The following are some experiences in the process of training young teachers in our school:
First, the basic skills that a math teacher should have
The new curriculum standard has not only changed a lot in educational concept, teaching objectives, teaching content, teaching mode and evaluation, but also clearly expounded the essence of mathematics teaching, the basic requirements of mathematics teaching and the role of mathematics teachers. These undoubtedly put forward higher requirements for math teachers, especially for new math teachers who have just entered the profession. In order to understand thoroughly, teach each class well and improve the teaching effect, we must pay attention to practicing basic skills.
1 Master the basic concepts of the new curriculum
New teachers should first fully understand the requirements of the new curriculum standards. In view of this, the leaders of our school organized young mathematics teachers to carry out mathematics teaching and research activities in time at the beginning of the semester, and earnestly studied the new mathematics curriculum standards. I know that the overall goal highlights the reform direction and target value orientation of cultivating students' innovative spirit and practical ability. Mathematics has changed from focusing on two foundations to four foundations: basic knowledge, basic skills, basic ideas and basic activity experience. Two abilities change into four abilities: to cultivate students' ability to find, ask, analyze and solve problems. At the same time, it is recognized that mathematics education is popular mathematics and should be oriented to all students. The goal of mathematics curriculum is that every student with normal physical and mental development can learn well, so learning mathematics well is the right of every student. Therefore, the new curriculum standard takes the values of students' development as the core, and if we grasp this point, we will grasp the root and find the right direction. Teachers only have students in mind, and students are everything to teachers, so that they can think about their urgent needs and teach their needs.
Through this teaching and research, young teachers have a comprehensive understanding of the new curriculum standards, so that they can grasp the basic teaching direction in teaching, make students develop healthily and continuously, and achieve the goal of quality education.
Ability to learn, understand and activate textbooks.
Textbooks are important resources for teaching and selected materials for students to learn. In mathematics teaching, teachers should be good at using teaching materials flexibly and effectively, which requires mathematics teachers not only to understand the teaching materials, but also to study the teaching materials, pay attention to analyze the key points of each class, what kind of learning effect to achieve, what are the difficulties of students and how to solve them. And we should also consider the position and role of this part in the whole mathematics teaching, as well as the differences and connections between the knowledge before and after. Otherwise, the key points are not prominent, the difficulties are not solved, and the key points cannot be grasped, and teaching will never achieve the expected purpose. In this regard, our school organizes math teachers to prepare lessons collectively, and young teachers put forward their own opinions, communicate with old teachers and learn from their opinions to encourage each other.
The ability to organize teaching.
The so-called organizational teaching includes the preparation of lesson plans before class, that is, how to start a class, how to introduce new lessons, how to explain new lessons, how to ask questions and so on. And organizing teaching also includes the ability of classroom teaching, that is, the ability to put the lesson plans drawn up in the process of preparing lessons into practice. In a sense, this is a more important basic skill.
In this regard, the training of young math teachers in our school is carried out from the following aspects. First, ask them to write detailed lesson plans in advance, because in the process of writing, they can enhance their memory and impression, and at the same time feel the deficiency of a certain link and correct it in time. In order to enable them to write qualified lesson plans, the school has given model lesson plans for young teachers' reference. After writing the lesson plan, it seeks the opinions of the old teachers to revise it, so as to make the lesson plan more complete and achieve the goal of striving for good lessons. At the same time, each young teacher is required to listen to the old teacher's class for 20 hours every semester, and the old teacher listens to the young teacher 15 class and gives guidance after class.
In the process of classroom teaching, unexpected events occasionally occur, which makes the original teaching plan unable to be fully implemented or implemented. Then the teacher's ability to deal with emergencies in class is also a test of the teacher's ability to organize teaching. Some students have novel ideas, and their solutions to some topics are novel and unique. At this time, the teacher should give affirmation in time, so as to fully mobilize the students' thinking enthusiasm. On the other hand, if the teacher denies or stifles students' novel ideas, the effect is not good. Of course, this is not only related to teachers' basic knowledge level, but also related to teachers' basic skills of organizing teaching, especially young teachers, who should pay special attention to the cultivation of organizing teaching ability. In view of this, our school organizes young teachers to watch the video lessons of excellent teachers, so that the old teachers can teach the experience and methods of dealing with emergencies in the classroom during their many years of teaching career, so that the young teachers can grow up in teaching.
The ability to inspire students to think.
Different teachers will have different effects in the same class. The key lies in whether teachers can inspire students' thinking and arouse their enthusiasm. If teachers master the ability to inspire students' thinking and are good at grasping the "inspiring factors" in textbooks to induce students to think positively, then teachers' teaching methods are flexible and changeable. When students realize the fun of learning mathematics, they will take the initiative to study, study happily and study tirelessly. This is called heuristic teaching. In view of the fact that young teachers are close to students in age and active in thinking, and will not be influenced by the traditional teaching mode, the school has introduced a new teaching mode: group activity teaching. Use a variety of methods to stimulate students' interest in learning and achieve the goal of popularizing mathematics.
Good mathematical language skills.
In middle school mathematics teaching, teachers are required to express their ideas clearly, accurately, popularly and vividly when describing concepts or making logical reasoning, so that teachers' own language can become a model for students to learn. Therefore, language expression ability has become a very important basic skill. In this regard, the school requires young math teachers to write teaching reflections while listening to old teachers' lectures, so as to improve their mathematical language expression ability.
6 the ability to summarize in class
Classroom teaching is an art, and it is even more an art to know how to summarize in time. "Making baskets, focusing on ending", a good class summary design can arouse students' thinking climax and produce the effect of making the finishing point, endless aftertaste and enlightening wisdom. Classroom summary is an important part of classroom teaching, which can not only help students master knowledge and skills. It can also promote the formation of cognitive structure, the establishment of new knowledge modules, the optimization of problem-solving skills and the refinement of thinking methods. It is an important factor to improve the effectiveness of classroom teaching whether classroom summary can be carried out properly and give full play to the role of summary.
Of course, the basic skills of mathematics teachers are far more than the above aspects, but they are more closely related to improving teaching quality. Teachers, especially new mathematics teachers, should strengthen basic skills training in teaching practice and strive to overcome their own shortcomings, so as to better serve education and teaching.
Second, ways to improve the basic skills of new teachers in mathematics teaching
The new math teacher is not as skilled as the old teacher in teaching business in many aspects, and his basic skills are solid. Therefore, new teachers should actively seek various ways to improve their basic teaching skills:
1 Teaching practice, self-study.
This is a training method based on self-education and the main channel of basic skills training. According to the general requirements of the new "Teaching Plan" for mathematics teaching, teachers make clear training plans, start with weak links, and purposefully enhance their self-teaching skills in teaching practice, so that the basic level and teaching effect can be effectively improved.
2 guidance to promote training.
The training of basic skills should not only have independent personality, but also have interactive groups. New math teachers can take the way of bringing new ones with old ones and learning from each other's strengths.
(1) Set "Master and Apprentice". The school selected a "master" with profound knowledge, high art of classroom teaching and excellent quality in all aspects for the new math teacher, and "matched" them to form a "bringing the old with the new".
(2) Focus on the collective preparation of lessons by the teaching and research group, and let all the old teachers care for the young teachers. For new mathematics teachers, we should rely on the strength of mathematics teaching and research group, insist on preparing lessons collectively, and expand the learning scope of young teachers, because each teacher has his own strengths and weaknesses, and everyone is a mentor, teaching and learning from each other, exerting collective wisdom and improving together.
Schools should provide a good platform for the growth of new mathematics teachers.
In the process of new teachers' growth, schools should shoulder the heavy responsibility of promoting the growth and development of new teachers and provide them with better charging opportunities.
(1) More lectures and more training. The school organizes young teachers to attend excellent teacher classes outside the school; The two schools send teaching and research teachers to give lectures and learn from each other, so that new teachers can broaden their thinking, learn from others and improve training efficiency.
(2) Regular training. In order to improve the basic teaching skills of new teachers, leaders at all levels of the school have made a lecture plan for new teachers, listened to new teachers on time, and given specific guidance according to their years of teaching experience, which increased the learning opportunities of new teachers, further improved the level of basic teaching skills and made up for the shortcomings of basic teaching skills.
(3) The school regularly conducts competitions and appraisals on teachers' basic teaching skills to encourage training. Make full use of competition mechanism, introduce competition appraisal into teaching basic skills training, encourage each other, create a good and warm training atmosphere, and promote the smooth development of teaching basic skills training.
Third, the conclusion:
Young teachers can't grow into excellent teachers overnight. We should make unremitting efforts for a long time, practice basic skills hard, attract students to actively participate in learning with our unique personality charm, and achieve good classroom results.
