The significance of teachers ' work in the middle Vocational School for reference Lao Tzu

The work of a class teacher is always one of the important work contents in the secondary vocational school. In a secondary vocational school, the level of the overall work of the head teacher has a direct impact on the students ' education, which is related to the style of study and the quality of ethos. How to carry out the work of the class teacher in the middle school, need the accumulation of long-term practice and many aspects of learning.

As a concentrated embodiment of Lao Tzu's "Moral Sutra" contains a wealth of education and management ideas, Lao Tzu These wise thoughts spread thousands of years, become an important part of Chinese traditional culture. The dialectical study of Lao Tzu's thought can give inspiration to the work of the class teacher in the present time.

The characteristics of the work of class teacher in the secondary vocational school

(a) Special education target, high job burnout

As an educator, the teacher in charge of the secondary vocational School has both the traditional and the general "preaching, tuition, and doubts" career requirements and the difficult situation facing the special education object. Secondary vocational students and the same age of ordinary school students compared to the majority of the failure of the test, in the past in the course of learning, with unsuccessful experience, coupled with social bias in the secondary vocational education, so that many secondary vocational students have psychological, cognitive, behavioral bias, and this age is emotional fluctuations, behavior easy to go extreme youth "Reverse period" is also their outlook on life, the world view, the value of the formation of an important period of time, so the teacher in charge as their direct educators and managers, the work of the arduous nature is conceivable. In the face of the particularity of educational object, the teacher in charge of vocational school is prone to burnout and lose the confidence of the educator. Secondary vocational students generally exist in truancy, fighting, puppy love, smoking, wearing strange clothes, learning lack of self-confidence, too dependent on problems, a large part of the students are the eyes of the world "problem" teenager.

Rome, cold day, in order to rectify these problems, the teacher in charge of the secondary school has considerable patience and ability and skill to deal with all kinds of sudden problems. The head teacher sometimes pays great effort, but the result is very little. In this case, the sense of accomplishment is low, nature will have the idea of giving up in the face of difficulties.

(ii) The diversity of the role of class teacher and the heavy workload

The teacher in charge of the secondary school is not like the class teacher in the ordinary middle schools, just focus on the students ' study, the work contents of the class teacher is complex, the society, the school, the parents to the class teacher's request is many, also doomed the class teacher's work is various. On the one hand, teaching is necessary for the class teacher, but also to consider the effect of teaching and knowledge of the update, at the same time, the scientific research tasks are to be completed by each class teacher, this relates to the title, competition and other aspects of the issue; On the other hand, as a class manager, students study, life, security and other issues, all The role of the class teacher in front of the students is multi-faceted, not only imparting knowledge, skills of the teacher, but also a "parent" "mediator" "Judge" "Psychiatrist" "Security" and other roles. Do not do well, will have a negative impact on students, resulting in education and management difficulties. Because of the decline in the quality of students in recent years, many secondary vocational student is difficult to manage, students to make a little progress, the class teacher all have to pay long-term and a lot of labor.

The Enlightenment of Lao Tzu's thought on the work of class teacher in secondary vocational school

The job characteristics of the teacher in charge of the secondary vocational school should improve their self-cultivation, enhance the ability of solving problems, optimize the working methods, understand, master and control the law of vocational Education. How to do this, the following from three aspects to explain Lao Tzu's thoughts on the work of the teacher in charge of the Enlightenment.

(a) The Enlightenment of the thought of "Tao" to the regular work of the class teacher in secondary vocational school

In the light of the characteristics of job burnout, the secondary vocational class teacher must first establish confidence, with confidence in order to better work to lay a solid psychological basis, to believe that any work is a rule can be followed, the teacher in charge of the work is no exception, Lao Tzu "Tao" thought revealed the regularity of universality.

1. Tao without it, omnipresent. Lao Tzu said: "Daosh one, life two, two three, Sansheng everything." (The 42nd chapter of the "Moral sutra") means that "Tao" is the root of the creation of all things, and "Tao" is universal, just as the Zen is talking about cutting water and boiling water is the enlightenment. "Tao" really exists in the concrete, individual things, this gives the teacher in charge of the work of two enlightenment. (1) In the class teacher's work, always everywhere has the law, the key must see how to grasp the application. Don't be discouraged when you encounter difficulties, and be sure that everything is regularly followed. (2) The class teacher can not create, eliminate, change the law, but can grasp and use the law, in the work should be good at anticipating things development and change of law, grasp the trend, timely and accurate to carry out all kinds of work, so that the teacher's work smoothly and fruitful. For example, the student union has different problems when it comes to seasonal change. Temperature rise, summer heat, fight to hurt some events will be more hair, temperature drop, winter comes, fire risk will increase.

Master these laws, targeted to do a good job of preventive work, can be half-times. In short, the law is an objective existence, grasps the "Tao", also grasps the nature and the social phenomenon essence ——— The thing development change law. If a teacher in charge can understand the "Tao" in the work, grasp the objective law of the secondary vocational education, so that the class teacher in the work "to the temple material", from the general view of the special, from the inevitable look at the phenomenon, from the perspective of the whole, from the perspective of the strategically advantageous position of the students in the work of various problems, Can make the work more smoothly carried out. In the work can do such as discovering-like "with no thick into a, punishments it in the edge of the tour must have leeway," this is based on the law of accurate understanding and grasp of the basis of superb work skills.

2. Engaged in the Tao, Tao Nature. "Human law ground, earth Law Day, Heaven Law Road, Tao Nature." "(chapter 25th of the" Moral Sutra ") The Law of nature has been placed in the supremacy. Nature and nature are not meant to be said here, but to maintain a state of being true, that is, "natural" meaning, that is, the meaning of the law. "Tao" as the law, in Lao Tzu's thoughts in the place of the source of all things, "dao" ears, although not heard, the eyes can not see, but it is not to people's will for the transfer, ubiquitous operation and never stop, which requires us to carry out work to grasp the inherent inevitability of things, follow the rules of Things. Secondary vocational school head teacher to face a lot of distinct students, hope in the management process is not realistic, the actual is a lot of students difficult to do curried, at this time there are impatient mood, often want to through some high-pressure approach to manage students, but often counterproductive, counterproductive, the pressure on students, the rebound is bigger , it's getting farther away from their own management goals. At this time may borrow Lao Tzu's Law "natural" thought, Lao Tzu highly respected "nature", that as a middle-class teacher how to Law "natural"? Lao Tzu said: "Too, do not know, second, the pro-reputation of the second, fear, second, insulted." (the 17th chapter of the "Moral Sutra") is that good leaders do not force people to do things they do not like, and the worst leaders do things that make them unbearable. As a result, smart leaders are less likely to give orders, but are apt to allow ordinary people to achieve their management goals unconsciously. Of course, this kind of law "nature" is not required to give up the management of the students, let go, but the teacher in charge of the rule of law under the circumstances, so that the effects of the subtle effect of its nature, students are difficult to detect but willing to accept the method. For example, we ask students to be polite, as a class teacher can put down the "shelf", see students, active smile greeting, over time, students will do so. This method of "nature", is what we often say "with the wind into the night, moisten things quiet" natural law.

(ii) The Enlightenment of "inaction" thought on the working methods of the secondary vocational class teacher

For the work of the teacher in charge of the characteristics of a long time, people very easy to produce a hopeless mood, then try to change the passive working methods, may have unexpected effects, which can be from Lao Tzu's Thought of "inaction" to get inspiration.

1. Do not say the teachings, the benefit of inaction. Lao Tzu is very advocating "inaction" of the working methods, "inaction" is not nothing, but to grasp the law, the situation, the flexibility to deal with, and finally achieve inaction and all the ideal state. Lao Tzu said: "The world is very soft, gallop the world is very strong." No one is in the same place, and I am good at knowing nothing. Do not speak of the teachings, the benefits of inaction, the world of Hope and ". (The 42nd chapter of the "Moral Sutra") "does not speak" of the teaching, the reason is to form "inaction" of the benefits, is because "do not speak" of the work method, contains the invisible huge energy, can send out the invincible power. The inspiration of this work is: in the course of moral education of class students, not only refers to less preaching, but also more important is to set an example in front of students, do more practical work, to their own words and deeds to the students to make an example. It is often said that the power of example is infinite. The so-called "do not speak of the teaching" in the work of the teacher in charge of the job in two aspects: first, the class teacher asked the students to do things, they do, the second is the class teacher forbid students do things, they do not do. Influence the students with their own actions and lead the students forward.

Ushinski said: "The teacher's personal example, the impact on young people's mind, is any textbook, any moral motto, any punishment and reward system can not represent an educational force." ”

This is also one of the hidden educational forces in the modern educational concept. In the course of work, the class teacher should pay attention to the teaching of non-speech, this indirect, latent moral education can avoid the rebellious mentality that the dominant preaching may bring. Imitation is an important way for teenagers to get excellent quality, teachers present to students should be true personality side, seeking truth from facts, say what, so that students feel real cordial, students from enlightenment, enhance the credibility of moral education, attractiveness. Qian mu that: "The human division is the highest standard of the teacher, the person can lead by example, can do not speak of the teachings, this is called Shibiao or teachers." ”

Indeed, the teacher's personality charm is a great positive energy, which for students of the growth of the role is huge, is so-called "peach, Next from Seikei."

2. There is no cure for inaction. Lao Tzu advocated the "inaction" negation is not in line with the development of the Law of the "act", he to conform to the natural development of the law as the "inaction." As a teacher in charge of the secondary school how to do "for inaction"? (1) To achieve "good people save". "Good to save people" is to clear the "nature of my material will be useful" concept. Lao Tzu said: "Is a saint Tsuneyoshi save people, so no one abandoned, Tsuneyoshi save things, so no discards." "(" the 27th chapter of the Moral Sutra ") many secondary vocational students have a variety of problems, in the middle school stage, often by the teacher's snub, but to do an excellent class teacher, to correct the students have formed the inferiority of the psychological," a child in full of shame in the environment of growth, he learned to blame guilt; " And a child in a positive environment to grow, he learned to aspire to orientation ", any student has his merits, to be good at discovering their own shining point, and to stimulate their own self-cultivation of positive character. (2) to achieve "the diagram is difficult to its easy, for greater than its fine." (The 63rd chapter of the "Moral Sutra") in the handling of class affairs, to recognize things difficult is happening in the easy, big origins in small, education students must from think big, little start, attention to detail. A good class teacher, must be good at using the details to infect, educate and manage students. (3) To achieve "for it is not, the rule is not chaos." (64th chapter of the Moral Sutra) This paragraph fully reflects Lao Tzu's dialectical thought, and he thinks that the development of objective things has a process of quantitative change to qualitative change. This tells us the importance of preventive measure. In the secondary vocational school, a number of unexpected things happen, many of them have a precursor. For example, the change in student mood is sometimes a barometer of students ' movements, the secondary vocational students are often emotional shape in color, which requires the head teacher can watch, timely pay attention to the students ' inner changes, good communication, better things to encourage, bad things to ease, so can avoid harm, to students to point out the right direction of development. In short, "for inaction" the fundamental purpose is "all governance", to achieve "all-around", then must be from the details, prevention of awareness, do not wait until the big problem, just rush to deal with, as the Chinese medicine advocated in the "treatment of the disease, died of disease" the same.

(iii) The Enlightenment of the thought of "The good and the water" to the teachers ' accomplishment in the secondary vocational school

The professional nature of the class teacher is complicated, the level of the teacher's self-cultivation is very important for the job, if there is no good psychological quality, better ability to solve problems, it is difficult to do this job, how to do internal and external repair, Lao Tzu "On the Good if water" thought gave us a useful inspiration.

The teacher's accomplishment can directly affect the students ' outlook on life and world view. Suhomlinski said: "In education, everything is based on the personality of the teacher,...... Without an educator's direct influence on an educated person, there can be no real education of deep humanity. Only personality can affect the stereotypes and development of personality, only character can form character. ”

What kind of accomplishment should the head teacher have? The water is the material which Lao Tzu likes, "on good if water." Water benefits all things without contention, in the evil of all people, so several in the way. A good place, a good heart, and good benevolence, good faith, good governance, good energy, moving good, the husband only does not dispute, so no. (chapter eighth of the Moral Sutra) the "Seven goodness" characteristic of water is the ideal personality in Lao Tzu's mind. Lao Tzu's Thought of "on goodness and Water" enlightens us, and the teacher in charge needs to improve self-cultivation from inside and outside two.

1. Good place, good heart, and good benevolence, good faith. From the inner self-cultivation aspect, should achieve "the good place, the heart good Yuan, with the good benevolence, the word good faith". (1) "Good land" embodies the nature of the land of choice. The head teacher must have a kind of compassion sentiment, treats the student should have a good attitude, this is "The good place", does not think they are the test loser, the body inevitably has all sorts of faults, so with the tinted glasses to face them, inevitably will cause all sorts of obstacles to own work, the teacher's heart should have the good background, Observe the students with a positive attitude to discover beauty. (2) "Heart good Yuan" is about the broad realm of water. Ask us to have a deep and profound heart at work, happy and active ground on the work of all kinds of problems, in the face of the students appear in all kinds of problems, to learn to tolerate, the sea to accept hundred rivers, have capacity is big. (3) "with good benevolence" reflects the dedication of the water to nourish all things. This requires the dedication of the class teacher is silent, if only to consider the individual's get and lose, rather than the real concern of the growth of all students, it is difficult to say that a qualified teacher in charge, it is hard to really lead the students to the right direction of life, all things and no claim, it is the quality of the water noble place. (4) "Good faith" reflects the sincere and magnanimous water.

This tells us to treat students with integrity. For many secondary vocational students, the more he distrusted him, the more rebellious, and the head teacher against the dry, this situation, it is difficult to have educational effect. Lao Tzu said: "The believers, my faith, unbelief, I also believe, dxn." (The 49th chapter of the "Moral Sutra") does not choose to focus on the outstanding students in practical work, which will harm the self-esteem of other students and have a great negative impact on management and education.

2. Good governance, good energy, good deeds. From the aspect of external cultivation, the head teacher should be able to effectively improve his working ability, like water "good governance, good energy, and good time".

(1) "Governance good governance" reflects the momentum of the broad water, grasp the overall situation of tolerance. In the work of the class teacher, we should grasp the whole ability like water, and have a long-term and comprehensive consideration on the management of the class, and make effective and feasible development plan for the class students. In this process, clear the students ' development goals, inspire the morale of the students, the teacher is a class leader, to give students hope, give students a sense of mission, this is "good governance" in a secondary vocational teacher body embodiment.

(2) "Good energy" embodies the impact of water-invincible. The water seems to be weak, but actually contains the power of majestic, and all-pervasive. In order to improve their ability to work, the teacher can learn from the characteristics of water. Lao Tzu thinks "the use of the Weak Way" (40th chapter of the Moral Sutra). First, "weak like water" can make many students first put down the resistance of the head teacher, so that they in the "pro-his teacher, faith its way" on the basis of strengthening self-esteem and self-confidence, optimistic attitude towards learning, face life, thus forming a healthy personality. Secondly, "weak like water" also embodies a toughness, a "stones" of the perseverance of the tenacity. This kind of tenacity must run through the whole work of the teacher in charge. This kind of with softness work method is the performance of "Good energy" of the class teacher.

(3) The "Dynamic good" embodies the ability of water to change to qualitative change. This requires the teacher-in-charge should be guided by the direction of the development of students ' ideas, second, to be good at discovering the students ' shining light to carry forward, three is to be guided by the time and space conditions of the development of things. In general, the head teacher should have the acuity of capturing the best educational opportunity, can lead the education in time to the student, this often will have the unexpected effect, is so-called "good Rain knows the season, when spring is happening".

Lao Tzu's thoughts spread through the ages, there is still no lack of universal value, its "Tao" "Inaction" and "good if water" the core of the idea is to establish a harmonious inner spirit and external behavior. Lao Tzu realizes his humanistic solicitude from the inside and out, expresses the ultimate pursuit of good, which has an important enlightening significance to the work of the class teacher in the present time. Of course, Lao Tzu's thoughts Focus on the philosophical significance of the exposition, which requires us to practice the level of their ideas and practical operational aspects of a good combination, so as to maximize the effectiveness of the teacher's moral education and management.
