majority of students, it is their goal to enter the university through the college entrance examination. Entering the university means the realization of the goal, life becomes confused and learning motivation weakens, which is very dangerous for them who have just entered the university. College freshmen's entrance education can make students clear that everyone should have their own goals in life. Entering colleges and universities is only the way to achieve life goals. To achieve the goal of life, we must work harder to help students find the meaning of studying hard and working hard.
2. Freshmen's entrance education can provide scientific and systematic professional guidance to freshmen.
For freshmen, the choice of major should either follow the advice of parents, relatives and friends, or adjust the major when they enter the university. Even if you choose by yourself, you get some professional information from the internet, and your understanding of the profession is relatively one-sided. Many students don't know what this major needs to learn in college, what professional ability needs to be exercised, and what this major needs to do. This is not conducive to students to build a reasonable professional structure, and it is not conducive to future employment. Scientific and systematic professional guidance is particularly important, which can not only guide students to understand the major, clarify the training objectives of the major, study in a targeted manner and become experts, but also make students understand the significance of general education. Strengthen the cultivation of comprehensive quality while learning the prescribed courses well, and face the society and the future with stronger adaptability and greater development potential.
3. Freshmen's entrance education can give them timely transformation guidance.
Freshmen, from high school with exam-oriented education, suddenly come to colleges with comprehensive quality, and often have a lot of maladjustment. And one of the important tasks of entrance education is to help freshmen realize it? Conversion? That is, from a simple student to a social person, from a passive learning style to an independent inquiry learning style, from a one-way to a multi-directional, three-dimensional, open and innovative way of thinking. So as to help students adapt to campus life and lay a solid foundation for further development in the future.
4. Freshmen's entrance education can give freshmen systematic psychological guidance.
Freshmen have changed from a simple environment to a complex environment, and their psychology is often immature. When they encounter some problems, their psychology often fluctuates greatly, leading to countless tragedies. College freshmen's entrance education can teach them how to face life setbacks, how to resolve negative emotions, establish harmonious interpersonal relationships, cultivate strong will quality, and lay a solid foundation for further forming a correct world outlook and outlook on life.
5. Freshmen's entrance education can help students get familiar with the rules and regulations of the school.
Freshmen's entrance education can not only help students get familiar with the rules and regulations of school awards, but also make students clear about the behavioral norms of contemporary college students, thus guiding students to further form self-management consciousness.
Second, the status quo and reasons of freshmen's entrance education
Freshmen's entrance education is one of the routine tasks that freshmen must carry out every year when they enter colleges and universities. It is one of the indispensable links in educating people in colleges and universities. At present, the main contents of college freshmen's entrance education include: school history education, school discipline education, professional education, mental health education, ideal and belief education, safety education, career planning and so on. The content is rich, but the educational effect is not good, which is reflected in the unclear school discipline and regulations and the unclear professional training objectives. This makes the school's carefully prepared courses become a form, laying a hidden danger for future teaching and student management. The main reasons are as follows.
1. The entrance education cycle is short.
Freshmen in colleges and universities often enter school before formal classes, some in the first week of their enrollment, and some throughout the military training period. During this period of time, freshmen's entrance education has been going on, and students' enthusiasm for entrance has not passed. They don't pay enough attention to this and think it's none of their business. However, after a period of time, the entrance education for freshmen has ended.
2. Freshmen's entrance education is single.
Freshmen's entrance education is often conducted in the form of lectures. Teachers are the main body of the classroom and students are the objects of the classroom. A lot of theoretical knowledge is instilled in students, which lacks interaction and affects the learning effect. Moreover, some contents can not be mastered by students through one or two lectures, and need to be constantly guided in their usual study and life.
3. Freshmen's entrance education lacks a sense of hierarchy.
At present, freshmen's entrance education is often instilled in students at the same time, regardless of primary or secondary, in no particular order. For students, such a huge amount of knowledge seems to be very important and needs to be mastered urgently, so many contents are not mastered.
4. Lack of teachers and unstable educational concept.
In the entrance education, in addition to the professional introduction by the corresponding professional leaders or senior professors, most of them are the deputy secretary of the Party Committee of the college, the teachers of the Youth League Committee, the student counselors, and some of them include student cadres. The personnel are not fixed and very casual. Not only the level of teachers is uneven, but also the mobility of personnel is large, which makes the concept of running a school and the idea of professional development vary with personal understanding. This sloppy situation leads to the lack of ideas similar to the central idea in schools or colleges, and it is impossible to form cohesion.
Third, improve the ideas and methods of freshmen's entrance education.
1. Respect cognitive laws and implement long-term education.
Freshmen's entrance education should not be a short-term routine when students enter school. From entering colleges and universities to being fully familiar with colleges and universities, freshmen's professional cognition, the establishment of professional ideas, the change of learning methods and the formation of safety awareness all need a process, which may be completed in a short time. We should respect people's cognitive laws, implement long-term education, combine freshmen's entrance education with ideological and political education and the construction of study style, pay attention to anytime, anywhere and casually education, and form an educational mechanism that emphasizes theoretical education in class and correction in life.
2. Set up educational content scientifically, so that the content of freshmen's entrance education is holistic and hierarchical.
At present, the contents of freshmen's entrance education are summarized by the school staff according to the problems existing in students' entrance in the past, which has certain guiding significance for freshmen to adapt to college life. It is very necessary to carry out this work at the beginning of school. But for students, the enthusiasm for admission has not passed, and they have no feeling about what university is. At this time, students will be instilled with a lot of irrelevant theoretical knowledge. Students not only don't pay attention, but also don't sound serious. Even if they listen carefully, they don't know how to use it at this stage. We can scientifically and systematically set up the contents of freshmen's entrance education, so as to make it conform to the process of students' familiarity with the new campus, so that students can feel that the contents we explain are in line with their current living and learning conditions, and at the same time, they can feel the care of the school.
3. Innovate educational methods and establish students' dominant position in the whole educational process.
Freshmen should not be indoctrinated as simple educational objects, ignoring their subjective initiative, but should strengthen two-way communication, so that students can not only accept knowledge easily, but also forget it easily.
4. Pay attention to the cultivation of teaching staff, and constantly expand the teaching staff while improving the quality of freshmen's entrance education teachers.
Before the entrance education of freshmen, the personnel involved in the entrance education of freshmen should be trained, and the educational objectives, teaching methods and matters needing attention of each content should be clarified. At the same time, we need full mobilization and full participation. It is far from enough for freshmen's entrance education to rely solely on the efforts of front-line comrades in student work. It is a systematic project, which cannot be separated from teaching, logistics, party affairs and group work, from the exemplary role of teachers, from the attention of leaders and from the participation of students. Admission education must win the support and cooperation from all sides in order to achieve fruitful results.
