Experience gained from inspection

Sample of survey papers (selected 14 articles)

On weekdays, there will inevitably be some new ideas in my heart, so it is very necessary to write an experience, so as to develop a good summary method. So how to write experience is appropriate? The following is a sample essay of my investigation experience (7 selected articles), which is welcome for your reference and I hope it will help you.

As a national key vocational school, in order to further strengthen education management and improve teaching quality, our school sent some teachers to xxx High School, a big city famous for its militarized management, and xxx Vocational Education Center with advanced management concepts and achievements on May 23rd. I was fortunate to be one of them, and the whole inspection process was orderly and rich in content.

The purpose of this investigation is to learn advanced management concepts. I have listened carefully to the experience of the principals in charge of education in two schools, taught specific incident handling methods, and communicated with relevant teachers, which benefited a lot. Now I will share my experience with my colleagues.

I. Introduction of experience

1, management concept of xxx middle school in xxx city

Schools have their own characteristics in management. The school implements paramilitary management, and all students from the school to the principal wear military uniforms. Strictly demand students' words and deeds according to military standards. Ask students to run in the morning every day, organize them to carry out long-term militarization training, and exercise their endurance.

2. The management concept of 2.xxx Vocational Education Center

There are two points in the management of this school that are worth learning from. First, the head teacher's management is very good. The teachers who are on duty and on duty there are not educated only by deducting points, and all the education work falls on the shoulders of the class teacher. Finally, use this score to assess the class teacher's advanced and distinguish the class teacher's fees. Secondly, from the first point of view, the burden of the class teacher is quite heavy, so compared with other teachers, the class teacher has a great advantage in the overall assessment score, that is, the basic 15 score is given first, and the lowest score is 8.

The most scores of teachers in other subjects are only 10, so relatively speaking, in the assessment of all teachers in xxx Vocational Education Center, the top teachers are basically class teachers, and priority is given to the rating of professional titles, so that the work of class teachers becomes passive and active, and the management effect can be imagined.

Second, two ideas.

1, enhance cultural heritage

If a school wants to improve and develop, it must have cultural connotation. Although we are a vocational school, we mainly study technology, but no matter what technology can not be separated from the relevant cultural knowledge, only with the knowledge in books, understand the relevant operating steps and methods, students can have significant professional development. Therefore, culture class can not be ignored, nor can it just tell jokes that students are interested in.

2, improve the management effect

A school, especially a rural vocational school, should develop well and quickly, as long as it has a strict management system and must have good grades at the same time. Once the management is out of control, the school will face destruction. As far as management is concerned, the results of active management and passive management will be very different. I hope the school leaders will strengthen their thinking in this respect, so that every faculty member can take the initiative to participate in the management of the school. I believe that the school's tomorrow will be more brilliant.

Experience from investigation: 2 xx years165438+1October 29th-30th, our math group went out to study in Guilin Gongcheng Middle School. We have made full preparations for this field trip, which has a strong purpose and obvious effect. I was deeply impressed by the excellent style of study, school spirit and teachers' professionalism in Gongcheng Middle School. The specific feelings are summarized as follows:

First of all, I would like to thank the school leaders for giving us a precious opportunity to go out and learn the management and establishment of the brother school. Gongcheng, Guilin is a Yao Autonomous County, located in the southeast of Guilin, 0/08km away from Guilin/KLOC, with a population of 280,000. Its economy is underdeveloped, but its folk customs are simple, and it respects teachers and values education. Gongcheng Middle School is a well-known county-level key middle school in Guangxi. In xx, it was rated as the first batch of demonstration high schools in Guangxi. In recent years, the college entrance examination rate has been above 20%. In recent decades, people have been admitted to Tsinghua or Peking University almost every year. At present, there are 27 people in Peking University and 24 people in Tsinghua.

2. Gongcheng people and government attach great importance to education, invest a lot of money to build Gongcheng Middle School and set up scholarships. Students admitted to Tsinghua or Peking University will be awarded 50,000 yuan at a time; Excellent senior one and senior two students are free of tuition, and they can also get a scholarship of 1 10,000 yuan or 8,000 yuan each academic year. As far as teachers are concerned, in addition to keeping people emotionally, the school has also done a good job in finding ways to help solve the housing problem and improve the work allowance. The school strengthens management and is strict with requirements. If the school requires it, you are not allowed to bring your mobile phone back to school. If found, classes will be suspended for one week.

Third, preparing lessons and teaching, we listened to the lessons of two math teachers of arts, science and mathematics respectively and exchanged experiences. Gongcheng middle school mathematics subjects are reviewed in three rounds. As for counseling materials, they only give external electronic materials to teachers, and all the test questions are adapted by teachers according to electronic materials. Teachers in Gongcheng Middle School are very dedicated, preparing lessons collectively and jointly creating an efficient classroom. Their class (45 minutes) requires students to be interested in listening, with a large capacity, which can inspire students to think. Gongcheng middle school has more time for self-study and evening self-study, such as four classes in the morning, but there are 25 minutes of self-study classes in the second and third classes, so students can complete extracurricular exercises well. Strict requirements for students, hierarchical teaching, and follow-up counseling for gifted students from the first year of high school. Candidates who stay in our school with top scores in the senior high school entrance examination will be provided with tutor counseling, and top students will provide subject counseling and psychological counseling. For example, candidates admitted to Peking University in xx (the ninth in Guangxi) will be given targeted English weak counseling in senior three, and finally get more than 80 points in the college entrance examination 1 10. In addition, they take the weekly math test once every two weeks (two hours), and usually take the weekly math test (Saturday night 1 hour) to examine all the contents, but mainly the reviewed contents.

On May 5, 2003, before leaving, Director Liu Juguang organized a mobilization meeting for xx training for junior high school teachers, talked about the hard-won training opportunities and the determination of xx education reform, and assigned three major tasks: First, complete an educational essay around the theme of high efficiency and light responsibility; The second is to run an efficient light reporting class in our school; The third is the last joint film training open class. After the meeting, I felt stressed. I came to xx with anxiety and curiosity. Now, based on what I have seen, heard and thought in the past five days, I will write this essay at four points and discuss it with my colleagues.

The first point: the teaching concept is new.

Xxxx No.2 middle school and foreign language school took the lead in bringing the class grading system into the senior high school entrance examination results and implementing the credit system. You can't graduate until you have completed the credits. The principal personally issued the graduation certificate, which greatly stimulated the students' enthusiasm and sense of honor. The diversified evaluation system allows students with learning difficulties more room to stretch, makes the school an original ecological forest, and enables children to develop in an all-round way.

Adhere to the people-oriented principle and make education become agriculture. Xx middle school strengthens quality education, implements norms, publicizes individuality and stimulates creativity. They evaluate children in a diversified and all-round way, turning each child's life into a successful and wonderful story; Turn every teacher into a happy life and an in-depth researcher.

Teaching is not teaching, learning is growth. It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish. It gives students the golden key to lifelong learning, sustainable development and lifelong happiness, and organically combines knowledge mastery with ability. Xx city has been carrying out Chinese theme courses, which is the best embodiment. According to the curriculum standards and the reality of our school, the teachers boldly integrated the teaching materials and put forward the model teaching of Chinese teaching knowledge. More importantly, they cultivate students' ability to solve problems, care for students' humanistic feelings and make a deeper interpretation of quality education. Examination is to test their character through knowledge.

"Quality as the core, characteristic development". Teaching for three years should be for the sake of students' thirty years, and teaching for six years should lay the foundation for children's life. Based on this, President Zhao Guixia of Wenguang Middle School put forward the concept of "teaching approach bridge". For example, before learning to solve application problems with equations, students should have certain ability to solve application problems. The accumulation of knowledge and experience is like a pyramid, and some students' knowledge is out of touch. This requires teachers to approach the bridge and review the construction of knowledge networks.

Strengthen Chinese reading. Take the lead in listing "reading" as a course, strictly stipulate class hours, and boldly set up "massive reading of famous books", with each student reading more than 40 books per academic year. When you walk into the campus of xx No.2 Middle School, you will find that the credits of each student in each grade of the Reading Festival are posted on the display column, and bookishness has become the best temperament of children.

Moral education is more timely. Through class culture construction, 65-kilometer walking and school-leaving education, we will combine morality, career, meritorious service and school spirit. Tear those theories that are brushed on the wall and printed on paper off the wall, approach the classroom, enter life, enter the campus and enter the hearts of children.

The "living education" in xx No.2 Middle School really came alive, took root, sprouted and thrived.

The second point: 27 1 efficient classroom.

"27 1 efficient classroom" has several meanings. The first is that in terms of learning content, 20% of knowledge can be taught by oneself, 70% of knowledge cooperatives, and 10% of knowledge teachers' church; Secondly, in terms of student composition, 20% of students are excellent students (so-called leaders), 70% are excellent students, and 10% are waiting for excellent students; The third one expounds the operation mode of 27 1 in terms of time allocation, in which 20% of the time (about 10 minutes) is spent by teachers explaining learning objectives, organizing classroom teaching, leading the classroom and encouraging guidance. 70% of the time (about 30 minutes), students cooperate in groups, show comments and expand questions. The group cooperative learning mentioned here includes five links: learning (perceptual self-study)-research (cooperative inquiry)-display (display feedback)-teaching (strengthening teaching and improvement)-classroom standards. Before group cooperative learning, students should fully preview and make effective use of the tutoring plan. Team members have a clear division of labor to ensure heterogeneity within the group and homogeneity between groups. 10% of the time (about 5 minutes) students summarize the feedback and test it in class.

27 1 There are two prerequisites for the realization of efficient classroom: first, do a good job in preparing lessons, especially the compilation of teaching plans; The second is to do a good job in league building.

Prepare lessons, dig deep into textbooks, and use textbooks to teach instead of teaching textbooks. Carefully scrutinize every teaching link and do a good job in the transition and connection of every link. Teaching material mining should closely follow the curriculum standards, reflect the requirements of the whole teaching material system, and explore the strategies and methods of carrying capacity and realizing capacity behind knowledge.

The preparation of guidance plan should respect students and pay attention to their subjective initiative, exploration, inspiration, flexibility and gradient. Of course, I think the preparation of the guidance plan should take into account the actual situation of our students, and what is suitable is the best. The counseling plan includes preview plan, inquiry plan and training plan, and each unit has review plan and unit inspection. Firstly, the three-dimensional objectives, key points and difficulties are introduced. Preview cases include instructions for use and guidance on learning methods, reading textbooks, preview self-test, my doubts, information links and other modules. The inquiry case consists of six sections: learning begins with questioning, questioning inquiry, expansion and promotion, my knowledge network, classroom test and my harvest. The training plan consists of basic consolidation questions, comprehensive application questions and extended inquiry questions. The training case must be closed within a limited time, and it will be received as soon as it is issued, approved as soon as it is received, evaluated as soon as it is approved, and changed as soon as it is evaluated.

On July 28th, we visited four middle schools in XX, where we saw beautiful campuses and scientific and standardized management. Every school has carried out classroom reform and made great efforts in effective teaching. Combined with what I have seen, heard and thought, I feel that this investigation has gained a lot. What shocked me most is that. Let me talk about my own experience and my plan for future work:

First, the harvest of the inspection

As a merged school with poor teaching conditions, average teachers and low quality students, XX Middle School has made remarkable achievements with the spirit of respecting science, challenging itself and pursuing Excellence, and with the simple and effective management strategy of "grasping routine, grasping details and grasping real process". Their practice once again confirms a truth: routines determine everything, and details determine success or failure. Doing every ordinary thing well is extraordinary. The seemingly ordinary tasks such as "efficiency of morning reading", "management of students' homework" and "management of teachers' preparing lessons" are studied in the last six middle schools to explore a new way to improve the quality of education and teaching. The successful practice of XX Middle School also proves the fact that there are no schools that can't run well, no students that can't teach well, and no teachers that can't manage well. It is impossible to run a school well and improve the quality of education and teaching without a little spirit.

In the process of practical teaching reform in XX middle school, the classroom teaching reform with "lecture notes" as the carrier, in the specific operation process:

(a) pay close attention to collective lesson preparation and formulate relevant regulations; Formulating a new model of preparing lessons with lecture notes can be summarized as "preparing lessons in advance, taking turns to prepare lessons, discussing collectively, optimizing learning plans and using them by teachers and students";

(two) the principle of using the lecture notes:

1, preview the textbook according to the contents of the lecture notes;

2. Pay attention to learning methods and rules in class for future review;

3. Sort out the lecture notes of each subject and bind them into review materials.

(3) Requirements for teachers to use "lecture notes":

1. Seriously guide students to use the "lecture notes", conduct spot checks before class, understand the learning situation, and prepare lessons again;

2. When using "lecture notes" in classroom teaching, we should strive to do the following: dare to let students explore new knowledge actively, and let students read textbooks freely; Let the students discuss the key points, difficulties and doubts; Ask questions for students to think and answer; Let students summarize the conclusion or central idea; Let students find it regularly; Let students freely construct the knowledge structure system.

3. Teaching with "lecture notes" should achieve "four essentials and four essentials": intensive speaking, intensive selection, intensive speaking and intensive criticism; What is sent must be collected, what is collected must be approved, what is approved must be evaluated, and what is evaluated must be supplemented.

XX experimental middle school put forward the teaching method of "two types of structure", which realized "teachers teach less and students learn more" and provided "tools" for students to learn actively. Every student has a piece of paper with a "knowledge tree" painted on it, which is the knowledge structure of this lesson or this unit. They carry out such classroom teaching reform in order to solve two basic problems: The first question is "What should we teach students? What purpose is achieved? " The second question is "How should we teach to make classroom teaching more effective?" When students master the "two-type structure", they will master the tools of active learning, and they will be able to learn independently, independently and efficiently, and finally realize the goal of teachers teaching less or not teaching and students learning more. Effective teaching of "three links, two lines and one core": "three links" namely "finding examples", "understanding exercises" and "examining questions"; "Second line" refers to the knowledge line (bright line) composed of teaching contents such as examples, exercises and test questions, and the method line (dark line) composed of methods to learn a certain kind of knowledge or solve a certain kind of problems. "One core" refers to the way of thinking that runs through the whole teaching process, learning a certain kind of knowledge or solving a certain kind of problems. In the teaching process of the above three links, "knowledge line" enables students to master basic knowledge, and "method line" enables students to form abilities. Teachers' teaching methods are transformed into students' learning methods, and students become "able to learn" and "happy to learn" in the process of "learning".

In short, the practice of No.3 Middle School is to be pragmatic and efficient in the teaching process, pay attention to details, do a good job in classroom efficiency and mobilize the enthusiasm of teachers and students in many ways.

Second, the next step:

1, hold a meeting of all teachers to learn the advanced experience in the investigation, form written learning materials and send them to each teacher;

2. Learn middle school "lecture notes", work hard on lesson plans, popularize the experience of experimental lesson plans in grade three, do a good job in collective lesson preparation, and implement lesson plans for grade seven and grade eight;

3. Learn from the experience of the Sixth Middle School, carry out the routine to the end, pay attention to details, grasp the process, pay attention to the effectiveness of lesson preparation, push the door to attend classes, strengthen guidance and improve classroom efficiency.

4. Drawing lessons from the experience of XX Experimental Middle School that "teachers teach less, students learn more", the teaching mode of "learning first, teaching later, reaching the standard in the classroom" was implemented in the seventh and eighth grades, and the problem of how to make classroom teaching more effective was solved in the implementation week.

In short, teaching reform is to grasp routines, and the concept of "routine management" is not outdated and will never be outdated. Grasping routines means grasping classroom efficiency. It requires us to be pragmatic, explore and follow the teaching rules, examine old problems with new thinking, solve problems with scientific means, abide by principles, optimize details, and grasp routine requirements. We keep pace with the times, understand the convention with a developmental vision, improve it with reform means, and make the conventional management form its own style and characteristics, thus greatly improving the quality of education and teaching.

Investigation experience: From May 4, 2004 to May 7, 2007, under the leadership of Zhou Wei, deputy secretary of the county party committee and county magistrate, a group of 14 members of the Youyang National Park Construction Preparatory Team made a four-day tour in Qiandongnan and Tongren areas of Guizhou, focusing on zhenyuan county, Nanhua, Dehang and Xijiang. Along the way, we learn from nervousness and laughter, and gain from communication and thinking, which can be described as a journey of learning and gaining.

First, the overall feeling

(1) The leaders have good intentions.

In the important period of rapid economic development in Youyang, as the main leader of the county government, it is a rare thing to personally lead so many people to conduct a four-day field trip, which fully reflects the importance attached by the leaders to this trip. During the inspection, the leaders asked us to see more scenic spots, learn more information, think more details and communicate more. At the same time, they taught us a lot about tourism, as well as ideas and measures for tourism development. Back in Youyang that night, we called the participants to discuss non-stop until 1 p.m. Throughout the process, the leaders interacted with everyone and expressed their opinions, which inspired everyone and improved their understanding. I'm thinking, in addition to the simple inspection tour, the leaders also want to exercise their comrades through this inspection, increase our team consciousness, enhance our comprehensive ability, and lay a solid foundation for better work in the future. This inspection is different from previous inspections in form, organization and details, and the leaders' intentions are well-intentioned.

(2) Tourism in Guizhou has developed rapidly.

In my impression, Guizhou is not a developed place. After I went there, I found that the tourism, urban construction and economic development here are far better and faster than we thought. Every place I passed shocked us. When we walked into Tongren, we were shocked by the architectural style and exquisiteness of its ethnic garden at first sight. Although I didn't stop to study it carefully, I just let the comrades appreciate the momentum of Guizhou tourism from the appearance. Zhenyuan, a small county town with a population of 60,000, has made use of its long history, culture and unique landscape to realize a game of chess in the whole county, and every household is engaged in tourism. Not only did the whole county do well, but every household made its own characteristics. Five years ago, Qianhu Miao Village in Xijiang was just an ordinary market town with outstanding Miao culture. However, in just five years, under the high starting point, high standards, corporatization and market-oriented operation in Leishan County, thousands of Miao villages in Xijiang rose overnight, completely achieving the goal of "Xijiang returns without looking at Miao". At present, the annual ticket revenue of Xijiang is close to 50 million. On the other hand, Tongren District has made use of Meng Jing's natural scenery and Buddhist status to vigorously carry out construction, management and service, which has promoted the development of several districts and counties in this area.

In many places we passed, we fully felt the importance of tourism development in these areas, and because of tourism, many national projects were implemented in these areas, which improved local production and living conditions. At the same time, the speed of construction and development in these areas is also surprising. Last year, I went to Xijiang River, and it changed a lot in half a year. It became more scale and momentum, which was amazing.

(C) Guizhou tourism development is worth learning.

Along the way, while enjoying the scenery, we are more observing their development route, studying the details of their construction, trying to find out the laws, hoping to play a reference role in our future work. Personally, I think these places have the following points worth learning.

First, there must be a long-term and practical plan to build tourism. The places we went to were all planned and planned in a unified way. Although it also experienced the stage of free development and random construction in the development process, it finally returned to the road of unified planning and construction.

Second, the tourism industry in each region should determine its own characteristics and outstanding features. In Zhenyuan, it is to use the cultural background of Qingyang Cave and the ancient county town built along the river to write articles. After passing by, passengers remember the beauty of Zhenyuan's night scene. Xijiang is based on Miao culture and writes articles on a large scale, so that other places cannot surpass the word "big" and remain invincible forever. On the other hand, Fan Jingshan took advantage of Fan Jingshan's position in Buddhism and combined with nature, which made tourists feel very happy after being there.

Experience of investigation 61211~12 I visited Binhai new area with the leaders of the delegation, and the biggest impression I got was passion. What impressed me about Binhai New Area was speed.

In recent years, people blow sand and fill the sea, and scientific development has created a modern industrial park of nearly 300 square kilometers. 65438+February 1 1 morning, the weather was cold and the north wind was cold. But the heart of our party is fiery, fiery. "The morning glow reflects the sky like fire, and the sound of the machine rumbles and surprises the gulls. Cao makes up very well. Looking at the beach, the blue sea and water connect the sky. The reclamation of Sand Blowing shocked the world, and Gong Yu returned to Taihang Mountain. This poem is the best portrayal of the moment.

"Green growth and circular economy" are the characteristics of economic development. As soon as I entered Shougang Jingtang Company, I had the most direct reaction to this sentence. The waste residue produced in the process of iron making, steel making, thermal consolidation and cold consolidation of ore is used for cement production, waste gas power generation, wastewater recovery, seawater desalination and concentrated brine. It embodies recycling, environmental protection and technology everywhere. I was shocked when I visited the hot rolling workshop of Jingtang Company, where fiery red billets were rolled into finished plates. There is no smell or dust here at all. It's completely different from the steel mills we used to feel. I am responsible for spectrometer production and implement 5s production management in the workshop. Spectrometer is called high-precision optical instrument, and it can be said that the cleanliness of hot binding workshop is no less than that of our spectrometer production workshop. This should be worth thinking about.

65438+February 1 1 The investigation we ended was straight, and the impression was that it was as high-speed as the Beijing-Tianjin high-speed railway. Two expressways connecting Beijing and Beijing and a Beijing-Tianjin high-speed railway suddenly shortened the distance between Beijing and Beijing, and the "global village" was best embodied here. The clean and efficient leadership of the Municipal Party Committee and the people's "5+2" and "white plus black" seize the opportunity to catch up desperately is the direct driving force for rapid development. Binhai New Area will surely become the leader of economic development in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Bohai Rim and North China, just like Shenzhen in the 1980s and Pudong in the 1990s. On the other hand, is the development of domestic spectrometers not bold enough or fast enough? With the development of domestic spectrometers, we stand first in domestic output and fourth in the world. The top three are old imperialist countries, which have been producing spectrometers for decades, but this is no reason for us to stop and catch our breath. Stand firm, practice basic skills hard and improve product quality. Get rid of some complacency and inferiority, show the people's "5+2" and "white plus black" enthusiasm, occupy the country and go global, and develop our spectrum cause into a leader and model of domestic instruments at an early date.

7. I was fortunate enough to participate in the exchange activities of the Shanxi Statistical Youth Learning Observation Group in Beijing. Thank you very much for providing us with such an opportunity to go out and learn and communicate, so that we can learn the most advanced experience and show our own characteristics and style. Although the study time is short, it has benefited a lot.

Through observation and study, we can realize what is advanced and what is a broader stage. More importantly, we can deeply understand the good intentions of the party group of the provincial bureau to train young cadres and train successors in the statistical cause. As a young statistical cadre at the grass-roots level, only by persisting, making constant efforts, making continuous progress and growing up as soon as possible can we live up to the expectations of party groups at all levels and truly become the successor of the statistical cause.

For young statistical cadres at the grass-roots level, the key to practicing the "three improvements" is to improve their statistical ability, and the starting point is to unite young people in a planned and organized way, unite the strength of young cadres and make common progress.

Practicing the "three improvements" means organizing grassroots youth, building a team, establishing a core, leading the scientific development of grassroots young statisticians and improving their statistical ability. Simply put, it is "having a team". Only with a sound team can we have strength. Only by having a dynamic, capable and creative leadership team can we carry out the spirit of the instructions of the superior leaders and lead the young people at the same level to keep moving forward. In order to maintain the vigorous vitality of this team and stimulate creativity.

Practicing the "three improvements" means perfecting the grass-roots youth organization system, restraining youth behavior through written system and establishing a long-term organizational restraint mechanism, which is simply "having a system". The establishment of this system is a long-term systematic project. From the entry and exit mechanism to the reward and punishment measures, from the organization of meeting activities to the way of deliberation and decision-making, the establishment of this series of systems requires continuous efforts, and the strict implementation and restraint of behaviors by the system requires strong strength and perseverance.

Practicing the "three improvements" means carrying out the theme of serving the overall situation and serving the youth, and leading the youth to carry out various and distinctive activities, which is simply "having activities". Consolidate the basic statistical quality of young people; Through the practice of statistical work and the practice of statistical system reform, improve the professional level of youth statistics; Through the enrichment and improvement of statistical knowledge, professional level, working methods and working experience, the ability of teenagers to distinguish authenticity is improved. This series of activities has improved the professional level and working ability of young statisticians, eliminated the digital deviation caused by unfamiliar business, insufficient manpower, hasty time, inadequate inspection and weak sense of responsibility, avoided the distortion of statistical data and the damage of statistical image, and escorted the scientific development of statistical undertakings.

To practice the "three improvements" is to influence young people with the power and function of example and arouse their enthusiasm for work. Simply put, it is "effective". Playing an exemplary role, enhancing cohesion and combat effectiveness, building grassroots youth organizations into the core of youth, mobilizing the strength of young statisticians through core strength, and making everyone think and work in one place are the fundamental purposes of strengthening grassroots youth organizations, uniting the strength of young statisticians scattered all over the country, and injecting greater impetus into the development of statistical science.
